Why am I able to handle things so effortlessly?
The young count and Shi Shi stood outside the battle circle, staring in disbelief at the scene before them.
Their eyes were filled with disbelief, as if they had seen the god of war from mythology descend to earth.
Jiang Xiao stood at the center of the battlefield, like a dazzling sun, radiating light, and no one could get close to him.
Although the Count and Countess were greatly enhanced by the ancient battle tactics, their attacks seemed like child's play in front of Jiang Xiao.
Every time they launched a joint attack, Jiang Xiao was always able to deflect it with incredible speed and power, and then counterattack.
The Countess's eyes were filled with shock and fear. She couldn't understand why this human could so easily break the battle tactics that had been passed down for hundreds of years.
Whenever she tried to command the maids to reorganize the offensive, Jiang Xiao could always find a flaw and strike decisively, thwarting her plans.
The maids suffered heavy casualties under Jiang Xiao's powerful strength.
Every time he threw a punch or kick, a maid would fall into a pool of blood, her cries of agony echoing around her.
On the battlefield, the ground was a scene of devastation, and blood stained the ancient stone slabs.
The maids lay sprawled on the ground, curled up in pain, some so badly that even Jiang Xiao's own maid mother wouldn't recognize them.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye, leaving no time to react.
Shi Shi clutched the hem of her clothes tightly, feeling both shocked and delighted.
She never imagined that her father was so powerful and invincible.
Watching Jiang Xiao's heroic figure on the battlefield, she felt an unprecedented sense of pride.
The young count, however, was pale, his body trembling uncontrollably, and his eyes filled with fear.
He never imagined that the humans his family had always looked down upon possessed such terrifying power!
His lips trembled slightly, but he could no longer utter a sound.
A hint of madness flashed in the eyes of the Count and Countess; they knew that the human before them had far exceeded their expectations.
But as vampires, they cannot afford to be defeated here, upholding their pride and dignity.
As they roared, their bodies began to change.
Cracks appeared on their skin, and blood seeped out from them as if it were free, staining their bodies blood red.
"what!"
The Countess let out a piercing scream, her body seemed to swell up, and a powerful, bloody aura spread out, making the entire castle tremble at her roar.
The count was not to be outdone; his eyes were bloodshot, and his attack swept towards Jiang Xiao like a storm.
Jiang Xiao raised an eyebrow and rolled through the air to dodge their attacks.
The castle's top floor was already overwhelmed; as they fought, cracks began to appear in the walls, and stones fell from the ceiling.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
With a series of dull thuds, their battle raged from the top floor to the second floor, and then from the second floor back to the first floor.
The entire castle seemed to be teetering on the brink of collapse during the battle, with countless pebbles and dust flying out from all directions.
Jiang Xiao's figure moved swiftly through the castle, his speed dazzling to the eye.
Although the countess's attack was fierce, it was full of flaws in Jiang Xiao's eyes.
As the battle continued, the first floor of the castle was completely destroyed, and the magnificent hall was reduced to ruins.
The count and countess were covered in wounds, and their strength was gradually waning as they were being drained.
But they continued to attack desperately, as if they wanted to use their last bit of strength in this battle.
The castle walls began to crumble, and the entire structure seemed poised to collapse at any moment.
Throughout this fierce battle, Jiang Xiao remained calm and composed, and every move he made was like a work of art.
Finally, in a burst of power, Jiang Xiao's fist struck the Earl hard in the chest, sending him flying and crashing heavily into the castle wall.
Seeing this, the Countess was filled with grief and indignation, and her attacks became even more frantic, but in the face of the disparity in strength, her efforts seemed so powerless.
The interior of the castle had been completely reduced to ruins, but Jiang Xiao still stood there, like an unshakable mountain.

Finally, her body struggled in the air for a few moments, but then fell helplessly to the ground.
Jiang Xiao's attacks were too powerful; every punch and kick contained the force of an earthquake.
Despite their large numbers, the maids fell one after another under Jiang Xiao's relentless onslaught; none of them could withstand his onslaught.
As the battle drew to a close, Jiang Xiao stood amidst the devastation, his breathing steady, as if the fight had been nothing more than a gentle warm-up for him.
Really.
At this moment, Jiang Xiao himself felt that he was terrifyingly strong!
What's wrong with my body?
His gaze swept around, and he saw the Countess and her maids lying haphazardly on the ground, some groaning in pain, others unconscious, and none of them able to stand up.
The air inside the castle was thick with dust and the stench of blood; its former glory and majesty had vanished in an instant.
Jiang Xiao's hands hung slightly at his sides, his eyes showing no sympathy, only a faint indifference.
He knew that these vampires' desire and greed for humans would never cease.
Shi Shi and the young count remained standing at a distance, their expressions quite different.
Shi Shi's eyes were filled with admiration and awe, while the young count's were filled with fear and disappointment.
They all knew that from this day forward, the castle would no longer be the territory of vampires, but would become a historical witness to the conquest by humans.
As for myself and my parents, it's very likely...
"woooooo"
For some unknown reason, the young count, who had just stopped crying, began to sob softly again.
The ruins of the castle looked particularly desolate under the dim sky, as if telling a bloody story.
Jiang Xiao turned around, glanced at the still trembling Earl, and said calmly.
“Your parents and clansmen have been defeated by me. You now have two choices: either follow in their footsteps or let me cripple you, and then I will let you leave here and live an ordinary life.”
A resolute glint flashed in the young count's eyes. He wiped away his tears and stood up.
Although he was thin, he appeared exceptionally upright at this moment.
"I don't want your pity!" The young count's voice was weak, but it carried an unspoken determination: "I'd rather die than live like a stray dog! Father and Mother are right, humans are despicable and shameless!"
Jiang Xiao frowned slightly. He hadn't expected that this usually weak little count would choose to die at this moment.
The young count grew increasingly agitated, and as he looked at Shi Shi, his voice began to sharpen.
"It's all your fault! It's all because of you! I only brought Shi Shi back out of pity, seeing how pitiful you were in the forest!"
His finger trembled as he pointed at Shi Shi, and tears welled up in his eyes again.
"I gave her the best treatment in the castle, the best food, the best clothes. I treated her so well, and what did I get in return? She brought you, this murderous monster!"
Shi Shi's eyes were devoid of any emotion; her hands were clenched tightly together, and she regretted not tearing his mouth apart earlier.
"You little beast, didn't you have your two old beasts forcibly kidnap me back here?"
"You don't understand!" the young count practically roared!
"You don't understand the gentleness and kindness of my parents! They were vampires, but they never harmed the innocent! They just wanted to protect this family and this land!"
Hatred gleamed in his eyes.
"And you, you ruined everything! You destroyed my home, you hurt my people, you big bad guy!"
"I...I hate you!" The young count's voice trailed off, until it was almost a whisper: "I hate you."
His body began to sway, as if he might collapse at any moment, but his eyes remained unusually resolute, like those of a wounded wild beast.
Even on their deathbeds, they must fight the enemy with their last ounce of strength.
Jiang Xiao took a deep breath. He knew that the young count in front of him had made his choice.
He slowly walked towards the young count, his eyes no longer showing the coldness of before, but instead filled with respect.
"You have chosen death, and I will give you a dignified way."
Jiang Xiao's voice was deep and firm. He also felt that it was best to get rid of this kid as soon as possible.
The young count did not speak; he simply closed his eyes, as if he were prepared to face death.
Jiang Xiao gently placed his palm on the little count's forehead, his power beginning to gather, preparing to give the other party a quick death.
However, at that moment, the heavily injured count suddenly rushed up, and her tears rolled down like beads from a broken string.
"No! Don't do this!" His voice had lost its initial composure: "Little Giss is just a child. He did nothing wrong and shouldn't pay for it with his life!"
Jiang Xiao's hand froze in mid-air. He looked at the Earl with a complicated expression, then at the young Earl.
The atmosphere on the battlefield became unusually heavy, as if even the air itself had frozen.
