Chapter 104: The Reappearance of the Moon's Eye

1986, December 17.

Hospital, intensive care unit.

On the white corridor outside the ward, Hong Yin Ye looked in surprise at the person sitting by his bed; outside the window, the maple leaves had turned deep crimson, and the severe cold had begun to show.

"I never expected it to be you who saved me; it's really been a long time, Jiang Xia."

Hong Yin Ye let out a sigh; the feeling of pain, as if from hell, seemed to spread across her body—pain, despair, insignificance—her body gradually turning cold and powerless.

That feeling is too cruel; even recalling it will involuntarily bring discomfort and fear from the heart.

"I didn't save you; don't get the wrong idea. I merely notified your relatives to have them bring your half-dead self out."

The huge blue light from the sudden illumination of this sunless underground cavern caused the rock walls to collapse completely; it was a gigantic eyeball suddenly opening that caused it, its gaze lighting up this place.

A heaven-shaking, earth-shaking boom erupted from above; the attack struck the rock wall, instantly piercing it, releasing all its force, fire scattering everywhere.

She remembered that Yabianfu San Shi should now be in Delan Castle; how could it be here?

"This is your son, from the future twenty-two years from now." Jiang Xia said,

Meanwhile, inside the underground cavern, countless tooth blood vampires like statues standing in the square began to awaken; under the Moon's Eye's illumination, all the slumbering tooth blood vampires let out a deafening roar.

That enormous eyeball began to shrink under the golden power, and behind it extended countless black-root-like tentacles, constantly waving in the air.

Compared to the tooth blood vampires, it resembled more a devil come from hell to the human world.

"Because the name Hong Du is what I prepared for my future child, and Yin Ye's child."

The giant eye emitting blue light shrank slightly; the surrounding animals simultaneously raised their heads, standing straight, like a uniformly placed pencil standing on a desk.

The thick rock wall began to tremble; cracks spread from top to bottom in all directions, the whole cavern a network of fissures, stones began to fall, dust filling the entire space.

Meanwhile, the humanoid tooth blood vampires all knelt on one knee, awaiting the Moon's Eye's final command.

"Surname Red?" Hong Yin Ye keenly noticed this, but in his memory the word 'relatives' was a vague existence; just then, the ward's door was gently pushed open.

"Nice to meet you, father." Hong Du gave a shy greeting.

"How is Xiao Du doing in the future?" Zhen Ye asked.

It's obvious that, at this moment, Hong Yin Ye has at most seven or eight years of life left without any external interference, and this is the best-case scenario.

"Zhen Ye doesn't need saving; she's already at your home." Jiang Xia said, looking at Hong Yin Ye as she was putting on clothes.

Blue-yellow kept shaking, as if something were about to burst from underground; the surrounding rocks instantly turned to fragments.

"Then I can rest easy." Zhen Ye didn't ask further, but reached out to touch Yabianfu San Shi.

At that moment, she heard footsteps approaching from afar, running with great haste, each step betraying hard-to-conceal anxiety.

Coming in from outside was a youth in a red coat—no, more like a teenager—Hong Yin Ye thought.

Then, it seemed to have selected a target, and at near-teleportation speed drove its tentacles into the body of a tooth blood vampire kneeling on one knee.

Yabianfu Er Shi had finally arrived. Jiang Xia looked at the black bat, its mouth corners slightly upturned.

"What?!"

Jiang Xia glanced at Hong Yin Ye's body; externally it was only superficial wounds, which would soon heal thanks to her self-healing ability, but her internal life energy was now nearly exhausted.

A booming roar shattered the nests of snakes, insects, rats, and ants; the light in the underground cavern suddenly flared, blinding, and began to flicker slowly.

"What are you doing, father?"

The sunlight from above the opening poured straight down; the intense blast directly pierced the ground, and this underground cavern vanished in an instant, becoming a huge pit.

Zhen Ye held a hint of speculation: "You come from the future?"

"Hong Du? You're called Hong Du, right?" Hong Yin Ye, with her back to Hong Du, quickly took off the hospital gown.

Under its leadership, the surrounding tooth blood vampires all launched an attack toward the upper rock wall.

"Hmm."

Like a newborn animal, it stretched out its tiny hand to begin contacting this world.

"Because it means I can give my life to Yin Ye." Zhen Ye said with a faint smile.

"The inheritor of Mo Huang Kiva wouldn't be called Hong Du, would it?"

Jiang Xia stood up, turned his head toward the door, and said softly, "Come in, Hong Du."

"Don't tease me, Mr. Jiang Xia." Hong Du's face flashed with embarrassment.

"From now on, we'll live together, Zhen Ye." Hong Yin Ye said.

After hearing Jiang Xia's explanation, Hong Yin Ye twisted her neck, jumped straight off the hospital bed, her feet lightly touching the cold tiles, then swiftly began to take off her clothes.

Like someone about to learn the truth, with each bit of knowledge her anticipation grew, while fear and unease continually swelled in her heart.

"Why, why do you now know Hong Du?" Yabianfu San Shi opened its mouth wide, looking at Zhen Ye with astonishment.

"Relatives? Who do you mean?" Hong Yin Ye asked.

"That's right, Lady Zhen Ye."

"I still have urgent matters to do; you should first follow Jiang Xia, and after I finish handling things I'll say—" Zhen Ye and Ci Lang are still waiting for me to go rescue.

The Moon's Eye blinked, like a spider, its sky‑filling tentacles turning into spider legs for support; it leapt with all its might, flipped, rose into the air, traced a perfect arc, and directly covered the face of the tooth blood vampire it had chosen.

The Moon's Eye's huge pupil kept scanning; suddenly the pupil contracted sharply, a blinding golden light flowed from its depths, covering the Moon's Eye entirely.

"Then let's first go home."

The hurried footsteps suddenly stopped, turning into a slow, steady sound; at the moment they met, they clung tightly to each other.

At the moment of coverage, that one‑knee tooth blood vampire's body shuddered violently, the light in its eyes utterly shattered, it jerked upright, and countless black tentacles plunged straight into its back.

Immediately, Jiang Xia's eyes suddenly blazed with brilliant red‑gold.

"Are you Yabianfu San Shi?" Zhen Ye asked, leaning against the bed, looking at the form that closely resembled Yabianfu Er Shi.

"No, that was just an accident." Jiang Xia said.

Behind it also grew a pair of black wings.

"What a moving scene." A low, slightly aged voice suddenly sounded from outside the window.

"Pretty good." Yabianfu San Shi said.

"I think I understand," Hong Yin Ye said seriously, nodding, "Does Youli know about this, about you being from the future?"

"Yin Ye, I'm here," Zhen Ye stood up and shouted.

In an instant, the surface of its iridescent body was covered by a jet‑black shell, its arms spread, its head elongated, and a huge eyeball sprouted on its chest.

"What does it feel like to watch your own parents fall in love?" Jiang Xia looked at the two of them, then turned to Hong Du and asked.

The Tooth Blood Vampire possessed by the Moon Eye spread its wings, and with all the Tooth Blood Vampires it rushed out of the ground in an instant.

Target: Delan Castle Dragon.
