Having made up his mind, Carlisle immediately called Jacob Black.

"How many newborns do you think Victoria created?" Lan Xuan asked.

"Not many." Edward held her waist and leaned on the sofa. "We guess there will be no more than twenty. The transformation process is very painful, and people often die in the pain of burning their bodies."

Lan Xuan leaned comfortably on his chest, narrowing his eyes, "Fortunately, I was transformed in a daze when I was unconscious, and I didn't feel that kind of pain."

When it comes to transforming Lan Xuan, I think of what happened 200 years ago, and then I think of my mother, Queen Nala.I remember that in the history of the previous life, Qianlong's successor queen Ulanara gave birth to two sons and a daughter for Qianlong, and died in Qianlong's 31st year at the age of 49.But the current history is different. When she traveled back to China with Edward a few months ago, she checked the information more than once. According to historical records, after the Queen Ulanara died of her daughters Gu Lun and Princess Ya early, she was also overwhelmed by worry. And died of illness, she died in the 17th year of Qianlong at the age of 35.

Every time he thinks of these short records, Lan Xuan's eyes become watery, and feelings of self-loathing and regret flood into his heart uncontrollably.Ever since she became the daughter of Empress Nara, she has always wanted to protect her mother in this life, and avoid the fate of her falling out of favor, being deposed by her son, and dying early.But after all, she overestimated herself too much, thinking that if she was a little cautious, she would not be afraid of anything, and thought that everything would develop according to her own ideas.Even when she was dying after being poisoned, she had no resentment or resentment. The Wei family was sterilized by her. With the prominence of the Ulanara family, as long as Er Niang gave birth to a son-in-law, wouldn't it be one person above ten thousand after a hundred years of Qianlong? under?She has always believed that Er Niang will be the honored pet of her life after her death. It was not until the last time she traveled to China that she wanted to pay homage to Er Niang but could not find the location of her mausoleum. totally different!The result she caused was even worse than in the previous life. Not only did her mother not give birth to a legitimate son who was honored and honored for the rest of her life, but she also lived nearly 15 years less than her original fate!As long as he thinks that the funeral between himself and his mother is only a month away, Lan Xuan can't control the urge to self-destruct.If it wasn't for her being too conceited and being assassinated, Er Niang would not have died of depression because of the loss of her daughter.

Edward looked worriedly at Lan Xuan immersed in his own thoughts again, her brows were slightly tangled unconsciously, her white teeth bit her lips, her expression was very melancholy and helpless.

Edward's heart is not at peace these days, not only because of Victoria, but more because of the partner he has identified.Since the end of the last trip to China, Lan Xuan seems to have been hit hard.Although her behavior and words are the same as before, she is often in a daze, and even the studies that she originally valued have become dispensable, as if she has no interest in anything.Edward is very sensitive to people's emotions, let alone his lover. Lan Xuan's eyes give Edward a feeling that she will disappear at any time. This feeling makes Edward very disturbed. Now he is by her side almost all the time.

After falling in love with Lan Xuan, Edward also learned Chinese and learned a lot about Chinese culture. He knew that Lan Xuan was like this because of her mother.He hoped that Lan Xuan would be freed from this frightening emotion, but he didn't know what to do, he didn't even know how to comfort her.

Feeling the sudden increase in the strength of the arms around his waist, Lan Xuan came back to his senses.Looking at her in a blink of an eye, Edward was looking at her worriedly, his eyes full of fear and uneasiness.

Lan Xuan held his hand and smiled faintly, "I'm fine, don't worry."

"Why is that stinky dog ​​so talkative?" Emmett's loud voice came over.

The two looked up, and it turned out that Carlisle had finished the phone call, and the two of them were immersed in their own thoughts and missed the conversation between Carlisle and Jacob.

"What's going on?" Lan Xuan turned to ask Alice.

Alice looked at her worriedly, and then explained: "Jacob promised to lead the werewolves to defend Fox when Victoria attacked. Although it is impossible for us to cooperate, he promised that the werewolves would not initiate disputes with us during the confrontation with Victoria. Carlisle suggested that he bring the werewolf into our territory tomorrow and learn from Garth the skills of fighting newborns."

"I thought that stinky dog's attitude would not be so good, at least he would not agree to enter our territory." Rosalie was very puzzled. "We don't have a good relationship with werewolves, especially with that troublesome Isabella Swann as his sweetheart."

"It's because of that woman," Edward said. "I didn't expect that woman's stupid behavior could do good things."

All eyes are on him, this is the ultimate intelligence agent of the Karen family.

"That woman has no good intentions for us. Since she was disfigured, she has become extremely fearful and disgusted with us. She knew Jacob's secret and used it as a threat to ask the werewolf to deal with us, otherwise she will kill our family and the Quirut people. Let her secrets be revealed to the public." Edward smiled mockingly, "Of course Jacob didn't promise her, he has to take care of his own tribe, and he has no reason to fight us. He didn't expect that Bella would threaten him with their tribe's secrets." , and couldn’t understand that Bella would harbor ill will towards us who saved her, so the two of them had a big fight.”

Carlisle nodded, "That's right. Our family has no conflict with werewolves. Without the factor of Isabella, although Jacob doesn't like us, at least he won't regard us as enemies."

"What a disgusting woman." Rosalie frowned disdainfully, then looked at Carlisle, "She won't really reveal our secret, will she?"

"She doesn't dare. Ever since she met Victoria, she is extremely afraid of vampires. And Jacob warned her. She dare not become the enemy of vampires and werewolves at the same time." Edward said coldly, although his mind reading ability is very That woman is invalid, but he has a great understanding of the human heart and human nature. Even if his mind-reading ability is invalid, he can roughly read the woman's mind.

"This is the end of the topic." Carlisle looked at Edward with a smile, "I will leave the communication with the werewolf to you tomorrow."

The next morning, the Karens stood waiting in the forest, and the werewolves led by Jacob quickly appeared on time.The appearance of a pack of giant wolves made the bodies of the Karens tense unconsciously.

Carlisle took a step forward, "I think your current body size is not convenient for our next communication. Why don't you transform into a human form? Please believe that we have no malicious intentions."

The werewolves didn't respond. Entering the territory of natural enemies had already made them very nervous. They couldn't guarantee that the vampires wouldn't attack them suddenly when they turned into humans.

"They don't trust us," Edward said.

The lead brown wolf turned his head and growled at his companions, then ran into the bushes.

"It's Jacob," said Edward. "He's willing to trust Carlisle."

Jacob, wearing only his pants, walked out of the bushes and stood in front of the werewolf, "This is temporary, we just follow your proposal and learn from you the skills of fighting those newborn vampires, but this does not mean that we form an alliance with you. According to the previous regulations, if you hunt humans in Forks, we will drive you out!"

"Come on, maybe you have that ability." Rosalie said mockingly.

The werewolves growled in dissatisfaction.

"Rosalie!" Carlisle stopped her, "We didn't come here to fight each other."

Jacob didn't know what to say to his companions, and they all ran into the bushes.

"They compromised," Edward said. "They shared spirits when they were in wolf form, and Sam was sure from Jacob's memory that we meant no harm to them, so they agreed to come here."

"What are they doing in the bushes?" Lan Xuan asked suspiciously, "Are the werewolves not allowed to watch when they transform?"

"They are going to get dressed." Edward explained to her with a smile, "When they transform into wolves, they will take off their clothes first, otherwise the clothes will be torn after transformation."

"You mean, they are actually naked when they transform into wolves?" Lan Xuan was very surprised, "Then don't they have to take off and put on clothes all the time before and after transforming?"

"Indeed." Edward nodded.

While they were talking, the werewolves came out in twos and threes in human form.

A tall man stood beside Jacob, his eyes were full of wariness, "We will pay attention to your explanation, but we will not get too close."

"That's fine." Carlisle nodded and pointed at Gaspar, "This is my son Gaspar. He used to be a soldier and has enough experience in this area. He will teach us how to fight and defeat those Newborn vampire."

"He's Sam." Jacob pointed to the man and introduced, then asked Carlisle: "Those vampires...I mean those led by Victoria, are they different from you?"

Carlisle nodded, "It's only been a few months since they became vampires, and they're all newborn vampires. They don't know skills or strategies, and their only advantage is strength and speed. Gaspar, it's your time now."

Gaspar nodded, and took a few steps towards the open space between the two sides. He looked at the werewolves warily, trying not to tense up his body, "Newborns have a short period of time to transform into vampires. There is still blood left, so they are very powerful, but they are irrational, they can't think and they can only use brute force to attack. There are two most important points to fight against them. First, don't be surrounded by their arms around the neck. Second, Second, to avoid frontal attacks, we can attack from the side or the rear, quickly move to interfere with them, disrupt their pace of action, and they will form a mess and attack each other."

Gaspar said and looked at Emmett, "Emmett's attack style is very similar to theirs, I think I can use him as a demonstration."

"You think I can't think but use brute force?" Emmett gritted at him in protest.

Gaspar smiled apologetically, "I mean you have great strength, and your attack method is very direct. Newborns don't know any skills, and can only attack with the simplest movements. Alright, Emmett, let's start."
