Chapter 446: If You Will Not Reject Me, I Humbly Offer to Bow as Your Adoptive Father

After escaping Kaisus, Christine prepared to find a hiding place first, then use a communication device to notify her master.

But before she could carry out this plan, she felt a blur before her eyes, and suddenly appeared among the clouds.

Christine looked down at the clouds beneath her feet, then at the young man before her, and forced a smile onto her face: "Master."

Seeing her master after so long, she hesitated momentarily, but finally suppressed her fear, knelt to the ground, and crawled forward to kiss his feet.

For some reason, the pressure he exerted on her was even greater than Kaisus's, though in her perception his strength had not changed much since their last meeting.

The golden-haired vampire had no idea that Li Ang had already ascended to the Fifth Tier, nor did she know that her feeling stemmed from the close connection between the 【Simulated Follower】 made with 【Infinite】 Bone Powder and Li Ang.

Li Ang did not reject Christine's flattery; he gazed at the golden hair scattered across the clouds and said calmly: "You've done well."

Upon hearing this, Christine trembled all over, then stopped her actions, and spoke with extreme flattery: "Thank you, Master, for your praise."

"Stand up."

To be honest, Li Ang admitted he had underestimated this burnout vampire's will to survive.

He hadn't expected that after being captured by that Executive for so many days, she hadn't revealed a single word about him.

Thinking of this, he said casually: "Starting today, you'll stay and work with the Plant Union. Dani卡 needs your guidance anyway."

After the scandal broke, Christine clearly couldn't remain in the Blood Secret Corporation as a mole; it would be better for her to stay on Morabiss Star and continue shining.

Upon hearing this, the golden-haired vampire's eyes flickered with delight, then turned to worry.

Not having to return to the Blood Secret Corporation was indeed good—it meant she wouldn't have to live in constant fear anymore—but the problem was, Morabiss Star wasn't a good place either.

Christine hadn't forgotten that her former superior was currently on this planet.

Thinking of this, she immediately wanted to warn him.

But when she saw her master's utterly calm expression and the chilling aura he emitted upon meeting her, the golden-haired vampire chose to stay silent.

'Does Master have a trump card to deal with Kaisus? Like how he handled me back then?'

Christine dared not ask, and could only speculate wildly in her mind.

Yet she soon noticed something strange: why hadn't Kaisus come looking for her yet? After all, he had found her even when she was hiding in a safehouse not long ago.

'No way…'

At the thought of a possible explanation, Christine stole a glance at Li Ang and involuntarily swallowed.

Li Ang didn't care what this burnout vampire was thinking; he stared at the black mist below, like a headless fly, his expression utterly unchanged.

Just as Kaisus wanted to hide in the shadows and observe him, Li Ang intended to first see what this Blood Secret Corporation Executive would do, to confirm his suspicions.

And the facts proved he had the upper hand.

But when he saw the black mist arrive at a place on Morabiss Star known as the "Forbidden Zone," Li Ang couldn't help but think inwardly: 'Of course, Fifth Tier cultivators have their tricks.'

The so-called "Forbidden Zone" was naturally where Elise played daily. Though 【Zhou Tian Changes of Principle】 and other skills helped her conceal the noise she made while playing, anomalies were still occasionally noticed.

In a Cthulhu novel, this would be called excessive inspiration—occasionally glimpsing the truth of the world.

Add to that Elise's habit of eating soil, which made the terrain… unattractive, and her enormous size, terrifying to ordinary people, and thus the so-called "Forbidden Zone" came into legend.

The fluctuation Kaisus had just detected was precisely what Sophia caused by overexerting herself.

Confident in his strength, he naturally didn't believe any being on Morabiss Star could threaten him—he assumed he'd caught Li Ang's slip-up.

And then he walked straight into it.

Seeing Elise begin to puff out air, Li Ang sighed helplessly, then appeared with Christine at the scene.

If he kept hiding, the two sides would soon be fighting—after all, to Elise and Sophia, this vampire was extremely suspicious, clearly no good.

Elise was the first to react to the sudden appearance of the young man.

The black dog-dragon trotted over to the young man and whined: "Woof, Li Ang, this guy smashed my ball."

"I'll make you another one later."

Li Ang glanced at the metal ball shattered by Kaisus's reflexive explosion, patted Elise's head, and said gently:

Regardless of what the black dog-dragon's intentions were, at least she was decent for guarding the place now.

Hearing this, Elise's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Really."

As Li Ang spoke, he scratched under Elise's chin.

Only he could do this—any ordinary Fourth Tier cultivator would be exhausted trying to scratch Elise.

As the black dog-dragon closed her eyes in pleasure, Sophia walked over to Li Ang's side.

She looked at the black-haired vampire nearby, wary and tense, and asked quietly: "What happened?"

"Just a business dispute."

Li Ang had no intention of elaborating to Sophia.

Though his relationship with this mature beauty had been fairly good so far, it hadn't reached the point of mutual openness.

Sophia naturally understood this; seeing Li Ang wouldn't answer, she didn't press further, but out of politeness asked: "Need help?"

"No, I can handle it." Li Ang shook his head slightly. "Take Elise back first. But there might be some trouble for you these next few days."

Perhaps his words had misled Sophia; the rainbow-haired beauty bit her vivid red lips, her cheeks faintly flushing: ". Alright."

Li Ang was already used to this; at first he couldn't understand why Sophia kept blushing, until one day Dani卡 revealed the truth.
