Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 365: Galen

"Shut your mouth before I pull your tongue," Zhu Zeng said while emanating bloodlust.

But Morgana just laughed with contempt, "You can try if you dare. Doing that will result in ssing up the Coalition plan, not only the Zephyr. I am not stupid, Zhu Zeng."

Zhu Zeng decided to ignore her. His eyes moved from Alex to another person.

This ti his eyes were filled with more alertness, as in his opinion only this man could be a danger to him. It wasn't because of his strength, but how he was behind the whole problem that ShangXi temple now faced in the central region.

The man was Situ Chen, and beside him was a woman wearing a straw hat with a veil.

At first, no one raised an eye as they considered the Situ clan a small clan. They also ca here only with backing from the White Lotus sect, a sect that was considered diocre compared to others. But in just a few months, the Situ clan showed their fangs.

They started attacking all their business, restaurants, inns, and rchant goods—every single one of their main industries was attacked on all fronts.

Other clans and sects didn't care about this, but ShangXi temple was different. It could be said the normal civilians were their real foundation.

It's not like the others could function without normal civilization, but the scale was just very different for them.

Situ clan also purposely targeted only the ShangXi temple while they let others gain benefits from it. This made the situation hard for them.

If it were another clan, they would have already started an all-out war with how much damage they suffered. But ShangXi temple couldn't do that; they needed to care about public opinion. Otherwise, all the effort they put in all these years would amount to nothing.

But this didn't an they would stay silent. ShangXi temple sent out a group of transformation realm cultivators led by a late-stage Mystic Integration stage cultivator.

They expected the Situ clan to be destroyed to the ground. But surprisingly, even without the White Lotus sect's help, they survived without a scratch.

The cultivators they sent went missing without any news. Their life tablets showed them still alive, but no matter what thod they used, they failed to track their location.

ShangXi temple beca passive after this, deciding to find out first how strong the Situ clan was.

"Do you know who invited them?" Zhu Zeng asked.

"Nope, I don't know who, but to invite them could only be done with my father's approval. So, in a way, we can say he is the one doing this. But why? Is their presence here a problem?"

Zhu Zeng didn't reply, his eyes still glued to Situ Chen. Knowing he was just ignoring her, Morgana decided to look at the other competitors.

She acknowledged all of them; they were either the princess's favorite guards or people with talent from outside the clan.

anwhile, Alex had already reached Reina. She was now talking with a tall man. He had a muscular body with black eyes and hair, and his height was the sa as Alex's.

The man looked young, but based on his life force and how Reina acted, he already concluded he was the Midnight Clan patriarch.

"Father, he is Alex, the one who will fight for ."

"Yes, I have heard about him from Moria." The patriarch replied with an amiable smile, then raised his hand for a shake, "My na is Galen. Since you are my daughter's friend, you can just call by na."

"Alex, Sir Galen. It's my pleasure to make your acquaintance."

"No, it's my pleasure seeing my daughter have soone to fight for her."

His eyes then squinted as he continued, "Her last champion was mysteriously poisoned a few weeks ago, and with how close the ti was, I am afraid she cannot find a replacent."

"No worry, sir, it's my honor to fight for your daughter."

Alex and Galen locked eyes for a mont, then he smirked and excused himself.

"You never told your last champion was murdered," Alex said with a frown as he took a seat beside her.

"I am not hiding it; I just thought it would not be a problem for you, Sir Alex."

"I appreciate your faith, but you should have told . So what happened?"

anwhile, Moria throughout all this was standing behind Reina, his eyes alert, making sure no one did anything weird, but in reality right now he was sending his will into his storage ring.

His lips were tightly closed outside, but inside, he wanted to laugh loudly. He was now busy counting the amount of treasure he had in his storage ring.

The spice water interest was more intense than he expected.

At first, he kept selling it for high-grade qi crystals, almost tripling his whole life savings that he had spent on Alex. But then he decided to go with another thod. Moria gathered so of the rchants that he knew worked for rich clans.

Using a new identity, he nad himself SamTheCapitalist. He didn't understand the na's aning, but it ca from Alex, so he just used it as it felt like sothing that ca from God knows where.

The na Sam existed in his world, but Capitalist? It was the first ti he heard about it. He asked Alex what the word ant, but Alex just chuckled, saying it ant good profit.

anwhile, as Moria enjoyed his newfound wealth, Alex was in a serious discussion. Reina's old champion was her friend from the academy. She ca from a prominent family that was backed by a Heavenly Ascension cultivator.

It was a strong status even for the central region, but in front of the Midnight clan and other clans backed by immortals, her background might as well not exist.

"She died after eating a pill; based on the alchemist, it's because of a toxic reaction with lingering effects from other pills she had consud over the years."

"Is that really possible?"
