Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 203: Rook the Skeleton

The wine poured into his skeleton, passing through the empty body and wetting the legs.

The skeleton then clicked his jaw, "I forgot I cannot taste the wine," he said with annoyance, as the atmosphere around him changed again.

'Is that even the problem here? In the first place, why are you even trying to drink wine with that body?' MingYue thought.

Her amber eyes then looked downward toward the wine cup; she could sll the strong alcohol aroma coming from it.

Without touching it, she returned her gaze back toward the skeleton. "Should I call you ancestor too?"

"KAKAKA! What Ancestor? Just call Rook. I already told Lin to call by na, too, but she keeps insisting on calling Ancestor."

"Of course, I need to give respect to those older than ," Lin Fang replied.

From a dramatic angle, the skeleton touched his chest. "Lin, I am still young. What are you talking about?" Then, as if he got a eureka mont, Rook said, "Oh, I forgot I already died; age doesn't matter, KAKAKA."

"I will call you Rook then. I will not deny that I have contact with another world. I can exchange information with him, but as for the details, I cannot tell you."

"That will not do, MingYue. At the very least, I need to know what intentions your friend has with this planet."

"Hmm... that I can answer. Their only purpose is to grow my sect. If you are worried we are looking for your clan, then I can assure you we are not."

"What species is your friend?"

"He is a human too."

Clang! Clang!

The skeleton tapped his bony finger again as he thought deeply.

Lin Fang, anwhile, frowned upon hearing the new information. She had never heard the words' planet' or 'species.'

She didn't understand anything they were talking about. But she didn't want to be rude by interrupting their discussion. Lin Fang planned to ask MingYue later about this.

Ti passed, and Rook let out a sigh. "What do you think, Lin Fang?"

"Ancestor, you want to decide?"

"Yes, as you see, I cannot move from this place, so if you want to go, you will need to be the one to lead our people."

"But, Ancestor, I don't even know what you are talking about."

"Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you about that. Well, simply, a planet is just the world we live in, and as for species, it's another type of sentient creature, for example, those we call beastn here."

"I see... then, does her secret realm lie in another world? And what did she an by 'looking for our clan'?"

"Well, that will be a long story," Rook said.

He then turned his gaze toward MingYue, "Before that, I will tell you my opinion about your offer.

Let's just not mince words; you are looking for a way to assimilate our clan into your sect since you need more people. I am sure you will ask each of us to sign a blood oath, and I don't believe you will keep your hands off our secret technique and cultivation thod.

Even if not from the start, it's only a matter of ti before it happens.

If this is only for a temporary place of living, then the trade is not worth it. But young lady, since you can ask that question before, you should have already suspected sothing.

Don't you realize taking us in ans you will get yourself an enemy?"

"I am not afraid of a new enemy. How could I expand the sect if these kinds of things make stop?"

MingYue wanted to say sothing more, but Rook cut her off. "You are so fast to answer; what you say is right, but our enemy is not a weak one.

Why do you think, even here, I never allow the clan to co out from hiding? That is just how strong they are, and I don't want to take any risks."

MingYue's lips curled into a smile. She didn't feel afraid at all; with her situation now, fighting soone stronger is just a matter of ti. Adding another one is not a problem, and she feels she hit the jackpot.

Not only does this an she can bring her master in, but she also gets more reason to convince them to join the Bai Yue sect.

"I don't mind about that. As for what you say, no need to feel worried.

I will just make them sign an oath to follow the rules and keep their information to themselves; afterward, they will stay in the city area of my secret realm.

Only if they want to join the sect do they need to sign more agreents and give out their own thods," MingYue said.

Then a thought ca to her mind, 'Wait, they also know about blood oaths; why not force the people they help, like that bastard geezer, to sign it?'

anwhile, Lin Fang frowned; she already thought this was a bad idea, giving out their cultivation thod and secret technique. It's not that she minded, but she was sure it would affect how people see them.

"Do you even know our secret technique?"

"I heard so rumors. A corpse puppet?"

Lin Fang's eyes turned sharp. "They are not puppets but family. They may only be bodies, but they are always there to protect !"

"Lin," Rook called her na, reminding her.

MingYue was confused by her answer since it was not related to her question. Realizing her outburst, Lin Fang sighed, "I am sorry, I need so air. Excuse , Ancestor."

She then left them both, exiting the chamber.

"Don't bla Lin. Our clan is really cursed.

What you say is right; we use corpse puppets, but it's not always like this. That technique and weapon ca from desperation."

"What do you an, Rook?"

Rook sighed. He took the cup of wine and poured it again into his bony mouth. "Fuck, it's really hard to get out of my habit."

"As I said, it ca from desperation. Our clan's real power is not using those weapons or corpses; in the past, we were summoners, with our unique ability to make a pact with spirits, creatures from another dinsion."
