Chapter 198 Who is in favor and who is against
This group of vampires are the middle-level cadres of the Scarlet Dinner. The upper level uses them to control the thousands of vampires below.
If you want to control the entire Scarlet Dinner, you must make these vampires surrender.
The best method is to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys. The killed chicken can also provide nutrition to the Eternal Blood. The child is almost starving to death.
Just as Shen Cheng was thinking, he suddenly felt a soft and silky touch under his feet.
He lowered his head and looked down, and saw that Madam Yan Rui had taken off her high heels at some point, and her beautiful legs wrapped in black stockings were gently rubbing Shen Cheng's calves, her movements full of teasing.
Shen Cheng didn't expect that Madam Yan Rui would dare to tease him in front of so many people.
My aunt can tolerate it, but my uncle cannot.
He reached out and grabbed the lady's thigh and teased her back.
Madam Yan Rui clamped Shen Cheng's mischievous hands with her plump and round thighs, but her expression was quite serious, making it impossible to tell what the couple was doing.
The vampires were silent for a while, communicating with each other implicitly with their eyes.
"Everyone, I have something to say."
A vampire suddenly banged his hand on the table, drawing everyone's attention to himself.
"We should indeed elect a new minister immediately to stop the current chaos of frequent conflicts, but before that, I have a request."
The vampire looked at Madam Yan Rui and said, "Madam Yan Rui cannot participate in the competition for the position of minister."
The other vampires immediately showed expressions of watching a good show.
The vampire who spoke first was called Chang Qi. He was Ao Liu's confidant and had the most serious conflict with his wife.
Now that he is the first to step forward and launch an attack, the other vampires will naturally not think he is meddling in other people's affairs.
Madam Yan Rui's face was calm. If she had seen Chang Qi opposing her in public like this yesterday, she would have felt angry and embarrassed.
But now she wanted to laugh, and the way she looked at Chang Qi was like she was looking at a clown flying into a flame.
She asked calmly, "I am the deputy minister and the superior of all of you now. Why can't I compete for the position of minister?"
Chang Qi sneered, not giving Madam Yan Rui any face, and said loudly: "Because you are not worthy, your strength is not enough to support your current position. You became the deputy minister by selling women, how can you have the nerve to touch the throne of the minister."
These words completely tore the relationship apart, to the point where reconciliation was impossible.
Madam Yan Rui's eyes turned slightly cold. Just because she had Shen Cheng's support now, it didn't mean she would just sit there and wait if she was humiliated in public.
In her eyes, Chang Qi is already a dead man!
No, it's a dead ghost.
"You're right."
Another vampire named Zhu Yun also launched an attack: "Madam Yan Rui, you are also suspected of killing Lord Yin Hong and other deputy ministers. It is better for you to withdraw from the competition for the minister position until you are cleared of suspicion."
This was a rumor that had been circulating privately in recent days, and now Zhu Yun actually said it in such a formal public occasion.
Like Chang Qi, his true colors were revealed.
The other vampires knew clearly in their hearts that neither Chang Qi nor Zhu Yun were trying to avenge Yin Hong or the other deputy ministers.
The reason they targeted the lady was simply to overthrow the only surviving deputy minister.
Only when all the senior executives die can the middle-level executives like them take over.
Facing the malicious gazes of these vampires, Madam Yan Rui sneered: "Don't you think your logic is stupid? One of you thinks I am not strong enough, and the other thinks I am strong enough to kill Yin Hong. So do I have the strength? Why don't you two fight first?"
It was indeed a very obvious logical error, but Zhu Yun was clearly well prepared.
"Because you are not the one who directly killed Master Yin Hong, but you are the traitor who betrayed him."
Zhu Yun stood up from his seat, looked at the vampires, and said loudly: "Everyone knows that it was Madam Yan Rui who called a meeting that night and summoned all the deputy ministers to the headquarters. Even Lord Yin Hong, who had been in seclusion, showed up."
He stared at Madam Yan Rui and sneered, "In the end, Lord Yin Hong and the other deputy ministers died, but you, Madam Yan Rui, the weakest one, are the only one alive. You didn't even lose a single one of your subordinates. If you're not the traitor, then who is?"
What Zhu Yun said are also doubts that have been discussed privately countless times in the past few days.
The other vampires looked at Madam Yan Rui, wanting to see how she would respond to these questions.
"Pap-pap-pap-pap."
Madam Yan Rui clapped her hands gently and praised, "This is a very good guess, and it is almost the same as the truth."
Chang Qi stared at her fiercely: "You admit it?"
"You've already decided in your hearts that I killed Yin Hong, so what's the point of me admitting it or not?"
Madam Yan Rui leaned back in her chair, crossed her legs, and looked very relaxed: "I have no objection to you asking me to withdraw from the competition for the minister."
All the vampires were stunned. They didn’t expect that Madam Yan Rui would give in so easily?
But she immediately said, "But who can become the minister? You have to ask the opinion of the gentleman next to me."
around you?
The vampires were shocked, and some even rubbed their eyes, wondering if they had seen it wrong.
Only at this moment did they realize that sitting next to Madam Yan Rui was a strange man whom they had never seen before, who appeared out of nowhere like a ghost.
Chang Qi and Zhu Yun, who were the strongest, felt a slight chill in their hearts. They had no idea when this man appeared.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Shen Cheng smiled faintly: "I think Madam Yan Rui should be the minister. Chang Qi and Zhu Yun committed seppuku to apologize. Do you have any objections?"
The vampires were all shocked. Where did this guy come from? Why was he more arrogant than the one who was defending his thesis all day?
Peng!
Chang Qi, who was in a bad temper, slammed the table and stood up, shouting at Shen Cheng: "Where did you come from, you bastard?"
Shen Cheng raised his eyes and looked at him.
The invisible gravity, the mysterious hand, and the telekinesis, the triple attack was directly inflicted on Chang Qi.
Snapped!
Chang Qi was caught off guard and was instantly crushed into a pool of meat paste, with blood and minced meat splattered all over the table and the floor.
The entire conference room was silent for a moment, and then became noisy.
"Shut up!"
Shen Cheng's voice was very low, but to the ears of the other vampires, it sounded like thunder.
Except for Madam Yan Rui, a huge fear instantly surged from the heart of every vampire and violently occupied their brains.
The fear made them pale, their breathing rapid, and their bodies stiff and unable to move.
Zhu Yun, who was stronger, bit his tongue hard and used the pain to successfully break free from the fear caused by the mind trick.
Then he slammed his head against the wall behind him, trying to break through it and escape.
He had realized that this was a trap.
Just like Madam Yan Rui held a meeting a few days ago and tricked all the deputy ministers to the headquarters, she is doing the same thing now.
What’s funny is that even though there had been a lesson, everyone was still fooled.
Bang!
Under everyone's gaze, Zhu Yun banged his head against the wall, but it was like banging his head against steel. He actually broke his head and bled, but the wall remained intact.
Shen Cheng had already covered the walls, doors and windows of the entire conference room with his telekinesis, and would not let any vampire escape.
He raised his hand covered with black armor and snapped his fingers at Zhu Yun, whose head was bleeding.
Black flames ignited from Zhu Yun's body, instantly covering his entire body.
"Ahhh!"
Zhu Yun immediately let out a shrill scream. He fell to the ground and rolled over, trying to struggle and escape, but was held down by Shen Cheng's telekinesis and mysterious hand.
This group of vampires are just ordinary extraordinary people. Even the stronger Chang Qi and Zhu Yun are far inferior to the deputy ministers.
I can only let Shen Cheng control me.
The other vampires watched this scene in horror, including Chang Qi who had recovered from his flesh and blood state.
The power of the black flame was much stronger than simple fire. In just a dozen seconds, Zhu Yun was burned to ashes, leaving him no room for resistance.
The entire conference room was filled with the stench of burnt barbecue.
All the vampires seemed to be under a spell and didn't even dare to blink. They just stared blankly at the ashes on the ground.
If you listen carefully, you can hear their pounding hearts.
Shen Cheng extinguished the black flames, then stood up from his chair and looked down at the group of ghosts.
"I propose that Madam Yan Rui be the minister, and everyone must obey her orders unconditionally. Alternatively, you can choose me."
Shen Cheng put his hands on the table and said slowly: "Who is in favor and who is against?"
The entire conference room was silent. No one dared to speak, and no one dared to meet Shen Cheng's gaze.
"By the way, let me remind you that the person who killed Yin Hong and several deputy ministers."
Shen Cheng pointed at himself: "It's me."
These words were like a bomb dropped into a calm lake, making everyone's head buzz.
All the vampires stared at him in amazement.
Kill all the top executives of the Scarlet Dinner Party, and then come back openly to compete for the minister's position.
Brother, is your name arrogant?
"Does anyone want to avenge Yin Hong?"
Shen Cheng opened his arms and said, "I'm here now. Don't miss it if you pass by. If you miss it, you won't be able to find it again."
The vampires subconsciously looked at the silent Chang Qi.
Chang Qi was sweating profusely and gritted his teeth without saying a word.
Damn it, why are you all looking at me? Do you want me to die?
"Why aren't you talking? Are you all mute?"
Shen Cheng's voice turned cold: "Then let me take a look at you. I am best at treating illnesses."
"I-I agree!"
A vampire raised his hand hastily.
"Me too."
"And I!"
Some people took the lead, and the others seemed to have found a backbone and raised their hands one after another.
Except for Chang Qi, the remaining seven vampires all raised their hands to show their agreement.
Chang Qi hesitated and moved his arms slightly.
Shen Cheng has already announced: "According to the rule that the minority obeys the majority, I now declare that Madam Yan Rui is the new minister of the Red Banquet. Please applaud."
Clap clap clap!
The vampires quickly applauded and looked at Madam Yan Rui with complicated expressions. A thought suddenly came to their minds - Sister, if you had told us earlier that you had such a powerful wild man, we would have all obeyed you. Why did you have to play this Hongmen Banquet with us?
Madam Yan Rui did not feel the slightest bit of joy about becoming a minister.
After Shen Cheng stood up, the lady kept staring at Shen Cheng, her eyes seemed about to melt into water.
He is all in my eyes and heart, there is no room for anything else.
Shen Cheng patted Madam Yan Rui's shoulder to bring her back to her senses: "I'll leave this to you."
Then he pointed at the silent Chang Qi and said, "Follow me."
All the vampires' eyes fell on Chang Qi again, full of gloating.
Chang Qi felt the urge to escape, but Zhu Yun's fate forced him to give up the idea.
He hesitated for a few seconds, gritted his teeth and walked out of the meeting room.
Chang Qi felt that Shen Cheng did not kill him on the spot, but took him out for a private talk, probably to make him loyal to him.
Thinking of this possibility, Chang Qi suddenly felt a sense of pride in his heart - I am not a casual ghost. If you want me to be loyal, you have to show your sincerity.
Led by Shen Cheng, the two came to an empty room.
Looking at Shen Cheng's back, Chang Qi had made a decision.
If Shen Cheng asked to recruit me, I would stick to my principles and never give in easily. I would let him see my strong character.
You have to invite him at least three times before he agrees.
Shen Cheng turned around and stabbed Chang Qi's chest with his right hand at lightning speed.
Chang Qi: “…”
Your way of recruiting is quite unique, isn't it? Why do you start by revealing your true feelings?
Chang Qi's brain froze for a few seconds until a strong pain came over him, bringing him back to his senses from the shock.
"what!?"
Chang Qi opened his mouth in horror. He wanted to resist, but Shen Cheng had already used his telekinesis and mysterious hands to firmly control his body.
The right hand that pierced his chest was rapidly absorbing the source blood in his body.
Chang Qi had no power to resist, and all his source blood was sucked away in the blink of an eye.
The scene was extremely horrifying. He collapsed limply, all the bones and flesh in his body hollowed out, leaving only a twisted and deformed skin.
Shen Cheng closed his eyes and felt the changes in his body.
After Chang Qi's source blood entered his body, the source blood in his body pounced forward fiercely like a shark smelling blood.
It would be more accurate to say that it is swallowing rather than absorbing.
"Ahhh!"
Chang Qi is actually still alive at this moment. His consciousness still remains in his source blood, and he continues to roar.
Shen Cheng's consciousness also sank into his own source blood and began to fight with Chang Qi's consciousness on the spiritual level.
In the boundless spiritual world, Shen Cheng and Chang Qi meet on a narrow road, and neither of them can retreat.
This kind of struggle is purely a test of willpower and mental strength, and no abilities can be used.
Therefore, Shen Cheng must not absorb a vampire whose willpower and mental strength are stronger than his own, otherwise he might be the loser.
Fortunately, Chang Qi was much weaker than Shen Cheng, and the consciousness of both sides collided violently, constantly consuming each other.
Chang Qi was defeated step by step and was unable to resist Shen Cheng's attack at all. However, it was not an easy task to completely eliminate him.
The two sides fought brutally in the spiritual world without stopping for a moment.
