Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Chapter 173: Denial & Hatred (Bonus Ch)

Using his ability, he quickly estimated that Sasha and Lily could wait, but the one under the rubble, despite the life force being strong, somehow could guess what happened.

The life force belonged to William, but he could not find Roxy's life force, which meant she had died inside the rubble.

Alex touched the rubble and started spreading his qi inside it. Learning the situation, his gaze turned complicated, and with a deep sigh, he started lifting the rubble carefully.

William could feel the air turn fresher, and everything started to turn brighter. The sharp crystal in Roxy's body also started getting pulled out slowly.

BANG!

A loud voice reverberated in the air as Alex threw the rubble toward the man wielding the hammer.

His throw looked random since Alex threw it high in the air, but it dropped directly toward the man's face.

The man gripped his hammer and then hit the debris with a bang, shattering it in the process. On purpose or not, the man took this as a provocative action; he leaped forward, his hammer raised above his head as he aimed to hit Alex.

But a sound reached his ear, making him stop.

A few moments ago, Blaire and Aurora landed near Sasha and Lily. Blaire quickly got close to Sasha and then poured the healing water for her to drink.

It's the same water he used to heal his hand before, given by Aurora. Aurora cast a short glance toward Blaire, then back toward the man with the hammer running toward Alex.

"What do you think you are doing?"

Her appearance was not familiar, but her voice was known to everyone in the elite squad. Aurora asked that question in her original voice.

She snapped her fingers, turning back to her real appearance. This made the squad kneel on one knee, "Greetings, Princess." They said in unison.

"Disperse, continue with your mission. I will take care of the rest," Aurora said coldly.

"Yes, Princess." The squads didn't ask any further questions; they stood up and wanted to leave, but Blaire's words stopped them.

Looking over his shoulder with eyes flickering with rage, he asked, "Who is the one that attacked the chariot?"

He is not dumb, even though he doesn't have Alex's abilities; he could still speculate what happened; the destroyed chariot, the wound on his wife's body, it all tells him how they were attacked.

Aurora sighed; she had already expected this. She knew Blaire's personality; if he had the opportunity to take revenge on those who hurt him or the one he holds dear, he would go for it, except it's too risky. -read-first

For example, when Sasha was poisoned.

She also thinks some part of Blaire would never forgive her for what she did to Sasha, which is one of the reasons she forced herself on him, making sure she carried his child, so he has no choice but to forgive her.

She knew this was manipulative and wrong, but she just couldn't help it; at that time, meeting Sasha for the first time and seeing their wedding picture, her jealousy overcame her rationality.

She barely managed to hold herself back from killing her. In reality, she had other plans not to hurt her but rarely did things go as planned when emotion was involved.

Meanwhile, William was now hugging Roxy's body tightly, his eyes looking at Alex filled with hope. Alex didn't need to hear him say anything to know what he wanted to say.

'Vesa, any ideas?' Alex asked in his mind.

[Impossible, King, if there was still a flicker of life force on her, even a little bit, then there is something that could be done, but now there is nothing we can do. If the old progenitor was here, maybe he could do something since she just died.]

"Why do you think he can do something? Is it possible to resurrect the dead?"

[Not possible, King; those that die will stay dead.]

[Even a progenitor's ability can, at most, recreate a living being, but at that time, they are a new person just having the same memories.]

[I just said it may be possible since there is much knowledge only known to a Progenitor, so maybe there is a way to get her soul back since she just died.]

Alex's face turned solemn; he then shook his head.

The sky might be clear now, casting its warm light toward the area, but for William, it's like the gloomiest sky he has ever seen.

"No… no way… Tell me you are lying… Alex… If you cannot do it, what about the Sentinel? Can't he do something?

Or the fairy race or something outside this place? You come from outside; the universe is so vast there should be a way."

"I won't say I know everything, William, so maybe… Maybe there is a way.

But honestly, many of those will be fake; you might be able to replicate her memories and everything, but are you sure at that point she is still the same Roxy, you know?"

"Roxy.. No.. No.. No!!!!" William screamed from his lungs, his heart filled with pain.

He stood up carefully and laid Roxy on the ground; her body was filled with holes, with her hand still tensed in the same position as before.

William tried to close it, but it was so firm and strong that he could not budge. He then realized the reason for this. Even after her death, she was still there protecting him.

Alex took out a red potion from his storage ring, "Let me at least return her body back to normal."

William nodded while looking at the red liquid inside the bottle.

Alex poured it all over her body; with naked eyes, he could see all the wounds quickly healed. The skin returned to normal as if the wound had never been there.

Anger quickly surfaced in William's heart; he then grabbed Alex's body by his shoulders. If he just had that liquid before, he would have been able to save Roxy.

"YOU! If you just came earlier!!! Why!? Just WHY!?" William screamed as he shook Alex's body.
