1347 Chapter 34 Xi Xue Love story
"You done?" Xi Xue knocked on the door to Bíng Huo's bedroom area. The man already changed back to his adult form and he wore his usual red-black clothes.
His hair was tied in a ponytail, and he hid his red eyes. The man had normal brown eyes now.
"I'm done. But why?" Bíng Huo tied her hair into a bun and wore her man clothes. As usual, she put on the illusion ring so no one could see her true gender.
"You said we don't have class today, right? How about we play in the town?" Xi Xue crossed his arms and whistled. He leaned on the door, blocking Bíng Huo's way.
"...good idea but I thought you want to know more about this school?" Bíng Huo put on her shoes and headed toward the door to go out of her bedroom area.
She pushed the door but it won't budge.
'What the…'
"I already met that ice eagle. I'm not interested in anything else." Xi Xus shrugged. He still leaned on the door until Bíng Huo shouted.
"What are you doing in front of my door?! I just installed it there and- "
"Hey, hey, don't be so salty, ah." Xi Xue hurriedly moved away and opened the door. The sight of Bíng Huo pouting and sulking was what the man saw behind the door.
'Oops….she looks angry.'
"Ugh, I don't mean anything, okay? I just want to lean on your door." Xi Xue stepped back and sighed. He looked at Bíng Huo who was putting on an aggrieved face.
'...why is she so cute even when she's angry?'
Xi Xue chuckled and inhaled deeply. "Hey, you can't be mad at me just because I stand in front of your door, right?" The man tilted his head.
Bíng Huo went silent before throwing away her face. She harrumphed and mumbled, "You are cuter when you are a child."
Xi Xue's sharp ears caught this and he couldn't help but laugh. "If I use my child form, people will think I'm your little brother or something." The man shrugged.
"And I don't want that."
"Why not? It will be less suspicious to walk with a boy than with a young man around my age." Bíng Huo puckered her lips.
Somehow she already felt comfortable around Xi Xue even after knowing he's a vampire.
"Mn, using that form takes too much energy. I might suddenly die. You don't mind that?" Xi Xue lowered his eyes and acted like a pitiful being. "You just want to use my power. You meanie."
The way Xi Xue blamed Bíng Huo made the girl want to punch the guy but she held back.
'Calm down, he's a sacred beast. I won't win against him.'
At the thought of the sacred beast, Bíng Huo suddenly paused. She looked at Xi Xue and asked, "By the way, I forgot I have asked you this or not…"
"Yes?" Xi Xue tilted his head while crossing his arms in front of his chest.
"What kind of sacred beast are you? A wolf? Demon?" Bíng Huo blinked innocently.
'His eyes are red so he must be a weird beast.
Hearing this question, Xi Xue stared blankly at the girl before laughing hard. "Hahahah! You look so curious!"
'Will she run away if I tell her I'm a vampire? Vampire race is very scarce in this world, after all. Maybe they shouldn't have existed here…'
"Of course I'm curious. It's you we are talking here." Bíng Huo gawked. "I'm curious what kind of sacred beast is this friendly toward humans." The girl scratched her cheek.
'Maybe Xi Xue is just kind?'
Xi Xue's eyes turned dark. He suddenly approached the girl but Bíng Huo didn't flinch. She just looked up at the guy, staring into his eyes provocatively.
"Well, you see." Xi Xue's voice turned hoarse.
'It's not like I'm kind. I have killed so many humans and drained their blood but...I don't know why I can't do that to you.'
Xi Xue squeezed his eyes and suddenly opened it. His pupil turned red and small fangs popped out of his mouth. The man leisurely opened his mouth to show his fangs.
"See here? This is fang. Now you see. Black hair, red eyes and fang…" Xi Xue smirked. His lips were curved slyly. "Can you guess what beast I am?"
Bíng Huo's breath stilled. Her face turned hot and her heart pounds fast.
'Why...is he more handsome in this state? Am I crazy? He looks scary but...handsome ah!'
Bíng Huo gritted her teeth and shook her head. "I don't know. Maybe a wild panther?"
'Black and red eyes. What else?'
Hearing the girl's guess, Xi Xue held back his laughter. His shoulders shook hard but he didn't say anything. "I think you won't know as I'm an ancient race."
The man walked closer to Bíng Huo and cornered her to the door behind.
"Let's see. I am...a vampire. A rare breed. Maybe only one or two beasts like me live in this world." Xi Xue grinned, showing his two little fangs. His fangs glinted under the sunlight, showing how sharp it was.
Bíng Huo clutched her chest. She stared at Xi Xue's red eyes, unable to look away.
'Vampire? That blood-sucking creature recorded in the book of the dangerous and ancient beast? One of the most powerful yet rare sacred beasts??'
Bíng Huo didn't speak for a few seconds until she inhaled deeply.
"If you are a vampire...why can you go out in the day? You also can eat garlic…" The girl squinted.
'Is he a new type of vampire?'
