Just as Alvin stood up, he felt a chill come from the direction of the stairs. The person capable of causing a change in temperature even before they appeared was not two in villa number seven. There standing on the mighty spiral staircase some distance away was Murong Wuque. He was looking as ravishing as usual. Droplets of water could be found on his face, but his hair was dry, probably done using his wind magic. He was dressed in sky blue silk robe and pajama pants, adorning his beautiful feet were a pair of expensive crocs. His long silver hair fell elegantly on his shoulders, held away from his face by a set of milky jade hair clasps and pins. He looked like an ancient prince from heaven. No, he was one. Everyone held their breaths as he slowly descended from the stairs. His ethereal beauty made it seem as if everywhere brightened up the moment he appeared. Or perhaps, it was his aura. He stopped before Alvin and took his place at the head of the table. Surprisingly, eve

Murong Wuque let go of them and they all dropped to the floor, tumbling on top of each other. Shi Yue's eyes went wide with fear and her mouth dropped open. Oliver who had been silent all along let out an ear piercing shriek and jumped out of his wheel chair. He wobbled to where they fell and collapsed beside his sister. He pushed Leah who fell on top of Elena away and tried to move his sister, crying heavily. Alvin clutched Murong Wuque by the lapels, his eyes spitting fire. “If anything happens to them, I will never forgive you or let you off. We will die together if I have to.” He licked his lips and took in a ragged breath, trying to control himself. His eyes were a bit red and he rushed to the collapsed people. Alvin checked Elena’s body. She merely lost consciousness due to suffocation. She was still alive. He immediately lay her on her back. Qin Li joined him, laying the girls on their backs, trying to revive them. Sam and Joe were still conscious, they merely cra

Alvin rushed to her and helped her to a sofa. “Martha, calm down. Be mindful of your age and health. Don't get unnecessarily scared. I won't let him go overboard with you.” She shook her head, overcome with agony. She kept hitting her chest repeatedly, finding it hard to breathe. Alvin wanted to caution Murong Wuque to tone down his aura, but he knew that the situation called for brutal force. Otherwise, they wouldn't get any result and the culprit would get even bolder if they escaped unscathed this time. He turned to Murong Wuque. “You can check the others, but let Martha off for now.” Qin Li cut in, looking anxious. “That's right, First brother. She's already an old woman, and her health isn't all that great. Don't scare her. You can handle the rest however you want, but her age is already advanced, too much shock might cause unnecessary problems.” Murong Wuque gave him a chilling glare, from head to toe. “Even old people are veteran assassins. I don't expect that lev

“First brother…” Qin Li began, making everyone turn to him. Shi Wei inhaled deeply and took a step towards him. “Qin Li, what do you think about this case?” Alvin also turned, eager to hear his opinion. Qin Li was cold and upright, he would never make a decision based on emotions. So he was the best candidate when it comes to being a good judge of character. Meng Ying also looked at him, her eyes had a complicated expression in them, and she looked guarded, almost as if she was being careful not to give anything away. Qin Li felt a heavy weight pressing down on his shoulders. Even the crying girls turned to him, waiting on him to deliver the verdict. “If First brother said she's the one then there's a 98% probability that she's the main culprit he was looking for.” His words made everywhere go silent, and they held their breaths, totally stunned. “You can't just say that because he's your first brother.” Shi Yue cried out, rushing to stand before Shi Meng Ying. Shi We

Cuts began to appear on her body, and her beautiful white robe began to change color in some places, bearing splotches of blood. A grey vortex appeared behind her, and she tried to dive into it. Murong Wuque flicked his finger, smacking her to the floor. The grey vortex instantly disappeared. Alvin, seeing that things were getting out of hand, quickly drew a line, setting up a hasty exclusion formation. The energy wall separated them from the other non cultivators in the living area. While they can still see what was going on, the energy won't be able to get to them. Martha gasped out loud, same with the others. Their breaths had seized when Murong Wuque’s purple lightning appeared. But thanks to Alvin's quick thinking, they were encircled out of the toxic space before any real harm could be done. The girls looked scared, all except Tiffany. She looked giddy and her eyes were shining with longing and eagerness as she gazed at them through the transparent partition. Although
