Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Chapter 542 Flower from Dragari's World

Kane wanted to speak further, but hearing these words, Luca cut him off, asking him to rescue Emily.

She felt worried, as Emily was out there alone with such an evil soul.

Kane used one of the formation's functions to look around.

That was when she saw Emily fighting with the Silver Snake Emperor.

The scene horrified her, making Luca ask them for a way to Emily's location.

But the journey would be dangerous, as they couldn't create a path through the red fog.

This was when Sarah volunteered to help.

Her ability allowed her to merge with the Earth.

This meant they could avoid the red fog and go toward Emily's location.

Sarah's mother declined the idea.

It was too risky and dangerous.

But Sarah insisted, saying the location was close by and urgent.

"But last time…"

"Last time is proof I can escape, Mom.

Just let me go, or are you gonna let her die?"

With those words, Sarah's mom reluctantly agreed.

Kane sighed helplessly.

Unlike them, who were quite content with their current life, Sarah was not.

She didn't have any friends her age, growing up alone in this isolated place.

She always looked for a way to escape but never found it.

Despite the danger, Sarah never gave up.

Back to the present.

Kane and his wife were waiting in front of the house with concerned looks.

The moment they arrived, Sarah's mother quickly pulled her away inside the house.

Kane just let out a sigh.

He knew his wife would nag Sarah again for a long time.

Afterward, she would sulk, and they would have a cold war for a while.

He had already resigned himself to the situation, but now it was different.

Not only did they have a guest, but there was also a freaking Beast Emperor in their place.

"Sorry for what, you, Luca."

His eyes then turned warm. "Emily, it's been a while."

"Are you Uncle Kane?"

Emily was in disbelief.

She had seen Silva, who barely had any changes. If anything, he had a stronger presence than before.

"Yes, let's talk inside. And Emily, I am glad you are alright.

My heart almost gave out seeing you cut in half."

Emily gulped, her back drenched with cold sweat.

She had brushed with death many times but never like this.

In fact, Emily thought she was already dead when that happened.

'This should be thanks to the rune Brother gave to me; otherwise, there is no way I could survive.'

She started thinking about Alex as they entered the house.

Luca then gave a gist of what happened to Emily while Sarah and Kane's wife were nowhere to be seen.

"I see… So that happened.

But to think you, of all people, got married, Uncle Kane."

Kane just replied with a chuckle.

"When you lose something, you gain something." He said while looking at a picture hanging on the wall.

It showed a picture of his current family.

"Now that you know the situation, Emily, can you tell me how you survived?"

Luca still felt concerned.

She still remembered what happened with Alex.

Emily looked at Kane and then said, "It's Brother's Rune, Mom, but he did say not to tell anyone about it."

"Don't worry; I will keep my mouth shut, Emily.

Not that it matters in my situation now.

I know my life is not long."

"Uncle Kane, you are a cultivator; why not just take someone's body and recultivate?"

Kane's eyes glinted coldly.

"First of all, we don't have any other bodies we can use here, and secondly, I would prefer death to do something like that."

While Kane and Emily exchanged words, Luca was deep in her own thoughts.

'A rune? I thought this only enhanced our strength and regeneration, but I also thought it could heal that kind of fatal attack.

If I knew this, I would have gone for more.'

A dangerous idea started forming in Luca's mind.

With her sharp weapon, if she sacrificed a fatal attack in exchange for putting one on herself, the odds would be in her favor.

She never did this because what use is it if she dies afterward?

Even if she could take over another body and recultivate, the thought felt distasteful.

She agreed with Kane that taking over someone's body should not be done.

Meanwhile, Emily tries to convince Kane to do it when they come outside.

They could look for a fresh corpse or even clone a new body when they returned to their world.

"Forget it, Emily; getting out of here is not that easy.

There is a reason we never gamble, even with Sarah's ability.

First, my condition is that she can bring her mom outside, but I cannot.

I won't survive long underground.

Secondly, the danger.

Thankfully, you were safe when returning here, but Sarah was ambushed once.

She almost died."

"Kane, do you have any idea about our enemy?

That weird snake creature."

Luca asked, already making a decision to return and finish him.

"That should be the Silver Snake Beast Emperor.

I have some information on him—cruel, sly, and a big fat liar.

On top of that, he is an immortal, a very strong one.

You should avoid fighting against him, Luca.

Just let him be…

Maybe he is the solution for us to leave this place."

"Uncle Kane, in that case, why not just destroy this artifact?

Won't that allow us to escape?"

"The artifact itself is located outside, and although we call it one, that thing is not really an artifact; it's more accurate to call it a living being."

Emily tilted her head in confusion.

"A living being?"

"It's a flower that came from a monster in the Daragari world.

We call this monster a Behemoth there.

Edward did some experiments on it, making it mutate and causing some destruction in their kingdom.

This flower grew from the seed that was left with us."

"Does this flower have sentience? Or can it grow back into a monster?"
