A burden too heavy
EARTH, VILLA NUMBER SEVEN It's been weeks since Murong Wuque fell out with Alvin. He was still sleeping on the water bed close to his makeshift workstation. He was still taking care of Aurelio like he was being paid to do it. Aurelio seemed to be getting closer to him with every waking day. Now Aurelio could sit up for prolonged periods, or try to grab things to stand. The spirit fruits and nutrients they were feeding him with was finally paying off, making him develop faster than most children his age. They seemed to have settled into a silent routine. Murong Wuque stays with the kid at night, while Alvin attends to whatever it was that needed his attention. Once it was nine in the morning, after he would have rested a bit, Murong Wuque would leave to go attend to his own schedule. Over the past few weeks, Alvin had moved his soldiers to the military district of their now completed permanent base. For weeks, the malice and silent treatment continued, not saying a word to
went berserk
Su Mei's eyes went to the person in black hiding in the shadows and a faint smirk touched her lips but it was gone the next second, before anyone else could notice. Instead, she multiplied the expression of agony on her face, as if she was at the verge of death. The low melodious sound of a flute being played announced the arrival of Zhang Chen, his white robes fluttering in the morning air, the sun illuminating his features. The sound was calming and soothing to the ears, yet carried an undeniable force and pressure. He landed close to Su Mei who was currently floating mid air, his eyes fixed on Yuwen Ruohan. Yuwen Ruohan turned to him, eyes filled with hatred and bloodlust. He raised his other hand towards Zhang Chen, as if to attack him. Almost immediately, Yuwen Ruohan screamed out, agony wracking through his chest. Xi Meng Yao’s needles shot out the moment Yuwen Ruohan's attention split, targeting the acupoints on his arm. His blood and energy flow to the hand attack
A good show to watch
Su Mei’s eyes went wide with shock. She rushed towards the girl, heart pounding erratically. “What's going on? Could she also be a demonic arts practitioner?” “Impossible! Qinghe isn't that kind of person.” Yuwen Ruohan scoffed. Good. More casualties. This would strengthen his case. The girl opened her mouth and a black bead burst out from her throat. Almost immediately, light burst out and the same memories from earlier began to show. “What's going on?” “What just happened here?” Su Mei slowly squatted before the girl, and picked up the black bead. Before their eyes the so-called bead morphed into a bug. Su Mei's eyes went wide. “Demon bugs.” “Isn't that bondage bug? Used by demonic cultivators to trap unsuspecting people and turn them to slaves once the bug matured?” “How come such a thing is in her body?” Chu Feng came closer to Su Mei. “Could it be because of First brother’s aura on the crystal? After he became a divine emperor every item with his aura natural
Harming oneself
Yuwen Ruohan smiled broadly at the reaction of the students, and he threw his head back, a savage smirk splitting his face. ‘That’s right. Tremble. Be horrified. So that when I eventually tear them apart, you all will be right there to fetch the fire.’ “Chu Feng didn’t just use the resources of Wu-Express and Jade Palace for nefarious and personal purposes,” he declared, voice ringing with feigned righteousness. “He also used the powers it accorded him to hurt and kill others. Before this tumor spreads, we have to ensure they hand over Wu-Express, and properly sanction them to prevent a repeat.” The students kept staring at him as if they’d seen a ghost. He frowned. That wasn’t right. By now, they should be cheering him on, calling for Jade Palace to be exterminated. Why weren’t they screaming in outrage? He turned around to check the memory playing, and his face went white in an instant. The video from the memory crystal showed him sucking the girls’ blood with vampire fan
unexpected turn
The elder's words stunned everyone, but Su Ying chuckled. “Some people truly go to every extent. This valley has turned into a joke.” Yuwen Ruohan turned to the guards with him. “Apprehend student Su Ying for questioning. Then move on to the jade palace for a thorough search of their demonic artefacts.” The guards moved to grab Su Ying. Chu Feng's sword rotated in his grasp still sheathed, and he blocked their advance with a casual placement of his arm. His face was blank, eyes colder than igloos. Su Ying looked up at him, surprised. Her heart felt surprisingly warm. Finally seeing someone jump before her to protect her, not just because it was his duty, but because he thought she was special was quite heartwarming. “Attacking guards and obstructing justice, your crime really does keep piling up on top of the other.” The elder barked, eyes glowing as if little volcanoes were hidden behind them. Perhaps it was the hatred boiling inside him. Yuwen Ruohan sucked his teeth and in
a well laid trap
Students were whispering in hushed tones, absolutely horrified by the terrifying nature of the corpses. “This was definitely done by a demonic cultivator. They mustn't be let off.” Chu Feng muttered. “Jade palace disciples have gone against the teachings of the ancestors, guards, hear my order.” Yuwen Ruohan’s voice boomed. Su Mei chuckled. “Yuwen Ruohan, are you certain that these corpses were the handiwork of the jade palace disciples?” The students' murmurs kept increasing in intensity, eyes filled with suspicion and speculation. “It's impossible. Even without the First brother here, we will never disgrace his legacy. Someone definitely dumped the bodies here with bad intentions to frame us!” A jade palace disciple shouted. Many people equally thought there were discrepancies, but didn't dare to voice them out. The situation was quite delicate. No one knew where the next sword would point to. This sort of thing, silence pays better. Wisdom was profitable to direct. Yuw
