I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 836 - 836 14.112 Last Violet Star - (Past) Longevity Pill

836 14.112 Last Violet Star – (Past) Longevity Pill

The mood within the Imperial Palace is somber. Because the Imperial Palace suffered more casualties than expected. Despite whatever injuries, the pills that Bai Wuan had given out had kept them alive for a very long time. On the other hand, the Sect alliance’s reinforcement has not resulted in any casualties.

Crown Prince Wen Kang, the primary perpetrator of the mayhem, was detained until the day of his execution. The Crown Prince himself had murdered the Empress and the third prince. The little princess was lucky enough to be alive. Thought had gone into a coma and hadn’t come out of it yet. Although it is unknown how the second princess and her family are currently faring, word reached the palace that they were still alive.

After everything was settled, the Sect Alliance seized the members of the Xie Clan and their allies.

Only the Golden Core cultivator that Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie had killed the rest were all captured.

Meanwhile, Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie had still not returned, but Lu Yi was requested before the Emperor as a representative of the Sect Alliance.

Pissed off, Lu Yi asked, “Have you found those two brats yet?!”

“N-No. Not yet Senior Brother Lu.”

“Arg~ go check the city market, restaurants, and inns. Those two must have gone and eaten after fighting! Bring them over. I need them here before I meet the Human Emperor. They were formally requested to come!” said Lu Yi.

“Y-Yes, Sir!”

.....

It was forced upon certain disciples from the four major sects to search the city for Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie. The aforementioned pair was now enjoying a cup of shaved ice and some candy in a few booths.

“A’Xia, open your mouth Ah~,” said Bai Wuan as he shared his shaved ice with his lover.

Yun Xiajie did as he was told and ate whatever his love offered to him.

“Jing’er, don’t eat too many cold things you haven’t eaten anything for dinner yet,” said the Second Young Master Yun.

Bai Wuan said, “I know that’s why I’m feeding you so you can help me finish it.”

“Okay. This is the last cup. We need to eat dinner after this.”

“Okay~”

While the two were busy eating using a single spoon, some cultivators who were tasked to look for them arrived after finally finding them.

“Junior Brother Bai! Junior Brother Yun! Finally, we found you!”

“Senior Brother Lu says to return to the Imperial Palace.”

“The royal family wishes to meet you both. Please come back with us.”

Bai Wuan said, “Ah? I forgot. I told Uncle Wen I would check on his brother after fighting. Let’s return to the Palace, A’Xia.”

The Second Young Master Yun nods and pays for the food they had ordered. He also gave his sweetheart some treats to munch on the way there.

“Let’s go, Jing’er,” said Yun Xiajie as he held a paper bag of sweets in his hand and reached out another to hold his Dao Companion’s hand.

Just by looking at these scenes, the two appear to be inseparable. These single dogs elder disciples who came to pick them up felt full. They were fed too much dog food, which was forced upon them.

Their group returned to the palace escorting the young couple who were the main characters of the banquet tonight. Before they entered the dining hall, Bai Wuan, Yun Xiajie, and Lu Yi first came to the Main Palace to meet the Old Emperor. Emperor Wen welcomed the esteemed guests with delight and gratitude from his heart.

“Lu Wang from Lu Weifeng Sect pays respect to the Imperial Ruler!”

“Bai Wuan from the Bai Lengshui Sect greets the Human Emperor!”

“Yun Jieye from Lan Zhuayun Sect pay respect to the Human Emperor!”

Thanks to the pill Bai Wuan had given him, the Old Emperor was now able to stand up straight. He and the royal family bowed their heads and expressed their gratitude to the youngsters for their assistance in averting the calamity in their kingdom.

“The Royal Clan of Wen salutes to the Young Disciples of the Four Great Sects. Thank you for saving us!”

Lu Yi said, “Please raise your head. It is our duty to protect the human race. There is no need for such abundant respect.”

“No. Daoist Bai had resolved this old man’s ailments. I was one step behind my grave but was saved by the pill this junior had provided. Young Lord Bai, thank you very much for your generosity!”

“I made a promise to help you wake up. Though the Longevity Pill extends your life, it would be to the extent your body can bear. I still need to check how the pill effects would last for you,” said Bai Wuan.

However, other than Yun Xiajie, the others were completely taken aback when they heard Bai Wuan speak of a fabled drug called Longevity Pill when they were there. This is a forgotten, top-quality ancient vitality pill. It is only found in the Upper Realm and is incredibly uncommon, even in the world of cultivation in the Mortal Realm.

“LONGEVITY PILL!!!”

Lu Yi asked, “Why do you have something like that!?”

Wen Hong, Emperor Wen, and Lu Yi exclaimed in astonishment.

Yun Xiajie asked, “Jing’er where did you get such a pill?”

“Hm~ It can be considered as a family heirloom I guess,” said Bai Wuan.

“From the Bai Clan?”

“Nope. My Paternal Clan. Bai Clan is my Second Aunt’s Family after he married out. I am her youngest nephew,” explained Bai Wuan while smiling.

However, his grin was enough to quell everyone’s curiosity. The soft grin on Bai Wuan’s face may be interpreted as a warning that they must refrain from asking any questions that go beyond what he has already expressed.

The thoughts of Lu Yi, ‘If the Bai Clan is not Bai Wuan’s real family that means the real heir of the Bai Family is Bai Ying. No wonder the Bai Lengshui Sect always deny that A’Wuan was not the heir but his younger brother instead. Is he not from this realm?’

“Jing’er, can you tell me the rest later?” asked Yun Xiajie

A delightful and passionate smile appeared on Bai Wuan’s face and said, “Since A’Xia asked, I can tell you everything. But let’s do it in the room.”

“Okay.”

Lu Yi commented, “Stop flirting will you?”

“Fine~,” said Bai Wuan while obviously having no intention of listening to Lu Yi.

Sigh~

The Emperor and his younger brother watch their interaction with dumbfounded looks.

“This child is really the one who provided you the Pill you made me eat, Xiao Hong.”

“Um. It’s definitely him. His playful nature is also normal. That’s how he really is towards other people. But he is sly as well and... Extremely intelligent. The overall plan that lessened the casualties of both sides was from him. He split the group evenly and prioritized what needed to be solved first. His plan was based on the information I gave him. But I’ve never expected the brother’s eldest son to have such a nature. Because of this, we failed to save my sister-in-law and third nephew,” said Wen Hong as he still couldn’t move on from the death of the Empress and the Third prince.

Emperor Wen said, “I also didn’t expect him to be so greedy for the throne. He didn’t even know that such a seat wasn’t even a good thing. No matter what his sins must be repaid. His execution would be done in public as planned.”

Bai Wuan spoke, “If his Majesty still has some small talks with his highness then I can check on your condition tomorrow morning instead.”

“Oh~ Pardon us. Please go ahead, Daoist Bai,” said Emperor Wen.

After checking the pulse of the old emperor, Bai Wuan diagnosed his current state.

“The Emperor’s body had now stabilized. There is a piece of good news and bad news. Which one do you wish to hear first?” asked Bai Wuan.

The old emperor responded, “The good one first.”

“Your illness has been resolved. Congratulations!” remarked Bai Wuan.

His majesty asked next, “Then the bad news is...”

“Your former illness had long destroyed the balance in your body and the pill couldn’t restore a dying vitality. The Longevity Pill had only snatched 5 years of your original lifespan from your destiny. At most, your majesty can live carefree and free from sickness and diseases for five years. After that, you would enter eternal sleep. But fear, not your death would be peaceful and painless,” explained Bai Wuan.

The old emperor didn’t react negatively to the news. But Wen Hong and the old eunuch found it difficult to accept this information.

Wen Hong asked, “I beg Daoist Bai. Please save my elder brother.”

“Sire, I hope you don’t remember wrong. This little one is only a cultivator and not a God. It was already against the law of the heavens that I’ve extended his life for five years. After all, the old emperor was destined to die today. I’m sorry. I’ve done what I could,” said Bai Wuan.

Wen Hong and Old Eunuch became silent abruptly as they processed the bad news. While the Old Emperor was very well convinced that he had five more years to live, Cao Junya did his utmost to console his sworn brother.

The Old Emperor asked, “Daoist Bai, in those five years I wouldn’t have to suffer any pain anymore. No matter what and how?”

“Yes, the vitality in your body will be at its strongest for five years. You wouldn’t feel pain and any wounds or injuries you would suffer within five years would heal right away. It can be said that you are half-immortal for five years. That’s the effect of the longevity pill on you,” said Bai Wuan.

Emperor Hong said, “Thank you very much, milord. For extending this humble one’s life. I know that the Longevity Pill doesn’t exist in this realm. It only exists in that place...”

“It was a promise. I fulfill all my promises~” said Bai Wuan.

Only the two of them were able to immediately grasp what was being said to each other and decipher the secret meanings contained in the words they used because they communicated in words-between-words.

Emperor Wen spoke, “I hope we can speak about the suggestion you’ve given to my younger brother. About building a Sect affiliated with the Royal Clan, I plan to approve it. Can I ask for the recognition of the four great sects for it?”

“I can represent the Bai Lengshui Sect and will give you my word,” said Bai Wuan.

Yun Xiajie said, “I shall accept for the Lan Zhuayun Sect as well. My authority is the same as my elder brother’s. It was he who gave me such authority.”

“Since these two approve of it, then LU Wang from Lu Weifeng Sect accepts it as well,” said Lu Yi. “As for the Jin Tiangui Sect, I guess you can ask A’Wuan for it too. His younger sister’s fiancé is the next heir of the Jin Tiangui Sect.”

“Well, I can accept it for him. He couldn’t defy my wishes anyway,” said Bai Wuan.

Lu Yi mumbled, “Little Devil.” only to get his foot stomped for the second time by Bai Wuan.

Bai Wuan said, “Since we all agree, you can start building Sect as for the leader you can have this person do it.”

He pointed at Cao Junya who was caught in surprise.

Startled, Cao Junya pointed at himself, “Me? Do you want me to do it? I only know how to fight and gather information.”

“Your brother would have to begin his training and lessons on how to become a good Emperor. He cannot make a Sect while doing all those,” said Lu Yi.

Yun Xijaie says, “You have connections and most of your techniques were learned from your sworn brother. It does not make a difference who would become the Sext leader between you two.”

.....

“If you want them to become both the Sect leaders, it’s not like there is only one person to lead a Sect. It can be two or more depending on how you guys want to make it. But it is better to find the talents in the mortals, rogue cultivators are rare and... The Xie Clan wouldn’t allow a cultivator to join the Imperial unless you train them yourself. Their ancestors are pretty much narrow-minded. Moreover, they wanted to start a war.”

“Create your sect secretly. Lest you get pulled and be involved in the future war within the cultivation world,” said Bai Wuan.

Wen Hong and the Emperor nod their heads in agreement with Bai Wuan’s words. They also knew about the tyranny caused by the Xie Clan and how much they didn’t want to get involved.

“Thank you for your suggestion!”

“We promise not to be involved with the Xie Clan any longer.”
