I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 708

Chapter 757: 14.33 Last Violet Star – The Devil of Greed

A stampede of monsters came out of the mounds and everyone pulled out their weapons to kill as many monsters as they could. Flashes of light made of technique with qi flew all over the place. Each attack from them can kill at least a group of 20 monsters. Only Chun Hongyun-Jun’s attack caused a gap within the monster herd at every attack. This is the difference in strength between stages. Yun Xiajie is the strongest and this result is inevitable.

Sect Master Lu Er complains while fighting, “Ah-ha~ there are too many and most of them are too weak~ can’t we just let the barrier made by Sir Zhi Yang do the work of eliminating trash for us?”

“Stop complaining, Xiao Er. Even if he flies, those me bats would still attack us though,” said Sect Master Yun Huaxia.

Sect Master Bai Qiyin spoke, “Let’s fly. It’s better to face some bats instead of these disgusting and annoying bugs! Ah~ it’s making me puke seeing cockroaches and centipedes this huge!”

He had activated his bloodline and nothing was able to approach him without becoming ice. Bai Qiyin’s special physique was something his senior brother helped him to awaken. In their (White Frozen Water Sect) Bai Lengshui Sect his constitution is the second strongest after Bai Wuan who possesses Extreme Divine Yin Physique.

Sect Master Jin Baihua’s usual antics are in full swing. He was grabbing the corner of Yun Huaxia’s sleeves, acting frightened of the bug-shaped monsters surrounding them.

Bai Jinhua said, “Y-Yun-gege... I-I’m afraid of... B-Bugs~”

.....

Sect Master Yun instantly pulled away his sleeves and went to hug Bai Qiyin. As his other half, the special Physique of his beloved could never harm him.

“Darling, grab me and I’ll carry you up~,” said Yun Huaxia.

Bai Qiyin had his usual grumpy expression on his face but still wrapped his arm around his Dao Companion’s waist. They rode on Yun Huaxia’s sword and flew up into the sky. Crown Prince Hong, Sect Master Lu Er, and Chun Hongyun-Jun also did the same thing and flew above the herds of monsters from the Infernal realm. Seeing that he was ignored, Sect Master Jin almost couldn’t hold back a curse and clicked his tongue.

Tsk!

He mumbled, “Ever since Lu Yi wasn’t healed by me, Yun Huaxia no longer treated me as someone important. Why is everything so different from my past memories? There is no such Divine Doctor in my past life!”

Sect Master Jin Baihua had to pull his sword and rode on it like the rest of the group. Chun Hongyun-Jun erected a barrier to protect the whole group from the bats attacking them. Each bat that touches the barrier made by Yun Xiajie was all cut to pieces by his sword intent. Everyone could only watch the process of monsters turning to ashes each time it touches the black barrier surrounding the whole forest.

Sect Master Lu Er murmured, “Where the hell is that humanoid monster hiding from? I really saw it with my own eyes even drinking the blood of that human he caught.”

“This looks endless. Just how many are there underneath the ground?” said Crown Prince Hong.

Chun Hongyun-Jun who was observing the scene before him suddenly heard his subordinate, Zhi Yang voice in his head.

Zhi Yang: ‘My Lord be careful. The monsters who are going to come out next are at least golden core stage and 3 unknown. 3 monster kings and 3 known ones that might be someone of the devil race.’

Yun Xiajie spoke, “Three king-class monsters with the strength of at least a golden core and the three humanoids with unknown identities. They are coming out. Be careful, especially for the ones that might be people from the Devil Race.”

Everyone turned serious after hearing what Chun Hongyun-Jun had just said. As expected some monsters at the peak foundation establishment stage come out in groups but unlike the ones from before they didn’t run away and surrounded the open area before the opened stone door. They intentionally left a space at the center and were waiting. Waiting for those they served inside to come out.

Sect Master Jin Baihua asked, “What are they doing?”

“They might be welcoming the one who stood above them all. But the sheer number of this foundation establishment strength monsters is almost at hundreds... What is that!?” exclaimed Crown Prince Hong when he saw towering monsters with the shape of a black viper snake, a huge bat, and a cockroach.

Sect Master Lu Er said with an ugly expression on his face.

“These three huge monsters... Are they all in the golden core stage? But these kinds of monsters are considered kings or emperors in their own territory. They wouldn’t just leave their land to go into the world of mortals. Unless...”

“Unless someone had to lead them here. Someone who can lead a king or emperor class of monsters is the devil race and one that is a high rank. Don’t tell me...” said Sect Master Yun.

His word halted when the three humanoid monsters came out of the stone door. The identical-looking monsters didn’t surprise him as that is what they usually look like. Ugly with distorted aesthetics, large horns, claws, and fangs like a mutated beast that becomes a human. But what terrified him is the man at the center.

This man looks very much like a human. By human standards, he can be considered a youngster in the middle of adolescence. His body structure is slender yet his skin is pale white. You can even see the red and blue vessels as if his skin itself was too thin and tender. This young man is wearing expensive robes on him. Black with red dragon patterns but this kind of design can only be worn by kings or princes with identity as heirs to the throne.

His features were naive and innocent, like a lost white rabbit surrounded by wolves. What was surprising was his rare red hair. This is a feature only the lineage of the current emperor possessed. Like Crown Prince Hong Longqing who was looking at this young man with a shocked expression on his face.

Everyone wasn’t blind. They can see the resemblance between Crown Prince Hong and the young man leading the monsters. They can only look at Hong Longqing with a questioning gaze.

Sect Master Yun Huaxia asked, “Your Highness... Is he... Is he someone from your royal family?”

“Impossible. This cannot be true. Longxie had died from illness 5 years ago! H-How... How can he be...!!?” muttered Crown Prince Hong Longqing as he obviously couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

With his trembling hands, he wanders around his robes looking for something. In his panic state, he didn’t even mind messing with his robes and his posture was gone. He pulled out a communication crystal and urgently called for the other owner of the paired crystal.

Once the connection was made the face of the current emperor of the Long Dynasty appeared. It is Emperor Hong Longtian.

{My dear son... Why did you suddenly use the emergency crystal to call Zhen? Is there a problem with Luan City?}

Stuttering, the crown prince spoke, “I-Imperial Father... Erchen (This child) Erchen wanted to ask. Did my younger brother? My fifth younger brother Longxie really died 5 years ago?”

{What are you asking? Didn’t you attend Xie’er’s funeral yourself? You’ve also seen the Imperial doctors fail to cure him that night! What kind of thing are you asking right now? Explain it properly to Zhen!}

“I... The Imperial Father should see for yourself,” said Hong Longqing as he pointed the communication crystal in the direction where the monsters gathered.

Among the various monsters in their different forms, there is a lone figure that looks weak and fragile. As if he was the lone flower among the grasses. As if seeing what they wanted to do, Tanlan looked up and met the eyes of Emperor Hong in the communication crystal.

At the Imperial Palace...

Emperor Hong, who was playing chess with his minister while drinking tea, had broken the jade cup in his hands. Startling the head minister who was with him and looking at him worriedly.

The head minister asked, “Dage, are you okay?”

“E-Erdi! Come over to my side. L-Look. LOOK! T-This young man in the crystal... Does he look like someone to you?” asked Emperor Hong with urgency.

At first, the minister was bewildered by the reaction of the Emperor before him but when he saw the slender young man with red long hair and those weird ruby-like irises which replaced their former golden shade while wearing a royal robe on him, his hand trembled and the jade cup in it fell with a loud crack on the floor. His eyes widened in disbelief as he himself could immediately recognize who that young man was showing at the communication crystal.

He exclaimed, “Fifth Prince!!? No, that cannot be... H-His Highness... The fifth prince d-died five years ago!!!?”

The head minister, like the Emperor, cannot believe what they are seeing. Even if they forgot the face of their wives they would never forget the fifth prince’s face.

After all, the fifth prince Hong Longxie was the most talented among all the princes in the Hong royal family. He was also the first crown prince despite his young age. But unfortunately, he was born sickly and with incurable sickness since birth. Five years ago, his body could no longer hold up, and died at the early age of 18.

Above the Ancestral Mound...

Seeing the reaction of the Human Emperor of the current dynasty. The other sect leaders couldn’t believe that the young man surrounded by the monsters and was treated with great respect was the deceased fifth prince of the royal family.

Sect Master Lu Er commented, “Is he really the fifth prince? But why is he... No, I guess correctly... According to Brother Hei’s information, the vessel of the devil would have a spider lily on the part of their bodies!”

Upon hearing Sect Master Lu’s words Tanlan laughs.

Chuckles~

“Are you talking about this?” said Tanlan as he commanded Gai Yin to lift his long hair showing his nape.

He also slightly loosen his robe to show the skin of his nape down to his shoulder blades. On his pale white skin on his nape is a bright red spider lily tattoo. It was pulsing as if it was alive. Seeing this proof, everyone now believes that this young man before them is the vessel of a high-ranking devil of its race.

Sect Master Bai said with a deep frown and dark face, “The vessel of a high-ranked devil!”

The young man laughed as if he was entertained and said, “Hahaha~ that’s right. This is my lovely vessel. It had the purest bloodline of royalty but since it was born weak it took me years to transform it to my liking~. I look so pretty now right?”

“By the way~ the original owner of this vessel is quite greedy. He wanted almost everything but nothing for himself. He wanted his father to be immune to all poison in case his enemies tried to harm him. He wanted his elder brother to have his current title as the crown prince instead of himself. He also wanted his mother to be resurrected. Then he wanted the death of his other brothers except for his elder brother.”

“I was able to fulfill the first two wishes but the third is impossible even for me. Only the God of Reincarnation who handles the revival of the soul can resurrect someone who died. As for the last wish, he died before I killed off all his brothers. If I remember right~ hmm, did I kill two or three princes? I don’t remember anymore but those guys were quite tasty~ hahaha~”

“Overall~ I’ve completed my side of the contract and this vessel becomes mine~ I heard he is the most beautiful man in this realm after the Eldest Young Lord of the White (Bai) Clan died,” said Tanlan.

Crown Prince Hong Longqing’s face turns uglier as much as the devil speaks. The voice was familiar in his ears but the words were arrogant and cruel. The face is something he hasn’t seen for five years but it was something he wouldn’t forget in all his life. The fifth prince was his only biological brother. A younger brother was born to the same mother.

The late Empress died when she gave birth to Hong Longxie. That’s why Hong Longqing loves and hates this little brother of his. But as if he was cursed, his younger brother was born with a weak body and an incurable illness

Because of this, he can only pity him and no longer hate him. No one knows how devastated he was when his brother died.

Now a devil which he hates the most occupied his younger brother’s body. He almost couldn’t help but explode in anger.

Crown Prince Hong shouted, “Who the hell are you?! Name yourself! You damn devil!!!”

“As my elder brother wishes~ hehe... I am the devil that rules all greed in all three realms. My name is Tanlan.”
