I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 894 - 894 14.170 Last Violet Star - Chun Hongyun-Jun and Devil Baoshi

894 14.170 Last Violet Star – Chun Hongyun-Jun and Devil Baoshi

“Seven Deadly Sins?”

“I heard about them while I was still in the Upper Realm. They were all regarded as strong as immortals in their actual forms. They were all created by the King of Devils after he was imprisoned by the Immortal Emperor in his own realm,” Madam Bai explained.

“Can the Human World even overcome them? We for one can’t. We can battle regular high-rank demons but not one of the sins,” said Bai Yuyan. “But the ones to fight these high-ranking devils were heavenly generals from the Heavenly Domain,” he said.

Xia Jieye spoke, “I can defeat six of the seven sins alone. In fact, Jing’er had already killed three of them. The Sins of Greed, Envy, and Lust are all dead. But... I had never even met the Sin of Pride.”

“Is he the devil in the white hood?” asked Bai Yuyan.

Xia Jieye responded, “Might be. I need to see him myself to decide.”

An hour later...

Hei Anjing invited everyone into the house, including Bai Yuyan and Xue Wuyue. Bai Lili was now totally recovered, and her glowing skin had returned. This married pair, Jin Shiyan, and Bai Lili had recovered to normal after receiving medicine and medical attention from Hei Anjing.

“An’er, thank you. I’m delighted you are able to extract Death Qi from someone’s body. Even in the Heavenly Domain, no one was able to do so,” Xue Wuyue remarked as she gave her daughter a big embrace.

.....

“No need for thanks, Aunt. Lili is my younger sister. I had thoroughly removed the death qi in her except for a few days of weakness. She would be fine as long as she rested well.” Hei Anjing said. “Lili, Devils, and demons carry death and resentment qi on them. So if you are going to fight against them make sure to eat an Ice Pill to enhance your physique.”

“Shiyan, you can eat the diluted version as well.”

“Thank you, Brother Wuan (Dear Elder Brother)!” said the couple.

“No need for thanks. You guys are safe now. Yanli had been worried for you two all this time. You go and coax the child. That former courtyard where you guys used to live is still free. I had some disciples clean it up for you.” Hei Anjing said.

He then turned around and looked at Bai Yuyan and Xue Wuyue. Hei Anjing suddenly asked, “Where are Qiqi and Big Brother Yun? Did they not come back with you?”

“They went to the South to check on the Lu Brothers. The Heavenly Soldiers were left with them. Moreover, your second uncle and his dao companion are there too. They should be safe.” Madam Bai said.

Hei Anjing responded, “As long as they are safe.” adding, “On the other side, you guys brought someone unexpected with you.” He then turned to face the black ice needles in his palms.

As they heard what Hei Anjing had just stated, everyone was shocked. What does he convey by stating that they brought someone along? They did only bring the East’s survivors here, did they?

Chun Hongyun-Jun looks at the death qi contained in those ice needles and appears to grasp what his wife is trying to say.

Xia Jieye said, “Do you want me to grab it for you?”

“Sure. Though it is not weird for a Devil to become attached to humans. This is the first time I saw one who is even willing to go to a place that can kill him. The only Devil I’ve met before who was too attached to his vessel is the Devil that rules Lust. He still died under my hands though,” said Hei Anjing.

Xia Jieye said before disappearing, “I will be back soon.”

“Don’t forget my Moon Cakes...”

Everyone was suddenly aware of what the pair had just discussed because their chat wasn’t private. The demon who left the death qi in Bai Lili’s body appears to have been lurking among the survivors as a devil’s vessel.

Jin Baihua exclaimed, “There’s a devil among the survivors!”

“Is it that little maid from before, Dear Elder Brother?” asked Bai Lili.

Hei Anjing crushed the black needles in his hands and said, “We will know once A’Xia comes back. Let me cook lunch for a bit. Please look after the twins for me.”

“Go ahead, An’er.”

Several elders and Lan Zhuayun Sect disciples were tending after a sizable gathering of survivors outside the Western City’s entrance. Certain disciples were assigned with transporting them to their new location to reside, and only those who were registered by them can enter the city. Naturally, those who were hurt were treated, and those who were hungry were led to the community canteen. One may say that the Lan Zhuayun Sect managed the survivors effectively enough to prevent chaos.

The Cao Clan was among the survivors, and they were a little afraid of crossing the barrier at the city’s gates. The rest of the Cao Family was still concerned about Cao Roulan since she had a devil inside of her while the others could cross over the barrier without harm.

“Rourou, are we going in?”

“I will go first. Stay away from me. If I get caught I will say I had nothing to do with you.” Cao Roulan said.

“Stop saying that! We are going with you!” said Mama Cao as she held her daughter’s hand.

In order to be able to conceal her face from the rest of the people in the vicinity of the barrier ever detected something strange, Cao Roulan’s two hands had been held by her father and mother while her brothers once stood in front of her and the other behind her.

The Cao Family crossed the barrier together. Cao Roulan was too tense as she went by it after being pulled over. Only when she sensed that the barrier was not obstructing her did she take a sigh of relief from the few seconds that took place just now?

Cao Roulan opened her eyes the following second and was already within the barrier. She was welcomed by the bustling market and the happy faces of the people she saw. She hadn’t seen this peaceful landscape in months, yet she used to take it for granted.

“Hi, you guys are one of the survivors right? I will show you the route to your new home and also explain some things like the public canteen and the mission board,” a disciple from the Bai Lengshui Sect greeted them.

“Thank you. We would like to see where we are supposed to live first.” Cao Roulan said.

The Bai Lengshui Disciple was wearing his blue robes with a wave pattern and said, “Then please follow me this way. Since you are a clan, your living conditions would be prepared accordingly. A courtyard would be given to you to live in. This way please...”

On a different side of the city, Cao Roulan and the Cao Family followed the disciples of the Bai Lengshui Sect. It was made available for living survivors. Since the catastrophe, Xia Jieye and Hei Anjing have advised Yun Huaxia to establish a territory where the other major sects may reside.

The Western city had been divided into three sections. The Bai Lengshui Sect, Jin Tiangui Sect, and Lu Weifeng Sect were honored with the parts. Naturally, only regular disciples and elders as well as a few surviving members from their own cities reside here. Although a minority of them may be regarded as relatives of the Sect Master of the Yun Clan, the leaders of each Sect continue to reside in the Lan Zhuayun Sect mountain range.

Everyone in the Western City knew that Lan Zhuayun Sect’s Master, Yun Huaxia had married the Sect Master of Bai Lengshui Sect, Bai Qiyin. That Bai Lili, the sole princess of the Bai Clan, had wed Jin Shiyan, Sect Master of the Jin Tiangui Sect. Moreover, Sect Master Yun Huaxia is the sworn brother of Lu Yi, the Great Elder of the Lu Weifeng Sect. All of the other Great Sects were linked by marriage or friendship, with the exception of the Hou Feng Sect, which had ties solely to the Royal Family.

Because of this, each survivor from the following sects was given a place to dwell. This is so as a result of the leaders of their city having links to the Lan Zhuayun Sect’s highest echelons.

Cao Roulan and her family were led into a modest but adequate courtyard, big enough to house at least a single small clan. A mansion like this was a joy to the Cao Clan.

The disciple of Bai Lengshui Sect starts explaining things to them, “This will be your new place. There is a public canteen that would be open once every week and the food would be free. If you have money it can be used as currency in the city. If not then you are welcome to find some jobs in the Mission Board at the building near the gates.”

“There would be simple missions like farming, or cleaning for ordinary people. Also hunting jobs for cultivators. Don’t worry these missions were only done within the barrier. As you know the whole of Western Land had been protected by the barrier Lord Hei had created to safeguard us. It is safe within the barrier.”

“There are also big jobs that were located outside the barrier but the requirements for them are strict so I don’t suggest you are not Golden Core Cultivators and above. For further questions, you can also go to the information building found within the marketplace.”

“I had successfully recorded your names under this house so please remember to pay for the rent at times. The rent for the first three months is free so there is no need to worry about being kicked out for the reason of lacking funds. That will be all for me. Welcome to the Western City!”

After seeing the young disciple go. Cao Roulan glanced around and noticed a scene that was somewhat similar to the one in her memories. People were freely moving about the market without fear of being attacked by demons, making for a tranquil atmosphere. Before the barrier was shattered, she grew accustomed to and tired of seeing this scene. But now such a sight is a luxury in this current era.

Cao Roulan mumbled, “I like this scene more than the carnage and death from before. It would be better if the humans and devils get along. At least there wouldn’t be any more wars in this place.”

Suddenly, Devil Baoshi who was inside her body started panicking as he spoke frantically, [Rourou, run! Someone extremely dangerous and one we can’t defeat is coming! Impossible! How did they know about us!?]

A black robe with white patterned clouds appears before Cao Roulan’s eyes all of a sudden. The wearer of these garments had descended from the skies and arrived in front of her. Cao Roulan was as scared as if she had just encountered the worst enemy in her life when she first observed the man’s appearance. She could never expect to defeat such an entity. There were other ordinary folks who also recognized the man and began saluting him.

With them collectively bowing their heads they greeted the arrival of this man, “We greet Chun Hongyun-Jun!”

“Continue your work. There is no need to be busy with me. I’m only running an errand for my wife.” Xia Jieye said.

Everyone in the city laughed because they were accustomed to seeing this great master perform errands for Lord Hei at the market. Everybody is aware of Chun Hongyun-Jun’s adoration for his Dao Companion and children. Every week, he would go down the mountain to buy delicacies for his family, and they had become accustomed to this. After a while, the throng thinned out and the market’s routine activities resumed.

On the other side, Cao Roulan was terrified to be silent. In the presence of an immortal like Xia Jieye, she could only maintain a stiff stance. As predicted with a wave of Xia Jieye’s hand the time around them had paused. Devil Baoshi and Cao Roulan were the only ones left in a state of confusion at the scene after he utilized Time Elements to pause the time around them. This legendary entity has complete power over everything with only one gesture.

Thoughts of the young girl in shocked, ‘T-The time... stopped!? How can he do that!?’

Cao Roulan was being watched by Xia Jieye, who seemed to be able to see right through her to her soul and the Devil she harbored.

“You are the vessel of the Devil that is the embodiment of laziness, ‘Sloth’. Devil Baoshi you had touched my wife’s younger sister and now my Dao Companion wishes to speak with you. This cannot be declined. As for whether you can live or not would depend on your choice. Come with this lord.”

Without giving any indication that he would be accepting rejection, Chun Hongyun-Jun said. His remarks were like a rule that one cannot break. Devil Baoshi had no option but to answer for Cao Roulan since, as was to be expected, she was too terrified to say anything.

Devil Baoshi said, “His highness commands this little one to comply.” He even kneeled on one knee and showed his greatest respect towards this man who possessed the bloodline of their King.

He is able to sense the powerful devil bloodline emanating from Xia Jieye as if he was only a wisp of their King’s soul. He couldn’t help but compare Xia Jieye to Zihao, the Demon of Pride and the other son of their ruler, because both were too powerful for him to contend with.
