Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 673: One Week Later
The web didn’t stop.
The threads thickened. They ca from behind, from below, from all around her.
Olivia swung her arm, and black fla cut a line through them.
Fsshh!!! Fsshh!!!
Threads burned, but the charred ends did not fall away. They reattached, then moved toward her again.
Seeing the opportunity, Alex signaled Mingyue.
He shoved his warhamr forward and forced white fla into the net.
BOOM!!!
It barely slowed.
His free hand drew a rune in the air, reinforcing the gap he had forced open and holding it in place a mont longer.
Mingyue slamd both palms out.
Purple lotuses blood and detonated one after another, forcing a small opening to widen.
Alex looked at Mingyue. "Now."
Mingyue nodded.
She pressed her palm against the side of Alex’s warhamr head.
Purple frost spread over the white fla.
The fla and frost collided.
BOOM!!!
A single blast erupted.
It punched through the net like a spear and tore open a path.
As the fla and frost t, they reacted and built pressure, then Mingyue’s space control compressed it into a concentrated point and detonated it forward.
Alex grabbed Mingyue’s arm. "Go!"
They shot through the opening.
Olivia saw it. Her eyes widened for the first ti.
"No!"
She tried to tear free.
Black fla erupted again, burning threads off her throat and shoulders.
But the web multiplied.
It wrapped her elbows, pinned her knees, and sealed her mouth.
The threads tightened until her arms could not move.
She was completely sealed inside a cocoon.
"MMMHH!"
Olivia’s muffled roar shook inside it.
The cocoon trembled, black fla flaring under the surface like a storm.
BOOM!!!!
"I won’t let you go!"
Olivia roared as she tried to chase, but her path was blocked.
A huge spider floated there, with all its eyes still closed.
Then Saryx ca from behind.
Alex and Mingyue were already too far away, and the strength of the black hands that had blocked Saryx earlier had weakened.
After breaking through them, Saryx chased her down, this ti with the fortress floating behind him.
"Where are you going?" Saryx snarled. "This ti I will make sure to end you, Representative!"
***
A week had passed since the incident.
It should have been a small event in the vast universe, but sohow it beca a trending topic.
The universe was in turmoil as headline after headline spread.
[Vampire Returns: Karthos Reach Left in Ruins After One-Night Massacre]
[Entire Star System Erased: Witnesses Report Black Fla That Left Nothing]
[Ergency Coalition Ford: Fortress Fleets Mobilize as ’Vampire’ Sightings Surge Across Border Sectors]
"Vampire sightings surging across the border? What is this?" Alex mumbled.
He clicked for more details, but there were no photos.
"It’s not like you’d believe it even with photos. They could easily fake one," Mingyue said as she sat beside him.
They were resting on top of a mountain on a random planet they found near Karthos Reach.
It was still multiple systems away, but it was close enough for them.
They had set up a luxurious camp using items from their storage rings.
"Can you cook so BBQ again, Alex?" Mingyue asked with a smile.
Alex nodded. "Sure."
He took out a BBQ grill, then poured gourt charcoal into it.
It was a special charcoal Alex had made when he was bored.
The smoke it produced gave a clean smoking flavor to the at, and at the sa ti it enhanced the taste and added a light spice.
He ignited the charcoal with a flick of his finger, then started grilling a steak.
"How long are we going to stay here?" Mingyue asked. "I think we might as well check those vampires. If they’re real, we can et up with them."
"Let’s wait another week," Alex said. "We need to confirm Saryx’s situation first, and Lolth too."
He flipped the at as he spoke.
The sll drifted over, making Mingyue’s eyes brighten.
"It’s good that you’re not down anymore," Alex said with a short chuckle.
"It’s been a while," Mingyue said. "And it’s not like it’s my first ti hitting a wall. Next ti we’ll fight better. We just need to get stronger."
Alex nodded.
With the new cultivation thod, they were slowly becoming stronger.
Right now, what they needed was ti.
They did not even need to worry about elixirs. Progenitor essence covered that.
"But what was with that woman? She seed to hate that much. Do you have any idea?" Mingyue asked.
She hoped Alex’s ability could at least give a clue.
She had thought about it for days, but no matter how hard she tried, she was sure she had never t her.
Except when she was Linghua.
Alex shrugged. "Maybe it wasn’t you, Mingyue. What if she has so history with your mother? Didn’t you say she looked similar to you?"
Mingyue frowned. "I doubt she’s strong enough to contend with her. I know she’s a genius, but still..."
Even after all this ti, Mingyue still felt complicated about her mother.
Her harsh treatnt did not disappear with ti.
It left a permanent mark.
"Who knows," Alex said. "It’s just one possibility. But considering my father, I’m sure he’s tied to the Primordials in one way or another. And they were with her."
"The vampires, and your vampire. So complicated. They should all just co out and fight. Why all the underhanded tricks?" Mingyue muttered.
"If they could, they would," Alex said. "But the situation isn’t that simple. They’re too strong, and we still don’t know their goals."
Mingyue walked to the grill and picked up a piece of at, making Alex smile.
When it was only the two of them, Mingyue would drop all restraint and just act how she wanted.
"Is their goal really that important? Whatever it is, I doubt it’s good. Alucard and the other Progenitors will fight them sooner or later," she said.
"Speaking of Progenitors, I don’t think Lolth was in a berserk state at all," Alex said. "She didn’t attack us. She only focused on that Olivia."
"Well... she did," Mingyue said. "She also consud all the living beings inside Karthos Reach. I wonder what her situation is now. Do you think she can really resurrect fully?"
