Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

When MingYue spent her time in the virtual world, Alex got in contact with her mother and Emily through Vesa. There, he learned what had happened. He then started sending out his forces to the immortals, trying to stop whatever they planned to do. After all, what they planned would turn his own goal in this world upside down.

It was too late; the Sword Immortal had already made his move and gathered with his comrades.

Up in the sky, particles of light fell like snow. Once upon a time, for Alex, this would have signaled the coming of a holiday, but now it meant something else. What was falling down were the remains of the formation that protected the planet.

Feeling the change in the atmosphere, MingYue squinted her eyes. "Do they really destroy it? But how? No one succeeded till now."

"I don't know for sure, but probably they used my father's formation to infiltrate it from the inside, making the whole formation unstable," Alex replied with a sigh. Now that the strongest beings from this world had left, this meant the world was theirs for the taking, but at the same time, they were exposed to the dangers of the universe.

A green aurora started appearing in the sky. Vesa came out, her face grim. "King, Queen, we need to leave now."

MingYue frowned. Now that her world was exposed, there were many things she needed to take care of, from uniting the world under their sect's control to talking with the guardian and preparing for invasion. But before she could say anything, Alex chimed in. "Vesa is right, MingYue. We need to go quick. Our presence here is like a danger magnet. Those Outer Gods, or the Primordials as my father called them, already know we're here. It's better for us to move."

"That changes nothing." In MingYue's mind, if those beings wanted to make a move on them, there was nothing they could do to escape. They could practically teleport freely throughout the universe.

"It's different, Queen," Vesa knew what MingYue was thinking, but her concern was not the Primordials themselves. The remaining energy left in this world would instead become a deterrent for high-ranked civilizations to come here. Not like they had a reason to come to this planet, as there were no resources that interested them. But this didn't mean they would do nothing; the remains of Primordial energy would at least make them send scouts to find out what had happened. This was what Vesa was afraid of—if they came here and had new ways to detect Progenitor and vampire auras, they would be screwed.

Despite this, MingYue still hesitated. Leaving her brother exposed to the universe was not something she wanted to do. "Don't worry, MingYue. I will take care of them," Luca suddenly said, making Alex raise his eyebrow.

"Mom, you're staying?"

"Yes, there's no need for me to return now. I'd rather look for your father's trail more. Don't worry, in case I need to get back, your father left me some methods."

"But Mom…" Alex wanted to say more, but Luca cut him off. "No buts. This is my decision. Olivia and the others are still here. Someone needs to stay to take care of all of them. Also, we've been away for a while now, Alex. I think it's good for you to check back on the guild. Who knows what happened there?"

Seeing his mother's stern gaze, he knew she wouldn't relent. Any more effort was pointless. Alex turned to look at MingYue, but she just shrugged. Since Luca decided to stay, she felt more comfortable leaving Minghao alone. "How about the Sovereigns, then?"

Alex's lips curled into a cold smile. "Don't worry about them. Other than those two, I have taken care of the rest."

"With the Progenitor blood? I doubt that's enough to kill them."

"It's not, but it's enough to cripple their power. I also already sent Dorian and Selene to follow them. Since none of them will stay here, I think it will be alright." Alex then turned his gaze toward Luca. "In that case, Mom, I will leave everyone here in your hands. As for the goblins and the rest, they should follow your orders if you need them for something."

The world started to shake, qi spreading all around the place. Many immortals emerged from their hiding, flying toward the cracking sky. The strongest ones had already left through the gap, while others were waiting to make sure it was safe. As many came out, conflict also became unavoidable. Those with old grudges started to spar with each other, creating many shockwaves like fireworks in the sky.

"Vesa, let's go, then," Alex ordered, not interested in waiting longer. He knew it was only a matter of time before the formation completely fell.

Vesa grinned, her mouth growing in size. Then, with a single gulp, she took Alex and MingYue from this world. Her own body then dimmed before it completely disappeared. "What now, Mom?" Emily asked, looking at the spot where her brother had just stood with a complicated gaze.

"Let's look for Olivia and the others for now. After everyone is gathered, we'll then talk about it further."

Meanwhile, somewhere else, Olivia, Seraphine, and Quartz were looking at the sky. Ariadne had returned but had already left again to take care of some matters, while Yubina went with her. "Quartz, any idea what's happening?"

"You ask me? Since when did I know stuff like this?"

"I have a bad feeling… Let's look for Ariadne. I want to return to Alex and the others."

"Bad feeling?" Quartz asked with a concerned gaze. It was very rare for Olivia to feel like that, and hearing her tone, it was clear she was in distress.

"I don't know. It's hard to explain. But I feel if I don't do this now, I will regret it forever," Olivia then continued in her mind, 'It's like I will never meet him again…'

"Alright, I will go with you," Quartz replied, not saying anything further. In reality, she still felt curious why Olivia wanted to look for Alex while before, she was the one avoiding him.

Back on Alex's home planet, Ainode, he and MingYue had expected to find themselves back at the spire, with Petricia waiting for them. But what appeared in front of them was something completely different. "Vesa, are you sure this is the right place?" Alex asked while studying his surroundings—a completely foreign environment.
