Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 373: Invitation

"Can you arrange a private eting with him now? I doubt we will have the chance after the competition."

"You want to kill him?"

"I don't have the confidence, but soone coming from another cannot just be left to his own device."

"Let think of a way," Situ Chen replied. His eyes then darted around the area. He also contacted his people to gather information on Alex.

He then stopped as he saw Rexar walking out from the crowd. 'Isn't that the guard assigned to Alex? He should know sothing more.'

Situ Chen then disappeared from where he stood, stealthily following Rexar.

Rexar was oblivious to this. He didn't even feel Situ Chen's presence. Right now, his mind was full of what he could do with his newfound wealth.

Buying so protection talismans for his family, a new ho and land, and so shops. His feet were light as he imagined this future.

"Rexar," suddenly, a female voice called out from behind.

Rexar was familiar with her voice. "We won, can you imagine it? Now, our family will not have much to worry about in life."

"Yes, but why are you not calling ?" the woman asked with suspicion in her eyes.

"Don't worry. Sir Alex gave both of us the opportunity. I will not take your wealth. I just think you are still busy with your job."

"Ms. Reina gave a week's break yesterday, so I have a lot of free ti."

Rexar was confused; a maid getting a one-week break was not normal. However, he quickly forgot about this, as his focus was on their newfound wealth.

At the exchange booth, the attendant there looked at them with suspicion. "Both of you are cheating, right? You already knew their strength from the start."

"Since when is that cheating? You are welco to report this to the patriarch," Rexar said with a glare.

The woman then put her hand forward, "Just give us our winnings, and we will give you so tips. Keep yapping, and we will give you our fist."

The attendant frowned; he recognized her as Reina's favorite maid. If she really punched him here, he was sure there was nothing he could say to complain.

With reluctance, he put the storage ring on her palm.

"Check it," Rexar said while he started facing reality.

Winning a lot of money would not only turn his life around, but it also ant he would beco a target of people's resentnt and jealousy.

He started thinking of so asures he needed to take to protect his family. His cultivation was limited, and even though he worked for the Midnight clan, he doubted he could depend on them for every minor issue.

Things he faced would be dangerous for him, but in front of the clan's eyes, it would just be a minor inconvenience. As for his fellow guards, he thought it was better for them not to know anything.

After all, even though he couldn't know in detail what they thought, he could guess they would get jealous, thinking how lucky he was. If they were the ones taking his post, the result would be the sa.

His lucky fortune ca from being in the right place at the right ti.

As he thought of this, Rexar and the woman made their way back toward the arena, and he split the money accordingly.

"Let's split ways here; I want to enjoy my vacation."

"Alright, here, take your part. Have fun."

"I will. Anyway, you be careful, Rexar. Things are not stable now. That spice water is bringing more trouble than we think."

"Don't worry, I am with Sir Alex and Elder Moria. It will be safe."

They exchanged so more words, then said goodbye to each other. As he continued on his way, a voice called out.

"Rexar, right?"

Rexar frowned, then turned toward the voice that ca from an alleyway. A strong cultivator was standing there. As they locked eyes, the cultivator started sending out qi, pressing down into his body.

Rexar looked around, but no one seed to realize his predicant.

With the amount of qi pressing at him, he knew the man could kill him anyti.

"Senior, I am just passing by. What can I help you with?"

"Follow ," Situ Chen said coldly, then turned around deeper into the alleyway.

Rexar didn't have a choice, his mind racing with worry about why the cultivator was looking for him. If the reason was wealth, he would not believe it.

Even his current wealth would be peanuts for a cultivator at his level.

After they entered deeper Situ, Chen threw a sphere-like object into the air. It released qi particles that obscured the area, making sure no one would eavesdrop on their conversation.

Cold sweat dripped from his forehead. Rexar then tried to be as polite as possible. He knew better than to antagonize soone who had a hold over his life.

"Alex, bring him here," the man commanded.

"What? Why?" Rexar asked.

He was his benefactor; if possible, Rexar didn't want to do sothing detrintal to Alex, but now his life was at risk.

At the very least, he wanted to make sure of the reason behind his invitation.

Situ Chen thought for a mont, then took out a plate with a dragon and phoenix symbol.

"Soone from the frontline wants to talk with him. You should understand what this plate ans."

Situ Chen then infused his qi, making the jade glow. The symbol started changing like it was alive, a roar of a dragon and phoenix cry coming out like a symphony of lody.

A unique code that marked this badge was genuine.

The conflicting emotions Rexar felt quickly dissipated. "Is it the guardian? Or...?"

"You don't need to know more. Just do what I tell you. Bring Alex to Roaring Dragon restaurant. They opened a small stall near the arena.

I will wait there. You have five minutes. Otherwise, prepare to pay the consequences," Situ Chen said. He then disappeared from where he stood.
