Director Isabella Reyes' eyelashes fluttered gently before she slowly opened her eyes.

For a brief moment, everything around her was blurry. The unfamiliar ceiling... the wooden beams... the faint scent of medicinal herbs lingering in the room.

Her brow furrowed. "...Where am I?"

Then yesterday's events rushed back into her mind.

Her eyes widened. She suddenly sat upright with a startled cry.

"The Dragon Clan!"

She instinctively checked herself before looking around the room in confusion.

    Kai didn't waste a single second after leaving the study. He moved through the mansion with a speed ordinary people could never hope to follow, making his way from the storage room to the underground cultivation chamber before finally entering the hidden treasury Adrian rarely opened.One after another, he gathered everything Adrian had requested.The Nine Spirit Incense. The World Compass. The Celestial Mirror.Twelve high-grade spirit stones.Along with several other ancient artifacts that had remained untouchd. Nearly twenty minutes later, Kai pushed open the study door with both arms full."I found everything."He carefully placed the items across the large wooden table while catching his breath. Adrian stepped forward and examined them one after another. The spirit stones were flawless. The World Compass still emitted its ancient spiritual fluctuations, while the Celestial Mirror remained perfectly preserved despite the countless years that had passed.He gave a satisfied nod."

    The private jet landed smoothly just before sunset, neither Adrian nor Catherine spoke much during the flight home.The excitement that had filled the beginning of their vacation had long disappeared, replaced by an uneasy silence neither of them knew how to break. Every now and then, Catherine would glance out the window at the clouds below, while Adrian quietly reviewed everything that had happened on the mountain.The corpse qi plague.None of it left his mind.By the time they stepped out of the airport's private terminal, Kai was already waiting beside a black luxury SUV.He raised one hand when he saw them. "You two finally made it back."Unlike his usual cheerful self, there wasn't the slightest hint of teasing on his face.He simply walked over and took Catherine's suitcase. "I'll put these in the back."Adrian noticed immediately.Kai was forcing himself to stay quiet.During normal circumstances, he would have made at least twenty jokes before they even reached the car.Toda

    The moment the zombie prince stepped through the spatial passage, the familiar scent of corpse qi greeted him.The Zombie World had not changed.The crimson moon still hung high above the dark sky.Ancient black mountains stretched endlessly into the distance, while rivers carrying thick corpse qi flowed quietly between valleys. Dead trees covered the landscape, yet unlike the human world's understanding of death, this realm was full of life.Zombie life.Countless cities stood beneath the crimson moon, illuminated by green spiritual flames instead of lanterns. Cultivators from the zombie race walked through the streets as they always had, their appearances no different from ordinary humans. Some traded resources. Others cultivated peacefully inside their residences.For centuries...They had remained inside their own world.They had honored the agreement made after the Great Calamity.The prince looked at everything before letting out a slow breath.His heart remained heavy.The image

    The news spread across the country far faster than anyone had expected.Within an hour, every major television station interrupted its regular programming to cover the shocking incident at the mountain resort.The headlines alone were enough to throw countless people into panic."Woman Found Dead on Mountain Trail With Mysterious Bite Marks. Authorities Investigating Possible Animal Attack."Another station took an even bolder approach."Eyewitnesses Claim Victim Was Attacked by a Human-Like Creature."Videos recorded by hikers quickly flooded the internet.Police vehicles surrounded the mountain entrance. Ambulances arrived one after another.The hiking trail was completely sealed off.Speculations spread much faster than facts. Some believed it was the work of a dangerous wild animal.Others insisted a serial killer was on the loose. Within minutes, conspiracy theories had begun circulating across social media.Inside the presidential suite of the resort, the television remained on.

    Several hundred meters away, hidden among the dense trees where sunlight barely reached the forest floor, a lone figure stood completely motionless. His pale eyes were fixed on Adrian and Catherine.His breathing had long since stopped.The veins beneath his grayish skin pulsed faintly with corpse qi, while dried blood still stained the corner of his lips.He was the one responsible for the woman's death. He never intended it.He had only wanted to climb the mountain with the woman he loved one last time.Instead... He had become the reason she would never return home.His gaze remained fixed on Adrian.Then suddenly—His pupils shrank violently."...That aura..."His entire body trembled."No...""It can't be..."The corpse qi surrounding his body instinctively began retreating as though it had encountered its natural enemy."The Grandmaster..."His voice was barely louder than a whisper.Although Adrian hadn't fully released his cultivation, the faint spiritual pressure surrounding him

    The hiking trail was nearly empty when their SUV came to a stop at the entrance of the mountain reserve.Catherine stepped out first, taking a deep breath as the cool mountain air brushed against her face.She closed her eyes for a brief moment.."I've missed this."Adrian came around the car, locking it before walking over to stand beside her."The air?"She nodded.."The silence."She looked toward the endless mountain path stretching into the distance."And this."The trail disappeared into a forest of towering pine trees, while birds chirped somewhere overhead. The faint sound of flowing water echoed from deeper inside the mountain.It was peaceful.Completely different from the busy streets they had left behind.Adrian smiled. "I figured you'd like it."Catherine looked sideways at him. "You always figured right."She reached for his hand without thinking.Adrian looked down at their intertwined fingers before smiling quietly."Ready?"She nodded. "I was born ready."They began wal
