Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 494 The New Patriach

'There is no way Morgana, that bitch, suddenly had a change of mind. I don't believe she doesn't have ulterior motives.'

The group pointed their weapons and then shot them forward. Morgana and the others did the sa. The clash happened a few tis, but in the end, they were losing.

One of the opponents was the treasury elder. When everyone was resurrected, he was the closest to the vault. Wasting no ti, he took it all and created his own faction.

anwhile, the Patriarch had been resurrected so distance away from the clan. He had to make his way through the edge of the jungle. Thankfully, he had many artifacts on hand; otherwise, he would have already t his doom.

When he returned to the clan, the treasury elder quickly ca for an ambush. Many sacrificed their lives to protect him. Ironically, one of them was Zhu Zheng.

Even though he had been resurrected, his deal with Alex still stood. He had no choice but to protect Reina, including her father.

The fight rose in intensity. Her father's group was now barely surviving inside a protection barrier made from an artifact. It was already cracked all over.

"Just give up, Patriarch. You should have obediently sworn your loyalty to ."

"You traitor! To think even a blood oath is not working!"

"Haha, do you think that will be useful? With everyone on the sa level, breaking the oath is easy. We just need to enhance our qi with artifacts."

Gallen clenched his fist. He still had so promises he needed to keep, but it seed pointless now.

'At least Reina is not here. I hope you can et up with her.'

"Enough chatter, finish them!" the treasury elder ordered with a grin on his face.

Morgana turned her gaze to Gallen. She seed deep in thought, considering her next action. Above, Reina gritted her teeth. She needed to intervene now, or else it wouldn't matter at all.

What use was finding out Morgana's real intention if her father ended up dead?

She appeared in front of Gallen, then slapped the attack to the sky. Her aura spread out, pushing the opponents to their knees.

Morgana's eyes lit up at seeing this. Her lips curved into a smile, like soone who had won a huge bet. She had considered siding with the treasury elder but decided it wasn't worth the risk.

She knew this was all caused by Alex. His strength was sothing she couldn't hope to match. In her thoughts, even if the treasury elder won, it would only be a matter of ti before Alex returned and annexed him.

In that case, it was better to side with the Patriarch. Either she would win and survive for the long term, or enjoy a short term of power and then eventually die.

She had tried looking for other options, like leaving the place, but seeing what had happened to those who tried to run gave her cold feet. In the end, she felt huge relief at seeing Reina's appearance.

'She seems stronger than before,' Morgana thought.

She wasn't afraid Reina would take revenge on her now. With what had just happened, she had proven her loyalty. This would not be enough to get back into her good graces, but at least she would have a hard ti making a move against her.

Morgana also considered their personal traits. They were the type that would return any favors they received. So, her position was safe for now.

"You traitor!" Reina's eyes turned reptilian, flickering with a cold glint.

Her hand turned into a draconic claw, which slashed forward, creating a wind blade.

Screams of pain filled the area, mixed with regret, followed by a rain of blood as their bodies were cut to pieces.

Reina decided to go a step further and show what happened to traitors. She minced their bodies using the wind and then extinguished all their souls.

"Reina! Why are you here?" Gallen asked in a panic. Her appearance caught him off guard. He also didn't see Moria around, making him think sothing bad had happened.

"Let's talk later, Dad. For now, we need to tidy up the clan."

"Yes, you are right, but you see my current strength. Do you think anyone will listen to now?"

Gallen let out a sigh. He raised his voice, filling it with qi to make sure it spread throughout the whole clan. "Starting today, the pPatriarchof the Midnight Clan is Reina, my daughter. All matters will be decided by her."

His announcent surprised everyone who heard it, but for those who saw what happened, they all realized this was the right choice.

Might make right—these words had never been truer. Who could complain if they didn't have the power to back it up? Find more chapters on empire

Most of the traitors had already been killed by Reina's attack. What was left now was only to clean up the leftovers.

anwhile, back at the Bai Yue Sect encampnt, in the nearest place close to Dali City, Zold was standing in front of his father's grave.

He had thought of bringing his body back and having the funeral at ho, but after so thought, he decided against it. He rembered his father had once said to bury his body where he died if possible.

Bringing it ho would just create unnecessary problems and make it harder for those who survived to move on.

"Sis..." Zold mumbled, his eyes burning with determination to find her.

So distance away, MingHao and Xue Fang sat together. YanYu had left with Yun Yun and the others, bringing them back to the Bai Yue Sect to recuperate.

She planned to bring them to MingHao's uncle. Right now, based on seniority, he should be the one with the most power. And based on strength, it was MingYue. So the Xueqi family agreed to go with her.

Many of them had also lost their sect and heard about the invasion from strange monsters. When they learned it had all started with the Bai Yue Sect, they decided they had no other choice.
