<h4>Chapter 877: Chapter 877: Hope... It’s You (Fifth Update)</h4><h4></h4>


    Just then, Aixi and Huo’er, who were out, had both returned.


    Seeing this scene, d slightly bowed to Xue An, "Honored guest, wee to your arrival, I shall take my leave now!"


    After speaking, he said to Win Ni, "Let’s go!"


    Then he turned around and left.


    Xue An watched his departing figure, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint, almost imperceptible smile.


    "Sir, what do these two people do?" Huo’er asked suspiciously.


    Xue An replied indifferently, "It’s nothing, just came to say hello!"


    Huo’er was still puzzled, but seeing Xue An’s expression, he swallowed his questions and dared not ask further.


    Win Ni, with her head lowered and her face full of shame, followed d back to the room.


    "Chief, I’m sorry! But I was really worried that these people were from one of the three great ns, so I wanted to test them first!"


    "Enough! Don’t speak of it anymore." d said indifferently.


    Win Ni fell silent.


    "You must not be so reckless in your actions in the future! Otherwise, it will lead to serious consequences, understand?"


    "Yes!"


    "You may leave now!"


    "Hmm?" Win Ni thought she had heard wrong and looked up at d in confusion.


    "What ’hmm?’ Go and rest!" d said with a smile.


    "But Chief, are you really not angry with me?" Win Ni asked cautiously.


    d couldn’t help but smile wryly, then straightened his face, "Do you really want me to be angry to be satisfied?"


    "Ah, no no! Then I’ll leave first!" Seeing that d really wasn’t angry, Win Ni finally let go of her worries and happily turned around and left.


    d watched her figure disappear behind the door, then leaned back in his chair, stared up at the ceiling, and spaced out.


    He didn’t know how much time had passed when he finally chuckled softly and whispered to himself.


    "I hope... it’s you!"


    As the date of the Blood Sacrifice approached.


    The security in Ino City became increasingly strict.


    But this still couldn’t dampen the enthusiasm of Blood ns from all quartersing here.


    After all, having the opportunity to witness the awakening of three legendary first-generation Blood Race members was extremely rare.


    Thus, Ino City grew even more bustling.


    Finally.


    On this day.


    An enormous Blood n procession, almost endless in sight, arrived at Ino City.


    Their spread wings even covered the sky.


    In the middle of the procession, they were escorting a carriage adorned with a bizarre and grotesque family crest.


    "It’s the Gils n!"


    "The Gils n has arrived, the Blood Sacrifice is about to begin!"


    The numerous Blood ns were all exceedingly excited.


    Meanwhile, in the inn, Xue An, who was sitting cross-legged in his room, though his eyes were not open, a smile full of chilling murderous intent emerged on his lips.


    That evening.


    Inside Ino Castle.


    A high-profile private dinner was underway.


    Inor Condin, as the host, entertained the people of the Gils n who hade from afar.


    Clementine of the Hry n, as the eldest daughter, attended in full dress as a guest.


    Inor Condin raised his ss first, nodding to the man known as "the Impaler" across the long table.


    "Honorable dimir Gils, wee to your arrival!"


    dimir, dressed in a suit dyed with fresh blood, had a handsome face, but his eyes, which glimmered wickedly, were full of arrogance.


    As the eldest son of the Gils n, his bloodline was exceedingly noble.


    But his unique and cruel inclinations made him a distinctive figure even among the Blood n.


    The nickname of this piercer is the best example.


    Such a person, even someone as esteemed as Inor Condin, would not want to provoke excessively.


    After seeing Inor Condin gesture a toast to him,


    dimir Gils smiled faintly and then said in a hoarse voice, "Your Excellency Condin, you are too polite!"


    As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to Clementine at his side, "Beautiful Miss Clementine, do I not deserve a toast from you too?"


    Clementine’s face paled slightly, and a hint of fear shed deep in her eyes.


    For such a deviant, even if she were the eldest daughter of the Hry n, she had to bow down.


    "I’m sorry, Lord dimir, I was just a bit distracted!"


    As she spoke, Clementine raised her ss and gave dimir a toast.


    dimir tugged at the corner of his mouth, revealing a ferocious smile.


    "It’s been decades, Miss Clementine, you’ve be even more beautiful. I wonder if you’d be interested in testing whether you could bear a Blood descendant with me?"


    Clementine’s face turned from pale to red, and anger appeared in her eyes.


    At that moment, Inor Condin quickly intervened to smooth things over.


    "Alright, alright, Lord dimir, I know you’re just joking with my cousin. Let’s discuss serious matters instead!"


    "So tense? Why, have you tried it already? And you couldn’t bear Blood descendants either?" dimir said teasingly.


    His words caught both Inor Condin and Clementine off guard.


    Especially Clementine, who showed a trace of panic in her eyes.


    "Hehe, just kidding, why so serious?" dimirughed several unpleasant, strangeughs, then leaned back in his chair as if boneless.


    "Serious matters? Our Gils n has captured all the souls from one hundred eighty cages for this Blood Sacrifice and purchased billions of living souls, amounting to...


    dimir stretched out a finger, proudly saying, "Ten billion living souls as sacrifices. When our progenitor returns, he will certainly be very pleased!"


    Ten billion!


    This number made even Inor Condin’s color change.


    The Ino Family had gathered only five billion for this Blood Sacrifice in total.


    And the Hry n, the weakest in strength, managed only twenty billion.


    Together, they couldn’t match the contributions of the Gils n.


    Is this the disparity in strength?


    dimir, somewhat bored, stretchedzily and then stood up, "Alright, it’s bedtime, my daily routine is very precise! Anyway, that’s the situation, so the remaining tasks are up to your two families to handle!"


    As he spoke, dimir yawned and walked away on his own.


    Inor Condin’s eyes turned slightly cold.


    dimir’s arrogance was truly ufortable for him.


    But he was helpless.


    As a powerful Blood n who had already awakened the second-generation bloodline, dimir indeed had the capital to be arrogant.


    "Issue the order now, begin preparations, tomorrow the Blood Sacrifice will start!"


    "Yes!"


    At thatmand, the whole of Ino City sprang into action.


    The Blood Sacrifice was finally about to begin.


    The next day.


    As dawn just began to break, the glow of the blood-red crescent moon in the sky hadn’t yet faded.


    The whole city of Ino woke up.


    Then the sky was filled with flying blood wings.


    The atmosphere began to tense up.


    Meanwhile, inside the inn,


    Huo’er and Aixi had already made preparations.


    Especially Aixi, who was trembling with excitement.


    But Xue An was still in the room unresponsive.


    Had he not awakened yet?


    The two exchanged nces, about to go into the room to check.
