The Reversal of Heaven Begins with The Smiling, Proud Wanderer

The eerie blue light flashed and disappeared once more!

The vampire's head instantly separated from its body, shooting into the sky, its face filled with extreme terror and disbelief.

Blood gushed out like a fountain from the headless neck; the corpse swayed and then collapsed heavily.

The remaining vampires trembled violently, and finally, as if all their strength had been drained, they slowly lowered the muzzles of their guns and the blades of their swords, no longer daring to meet the gaze of the demon-like figure in the air.

Selena witnessed all of this, and her shock was beyond measure.

She recognized the two dead vampires; they were quite skilled among the Death Walkers, yet they were instantly killed without even a chance to react.

That mysterious blue flying blade was so fast it was despair-inducing, its attack trajectory was unpredictable, and its power was terrifying!

Selena knew that even if she was on high alert, she probably wouldn't be able to dodge that lightning-fast attack.

This mysterious Eastern man was so powerful that he completely exceeded her understanding of "power," making her, as a vampire, feel as if she had seen a ghost.

Is he telling the truth? Elder Victor... he really is...?

Despite her continued emotional resistance, rational judgment and the absolute strength displayed by the Easterner in front of her began to make her subconsciously waver.

Such a powerful person seems to have no need to fabricate such a clumsy lie to deceive her.

Lin Mu noticed the wavering in Selena's eyes and continued calmly, "I know it's hard for you to accept right now. But this is the cold, hard truth."

“Your father was a craftsman. Back then, he was in charge of building the prison for Victor to imprison William, the progenitor of the werewolves, as well as the secret passage leading to it.”

"After the project was completed, in order to ensure that the secret of the passage was not revealed, Victor ordered the killing of all the craftsmen who participated in the construction, including your parents and family."

"He spared you the only one, Selena."

“Not out of pity, but because you look almost exactly like his long-deceased daughter, Sonia.”

"You are nothing more than a substitute for his longing for his daughter, a tool to express his guilt and remembrance, and also a knife in his hand to deal with werewolves."

"This matter is not unknown to the higher-ups in the vampire community."

“For example, Craven and Tyrese, they know the inside story. If you don’t believe it, as long as you can get their blood, the truth will be revealed to you.”

Lin Mu remembered that vampires in Underworld had a special ability called "Blood Memories," which allowed them to obtain the memories of their blood's owner by drinking blood.

Although it's not as useful as Golden Eyes, it's still a pretty good skill.

Lin Mu's words struck Selena like a thunderbolt.

Those blurry and fragmented memories from more than three hundred years ago are emerging uncontrollably and wildly!

She remembered her father's hands, rough yet warm from years of hard work; the various tools and blueprints piled up in their workshop; and how, for a time, her father seemed to have indeed undertaken a secret project from a "big shot," keeping him busy day and night, and then...

What followed was a scene of bloodshed and fire, and Victor's dignified yet "merciful" face amidst despair and fear...

For three hundred years, Victor has trained her to be the most ruthless deathwalker. All her battles and all her reasons for living are built on the foundation of "avenging the werewolves"!

If this foundation was false from the beginning, if the object of her devout faith and for which she would give everything is her true, irreconcilable enemy...

“Victor…Father…No…Why…How could this be…No—!”

Selena's body swayed violently, and she staggered back a step, barely able to stand.

Her world seemed to be completely turned upside down in an instant.

In his azure eyes, immense shock, bewilderment, deep-seated pain, and an overwhelming rage of being utterly betrayed and manipulated by the person he trusted most for three hundred years surged forth like a tsunami!

She murmured to herself, her voice broken and choked with sobs and unbearable despair. 867

The younger, surviving vampires, though unaware of this ancient secret, were already quite convinced after hearing Lin Mu's detailed explanation, including the verification method, and considering Elder Victor's ruthless and cold-blooded style. Their gazes towards Selena were now tinged with sympathy and complex emotions.

Selena gasped for breath, struggling to calm the intense emotions surging through her chest.

She raised her head and looked at Lin Mu again, her eyes bloodshot, her voice trembling but with a hint of stubbornness as she asked, "Where did you learn all this? And why... did you tell me this?"

Lin Mu said calmly, "I know far more than you can imagine."

“Victor’s feud with you is just a small footnote in this long history.”

"Today, by chance, I met you and felt sorry for you, having been deceived for a hundred years, so I told you the truth."

He paused, his gaze lingering for a moment on Selena's pale yet still exquisitely beautiful face, his tone carrying a rare hint of appreciation: "Of course, I must admit, your beauty, your strength, and the unique nobility you maintain even in the darkness... all of these I greatly admire."

"I like you quite a bit, and I don't want to see you continue to be used by your enemies without realizing it."

Selena was completely unprepared for such an answer, especially the undisguised "I like you" at the end, which caused her, who had weathered a century of storms and whose heart was as hard as ice, to feel a rare sense of panic and unease.

She subconsciously avoided Lin Mu's direct gaze.

The Asian man in front of her was handsome, matching her aesthetic standards. Coupled with his mysterious and powerful nature, Selena was indeed somewhat attracted.

However, what she wanted to find out most right now was the truthfulness of Lin Mu's words.

“Crawl… Tyrese…”

She murmured the two names, a cold, resolute glint in her eyes: "I will find them... I will know the truth!"

No matter how cruel the truth may be, she must know.

Lin Mu raised his hand: "If you don't mind, I can give you a ride, but you have to promise not to bite me."

Chapter 119: The Blood of the Immortals

Selena stared at the streamlined, futuristic Sky Shuttle before her. Its cold metal surface gleamed with a faint blue light under the moonlight, like a lurking mechanical behemoth.

She then looked at Lin Mu, who stood calmly beside her. The eyes of this mysterious Eastern man seemed to hold the stars and the sea, making him impossible to fathom.

The flames of revenge burned fiercely in her azure eyes, overpowering her instinctive wariness of the unknown creation.

Without hesitation, she nodded slightly and stepped onto the suspended platform.

With a slight thought, Lin Mu conjured a gentle energy barrier from the edge of the platform, enveloping the two of them and isolating them from all external sounds.

"Stand still."

Lin Mu's voice was calm as water, yet it carried an undeniable power.

The next moment, the Sky Shuttle rose silently and vertically, accelerating instantly and transforming into a silver streak, appearing in the sky above the outskirts of London.

Selena had never experienced such terrifying speed before. The intense push pressed her firmly against the seat, and she couldn't help but gasp softly as her body swayed slightly.

The city beneath my feet looked like a miniature model being rapidly pulled away, and the Thames River became a shimmering silver ribbon.

Although the cold, high-altitude airflow was blocked by the barrier, the altitude of a thousand meters still made her heart race.

She instinctively gripped Lin Mu's arm, her fingertips touching the firm muscles beneath his clothes. A warmth emanated from the fabric, a stark contrast to her icy fingertips.

This warmth is unlike the body temperature of ordinary humans; rather, it is like underground molten lava containing immense power.

"Feel sorry."

Selena quickly withdrew her hand, but Lin Mu simply smiled faintly.

"Everyone feels a little uncomfortable the first time they ride the Sky Shuttle."

His golden eyes gleamed faintly in the night: "Where do you want to go?"

Selena forced herself to calm down and gave a coordinate deep in the Alps: "The place of Andres Thales' imprisonment, the oldest historian of my people, who knows all the secrets."

"Guide the way."

Lin Mu responded succinctly.

The Sky Shuttle swept across the European continent with astonishing efficiency, the mountains and rivers under the night sky rushing past beneath its feet.

In a short time, the Sky Shuttle had already arrived deep in the Ben Nevis Mountains.

On a precipitous cliff, an ancient castle is cleverly embedded in the mountain, as if it has become one with the rock.

The tower's spire points straight to the sky, casting long shadows in the moonlight.

The two landed silently on the terrace of the castle's highest tower.

Lin Mu transformed the Sky Shuttle into a shield to protect his side, and his golden eyes flashed with light, instantly taking in the entire structure of the castle.

The two stepped onto the spiral staircase leading into the castle.

The two vampire guards who came to investigate after hearing the commotion had just peeked out when a flash of eerie blue light appeared, and their heads flew off, their bodies falling silently to the ground.

It was impossible to see how Lin Mu made his move; only the residual energy fluctuations in the air proved what had just happened.

Selena followed closely behind, her silver sword tracing a deadly arc in the dimly lit corridor, precisely slicing open the throat of a werewolf that pounced from the shadows.

The werewolf whimpered and fell to the ground, transforming into human form.

Lin Mu gave her an approving look: "Beautiful swordsmanship."

"Three hundred years of practice have not been in vain."

Selena responded calmly, but was inwardly shocked by Lin Mu's fighting style.

He barely needed to move; the blue-glowing blades moved through the corridor as if they were alive, each flash taking a life.

The castle was filled with an atmosphere of decadent debauchery mixed with the stench of blood, making it nauseating.

They moved swiftly along the ornate carpet, leaving behind a dozen or so corpses in their wake.

Any creature that appeared before them, whether it was a vampire guard trying to stop them or a werewolf rushing out, was instantly killed by those elusive flying blades!

Finally, they arrived at the door of the master bedroom.

The heavy oak door was carved with lewd patterns, and warm light and faint moaning sounds emanated from the cracks in the door.

Without any hesitation, Lin Mu kicked out.

The gate instantly shattered into countless fragments, with wood chips flying everywhere.

Inside the room, a well-proportioned, richly dressed, but shirtless middle-aged vampire man rolled off the large bed in terror.

Andres Thales' face was still flushed with desire, but it quickly turned pale the moment he saw the person who had arrived.

On the bed were several disheveled vampire beauties and human women, who were screaming in terror.

Tyris roared in shock and rage, but relaxed slightly upon seeing Selena. "Selena? What do you want to do? Don't you know that killing one's own kind is a serious crime?"

“I have come to seek the truth, Tyrese.”

Selena's voice was icy cold as she approached step by step, the silver sword in her hand gleaming with a chilling light.

"What truth? I don't know what you're talking about!"

Tyrese's eyes flickered as he tried to back away, only to find himself unable to move.

Lin Mu used his telekinesis to firmly hold him in place.

"About my family! About Victor!"

Selena growled as she pressed the tip of her sword against Tyrese's throat.

Tyrese's expression became complicated. He glanced at Lin Mu, who was calm and composed beside him, and seemed to understand something: "It seems you already know some things. Well then, let me tell you. Victor is indeed the one who killed your family. He has been using you all along."

Selena remained skeptical of Tyrese's words. She took out a dagger and a wine glass that she had prepared beforehand and threw them in front of him: "Do it yourself."

"I'm telling the truth... Do as you please."

Under Lin Mu's icy gaze, Tyrese felt his body tremble as he took the dagger, cut his wrist, poured the blood into a cup, and then handed it to Selena.

Without any hesitation, Selena drank Tyrese's blood in one gulp.

Seek the truth through the memories of blood.

As the blood entered her stomach, countless chaotic and fragmented images flashed through Selena's mind—

She saw Tyrese and Craven's secret conversation; she saw Lucien, the Wolf King, shake hands with Tyrese under the moonlight and reach an agreement; she saw Victor order the capture of William, the progenitor of the werewolves, and secretly imprison him; she saw Victor cruelly kill all the craftsmen involved in the project afterward, including Selena's family; finally, she saw Tyrese banished to this place by Victor for knowing too many secrets...

"Uhhhhhh-!!!"

Selena slammed down her glass and let out a heart-wrenching scream of pain.

She staggered backward, her body trembling violently.

The truth obtained through blood is more convincing than any rhetoric.

Three hundred years of faith, loyalty, and the drive for revenge... all collapsed, turning into the deepest hatred!

"Victor!"

Selena roared to the sky, her voice filled with endless pain and rage, her shrill screams shattering the glass objects in the room.

Lin Mu watched her quietly, without disturbing her.
