Zhou Jian originally planned to leave overnight after delivering a speech at the dinner, but in the afternoon, Zhou Jian did a small experiment. He found that if he entered a metal cocoon, he would not be able to absorb the blood power transmitted by the blood essence.
It is a matter of course, because the inside of the metal cocoon and the outside world are completely different dimensional spaces.
This forced Zhou Jian to choose to practice somewhere other than the cocoon. Zhou Jian's identity was currently a bit sensitive and could easily cause trouble if he showed off to others, so he decided to commandeer the Earl of Burnley's island.
This island is a hundred nautical miles away from the mainland, and no strangers usually set foot there. Zhou Jian stayed here as the ancestor of the blood clan, so of course no one would doubt it.
Naturally, Burnley would not and did not dare to object to this, but as soon as Zhou Jian mentioned it, he agreed and allowed Zhou Jian to use it indefinitely.
So after giving a speech at the dinner, Zhou Jian stayed.
The banquet venue was very luxuriously decorated, with gorgeous crystal chandeliers, soft red carpets, sterling silver tableware, and exquisite and delicious food.
In reality, most of the vampires present are millionaires, or they belong to ancient aristocratic families with titles. This is an extremely high-level upper-class banquet.
Because of Zhou Jian's presence, people seemed a little reserved. In the eyes of other vampires, Zhou Jian's identity was like a god. Even though he had deliberately restrained his aura, he could still feel a sense of depression coming from the depths of his bloodline, which made him feel depressed.
There is a feeling of willingness to surrender.
Until the banquet ended and the dance began, Annie walked up to Zhou Jian anxiously and invited Zhou Jian to dance the first dance.
Zhou Jian didn't know much about ballroom dancing. When he was in college, the college occasionally held social events, and Zhou Jian learned some basic steps of ballroom dancing and was a little more proficient. So he and Annie danced the relatively simple slow waltz in ballroom dancing.
.
In fact, the waltz Zhou Jian learned at that time should be called "Chinese Slow Three Steps." Although the two dance types are actually the same thing, the Chinese Slow Three Steps really looks more vulgar than the waltz. The crotches of men and women dancing the waltz
They are always close to each other, and their movements look elegant and rhythmic, while the men and women in Slow Three are farther apart and their movements are stiffer.
However, fortunately, Zhou Jian has a high level of intelligence and can learn quickly, and his super high agility will not cause him to step on his feet.
As soon as the song was over, although Zhou Jian was not very good at dancing, the famous ladies from the vampire clan didn't care at all, and they all came up to invite Zhou Jian for a second dance.
There is no doubt that in the eyes of the vampire girls, Zhou Jian is really a perfect husband.
Needless to say, status and status, especially the blood essence that can change the physique, make them extremely excited. You must know that a purer bloodline not only means a more noble status, but also means a longer youth, which is very important to them.
For most people, there is basically no hope of obtaining blood essence through strength.
What's more, if a child can be born with the ancestor, there is no doubt that this child will become the best descendant of the vampire clan, and will most likely be the next successor to the Speaker.
Therefore, if they can marry the ancestor, they will naturally reach the sky in one step. If not, then even if they are lucky enough to become the lover of the ancestor, their status in the clan can be greatly improved.
That's why they put aside their reserve and took the initiative to invite Zhou Jian to dance. According to the etiquette of ballroom dancing, men usually invite women to dance. Occasionally, women will invite men, but at this time, men cannot refuse.
Zhou Jian didn't want to embarrass the girl who invited him to dance, so he had to dance a few more songs. After that, seeing that there was an endless stream of girls asking to dance, he left on the pretext of taking a rest.
This disappoints many girls.
The dance continued, and Zhou Jian came to a room on the second floor of the castle. He used the spiritual crystal to connect to the virtual network and opened the Sky News. There is no wireless phone signal transmission tower on this island, so he can only
Connect using a virtual network with global coverage.
Zhou Jian wanted to assure his parents that he was safe. Although he had already greeted his parents before entering the metal cocoon, there was no news after such a long time, and his mother was inevitably worried.
As soon as I opened the Tianxun, many messages popped up. The first one was from Mu Qinglan. She asked about Zhou Jian and Li's current situation, and her words were full of concern, which made Zhou Jian feel warm in his heart.
of.
After making a simple reply, Zhou Jian began to read the messages one by one.
After Mu Qinglan, three consecutive messages were sent by Tianji Zilin. The first two were greetings, and the last one asked Zhou Jian if he had time to visit the family.
Zhou Jian has already told his father about returning to the Tianji family. Tianji Sword has no special objection to this and just lets Zhou Jian make his own decision.
So Zhou Jian planned to go to the Tianji family if he had the chance, and at least get the follow-up mental method of "Tianji Dao". For Zhou Jian, this mental method is still very important.
After replying to Tianji Zilin, Zhou Jian turned to the next one. After seeing this message, Zhou Jian was slightly stunned. It was actually sent by Jiang Xinyi. The content was very simple and said: "My sister and I got home safely.
Yes, I called your mobile phone and it said that the number has expired, so I left a message for you, thank you."
Thinking of Jiang Xinyi's appearance when she left, Zhou Jian sighed softly. He thought for a while, replied "I got it" and then made a smiley sign.
Shaking his head, he turned to the next message. This was the last message, but after seeing this message, Zhou Jian was stunned.
This message came from Tianjijian and said: "Your mother and I will be away for a while. When you grow up, you can decide your own path."
This simple sentence gave Zhou Jian an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
Since his strength and identity were exposed, it was no longer possible for his father to live a quiet life, so he chose to leave again.
In fact, for Tianji Sword, he had lost the reason to fight. When the catastrophe broke out, he fought for the people and for his and Ling Xintong's happy and peaceful life.
After Ling Xintong died, he fought for revenge.
But when the great revenge was avenged and he left Kyoto and broke away from the circle of the seven major families, he had no reason to fight anymore.
For the Tianji family, Tianji Sword does not have much sense of belonging.
As for the so-called fighting for China, it is actually equivalent to fighting for the interests of the seven major families. Tianji Sword will naturally not do this. The only one who can barely be regarded as a reason is Zhou Jian, and Tianji Sword believes that Zhou Jian's path should be
Let Zhou Jian go on his own.
So just like that, he took his ordinary wife and left again. Even Zhou Jian didn't know where his father had gone.
