The vampire queen, who was savoring fresh blood, suddenly sensed something. Her sharp gaze swept towards a corner, and she coldly asked, "Who's there!"
As the words fell, she hurled the goblet in her hand towards the corner.
"Heh~"
Ming Li, whose figure was hidden in the corner, raised an eyebrow. She dodged the goblet thrown at her and stepped out from the shadows, her voice tinged with amusement, "Who do you think I am?"
Meeting those beautiful, half-smiling eyes, the vampire queen paused, feeling a sense of familiarity with them but unable to pinpoint why. She instinctively asked, "Who are you?"
Ming Li's lips curved, revealing two sharp fangs. "My dear mother, you truly are forgetful. Have you forgotten me so soon?"
The vampire queen frowned, something flashing rapidly in her mind. After a while, she finally spoke, "Bru Li?"
Vampires possess special physiologies, and blood relatives share a unique attraction. As long as they are not too far apart, they can sense each other. Thus, at this moment, the vampire queen's gaze shifted, but it quickly returned to normal.
Seeing Ming Li remain silent, the vampire queen narrowed her eyes, a faint curve appearing at the corner of her lips. Her smile was as fake as it could possibly be. "You've grown so much? As expected of my daughter."
Ming Li’s lips twitched. "You're so shameless, you'd climb a pole if I gave you a bamboo stalk..."
Sensing the oddity in Ming Li's gaze, the vampire queen raised an eyebrow and instantly put on a benevolent facade, starting to spout nonsense with a serious expression. "Li'er, after you were lost back then, I was very worried. I even sent people to search for you for a long time, but to no avail. I was extremely concerned."
Ming Li: "..." Hmph. All talk and no substance.
Having witnessed the scene from a God's eye view, Ming Li smiled with profound meaning.
The original host was abandoned by the vampire queen herself. The reason for discarding her was not mentioned in the original plot, and Ming Li did not know why. But the vampire queen’s claim of her being lost here was a bit too much…
Without further ado, Ming Li, who advocated for the beauty of violence, would rather act than speak. She directly pulled out her large iron hammer and attacked.
When the cold iron hammer pressed against her forehead, the vampire queen still couldn't believe it. Upon reacting, a flicker of jealousy and killing intent flashed in her eyes. Thoughts swirled in her mind, and a memory surfaced.
When she had first become the vampire queen, the clan’s witch had uttered a prophecy: "This woman is not the chosen one, but she will have a child with a lotus mark on the right shoulder..."
The witch didn't have time to finish speaking before she died, as the queen, enraged, snapped her neck.
She still remembered the witch’s shocked eyes as she died, her pupils, unable to close in death, reflecting her own furious and ferocious face.
Later, as the witch had predicted, one of her children indeed bore a dark red lotus mark on their shoulder. Her feelings at the time were extremely complex. Fearing that everything the witch had said would come true, she had ordered her young daughter to be sealed in a place of extreme Yin. She never expected her to escape…
With that thought, the vampire queen narrowed her eyes dangerously, suddenly let out a laugh, and said to Ming Li, "Li'er, what are you doing?"
Ming Li's voice was icy as she voiced the original host’s unspoken question, "Why did you abandon me?"
