Chapter 376: 8.101 First Blue Star - Confrontation
Ye Xiajie, despite his nonchalant manner of observing his surroundings, didn"t ignore the fact that a system can materialize a will without permission from the authorities of the Core System. His wife is one of those people who have such authorization but he is sure that they haven"t met that man with amethyst eyes as far as he could remember.
Gui Xiajun had been observing his brother"s state the moment he had arrived. His eyes never left him as he continued to stare at him. Within those black eyes, he shares with his elder brother, emotions of relief and slight joy can be seen but at the same time, there is hesitation in his heart as to whether he must tell his brother what was exchanged to be able to bring him back to life.
"Saozi (sister-in-law) didn"t lie when he told me, he would do anything just to get you back. Though your soul isn"t completely stable yet and quite a few are still missing, your current state right now is the greatest," said Gui Xiajun. "But unfortunately your memories haven"t completely returned."
Ye Xiajie frowned for a moment and said, "Xiajun do you know what happened? My wife isn"t telling me anything."
"It is not that Saozi didn"t want to say it but because of the trauma left behind by that event that he couldn"t prevent his raging emotions from exploding whenever he tries to remember that memory. The G.o.d of Life and Death, Ruler G.o.d Mo Baojun had sealed that past but...
Based on his reaction to your death in this world it seems that the seal on that memory is about to break. Since this is the situation I wish that you complete the requirement for permanent soul marriage as soon as possible." said Gui Xiajun.
Ye Xiajie noticed that his younger brother was vaguely explaining things. He was intentionally avoiding telling him the details of what he wanted to hear. But the Gui Xiajun that he knew would never speak in such a roundabout manner unless there is another reason why he couldn"t do so.
"You could not tell me what truly happened in the past, did you? Did you swear towards heaven?" asked Ye Xiajie.
He saw his younger brother nod his head and say, "To prevent myself from talking about it while playing the role as the spy, I had to make the vow not to tell a thing about what happened in the past." answered Gui Xiajun.
"I"ve angered my wife to come here and you now tell me you can"t say anything about the past! I don"t like being schemed the most you know that!"
"So short-tempered as always. I cannot say it but it doesn"t mean I can show you right? I will give you a copy of my memories. But since it"s my memories it cannot show you everything in one go. It will come one at a time." said Xiajun as he approached his brother and put a hand over his head and pa.s.sed his memories through it.
But during the process of transfer, it was rejected multiple times due to Ye Xiajie"s soul being incomplete. Because of this Gui Xiajun had to break down his memories before sharing them with his brother. Once the memories had been transferred Ye Xiajie had entered a deep sleep. Gui Xiajun had protected him until he woke up.
Not a while later, the two systems appeared in the temple. With Zhi Yang dragging the stunned Zhi Yue with him. It seems they had their conversation together. Gui Xiajun glances at the dumbfounded Zhi Yue beside Zhi Yang and mostly guesses what these two had talked about.
Gui Xiajun spoke, "What did you say to the kid that he was so shocked to death?"
"I just told him the truth. That he is my counterpart and that we were created beings who evolved with ego," answered Zhi Yang.
"Seems the kid wants to reject reality now. Thanks to what you have said," said Gui Xiajun.
"He will process it all soon enough," said Zhi Yang as he glanced at the slumbering man beside this temporary master of his. "How about you? Did you finish your business?" he asked.
Gui Xiajun glanced at his elder brother and said, "Yes. It will be up to him how much he will see. By the way, how"s the Imperial Palace?"
"Don"t ask. The Lord had gone berserk and went to the Palace himself. He secluded the palace in another dimension and tortured those guys until they were begging to be killed. That royal prince from Ye Guei was so frightened that he lost all his dignity that he even crawled and attacked like a dog in front of the Lord. In the end, the lord pulled them all into a Soul Prison where it"s full of Eternal Ice. The greatest weakness of the Ye Guis." storied Zhi Yang.
Gui Xiajun said, "He hated the Ye Gui quite a lot because of father. If not for brother he would have longed to exterminate us. He is the unreasonable G.o.d of Destruction after all."
Zhi Yue rebuked, "It"s only the difference of like and dislike. Anyway, you need to get ready. We must leave this world as soon as possible. If the Lord ended up seeing you, you might end up getting beat up."
"Fine. Let me erect a barrier around the temple first and then we can leave. Don"t forget to dispose of this body, okay?" said Gui Xiajun. Then he lightly kicked the dazed Zhi Yue and said, "Kid protect my big brother for me. You are his system after all."
Zhi Yue noticed that these two men are preparing to leave. His eyes continue to wonder at Zhi Yue who returned to being strict unlike when they"ve met before. Zhi Yue whose memories were returned by his counterpart couldn"t help but grab the other"s sleeves intending to stop him.
"Where... Where are you going, A"Yang?" asked Zhi Yue with an adorable expression. "Can"t you stay with us? Lord Hei is with us after all..."
Guo Xiajun said, "Say your goodbyes. It would take a long time before you can meet each other again. I will create a barrier first." Then he walks away, giving the two some privacy.
Zhi Yang gently pats the latter"s head and says, "Not yet. My mission is not complete yet. When I got what the master wants only then I can return. You should protect your master instead. Don"t cry Yue"er. We will meet each other in the future instead." he kissed Zhi Yue"s cheeks before turning back to his system avatar which is a Sun.
He reluctantly leaves Zhi Yue as he still has the mission to accompany and protect Gui Xiajun until they find the main quarters of the Ye Gui race. Once Gui Xiajun had finished erecting a barrier he left the world as he couldn"t stay any longer in this world. They need to resume their mission and look for a few more Ye Guys hiding in the G.o.d System and report them.
They didn"t know what happened after they left this world.
---
Meanwhile a few hours ago, at the gates of the Imperial Palace. Hei Anjing appeared. He had teleported himself here directly from the Feng Mansion. Ice spreads instantly at every step. But before he could enter the Palace two familiar figures appeared before him. IN their hearts the current appearance of Hei ANjing had shocked them especially Warden Lou who was seeing this Hei Anjing"s G.o.d Form for the first time.
Feng Wu murmured, "This is..."
"What is this appearance? Is this his G.o.d Form? He does look like the Ruler G.o.d Mo Baojun but his hair and eyes color are different..." Thoughts of Drake Izar.
Hei Anjing said with a cold face, "You two are still here? Go to the Ancestral Temple of the Fengs and let those vessels you are using enter rebirth. If I didn"t guess it wrong Ye Xiajie is there meeting with Gui Xiajun. Go to his side and protect him for me"
The two knelt on one knee and bowed their heads, "As you wish Venerable Lord Hei!"
Hei Anjing waves his hand and sends the two out of the Imperial Place. As soon as those two were thrown out an Ice dome enclosed the whole Imperial Palace and the destruction inside had begun. The land cracks while the buildings creak until they slowly turn into a ruin.
The one causing this is none other than the G.o.d of destruction himself. Every time his qi landed on something it breaks down and gets destroyed. This is the real effect of his qi. The ability to ruin everything in his path.
With the Imperial Palace being demolished those who hid inside had shown themselves. Some flew in the sky while the others got out from that broken palace covering their qi to protect them.
"Who the h.e.l.l is crazy to destroy the Imperial Palace in the middle of the mortal"s city!?"
"d.a.m.n! Debris fell on my head. f.u.c.k! Mortal"s bodies are too fragile!"
Ye Tianyu bellowed, "Where the h.e.l.l is that lowly dog Gui Xiajun? Why isn"t he here!?"
"My lord, I remembered that you sent him to the Feng Clan"s temple to use the mortals there to threaten the G.o.d of Destruction."
"I remembered. Who the h.e.l.l is attacking us?"
"This... I think the lord should see him himself."
Those who were flying just now had landed on the ground in panic when they saw that exquisite being whom they"ve only seen from afar. The weakest among them couldn"t help but feel their legs turn into jelly and fall on their knees when those argent orbs landed on their beings and an unknown coldness almost freezes their blood.
This is the G.o.d of Destruction. That cruel immortal who can take the lives of others as long as he deems you a prisoner or enemy. The way he destroyed the worlds for instant death had happened multiple times that most G.o.ds and living beings in Vearth are afraid of him. The others even say that he is the reincarnation of that despised G.o.d of Void.
When Ye Tianyu saw the G.o.d Form of Hei Anjing that caused multiple nightmares to his clan he couldn"t stop his soul"s instinct to run away. But unfortunately inside the ice dome is Hei Anjing"s domain. No one would be able to escape unless he was killed.
Hei Anjing"s murderous aura spreads mingling with the coldness of his deadly domain. Under the restraint of Eternal Ice, they could never escape.
A glint of anger and coldness slips within Hei Anjing"s silver irises. He extended his hand and a certain strength pulled Ye Tianyu to his grip. The latter"s next was caught as if he was some weak animal that can be butchered at any time.
"This Lord had warned your race to never appear before deity!! Or are you stupid enough that you can"t understand human words anymore? Hm~" said Feng Jing as his grip on Emperor Sol"s vessel tightens and the sounds of bones cracking can be heard.
"DIE! YOU LUNATIC!!!" screamed Ye Tianyu.
A simple grip is enough to fracture anyone"s bones. Ye Tianyu used h.e.l.lfire and attacked Hei Anjing. The latter blocks it nonchalantly and the transparent Ice wall that appears in front of him is slightly misted but it wasn"t even able to cause it to melt.
"Too weak~ since you don"t have the purest bloodline of your race thought the h.e.l.lfire is indeed the nemesis of my Eternal Ice, it is still different in accordance with a purity that your bloodline possesses. Your bloodline is weaker than A"Xia..." said Hei Anjing. His ruthless words rendered the proud Ye Tianyu speechless.
Ye Tianyu"s arrogant smile froze when he saw that his strongest attack did not affect the person before him. After Ye Xiajie that traitor had died, he had sat on the successor"s throne as his uncle had chosen him. He is the strongest in their generation after Ye Xiajie died.
That man who they call a traitor was said to be as strong as the murderous G.o.d in front of them. So when he replaced Ye Xiajie, Ye Tianyu though he is stronger than the G.o.d of Destruction. Little did he knows that Ye Mo was bored enough to care for the problems of the clan and pointed out someone to take the useless heir seat. Ye Tianyu just happened to be the lucky one to be chosen during the whims of that old man.
Hei Anjing after breaking the stupid man"s neck and lets go of the latter and wipes the hand he used to touch Ye Tianyu like he had held something dirty in his hands. This Lord was never one to hold back his disgust towards the people he hated.
"Disgusting." This single word is enough to show Hei Anjing"s dislike towards the Ye Gui race.
Ye Tianyu trembled as he cracked back his tilting neck but didn"t dare to meet Hei Anjing"s eyes. His minions were already kowtowing in the G.o.d of Destruction"s presence.
"I wondered how many times had this lord warned you not to touch this Lord"s other half. It seems you guys never learned. Moreover, who would have thought that the Hei Clan would ally themselves with the Ye Guis funny... I don"t understand what you guys are thinking. Is being greedy more important than your life. It seems I have to clean up the Hei after I leave this world." said Hei Anjing.
Hearing this, those who were from the Hei Clan understood what Hei Anjing meant. In the Mo Clan, only Hei Anjing"s elements had mutated and allowed him to control the special element of blood. All living creatures including the G.o.ds and Deities possess blood as their source of life.
This G.o.d of Destruction had full control over life and death more so than his uncle. The blood element allowed him to have control over bloodlines. He can curse a bloodline using the blood as a medium. This is a supreme curse and it is unavoided.
The Hei descendants knew that this monster was not joking when he said that he could uproot them. Even if they were far away or in a different world, they would never be able to escape. That is unless they destroy their fate and remove their bloodlines themselves but doing so means you"ll never be able to cultivate in your whole life. They"ve started begging for their life. They finally remembered the terror this Merciless G.o.d could bring.
