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
Back like a dream
There was no answer. Murong Wuque's eyes remained closed. Alvin carefully carried Aurelio away and wore the bottle around Murong Wuque's neck. Murong Wuque frowned in his sleep, causing Alvin's heart to skip multiple beats. He couldn't help but notice how handsome this prince of his was. A small smile appeared on his face. As Alvin's palm reached out to touch Murong Wuque, he (Wuque) suddenly turned and reached for Aurelio. Alvin's eyes went wide with shock. Even in his subconscious, he wasn't letting anyone take the kid away. He grabbed the kid back and tucked him into his arm. The tousling and jostling woke Aurelio and his lids drifted open. But on smelling Murong Wuque's scent, he closed his eyes and promptly went back to sleep. Alvin stared, dumbfounded. When did they get so attached? “Wuque, you need to return him. Otherwise, he will absorb some of your life force.” He tried to take Aurelio again. This time, a powerful hand clasped around his wrist, stopping him from
Why help me?
Another thirty minutes passed. Murong Wuque had done everything he could think of, but Alvin didn't wake up. Left with no other option, he bathed him and carried him back inside. Once he was safely on the bed, Murong Wuque brought out a necklace whose pendant was a bottle filled with his own life essence and spiritual power. It would drain his life force and cultivation. But at this point, to wake Alvin up, he needed to use his own body to replenish what Alvin lost. A warm glow radiated from the pendant atop Alvin's chest, and slowly the warm glow spread to encase every part of his body. Slowly, he began to recover. With each shade of color that returns to Alvin's face, Murong Wuque got paler. Once he was sure Alvin had stabilised, he turned to return to the bathroom. Aurelio who had sat up and was looking around immediately saw him and burst into tears, trying to grab the cot and move closer. Murong Wuque, who was about to walk past, paused and looked at the child. “Papa i
Fighting the parasite
Murong Wuque held his breath, eyes closed, all senses focused on what was going on in Alvin's body. The Veyrath drew back. His heart jumped. He immediately reviewed his plans. The Veyrath must have been here when Alvin was fucking him, incubating and gathering power. It seems he would have to trick it further. The ball of light rolled around and drew back. Murong Wuque leaned down and began to kiss him, while his two fingers massaged his throat to cause vibrations similar to the throat constricting during a kiss. The familiar movement made the retreating Veyrath pause, reassured. Then it returned, giving the escaping ball of energy a hot chase. Murong Wuque continued kissing him. He already made his decision to swallow and engulf the deadly creature inside his own body. The creature sped up on seeing the ball of energy almost escaping from reaching. Soon it reached the throat. Murong Wuque engulfed the ball into his mouth, still kissing him. The Veyrath immediately detected
Lethal dilemma
Time was going. He needed to extract the deadly insect and also trap it to prevent it from finding a new host among the house's occupants. Alvin's life force was fast slipping away. He simply couldn't stand by and do nothing. Although Alvin had been quite an ass to him, letting him die was a kind of heart crushing loss he was unwilling to endure. Every information he'd ever read about the Veyrath insect played in his mind. Insects no matter how dangerous had one universal enemy no matter how powerful and poisonous they could be. Birds. Birds feed on insects, especially the bird species with flaming bodies that could burn everything to ashes. Getting a Firebird wasn't a problem since he had one in his vast soul palace where his divine beasts were relaxing. The problem was luring it out of Alvin’s body. Veyraths also had high intelligence and tenacity. If it remotely suspects it was being attacked, it would go haywire, intending to pull the victim down with it. Right now, there
Cursed Blood Devouring Insect
Murong Wuque’s purple-blue eyes went wide with panic, his heart beating a mile a minute. Alvin was quickly fading away. His hands trembled uncontrollably as he checked Alvin's pulse once again. It was getting weaker and weaker, his life force fading. Murong Wuque summoned a burst of divine power and immediately ran the warm energy all over his body. However, the entire thing disappeared in mere seconds with nothing to show for it. His lips pursed together. That much divine power should at least stabilise Alvin’s vitals and keep his life force from draining too fast. But, it seemed to have had no effect whatsoever. No, it was deeper than that. Something appeared to have been sucking everything away. His gaze narrowed, suspicion and dread visible in them. He scooped the naked Alvin out of the herbal bath and moved to the dressing room. In the middle of the dressing room was a plush table whose top was upholstered. The soft fabric made it comfortable to lie down on. He carefully
