It's normal for a villain like me to subdue a corrupted female protagonist, right?

"So, this is the only thing we can do. She is my daughter, and I feel sorry for her, but sealing the key to evil is the mission of the Lilith royal family throughout the ages. It is our destiny."

"After Momo was born, the originally fierce and violent Lilith XXIV suddenly became gentle, and her maternal love also appeared. However, we cannot let Momo be imprisoned in the blood pool with her, so we have to cruelly separate the mother and daughter."

"I will never forget the scene when she knelt in front of me and begged me to keep Momo."

"I made a promise with her that as long as she stayed obediently in the blood pool and let the power of the blood slowly wash away her resentment, then she and her daughter would be reunited. In order to see Momo, she became very quiet after that and stayed quietly in the blood pool. Her resentment was slowly being washed away. More than ten years have passed, and she is basically normal now. In a few more years, she will be able to leave the blood pool completely and see Momo again."

Chapter 583: The Vanishing Winter Snow

"But she was bewitched by Mo Kai and drank the poison from the poison bottle, which restored her ferocity, making it even stronger than before. Now she has escaped from the blood pool, and she will become a terrifying demon. Mo Kai deceived her by saying that you controlled Mo Mo, which is why I told her not to let her find you, otherwise you are doomed."

"My final task for you is to find the sacred artifact, the Illusion Mirror. Only the Illusion Mirror can restore Lilith XXIV. Then find the Corpse Hand and destroy it if you can. If you can't destroy it, then you can't let it fall into Mokai's hands. Otherwise, if Cain III is resurrected through it, the world will face a huge disaster."

"If... if Cain III is unfortunately resurrected, you may have to sacrifice yourself. Please find the executioner's axe and kill Cain III."

"The execution axe can instantly increase your strength tenfold, but you will bleed profusely during its use, eventually leading to your complete blood loss. However, it is the only way to quickly increase your strength and become a match for Cain III. Of course, this is only the worst-case scenario; as long as you can prevent his resurrection, everything will be fine."

"The above is the task, and the last part is my request to you."

"First, take good care of Momo. No matter what, don't abandon her. Protect her and don't let anyone know that she has the key to evil within her. Otherwise, they will risk Momo's life to get the key. If you two get together, because of the mixed human blood, the Lilith bloodline will end in her generation. I won't selfishly ask you to leave her and not get together with her. If it weren't for the misunderstanding with Tang Lei back then, the Lilith bloodline might have ended in my generation."

"Secondly, please don't hurt my daughter. You must help her recover from her trauma. This is a mother's plea to you."

"I promise you."

He Qinzhou took a deep breath and made a promise.

"Cough cough cough..."

Upon hearing He Qinzhou's promise, Dongxue smiled knowingly, but then coughed.

"Don't speak. How can I help you? With blood?"

He Qinzhou asked.

“When life essence and blood are exhausted, no amount of fresh blood will help.”

"Unless we can find the Spirit Staff, one of the Thirteen Sacred Artifacts, to restore my abilities, that's impossible. Silly boy, don't waste your energy. Let Momo go to Gangsang; I still have something to say to her."

He Qinzhou clenched his fists tightly. Only now did he realize how powerless he was.

He watched as Dongxue's life was about to vanish, and there was nothing he could do.

All He Qinzhou could do now was to go along with Dongxue's wishes, open the door, and call Momo, who was sitting in the living room, in.

After entering the anchorage, Momo looked at Dongxue but didn't say anything.

"MoMo, don't blame me."

I blame you.

"You said you were, but I can tell you're angry just by looking at your pouting lips."

"Can you please stop talking!"

Suddenly, Momo roared, tears streaming down her face, "Your life essence is exhausted! If you keep talking like this, you'll only disappear faster! Can't you just shut up?!"

Dongxue listened obediently, a smile appearing on her face. Instead of responding to Momo, she said directly, "Momo, I am now handing over the position of patriarch of the Lilith clan to you."

Just as he finished speaking, a blinding red light made He Qinzhou unable to open his eyes, lasting for more than a minute before everything returned to normal.

By this time, Momo was already in tears.

“Girl, don’t cry. You are now the patriarch of the Lilith clan. The Lilith royal mark on your head has been activated. As long as the clansmen see the activated mark, they will know that you are the new patriarch. They may not obey you now, but you cannot back down. You must know that you are a direct descendant of Lilith. Only you are worthy to be the leader of the Lilith clan, and even the entire vampire clan. You have a long, long road ahead. Keep going, my granddaughter.”

"I don't want to be a clan leader, don't disappear!"

Dongxue smiled and looked at He Qinzhou, "You brat, give me the knife."

He Qinzhou didn't know what Dongxue wanted to do, but he tried his best to accommodate her.

Dongxue took the knife from He Qinzhou's hand and cut off a small section of her hair.

"My remaining strength can only keep this lock of hair from disappearing. When you have time, take it to Silver Moon Village in the southernmost part of Guangdong Province and bury it with that idiot Tang Lei's ashes... in... one..."

The last word "qi" was not finished. The winter snow turned into tiny red stars and slowly drifted away. Just as she said, all she had left behind was this lock of hair.

In the end, she returned to the dust of nature.

"Go back to me, you fool. Don't disappear, please go back to me, I beg you."

Finally, Momo let out a heart-wrenching cry as she rushed forward, trying to stop Dongxue from disappearing.

But doing so only makes the little red star disappear even faster.

Momo tried desperately to grab the red stars, but even though she managed to grasp them, when she opened her palm, there was nothing there.

A few minutes later, Red Star completely disappeared, leaving nothing behind except a tuft of silver hair on the bed.

If it weren't for this lock of silver hair, He Qinzhou would have doubted whether Dongxue was even real.

A man doesn't easily shed tears, but at this moment, a single tear silently slid down He Qinzhou's cheek.

"Come back, come back."

Momo knelt on the ground and cried loudly.

Seeing Momo like this, He Qinzhou was also heartbroken.

But the winter snow has disappeared and will never return.

The only thing she left behind was this lock of silver hair.

He Qinzhou walked to Momo's side, pulled her up, and hugged her tightly.

"Idiot, I'm in so much pain, so much suffering. Why, why did she have to disappear? I don't want to be a clan leader anymore, I don't want to be a king, I want her back."

Momo threw herself into He Qinzhou's arms, crying as she spoke.

“Girl, don’t think about it anymore, don’t cry, be strong. Let’s put Dongxue’s hair away properly. When we have the chance, we’ll send it to Silvermoon Village according to her last wishes, so she can be buried with her beloved.”

He Qinzhou said while patting Momo's head.

It's impossible for him to go to Silvermoon Village right now because he still has many things to take care of, so he will absolutely not leave Kyoto City.

After tidying up Dongxue's hair, he pulled Momo back to the living room. Momo had tears in the corners of her eyes and rested her head in He Qinzhou's arms without saying a word.

He Qinzhou remained silent; both of them wanted some quiet time, as He Qinzhou was also deeply affected by Dongxue's death.

Chapter 584: Tian Xin's Crisis

Although the woman wanted to kill him when they first met, it was ultimately just a misunderstanding.

Afterwards, it was entirely thanks to Dongxue's generosity that she exhausted her blood power to cleanse his marrow, making his body stronger, which helped He Qinzhou a great deal.

The two sat there like that until the afternoon.

As the women gradually left work and went home, they opened the door and were somewhat surprised to see Momo leaning against He Qinzhou's chest.

After all, Momo rarely has such quiet moments.

"MoMo, you..."

Li Jingjing walked over, about to make a few teasing remarks, but when she saw Momo's red and swollen eyes, she was stunned.

What's wrong with this girl? She seems to be crying really hard.

"Shhh."

The women looked at each other, and each of them saw a hint of confusion in each other's eyes.

Li Qingqing sat down next to He Qinzhou as his representative, gently touched his arm, and asked in a low voice, "Honey, what's wrong with her?"

"Her maternal grandmother passed away."

He Qinzhou glanced at Momo, then responded in a low voice.

"Ah~ How could that be? Wait, when did she have a maternal grandmother? I don't recall you mentioning that."

"Li Jingjing asked."

"Let's explain this later. Let's calm her down first."

He Qinzhou patted Momo's head and said.

"I went to cook."

Mu Yuxin quickly replied.

"Sister Yuxin, let me help you."

"I am coming too."

Upon hearing Mu Yuxin's words, the women all offered to help her.

At this point, they also realized that they should stop chattering in He Qinzhou's ear.

"Then, I'll help too."

Li Jingjing was also very quick-witted, and she immediately followed the other women into the kitchen.

Seeing these girls, He Qinzhou smiled slightly. They were so harmonious; he was truly fortunate!

Having witnessed the entire process of the winter snow disappearing, Tian Xin knew how devastating this was for Momo.

Therefore, she made an excuse that she found there were no seasonings in the kitchen and had to go out to buy some, but in reality she wanted to buy some gifts to appease Momo.

Half an hour later, Tian Xin was happily walking home after choosing her gifts when a man suddenly walked towards her and bumped into her.

"Xin Xin, what are you doing here?"

The person who came was Gu Jian. He originally planned to stop Tian Xin at the door when she got off work tonight, then take her away and lure He Qinzhou out.

After waiting all day, I found out that Tian Xin didn't go to work today. I thought I had no chance today, but I ran into her by chance on my way home.

"It's you?"

Tian Xin felt a surge of displeasure upon seeing the man opposite her.

She really doesn't have a good impression of ancient buildings.

Although they often played together when they were young, Tian Xin deliberately distanced herself from Gu Jian after he confessed his feelings to her.

"Xin Xin, how can you walk on the street alone? It's too dangerous. Come on, I'll take you home."

As Gu Jian spoke, he reached out to pull Tian Xin.

Gu Jian had already devised a plan: he would take Tian Xin away under the pretext of sending her home, then lure He Qinzhou out so that Ying Tianqing could deal with him.

Now that He Qinzhou is dead, wouldn't I be able to do whatever I want to Tian Xin tonight?

The thought filled him with excitement.

"What are you doing? Get away from me, don't touch me."

Tian Xin flung her hand away and pushed the ancient building aside.

She knew that Gu Jian, despite his seemingly glamorous appearance, was actually involved in some shady dealings.

She just lacked evidence; otherwise, given her righteous nature, she would have arrested the other party long ago.

"Xin Xin, don't be silly. It's not safe for you to go home alone. Society is so chaotic these days, and it's dark. If something happens to you, I'll blame myself for the rest of my life. Okay, let's go. I'll take you home."

As Gu Jian spoke, he reached out to pull Tian Xin again.

"Ancient building, get out of my way! Who are you? No man other than Qinzhou can touch me."

Gu Jian was immediately furious upon hearing this.

With gritted teeth, he grabbed Tian Xin's arm and dragged her away. "You're not allowed to let other men touch you? I did, so what? Tonight I'll show you how he dies. Get out of here!"

"What are you doing? Let go, let go of me."

Although Tian Xin had learned fighting skills, she was still a girl after all. Moreover, the Gu family was an important family in the military, and Gu Jian was the only son of the Gu family, so he was naturally given special attention and systematically taught many skills.

Therefore, Tian Xin's struggles were completely useless in the face of ancient architecture.

"Ancient building, what are you doing? Let me go!"

Tian Xin struggled and shouted.

"What for? You'll find out if you come with me."

The ancient building's face is extremely ferocious.

"Do you know what you're doing? You're breaking the law!"

"I know exactly what I'm doing. I want you. I've been chasing you for so many years, and in the end, I'm not as good as some kid I just met. I refuse to accept this. Tonight, no matter what, I'm going to have you!"
