Ye Xunhuan looked at the woman in front of him with some confusion.

"Where did it go wrong?"

"Marshal, since you’ve come, it means the head has succeeded.

There’s no harm in telling you now!" The woman stared at Ye Xunhuan and said, "We originally planned to team up with Antonio to kill you, then have the head replace you. But who knew that useless Antonio couldn’t defeat you, and the Blood Phoenix was actually with you! "

"But it’s alright; you killed Antonio, leaving a vacancy among the top ten overlords. Our head can rise to power."

"So, does that mean your head was in the shadows back then?"

"Exactly." The woman replied straightforwardly: "Back then, the head was hiding nearby, but you didn’t notice, and neither did the Blood Phoenix!"

"Was it also a ninja skill?" Ye Xunhuan asked with a frown.

"Do you think I would tell you?" The woman sneered, "Marshal, at this point, ask whatever you want to know. I will tell you everything I can."

"Why are you targeting me?"

"Do we need a reason to target you?" The woman said with some disdain, "The Taiji Seal is in your hands; does anyone not want to seize it?"

Even though it was unclear whether she was speaking truthfully or falsely, one had to admit, it was indeed a valid reason.

"So, you also want the Taiji Seal?"

"Correct!" The woman said with emphasis, "I fear no one doesn’t want it, right?"

"She doesn’t want it!"

Saying this, Ye Xunhuan pointed at Olivia.

The woman took a look at Olivia, without saying anything.

At that moment, Olivia suddenly spoke up, "With your head so capable, why not just become one independently, making eleven overlords instead of ten?"

"Blood Phoenix, do you think I know the reason behind it?" The woman retorted, "When you give orders, do you explain the whole cause and effect to your subordinates?"

Olivia was left speechless.

What the woman said wasn’t wrong; she was an overlord, and when ordering others, explanations were certainly not necessary.

"What is your position in the Night?" Ye Xunhuan intercepted the conversation and asked.

The woman glanced at Ye Xunhuan suddenly changing the topic and slowly opened her mouth to say, "Marshal, are you trying to infer our head’s power from me?"

"Has anyone ever told you that you’re very clever?" Ye Xunhuan said softly.

The woman ignored Ye Xunhuan’s words and answered his previous question, "Marshal, I can clearly tell you, I’m not a match for our head. But how strong the head truly is, I don’t know!"

"As for status, I can barely rank in the top ten in the Night."

Ye Xunhuan looked at the woman in front of him with slight surprise, having seen her ninja skills, which were not only excellent but also very advanced.

Yet, with her level of skill, she can only rank in the top ten in the Night.

It seems that this Night is far stronger than the power exhibited in the underground world, and not just by a small margin.

Ye Xunhuan then took out a cigarette and lit it for himself, speaking softly, "It seems you Night do have some foundation."

"Marshal, I mentioned earlier that the impending doom is yours unless you hand over the Taiji Seal. Otherwise, you won’t have any good days ahead."

"Aren’t you overestimating your head and underestimating me?" Ye Xunhuan exclaimed disdainfully, "Your head may be strong, but he’s merely a sneaky coward who doesn’t dare to face me."

The woman didn’t refute Ye Xunhuan’s words, instead her face showed thick disdain, which needed no explanation.

Ye Xunhuan observed the changes on the woman’s face and wasn’t concerned, then changed the topic, "What’s your relationship with Tian Sha?"

"Don’t know!" The woman lightly shook her head, "Never met!"

"Really?"

"Why would I need to lie about this?"

Upon hearing the woman’s words, Ye Xunhuan felt somewhat speechless; this woman’s tongue was incredibly sharp.

Ye Xunhuan was at a loss, but Olivia had words to say.

It’s worth noting that Olivia hadn’t spoken much since arriving here, mostly leaving the conversation to Ye Xunhuan.

"Do you think if your head becomes an overlord, he can truly be one?" Olivia sneered, "Do you think becoming an overlord means you can kill him and seize the Taiji Seal?"

"You don’t know until you try!"

"Should I call you naive or innocent?" Olivia said disdainfully, "There’s a difference among overlords, and not everyone can be one!"

"Moreover, so many people want to take the Taiji Seal, yet it remains in the Marshal’s hands. If your leader truly had strength, why did he hide in the shadows before..."

"Blood Phoenix, I understand what you’re trying to say, but you should know; if it weren’t for you, when we teamed up with Antonio, do you think the Marshal could have survived?"

"She underestimated you!" Olivia turned to look at Ye Xunhuan.

Ye Xunhuan chuckled softly, "Her tongue is sharp, and she’s been leading us in circles, seemingly about to reveal everything she knows!"

"But in fact, she’s said nothing substantial, quite dishonest."

"What do you plan to do?"

"Olivia, aren’t you missing a Progeny?" Ye Xunhuan said with a chuckle, "I think this woman is quite suitable. If you were to make her your Progeny, I imagine it would be easier for us to find out what we want to know!"

Progeny?

Upon hearing these two words, the woman’s face changed dramatically.

Understand that the term ’Progeny’ belongs to the vampire vocabulary, applicable only to vampires.

Furthermore, Progeny signifies the development of new members for the vampires, but it requires high qualifications.

Moreover, if someone is targeted by vampires for Progeny, on the positive side, they become a vampire; on the negative side, they are but a slave, completely controlled by the other party.

Olivia sneered, "She’s not qualified to be my Progeny. Marshal, it’s better you question her well; this woman definitely knows something!"

Ye Xunhuan shrugged his shoulders and then said to the woman, "You heard her; she’s not interested in you. Now, if you don’t get honest, I won’t be to blame!"

"Marshal, I’ve already told you everything..."

"You haven’t." Ye Xunhuan said casually, "The things I want to know, besides the dead, no one can remain silent, nor can anyone lie to me!"

"I hope you can break this rule for me!"

Ye Xunhuan’s eyes flashed with a sharp look, "I’m giving you one last chance; who are the people of the Night?"
