Chu Feng almost laughed from the sheer irony.

In Murong Wuque's case, almost everyone in the academy had supported him, insisting it was impossible for him to have been the culprit, or have anything to do with the theft at all.

They had that much faith in their impeccable First Brother. His sacrifices all those years hadn't been for nothing after all.

Most knew he was being set up and kept cheering for him. Although they had been too scared to make any excessive moves or attempt to start a riot

  • Ruthless beyond words

    Chu Feng almost laughed from the sheer irony.In Murong Wuque's case, almost everyone in the academy had supported him, insisting it was impossible for him to have been the culprit, or have anything to do with the theft at all.They had that much faith in their impeccable First Brother. His sacrifices all those years hadn't been for nothing after all.Most knew he was being set up and kept cheering for him. Although they had been too scared to make any excessive moves or attempt to start a riot back then, they still spoke out loudly, insisting that he didn't deserve such disgrace after everything he'd done for the Medicine Sage Valley and the Celestial Realm in general.But today, everyone was unanimous in their disgust for Yuwen Ruohan.Not a single person dared to speak out for him, not even a whisper of sympathy escaping their lips for fear of being lynched by the furious crowd.Even his followers and fellow demon cultivators didn't dare make a peep. Some were even loudly denouncin

    Yuwen Hao’s face was darker than coals, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles emitted faint cracking sounds.All of a sudden, low beeps echoed through the pavilion. His eyes narrowed slightly.He paused midstep, the muscles along his jaw tightening before he slowly turned around and made his way toward the exit.By the time he reached the building’s main entrance, a young man was already waiting there, dressed in his palace guard’s uniform.Yuwen Hao’s heart was filled with irritation, yet he forced icy calmness onto his expression, his eyes the very picture of serenity.The guard was trembling as he stood there, visibly nervous.“Speak!” The guard immediately dropped to his knees, shivering.“My lord, students and top palace masters are gathered in Sinners Pavillion, under the leadership of Su Mei to demand accountability. They're asking you to explain why the young master was that kind of cultivator. Or …”The young man's words drifted off, his lips trembling as though he

  • 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,

    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
