After an hour.
Butler Si is serving Sivan who is sitting at a crystal dining table as he ate some food.
He is calm and is not speaking anything. He elegantly finished his food and heaved a sigh before he started drinking some wine.
"I have to say, this Sam really knows how to enjoy his life. Eating such a food and drinking such a wine every day. This must be dream of a lot of people."
He spoke as he finished the jar of wine.
Butler Si looked a little concerned as he looked at the young master.
"What did the healers say?" Sivan asked.
"This body is also a vampire and they also noticed the genetics of different beasts. He is a beast cultivator and a vampire at the same time."
"Vampire? Really? But I am pretty sure this guy is alive. Vampires are cold and dead creatures." Sivan said in confusion.
"Yes, Young master. But there are some rare cases. Vampires make newborns while procreating with humans and some times other species. When the baby is born and grew to a certain age, the vampire bloodline will suck the rest of the bloodline of the body. But in some very rare cases, the vampire bloodline wouldn't be able to take over which will make them part vampire and part living."
"So, Sam is the son of a vampire? I don't believe that we have any information regarding this."
"No, it seems like he has hidden this very well."
Sivan stayed silent and Butler Si, hesitated before continuing.
"Young master, this is going to be a bit dangerous. Vampire instincts are hard to control. You weren't even able to control just with a little scent of blood. You cannot suppress it and once you take in blood you would get addicted to it.
You would want to have blood for every meal."
"What is so bad about it? It is not like I can only survive on the blood of cultivators, I can also just take in the blood of other creatures like beasts.
This is also a great situation if you ask me. I can drink blood of extremely high level beasts, feast on my meat and increase my cultivation faster than ever.
This is the perfect scenario."
"Yes, young master. It is indeed a lot easier to consume blood and increase your cultivation, but you wouldn't be able to control the urge to take in the blood of cultivators if you start consuming beast blood. It would just appear that much more enticing."
"What is your point?"
"Young Master, don't take this the wrong way. Your current situation is not exactly great in the clan now. You got everything you have because you were no threat to anyone. All this while, you were just some cripple who had a good birth.
You were smart and calculating and the clan left the strategies to you, but you were completelydevoid of any chance to get into the race of the clan head.
But now, you have this perfect body. It is known to everyone in the clan. The elements, the perfect physique and even a full fledged divine dimension with such a rich herb garden and orchards.
You have everything, even without the beasts, you suddenly came back into the race.
I am sure that we can handle ourselves, but the vampire bloodline is a hindrance, if we go down that path, you will lose control once in a while and consume blood of cultivators, I have no problem with that, I will even collect blood for you, but if any other clan members find out, they will use this to suppress you."
Sivan thought for a moment and said.
"We will cross that bridge when we get there. Right now, I want to be strong."
Meanwhile.
Sam followed the sled marks for over a few hours, before he saw some signs of people.
There is a large forest, but it is not exactly dense, the trees are far apart enough for the sled marks and there are more and more. It seems like the whole forest is extremely active.
He slowly walked for a few minutes, before he finally saw someone. A young woman is riding a sled with four snow wolves dragging it as they ran after an Ice Bear.
It seems like she is hunting the bear.
The bear is fast and it is using its most basic attack. The Frost fur, an attack that would shoot the small thin ice needles formed from the edges of its fur.
It is just throwing the fur at the wolves and the sled rider without even turning back.
It kept on running.
Sam leaned against the tree as he looked at the rider and the first thought that came to his mind is that she is weak.
She is not even a cultivator of Astral Plane. She is a mortal plane transcendent cultivator at middle stage and the bear is barely at the late stage.
But the wolves are also at the middle stage, which makes the bear a relatively easy prey with so many predators following it. The only problem is the bear is really, really fast. It is faster than wolves and it is extremely familiar with the surroundings.
It is making use of the terrain perfectly.
Sam just sat against the tree as he looked at the hunt for the next fifteen minutes.
For some reason, the two parties are not leaving the forest and kept on fighting within the forest.
After some time, they finally noticed Sam's presence. Currently, Sam is using a cloak to cover his face.
He just looked like a normal cripple with a pair of crutches beside his side. But he just sat there without any worry. He didn't bother with the surroundings and just watched the two of them fight it out.
But neither the cultivator nor the beasts realized what he is doing there and neither do they have any idea about what his cultivation level is.
For them he is just a normal person. In fact a normal cripple. In their opinion, no matter what he is, he has no business being in this place.
The lady on the sled suddenly let two of the four wolves go and they covered two routes of the bear and the only route left for the bear is to go straight and that is where Sam is sitting now.
"Get away from there."
The lady yelled loudly, but Sam just sat there without any worry. As the bear charged at him, the lady took out a spear and got ready to throw it at the bear, but she is afraid that Sam would die of the spear attack.
"Hey, you bloody cripple. Get out of here, or you would definitely die here."
She yelled out angrily.
Sam looked at the bear that is right in front of him and looked into its eyes as he released his killing intent.
All of a sudden, the bear suddenly halted in its tracks in fear and even went so far as to go in the same direction in which the girl is coming.
The lady finally felt relieved, but also shocked. But she didn't care and threw the spear at the bear while the two wolves came from the side and tackled it down.
The lady finally finished the hunt and Sam also stood up as he slowly walked towards her.
"Hello, I am Sam. Can you lead me out of this forest? I am kind of lost here."
The lady looked at Sam weirdly. She wanted to sense his cultivation, but she couldn't find a hint of energy from his body.
"What is a cripple like you doing here?"
She doesn't mean to be rude, but this is the most respect she could muster. After all, Sam almost destroyed her hunt in her own opinion.
She doesn't want to kill someone unnecessarily but the bear is extremely agile, if she had thrown the spear and the bear had dodged, things wouldn't be the same. He would have died a tragic death. She doesn't want that on her conscience.
Sam didn't care about her disrespect so he just casually replied.
"As I said before, I am lost here. Can you lead me out of here? Even pointing a direction is fine."
She just pointed towards one direction and Sam started walking out of there.
"Thank you so much. If we meet again, I will repay the favor."
With that, Sam walked and soon he found more tracks of the wolves and the sleds.
The lady even crossed him on the way.
After two hours, Sam finally arrived at a small village. It is full of igloos, there are barely even any stone houses.
The village is not exactly large, there are only a half a dozen streets in total and around a few hundred people might living here.
He went to the only restaurant in the village and ordered some food and some wine as he heard the news about the village.
