In the martial arts studio, Lu Yao recalled the last vampire he killed was incredibly tenacious. To be on the safe side, he decided to prepare a "big surprise".
He found three wine bottles and took out fifty taels of silver, asking Liao Ya, "Senior sister, can you help me turn these pieces of silver into small beans?"
Liao Ya complied immediately, her delicate hands transforming into pincers as she shaped the already soft high-purity silver into the size of beans.
Lu Yao gathered the now-useless small-caliber bullets, unscrewed the tops, poured the gunpowder into the wine bottles, and mixed in the silver beans, creating homemade bombs.
Once detonated, countless silver beans would scatter and shoot out in all directions!
The sisters understood the purpose of these devices and felt distressed, "Fifty taels of silver... you're really willing to spend."
Lu Yao was exceptionally proud, "Just a small sum. With these, even if the machine gun doesn't kill it, there's nothing to fear."
With this preparation, nothing could go wrong.
Lu Yao said, "Only after wiping out these treacherous villains can we practice martial arts in peace."
Each sister picked up a homemade bomb and nodded gravely.
Just then, they suddenly heard the sound of various musical instruments playing, growing louder as it approached the gate.
The three exchanged glances, sensing something was off. Lu Yao immediately grabbed the machine gun, while the sisters went out to check.
They saw a group of people tied with red cloth, carrying a sedan chair; it was a marriage proposal procession!
But the four strong men leading the group wore cold smiles that didn't resemble those of people here to celebrate a joyful event.

Upon seeing each other, Liao Ya gritted her teeth, "Wu Hailong!"
They saw a man with an icy demeanor and graying temples—none other than the Hailong Gang leader, Wu Hailong, a warrior with Blood-Exchange Mastery.
Wu Hailong remained silent, while his three adopted sons stepped forward.
The River Flipping Dragon, his hair reaching his shoulders, stood on one foot atop the sedan, scratching his itching groin as he laughed, "Today, we come to propose marriage. All three of us brothers admire Master Liao and wish to bask in her grace, which is why we've come together to propose."
The Sky Pouncing Dragon and the other brother chuckled lewdly in agreement, "Why doesn't Master Liao get into the sedan right now and join us in eternal bliss~"
They burst into loud laughter together, causing tiles around them to shake and dust to fall, clearly all in the Marrow-Cleansing Realm.
Wu Hailong let out a sneer, then said to Liao Ya, "Your father severely injured me back then, made me watch my ship sink with my own eyes, and dashed my hopes of advancing to the Innate Realm. This vendetta must be settled. Hehe... I have arranged a nice place for you."
Liao Yajiao retorted, "You brought it upon yourself! By relying on opium smuggling to rise to power, who knows how many people you've harmed. If someone like you advanced to the Innate Realm, that would truly be an injustice!"
"Hahaha..." Wu Hailong suddenly burst into laughter. His face was expressionless, and his narrow eyes were filled with chilling light, laughing in an extremely creepy manner.
"A martial artist sheds their mortal coil and is no longer a mere mortal. Yet you always constrain your thinking within the human perspective, which is a grave mistake."
Upon hearing this, Li Pei hesitated no longer. She waved her hand, and amidst the sound of many guns being cocked, she said coldly, "Sir Wu, this is the land of the Shun Dynasty, you may leave."
She also surged her Inner Breath, looking as if she was truly prepared for battle.
Wu Hailong gave a cold glance around before respectfully turning towards an exceptionally large car in the distance, approximating a bow with his hand on his chest.
The car slowly approached; its paint was gleaming, and its emblem looked like a bat.
The driver was a dark-skinned man from Tianzhu. He hurriedly got out of the car, opened the door, then lay on the ground for the passenger to step on him as they descended.
The newcomer was none other than—the Vampire William. He was still dressed in a black tailcoat, one hand covering his mouth with a handkerchief, but his eyes were blood-red.
"Most esteemed and charming Commandery Princess, seeking love from an employee of my company hasn't violated your nation's laws, has it?"
Li Pei coldly replied, "Miss Liao Ya is an official of our country. She has been harassed by your people. Please leave immediately."
William calmly looked at Li Pei, then in the blink of an eye, startling everyone present, suddenly appeared behind her.
Including Li Pei herself, no one saw how he moved there!
William reached out and lifted her hair, lamenting, "You've been under a lot of stress lately, anxious, and your hair quality and scent have both diminished slightly..."
Li Pei's palms came together like a knife and she swung fiercely, tearing through the air with a piercing sound aimed at William, but she hit nothing.
William somehow had already returned to his original place and continued, "You should cherish your wonderful body, it's God's gift."
Li Pei's expression was difficult to read; her opponent's speed was much faster than her own!
William gracefully tipped his hat in a bow and then said, "Then~ we shall take our leave for now."
He then looked meaningfully at Liao Ya and whispered with a hint of significance, "Perhaps we will meet again soon."
After speaking, he turned and got into the car, leaving, and the members of the Hailong Gang also followed him in retreat.
Wu Hailong said coldly, "I didn't expect the Liao Family to be so highly valued by the Commandery Princess, but that doesn't matter. Soon they'll be too busy to care."
