I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1486 20.50 First Black Star - Daughter

That night, what System Yue had feared had become reality. The fake human emperor had drugged Puppet Wang Xiajie. The puppets, who only have the memories of the original Wang Xiajie but not the current existence of the God of Void, follow through with what the original would have done.

At the very least, the original Wang Xiajie, who is in love with his male empress, would see the fake human emperor as the same person, and thus, what the fake human emperor had plotted becomes a reality.

It seems that the fake human emperor is truly in love with the original Wang Xiajie and is obsessed with him. Maybe this is the real reason why he took over the life of Hei Xiaojing because he wanted a life that lived together with this man, Wang Xiajie. Sadly, he didnʼt know that the original Wang Xiajie had died and that the one beside him right now is not even a human.

System Yue and System Yang, who had no other choice but to watch the copulation between these two fakes.

[...….]

Zhi Yue said, [We are… dead! If the God of Void knew about this, we…]

[Itʼs fine. This fake human emperor doesnʼt seem to be a candidate for Lord Heiʼs incarnation. We should be alright,] said Zhi Yang.

Zhi Yue retorted, [No. Thatʼs not it. This puppet wears his current face. Seeing that this puppet slept with someone else, I think the Lord might exterminate it on the spot.]

[It should be okay. Itʼs not like he would suddenly go to the capital and bump with the puppet, right?] said Zhi Yang.

Zhi Yue said, [If that truly happens… Can we save our lives?]

[...]

This time Zhi Yang didnʼt know what to say. After all, if Lord Ye and this puppet met, then itʼs another whole chaos not only in the capital but also in this world. He can only pray that when that happens, Lord Heiʼs incarnation wasnʼt with him. As it might not end with just chaos alone, but a catastrophe.

In the borderlands...

Achoo!

Wang Xiajie, who just woke up and was drinking the black coffee Anwei Sol suddenly sneezed. Which startled Anwei and Yun Ming. That was such a rare scene for this man.

Anwei asked worriedly, ”Uncle Wang, are you alright? Should I call the Master over to check on you? Maybe your old wounds are acting up!”

Stopping the small hand that was about to touch his forehead, Wang Xiajie said, ”Iʼm alright. Itʼs impossible for me to be sick.”

”I donʼt believe it. Let me make a drink to warm you up. Stop drinking that coffee!” said Anwei, who ran to the kitchen to keep himself busy.

Watching the departing back of the young man, Wang Xiajie turned his head to Yun Ming.

”Have Uncle and Aunt returned to the village with their daughter yet?”

”Not yet, Lord Ye. They left at dawn. They should return before lunch,” answered Yun Ming.

Wang Xiajie returned his gaze to his black coffee and was about to take it for a drink, but a smaller hand took it away. When he raised his head, he saw Anwei glaring at him, and he could only raise his hand in surrender. Even he was surprised when he had instinctively done such a gesture. Normally, he is fearless and merciless in everything.

Anwei passed him a new cup with hot ginger tea and said, ”Drink this. Just in case. Itʼs better to have this for today to make sure you wonʼt get sick.”

”Sigh~ I will be okay,” said Wang Xiajie as he took the ginger tea Anwei made for him. It is also a bitter drink with a bit of a spicy aftertaste.

After waiting for a while, Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan, together with a young lady in her teens being carried by Uncle Shun, were welcomed in the mansion by Anwei and Yun Ming, who served some drinks to them. They were all wearing a family set of cultivation robes, and clearly they used their Qi to return to a more youthful version than the middle-aged ones from before.

Anwei showed surprise, but this was only an act, as he was supposed to be the only mortal living in this mansion. Wang Xiajie and Yun Ming remained expressionless and showed no surprise upon seeing the changes on this former old couple.

As for the patient, a young lady, she was placed on the long sofa with her eyes closed as if peacefully sleeping. If not for the fact that her complexion is quite pale, one would have thought she was only napping at this moment.

Wang Xiajie said, ”Uncle, Aunt, I canʼt promise you I can wake her up, but donʼt blame me if that truly happens.”

”We know. Donʼt worry. Just do as you can,” said Uncle Shun, who now looks like a young man in his late thirties.

Now his appearance is only a bit older than Wang Xiajie, and they can be considered brothers of the same generation with this appearance. Aunt Yan is also the same. She looked younger compared to her wrinkled expressions from before, when she looked like an old, middle-aged aunt in her menopausal stage.

”We wonʼt blame you if you canʼt wake her up. We hope you try your best. We had found all doctors and healers all over this place and even the old man couldnʼt find out what was wrong with her,” said Aunt Yan.

The God of Void isnʼt proficient in medicine like his wife, but he can use light elements to heal as his brother taught him how. Though he couldnʼt be compared to his brother, Shen Siwang, this God of Light and Creation, when it comes to healing, curing dying mortals is not a problem.

Cultivators, especially those who havenʼt reached the threshold for ascension, are all mortals in the eyes of the divinities from the upper realm.

”I can heal her, but let Yun Ming check on her situation first. So, we can know what caused her to fall asleep for such a long period of time,” said Wang Xiajie.

Anwei asked, ”Is Brother Yun a doctor?”

”Yes, I can be considered one,” said Yun Ming. He approached the patient and looked at the pair of parents, asking for permission to touch the young girl.

Only when Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan had nodded that he took out a thin veil from his pocket, which was directly taken from his inventory, and placed it over the wrist of the sleeping young lady. Yun Ming checked her pulse to see if there was a problem with her body.

If itʼs an illness, a simple healing spell can cure her, but if she is cursed or something, they will need to use purification on her or surgery if necessary.

Upon checking, he noticed that the reason this young lady is asleep is because of a curse, but this is a female cultivator; their body will remain in its optical state as long as they are breathing. However, for some reason, the body of this young lady is too weak, and the qi in her is fading. He chose to carefully run his qi in the young ladyʼs body and saw a hint of a black shadow in it.

He was shocked but still tried to approach it closely for checking. Who would have expected that this ball of darkness would attack him and devour even the qi he poured in the ladyʼs body?

Gasp!

Noticing the situation, Yun Ming instantly cut off his qi and opened his eyes. His cold sweat strolls down from his temples to the side of his face and looks as everyoneʼs worrying expressions. Everyone in the living room is a cultivator; thatʼs why they saw how Yun Ming gently injected his qi into the young ladyʼs body to check. This is how medical practitioners checked their patients.

Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan had seen this many times when they found doctors in their sect. Unfortunately, they didnʼt find anything at all. Thatʼs why they were surprised when Yun Ming abruptly woke up as if something terrifying was found in their daughterʼs body.

Aunt Yan asked, ”Whatʼs wrong, Xiao Yun? Have you found out what is happening to her?”

”Aunt Yan, you said that this girl had been poisoned and cursed before?” Yun Ming asked.

Aunt Yan answered with bewilderment on her face, yet still answered honestly. ”Yes. The curse had been purified multiple times, but it would still return for some reason. The poison had been resolved though.”

”What have you found out, Xiao Yun? Tell us without hiding anything, please!” said Uncle Shun to Yun Ming.

Yun Ming stood up and moved away from the patient and said, ”The poison is gone and the curse is still there. The thing is something inside of her was alive. An orb of darkness, it was slowly eating her Qi from the inside. If you had stopped giving her body some qi to keep her alive, her soul would be eaten as well. I donʼt know what this orb of darkness is, but...

the lord should still be able to resolve it.”

”Is it that thing?” asked Wang Xiajie.

The thing he is talking about is a piece of gluttony. This ability can be controlled and left inside oneʼs body to slowly kill its host. As for the qi that was eaten by it, the controller of this piece of gluttony would receive it regardless of distance. There are a few people who can use such precise control over gluttony.

One of them was Tun Shizhe, and the other one thought unsure; the God of Void thought of that man in black cloaked before. That is a being who possessed a similar ability as himself. So he wouldnʼt be surprised if he can also control the power of gluttony to some extent.

Yun Ming nodded his head and respectfully responded, ”Yes, my lord.”

Once he responded to his lord, he noticed that none of the three people asked what that thing they mentioned just now. Clearly, they were curious about what it was but still didnʼt ask. This shows how much trust they give to him and the God of Void.

”Then it can easily be resolved. Where is it located?” asked Wang Xiajie as he stood beside the patient.

Yun Ming replied, ”In her heart.”

Under everyoneʼs gaze, Wang Xiajie covered his hand with golden qi, which is divinity, and without any hesitation he stabbed his hand towards the young ladyʼs heart, which shocked everyone except Yun Ming.

AHH!

When they saw no splash of blood, they realized that Wang Xiajieʼs hand passed through the body of the young lady without harming her directly. After making a grabbing motion with his hand, Wang Xiajie, who caught the piece of gluttony inside the girl, pulled it out. Before it was pulled out, he used his purple qi to cover it and made the power of gluttony in his body eat this piece.

The glowing purple orb in his hand disappeared, and the young lady lying on the sofa started to slowly wake up.

Wang Xiajie said, ”Okay. Itʼs done.”

”M-Mom? D-Dada?” calls the young lady.

Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan stare at their daughter, who finally woke up. She tried to move and almost had a hard time doing so. Her whole body was out of energy and barely able to move. Her voice was raspy, as she hadnʼt drank anything for a long time.

Aunt Yan wanted to hug her daughter, but as if she were afraid of breaking her, she could only reach out her trembling hands.

”Youʼre!? You are finally awake!” Stay updated via empire

Seeing this situation, Anwei decided to cook a soup for her. Yun Ming helped her seat up and checked on her once again.

”She is alright. The Lord had healed her well. Her body is completely healed. Once she starts eating nourishing meals, she will return to a normal state.”

”Can we hug her?” asked Uncle Shun with tears in the corner of his eyes.

Yun Ming nodded his head and said, ”You can, but be gentle. Her bones are quite brittle at the moment, and dislocation can happen.”

Aunt Yan and Uncle Shun carefully hug their daughter while crying. The young lady, whose last memory was the death of his brother, couldnʼt help but be confused. Upon seeing her parentsʼ tears, she understood that something must have happened to her as well.

The old couple looked at Wang Xiajie and Yun Ming with grateful looks and kept chanting, ”Thank you. Thank you.”
