Are you the Ghost King from Sioux City

Chen Shuo knew that this scrawny vampire had come to find him, definitely had something going on.

Moreover, looking at the resentment oozing from this vampire's face, his hatred meter directly maxed out, it definitely wouldn't be anything good.

Why would he harbor so much hatred against a fellow vampire?

Chen Shuo pointed at the empty stool beside him, "Eat some barbecue?"

The bloodshot veins in the scrawny vampire's eyes bulged as he glared fiercely at Chen Shuo.

"If you don't want barbecue, how about duck's blood vermicelli? Eat some blood, get your strength up, you look famished."

The scrawny vampire squeezed out two words from between clenched teeth, "Traitor!"

Chen Shuo: "What do you mean?"

"When did I ever become a traitor among vampires? I wasn't born a vampire."

In contrast to Chen Shuo's composure, the scrawny vampire's hands were clenched tightly into fists, the veins on the back of his bony hands protruding.

Chen Shuo picked up a skewer, gave it a sniff: "You really should eat more! If you're too thin, you'll be at a disadvantage in a fight."

With Su Xiyan not around, Chen Shuo could freely access his system panel.

Through the system interface, Chen Shuo saw that the vampire before him was just a low level fledgling. He still had a ways to go before reaching a higher level.

Moreover, this vampire's blood meter was running low. Looks like he hadn't fed in quite some time.

The Su City demon hunters have been doing a good job lately! They had frightened the vampires so much none dared to go out and feed.

Chen Shuo pointed at the empty stool and nonchalantly said, "That seat originally had a gold ranked demon hunter sitting there, but she's gone to buy snacks and stepped away for now. You'd best run along before she gets back."

The scrawny vampire let out a raspy chuckle, "Su Xiyan? She went towards the eastern snack street. Don't ask how I know, you should ask how I even have the chance to stand here now."

After a moment's thought, Chen Shuo understood:

"No wonder she's been gone so long just to buy a small iron plate tofu."

"So you guys deliberately lured her away."

When the scrawny vampire spoke to this point, he clenched his fist and slammed it heavily on the table,

with such great force that even the barbecue on the table got scattered around.

Chen Shuo unhurriedly tidied up the messy barbecue: "In our human values, food should not be wasted."

"Kid, what you're doing is wrong."

The scrawny vampire leaned forward, right up to Chen Shuo's face, and grated out between clenched teeth: "You humans? Traitor! Don't forget, you're a vampire!"

"Don't forget, it was Tang Ya who spared your pathetic life and allowed you to become a vampire."

Chen Shuo sneered coldly: "So her name was Tang Ya? What a pity, when she died before my eyes I still didn't know her name!"

"But I have no interest in ever knowing it either."

This was like a heavy blow to the scrawny vampire, igniting his fury!

He shot up from his stool, voice hoarse:

"Courting death!!!"

This commotion attracted the attention of the other barbecue patrons, who started looking over at Chen Shuo's table.

Chen Shuo thought to himself, this was not a good sign. If the vampire's identity was exposed and humans knew there were vampires existing around them, it would cause tremendous panic among the human populace.

By then, both vampires and demon hunters would be exposed.

Just then, right on cue, the barbecue stand owner came over too.

The owner was a kindly middle aged man, he and his wife ran this little barbecue stand to make a humble living.

Small business people like them were most afraid of fights breaking out at their establishment.

The owner had a towel draped around his neck and came over to Chen Shuo's table, took off his greasy mask, smiling ingratiatingly: "Young men, there are no disagreements that can't be talked through peacefully while seated."

"How about this, young men, give me some face and let this barbecue meal be my treat."

Chen Shuo really didn't want to drag such a kindly, timid man into this, so he intentionally spoke very loudly to the owner: "Boss, don't worry about it, this guy's my relative, he's a bit mentally ill and has fits where he can't control wanting to hit people."

"He goes after anyone around him."

"Rest assured boss, just focus on running your barbecue business, I'll take care of him right away."

After hearing Chen Shuo's words, the frightened owner immediately retreated back to his barbecue stand.

The other barbecue patrons also grabbed their food and moved to tables farther away, afraid of getting caught as collateral damage from being too close to Chen Shuo.

This was precisely the effect Chen Shuo wanted to achieve.

Dealing with a vampire couldn't be seen by others, nor bring harm to surrounding humans.

Chen Shuo could set up a boundary, but surely not right before people's eyes!

Now with people dispersed,

Chen Shuo lightly waved his hand in the air, immediately adding a transparent boundary around them.

The humans nearby could only see Chen Shuo and the scrawny vampire sitting quietly eating barbecue, nothing else, no fighting. Those who had fled farther but still wanted to watch lost interest and stopped looking over.

Even if they did look, they wouldn't see anything.

Within the boundary, before Chen Shuo could even speak, the scrawny vampire started trembling all over!

He stared at Chen Shuo in horror, his lips quivering for a long time before he could get any words out.

Chen Shuo picked up a skewer of barbecue and took a bite, calmly saying, "Go ahead, any last words?"

"How can a species like vampires be allowed to exist in this world?"

"The world is peaceful and all things are good, it cannot tolerate your wantonness."

Speaking these words, Chen Shuo didn't seem to feel at all that he himself was a vampire. From start to finish, Chen Shuo also avoided acknowledging the fact that he was a vampire. Or perhaps Chen Shuo was actually evading the reality that he was a vampire.

With the barrier in place and Su Xiyan not around, Chen Shuo no longer needed to conceal his true strength.

The powerful pressure caused the scrawny vampire before him to turn deathly pale.

"You...you're the Ghost King that appeared in Su City?!"
