Chapter 414 - 9.33 Second Blue Star - Ye Gui
Under the bridge, these groups of varying people of all ages had spent the whole afternoon enjoying the conversations with each other. The three brothers who were so worried about their life span had received help from Xie Mo who was coaxed by his wife. He removes the Yin energy in their bodies while Xue Hua gave them a life-nourishing talisman which they bought for a few million including the other kinds of talismans and amulets available. Though half of it was taken by the two Celestial Masters to be auctioned in the Metaphysics Society and planned to give the share to Xue Hua afterward.
Once the sun is about to set, Xie Mo took away his wife under the gaze of the two great masters and the four dumbfounded customers. Even Wen Ya was looking at the young couple with a gentle smile.
Wen Ya said, "They are newlyweds indeed. Cannot help by sticking to one another."
"It's more like the older one was the one who cannot leave his wife," said Master Shen Ling.
Master Xie Ye said, "Never expected for the notorious one to become such a henpecked husband after marriage~"
The curious Su Wan asked, "Great Masters, why do you call that man your majesty? Is he a royalty from some country?"
The two masters received multiple pairs of eyes on them. Clearly, not only Su Wan was interested in Xie Mo's identity. Master Shen Ling just raised his eyebrows and shook his head but didn't speak a word. He couldn't help but look at this group of curious fools who didn't know life from death.
How could the existence of a Ghost King whose strength is even stronger than a God be known to others? If these people knew they would be frightened to death after realizing that they've spent a whole afternoon with Demigods like them and Gods like that couple.
But unlike him, his Dao companion is a mischievous one. There is no way Master Xie Yi would ignore this opportunity to scare this group of idiots. When he turned his head to the side he saw his partner's evil smile as expected.
A grinning Xie Ye whispered, "Are you interested in what that person's identity is?"
Four heads nodded in agreement to Master Xie Ye's words. His smile widens even more after seeing this. His eyes narrowed while his irises were full of mirth.
"Okay. You guys are the ones who wanted to know who he is. It wasn't this old man's fault okay?" said Xie Ye.
Su Wan, "But the Great Masters aren't old men in reality. These old men's faces aren't your real appearance. When I've held that All-Seeing Talisman I've seen that the Great Masters only looks like they were in their twenties ba~"
Wen Ya and Wu Liu who didn't know about this, "Really?" They've asked.
It was Yan Ke who answered, "Yes, the Third Brother is telling the truth."
Master Shen Ling and Master Xie Ye look at each other and temporarily remove the illusion they've used to disguise themselves. When Wen Ya and Wang Liu saw their real and handsome appearance they were both speechless.
Wen Ya said, "I've never expected the Great Masters to be this attractive and young!"
"Kid, even though we look like this, my age is twice your four total age. We just stopped aging after reaching a certain cultivation stage and became a Demigod," said Master Shen Ling.
The four were flabbergasted and looked at these two drop-dead gorgeous men standing in front of them.
Su Wan muttered, "Twice the total of our age means. I'm 25 and my second brother is 28 while my big brother is 30. Mister Wen, how old are you?" he asked.
Wen Ya replied, "42"
Yan Ke, "125. Twice that is..."
Wang Liu, "250 years old!!?? No way!"
Master Yi spoke, "My Ling is younger than me by 50 years. I'm 300 years old ba~"
Wen Ya murmured, "Demigods? Then that young couple? I mean Young Ancestor and Sir Xie Mo are...!!"
"We are not sure about Huahua but his husband is an infamous legend in our world. We can call him his majesty because in the supernatural realm he is known as the Ghost King. If not, why would be able to remove the Yin energy in your bodies with just a single wave of his hand." said Master Xie Yi while grinning at them.
At this moment the four ordinary humans were speechless and silent all the time. It was shocking to know that Demigods, Ghost King, and Gods exist and they've met and spent the whole afternoon with them.
Master Shen Ling grabbed his partner's back collar and opened a rift within the river. It was an unknown portal connected to their house.
"Enough. Time to go home. You guys should also return where you came from." said Shen Ling.
Xie Yi was even waving his hands at them and said, "Don't tell anyone what we are to others okay. If you need help just tell them we're Celestial Masters. It's more believable that way. We might help when we feel like it but most of the time we act as con artists for fun. See you brats~"
Master Shen Ling and Master Xie Yi disappeared within the portal in the river and once they've left the scenery in the area returns to normal. The three brothers and Wen Ya didn't know how they were able to get home. They were dazed by all the truths that were suddenly thrown to their faces.
---
In the Lou Clan's Territory, at the underground basement where Ye Gui resides, just finished having sex with Feng Houye who was now half-dead on the bed. On his skin were traces of wild sex aftermath and drool was leaking in the corner of his lips. Ye Gui who just finished. He glances at the Feng Ancestor lying on the bed without any expression on his face. His crimson eyes were dull and lifeless and his thin lip stretched in a horizontal line.
He wears his robes loosely on his perfectly sculpted body. His wide shoulder blades, those firm chest, eight-pack abs, and strong waist could make females and males drool at sight. His mermaid lines can be found just under his flat stomach where his abs are visible with a sheen of sweat.
TSK!
Without any hesitation, on his movements, he grabbed Feng Houye by his nape and threw him down his bed while he walked towards the river to wash.
Feng Houye who was awakened with pain all over his body and the cold air that touches his skin groggily got up from the ground.
GROANS~ Hiss!
"Argh~ I know that you are a Yaoguai who cannot live without sex to extend your life and strength. Is there even a need for you to throw me down the bed like a piece of trash!?" yelled Feng Houye. The hoarseness of his voice cannot be ignored.
"For a mere source of food, you talk too much. If you don't want to die shut up! Or maybe cutting your tongue would suffice hm~" said Ye Gui.
Flinched! Shivers~
Ye Gui squinted his eyes and stared at Feng Houye with a sharp gaze making the latter flinch in fear. He removes the robes on his body and once again takes a bath. Every time he fed on human desires and lust, he felt disgusted with himself. He could only wash himself by the river multiple times to feel clean.
He is an evil being who cannot exist without pleasure and greed. When he opened his eyes in this world countless memories he didn't know which came from were recorded in his brain. But as long as he existed the meaning of feelings and emotions are something he does not have.
That's right. He is an evil being who feeds on human's negative emotions. He feeds on lust, greed, hatred, and more. If he doesn't take in any of this negative energy he would weaken and eventually disappear. This is the reason for his existence. Unless he reached the threshold to ascend beyond the upper realms he would be able to change his nature.
Whether he wanted to sleep with some or not, the only reason is food. Without it he would never exist, Ye Gui hated this fact but can only live like this. This is why he made sure anyone who had slept with him would die. Feng Houye is a God he wouldn't die so easily by sleeping by him a few times.
And with having sex with a God, he doesn't need to sleep with other every day. One night with Feng Houye would allow him to last for half a month. Normally he needs to feed on two to three mortals every day to keep existing and because they are normal humans his strength didn't increase that much.
So even though he doesn't like doing those things with other people he can only bite the bullet to feed on them. To avoid problems after doing so, he made sure to take away all of their life force and kill them in the end.
He was used to living in this kind of life for hundreds of years, and he also knew the existence of the Ghost King who is like him, a soul fragment of the man called Ye Xiajie. But this Ghost King called Xie Ye is unlike him, he doesn't have any memories of that person but also like his existence is made of emotion that makes it different from him. He is more like a human because he has emotions. He envied him for having something he doesn't have and at the same time the Ghost King envied him for having memories.
He observes the man called Xie Mo in the shadows and sees what are the other differences between the two of them. Until one day some gold-colored souls entered the world. They've taken over the vessels of Lou Hua and Lou Yan who were now known as Xue Brothers.
Xue Hua and Xue Yan are descendants of this greedy clan of Lou. Ye Gui in his weakened state could no longer stay under the sun at some point. He was summoned by Lou Ming to become their ancestor in name. He agreed in an exchange of sacrifices which are human youth. He needs to feed on them after all.
But because he himself is disgusted by his actions, he never appeared in front of Xue Hua regardless of his unknown attraction to the child. He just watched him secretly from the shadows. He thought he needed to get stronger as fast as he could. The stronger he is the more he could stop sleeping with other people to live.
Out of nowhere, the soul fragment called Xie Mo changed. His existence becomes even stronger than before. After watching him multiple times in the shadow, he realized that the soul inside had awakened. It is no longer just a mere Xie Mo existing in the vessel of the Ghost King but instead the original being closer to that man called Xie Mo. He didn't expect the Xue brothers to leave the mansion while he was out observing this awakened Ghost King and never would have thought that Xue Hua would agree to marry him just because he called himself Ye Xiajie.
As a being with no emotions, how could he suddenly have feelings? Then when he understood, it was already too late. The two finally got married. Their union caused him unexplainable grief yet fulfillment
After all, he as a soul fragment is connected to them by soul connection. It was because of this that Ye Gui had asked Lou Ming to increase the sacrifices for him to feed. The stronger he gets the faster he can see his wife. This is the reason he even sleeps with Feng Houye. The stronger he gets the more the dominance that man who called himself Ye Xiajie would have on him. He would be able to live as someone else. Not as a Yaoguai who is called Ye Guo. But someone else....
