Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 474 Clue

As for the others, it was a paradise. Food was abundant and delicious. Their work didn't require them to exert much energy. In fact, most of them barely worked during the day. They were just tasked to enjoy everything, then go outside to sell so of the tasty MSG-flavored food, while inviting people to co to the citadel.

In this way, Alex hoped it would act as a deterrent for immortals to wreak havoc. Even though they didn't care about civilians and saw them as just numbers, this didn't an immortals didn't need them.

Without normal people, their clan or sect would not run properly, which would end up giving them a headache.

Even if they didn't have any sentint left, having no force under them would beco a huge hassle. For example, when they needed resources.

The immortals also knew they were facing an external threat. If sothing that big really happened, the clan on the front lines would use it as justification to abandon their duty and attack them.

This would result in breaking the status quo that they enjoy now. No one wanted this to happen.

So far, no immortal clash had occurred, and the Sovereign team hadn't made any reports on their progress.

With their current strength, they should be able to finish off one or two, but Alex knew they were just wasting ti to enjoy their freedom as long as possible.

He then went to the break area and t up with Reina.

In a burst of emotion, Reina ran toward Alex and gave him a hug. Her action made MingYue raise an eyebrow.

"I'll leave you two alone," MingYue said coldly, then turned away.

But she was stopped as Alex gripped her hand, sothing he didn't even know why he did. It was like his hand moved by itself.

MingYue frowned, confused by this. It was sothing the old Alex would do, not the current one. This gave her so thoughts, but she kept them to herself for now.

She decided to stay and took a seat on the couch, while Alex also didn't say anything.

Reina didn't realize this since she was hugging Alex. She vented her frustration; she didn't know why, but she felt safe around Alex.

anwhile, Alex didn't put much thought into her. Just like MingYue, his concern now was why he had done that. This ant sothing—his emotions were not just pushed down, they were there but blocked by sothing, for example, Byakhe's influence.

But it had been done so discreetly that even Vesa and he couldn't find it.

'Since I cannot figure it out, this ans my only choice is to find sothing that can trigger my emotions once more. Sothing shocking enough. But what?'

Finished with her sobbing, Reina moved back. She awkwardly looked at MingYue, but seeing her busy thinking, Reina felt relieved.

She had already talked with MingYue and found out MingYue was Alex's Dao companion.

"Can you tell what happened after I left?"

Alex then split his brain, and while the majority still thought about his emotional problem, a small part of it started narrating what had happened.

Reina's lips curled into a smile as she placed both hands over her chest. "So, all of them are safe. I'm glad."

"Honestly, it's better for you to return there. Just think about what's happening in your clan now."

"What do you an, Alex? Since they've all already revived, they're probably busy recovering."

"Not necessarily. Your father's cultivation is back to the start, and so is everyone else's. The area is also isolated, which ans the map of power has been reset.

People with designs will start their coups, and those with a lot of artifacts to use will be the ones having the edge."

"This…" Reina realized Alex was right. With people like Morgana in her clan, the ungrateful bastards killing their own fathers was not out of the question.

They would do anything to fulfill their greed. The Patriarch logically had the most artifacts, but since cultivation was reset, there weren't many he could use.

"Where is Senior Moria?" Alex asked.

"Oh, about him." Reina then started narrating what happened—how Moria was killed and how his soul was now taking over soone's body. He was in the process of assimilating it.

The body Moria took belonged to a fresh corpse that had recently died. It was quite compatible with him but with one caveat. The body didn't have any cultivation talent, aning Moria would need to cultivate the hard way from the beginning.

It wasn't like he didn't have the option to get a better body with better talent and bloodline. Moria just didn't want to pick those up.

"I see. In that case, you should leave him here. His cultivation is too low to bypass the barrier.

I can give you so gear, but you should go alone."

"I… Before that, Alex, what about my mother? I heard you just ca from the Zephyr clan?"

Alex silently asked MingYue in his mind why she hadn't told Reina about that. But to this, MingYue said it wasn't her story to tell.

Alex didn't retort back. His mind barely focused on the conversation. He told Reina that her mother was with his father now.

He didn't tell all the details, just so parts of it. The fact made Reina both happy and sad.

At the very least, her mother was safer, but she was caught off guard by the fact that her mother was with Alex's father. Wasn't it just too much of a coincidence for her to et Alex?

This realization made her feel she and Alex were fated to et. Reina then gazed at Alex with an affectionate look.

"That should be enough, Reina. You should prepare to return to the Midnight clan. I will give you the required gear to pass through the radiation area."

"Ah, yes, sorry. MingYue."

"What are you waiting for, then? Go!" MingYue ordered coldly.

Reina nodded ekly, then quickly turned around to leave, but Alex called out.
