Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 237: Spar

Beyond this, the man didn't know much. Sovereign has rarely seen this far away from the city.

Their number is few, but he heard all of them were ageless.

Alex then asked if all grassroots looked like him. To this, the man answered yes.

The only exception is Noble; they sotis have mixed features with Sovereign. But only those born with red eyes will be raised as Sovereign.

"What are you doing here, then?"

"I am looking for food for my family, sovereign."

"Did you hunt?"

"Hunt?"

"I an, eat at. Is your diet only fruit and vegetables?" Alex asked.

He want to find out where all the animals were. Or did this place really have none?

"Yes, sovereign. I never eat at. We never break any rules."

"What other rules are there?" MignYue asked.

The man then started listing everything carefully, down to the dot and comma. He didn't suspect them at all.

He just wanted to quickly leave the area and return to his family. The poor elf thought these two sovereigns were just ssing with him.

His heart were filled with fear that they will kill him. 'What would my family do without ?' he thought.

After hearing everything, MingYue excused the man.

She then looked at Alex. There was a lot of information to help them understand the situation.

"We cannot keep going like this. Since the number of sovereigns is small, they could easily find us.

Disguising as nobles or grassroots is also risky.

I suggest we capture two sovereigns and try to bring them under our control. If that's not possible, we should disguise it as them."

With how the Sovereign treat noble and Grassroots, disguising as them will just end up as conflict.

There is no way any of them will stand still when the sovereign act with impunity.

Alex considered their choices. Hearing the elf's story, he had no sympathy for the nobles and sovereigns.

"Let's go sowhere else and confirm the information we got. Even though he isn't lying, it doesn't an everything is accurate."

MingYue thought for a mont, then suggested, "Why not send out Petricia and the other high goblins?

They can gather information. We already know their appearance and conduct."

"That's risky, but you're right. This is probably the best plan," Alex replied.

"And, Alex, we cannot be soft. This place is just like my world—it's dog-eat-dog here.

Just look at the rules; even the animals are monopolized by nobles. When the nobles give orders, the elves can't refuse.

They are nothing more than entertainnt for them," MingYue said.

She was sure the sovereigns here were rotten to the core.

A small group of ageless people doing whatever they wanted for centuries without any external threats, the result is obvious.

They might have different views, but Alex and MingYue agreed on this.

Alex nodded, then pointed to his awecube. "Co out, Petricia, Zargath, Vexgore."

Light shot out, materializing the trio.

"Greetings, King, Queen. What are your orders?" they asked in unison, as they kneel.

Alex handed them bangles for disguise. He then assigned them the mission to infiltrate the village, confirm the information, and give them a few hours before returning.

The bangles ca from Felidaen technology. It didn't face any issues in this space aside from limited ti usage.

The trio then moved out, leaving Alex and MingYue alone.

"Who do you think made this elf?" MingYue asked.

"Probability-wise, they weren't made. Probably, a vampire who escaped here brought them from outside, and they already had slave status at that point," Alex replied.

His biggest concern was how strong the sovereigns were.

From his interrogation, the elves didn't seem to have any special abilities—so just used martial arts.

But Alex didn't believe this was the case.

He was sure so had abilities, but the sovereigns took them as nobles and left the rest as grassroots.

This noble system was likely designed to suppress rebellion. Strong individuals received special treatnt, so they preferred to maintain this system.

'Even their own kind mistreats them. Their anger isn't aid at a specific race—they're focused on class divisions within the elves while they enjoy everything. Those scumbags,' Alex thought.

While he considered the situation, MingYue also thought about their current predicant.

She looked at Alex, her gaze becoming determined. "Alex, let's fight."

Alex's eyes widened, and his ears perked up, all his thoughts dispersed as he focused on MingYue.

Before he could reply, she had already drawn her sword and dashed at him.

Caught by surprise, Alex grabbed his embershift hamr to et the attack head-on.

CLANG!

His hamr collided with her sword, and Alex felt his hand sore from the impact.

"Your posture isn't right, Alex," MingYue said.

"Why do you suddenly want to fight?"

"We don't know what kind of enemy we'll face. It's better for us to spar now to get used to each other's movents.

Trust ; this is the fastest thod. No qi or lifeforce," MingYue replied.

She used her leg as a pivot and spun her body. Her sword deflected the hamr while inching closer to Alex's neck.

Alex ducked in response, and the sword grazed his hair. He knew MingYue was serious; if he hadn't dodged, the sword would've at least cut his skin.

Alex swiped his leg to counterattack, aiming at her ankle.

BAM! His kick t MingYue's as she maneuvered behind him.

Alex recalled a secret technique he had learned. Although he couldn't use qi or lifeforce, he could mimic its movents to train his muscles.

BAM! Clang! Bang!

The hamr and sword clashed repeatedly until they eventually dropped their weapons and fought with fists and kicks.

MingYue did this to correct his form. Despite his dungeon experience, Alex never had real martial arts training.

His mind knew what to do, but his muscles needed conditioning.

Each hit from Mingyue give Alex a lot of pain, so even broke his bone. But with his regenartion this healed quickly.

anwhile, Alex hesitated to strike MingYue in the face, instead targeting her limbs, making his attack very predicatle.

"Alex, take this seriously. Don't play around. No matter the gender, you need to attack with all you've got."
