Chapter 602: 12.4 Unknown Star – SSS World: Vearth, The Case of An Liang (4)

An Liang received a threat to his daughter’s life. This time the other side is no longer just asking for information but is asking him to kill someone for them and this someone happens to be a family member of his. The target of assassination is the biological grandfather of his beloved wife and the former patriarch of the Hei Clan, Hei Mo. The guilt in his heart had been weighing him all this time. How many times had he put the lives of his best friend and his wife in danger thanks to him giving the enemies their location all the time? How many times had Hei Anjing died just to save his husband, Ye Xiajie? He had seen Hei Anjing return in the System Space countless times looking like he was about to disappear due to the over usage of his soul.

He had seen him cough a mouthful of blood yet retain his consciousness as if he was not feeling any pain. An Liang had seen that scene once and because of his guilt, he had a hard time meeting Hei Anjing every time he returned to the Nether System and instead avoided him most of the time unless he called for him. It got even harder for him to stay in the Nether System when Ye Xiajie’s soul could finally return to his territory. He is frightened by the fact that this friend of his who is merciless and cruel towards his enemy would one day point his sword at him. Though he knew that such a scene would happen in the future, he couldn’t allow himself to get caught yet. After all, his daughter hasn’t returned home to their side yet.

As a father, he is willing to give up everything for his daughter, this includes the only friend he has and even betrays his laws if needed. After all, even if he is gone, his wife would still be there for their daughter. As long as he doesn’t get Hei Jue involved in this farce, we wouldn’t be treated as traitors by his own family.

An Liang made his decision. He had chosen his daughter over his in-laws. l looked through the warehouse attached to his office where he had hidden some of his weapon collection and took a dagger with a black blade. This black blade dagger had a special effect that could harm even Celestial Gods. It was dyed into numerous poisons and was said to have no cure at all. He wanted the death of his grandfather-in-law to be painless but he doesn’t have any weapons with God-slaying effects. Those kinds of weapons, he is afraid that only Hei Anjing and his friend, Ye Xiajie would have in possession. Those weapons of such kind are considered cursed weapons and only a chosen few can control them without losing their minds.

He stared at the poisonous dagger in his hands, he was still reluctant to do whatever he had in mind. Even though he had already made his decision, the thought of killing his own family member weighed not only in his heart and mind but also in his soul. The karma he gets from killing his own family is heavy. It wouldn’t be surprising if he either ended up dead for real or got detained in the Nether System like those other Gods that had broken the divine rules that all the realms must follow.

Sigh~

“Let’s go over it.” mumbled An Liang as he hid the dagger inside his space ring and stood up preparing to meet Hei Mo who was imprisoned in the deepest layer of the Nether Hell.

.....

He knew what kind of land the deepest layer of the Netherworld is. It could be said that the deepest layer of the Netherworld is a neutral zone. Because in this place all other energies including qi and mana were all restrained. No one would use them unless they use special means to do so. In this land, any gods and goddesses that entered this realm returned to the state where they are as weak as mortals. Only the strength of your body has remained and the most heinous prisoners of the Nether System were imprisoned in this place, In this place which light would never reach and with all their limbs chained to the land.

Thinking of nothing but his daughter’s safety, he had walked towards the prison area with heavy steps. Hei Jue appeared from behind him as he left the space dimension he created to monitor his movements. He had never expected that the reason for his husband’s betrayal is the safety of their daughter’s life and An Juehua’s well-being. Hei Jue’s tears couldn’t be held back thinking of all the sacrifices his husband made for their daughter. He also wouldn’t understand how much his husband’s guilt eats his heart. He had to betray his only friend for his only daughter.

Somewhere in the unknown universe...

In some abandoned star, Xia Jieye found a secret hideout owned by the Ye Gui Race. It was by chance that he found this ruined world. He was looking through the universe looking for his soul fragments to take back and felt that he should stop by this star as he felt his wife’s soul lingering in this place. Xia Jieye was only half sure that he fell Jing’er’s soul in this place but when he entered this little star what he had found stunned him for a moment. Not only his wife’s soul fragment can be felt in this world but also strong space essences gather in such a place.

There is only one clan in all the realms that would cause such phenomena where space essences gathered in one place. Only that clan who had the blessing of the space could control it. The Hei Clan from Vearth.

Riding his Abyss dragon, Xie Jieye carried his younger brother and openly infiltrated the secret land within the ruined star. As expected they had seen few deities from the Ye Gui Race and of course, Xia Jieye mercilessly massacred them all. Gui Xiajun may be a young god but he had seen his part in murder but the scene of his elder brother reaping the lives of their former race effortlessly and ruthlessly made him speechless. He had been watching his elder brother kill their former clansmen but his face remained cold and detached. As if what he is killing isn’t some living being under his line of sight but mere grasses he could cut off any moment he feels like it.

If not because this brother of his treats him well and humanely, he would have thought that his brother is an Evil God that never cared for the living.

Gui Xiajun murmured, “This Big Brother is crueler and brutal. If System Yang didn’t tell me he is my brother’s other soul I wouldn’t believe it.”

Xia Jieye overheard his foolish younger brother’s words and commented, “If you aren’t related to me by blood I would have longed to feed you to the Abyss Dragon as feed. You are too noisy.”

“Sorry, Big Brother. I will shut up,” said Gui Xiajun.

While the two brothers are conversing they are intentionally ignoring the shrieking woman in a luxurious robe which is now covered in dust and dirt. This woman is quite beautiful by normal standards but for these two who had gotten used to their wife and sister-in-law’s exquisite beauty this lady is not much different from an average-looking noblewoman.

Gui Xiajun held his chin as he felt his thought once he saw that lady’s face, “Hm~ this woman look familiar but I don’t recall where I had seen her before~”

“He had the scent of that stupid father of ours. Must be one of his women,” said Xia Jieye while looking around to sense his wife’s soul presence.

Suddenly getting a eureka moment, Gui XIajun exclaimed and said, “AH! I know now. Brother, capture her. She is the second wife of that old bastard father of ours. He might know where the current hideout is located.”

As soon as Xia Jieye heard that, he controlled the shadows with the land and bound the woman’s limbs, and even gagged her mouth and covered her eyes as he felt annoyed as well. Seeing the result of his brother’s work, Gui Xiajun felt that his brother had bundled the woman too much. She now looks like a masochist who played hardcore bed exercises.

With the corner of his lips twitching, Gui Xiajun commented, “Big Brother, are you a sadist? Do you have the heart to treat sister-in-law like this?”

“Huh? What are you talking about? I don’t treat Jing’er like that unless he asks me, Don’t you know how adventurous and playful your saozi is?” retorted Xia Jieye. “At most we only used toys...”

Gui Xiajun covered his ears, preventing his innocent mind from being corrupted. His brother and his wife are too courageous and dauntless whenever they wanted to do something they considered fun. While the two are exchanging words the shadows under Xia Jieye’s command are massacring the other beings in the vicinity. The background is full of agonizing screams, shrieks of fear, and cries for help but these brothers acted like they couldn’t hear them at all. Well, they are enemies after all. No need for mercy.

“I’m not listening~ ah~,” said Gui Xiajun.

“Idiot. When you find your other half you would understand how we feel. You’re already more than 500 years old but still no girlfriend or boyfriend. Who the hell is going to take good care of you in the future. I’m telling you this ahead of time Zhi Yang is Zhi Yue’s alter ego they would never be apart. Give up~” said Xia Jieye while smirking at his younger brother.

Gui Xiajun pouted, of course, that his elder brother would notice that he had a crush on his nanny system who had been supporting him all these years. But he also knew that his brother Yang already had someone he loved and this was someone he had been with ever since he was born. He couldn’t beat someone like that. Thankfully he only has a crush on him and not feelings of love.

“I know already~ don’t put salt in the wound, big brother!” said Gui Xiajun.

Xia Jieye let his brother hold the other end of the shadow chain that binds the second wife of Ye Mo and looked in the direction where he saw his wife’s soul presence.

“Hold on tight. I found what I am looking for,” said Xia Jieye as he commanded his Abyss Dragon to fly in that certain direction leaving a scene of death and murder behind them.

At the underground prison, the sounds of the prisoners’ revolt were heard by some guards outside the dungeon. Since these prisoners never fought back even once before, the master of the place only placed a few guards to stand at the entrance of the prison. Now that almost a hundred prisoners are revolting they could hardly fight them all back. Thankfully the prisoners were protecting the wounded and children making them a bit more defensive than aggressive.

The guards spoke,

“Are you bastards trying to escape?! Hah~ in your dreams, he had already called for backup, and all of you would be captured and punished accordingly!”

“How dare you mere bastards and cripples to fight back against our Ye Gui race. Hateful Hei Clan, it would have been better if you chose to serve our leader instead of fighting back!”

“Capture them all! Don’t kill them, the mistress would get angry again if we killed some of them again!”

The prisoners’ response,

“Push them back! Don’t let them go near the princess and the children!”

“Fuck! I can still fight, let me go in front!”

“Shut up! You already have a hole in your stomach. Just fucking rest!”

“Brother, I can also sight beside you!”

“NO! Stand behind the Princess and protect her instead. As long as she is alive we can go home!”

“Fight for the Princess! Fight for freedom!!”

While the chaos in the underground prison was taking place the whole ceiling of the underground prison exploded and turned to dust.

BOOOM!!

Everyone’s attention moved from the open roof and finally saw the sky after all these years. Even the eerie dark sky made the prisoners happy. Now they had the option to escape by flying. But what shocked the hell out of them is the huge flying black dragon in the sky. Xie Jieye’s majestic entrance left everyone stunned in awe and fear. Especially the elders who had seen this familiar face of the God of Void. This Evil God who had hated all living beings except for his brother, Shen Siwang now stood before them.

Looking down with those fierce and cold crimson eyes, almost all of them couldn’t control their bodies and kneeled before the Supreme being.

It was unknown who spoke first but the words that were spoken had told everyone the identity of the Venerable being that stood before them.

“Supreme God of Void... The Evil God, Esteemed Lord Xia Jieye...”
