Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

The egg in his inner world then began to glow, a weird pattern appearing on its eggshell. MingHao's eyes were glinting in a green hue, making him unwillingly supply the egg with more life force.

But this coincidence meant a lot in the situation; the egg could feel its master's desire. How much MingHao wished to reach his partner's location.

A purplish light suddenly glowed from the egg, piercing through space and appearing outside, making MingHao's body have a purplish hue.

The reality around him started to distort, and in that instant, everything changed.

He appeared right in front of XueFang while she was knocked back from the location.

In that instance, MingHao's instinct flared. He raised his fist and grasped the ghoul's hand, making sure it didn't go further, cutting her head.

He was surprised by the sudden change; he somehow could tell it was because of the egg, but to be teleported right to XueFang's location was something he should feel wary about.

But now was not the time for this. MingHao exerted all his strength, boosted by life energy, to block the ghoul's movement. He then threw a punch right on the ghoul's stomach, sending him flying in the air.

Swosh! BAM!

MingHao then moved quickly, taking XueFang into his embrace while raising one palm toward the ghoul's direction. Even in that one exchange, he could tell the ghoul's strength was not something he could scoff at.

The ghoul was a few realms above him; he didn't clearly know how much, as the ghoul was heavily wounded. He could also tell it was almost like undead and hard to kill based on the creature's appearance.

At the same time, the bullet and the glaive hit the target. As the ghoul shot back, it was met with the bullet in the way, while the glaive flew past through MingHao as it reached the ghoul, piercing it through.

Xue Fang's eyes fluttered open, hearing the sound. She wanted to check what happened, as death didn't come. Looking at MingHao's face made her feel confused, and she wondered if this was an illusion before death.

But after having such intense experiences, this didn't matter to her. In one swift motion, she did something she would never have done and that MingHao had never expected.

Her soft lips pressed against his as she embraced his body tightly. MingHao's mind went blank. He had seen it in movies and had imagined how it felt, but it all blew over since now he knew nothing compared to the real thing.

All his focus and concentration on the fight quickly dispersed. His eyes looked deeply at XueFang's beautiful face, and his desire started to grow.

A desire to make her his. The soft lips intertwined with her intent emotion allowed him to understand many things. But his brain failed to process it all.

As the two people kissed in the middle of the battlefield, the ghoul didn't stand still. His half-destroyed hand came out from the rubble.

MingHao's punch, filled with life energy, gave the ghoul something else—an intense hunger to eat that energy.

The ghoul started exerting his dark energy, raising his regeneration to a new level. He stood up from the rubble, and his hand began pulling out the glaive from his chest while new flesh began to grow.

From the stump on his shoulder, a new bone came out, this time dark in color, followed by vein and flesh.

MingHao, who was still deep in the kiss, couldn't help but recognize this from his peripheral vision.

He wanted to move, pushing Xue Fang out of the way, but it was too late. The ghoul didn't wait for his regeneration to finish before starting his attack.

Even while pulling out the glaive, he already dashed forward. He leaped up, his leg-spinning in a spinning kick motion.

With the position now where XueFang was standing in front of him, she would be the one to get kicked first. And MingHao didn't want that to happen. He spun his body in the direction.

Then BAM! The ghoul's kick hit him right in the back, followed by a cracking sound as his bones were broken. Even Xue Fang, who was protected by him, could feel the impact.

She got pushed backward a single step. Seeing this, MingHao used his qi, pushing her even further. He gritted his teeth through the pain, then raised his elbow toward the ghoul's neck.

But unfortunately, the ghoul had already taken out the glaive.

STAB!

In front of Xue Fang's eyes, still processing everything, the glaive pierced through MingHao's chest. Crimson blood spurted out, painting her face red.

MingHao gripped the glaive, and he started pulling it outward to allow more space for him to move. The ghoul opened his jaw and then bit him right on the neck.

MingHao could feel chunks of his flesh being taken out.

Clarity then began to return to XueFang's eyes. She realized somehow MingHao had appeared and protected her. And the kiss she did was real.

She felt so ashamed that, if possible, she wanted to look for a hole to hide in, but looking at what happened now, Xue Fang's heart shook.

All the confusion in her mind was replaced with only one desire—to protect him. She took out her staff, then leaped forward.

At the same time, she also moved her parents' puppet to pull the ghoul away from MingHao.

But MingHao didn't want her to get involved. He screamed, "Stay away!"

"BUT!"

"NO, but! Believe in me, XueFang."

With those words said, MingHao's qi started gathering out from his body. He planned to use the XueQi family's secret technique to let out a blast from his body.

BOOM! His qi exploded out, creating a spherical explosion that engulfed both him and the ghoul.

If Xue Fang didn't know any better, it would feel like he was committing suicide by self-explosion. But she knew it wasn't true.

As he was the center of the energy, MingHao should not be hurt.
