Chapter 435 Clarification

"Strength, speed, self-healing abilities, precognition, mind reading, and emotional control—these are your strengths!"

"..."

Alice clenched her fists, trying to remain calm. Lin Jue had revealed all the abilities of the Karen family members, and this incredible thing no longer seemed to surprise her.

"What exactly is your purpose? You want us to work for you...?"

Alice asked in confusion.

"You? Serve me? Hahaha! If you still think that way after you know who my enemies are, then I have to admire your courage!"

"Then what is it for?"

"Wouldn't it be better to just strip you of your abilities?"

A strange smile appeared on Lin Jue's face. He was completely unaware of the profound shock this unprecedented event was causing in Alice's heart.

"..."

Seeing Alice suddenly stunned, Lin Jue gently patted her shoulder, chatted briefly with Bella, and then left.

There was no other way. Lin Jue knew that if Alice and the other members of the Karen family were there, they wouldn't be able to enjoy their trip in peace. It just so happened that he himself wanted to go out for a walk as well.

……

Alice was not awakened by Bella until Lin Jue's figure completely disappeared from their sight.

Looking at Bella beside her, who seemed completely bewildered and had no idea what the words just said meant, Alice's expression was extremely complicated. After thinking it over and over again, she couldn't help but ask, "Bella, I know that your relationship with Lin is extraordinary. Do you know what he meant by what he just said? I hope you can understand one thing: our Cullen family has never wanted to be his enemy."

"Yes, I know. Lin isn't an evil person, please don't worry!"

Bella spoke earnestly, her delicate eyes gazing at the surrounding jungle with a hint of longing in them. Unlike Alice, whose feelings were complicated, she had been looking forward to this picnic for a long time.

……

When Bella and Alice returned to the camp, dusk had fallen. Small groups of people were gathered together, some having barbecues, others carrying dry rations, all laughing and chatting happily.

Bella glanced around but didn't see Lin Jue, which made her a little disappointed. Soon, Alice pulled her to the Karen family's camp.

Similar to other camps, the Karen family was also preparing food.

"You vampires can eat human food?"

Bella was a little curious.

"Yes, of course we can eat, but we can't get energy from human food. Doing so only makes it easier for us to integrate into human society!"

As Alice explained, she grabbed a loaf of bread and took a bite as if nothing was wrong.

Bella took one from Edward's hand, and with one bite, she found it soft and fluffy. After a busy day, the feeling of enjoying a delicious meal made Bella's eyes squint slightly.

Soon, after a satisfying meal, Bella, Alice, and the others lay on the grass, gazing at the star-studded night sky, each experiencing a complex mix of emotions.

"Bella, when did you and Lin become so close?"

Edward, who had been silent the whole way, finally couldn't help but ask. Lying on the grass, he turned his head slightly and could clearly see Bella not far away beside him.

"Yes, once all the misunderstandings were cleared up, we naturally came together!"

Are you two boyfriend and girlfriend?

Emmett, lying on the other side, was somewhat surprised.

"Um!"

Bella thought for a moment, then quickly replied.

"...Do you know who he is? Do you think you two are a good match?"

Emmett quickly pressed for details. Although he didn't know exactly what Lin Jue was, based on his current worldview, Lin Jue was a supernatural being similar to a vampire, and such beings often did not easily coexist with humans.

"I know! But I don't care!"

Bella Menu said firmly.

"What is he?"

Alice, who was standing nearby, seized the opportunity and quickly asked a question. She felt that the atmosphere was just right and it was the perfect time to ask questions. Bella also naturally gave the answer she knew in her heart.

"god!"

"god?"

"WHAT?"

"How is this possible?"

Alice and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. Some questioned, some mocked, and some were shocked.

"In a sense, he's a vampire too..."

Seeing everyone's reaction, Bella hesitated for a moment and added, "I think that if he had this kind of identity, the Karen family might have a slightly better impression of Lin Jue."

"A vampire? Impossible, his body is warm!"

Alice then questioned Bella's explanation, and her words made the Cullen family members prick up their ears, wanting to know how Bella would explain this phenomenon.

"Because he is different from you. As I said before, he is a god, the god of vampires, the source of all vampires. Do you think that as such a great being, his nature must be the same as yours?"

"...The god of vampires?"

Alice muttered to herself, while Emmett and the others beside her remained silent.

"What Vampire God... Why have I never heard of him? I've only heard of the Judgement Family; they're considered one of the older vampire families. Apart from them, I haven't heard any legends about a Vampire God, not even the legend of the progenitor!"

Rosalie frowned and retorted. She had been observing Edward's reaction and noticed that his gaze kept lingering on Bella, which made her increasingly jealous and dislike Bella.

"Since you don't believe me, you can ask him directly."

Bella turned her head away, looking at the beautiful night sky, not caring about Rosalie's opinion.

"..."

Rosalie was about to say something more when Jasper, who was standing next to her, stopped her in time.

"Bella, since you say he's the origin of vampires, does that mean we're all his descendants?"

Jasper's words caused Rosalie and the others to pause in surprise.

This is a topic that's hard to ignore for vampires.

"Well... I'm not entirely sure either, but Lin told me that all vampires in all worlds should call him God or the progenitor. I don't know if that fits your question."

"Ancestor...god..."

Edward kept replaying the scene of his fight with Lin Jue in his mind. In front of the other party, he was like a baby, powerless to fight back.

Alice took in everyone's reactions, and after a moment's thought, she asked again, "Did he tell you which world he came from?"

"I've heard it's a world countless times larger and countless times more wonderful than this one!"

A longing flashed in Bella's eyes; she was at an age where everything was new and exciting.
