Chapter 154 Lobey’s Past (3k)
In the morning, the warm sunlight hit Su Jiu’s face. She slowly revealed her dead fish eyes and glanced at Yun Xi, who was snuggling her with shallow breaths, feeling a bit helpless:
“Your sleeping posture is the same as Little White’s. Am I just that suitable to be a cuddle pillow?”
She wanted to get up but found her left thigh pinned by another leg. A warmth transmitted through her pajama pants, and Su Jiu instinctively reached down to feel…
A delicate touch met her fingertips, and Su Jiu instantly became wide awake. Her expression stiffened, and as if seeing a ghost, she whispered, “You’re not wearing anything? Damn it, where are the pajama pants I gave you?”
She had actually known for a long time that she would like girls in this life, especially since she’d been dreaming about making that silly girl meow recently… That’s why Su Jiu had been cautious when choosing rooms before, in case she “did something” to another girl, it would truly be a sin.
“Mmm~” A sound like a kitten waking up came to Su Jiu’s ears.
“Uh… I need to go to the bathroom.”
Yun Xi slowly opened her eyes, and the next moment, as if sensing Su Jiu stroking her thigh, her voice first let out an urgent “Uh,” then softened.
A blush suddenly appeared on her face, and she quickly released Su Jiu’s arm but didn’t stop Su Jiu’s hand…
Su Jiu thought she had made the other party uncomfortable with her actions, and her old face flushed. She withdrew her hand as if escaping and closed her eyes, turning her head to point at the suitcase, saying softly, “Your clothes are over there. Don’t walk around in just underwear, you’re a girl.”
“Okay, I know, Sister Jiu.”
Yun Xi looked at Su Jiu’s virtuous demeanor, her small mouth pouting with a hint of foxy charm. Her gaze fell on Su Jiu’s scattered suitcase, and she took out a white JK uniform and stockings to put on.
As if discovering something else, she then asked, “Sister Jiu, this embroidered outfit is at the very bottom. Aren’t you going to wear it?”
“Oh, that’s an alchemical item, but it’s broken, so I haven’t worn it.”
Seeing her obediently put on clothes, Su Jiu replied casually, her gaze falling on the phone that was constantly flashing by the bedside. She opened the message and saw that the Lobey family had sent a message:
[Our family members have arrived and are at the Lake Cafe.]
“Ah? An alchemical item, but it looks like it fits you very well, Sister Jiu. Are you really not going to try it on?”
Yun Xi finished dressing, climbed onto the bed with the rose JK, and looked at Su Jiu with hopeful, blinking light red eyes.
Yun Xi’s appearance was already top-tier. After putting on Su Jiu’s uniform and slightly changing her hairstyle to a messy, shoulder-length look, her youthful charm and a strange allure stimulated Su Jiu’s senses.
This gave Su Jiu the illusion of returning to high school and being confessed to by a junior schoolmate.
Although she was currently in high school…
Su Jiu agreed to her request. Now, two similar figures were completely transformed into sisters. After getting ready and washing up, they checked out and walked towards the location provided.
Yun Xi followed behind Su Jiu like a small pendant, humming an unknown foreign tune.
Soon, the two arrived under a sun umbrella cafe and met the people they were waiting for. The three—two men and one woman—were all uniformly American white, dressed in common trendy clothing.
One of the young men had yellow hair and wore a cowboy hat, his body a mass of muscles like a small bull. He looked at Su Jiu and Yun Xi, raised an eyebrow, and questioned in fluent English, “Why are only you two here? Where is Lord Lu? This incident might involve blood clans, and it’s not something you can handle!”
“He’s in closed-door cultivation, and the Sword God’s oath is upon me, so I came. Isn’t that normal?”
Hearing the other party’s condescending tone, Su Jiu replied indifferently, not giving him a good look either. “Besides, your family has already been informed that only I am coming. Didn’t your superiors tell you?”
“Bullshit, you little brat, you probably haven’t even reached my strength! And you’re bringing a dead weight. Forget it.” John looked at Yun Xi behind Su Jiu, his face growing even more displeased.
“John, don’t cause trouble!”
At this moment, a short, slightly plump bald young man nudged the youth in front of him, quickly acting as a mediator and saying with a smile:
“What’s there to argue about? Miss Su Jiu is here to help, and as for strength, having an advanced stage warrior is enough.
After all, we need to rely on the Sword God family’s keen senses to investigate this matter, and it’s said that the Sword God family understands sub-humans like vampires and monsters very well.”
Hearing this, Su Jiu simply ignored the burly youth and turned her gaze to the bald youth, asking with some confusion, “Investigate this matter? But weren’t we supposed to be competing for treasure within the family before?”
She was a fake, where would she get keen senses? She only knew how to kill.
The bald youth glanced around and noticed many people who looked like corpse demons watching them. He then stood up and whispered to Su Jiu, “Let’s talk in the car. This matter might involve a Blood Clan Earl.”
Su Jiu nodded slightly. As long as they were willing to pay the magic crystals, everything else was negotiable. An Earl, who had lived for a long time… could potentially be a Battle King Level existence. No wonder that傻大个 had been so upset before.
Glancing at Yun Xi, who was fiddling with her fingers like a little girl, Su Jiu felt that Yun Xi had looked at her just now, but it was probably an illusion.
Su Jiu and Yun Xi followed the bald youth and soon arrived next to a four-seater black supercar. Seeing that there was only one seat left, she apologetically said to Yun Xi, “There’s no space. Little Xi, you’ll have to sit on my lap.”
“Ah? Sister Jiu, that’s so embarrassing…” Yun Xi lowered her head, her face slightly flushed. Just as Su Jiu was about to say she could sit on the trunk.
She suddenly looked up and said shyly, “How about… Sister Jiu, you sit on my lap?”
Su Jiu: ???
You’re acting weird!
Looking at her innocent and pure face, Su Jiu felt that she was being too suspicious. After all, not everyone liked girls like herself.
It was probably just simple shyness.
She then nodded helplessly. It didn’t matter, she was light anyway. Although she didn’t know if Yun Xi had awakened, vampires weren’t ordinary people, so sitting for a while wouldn’t hurt.
…
Su Jiu also got in, and the car soon started. Yun Xi’s thighs were quite fleshy, so it didn’t feel uncomfortable to sit on, but being hugged around the waist, and with someone’s thighs passing between her own legs, it was a bit strange.
After composing herself slightly, Su Jiu focused her gaze on the bald man in the front passenger seat and said softly, “Can you tell me about this incident now?”
The bald man in the front passenger seat smiled and began to narrate, “This matter is related to a treasure from the Lobey family long ago. The Lobey family was once glorious, and even had figures who reached the War God Level earlier than your Sword God family. In that era, everyone jointly resisted the Others, and the High-Class Blood Clan and Humans were on the same front.”
The bald man paused, then turned and pointed to the light gray, wavy-haired woman next to Su Jiu, continuing, “Laura’s ancestor met a Blood Clan Marquis, and they quickly fell in love. A year later, a half-human baby was born. This matter spread throughout the entire top society at the time, but due to the existing alliance, the Lobey family had to put this matter aside.”
“Sixteen years later, the Others were repelled to the other side of the deep sea, and the baby from that year had grown into a young girl. The Marquis seemed to have suffered an irreversible injury and wanted to pass on the Initial Embrace of Life of the Blood Clan to the girl.”
Su Jiu was stunned for a moment, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she whispered, “Otherworldly War…”
Whether the Others were demonized humans or another race, she had only read a small part of the novel, and the mobile app didn’t provide detailed information. The Others and the Ancient God Sect might be related. That “Master” from that day resembled the Others in the novel…
The bald man glanced at Su Jiu and continued, “But how glorious the Lobey family was back then! They couldn’t allow one of their family members to be a complete demon. Using some excuse, they carved the initial embrace onto an alchemical artifact and entrusted it to a member of a branch family, who has been lost for hundreds of years.”
“Until now—this secret was leaked, causing the Lobey family to be targeted by many blood clans. Even an underground king, Count Sam, has his sights on it, and we truly have no way out, so we had to invite the Sword God family, who are also familiar with blood clans, to come.”
This baffled Su Jiu. If they said they understood sword techniques, she could understand, but why were they familiar with blood clans? She asked with some confusion, “Why is the Sword God family also familiar with blood clans?”
At this moment, the wavy-haired woman next to Su Jiu suddenly spoke, her eyes carrying a hint of a smile, “You inherited it later, right? Back in the day, your family had two heroes who reached the top War God level: Sword God Yun Xin and Blood Duke Yun Huan!”
“Blood Duke… Ah!”
Just as Su Jiu was about to say something, she felt a gentle push from behind, causing her to lean back. Her cheek was accidentally kissed by Yun Xi behind her, a slight wetness like being brushed by a kitten.
“Ah, sorry, Sister Jiu, I was startled when I heard Blood…”
Yun Xi hugged Su Jiu like a large stuffed animal, resting her chin gently on Su Jiu’s shoulder. The warm breath from her words tickled Su Jiu’s face, making her feel a little flustered.
Smelling the slightly floral breath, Su Jiu found it strange. Logically speaking, no matter how much she brushed her teeth, her mouth should have a fishy smell since she drank blood for a long time.
But Su Jiu quickly decided it didn’t matter. She would raise her as a little sister anyway, and it was good that she was clean.
Feeling the softness behind her, Su Jiu perked up and asked quite seriously, “Then, as the Sword God’s representative here, what do I need to do to receive the agreed-upon thirty intermediate magic crystals.”
Intermediate magic crystals were dropped by high-ranking War General level monsters to Battle King level monsters. For Su Jiu, this was a huge sum of wealth that could rapidly increase her strength!
“It’s very simple. Follow us to explore the abandoned ancient mansion of our family and use your Sword God family’s unique understanding of blood clans to find that thing.” The wavy-haired woman smiled, as if she was determined to get that alchemical artifact.
