Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

If what LinHua said was true, that the puppets were made using human corpses, many cultivators would brand them as evil cultivators without even making sure of the reason why.

They will do it to get justification to pillage their clan for technique and treasure.

Time passed on. Two figures landed near them. MingYue's heart tugged at seeing the familiar figure.

The hooded one returned to Xue Fang's side while Lian Fang looked at MingYue, scrutinizing her appearance.

Her niece had told her a person came claiming she was her student and even had something that only MingYue should have.

This made Lian Fang feel intrigued.

Before returning to her hometown, she had gone to the secret realm area, but as she expected, the place was already closed. She then went to Daying City and spent her time and effort looking for MingYue's trails, but she could not find any.

Her search brought Lian Fang close to her hometown.

At first, she just wanted to have a short visit, but after finding out her family was now having a conflict with the Yang Clan, she decided to stay and help them.

The person in front of her now was clearly a stranger, but she could feel something familiar about her.

'Just who is she? I have never felt her qi before, nor does her appearance seem familiar; is it a disguise?'

MingYue's eyes, meanwhile, started to moisten; she didn't understand the reason why.

A lot of emotions started surfacing in her mind. Seeing her master reminded her of the time before she found out about her family's betrayal.

She took her mask off, showing her face. The next thing she knew, something warm enveloped her.

MingYue could have dodged it if she wanted, but she didn't since she also wanted it.

Lian Fang embraced her tightly and then patted her on the head, "Ming Yue, is this really you?" she asked in disbelief.

"Yes, it's me, master; it's a long story. Should we talk somewhere else?"

Lian Fang released her embrace and looked at her niece, "High Priest, can I bring her to the village?"

"Can't you just call me by my name?" Xue Fang asked in a dejected tone, then added, "Since Aunt vouched for her, sure, you can bring her, but try to avoid the other villages; you should understand the situation."

They then started moving toward the village. Since Lian Fang didn't want to make a commotion, she chose another path toward the village and chose a house prepared in the outskirts area.

Usually, this house was made for patrol guards to take a break. But with LianFang's words, the place emptied.

She then left both of them alone.

"Master, I am glad you are alright."

"What are you talking about? It should be me asking, just what happened with you? Even your life tablet is destroyed," Xue Fang said with quivering lips, then took a deep breath before continuing, "You really gave me a jump scare; if not for the sphere I gifted you, I would also completely lose hope."

"The sphere?" MingYue asked as she took it out in her hand once more.

"That is a specially made weapon in our family; we name it Asura Fury Lotus. Only a limited amount is available; I don't know how, but the predecessor put many methods on it; we can find out if any single one of them was used.

I know you, MingYue, there is no way you would die without having a fight. So, there is no way you died without using what I gifted you."

MingYue felt warm in her heart hearing this; she never thought much, but to think the item her master gave her was something precious.

It's clear the amount is very limited and could not be made again; a thought also surfaced in her mind, 'should I send this to Alex for him to try to replicate it?'

But she quickly shook the idea since the sphere held sentimental value for her.

"Unfortunately, master, the situation from before wouldn't let me use it," MingYue said with a sigh. She didn't give out details of the system, but she told her master what happened.

"I knew it! That bitch had something to do with this. I will make her pay."

"No need, master. I already took my revenge, although things didn't really go as I wanted."

XueFang could see from MingYue's expression that she was serious, so she didn't bring up the topic again.

MingYue, meanwhile, looked around the place; the place had simple architecture as it was completely made of wood.

The furnishing was also very simple, with a few formation arrays put inside; based on what Vesa told her, the arrays worked as something like a radar or communication device.

Seeing the setup made her realize how much edge she has compared to this type of clan with modern tools.

Even though cultivators could communicate with telepathy, the range is limited depending on their cultivation level; even for people like her in the golden core cultivation realm, she still cannot beat the effectiveness of radio communication devices in many situations.

MingYue then remembered Lian Fang's words before.

"Master, why are you calling her high priest? Isn't she your niece?

Also, what is the conflict with the Yang Clan? Do they come here specifically for your family?"

"Lian Fang is indeed my niece, but her life is a sad one. I call her high priestess since she was the leader of our clan; don't let her appearance fool you. She is far older than you."

"What?" MingYue frowned. She really looked like a child, no matter what perspective she used. Even using Vesa, her life force checked out as someone young that reached that realm.

"I think I don't need to hide this anymore; you should be clear. My family is what people often call an ancient family or ancient clan.

People that have their own unique cultivation method, but honestly, rather than a blessing, it's more of a curse, MingYue."
