If it really was the Blood Hunter Guild Master's doing, then the most dangerous thing is that he stayed alone in a room with so many vampires without any assistants, leaving himself no way to escape.
Most likely, the problem lies within the Blood Hunter Guild itself.
The Blood Hunter Guild Master's face also darkened.
He considered this peace talk very important. In all these years, this was the only opportunity for a vampire prince to negotiate with humans. Even if the negotiations failed, he didn't want to damage the relationship between the two.
Moreover, the negotiations are already on the verge of success.
Looking at the Blood Hunter Guild Master's expression, Gu He knew it wasn't him, but what did it matter if it wasn't him?
Gu He simply said, "It doesn't matter. Anyway, he's the president of the Blood Hunters, so why not just kidnap him?"
“No,” Ji Zhaoming said. “A kidnapping would be… that would be the symbol of their complete breakdown.”
But before he could finish speaking, a glance out of the corner of his eye revealed that the vampire in Gu He's arms was slowly raising his head.
His eyes were brownish-black with black pupils, yet even at this moment, they did not reveal any characteristics of a vampire.
That was clearly not a vampire, but a pure human.
What is a human's intention in pretending to be a vampire at this time?
Ji Zhaoming saw the human's hand stealthily reach into his robes, a flash of silver light passing by.
Ji Zhaoming's pupils constricted: "Gu He, be careful!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the human realized that he had been exposed and thrust his hand at Gu He without hesitation.
With Ji Zhaoming's advance warning, Gu He reacted quickly, pressing his hand firmly on the man's wrist while simultaneously kicking him hard in the abdomen.
But this person was too close to Gu He, and he was covered in vampire blood. Gu He was completely unprepared. Even with his quick reflexes, the sword was already aimed at him. In the critical moment, Gu He had no choice but to block the attack with his hand.
Blood dripped onto the ground, and Gu He's eyes turned red as he looked at the knife.
It was a silver knife, coated with magic specifically designed to counter vampires.
Gu He leaned against the wall, supporting himself with his hands on the ground.
Ji Zhaoming quickly walked to his side and asked, "What should we do?"
Gu He's red eyes flickered and landed on Ji Zhaoming: "It's not a serious injury."
Meanwhile, the Blood Hunter Guild Master also summoned his assistant. To ensure his safety, he, like Ji Zhaoming, dispatched a large number of Blood Hunters to protect him. However, some unscrupulous individuals infiltrated among them and took the opportunity to cause trouble.
Gu Yunzhou subdued the person who had injured Gu He and asked, "What should we do with him?"
Ji Zhaoming looked at Gu He's injured hand and gently placed his hand over it.
The system suddenly spoke up: "Wang, you can try treating him."
Ji Zhaoming felt he must be on the verge of a breakdown.
Yet, he felt utterly rational. Even now, with his mind in complete turmoil, he kept asking himself: "What should I do?"
System: [Nothing needs to be done.]
System: [Wang only needs to believe that he can do it.]
"Okay." Ji Zhaoming heard his own perfectly calm voice.
He gripped Gu He's hand tightly and, as the system instructed, called out to him in his mind over and over again.
“Ji... Zhaoming”.
In the darkness, he seemed to hear someone calling him.
The voice was filled with a faint sadness, yet it tugged at Ji Zhaoming's heart, making him feel as if he could hardly breathe.
"It's spring already, time to get up and take a look."
He heard the owner of the voice say something.
It's very familiar.
Ji Zhaoming suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Gu Yunzhou.
That was clearly Gu Yunzhou's voice!
A blinding light burst forth from his palm, and the wound on Gu He's hand slowly faded until it disappeared completely. Gu He's eyes also changed from deep red to light red, and when he looked at Ji Zhaoming, his eyes inexplicably carried a hint of sorrow.
But this feeling quickly faded from his eyes.
Gu He said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ji Zhaoming then looked down at Gu Yunzhou's feet.
That was the man who had previously assassinated Gu He. Ji Zhaoming brushed away his disheveled hair and then slowly wiped the blood off his face.
Ji Zhaoming had met this person before.
He glanced at the man's chest and sneered, "Where's your gold badge?"
The man's face showed an expression of exasperation.
The president recognized the man and sighed deeply, "He made a mistake in his mission and was demoted."
Gu Yunzhou asked, "What does Master intend to do with this?"
Gu He also looked at him.
Having traversed so many worlds, Ji Zhaoming naturally knew he couldn't be soft-hearted. Therefore, he simply lowered his eyes and said in a calm tone, "Kill them."
The chairman frowned and called out, "Your Highness, you—"
He couldn't let the Blood Hunter die right under his nose, and just as he was about to speak to stop him, he saw Ji Zhaoming's eyes.
It was very cold, like an iceberg, as if saying, "If you try to stop us, we won't be polite."
The president then swallowed the rest of his words and changed his tone, saying to Gu Yunzhou, "You should stay away from this. You're too old to see this kind of thing."
When Gu He wanted to kill him before, it was Ji Zhaoming who stopped him. He couldn't be an ungrateful person.
Ji Zhaoming hummed in agreement, then said, "How many vampires are still outside? Let's go together... Never mind, I'll go with you."
"Your Majesty," Gu He pulled Ji Zhaoming back, "we can go on our own."
Ji Zhaoming smiled at him: "It's okay, I'll be fine, right?"
He stared intently into Gu He's eyes.
The answer came not from Gu He, but from the system in his mind.
System: [Yes, Your Majesty.]
Ji Zhaoming: [How should this world end?]
System: [Wang has found the truth and can leave at any time.]
After all, the system had already made it very clear that this world was created by Gu Yunzhou for him. As for the reason, it was probably his car accident.
Perhaps after completing the mission, I will be able to wake up and return to the real world.
Ji Zhaoming glanced at Gu He, then at Gu Yunzhou, and did not choose to leave immediately.
Even though he knew this was a fake world, the emotions he experienced were real. Ji Zhaoming at least hoped that this world would have a beginning and an end.
Gu He didn't understand Ji Zhaoming's meaning. After pondering for a while, he smiled and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
With him around, Ji Zhaoming will definitely not have any problems.
Just as he was about to walk forward, Gu Yunzhou, who had already finished dealing with the people, returned.
Gu Yunzhou said, "I have already contacted the Vampire Guild to send more people. I have also learned about the situation outside. You are getting old, so please follow the assistant and take another route. They are not targeting you."
The Blood Hunter Guild Master nodded: "And what about you?"
Gu Yunzhou stood beside Ji Zhaoming.
This action speaks volumes.
The Blood Hunter Guild Leader laughed. "Alright, I understand. Be careful."
After the Blood Hunter Guild Leader left, Gu Yunzhou gently placed a kiss on Ji Zhaoming's lips.
Goodbye to the real world.

<Let me introduce myself, my name is Gu Yunzhou>
Chapter 76
Gu Yunzhou took the lead and walked ahead of Ji Zhaoming.
Ji Zhaoming then belatedly realized that he and Gu Yunzhou always walked side by side, rarely with one of them being ahead or behind. So this was the first time he had seen Gu Yunzhou's tall figure.
It looks like a towering mountain that reaches into the clouds; as long as you stand there, the sky will never fall.
Similarly, it also made Ji Zhaoming feel distant, as if once he turned back, he would never be able to return.
Ji Zhaoming subconsciously reached out and grabbed Gu Yunzhou's arm.
Gu Yunzhou turned around in surprise and called out, "Master?"
Ji Zhaoming smiled and walked to Gu Yunzhou's side, holding Gu Yunzhou's hand firmly: "It's alright, I'll go with you."
Gu Yunzhou was taken aback for a moment, then looked tenderly at his arm.
He paused for a moment, then placed Ji Zhaoming's hand in his palm: "Okay."
The Blood Hunters intend to eliminate the vampires completely in this war. The vampires are not unprepared. In addition to the vampires who arrived earlier, there are also some vampires hiding in the shadows, just waiting for Ji Zhaoming's order to move out immediately.
Gu He contacted this group of vampires and joked, "I never thought that one day, vampires would fight alongside blood hunters. Aren't you afraid that other blood hunters will mistakenly think you've completely betrayed us?"
"The guild leader is already adjusting the manpower," Gu Yunzhou said. "It seems that most of the blood hunters who are still here have some ulterior motives."
"Besides, there will be other opportunities to cooperate in the future." Gu Yunzhou smiled slightly.
Just as Gu He said, the moment Gu Yunzhou appeared, the Blood Hunters present frowned and questioned, "Gu Yunzhou, are you planning to join forces with the Blood Clan?"
Gu Yunzhou slowly rolled up his sleeves, not answering the question, but turning to look at Ji Zhaoming: "Master?"
But this title alone is enough to say a lot.
