"So, no one knows who my biological parents are?" Ghost asked with a frown.

Old Man Ba said with certainty, "Yes, even your adoptive parents don't know. They only know you are from Huaxia."

Lin Tian and the Miss exchanged a glance, both thinking that the world now had one more orphan without knowledge of their real parents.

Just as the atmosphere grew silent, an explosion suddenly came from the back of the factory. Even at night, Lin Tian and the others could see a small mushroom cloud rising.

The strong shockwave swept through the abandoned factory area, toppling several dilapidated buildings like they were made of paper; it was utterly devastating. Fortunately, by the time the shockwave reached Lin Tian and his group, it was weakened and did not harm anyone.

"Miss, Second Miss, take Mrs. Xiao and leave. Ghost, have your team take your master and leave immediately. This place is unsafe; otherwise, none of us might get out," Lin Tian said with a frown after assessing the situation in the distance.

"What about you?" Xiao Manxuan asked anxiously.

"Don't worry about me, just go..." Before Lin Tian could finish his words, there was another loud explosion.

The Miss frowned, had no choice but to leave with Mrs. Xiao, who gave Lin Tian a deep look before turning to leave. The Ghost Team lifted Old Man Ba and left as well, while Lin Tian couldn't be bothered with the Bai Family's decision.

It was ten minutes after they left when two figures appeared in the distance. Upon closer inspection, Lin Tian found that it was the returning Xiao sisters.

As they approached, Lin Tian feigned anger and said, "What are you doing? Why didn't you leave?"

Xiao Manxuan playfully stuck out her tongue and said, "My sister and I decided to have Ghost take mom away while we stay with you. If you don't leave, we won't either!"

The Miss remained silent, which implicitly confirmed her sister's words. Lin Tian frowned and said, "Miss, Second Miss is being unreasonable; why are you following along? Why didn't you take her and leave?"

"Lin Tian, you are as important as mom now. How could we leave you behind?" the Miss said firmly, and the Second Miss nodded along.

Are they equally important? Lin Tian felt a bit startled. When did he become so important to them?

As he was pondering, a shout came from afar. It was Charlotte's voice, but now filled with murderous intent rather than ethereality.

"Anyone trying to snatch the U-disk from me will die!"

As Charlotte's voice dropped, a red light flashed above the abandoned factory, and the ground responded with strange blood-red patterns, as if echoing the red light from the sky.

"What is this?" Xiao Manxuan asked curiously, looking at the blood-red patterns on the ground, not a trace of fear in her voice.

This scene, it seems like... Lin Tian had a flash of insight and suddenly said, "It looks like a barrier; hurry and leave."

Lin Tian only had time to shout once before grabbing the Xiao sisters and sending out a soft force. The sisters flew backward, bewildered, landing a distance away, outside the range of the abandoned factory.

When they regained their senses and tried to return, the edge of the abandoned factory suddenly flashed, revealing a blood-red semi-transparent light shield that blocked their entry.

The Miss's expression changed as she pulled out a thin sword from somewhere, slashing at the barrier. Blue sword light burst forth and sliced toward the barrier.

The Miss's sword light was usually invincible, capable of injuring even Lin Tian's zombie physique. However, when the blue sword light collided with the blood-red barrier, only a dazzling flash of electricity resulted, leaving the barrier unscathed.

This outcome surprised both the Miss and Lin Tian, who had a feeling that this barrier was stronger than Guizhong Yilang's prison barrier.

The Miss was relentless, striking several more times with conspicuous sword light, but the barrier remained as steady as Taishan, showing no signs of damage, not even a ripple.

"Miss, stop wasting True Qi. At your current level, you can't shake this blood-colored barrier," Lin Tian shouted to them.

"Then hurry and come out; you can definitely break it," the Miss said anxiously.

Seeing the usually cool and domineering Miss get anxious filled Lin Tian's heart with satisfaction. This Miss, pretending not to care, still holds me dear in her heart.

However, Lin Tian had no intention of leaving. From the moment Charlotte intercepted Mrs. Xiao, Lin Tian never intended to retreat—that wasn't his style. Moreover, this was Huaxia; if he were to slink away at this moment, he'd lose all respect for himself.

Charlotte is a vampire, whereas I'm a zombie. Who's afraid of whom? Lin Tian thought fearlessly.

He decisively turned around and rushed towards the direction of the fight, while the Xiao sisters circled around the barrier to reach the opposite side.

Before Lin Tian could reach the combat zone, a corpse suddenly flew toward him. He quickly caught it and, upon closer examination, found it was a ninja's corpse.

There were two deep blood holes on the ninja's neck. A quick inspection revealed all the blood had been drained. It seems Charlotte truly lost control, leaving no mercy for anyone trying to take from her, killing them directly.

"Charlotte, I'll deal with these ninjas first, then settle our score!" Lin Tian shouted at the large bat in the sky.

But it seemed Charlotte wasn't appreciative. The large bat let out a strange cry, and her two female subordinates rushed at Lin Tian, transforming into bat forms as well.

Damn, trying to kill even me? Let's see if you have the teeth for it! Lin Tian's face turned cold as he launched his fists at the two bats.

The two female subordinates, unaware of Lin Tian's toughness, attempted to strike directly, aiming to bite Lin Tian's wrist and drain his blood. Sucking blood was a vampire's forte.

However, it was also a zombie's specialty. As the bats' sharp teeth bit down, they found they couldn't break Lin Tian's skin. The failure resulted in Lin Tian punching them away, causing the two bats to fall to the ground with a puff, turning back to human form amidst a swirl of black mist.

Knocked back to their original form with one punch, the two female subordinates, although demonically beautiful—almost glowing—did not stir Lin Tian's compassion, and he continued to hit them as needed.

"You think you're worthy of drinking my blood?" Lin Tian said coldly.

The two female vampires, seemingly unaware of fear, reverted to human form and attacked Lin Tian again.

But suddenly, a black shadow rushed out of the ruined building. In a flicker, one of the two female vampires disappeared, leaving the other stunned, because she could see that the attacker was actually a large bat!

In the sky, the giant bat was holding one of the female vampires, her body limp, clearly already killed by the large bat. This bat was naturally the lurking Rossi, who appeared suddenly and took out a female vampire.

This sudden change alarmed Charlotte, as she never imagined there would be a peer attacking them.
