Hearing the decision from Alina, Christ clearly wasn’t holding back anymore.
He imdiately felt his blood stir within him again. A mouthful of blood sprayed out of his mouth. His injuries that had finally been stanched with difficulty burst apart again, and his bandages beca visibly soaked in blood once more.
And he fainted.
"Second master has fainted; second master has fainted!"
"Hurry! Bring him back to his room to rest right now."
"Call for the doctors!"
A group of people shouted in confusion.
Uncle Ming wanted to say sothing, but he hesitated. In the end, he didn’t say anything else.
A group of servants brought Christ away, Uncle Ming followed them.
...
The deathly pale Christ was placed in bed. Because the physician still hadn’t arrived, Uncle Ming was looking at him.
He checked Christ’s pulse to examine the state of his injuries.
Once one reached a certain degree of cultivation, using ki to check another’s injuries was basic knowledge.
But Christ’s entire body went rigid, while Uncle Ming’s expression also changed.
Uncle Ming checked Christ’s body with his ki. Sure enough, he was seriously wounded, there was also a huge flesh wound, the sword ki’s damage had reached the base of his heart.
Even though such an injury wasn’t lethal for a master rank cultivator like Christ, his strength wouldn’t return to its peak for quite so ti.
The physician rushed over soon after, so Ming let go of Christ’s hand then and said,"Second master, please rest well. I will take care of the manor’s business; there is no need for you to worry."
...
anwhile, in the other room, Alina was seated beside Sharky.
"So, what do you think, will he confess his cri or not?" Sharky asked, looking at Alina, although Christ was his brother in one sense, but he was also not his own brother.
Moreover, he didn’t know why, but he feels sothing is weird about Christ.
Sharky always cares about his family more than anything, and his rule of right and wrong.
He has lived in many simulation worlds, but he never broke his rule and promised.
So, even though Christ has cooperated with fiend races, he didn’t care about it more, if he asked for his forgiveness.
Then Sharky will forgive him.
But, the issue is, Sharky didn’t feel any familiar bond from Christ.
It feels like Christ was a different person. A completely different person.
"I don’t know?" Alina replied, she was also confused, from the ti Uncle Ming has appeared with Christ, he feels like a completely different person.
"Whatever, if he asked for forgiveness, I will forgive him, and if not, then he will be punished according to rule," Sharky decided, and didn’t care about it any more.
"What happened with the Imperial Envoys?" He asked her.
"They have already left the Cloudcenter Territory," Alina replied.
"But, I feel, they will co back again, and that ti, big changes will happen."
"Yeah, the Emperor will try to find many excuses to snatch our Cloudcenter Territory," Sharky nodded, he has lived in the Imperial City, so he knows.
Emperor Henry didn’t care about anyone’s opinion, he did the things, as he felt.
"Yeah, I just hope we will stay safe." Alina murmured, while arriving in his embrace.
"Don’t worry, till I am alive, no one gonna harm you," Sharky replied, taking her in his arms.
And soon, their quality ti started.

anwhile, in Christ’s room, he was sitting in bed. His complexion was pale and gloomy.
"What should we do, Uncle Ming, should we confess our cris?" Christ asked, looking at Uncle Ming.
"No, it’s impossible, I don’t think Duke is gonna spare us," Uncle Ming said, he was also shocked by the sudden action of Duke.
"What is the reason for his sudden action? Did Duke found about our secret?" Christ asked, looking at Uncle Ming.
"I don’t know? But, if Duke has found out about it, he has directly taken the action, not waiting for you to confess your cri," Uncle Ming said.
Hearing it, Christ nodded, he knew if Duke had found out about his secret, then he would not have waited till now.
"But, why was he still not dead? Luke has promised us that he will kill the Duke," Christ asked him.
According to the original plan, on the day of Duke’s wedding, he should be dead.
But then, so miracle happened, and he was still alive. And from then, everything is going against them.
Their business with fiend races. Their eting was also discovered. Moreover the Frost Clan was also exposed at the eting.
"We need to ask him, why was the Duke not dead," Uncle Ming nodded with him.
"Ok, after we recover, we need to go there," Christ nodded, he also planned to escape from the Cloudcenter, instead of confessing his cri.

anwhile, Sharky was still trying to think, from all of the lives of Duke Cedric, what is wrong about Christ.
He feels from his intuition that there is sothing wrong about him. But he can’t pinpoint it.
Because from childhood, Christ was not like this. He always hears and does whatever the Duke Cedric says.
But then, suddenly, sothing changed about him.
"What about the other people, did they agree with you," He asked her.
Alina said with a sigh, "There has always been the saying that when people leave, the tea turns cold. That is precisely the situation, as expected."
"According to my observations, even though many of them offered kind words, they were clearly speaking ambiguously. If they were really asked to do sothing for us, only a fourth of them would be willing to make any commitnts."
"If they are not willing to do so, then there is no requirent for them, drive all of them," Sharky said, he knew, from the ti he had given the command of the military to his brother, many people have changed.
Before this, he had never cared about this.
But now, he has big plans, so he doesn’t care about their opinion. If you follow , then it will be good. If you do not follow , then you will not be required.
"Will this be really okay? Afterall, many of them followed you?" Alina asked him.
"I don’t care if it is okay or not, if they have followed before, asked them to follow again, that will be better for them," Sharky replied, without caring about the reaction of his action.
"Okay," Alina nodded with him, then she pointed out, "There is another problem. Judging from today’s circumstances, it seems Uncle Ming and Christ are definitely working together."
"Who is that, Uncle Ming?" Now Sharky asked about him. Because according to the mory of Duke Cedric, there was not any Uncle Ming in his mory.
But here, everyone knows about Uncle Ming.
"Uncle Ming is-" Alina was just going to reply to him, but they heard a knock from outside.
"Who is it?" Sharky and Alina both called out, tacitly agreeing to temporarily pause their conversation.
"Master, we heard that you returned safely. We ca to see you," several charming-sounding won called out from outside.
They are his concubine.
When the won received permission to enter, they quickly opened the door. Three lovely ladies rushed in, striving to outdo each other. They imdiately entered Sharky’s embrace when they ca in, sobbing as they spoke of their yearning for him.
Sharky was not able to stop them, and soon another battle happened in the bed.
---
anwhile, Christ and Uncle Ming were planning sothing big.
"Uncle Ming, was it really good for us to go this ti?" Christ asked, looking at his Uncle Ming.
"Did you want to confess your cri?" Uncle Ming asked him.
Hearing it, Christ beca silent, he also didn’t want to confess his cri, he was also angry at Luke Vale, that he didn’t kill the Duke Cedric.

That evening, Sharky was starting to have a huge headache. Sara had co looking for him again, and he really couldn’t resist those large and misty eyes. Objectively speaking, no man could refuse such a thing, so he accepted it.
While he was distracted, a knock suddenly ca from outside.
"Who is it?" he called out.
"," ca the reply. The voice was gentle and sweet-sounding, like a willow tree swaying in spring winds, and like sweet and glistening honey.
Sharky quickly opened the door.
Alina was standing outside, wearing a white cloak. The shaggy snow-white cape around her neck added an air of loveliness to her usual noble and elegant deanor. "I have great news," she said, smiling when she saw his expression.
She went inside and casually closed the door behind her. At the sa ti, she blew into her palms, as if doing so would bring her a bit more warmth.
"What news do you have?" He asked her.
"Uncle Ming and Christ have gone sowhere." Alina replied to him.
"So, why was it great news?" Sharky asked her.
"Because, we can follow them, and find what they are hiding," Alina replied.
Hearing it, Sharky nodded."That’s good then."
"Should we get so n to chase after them?" Sharky suggested.
"It is too late for that. Once they get in contact with their partners, they will already be gone." Alina shook her head. She continued, "Furthermore, their cultivation levels are so high, it would be easy to startle them. If they knew our objective, they would be on guard the next ti around."
"Let’s go, then." Sharky nodded with her.
Thus, the two of them quickly chased after Christ and Uncle Ming.
It wasn’t too convenient for Alina to move with the cloak on, and it would make her easy to recognize. As such, she left the cloak in Sharky’s room. Her outfit resembled both a dress and a coat, and yet was neither.
However, even though the cold had made her wear more layers, it still couldn’t conceal her impressive figure.That was especially true when it ca to her incredible waist, her voluptuous chest, and her full bottom. Her curves looked almost like a work of art.
Back at the manor, Sara’s chest had already been quite large, and Rosy’s waist was slender, while Mary had well-proportioned legs. All of them were top-level beauties, and they had their respective outstanding traits. But not even the three of them combined together could compare to Alina. They didn’t have her natural charm and grace.
No wonder Cloudcenter Duke had never been able to forget about Alina.
Sharky actually understood that well. Even a monk trained in self-discipline might leave his monastic life if he t a stunning beauty like Alina, let alone a re gentleman.
The pair cautiously left the Duke Manor. Sharky followed Christ and Uncle Ming using the little creatures’ eyes.
After several turns, Alina finally saw Christ and Uncle Ming.
A cold wind brushed past just then, making her shiver. She had always feared the cold to begin with. Now that she was rushing through the snow without her coat, not even the Warm Darlings she was wearing were enough.
A pair of large, warm hands clasped Alina’s hand, startling her. Because of her beauty, she was constantly surrounded by all sorts of n. She was exceptionally sensitive about protecting herself and subconsciously tried to pull her hand back; but knowing it was her husband.
And, warm heat entered through her palm. And knowing Sharky had done so to keep her warm. She looked at him with love gazes. Her cheeks reddened as she quietly said, "Thank you."
"Your constitution wasn’t suited to this cold weather to begin with. Why don’t you just go back? I’ll chase them on my own," Sharky said. Even though he didn’t know why Alina was so terrible with cold weather, this was a snowstorm they were traveling through. She definitely couldn’t feel good at the mont.
Alina shook her head and replied, "I want to personally witness what they are hiding, or else it will be hard for to be at peace."
"Okay," Sharky nodded, he knew he couldn’t stop the curious won. When they beco curious, they don’t stop until their curiosity is satisfied.
"Do not worry; I am a cultivator after all. Even though I fear the cold, this bit of snow is still tolerable." Alina moved her scattered hair behind her ear and showed Sharky a bright and beautiful smile. Seeing as she had already made her decision, Sharky didn’t try to dissuade her any further.
The two followed Christ and Uncle Ming from a good distance behind. They left the city and entered the Great Snowy Mountains’ wilderness.
