I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1478 20.42 First Black Star - Relation

Anjia Village

Wang Xiajieʼs mansion.

The situation of Warden Yun Ming was quite dire and the God of Void personally made a move to extract the darkness corroding his soul. Yun Ming was in pain during the whole process and it made Zhi Yue pity him, yet the God of Void himself just stared at the man coldly as if the screams of Yun Ming couldnʼt affect him at all.

ARGH~

This process of extraction took at least half an hour and Warden Yun Ming once again fainted. His skin which was showing black veins had returned to the normal red and blue ones. Even though his skin no longer had shadowy tattoo-like things that continued to spread all over his body except for a bit for paleness, Warden Yun Ming had returned to normal.

Wang Xiajie retracted the purple qi he used to mask his original powers and instantly devoured the darkness that was extracted from Warden Yun Ming.

He said to Zhi Yue, ”You carry him inside and put him in the guest room. He should be able to wake up for late dinner or tomorrow at dawn.”

”Yes, my lord,” said Zhi Yue as he carefully picked up the unconscious Yun Ming with him and followed the lord back to the mansion.

Zhi Yue expected to be questioned by the old couple and Anwei when they got inside, but Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan only glanced at the man on Zhi Yueʼs back and pretended not to see Yun Ming, who was with them. Anwei also stared at Yun Ming, but also didnʼt ask who that person was. After all, he was informed that this man is a subordinate of Uncle Wang and asking would mean invading his privacy.

Aunt Yan, who just came out of the kitchen said, ”Dinner will be served soon. Xiao Yue, go bring your friend to the guest room and come back early so we can start eating.”

”Yes, Aunt Yan,” said Zhi Yue, who was stunned only for a moment, but still responded to Aunt Yanʼs words.

Wang Xiajie asked, ”Whatʼs for dinner?”

”Beggar Chicken and Peking Duck,” answered Anwei.

Wang Xiajie walked towards the sofa and sat down, ”Itʼs all meat. It must be your request. You should eat some vegetables. Anwei.”

”No! Itʼs bitter,” retorted Anwei.

Uncle Shun said, ”Go dig out the chicken in the front yard.”

”Yes,” said Wang Xiajie as he once again stood up and went to the front yard. Anwei went with him saying that he wanted to help dig some sweet potatoes in the pile.

The group ate without problems and as if the arrival of Yun Ming didnʼt cause much waves in their minds, they delightfully have their dinner together and spend time until, itʼs finally bedtime. Anwei, the youngest in the group, had returned to his room to sleep ahead of everyone. As for Zhi Yue, he also left to check on Yun Ming.

In the living room, the only ones left are Wang Xiajie and the old couple, Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan. The three were calmly waiting for each other to speak, and unexpectedly, Wang Xiajieʼs calmness in silence made the old couple sighed in awe.

They have never met a man of this age to remain composed in a place with a tense atmosphere, as if he would never be involved no matter what they do. Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan looked at one another, only when his wife had approved that Uncle Shun had spoken.

Cough!

Uncle Shun said, ”Xiao Xia, you must have already noticed. Your aunt and I are not mortals. We are what you call cultivators.”

”But donʼt overthink; we had no intention of hiding our identities, and we had longed to cut off our connections to our sects. We had nothing to do with them anymore!” said Aunt Yan. She cut off her husbandʼs words as if she were afraid that Wang Xiajie would misunderstand them.

Wang Xiajie asked straight to the point. He wanted to know whether these couples had come to this place for the original Wang Xiajie.

”Did you come to this place for me?”

Hahaha~

Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan looked at each other and laughed. It seems that Wang Xiajie got the wrong guess, and this old couple didnʼt come for Wang Xiajie, which made him relieved. After all, the original Wang Xiajie is no more, and that child had gone to reincarnation after he had taken over his body. This vesselʼs owner had no wish, but he cared for a few in his life.

However, he wouldnʼt have expected that the connection of Wang Xiajie to this old couple isnʼt simple at all.

After all, he used to be a fool and only recalled who he was before he died. The last thoughts he had in him were regrets. He felt guilt that he couldnʼt repay this old couple for saving him and wasted the old doctorʼs medicine on him. Thatʼs why he, the God of Void, took care closely of these three people and the people in the village. Because of this regret of the original Wang Xiajie.

Aunt Yan said, ”Of course not, silly boy!”

”If we came for you, we would have saved you before your fall in that cliff. It was truly a coincidence that this old man chose that route on my way home. I wanted to jump over the cliff to the mountains and go back home early,” said Uncle Shun.

Aunt Yan even said, ”That was the only time you did a good job using that route to go home. If you hadnʼt gone there, no one would have saved Xiao Xia.”

”I also thought so,” said Uncle Shun while nodding his head in agreement to his wifeʼs words.

Then he looked at Wang Xiajie and said, ”You must have remembered your real identity. Is it alright for you not to return to where you come from? Moreover, that young man just now looked like he was an official from the capital. So, you must be from the capital? Donʼt tell me you are the previous prodigal emperor? Haha~”

Uncle Shun said that last sentence as a joke before grabbing his coffee to moisten his throat. Who would have expected that he would regret drinking at this moment, especially when he heard about the response of Wang Xiajie.

Wang Xiajie nonchalantly said, ”Um. Itʼs me.”

Spurts~

Cough!

Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan looked at Wang Xiajie with round eyes as they couldnʼt believe what they had just heard. They truly didnʼt expect that the young man they had saved happened to be the infamous prodigal human emperor before the current one.

It was said that he was the worst human emperor in history, but only those who judge him by the rumors of his womanizing realize that they donʼt even realize how that human emperor kept the whole capital in order that even the barbarian or the cultivators dare to make a move in his territory.

”Are you for real!?” Uncle Shun truly couldnʼt believe that the young man he had saved is the only remaining true bloodline of royalty of the past dynasty. One that is well-known for both his good and bad attainments in life.

Wang Xiajie said, ”I may be the former human emperor, but I have no attachment to that throne. Since there was someone who wanted it, I gave it to him. Moreover, I also believe that my former male empress is more suitable than me to govern the territory.”

”Is this something that can be easily said? How come your identity is bigger than ours? We are just normal Yuanying (Nascent Soul) cultivators,” said Aunt Yan. Your next chapter is on empire

Wang Xiajie retorted, ”Being a Yuanying stage cultivator is enough for you to be an elder in any sect. How many could have reached that kind of cultivation. Aunt Yan is jesting.”

”My sister is stronger. She is the youngest God Transformation Stage cultivator and a diviner herself. No one knows what she had divine that she left the sect alone to marry the human emperor of that era,” said Aunt Yan as she recalled that the human emperor of that time was Wang Xiajieʼs father.

”Pardon me. I didnʼt intentionally look down on your father. It is just that he is truly a man that is unlikable and only kind to his wife.”

”Indeed. That man is a good lover, but not a good father and emperor,” said Wang Xiajie, and recalled that Uncle Shun mentioned that they are here to look for Aunt Yanʼs sister, who is his mother. But the mother of the original Wang Xiajie had disappeared after the death of her husband and even left him alone in the palace, making him announce to the world she is dead.

Wang Xiajie asked, ”Does that mean you came for my mother? Unfortunately, I donʼt know where she is. She left me in the Imperial Palace alone and asked me to announce her death. Is that why you have descended into the mortal world?”

”There is that, but not entirely. There is also a story about our sonʼs death. So, thatʼs the reason for the rumors about the death of my sister-in-law, but why would she do such a thing?” said Uncle Shun.

On the other hand, Aunt Yan snorted and said, ”At least she is still alive. There is no need to worry about her anymore. Itʼs not like we can find her if she wants to hide. However, how can she leave a young child, like Xiao Xia, at that time. Isnʼt he barely 15 when he sat on the throne? Just what is my sister thinking!?”

”Itʼs alright, Aunt. She had always been like that,” said Wang Xiajie as he remembered going through the memories of Wang Xiajie and knew how he lived his life in the imperial palace.

Always alone, the ministers and officials wanted to take over his authority as the emperor as well as having suffered endless assassination attempts. Wang Xiajie forced himself to look like a dandy just to survive in the palace. In that hell, the only light in the life of Wang Xiajie is his male empress; unfortunately, this man had never thoroughly given his heart to him.

Thatʼs why when the male empress and his people revolted, the original Wang Xiajie didnʼt do anything to stop them. He gave up the throne voluntarily and even gave his male empress all of the purple qi he had at that time. The original was planning on living in the borderlands all his life.

But who would have thought that the ministers and officials would make a move of assassinating him on the way, which led to him becoming a fool and dying under the blind bear claws like a cannon fodder?

Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan thought that Wang Xiajie was recalling bad memories about his parents and couldnʼt help but worry about him.

Aunt Yan hugged him out of nowhere and heard the middle-aged lady say, ”Donʼt worry, Xiao Xia. Considering that we are your biological aunt and uncle, itʼs okay if you want to treat us as your parents.”

”Ahem! Uncle also doesnʼt mind having one more son,” said Uncle Shun.

Wang Xiajie smiled, but the happiness within his heart doesnʼt come from him but from the remnant emotion the original left in his body. Only at this moment did he feel that Wang Xiajie had completely let go of this life.

Wang Xiajie mumbles, ”Iʼve long treated you both as my parents.” He might have whispered these words, but the old couple heard about this and smiled.
