I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 724: 14.0 Last Violet Star - Back alone to the Netherworld.

After returning to the Netherworld...

Ye Xiajie once again returned to the domain he owned escorted by the two Supreme Rulers, Mo Baojun and Shen Siwang. Bringing Ye Xiajie back is a task the Origin had told them to do. The opened space portal had to lead them directly back to the throne room in the Netherworld.

On the opposite side, Hei Jue, Elder Hei Mo, and Nethergod An Liang were waiting for their return. Hei Jueʼs expression turned cold when he didnʼt see his cousin coming out of the portal with this group.

Hei Jue questioned Ye Xiajie, ”Surnamed Ye! Whereʼs Jingʼer!?”

Ye Xiajie wasnʼt in the mood to answer and ignored Hei Jue. The aura he is emitting was enough for the others to feel suffocation, especially the weak ones in this realm who had long fallen unconscious.

”Xia, canʼt you calm down for a moment? You have made a promise with yourself (soul core) no matter what you are forbidden to go to the world where Xiao Jingʼer had gone to,” said Shen Siwang.

If there is someone who could scold and reprimand Ye Xiajie except for his wife, that would only be Shen Siwangʼs alter ego. This man was also his brother figure but Hei Anjingʼs standing in Ye Xiajieʼs heart is above this man.

Ye Xiajie clicked his tongue and responded to his brother, ”I know. Stop nagging!”

He sat on his throne with a thud and closed his eyes. Obviously, intending to ignore everyone including his brother, his friend and his wifeʼs family, and his elder.

Nethergod An Liang whispered, ”Sweetie, he doesnʼt seem to be in a good mood. Just let him be for a while.”

”Fine. Hmp!” responded Hei Jue.

Elder Mo approached the two Sovereign Gods and asked about his grandsonʼs situation. Unlike the younger generation like Hei Jue and the rest, he knew how devastating the destruction a world eater can cause. He had witnessed the obliteration of countless worlds before the Origin and the End worked together to eliminate that race. He couldnʼt understand how a supposed to be an extinct race still exists in this generation.

”How is the world eater fragment? Was it destroyed?” asked Elder Hei Mo.

Mo Baojun responded, ”It was destroyed. I donʼt know how Jingʼer had done it but... He lends his domain to his other half and lets Ye Xiajie do it for him.”

”Are you not able to let your husband use your domain as well?” asked Elder Hei Mo.

He knew about the special connection Mo and his other half had. They are able to share anything. From memories to abilities, to qi, and even pain and emotions.

Mo Baojun answered, ”I can but... Jingʼer and Ye Xiajieʼs case is different. They havenʼt completed the Trials of Marriage and are still missing one marriage to consider it complete. I couldnʼt understand why Jingʼer is able to allow Ye Xiajie to use it. This is what confuses me.”

”Isnʼt it weird enough that Xiao Jingʼer had chosen Xia right after he was born as his other half? Even though you had thought twice of accepting me as your other half, thatʼs why I couldnʼt understand why these two are able to do it at such a young age,” said Shen Siwang.

Mo Baojun said, ”The truth is even my brother and I are confused why Jingʼer was so clingy to Xia Jieye at birth. But it can be accepted if he was chosen as his other half. After all, there is no way we can make a mistake in choosing the person we will love for all eternity.”

”There must be something we do need to know. I want to ask the Origin about this, hubby, can you stay here to look after him?”

”Sure. Go ahead. I will watch over Xia for you,” said Shen Siwang as he caressed his wifeʼs cheeks and kissed his forehead.

Mo Baojun remained expressionless but his unguarded figure before Shen Siwang shows his trust and love for this man.

Mo Baojun said before leaving, ”I will be back soon.”

After Sovereign Ruler Mo Baojun had left, Shen Siwang ordered the rest to continue their own jobs leaving only his and Ye Xiajieʼs figure in the throne room.

Silence spreads in the area and leaves an awkward atmosphere between the two brothers. They havenʼt spent time like this ever since Ye Xijaie died as Xia Jieye thousands of years ago. Moreover, ever since Hei Anjing was born, Ye Xiajie had stopped pestering Shen Siwang and going in between him and his wife, Mo Baojun.

Shen Siwang was patient as always. He kept a gentle smile on his face but didnʼt speak a word as if waiting for Ye Xiajie to open the conversation instead. His nature had always been completely opposed to Ye Xiajieʼs indifferent, arrogant, and short-tempered disposition.

He is more patient, and gentle but strict, and sees things more in the big picture. He is like an embodiment of stability and purity.

Ye Xiajie spoke, ”Why are you still here? You should have left with your wife? Are you going to watch over me until Jingʼer returns?”

”I do. You are currently not allowed to leave Netherworld as of now. Why donʼt you continue your job as the Lord God of the Nether System while you are here? Since you had nothing to do,” said Shen Siwang.

Ye Xiajie opened his eyes and looked at Shen Siwang who was smiling at him with a knowing gaze. He knew that this man knows what kind of things he is currently worrying about. He knows yet is not willing to tell him the answer himself and was waiting for him to ask the questions instead. Even though he hated seeing for someone seeing through him when it comes to Shen Siwang he feels thatʼs natural. Because they were created from the same beginning yet contrasted with each other. They exist together to be one like yin and yang.

The Lord God of Netherworld said, ”You already know what I wanted to ask but... You are not willing to give an answer.”

”Hm~ I donʼt know what you are talking about. Unless you ask the question, only then would I give you an answer. Isnʼt that more appropriate?” said Shen Siwang.

The gentle smile on his holy face was enough to piss off Ye Xiajie. Even if he wanted to beat him up, he knew that at his current strength he wouldnʼt be able to beat this person up. He couldnʼt even beat Ye Mo in that world.

Ye Xiajie murmured in depression and silent anger, ”If only I got my original strength back... You guys wouldnʼt be treating me like this.”

”What nonsense. I treat you this way even if you got your original strength back,” retorted Shen Siwang.

Ye Xiajie glared at his brother who just kept smiling at his malaise.

Tsk!

Shen Siwang said, ”You are still rude as always.”

”I wanted to know about the last stage of the second phase of the Revival Trials. Are you willing to tell me what happened to you and that tyrant that time?” said Ye Xiajie.

Shen Siwang raised his eyebrows as he thought of something about his brotherʼs question.

”Heh~ you are talking about the final requirement to complete the second trial is it?”

Ye Xijaie lightly nods his head in agreement with Shen Siwangʼs words.

Shen Siwangʼs smile suddenly faded as he recalled some things in the past. A non-smiling holy being like Shen Siwang was no different than Ye Xiajie who is emitting a dangerous aura and feelings of detachment. He obviously did not like what he recalled just now.

”Youʼre asking whether he does it or not?”

”...Yes...”

”Of course he did it. I was killed by Mo Baojun with his own hands for the final requirement of the second trial of Revival,” said Shen Siwang.

Shen Siwang looked serious when he said these words. He stares at Ye Xiajie with dull eyes as if he had done the last thing in this world he never wanted to do in his whole life. It was because that was the only time he had seen his wife break down for his sake. Shen Siwang would never forget that scene in his eternity.

Ye Xiajie could feel the feeling of sadness, regret, and depression coming from his brother. The feelings were so strong that he could also hardly breathe under the suppression of Shen Siwangʼs aura. His bad mood greatly affected the atmosphere around him.

”That final requirement. I cannot not do it?” asked Ye Xiajie.

Shen Siwang responded, ”Not doing it is the same as killing both you and your other half for all eternity. Those who had failed the Trials of Revival had all perished. Obliterated at the sense of nothingness. There would be no more reincarnation or next life if you failed.”

”Xia, you cannot avoid this. Regardless of whether you are willing or not, for the sake of your beloved. You must kill your other half. If you want to save both of your lives.”

The words Shen Siwang is telling Ye Xijaie were like thorns that pierced his heart. Who in the world would be able to bear the pain of killing his beloved with his own hands? Mo Baojun did it but the pain and sadness he felt at that time made even Shen Siwang suffer. At the very least no person is willing to do it. But not doing so means killing both himself and his beloved. Plus this death is eternal. They would no longer exist anymore.

Ye Xiajie asked, ”You were killed by Mo Baojun?”

”I was. Thatʼs the only way he can save me at that time. Did you really think you could revive a person whose vessel would turn to ashes after your soul had been completed and whose soul has been ripped apart for a few fragments to live a life in another world just to continue nourishing your body until youʼve opened your eyes? And then... those soul fragments live a life in an endless loop and someone had to bring those fragments back.”

”Xia, at that time. I no longer have any memories of the trial. As a soul fragment, the only thing that I know is that I am living for someoneʼs sake and that my life in that world exists forever. My wife had to pick up those soul fragments of mine in those worlds.”

”He had experienced what I had experienced. Meeting the person you love who has no memories of you at all. He had to make me fall in love with him all over again. After everything was over, my wife was so upset that he beat me up for a few years until he forgives me.” explained Shen Siwang.

Ye Xiajieʼs face was painted with great pain. Just the fact he had to kill his Jingʼer with his own hands frightens him more than anything.

”I really have to do it?” he asked.

Shen Siwang responded, ”You must. Because that will be the last and only time you would hurt your other half. After the trial of marriage and revival is completed, like I and Baojun, you will live a shared life. Even in life and death, you would be together. As long as both perish at the same time, my wife and I will exist for eternity.”

”If you and Xiao Jingʼer completed the trial of Revival then... By that time we would be having the same strength. Both of us will no longer be the strongest in this realm because you and Xiao Jingʼer would possess the same cultivation and destiny as I and Baojun. Living forever and dying together. Souls are shared as one. Always forever. Isnʼt this what youʼve always dreamt of having? A person that will exist only for your sake and you shall exist only for his sake as well.”

”Plus, arenʼt you luckier than me and my wife? During our trials, we hadnʼt made enough preparations and ended up suffering more. But I donʼt believe that Xiao Jingʼer didnʼt devise some countermeasures. He wouldnʼt be my wifeʼs nephew if he didnʼt plan ahead. Itʼs just that Iʼm afraid you wouldnʼt know about it until it happens.” said Shen Siwang.

Ye Xiajie asked, ”You think Jingʼer is planning something ahead?”

”Of course. Do you think his blood as a Mo is fake? That clan is born with a higher intelligence quotient than most in the world. Their existence is almost a taboo that all realms prevent them from propagating. Their descendants get lesser at each generation. I and your brother-in-law only had two children. Mother-in-law and Father-in-law only had three. After my wife was born, I was told that Mother Mo had lost her fertility,” said Shen Siwang.

Ye Xiajie said with a frown on his face, ”Are you saying that Xiao Jing would be our only child?”

”You are still lucky you know. Hei Sian and Brother Mo Yue had to create Xiao Jingʼer artificial with their genes and that itself cost countless trials and errors. In the first place the generation of Xiao Jingʼer never expected to have descendants born naturally,” said Shen Siwang.
