Chapter 631: Chapter 630: Reincarnation in Dreams

Capital City, 301 Hospital morgue.

Yusuf Zuck stood barefoot in front of an ice-cold corpse, wearing only a long robe.

This was Ariel Higgins. The bloodstains on her face had been wiped clean; her appearance had been carefully arranged by someone. She lay there quietly, like an eternal, unchanging pearl.

Yusuf Zuck had never thought Ariel Higgins would die, let alone in this way.

He gently knelt down, cradled her head in his arms, and began to sob deeply.

She said she liked to steal, but in fact, she did not. She just wanted to tell Yusuf Zuck that she would not interfere in his complex world of affection. She posed no threat to anyone, nor did she seek to influence anyone.

Their relationship was that of friends, lovers, and, even beyond lovers, soulmates deeply connected at the heart.

She was a woman of great wisdom and generosity of spirit.

In Yusuf Zuck’s team, all the men held Ariel Higgins in the highest regard, giving her a thumbs-up.

But now, she could no longer stand; she lay here in silence, an ice-cold individual. Apart from herself and these friends, there seemed to be no family present to see her off.

Yusuf Zuck cried, feeling aggrieved and saddened for her. He wished he could tell her, "You are my woman; I won’t allow you to die!"

But... but Yusuf Zuck was not a god; he wasn’t omnipotent. When a person died, he too was helpless to save them.

A rush of people hurried through the corridor, including Devin King, and even Ember Vance followed behind him!

The so-called special organization Ember Vance belonged to had been placed under Dragon Gate by Devin King.

Ember Vance caught sight of Yusuf Zuck, saw him holding a dead woman and crying, and also saw another beautiful woman sitting paralyzed in the room, weeping...

Ember Vance felt the world spin; she had no idea what had happened.

"Yusuf Zuck..." Fleur Carson also stood in the room and began to speak, his voice stern, "The forensic doctor responsible for examining Ariel Higgins’ body said that she was pregnant, not even a month. Perhaps Ariel Higgins herself didn’t know, or maybe she did!"

"What?" Hearing Fleur Carson’s words, everyone, including Ruth Wilcox, was shocked!

Yusuf Zuck’s body began to shake violently. Pregnant? It had to be his child.

"Hmm..." Yusuf Zuck suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, then a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

"Yusuf Zuck..." Ruth Wilcox, frightened, immediately crawled to Yusuf Zuck’s side and held him tight.

"Ruth, I want to kill someone..." Yusuf Zuck’s entire body trembled. In this moment, he wanted to destroy everything, annihilate everything.

"I know, I know. I’ll join you in killing, I’ll be with you..." Ruth Wilcox cried incessantly, afraid that Yusuf Zuck’s heart was wounded, afraid he would lose hope, afraid he would lose his mind.

"For this vendetta, we share the same sky no longer!" Yusuf Zuck suddenly stood up stubbornly, bent down, and kissed Ariel Higgins on the face, murmuring, "In the dreams of reincarnation, in the next life, I shall not fail you!" With that, he turned and strode away.

A group of people followed Yusuf Zuck out, but Fleur Carson did not leave; he still had to take care of cremating Ariel Higgins’ body.

He also walked up to Ariel Higgins, then bowed deeply and said softly, "Don’t worry, I will watch over him for you, take care of him."

...

Yusuf Zuck stepped out of the hospital building, and Devin King immediately jogged to his side.

Without a question from Yusuf Zuck, Devin King spoke up, "About eight days ago, the previously quiet Dragon Gate Passage suddenly shook and then, three middle-aged cultivators—two men and a woman—burst out, killed three soldiers, grabbed someone to inquire about your whereabouts, and in less than three hours, flew to the capital city!"

"They all could fly, faster than airplanes, with immense and vast energy, claiming they were looking for you as soon as they arrived!"

"Upon reaching the capital, they detected demonic energy, so they inexplicably went to Weng Quan Villa first, killed four from the Blood Race there, and seemed interested in Paisley Kirk, saying she had some ’Thousand Yin Extreme Body,’ so the female cultivator captured little Paisley."

"At that moment, Ariel Higgins jumped out to save little Paisley, and with one move, the female cultivator killed her. Miles O’brien fainted on the spot out of fear."

"Later, when they learned that little Paisley was your woman, they didn’t release her nor kill her but split into three groups to search for you across the vast regions north and south of the river, taking more than two days. Rumor has it they searched the entire land of Huaxia, but they didn’t find a trace of you. Then they turned to search abroad, yet still, they found nothing!"

"They must have had a time limit, so once the three-day deadline came, they immediately took little Paisley to the Dragon Gate, waited at the Dragon Gate Passage for about half an hour, and as the passage opened again, they entered, and afterward, the passage closed!"

"Because the three were so powerful, I couldn’t find out which sect they belonged to, but I did manage to learn the female cultivator’s name."

"The female cultivator is called ’Luna Wolfe.’ Beyond that, we know nothing more; her Cultivation Level is ’Golden Core.’ That’s all there is, Yusuf Zuck. I want to help you, but there’s little I can do. Those three are too formidable, coming and going freely like deities, truly terrifying!"

"The passage is closed?" Yusuf Zuck asked in a grave voice.

"Closed, back to its original state. We’re currently using sophisticated equipment to detect it, looking for a way to open it from our side. I know you will definitely enter it, so I am helping you with that," said Devin King, nodding earnestly.

"Thank you. But what’s the deal with Ember Vance?" Yusuf Zuck glanced back; Ember Vance and some other Dragon Team members were standing at a distance, not daring to come closer.

"Well... it’s because we’re short-staffed right now. Ember Vance is a promising recruit, and we wanted to train her up. She’s now in the intelligence department!"

"Then have her dismissed. She is my woman; she doesn’t need to join you!"

"I don’t make that call, you know. Shouldn’t you ask her whether she agrees or not?" Devin King said awkwardly.

"Then call her over, and give me a smoke." It had been a long time since Yusuf Zuck smoked, because when he was with Ruth Wilcox, she disliked the smell of cigarettes, so Yusuf Zuck had none in his pocket.

Devin King passed a pack of cigarettes and gestured to Ember Vance in the distance.

Ember Vance ran over and snapped to attention, "Commander, your orders?" She was meticulous, looking straight ahead without a glance aside.

"You know this man, Yusuf Zuck, our team leader. From now on, you take orders from him," Devin King quickly pronounced Yusuf Zuck as the team leader.

Ember Vance’s mouth fell open slightly in utter disbelief.

"Ember Vance, from now on, you follow me. Wherever I go, you go. I’m not any team leader, but I am your man. I was in the past, maybe not now, but I will be in the future. I’ve just lost a woman, so I don’t want to lie to you, nor say anything else. It doesn’t matter whether you accept me, but you... you are mine."

Ember Vance listened, obviously stunned, but said nothing. She could feel the man standing in front of her, the man she had once slept with, who had saved her life, was overwhelmingly sad. He was sorrowful to the point of death, so she didn’t argue with him but instead lowered her gaze to look at Yusuf Zuck’s feet.

After a moment of thought, she took off her coat and placed it at Yusuf Zuck’s feet, "Step on it, the ground is cold!"
