Capítulo 1556: Chapter 1554: Your Beauty Is Superfluous

Warm water sprayed down from the showerhead, hitting Wang Dadong’s well-defined and handsome muscles. After a tiring day, taking a hot bath was definitely a comfortable thing.

Wang Dadong’s phone continued to ring incessantly.

Because his hearing was excellent, Wang Dadong usually kept the ringtone very low. Now, being in the bathroom taking a shower, he naturally didn’t hear the phone ringing.

Meanwhile, in the darkness, shadows moved like ghosts, approaching the Eastern County Villa.

Lin Shiyan was in a daze, feeling as though someone had pushed the door open. Thinking it was Wang Dadong, she lazily turned over and continued to sleep.

Suddenly, Lin Shiyan noticed something was wrong; her entire body, along with the blanket, was being lifted by someone.

Opening her eyes, she found herself at the window.

“Ah!”

Lin Shiyan let out a scream, and immediately afterwards, she was tossed out of the window.

Although it wasn’t a high floor, falling like that would surely break her legs!

Luckily, just as she was about to hit the ground, someone caught her.

But it wasn’t Wang Dadong; it was the black-clad figure who had thrown her out of the window.

The black-clad figure was holding a large bag, and Lin Shiyan conveniently fell right into it as she descended.

After catching Lin Shiyan, the black-clad figure slung the bag over a shoulder and ran off, moving at an almost ghostly speed, disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye.

Wang Dadong was still in the shower when he suddenly heard Lin Shiyan’s voice. His expression changed slightly, and he quickly wrapped a towel around himself and rushed out of the bathroom, heading straight to Lin Shiyan’s room.

There, he found nothing but an empty bed and a blanket. Lin Shiyan, who had been on the bed, was gone.

Seeing that the window was open, he immediately jumped down through it and searched around the Eastern County Villa, but the intruder hadn’t left a single trace.

Wang Dadong squinted his eyes. Though worried, he wasn’t too anxious. Since the intruder had only abducted Lin Shiyan and not killed her, it indicated that their intention wasn’t to kill her. They were more likely targeting him.

Wang Dadong returned to his bedroom, picked up his phone from the bedside where it had been charging.

Sure enough, there were over a dozen messages on the phone.

Those messages came from the same number; they were from the alarm system he had set up around the Eastern County Villa. If any of the alarms were triggered, his phone would receive a message.

Unfortunately, because he was in the shower and the phone was charging on the bedside table, he hadn’t heard the message notifications.

Wang Dadong immediately called Jun Tianzui.

“Little Drunkard, can you check if there’s a satellite passing over Jiangdu City right now?”

About half a minute later, Jun Tianzui’s voice came through the phone, “There’s an American satellite just over Jiangdu City right now. Boss, what do you plan to do?”

“Your sister-in-law was abducted. Hack it for me and see if you can access the surveillance footage from the Eastern County Villa.” Wang Dadong said in a deep voice.

“What, sister-in-law was kidnapped?” Jun Tianzui was shocked, then immediately said, “Alright, I’ll get on it now.”

After hanging up, Wang Dadong sat on the bed, took out a cigarette, lit it, and started smoking.

Even if Jun Tianzui couldn’t retrieve the surveillance footage, the abductors would contact him sooner or later, and then he’d know who had taken Lin Shiyan. There’s no use panicking now.

However, he thought he might already know who it was.

Hacking a national satellite isn’t a simple task and takes quite some time.

In the presidential suite of the Imperial Grand Hotel, a handsome Western man was sitting on the sofa, sipping red wine.

“Your Highness Lawrence, we still can’t find Duke Pedora. Could she have…” a well-dressed young man frowned and said to the man on the sofa.

“Impossible, she’s an Ancestor Level vampire, she’s not killable. She’s probably just in a withered state.” the handsome man shook his head and said.

The withered state refers to vampires being in a dried corpse-like state after their blood has been drained.

Although vampires in this state can’t move, they’re still alive. Just giving them some blood can revive them.

And Pedora being an Ancestor Level vampire, stakes can’t kill her.

“But didn’t you say that Ancestor Level vampires can be killed?”

“They could in the past. But now, except for the Millennium Birch tree in the Holy See, there’s nothing in this world that can threaten Ancestor Level vampires,” Lawrence said with a sly smile.

Previously, although Millennium Grade birch trees were rare, there were still quite a few around the world, only to be secretly destroyed by the Vampire Clan one by one.

Now, except for the Millennium Birch in the Holy See, there are almost no Millennium Grade birch trees left worldwide.

And the Millennium Birch in the Holy See is regarded as a treasure by them. In the past, apart from the Dracula Family, several other major vampire clans joined forces to invade the Holy See to destroy it but failed.

For this, the Vampire Clan suffered a severely wounded vitality.

With the only threat to Ancestor Level vampires being the Millennium Birch in the Holy See, who else could threaten Ancestor Level vampires in Huaxia?

At most, draining an Ancestor Level vampire of their blood. Just a drop of blood, and they can reawaken.

Immortality is the greatest reliance of vampires.

But what Lawrence didn’t know was that the Millennium Birch from the Holy See was now in Huaxia, and it was in Jiangdu City.

Back then, Wang Dadong made quite a stir over at the Holy See, but since it concerned the Holy See’s reputation, revealing that their iconic artifact was stolen would surely cost them many followers. So, the Holy See sealed the news of the Millennium Birch being stolen and immediately created a fake one.

Since it’s considered a sacred relic, apart from the Twelve Cardinals, the Guardian Priest, and the Pope, no one was allowed near enough to notice it’s fake.

“Has the person been brought in?” Lawrence took a sip of red wine and asked.

“Yes, on their way, should be here shortly.”

“Useless, for such a small matter, His Highness has to intervene personally,” Lawrence muttered with some displeasure.

After about ten minutes, the door to the presidential suite was pushed open.

A woman wrapped in a blanket was placed before Lawrence.

Seeing that exquisitely beautiful face emerging from the blanket, Lawrence’s face showed a hint of amazement, “Didn’t expect there to be a woman as beautiful as Xiao Xue in this world.”

“But, since Xiao Xue already exists in this world, your beauty is redundant.” Lawrence said with a wicked smile.
