MARK OF THE CRAZY
On the bedside stand, there was a very prominent artifact featured there. It was glowing, the holy aura blinding. It was a sophisticated golden incense burner in the shape of an egg. The smoke coming from it was non toxic. It wasn't smoke perse. Just natural energy being collected from the environment and sent back out. It's like air purifier, but in this case, what's being purified wasn't just dust, but also possible unpleasant auras. Above the bed was a dazzling silver dagger, which was hanging on a fixture Alvin was sure wasn't there a while ago. It looked like the sword which Murong Wuque often carries into battle, but this wasn't sword. It was a dagger with dazzling cold aura, filled with righteous wrath. Like it was waiting for the slightest irritation to unleash carnage. “What's that?” Alvin's gaze couldn't leave the dagger. It was even more resplendent than the golden egg incense burner. Like it had a powerful attractive force attached to it. Murong Wuque smiled, and
A LOT OF MESS TO CLEAN
Cold sweat matted the surface of Alvin’s skin, and his heart began to pound erratically. No. It couldn't be. He recruited Ryker with promises of a better life and future. If he falls into danger because of him, he would never forgive himself. He took deep breaths, trying to calm himself down. He gave himself pep talks, reminding himself he personally trained Ryker. Ryker was also incredibly intelligent, efficient and tough. It was impossible for him to fall into that kind or cheap trap after surviving in the underworld business for so long. Unless someone familiar was involved…like Tiffany or Qin Li. However, he believed that those two would never do anything to harm him. Qin Li and his qilin palace back home were rigidly devoted to Murong Wuque. Qin Li was famous for his rigid uprightness and high moral compass. He was a true swordsman with a powerful sword spirit, he wouldn't do something despicable without harming his sword soul and cultivation. As for Tiffany, she was very
Evil and hated leaders
CELESTIAL REALM After Murong Wuque's disturbing projection with the mirror formation at the Ascension pavillion, the Medicine Sage Valley caught fire. Those who were thought to be working with the evil elders didn't have it easy. Rumors and speculations spread like wildfire. Murong Wuque's people did well to disemminate everything he said about impostors pretending to be him and using his identity to scam people, harvest lives and commit atrocities. Su Ying used the Su family's resources to pass messages along to elite clans, merchant groups and the Murong imperial family’s allied clans. Wu-express used its sales and espionage channels to send messages to other continents, informing them about all Murong Wuque said, through secret underground disemmination pathways. Now, beyond Tian Luo continent, everyone most certainly knew Murong Wuque was set up and trapped by people with evil intentions. Whispers of what could have really happened seeped between cracks. Others wondered
UNWAVERING FAITH
Su Mei seeing that no elder stepped forward climbed the podium. “First of all, I wish to thank the disciples for staying true to their hearts and honoring the warrior’s code. I know we all are worried about our first brother. Like you all, we also wish and pray he makes it home soonest. There's no need for panic. We only have to believe in him. No matter how tough it is, wherever that place is, we believe he would return safely. He always have.” Many people nodded, agreeing. In the past, no matter the level of difficulty, or how many people had died in an abyssal zone, Murong Wuque always returned alive. Injured most times, but alive nevertheless. Why should this time be any different? Although he's poisoned with the soul eating poison, with his divine emperor cultivation, he should be able to survive. “Regarding the issue of someone using his technique to deceive others, we should treat it as a matter of the highest urgency. All use of techniques taught by our First brother ar
LOVE AMIDST TRIALS
Su Mei hurried to the entrance to see what was happening. The rest also wanted to follow, but Chu Feng blocked them. “Let Su Mei and Zhang Xiao Wei handle this. Going out like this might cause unnecessary complications if it's something serious.” Su Ying sighed, visibly displeased. But she knew he had a point. Especially for her who had already offended the valley master. As if Zhang Chen could read her thoughts, he bumped her arm, making her turn around, her face still contorted into a displeased frown which made look cute instead of scary. “A'Ying, say, how much trouble do you think you've attracted this time?” Su Ying’s eyes narrowed, Chu Feng’s lips twitched. “You better watch your back nowadays and never go out at night. You've offended that old hyena, he must be itching to bite off your pouty succulent head. Graaah!” His growl was accompanied with a pouncing motion that made Su Ying sneer. “Our A'Ying lured in the tiger. What if it bites her to death? We have to pro
FORCED INTO OVERSIZED SHOES
Celestial realm, Medicine sage valley. Jade palace main entrance. The disciples guarding the gates had their brows drawn together, swords crossed, barring the entrance. “Please stay back. Jade palace is off limits. No one is allowed in.” The two messengers scowled at the disciples blocking the entrance, eyes roving all over the interior parts their eyes could reach. As if searching for something, anything. “No one is allowed in? How come I see lots of people who are not members of the jade palace in the courtyard?” One snapped. The head disciple leading the guards sighed, feeling his temple throb fiercely. “No stranger is allowed inside Jade palace. Everyone in there has permits and access tokens granted by our master himself. All working for him.” His eyes zeroed in on the one persistently pushing. “As for you, on what grounds are you demanding to enter? Is our jade palace a place just anyone could enter and leave as they pleased?” “Just anyone?” The elder’s disciple's f
never a good day
Less than an hour after Zhang Xiao Wei left, another commotion arose at the gates. This time louder. Su Mei, who was sitting with the others at Jade Pavillion, frowned. Ouyang Tingling sighed, her head turning in the direction of the gates. “What could be the problem this time?” Su Ying chuckled, and shook her head. “It's laughable. Pests that didn't dare to squeak when First brother was around. Now they won't stop flying around.” Zhang Chen leaned back, resting his weight against a pillar. “They think it would be a case of when the commander dies, the soldiers scatter. Funny. Another commander will rise to the mandate. We have to cultivate even harder and expand our network. If it didn't happen to First brother, we wouldn't have known how wicked and conniving they were.” The commotion got louder. Zhang Chen cursed out, frustrated, and stood up. “Let me check it out.” Xi Meng Yao, Murong Wuque’s female disciple who acts as the housekeeper, equally came out from the dining courty
Ridiculous and shameless requests
Su Ying shot up from her position on seeing the injured Yang Yang. “Fourth brother, what happened?” “We were ambushed by assasins targeting the energy crystals, artifacts and pills we were carrying.” An Si Feng answered, causing gasps, sighs and sharp inhales to follow in their little group. Su Ying's attention diverted to Zhang Xiao Wei who just landed, his face heavy. Ouyang Tingling shook her head. As expected, nothing good ever came out of the elders council. “What did the elders council want this time?” Su Mei asked, watching Zhang Xiao Wei sit cross legged on the floor. Yang Yang hair bristled on hearing elders council, his disappointment morphing into hatred. “They wanted me to hand over First brother's serpent punishing rod.” Zhang Chen punched the floor, his teeth giving off a harsh grating sound. “Those bastards!” Ouyang Tingling spat. “Because they discovered First brother can use the serpent punishing rod to communicate with us, they want to seize it. Despica
Ally or enemy?
Back to the present. (Villa number seven) Alvin couldn't wrap his head around it. Murong Wuque was the one who loved him the most. Why would he betray him? What need did he see to stab him in the back? His love for Alvin was sincere, that much was visible, even to the blind. If the love wasn't sincere and strong enough, the soul tie wouldn't have formed between them. The soul tie aside, Murong Wuque had risked his own safety numerous times to help him out, save his life. If he really wanted to sabotage him, why not let the evil organization do it themselves? Lord Ning alone from the dark owl fortress would have been enough to deal with him. Why would Murong Wuque do everything to bring the dead him back to life, only to stab him in the back by going to his safe to steal info? “Could this be a misunderstanding?” His eyes went to Murong Wuque, who was smiling at Aurelio and playing with him, eyes relaxed and bright with joy. Alvin shook his head. Murong Wuque's shade of silv
Seed of discord
Alvin stayed for a few more minutes to get a hold on his mind. Another few minutes were spent examining the secret compartment again for possible discrepancies. Finding none, he made his way outside to the bathroom. This time, the communication devices were locked in a computerized cabinet inside the hidden compartment. Then he made his way to the bathroom to clean up. Another thirty minutes was spent soaking in a tub of warm herbal water. The soothing herbs did nothing to calm the confusion and guilt in his heart. Confused because he couldn't determine if Murong Wuque was truly the enemy working against him. Guilty because doubting someone who had been nothing but good to you was despicable and traitorous. He groaned and slipped under the water, hoping the lack of air would finally shock his body into getting his shit together. Inside the room, Aurelio finally dozed off. Murong Wuque exhaled and set him down in his baby cot placed beside the adults’ bed. Layers of protective
