Let Me Show You Something

It turned out that this was the demon hunters' true target.

They were not trying to kill the Countess of the Crimson Moon or stop Vivian from waking up. Their real purpose was to prevent the disaster brought about by Vivian's awakening. Hao Ren had no idea how closely the demon hunters of Coldpath had been watching Vivian. But now it seemed that it was more than what he had imagined, so much so that it could trigger the early warning system in Coldpath. Hasse and his Hunters were apparently part of this warning system.

Hao Ren understood all but one thing: the demon hunters had always been indifferent to other races; other than immersing in their never-ending hunting, they could not care less about the life and death of humans, let alone protect them. Their limited alliance with the humans was built on the premise of carrying out hunting activities, without which they would not give a care to the sufferings in human society.
