Lucian's face darkened upon hearing that; his body was enveloped in a blood-red aura, and his blood-red eyes also shone brightly. "I will kill all three of you!"

*clang*

In a flash, Lucian's blood sword clashed with Mariel's black-and-gold sword, and the attack power of the two seemed to be evenly matched.

Even though Mariel's rank was the same as Sophie and Arael's, her strength was actually higher than theirs, and that was because she was indeed a battle angel.

Mariel smiled faintly and stretched her hand to Lucian's face, and a fireball shot towards his face.

"Guah!" Lucian immediately flew away and held his face, which was burned by Mariel's fire. 'What the hell is up with her fire? How can her ordinary fire hurt me?'

"Are you curious about my fire?" Mariel asked with a faint smile, and five fireballs appeared around her. "Unfortunately, you have been wrong if you think that my fire is just an ordinary fire."

*Swoosh*

After Mariel waved her hand, the five fireballs rushed towards Lucian, and he immediately flew to avoid them, but they continued to chase him.

'What really happened? Why are the abilities of these angels different from before?' While Lucian was thinking that, Mariel had already flown towards him and intercepted him, and she immediately swung her fiery sword at him. "Shit!"

*clang*

Luckily, Lucian was able to parry Mariel's attack in time, or else the attack would have injured him, but the five fireballs directly hit him in the back. "Guah!"

Seeing Lucian in pain, Mariel then raised her sword and swung at him again, and this time her strike hit him in the shoulder.

"Guah!" Lucian groaned in pain, and his body slid to the ground in a hurry, but he immediately stabilized himself and landed on a stagger.

However, Sophie was already standing behind him, and she thrust her sword into his chest.

Without thinking twice, Lucian transformed himself into a bat, and Sophie's attack only grazed his back. "Tch!"

*Swoosh... Swoosh...*

As Lucian flew away from Sophie in his bat form, two white arrows suddenly pierced his wings, and he fell to the ground as he returned to his human form. 'Damn it! Three against one really overwhelmed me.'

Fortunately, Lucian is a vampire, and his healing speed is very fast. He then stood up and glared sharply at the three angels surrounding him, but he suddenly smiled as he watched the moon disappear. "Hey, I'm really lucky."

The three angels raised their eyebrows, and they cursed in their hearts, realizing that the moon was gone. "Damn!"

However, Lucian had already switched to his night mode, and he immediately disappeared from their sight.

"Damn it!" Sophie cursed seeing Lucian disappear.

Arael then warned them. "Be careful, he's using his stealth."

On the other hand, Mariel had covered her entire body in fire to protect herself from Lucian's surprise attack, and she was looking around warily.

Meanwhile, Feng Ruxue, who was watching their battle from afar, shook her head. Unlike the three angels, she could see Lucian's movements easily with her crimson eyes. 'Many of those demons do have interesting abilities; even this vampire can use stealth, and they can't detect him at all.'

"Argh!" Sophie suddenly groaned in pain, startling the other two angels.

Even though Sophie couldn't see Lucian, she could feel his embrace and his bite on her neck, and he was also sucking her blood. "Shoot him; he's behind me, Arael!"

Hearing that, Arael unhesitatingly pointed his bow at Sophie, and two white arrows darted swiftly towards her. However, before the two arrows hit her body, their trajectories changed toward her back.

Lucian, who was still in stealth mode, immediately released Sophie and flew away. However, the two arrows continued to chase after him, and that was because Arael's arrows were not ordinary arrows. Once the arrow detects demons, it will continue to hunt them.

*Slash... Slash...*

The two arrows were directly slashed by Lucian, and he quickly flew towards Arael; then he slashed his sword against his wings and cut them off.

Lucian purposely didn't kill him outright because he knew that wings were the pride of angels, and it would be the greatest humiliation for them if they lost their wings.

"Guah!" Arael spouted blood from his mouth because his wings were part of his body, and he plunged to the ground swiftly.

"Arael!" Sophie and Mariel shouted at the same time.

Since she was closer to him, Mariel immediately flew towards him and pulled back the fire that covered her body, so her fire didn't hurt Arael.

Seeing that, Lucian seized the opportunity to attack Mariel, and he thrust his sword into her back.

When his sword almost pierced Mariel's back, Lucian's body suddenly froze and he couldn't fly forward, and he was shocked when he saw Feng Ruxue appear in front of him. 'What? Why was this strong cultivator protecting these angels? Usually they don't meddle in each other's business.'

Feng Ruxue then turned to Mariel, who had caught Arael, and she threw a pill at her, which she swiftly caught. "Give it to him, although it can't recover his wings instantly, it can heal his wounds quickly."

"Thank you." Mariel then put the pill in Arael's mouth, and he swallowed it without hesitation.

Sophie then landed beside them and asked. "Are you all right, Arael?"

"I'm fine." Arael answered as he endured the pain in his back. "Fortunately, his attack didn't hit my wings vital parts, so I can still regrow them, but it will take a very long time."

"That's good." The two female angels sighed in relief after hearing that, if Arael really lost his wings, he would be expelled from the angel realm.

Sophie then looked up at Feng Ruxue. "Who is she? Do you know that woman, Mariel?"

"She is one of Ling Yun's women." Mariel answered her as she also turned to Feng Ruxue, but she was also wondering in her heart. 'Hmm? Did he purposely send her to protect me? She didn't move when Lucian attacked Sophie and Arael, but she immediately moved when he was about to attack me.'

Feng Ruxue then said. "Don't you want to cancel your stealth? No matter what you do, you can never escape me--not even that Vampire Lord can escape me."

Hearing that, Lucian immediately canceled his stealth and spoke to her. "Why are you meddling in our affairs? This is a matter between us demons and humans, and you as a human shouldn't meddle in our matters."

"Really?" Feng Xian'er smiled at him. "First, your daughter and her bodyguard wanted to kill my husband's aunt, and she is now in his hands. Second-"

"What!?" Lucian exclaimed in shock after he heard Feng Ruxue mention his daughter. "Please tell me where my daughter is now; I want to meet her."

Feng Ruxue then continued. "Second, my husband is attracted to that red-haired angel, and he wants to take her as his wife, but you tried to kill her just now."

Sophie and Arael were momentarily stunned upon hearing that, and they then turned to Mariel with questioning looks, but she quickly turned her head to the side, not wanting to give them an answer.

'Sigh! She seems to have become entangled in worldly feelings.' Sophie and Arael said it with a sigh in their hearts.

Even Lucian stared at Mariel in disbelief, this was the first time he had heard of a human being attracted to an angel, let alone that he wanted to take her as his wife.

"As for your daughter, I can take you to see her." Lucian looked at her expectantly; he really wanted to see his daughter, but Feng Ruxue said again. "However, if I take you to go see her, then your daughter might witness your death with her own eyes."

"Why?" Lucian didn't understand that.

Feng Ruxue sighed and shook her head. "Because your underlings killed someone close to my husband, and he was forced to turn her into a demon so she could live again."

Sophie wanted to say something to her, but Mariel hastily stopped her by shaking her head.

Although Mariel also wanted to capture Lucian, she didn't want to have any conflict with Ling Yun. Because she knew for a fact that the people beside him weren't ordinary people, and it would be to their own detriment.

Lucian felt desperate after hearing that, and he couldn't even move under Feng Ruxue's restraint. After thinking about it for some time, he said to her. "Even if I have to die later, I still want to see my daughter first, so please take me to meet her."

"All right, if you insist, then I will take you to meet your daughter." Feng Ruxue then enveloped them with her qi, including the three angels, and she brought them all to the house.
