At that moment, he suddenly felt lightness in his body, and he was violently thrown more than ten meters away, but he landed gently on the ground without any injury.
Augustus looked up in surprise, only to see a figure in a black robe appear before him, standing in front of Valentine and Molin.
Valentine asked harshly. For some reason, although he couldn't see the face of the person in the black robe clearly and didn't detect any presence, a feeling of fear kept welling up inside him uncontrollably.
It was as if Lord Andrei himself were standing before him.
No, the fear was even stronger than what Lord Andrei had ever elicited!
And now, it seemed obvious that the person was on Augustus's side.
Valentine trusted his instincts and had made up his mind, if the black-robed person showed any signs of making a move, he would immediately turn and flee.
Molin, however, didn't share the same feeling. She frowned at the black-robed figure who had suddenly appeared, somewhat taken aback.
She hadn't expected that in such a desolate place, there would be others meddling in their affairs.
Just as Molin was about to say something, Lis, transformed into the black-robed figure, slightly lifted his head.
Valentine, standing beside Molin, had a frightened look on his face, wanting to say something but stopped midway.
With a soft sound, Valentine's head burst open like a watermelon, with crimson blood and ghastly white brain matter scattering everywhere, some even splattering on Molin.
Molin was stunned for a second, feeling the warmth on her face.
Only then did she notice Valentine's headless corpse slowly collapsing onto the ground beside her, void of any breath of life.
With such an injury, it wasn't just the two of them who had no chance of survival, even a Gold Level vampire would have no possibility of surviving.
It was the man in the black robe before her who had done this, but how had he made his move?
Fear instantly filled Molin's heart, and she didn't bother saying more before she immediately turned and fled.
Lis, in the guise of the black-robed figure, just stood there, quietly watching the female vampire's retreat without making another move.
Augustus, who stood behind Lis, was equally astonished. Valentine, with whom he had been fighting for a long time, had just died here.
He hadn't even seen the black-robed figure make a move.
This dramatic contrast made Augustus reach up to rub his eyes, looking towards the black-robed figure with reverence.
With such strength, it wasn't just the Gold Level, he might even be stronger than Lord Angela of the Blood Queen.
Although it was strange that the black-robed figure didn't kill Molin, Augustus didn't recklessly ask why.
He was still wondering why the black-robed person had intervened to help him, as he didn't remember knowing such a powerful figure before.
"Your name is Augustus?"
After Lis left a mark on Molin and let her go, he turned to look at Augustus.
"Yes, Lord," Augustus replied, bowing his head respectfully as a demonstration of reverence to a superior.
"Why were those two vampires chasing you?"
After hesitating for a moment, Augustus decided to tell the truth, but he omitted the part about Angela and the Blood Clan.
Even though the person before him had saved his life, he was unclear about the relationship between this person and Lord Angela. Being cautious, it seemed better to keep it to himself for now.
Unlike before, he was certain that Lord Angela was much stronger than Andrei and thus hadn't thought too much of mentioning Angela's name.
But now with this enigmatic powerhouse, speaking recklessly might bring trouble to Lord Angela.
After listening to Augustus's story, Lis nodded, confirming that it was similar to what he had guessed.
Lis also left a mark on Augustus and nodded, saying, "Is Angela currently in Acot City?"
Augustus was surprised. He hadn't expected the person to know the name of Lord Angela.
How did the black-robed person know of his connection to Lord Angela? Could it be the things he had said to Valentine and Molin had been overheard by the black-robed person?
Augustus was uneasy, unsure of how to answer.
Noting Augustus's reaction, Lis didn't mind and continued, "When you find Angela, tell her to stay in Acot City for now; if I have time, I'll come to see her."
Having said that, Lis didn't delay any further and left the place in a flash.
With Lis's departure, the ravaged canyon lay in ruins, Valentine's body resting on the ground, while Augustus stood there, dazed.
He had actually survived?
Augustus shook his head, discarding the unreal feeling from his mind.
He swiftly attended to Valentine's body, extracting the heart core filled with vibrant blood energy, buried Valentine's body properly, and then set out for Acot City.
He didn't know the black-robed person's intent; it was best to inform Lord Angela of these events as soon as possible.
How was Lord Angela doing now?
Augustus, having narrowly escaped death, did not linger and hurried through the night.
Lis, who had rescued Augustus, didn't stay long and rushed back to Cecil's side.
After resting for a night, the two of them headed towards Acot City.
In the afternoon, Lis and Cecil finally reached the Royal Capital of Bolin Kingdom, Acot City.
Acot City nestled in a serene and magnificent valley, with a crystalline river flowing from the distance through the valley, winding like a silver ribbon past the city, its glistening surface reflecting the blue of the sky and the white of the clouds, singing an eternal melody with its murmuring sound, giving the city a symphony of eternity.
