Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System
Chapter 160: Aurora

The chariot then started flying again, making its way back to Blaire's mansion. But plans rarely run smoothly.

Blaire, who was going to the palace to report to the king and look for information on the hostages, is now lying on the ground. His eyes look with spite at the woman in front of him.

When he reached the palace, he reported to the king that Alex was there looking to rescue the high councilor's family. The Sentinel already knew everything they planned.

This made the king frown and told him to move the hostage location, as Blaire had predicted. But when he made his way toward the prison, the woman hit him before blocking his path.

She then threatened him to follow her. Not wanting to draw any suspicion, Blaire is forced to accept it.

He knew if he rejected it, the woman would make a scene, drawing unnecessary attention towards him. In his mind, the worst that could happen is the woman beat him again.

Inside the room, the woman asked, "Have you changed your mind yet?

You should know I can give you the antidote for your wife. Is my request really that hard to do?"

"You tell me to leave my wife. How could I agree to that?"

"Hmph, I told you to make her the second one and accept me as your main wife. I never told you to leave her.

You should know the king's order is to kill her. I am the one choosing to poison her."

Blaire didn't believe what she said. If the king planned to keep him around, he would know not to do that. Killing Sasha would make him go feral and throw all caution to the wind.

"If that is the only thing you want to talk about, then we are finished here," Blaire said as he turned his body, planning to leave the room.

But the woman didn't take no for an answer. Bam! She hit him in the stomach. "Let's see if you still think like that if I carry your child."

Hearing the woman's words, Blaire's eyes were filled with spite; he regretted ever helping her.

"You are the king's woman. Do you think he will let me go if that happens?"

"Haha, that trash is hallucinating. Do you think what you see really happened? You've never seen the real me, Blaire," the woman then snapped her finger.

The woman in front of him disappeared, turning into golden dust, while a new woman appeared just inches away from his face.

She had beautiful blue sapphire eyes, while her long hair was iridescent purple. Her face was very beautiful, one that can topple a nation.

If Alex were here, he would quickly link the woman with Freya since they have very similar faces, with only their eyes as the difference.

Her body was a perfect hourglass, and if she stood up, she would have a similar height to Mingyue.

Blaire was mesmerized by her appearance but quickly shook the thought off.

Without even considering what the woman planned for him if he didn't return in time, Alex and the others would conclude something wrong was happening to him.

The whole plan to ambush the king at the auction could be scratched off since there is a possibility that the king already knew about it.

He tried to move but then realized he had lost control over his body.

"Don't worry, Blaire, you will be able to move your body again later. I just paralyzed it momentarily."

"Why are you doing this? I only saved you once in the past, and it wasn't even something big."

The woman's lips curled into a smile. "Call my name, then I will tell you why I am so obsessed with you."

Blaire frowned for a moment but decided to fulfill her wish. "Aurora."

"Good, I will remind you once more no one ever touched me. I am part of the fairy race with very special abilities. I can create a very realistic hallucination, Blaire. And this is not our first meeting."

Her face changed once more into someone who made his eyes widen in surprise. "Impossible! You should have!"

"Have what? Died?" Aurora said with a smile on her face.

Her hand gently caressed Blaire's cheek while her gaze looked at him possessively.

"One of the main reasons I helped my sister is because it will allow me to meet you again.

I am sorry I hurt you many times, but I know you will forgive me for that, won't you, Blaire?"

Her current face made Blaire forget everything.

Old memories resurfaced in his mind, the woman who stayed with him when he was at the lowest point of his life, the woman who took a bullet to protect him.

"Why?" he mumbled.

"Why did I hurt you? Well, I know my sister would make a fuss if she knew the real reason.

So I needed to make her think I hate you so she won't bother when I look for more information about you."

"That's not it. If you are alive, why didn't you look for me?"

Aurora sighed, her face returning to her real one.

"Don't I look for you now? I had no choice, Blaire. There are many things hanging on this.

I decided to come out now since she had already planned to make her move. So my acting is not needed anymore.

I have done everything I need to do. Now It's time for my own desire, I will never let you go again, Blaire."

"I…" Blaire wanted to say something, but nothing came out; everything was too complicated now. He didn't know whose side to take.

He didn't want Sasha to get hurt. If the woman in front of him stayed at his side when life was at its worst, Sasha was the one who pulled him out of the dump.

He then remembered what she said before. "You said the king wants to kill Sasha? Why?"

"The king? He is nothing more than a doll to my sister now. She wants you to flip and start chaos in the country.

It's even better if you attack the palace. If you ask me why? I honestly don't know. She is the one planning everything."
