I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1480 20.44 First Black Star - Remnant Emotions

The cold reaction of Wang Xiajie was witnessed by everyone in the mansion. Uncle Shun, Aunt Yan, and Yun Ming didnʼt react much. The old couple were cultivators detached from mortal emotions, as the latter is a god, and the things that could enter his line of sight were only those who he was interested in.

But unexpectedly, Anwei, who is supposed to be an ordinary person, didnʼt react to Wang Xiajieʼs words as if he had long expected him to react this way.

Wang Xiajie and Yun Ming pretended that they didnʼt notice the silent reaction of Anwei; as for the old couple, they were too uninterested in the problems of the monarch and only wanted to continue living their lives as it were. They found the only son of Aunt Yanʼs sister; even if she couldnʼt find her own sister, knowing that she was alive, there was no need to worry further.

Cultivators are long-lived after all. It is normal for them to seclude themselves somewhere hidden to continue their cultivation or break through to another stage. Whatʼs important to them is their cultivation and longevity as well as ascension. Though it is currently impossible to ascend due to the world blocking heavenʼs path due to the missing domain lord, it is still nice to dream, right?

The people in the mansion resume their lives without care of whatever is happening in the capital. Yun Ming looked a lot better now than when he first arrived in the mansion last night. Aunt Yan learned from her husband what happened before and treated Yun Ming more attentively as he is someone who is supposed to be healing.

Aunt Yan smiled and passed a bowl of soup with a lot of fish flesh to Yun Ming.

She said, ”Xiao Ming, we heard the situation from Xiao Xia. Donʼt worry about anything; just eat well and rest well.”

”Thank you, Madam Yan,” said Yun Ming respectfully in the eyes of the people of this world; he is supposed to be a scholar whose manners were almost ingrained in their bones.

Seeing a gentle, handsome man with just a manner made Aunt Yanʼs eyes satisfied.

”Hm~ this young man is too handsome! Eat more!” said Aunt Yan.

The forgotten husband who hasnʼt even received a bowl of soup yet complained to his wife.

”Darling, where is my bowl of soup?” asked Uncle Shun.

Aunt Yan glanced at her husband and said, ”Donʼt you have hands? Serve one yourself!”

Seeing the usual playful antics between the old couple made the youngsters laugh. They knew that Aunt Yan didnʼt mean her words and that she was only joking with her husband. A bowl of soup with fish flesh whose bones were personally removed by Aunt Yan was served before Uncle Shun. The married man happily sips this bowl of soup carefully served by his beloved wife.

Uncle Shun said, ”Darling, your cooking is still as great as before!”

A chopstick was stuffed in Uncle Shunʼs mouth, which is full of vegetables, pushed in through his mouth by the embarrassed madame.

Aunt Yan said, ”Shut up! Eat your food!”

After dinner, everyone had gathered in the living room to have some tea to digest their food. It was this time that the old couple started asking questions to Yun Ming.

Uncle Shun asked, ”Xiao Ming, you are an official in the capital, right? Is it alright for you to not go to work?”

”Itʼs fine, Sir Shun. Someone will take over my position after I am gone. Moreover, I canʼt go back to the capital anymore and planned to go to the south to find my lover,” said Yun Ming.

Aunt Yan said, ”Itʼs good that you have a lover. Xiao Xia didnʼt even have someone in his eyes. He doesnʼt even want to go to matchmakings I have found for him. Hmp!”

”Aunt, not this again. You already know that I am a married person. I cannot just find another. What would I do if my wife came to see me?” said Wang Xiajie.

Hiss~

Anwei, who was carefully drinking milk tea, burned his tongue. Now his tears were pooling some tears at the corner of his eyes.

Wang Xiajie frowned and helped the poor guy with ice water.

”Here. Drink this! Didnʼt Aunt say that the tea is hot?! Why didnʼt you drink your tea carefully?!” said Wang Xiajie.

Anwei said, ”I just wanted to taste the strawberry bits. Just a bit.”

Yun Ming passed a clean chopstick to him. ”Here. Feel free to use it. Itʼs clean.”

”Thank you!” said Anwei as he almost bitten his tongue this time.

Wang Xiajie seems to have expected it and pushed in a quarter of a clean handkerchief in Anweiʼs mouth.

”Donʼt bite your tongue next! Donʼt worry about the handkerchief. Itʼs clean. Hold it yourself!” said Wang Xiajie.

Anwei looked like a bullied puppy as he accepted the handkerchief.

”T-Tank... you, Owie~” said Anwei.

Seeing Anwei seem to be truly in pain made Wang Xiajie uncomfortable. He reached out a hand before him and used light elements to cure his tongue. Of course, he used his purple qi to mask his ability to use light elements. He might get revered as a god if others saw it.

Everyone only saw a purple aura coming from Wang Xiajie floating towards Anwei. This aura hovers above his lips until he finally feels that the pain in his mouth is gone. A shocked look appeared on Anwei, Uncle Shun, and Aunt Yanʼs faces, which was as if a miracle had happened.

Anwei mumbles, ”The pain is gone.”

”Is this healing? Xiao Xia, can you use your purple qi to heal people?!” exclaimed Aunt Yan.

Wang Xiajie was a bit surprised by the over reaction of his aunt, but still answered honestly.

”I cannot resurrect the dead. However, as long as there is a spark of life left, I can bring the person back to his healthy state. This cost too much of my qi though,” said Wang Xiajie.

Aunt Yan and Uncle Shun looked excited and their eyes were full of anticipation and hope. The two of them only have two children. The eldest died miserably, and they couldnʼt even find out who the culprits were. As for their youngest daughter, she was with her brother when he died, and for some reason an unknown poison had entered her body, preventing her from waking up no matter what they did.

All of their resources were poured onto their daughter, which extended her life until now, but even that is already at the limit.

Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan looked at each other, planning to kneel before Wang Xiajie to save their daughter. However, before their knees touched the ground, Wang Xiajieʼs purple qi had pulled them up.

Feeling angry in his heart due to the emotions of the original influencing Wang Xiajie, he felt a bit disappointed with his uncle and auntʼs actions.

”Donʼt kneel. I will agree with what you wanted to ask. Bring the patient here tomorrow. I will treat her. Itʼs too late. You two should also be home.

Goodnight,” said Wang Xiajie before climbing up the stairs.

Yun Ming and Anwei helped the two old couples stand up from their frozen state. It was only at this moment that the old couple regretted what they had done. Suddenly, kneeling before Wang Xiajie instead of asking him properly for help seems like they truly didnʼt treat the young man as their own.

In reality, that wasnʼt their thoughts at all. Itʼs just that they had lost all hope of saving their daughter and had forgotten everything at that moment. After learning their daughter had hope, they had forgotten their relationship with Wang Xiajie. This turned their relationship a bit sour. It was as if between the real child and a nephew, no one can beat the real one.

Once Wang Xiajie had left the living room, Yun Ming and Anwei helped the old couple calm down, even helping them to the next house next door. They stayed in the original house of the old couple and stayed in a silent but tense atmosphere in the house. This stillness was broken when Uncle Shun spoke up.

Uncle Shun said, ”We are wrong. We shouldnʼt have attempted to kneel.”

Aunt Yan is already crying at the realization that she seems to be no different from his sister, who had abandoned her son after her husband died. In the end, her own interests were above everything.

Anwei said, ”Donʼt cry, Grandma~”

Neither Yun Ming nor Anwei had said words that Wang Xiajie wouldnʼt mind their actions because they knew that this had truly affected Wang Xiajie due to the circumstances of his childhood. Not only as Wang Xiajie, but also as the God of Void, Ye Xiajie.

The original Wang Xiajie wasnʼt loved by his mother. Only his father showed his love for him as his son. But even so, this love is only second to his motherʼs, who will always be the top priority of his father. Because of this, the original Wang Xiajie yearns for familial love, which was given to him by Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan before he died.

On the other hand, the God of Void, reincarnated after his death as Ye Jieye, was born in a race with a strong and strict hierarchy in it. In the Ye Gui race, only the one with a powerful bloodline can be considered as someone from the main bloodline and get the surname of Ye. For those whose bloodline is average, regardless of who their father is, they would never receive the surname of Ye.

Itʼs because of this that Ye Xiajie didnʼt experience what family love is. His mother chose to protect his weaker younger brother than protect him as well. Gods are mostly detached from mortal emotions, but this doesnʼt mean they donʼt have it. Itʼs just less emotional than mortals have.

But Ye Xiajie is different; he had been reborn from Xia Jieye, who had witnessed the family love between the Mo Clan and his alter ego as well as his brother, Shen Siwang. He might act indifferently, but in reality he had been jealous of his brother. Shen Siwang lives with his wife, Mo Baojun, in the Mo family mansion.

His brother gave up his luxurious palace of light and lived in a small subdivision where the Mo Clan lived. Moreover, everyone in the Mo Clan, including the parents and aunt of Hei Anjing, treated him as family. The God of Void was envious of this love. He was jealous of the love between the lovers.

As a God that rules the darkness, he believes and other people think that he will live to be alone forever. His power is that powerful and that dangerous, even for gods. Find more adventures on empire

Though everything had changed when his Jingʼer was born, as if fate had brought him over and his destiny called on to him, he was actually the first one to notice the existence of the little guy. He would sneak into the Mo family mansion just to play with him at night, and little Jingʼer would be delighted to spend time with him.

Thatʼs why even if the God of Void grew up devoid of emotions for familial love, his love for his beloved is the strongest instead.

But in this world, the original owner of the vessel, the God of Void, didnʼt leave any wishes to fulfill. Instead, he left all kinds of emotions in this vessel as if he wanted to leave a trace that he had lived this life. Itʼs just that these remnant emotions would sometimes leave Wang Xiajie bewildered, like what happened just now.

Normally, the God of Void wouldnʼt care if hundreds or thousands of gods kneeled before him, but when he saw that old couple wanting to kneel before him, it made Wang Xiajie uncomfortable and disappointed. Itʼs the original emotions that gave him this sadness, which made him want to be away from the old couple. Thus he reminded them indirectly to let him be alone for the night.
