Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Chapter 45: Pillar of Flame (Bonus Chapter 100 ps)



The old man started feeling panic as he felt like he was being absorbed by some indiscernible power.

"Don't worry, old man. MingHao will fulfill your dream. Just do your work."

Those were the last words the old man heard before everything turned dark for him until MingHao used the ring later on.

The skeleton then crumbled into dust. MingYue took the ring with her.

With the core gone, the array protection inside the Ancestral Hall also started turning off, barely functioning with the energy remnants in the circuit.

MingYue didn't rush out of the room since there was no one else around; this place was the best for her breakthrough.

She then sat in the lotus position and closed her eyes.

Knowing what to do, Vesa began converting all the excess life force into MingYue's cultivation.

Green threads of life force started spreading in her body toward her core formation.

MingYue took breaths in a specific pattern, circulating the energy to ensure everything ran smoothly. It didn't take long for her cultivation to rise by one minor realm.

"Isn't the result too small? I absorbed life force from three peak Nascent Soul stages. Did you take some of it too?" MingYue asked, feeling suspicious.

[…]

[Uh, Queen, I did take some of it, but the majority of it was lost since I filtered it to ensure no side effects were left in your cultivation.]

"Why would you need to take it? I asked you before, and you said this life force barely had any use in recovering your power."

Vesa paused for a moment, thinking of what to say since it didn't want to reveal information behind the King's back.

[This is because of what happened on the King's side. You should ask him about it.]

[The King also found a good method to raise your life force limit.]

[Right now, I keep every excess of life force. It's no problem for now, but this will mean you cannot use it.]

"Using it? What purpose does the life energy have other than boosting my cultivation?"

On Alex's side, he still needed to finish all foundation stages before he could use life force to boost his cultivation quickly.

However, Vesa thought Alex probably wouldn't do this much since he wanted to modify how cultivation worked.

Vesa then explained how life force could be used to heal her body, and in the future, she would learn how to use it in a fight.

MingYue then returned to the ancestral hall. She looked toward the Xueqi family's ancestral gravestone.

Before, she would have destroyed all of it, but out of respect for the old man, she took it all into her storage ring.

She knew the place would be pillaged by the commoners soon. If she didn't do this, the gravestone would be desecrated.

Outside, people had already gathered and prepared to leave.

With MingYue's return, they then started the trip back to the secret realm after they were some distance away from the city.

BOOM!!!

A pillar of flame exploded, making MingHao turn his head back.

He was currently sitting in the carriage driver's seat with ZanLu. From that direction, he could tell it was from Dai Yin City.

ZanLu didn't seem surprised since it was something he had prepared under MingYue's orders.

"Don't worry, it just blew up the Xueqi family estate. We already informed the people left there about this; there should be no casualties."

Hearing this, MingHao's shoulders slumped. "Sis is always so decisive. She really destroyed everything. The Xueqi family is no more now."

"I don't know how you Cultivators do things, but aren't you and your sister here? Young Master, a family is where the people are. As long as you continue the Xueqi family name, it will always exist."

Hearing those words, MingHao's eyes flickered.

ZanLu could see a flame of determination in them. He then continued talking to comfort and motivate MingHao.

Behind the carriage, Jiang Feng looked at the pillar of flame with a complicated gaze. He was now moving with his whole family, deciding to move away from the city.

He didn't want to stay there any longer; over time, his attachment to the Xueqi family had dwindled.

He then looked to his right side, seeing his daughter-in-law carrying his granddaughter.

His eyes filled with love and expectation.

Jiang Feng still remembers the phenomenon from when she was born; he could feel the room vibrate at that time, with a strange pressure pulling them down, as if a heavy weight was on their shoulders.

He hoped his granddaughter could grow into a strong cultivator so she could have control over her own fate.

Meanwhile, inside the carriage, MingYue didn't care about all this.

She could hear what MingHao and ZanLu talked about if she wanted, but she didn't feel any interest.

'Alex, are you busy?'

'No, I'm on the road now. Oh yeah, MingYue, before you say anything further, I need to tell you something.'

Alex then told her what had happened to his sister. He didn't tell her the details, only the context and parts that impacted her.

This made MingYue frown. 'No wonder Vesa keeps saying to ask you... So you are saying I need to look for an immortal to kill now? And you need to find a similar one in your world?'

'No, you just take care of what you want to do and the sect. This is my mistake, so I will be the one responsible for it. And I owe you one for this. Do you have anything you want?'

Knowing there was nothing she could do about the situation, MingYue decided not to pursue it further.

She would just capitalize on the opportunity; there was something she wanted.

Even though she knew they would spend a long time together, it didn't mean they would become close automatically; their relationship now was more like a business partnership.

If she wanted something from Alex's world, she would provide something from her side. So would Alex.

'Yes.'

'What is it? A gun? Another gadget? Machine?' Alex asked in MingYue's mind.
