Alvin slowly leaned closer to Murong Wuque’s face, his Adam's apple bobbing as he inhaled the sweet natural scent on his target's body. Murong Wuque frowned as he looked at Alvin, not understanding the reason he kept drawing closer to his face, his eyes drifting shut. Murong Wuque’s eyes equally drifted shut, and Alvin's nose rubbed against his cheek, causing a strange shiver to run down his spine. His lips followed, placing a soft kiss on his ear, just as he opened his mouth to suck in Murong Wuque's lobe into his mouth, the spell disappeared. He inhaled sharply and bit his tongue hard, horrified that he had nearly raped the silver haired Iceman. Thankfully, the innocent Murong Wuque didn't seem to have understood what went down. The poor virgin seemed confused on what Alvin was doing with his ear. If he had known what was about to happen, he would have turned him into mincemeat at the spot. Alvin patted his shoulder and stepped back. “Don't be sad, alright?” He smiled awkwa

GSS stadium It was the first day of the global star search competition. Everywhere was teeming and bustling with both spectators and contestants. Some of the contestants were rookies, some were already established musicians looking for ways to break into the global scene. Global star search was a coalition of the ten biggest entertainment companies in the world, and this year they were holding it in Ameria, Alvin's country of residence. His SW entertainment were among the sponsors. However, he didn't want to go through the back door or use his connections. There was no need to, he was doing fine on his own. Besides, he needed to defeat Sonya Carter and her bastard lover fair and square. They used underhanded means to rob him of his life, but they were too insignificant for Alvin to use special means on. He was going to teach them a lesson without using his resources from the system, just his raw talent and cunning. Alvin was sitting in the back seat of the Chevrolet SUV which he

Alvin stepped out into the backstage, which was already occupied by another set of musicians waiting to be called up. They looked at him strangely, and he had no other option than to move to the passageway. He was done, and someone else had replaced him in the waiting booth, as it should be. Tiffany eagerly rushed to him. “Boss, you were so awesome.” Shi Yue was standing behind her, looking exhausted and resentful. But the moment Alvin looked at her, she smiled brightly. “Brother, you're amazing. Even though I didn't understand all the words, I was still captivated by your voice. I didn't want you to stop.” Alvin chuckled and accepted the towel from Tiffany. “That's to be expected. I was born for this, for music.” He pinched Shi Yue’s rosy cheek, at once, she forgot the unpleasantness of being lost in the crowd and genuine happiness flooded her heart. Alvin removed his mask to properly wipe off the sweat on his face. “Let's go.” Tiffany suddenly gasped after they had gone

Murong Wuque pushed him away and teleported into their room. At once, Alvin’s eyes filled with tears. He finally understood the reason he said it was his fault. He was dying, all because of his selfish, thoughtless acts. He took a deep breath and went after Murong Wuque. “Wuque,” Alvin whispered, coming to a halt beside Iceman who was on the balcony, bringing out bandages. Murong Wuque didn't even turn to look at him. “Why are you crying like a girl? Did something happen?” His tone was as rude as always, but his heart was aching. He didn't want Alvin to know that the poison flared up because he undid the seal on his powers in an instant to locate Alvin the day the bomb nearly exploded on him. He had known that tearing it off in a panic, in order to access his lightning transfer technique, which allowed him to travel at the speed of light, would make the seal on the poison shaky, making it unstable. All efforts to reseal it proved abortive since he was severely short on materia

An hour later, Alvin sneaked back into the room, and found Murong Wuque sitting cross legged, he was sweating heavily, and he had an expression of immense pain on his face, and flower patterns covered every inch of his skin, glowing brightly. Alvin's heart skipped multiple beats and he dumped the tray containing snacks on the nearby table and jumped towards him. “Wuque, Wuque, what's wrong?” “The Primordial life elixir was poisonous, and I took more than a drop.” He managed to bite out, barely holding back a groan of pain. Alvin gasped, feeling dizzy. He nearly collapsed due to the shock, and his hand began to shake. “It was the poisonous essence, not the life elixir.” “No, it's the life elixir, but someone corrupted it, making it even more powerful and volatile than normal. I really need to go back immediately, lots of things are going wrong in that place.” “Dummy!” Alvin shouted in exasperation. “You're at the point of death, barely holding onto life, yet you're worrying
