Chapter 86

More than half an hour later, Emerson personally drove to a luxurious estate on the outskirts of London. This estate, a property of the British royal family, had stood there for centuries.

Even someone of Emerson's stature, who wielded considerable influence in London, could not freely enter such a place. He slowed down as he approached the estate gates.

A royal guard approached, and Emerson smiled as much as he could, saying, "Good afternoon, I am Emerson, the Commissioner of the London Metropolitan Police."

Due to the exalted status of the royal family, let alone the Commissioner of the London Metropolitan Police, even the Home Secretary would not be allowed entry without prior notification.

The guard took Emerson's credentials, examined them carefully, and then said expressionlessly, "May I ask what brings you here?"

"I'm just here to drop someone off," Emerson replied.

At this moment, Su Yang had already rolled down the car window and frowned, "Why is it so troublesome?"

When the royal guard saw Su Yang, his eyes lit up, and he displayed a completely different, enthusiastic attitude. He first bowed respectfully and then said loudly, "Sir Su Yang, it's you! I apologize for the inconvenience. The Princess has already given instructions. Please treat this place as your home. I will open the gate for you."

After Su Yang agreed to come to Britain, Diana had already made all the necessary arrangements and specifically instructed her subordinates to treat him as the most honored guest, with a level of respect that was not inferior to that accorded to the Queen.

Seeing this, Emerson's last bit of doubt vanished. He was not only shocked but also secretly relieved, grateful that he had been cautious today and had not offended this royal guest from the East. If he had shown any negligence, given Princess Diana's high regard for this person, his political career would likely have ended there.

For this reason, Emerson had already made up his mind to strongly support Richard's appointment as the new Chief of the Police Department upon his return, as a reward for his handling of this matter. In a sense, Richard was the greatest savior of his political life.

As for the two corrupt police officers who had already been arrested, Emerson had at least a hundred ways to make them feel the full force of the Commissioner's wrath.

Su Yang got out of the car and walked into the estate with a leisurely pace, moving at an astonishing speed that defied logic, much to the amazement of the royal guard.

Su Yang did not go directly to Diana but wandered around the estate for a long time. This estate had once been the residence of Evelyn in his previous life.

Here, Su Yang had many beautiful memories with the elf-like beautiful woman. Revisiting this place filled him with many emotions.

Suddenly, a green figure caught his eye. A beautiful woman in a green dress was walking gracefully toward him. Her golden hair cascaded to her waist, and her blue eyes sparkled with vitality. Her fair, jade-like skin and regal demeanor reminded him of Evelyn.

"You must be Diana!" Su Yang took a half-step forward, seemingly crossing a dozen meters in an instant, and stood in front of the woman. His gaze, deep like the sea, fixed on her, and a warm smile spread across his lips.

"Uncle Su."

Although Diana was meeting Su Yang for the first time, she knew as much about him as anyone who was familiar with him. Meeting his gaze, she, who could remain calm even in front of the Queen, felt a hint of unease and anxiety.

"Call me Su Yang. The matters between your mother and me are from a past life."

Because he saw a trace of Evelyn in Diana, Su Yang felt a strong liking for her and even disregarded the generational difference that usually mattered to him.

"Sir Su Yang, can I call you that?"

Diana smiled brightly, walked to Su Yang's side, and curiously looked up at him, "I seem to understand why Mother never married."

Su Yang's gaze fixed on a small red mole between Diana's eyebrows, and he nodded with satisfaction, smiling faintly, "Evelyn's life-bound holy artifact, 'Tears of Jehovah,' has been passed to you. You must be the current royal saint, right?"

"Yes, Mother passed 'Tears of Jehovah' to me on her deathbed," Diana said with a hint of sadness. "If not for that, Mother might have lived a few more years."

The British royal family had been able to contend with the powerful vampires mainly due to the three holy artifacts passed down through generations and the Temple Knights with extraordinary powers.

'Tears of Jehovah' was one of the three holy artifacts and a symbol of the royal saint.

In addition, there were two other holy artifacts, the 'Holy Light Scepter' and the 'Sword in the Stone,' which were the strongest forces against the vampires.

"Tell me, why did Xiao Yi die? I'm here to settle a debt," Su Yang said, a fierce look flashing in his eyes as he gazed into the distance.

The sun set, and the afterglow seemed to sprinkle gold dust, making the world dazzling. Su Yang and Diana had been walking together in the garden for a long time.

"Those annoying little bats..."

Su Yang sighed lightly, his eyes slightly moist. "Xiao Yi was a good girl, always thinking of others, but she wasn't weak. The one who could inflict a fatal wound on her wouldn't be just any ordinary vampire."

Diana replied, "During the peak of the vampire clans, there were thirteen families, but now only three remain. However, the number of vampire holy artifacts has not decreased. A few were lost over the centuries. Over a decade ago, they used six vampire holy artifacts to fight over the body of the vampire progenitor, Caine. Mother was injured by the combined attack of three dukes, each wielding 'Key of Malice,' 'Slaughter Knife,' and 'Illusion Mirror.'"

"Bak, Kain, and Hunter, those three guys?" Su Yang frowned and said coldly.

"Yes."

Diana nodded and added, "From what I know, they have likely advanced to the Prince stage, making them much more powerful than before."

"Even if they are the progenitors of the vampires, so what? They will not be forgiven for killing the woman I loved."

Su Yang's tone was casual, but the unwavering determination in his voice conveyed his extreme anger.

Although Diana was aware of Su Yang's formidable strength, she had only known about the battle over sixty years ago. She reminded him, "Sir Su Yang, although the vampire princes are only one rank higher than the dukes, there is a significant difference in power, especially since they each possess a vampire holy artifact."

"I understand your concern."

Su Yang said, "Tell me, besides these three, who else must be held responsible for Xiao Yi's death?"

Diana hesitated for a moment and then said, "Perhaps the soon-to-be-revived vampire progenitor, Caine, is the biggest culprit in Mother's death."

"Can he really be revived?" Su Yang recalled the battle at the Tower of London in his previous life and was slightly taken aback.

"Yes."

Diana affirmed, "And once revived, he will be even more powerful than before. The last time he was nailed to the top of the Tower of London by the previous Arthur and the twelve Temple Knights, he only used a third of his full strength due to some reason."

Recalling the battle with Caine, even with Su Yang's pride, he had to admit that at the peak of his eighth life, he was only slightly stronger than the vampire progenitor. If not for Evelyn using 'Tears of Jehovah' to restrain him, he might not have been able to inflict a serious injury on Caine with only minor injuries, allowing the previous Arthur and the twelve Temple Knights to nail him down.

Although Diana said that Caine only used a third of his strength back then, the current Su Yang was not intimidated. Having entered the realm of cultivation, he was far stronger than in his previous life.

"Have you heard of the DR organization?" Su Yang suddenly changed the topic.

Diana was initially taken aback but then nodded, "It's a mysterious organization with deep ties to the vampires. According to my intelligence, its headquarters is in the United States, but its influence spans the globe. The leader of this organization is a powerful being, not inferior to the vampire progenitor. However, his origin and identity are unknown."

Su Yang pondered for a moment and looked at Diana, "Inform the current Arthur to prepare the Temple Knights for the final battle. This time, I will eradicate the vampires completely, leaving none behind!"

Even knowing Su Yang's formidable abilities, Diana found it hard to believe that he could eradicate the vampires, who had existed for thousands of years. Even at the peak of the British royal family's power, they could only suppress the vampires, not eradicate them.

No matter how strong Su Yang was, he was just one person. How could he achieve this?

Su Yang's perception was sharp, and he could see the doubt in Diana's eyes. He said calmly, "Give me a way to contact you at any time, or a way to contact the current Arthur directly. The true fighting force of the British royal family, besides you as the saint, revolves around him. During this period, I will launch a clan-eradicating war against the vampires in my personal name. You will be responsible for the cleanup."

"A one-man clan-eradicating war!"

Diana was surprised and paused before continuing, "Sir Su Yang, I know you are an extraordinary person with unimaginable abilities, but the vampires have accumulated power for thousands of years. It's not something one person can handle. If you allow it, I think Arthur and the Temple Knights could follow you, at least as support."

Diana was afraid that Su Yang might put himself in danger while avenging his mother, so she finally expressed her concerns tactfully.

Su Yang did not respond immediately but smiled and lightly patted Diana's shoulder, "In the past, your mother trusted me unconditionally, and I never let her down. Now, can you also trust me unconditionally?"

Meeting Su Yang's eyes, which sparkled with a strange light, Diana felt a sense of security and an unprecedented sense of closeness, as if the man before her had the power to do anything.

After a long moment, Diana recovered from her shock and nodded earnestly, "Sir Su Yang, in the past, my mother trusted you, and now, I can do the same."
