The Girl Who Reincarnated as a Vampire Heiress

Chapter 277

Xavier's face was grim, with an ominous air of impending storm.

Except for Chloe, everyone else showed signs of retreat.

After all, he was the progenitor of the Vampire race. If he truly became enraged, few present could withstand it.

It was only because Chloe was Xavier's only daughter that she dared to be so fearless.

Xavier looked at her sternly: "Who told you, Ren Yunying?"

Chloe pouted: "What does this have to do with Instructor Ren?"

"Then it must be the Viper Group," Xavier said calmly. "If that's the case, we have even more reason to firmly eradicate the Viper Group's hideouts."

With that, he turned and walked towards the tent.

"Hey!"

Chloe gritted her teeth, exchanged a glance with her companions, and finally rushed after him.

She ran to Xavier's side in a few quick strides, tugging at his sleeve: "Since when did you become so impulsive? You don't even know where the Viper Group's hideouts are!"

Xavier stopped, glancing at his only daughter with an indifferent tone: "I do know."

He said: "News about the Viper Group has been leaking for hundreds of years. As long as we dig in that direction, we'll find them eventually."

Chloe: "Those are all uncertain factors. How do you know they're not deliberately leaked false information?"

The girl looked very agitated, and indeed she was.

If Xavier were truly allowed to act this way, given the already precarious trust between the Four Great Races, a major war could break out at any moment.

Knowing she couldn't stand by and watch this happen, Chloe tried her best to stop him:

"You're leading millions of troops to the border of the Elven Life Forest. Don't you know what kind of public reaction that will cause?"

"I do," Xavier's dark red eyes showed no emotion. "But Chloe, you don't have that much time left."

"The Viper Group has committed numerous evil deeds, you know that yourself. Once your body is completely controlled by the Viper Group, you..."

He paused, then slowly continued: "You won't live much longer."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Huaibei and the others nearby were stunned:

"What do you mean? What do you mean by not living much longer?"

Daniel's eyes reddened as he rushed forward from the back:

"Explain yourself! What do you mean by not living much longer?"

Qin Huaibei's voice trembled: "Wasn't it just ordinary drowsiness? How did it turn into a matter of lifespan?!"

They had originally planned to keep it a secret, but now...

Chloe pressed her lips together and looked back, her gaze meeting Anderson's at the back of the crowd.

His emerald eyes were deep and dark, filled with complex emotions.

Somehow, Chloe felt as if she had been scalded and hurriedly looked away.

Remembering Ren Yunying's instructions, Chloe cursed inwardly.

Damn instructor, I'll remember this. If I can't give her sufficient compensation someday...

Chloe closed her eyes, steeled herself, and swiftly drew a dagger from her waist, pressing it against her neck.

In the next moment, she pressed down hard.

Blood gushed out.

Xavier's pupils constricted: "What are you doing?!"

Seeing this, not only Xavier but also Qin Huaibei and the others were stunned.

Daniel, with reddened eyes, rushed forward to snatch the knife from Chloe's hand.

But before he could get close, a figure kicked him away.

It wasn't Chloe, but Anderson.

The young man stood tall, his emerald eyes shimmering in the light, now appearing particularly cold and merciless.

Daniel was nearly kicked bloody. He looked at Anderson with resentment:

"What's the meaning of this? Can't you see that Chloe is..."

"I've said before, my life's primary purpose is to follow Young Miss's wishes."

"I follow her unconditionally."

Daniel spat out a mouthful of blood, his expression vicious: "You think you're so great."

Damn it, a mad dog that bites without barking.

To be honest, even Chloe was shocked by Anderson's actions.

She widened her eyes slightly: "Not bad, you're so obedient."

Obedient.

Anderson's eyelashes trembled, his gaze falling on the blood continuously flowing from Chloe's neck, a dark gleam flashing in his eyes.

At the same time, Xavier's calm voice came from nearby:

"Chloe, put down the dagger."

How could Chloe listen to him? She pressed the dagger harder against her neck. Seeing Xavier's brow twitch, she said cheerfully:

"If I put it down just because you tell me to, wouldn't that make me look weak?"

She added: "Unless you withdraw your troops."

Then, glancing at the trembling Elven sentries nearby, she said: "Or you can have a proper discussion with the Elves."

"Otherwise..."

Chloe's hand tightened on the dagger.

Not far away, Xavier's face tensed.

Like his voice, it was like a bowstring pulled to its limit, on the verge of snapping at any moment.

He said: "Using life as a threat is the most cowardly and incompetent behavior."

"Chloe, I don't remember teaching you this. Is this the dignity and demeanor of a crown princess?"

Hearing this, Chloe blinked: "But daddy, aren't you the one who's easily threatened by me like this?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xavier's expression became even more grim.

He took a deep breath, and when he finally opened his eyes, his expression was cold:

"You will regret your actions today."

With that, he fiercely swept his sleeve, his sharp gaze turning to the Elven guard not far away:

"Where are your elders? Tell them to come and talk to me."

Then, he turned and entered the tent.

Watching his retreating figure, Chloe finally slowly lowered the dagger.

At this moment, the surrounding generals and soldiers could finally breathe loudly.

Heaven knows how scared they were when they saw the Young Miss press the dagger against herself!

As the dagger fell, not only did they breathe a sigh of relief, but Daniel also quickly ran over, snatched the dagger away and threw it to the ground, then fiercely grabbed Chloe's collar.

His expression was angry, his eyes red.

He looked like he was about to cry.

Chloe raised an eyebrow, looking at Daniel with a half-smile, her tone almost gentle:

"Are you angry?"

Daniel: "Who the hell would be angry for you? Even if you died in front of me right now, I wouldn't even blink!"

Hearing this, Chloe couldn't help but laugh.

This made Daniel feel even more angry.

Not far away, Qin Huaibei wore a worried expression. He looked at Chloe and shook his head disapprovingly:

"Chloe, you shouldn't joke around with your own body."

Hearing this, Chloe gave a bitter smile:

"I don't want to either, but look at how stubborn and unyielding Xavier is. If I don't do this, would he ever budge?"

"Let's not talk about that for now," Qin Huaibei pushed up his glasses. "What you said earlier about not having long to live, what exactly did you mean by that?"
