hesitations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subtle caution in his blood mana circulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The way he continued measuring the sky instead of directly suppressing

time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>GrandLord Dreath narrowed his eyes faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant werewolf slowly shrugged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just curious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze lingered carefully on Dreath’s aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Were you injured somewhere?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding leaders immediately became even quieter afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because now—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The probing had begun openly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>GrandLord Dreath’s expression darkened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Watch your mouth, wolf.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kael grinned again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time the grin looked sharper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Relax.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lifted both hands slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m only asking because this situation feels

calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A being of your temperament normally would not hesitate this long.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>GrandLord Dreath’s eyes narrowed further now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pressure around him increased faintly afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But instead of backing down—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding Ascendant leaders became even more suspicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because that reaction—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost felt defensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The winged race leader suddenly asked casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...How long has it been since you fought seriously?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silence followed immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lord Vord looked increasingly uncomfortable now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Elder Achilor frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the questions were becoming dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding emperor-level beings also gradually noticed the tension shifting now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just fear toward the clouds

earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because now—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A possibility had entered their minds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And once such thoughts appeared—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They became difficult to suppress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dwarf king suddenly rubbed his flaming beard thoughtfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Now that I think about it...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes

face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ancient elf Sylvera became very quiet again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The winged race leader narrowed his eyes sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lord Vord internally panicked slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because now things were becoming

honestly—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That possibility sounded absurd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of enemy could weaken GrandLord Dreath, Elder Achilor, and Lord Vord simultaneously inside vampire territory itself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kael’s wolf eyes narrowed upward toward the dark clouds again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then back toward the vampires.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Those things above...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...they aren’t related somehow, are they?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lord Vord immediately shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kael noticed immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So did everyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant werewolf grinned wider afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now I’m even more curious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere throughout the arena had become extremely strange now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding races still feared GrandLord Dreath deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That had not changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That fear mixed with realization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realization that the legendary ancient vampire was not currently at full strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if GrandLord Dreath weakened himself...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then what exactly exhausted him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several emperor-level leaders from other races quietly exchanged glances now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even some vampires themselves looked increasingly nervous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because this situation was becoming dangerous politically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vampire race originally stood overwhelmingly dominant here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too many powerful races had gathered simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And they all realized the vampire leadership had weakened somewhat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark clouds overhead rumbled violently again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>RUMBLE!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several humanoid shadows moved closer within the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One silhouette pressed partially through the cloud layer briefly before retreating again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its glowing pale eyes lingered downward toward the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pressure descending from above intensified further afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet strangely—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding Ascendant leaders no longer focused entirely on the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Part of their attention remained fixed firmly on the vampires now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ancient elf Sylvera finally spoke calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...You exhausted yourselves before this invasion appeared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Statement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Achilor snorted irritably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So what if we did?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kael immediately barked out another laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed upward toward the clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And now you can’t freely deal with THAT.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dwarf king rubbed his beard thoughtfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Interesting timing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The winged race leader slowly narrowed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Very interesting timing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lord Vord internally cursed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because now the surrounding leaders were probing constantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Testing reactions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Observing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Calculating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the vampires could not openly explain the truth about the Moonshade family incident earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Certainly not in front of all these races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain silently watched everything unfold from near the Moonshade family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression remained calm outwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But internally—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was beginning to realize the situation was becoming far more troublesome than expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the surrounding races were no longer simply worried about the clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now they were measuring the vampires themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially if the invasion above truly escalated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then suddenly—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dwarf king’s eyes widened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slowly looked toward Elder Achilor again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then toward Lord Vord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then toward GrandLord Dreath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And finally—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A grin spread across his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A very dangerous grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oooh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding Ascendant leaders slowly understood too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And one by one—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Expressions changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because now they all realized something together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just GrandLord Dreath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All three of the vampire leaders were weakened.\u003C\u002Fp>",1983,"2026-06-05T18:38:13.249Z",1,"novelbin.me","cc93192411b10560e98cb3bc63ba1b4e88d381e5e5b37726eb1d62f7629161e2","my-three-beautiful-vampire-wives-can-hear-my-inn-chapter-270","my-three-beautiful-vampire-wives-can-hear-my-inn-chapter-268",274,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmy-three-beautiful-vampire-wives-can-hear-my-inn-cover.jpg"]
