Stuck in an unpleasant shadow
CELESTIAL REALMValley Master's PalaceYuwen Hao’s face was dark, his features twisted with barely restrained murderous intent.He stood before a window overlooking the entrance to his secret garden, his hands clasped behind his back. His eyes slowly morphed into a strange russet colour, the change reflecting the fury churning beneath his otherwise rigid composure.The past two days had been absolute chaos.Not just in the Medicine Sage Valley, but across the entire Tian Luo continent.Rumours of Yuwen Ruohan being from a demonic ancestry had spread far and near. As his father, naturally, people cast the dark light on him.Everywhere he turned, he could almost feel those suspicious gazes following him. Every decision he had made, every subtle move he had carefully concealed beneath the authority of the Valley Master, was suddenly being dragged into the light and given a sinister interpretation.Now, every subtle effort made to suppress Murong Wuque in the past suddenly became a result
TOO MANY knots
Murong Wuque's gaze lingered on Aurelio for a while.The child suddenly grinned at him, blowing spit bubbles all over the place.“Papa…” He suddenly called out.Murong Wuque's heart skipped a beat.It wasn't his first time hearing the tiny babble, but his heart wouldn't stop pounding each time. There was something about hearing that single word from Aurelio's tiny mouth that struck a place in him no battle, no cultivation breakthrough, and no amount of praise had ever managed to reach.“My sweetheart,” he whispered, kissing Aurelio's cheek.The child giggled, his face lighting up with happiness.For a very brief moment, the heaviness in Murong Wuque's chest lifted.The corners of his lips curved slightly as he looked at the little boy in his arms, and for those few seconds, the looming war, his damaged core, the uncertain journey back to the celestial realm, and all the dangers waiting for him seemed to fade into the background.There was only Aurelio.The more he stared at the child,
lie low
Murong Wuque's mind kept running in circles as he stared at the wall.He was leaving. He really was.He always knew that the spaceship which he had worked so hard on had been completed. This was a moment he had long anticipated, one he had worked harder than anyone to bring to reality. He had spent countless days and nights preparing for this very moment, enduring setbacks, solving problems, and pouring resources into the project simply because returning home had once seemed like the only thing that mattered.So why was this heaviness in his chest threatening to squash him?Why did the thought of leaving no longer fill him with the joy he had expected?His gaze remained fixed on the wall, but his thoughts had already travelled far beyond the room.The Medicine Sage Valley needed him. His disciples and juniors were waiting for him to save them. There were people back in the celestial realm who were counting on his return, and with the war looming over Tian Luo, his presence would not m
Spaceship is ready to leave
Villa number seven, Alvin's room.The slight vibration of a ring on Murong Wuque's left index fingers had him opening his eyes.He had been sitting cross-legged, cultivating. The room was currently empty save for him and baby Aurelio.The faint spiritual energy circulating around his body gradually settled as he brought his cultivation to a stop. He remained still for another moment, his breathing slow and controlled, before finally opening his eyes fully.He uncrossed his legs and stood up, his eyes going to his own workstation at the opposite end of the room.The workstation was neat and orderly, with nothing out of place. Murong Wuque preferred things that way. There was comfort in knowing where everything was, especially in a place where too many things had begun slipping beyond his control.He unlocked a metal drawer and brought out a customized phone. He tapped on a few buttons and a call finally came through. He swiped on ‘answer’.“First brother…” It was Qin Li at the other en
Familiar faces, unexpected knives
Alvin’s jaw tightened, his eyes darkening slightly. “He went to school!” Elena suddenly blurted out. Alvin slowly looked up at her. His eyes settled on her face. She appeared slightly nervous. School? Hadn’t he received a newsletter from the university authorities stating that the semester was over and the students would be going on a short break? Had Elena forgotten that he was Oliver’s sponsor and received regular updates from his school? Why was she lying to him? Had she been deceived as well? Or could there be something deeper going on? His tongue dragged slowly against his molar as he carefully turned the possibilities over in his mind. When Murong Wuque had stripped Elena of her access to confidential documents, restricted her access to certain websites and official seals, and relieved her of some of her duties, leaving her to focus primarily on Empire Group, Alvin had thought Wuque was being excessive. He had considered it an unnecessary complication—making things mo
Nagging suspicion
Once Alvin was done with his bath, he dressed in his pajamas and headed downstairs. Murong Wuque was still sitting cross-legged on the sofa, cultivating. “Young master,” Martha called out the moment he reached the corridor. Leah, who was dressed to go out, turned around alongside Tiffany and Elena. “Brother…” She quickly stood up and rushed toward him, a hint of anxiety visible on her face. Alvin offered her a small smile. “What’s wrong?” Leah took his hands in hers and looked up at him, scanning his body for any signs of injury. “Are you alright?” She turned him around, checking his back and neck. “You didn’t return on time yesterday. Do you know how worried I was?” Tiffany and Elena stood up and gave him a slight bow. “Good morning, boss.” He nodded and gave them a playful wave before turning back to Leah. He flicked her forehead lightly. “Silly girl. What could possibly happen to me?” Leah stared at him, a hint of suspicion in her eyes. She still didn't seem completely
