"Mm-hmm..."
"To be forcibly woken up after sleeping for over twenty years."
"How do you intend to compensate me!"
The man gnawed on his fingernail, looking displeased at Wen Li, his blood-red pupils radiating a palpable killing intent that sent a chill down Wen Li's spine.
It was the sensation of being targeted by a creature at the apex of the food chain, signifying an absolute strength advantage the man held over him.
Wen Li looked up at the sky in exasperation. He couldn't understand why simply eliminating a slightly special super-powered individual had summoned such a disaster-class vampire.
He then turned to the man, his expression contorted in ferocity, and said, "Why couldn't you just die peacefully? Why must you all stir up trouble, preventing my plans from proceeding smoothly?"
Wen Li had fallen into an inexpressible frenzy. His meticulously crafted plan was being thwarted step by step, and even his desperate final gamble was inexplicably interrupted, igniting the powder keg of his already precarious sanity.
A raging crimson aura erupted from Wen Li's body. The shockwave generated by his mere exertion of aura almost blew Wen Wen and the others away.
The man's brows twitched, a sinister smile spreading across his face as sharp fangs protruded from his lips.
"It seems I've been out of the picture for too long. A forcefully ascended, unstable Star Realm God dares to fight me!" The Su Dan Novel Network.
"This is good too. After dealing with you, I can go back to sleep."
With a soft shout, the man caused the ten-centimeter layer of blood filling the entire psychiatric hospital to instantly dry up, all of it being absorbed into his body.
Then, the man channeled the crimson power into his arm, vanished in an instant, and appeared before Wen Li, throwing a punch.
Wen Li, unwilling to be outdone, retaliated with a punch of his own. He refused to believe that with the full power of the undead augmenting him, he still couldn't defeat this suddenly appearing stranger.
Their fists collided, the shockwave shattering the ground within a twenty-meter radius. Wen Wen released chains to create a barrier in front of himself, preventing Wu Liugen and Wang Duobao from being obliterated by the combat aftershocks.
After the exchange of blows, Wen Li's arm was broken by the immense force, while the man's arm simply dissolved into a mist of blood.
In this regard, Wen Li's strength was indeed slightly superior, his broken arm slowly regenerating under the influence of the undead power.
However, the man opposite him appeared completely unharmed. The scattered blood mist paused mid-air, then coalesced back onto his shoulder with even greater speed than it had dispersed.
His arm was thus restored to its original state, even his clothes remaining perfectly intact. Without pause, he threw another punch.
Wen Li's arm had only partially recovered at this point, utterly unable to contend with the man's monstrous regenerative speed.
The collision force of these disaster-class beings was astonishingly powerful. If not for the fact that they were within the Empty Nether Domain, the mere clash of these two disaster-class entities could have triggered a catastrophic event.
Watching this visceral, flesh-and-blood clash of disaster-class combatants, Wen Wen's eyes narrowed.
He now knew who the man who appeared later was, and why Chu Wei possessed such peculiar characteristics.
There was only one disaster-class vampire in the Golden Eagle Continent:
The legendary overlord of the Dark Age, master of the Gandor Dynasty, the Blood Emperor Vlad Gandor!
This formidable vampire had appeared in the real world thousands of years ago, being one of the earliest disaster-class beings to descend.
It was highly probable that most of the vampires in the Federation now were his descendants.
During the zenith of the Gandor Dynasty, Vlad was the nightmare of the entire Golden Eagle Continent.
The Church of Glory could only tremble under his iron-fisted rule, and missionaries, if discovered, were subjected to the 'thorn torture' by the empire.
Later, when the Gandor Dynasty perished, Vlad's name vanished from official history.
As the progenitor of vampires, Vlad would often disappear for decades, even centuries.
He would then visit his descendants, letting them know he was still alive.
Wen Wen could never have imagined that Vlad would appear after Chu Wei's death.
Yet, upon reflection, it seemed somewhat logical. This could explain why Vlad only appeared once every few decades.
When he disappeared, he might have existed within someone's body in this form, only emerging when that person died or reached the limit of their lifespan, referring to it as sleep.
The Blood Emperor's most famous ability was that the souls and life force of those he killed would become his own.
For every person he killed, he could cheat death that many times!
Chu Wei's immortality and his ability to absorb life force in his assimilated state likely stemmed from this very ability of the Blood Emperor.
As a historically notorious tyrant, Vlad the Blood Emperor had killed countless people, which was why Chu Wei could die with impunity. No matter how many times he died, it was merely a drop in the ocean compared to the number of people the Blood Emperor had slain.
As a disaster-class being active for millennia, the Blood Emperor's strength was unfathomable, far exceeding what he currently displayed.
Wen Li, who had been so arrogant moments ago, was easily suppressed and became covered in wounds within moments.
Vlad's combat style was simple: trading blows. The injuries he sustained could be healed in moments, while Wen Li's regeneration, even with the aid of undead power, was far slower than his rate of injury.
After all, Wen Li had only reached the disaster-class realm through forced infusion of immense energy, still a step below a true disaster-class powerhouse.
Despite this, Wen Li fought without any hint of fear, attacking with the ferocity of a madman.
He was consumed by rage over his circumstances, an anger that clouded his judgment.
From the moment of his creation, he had felt the injustice of the world.
Why was he the one separated, not the original body?
Why could Wen Wen return to the real world to live a normal life, while he was confined to that psychiatric hospital, associating only with madness and death?
Why, after becoming the most powerful monster in the psychiatric hospital through sheer effort, did he ultimately fail upon seeing Wen Wen again, all because of an unreasonable entity like the Containment Facility?
And why, after enduring ninety-one hellish years on the Death Star, when he finally obtained the opportunity to become a god, did Wen Wen still exist as a thorn in his side?
He had never underestimated Wen Wen; he had always made complete preparations and exerted all his effort.
Yet, fate seemed to mock him, ensuring he could obtain nothing in the end.
Therefore, this time, he would cast all caution aside. What did it matter if a disaster-class powerhouse stood in his way?
He simply wanted to fight with all his might, without restraint!
