Chapter 463 - 9.82 Second Blue Star - Reason Of Existence
The whole world had stopped.
Everything inside that planet had stopped moving. Their time had halted and they didn't even know that this happened. Among all of these people, only two beings in that star were exempted from Time Stop. Only the caster, Ye Xiajie, and his soul core, the God of Void, Xia Jieye were unaffected by it.
Ye Xiajie started asking questions.
"I wanted to know what exactly happened during my death." said the Lord God of the Nether System.
Xia Jieye squinted his eyes and silently stared at his teacup as if he was in a daze. He recalled that part of his memory that he had deep in his memories. He had two sets of memories in his mind one is his life as the God of Void and the other is his life as Ye Xiajie. These second memories are exactly what the man in front of him should possess but for some reason, these memories had ended up being his instead.
"You wanted to know exactly what happened before you die, is that it?" asked Xia Jieye.
Ye Xiajie answered, "Yes."
"Haven't you've already seen this part of the memory from Gui Xiajun?"
"His perspective alone isn't enough to tell me everything. I wanted to know everything."
"Sigh. Then I will begin. At that time you and Xiajun had entered the Nether System as normal staff. You worked on completing your task for a few hundred years and finally got promoted as the Lord God by the God of Punishment, Hei Sian. The husband of the first young master of the Mo Family. This man is the little one's father. The reason he accepted you as his disciple is only for two reasons.
First, Siwang my brother had recommended you as he recognized you as my reincarnation yet with an incomplete soul as for the second one... The little one had asked his uncle, that tyrant, Mo Baojun to hide you in the Nether System. As people from the hated race, you guys can be considered as wanted people. When you've bumped into the little one in the God System's main city even though he had no memories of me, he feels that you are connected to him.
The little one's destined other half had been found when he was just one year old. That person is me... Or should I say us? You know the quirks of the Mo Clan don't you?" said Xia Jieye.
Ye Xiajie responded and said, "They can only fall in love once and their chosen other half will remain the same until they've died. This is their strongest attachment yet it is also their most powerful weakness."
"That's right. The Mo is Unique existence like I and Siwang. The origin didn't make them and no one knew how they suddenly appeared. If not because Siwang had noticed that tyrant, no one would have realized the existence of the Mo Family.
Moreover, this family is well known for their cold demeanor and only a few that exist in this world can move them. If not for their weakness, even Siwang wouldn't be able to defeat this family. They have been immortal since birth. The type that would continue to live for eternity unless their weakness is exploited.
The problem of the Ye Race had started with me. I created them to allow my brother Siwang to have fun destroying things. He had that time when he was more rebellious than an 18-year-old boy. The Ye Race is created from all negative energies that could have existed and the core of this is blood.
My second element is blood. Am an overlord of Life and Death before it was passed to Mo Baojun after my death. Blood and Darkness in me signify Life and Death. I use blood as a medium to control the lives of the living and Darkness to control the lives of the dead."
"But I couldn't control the blood element at all," said Ye Xiajie.
"Of course, you can't! Before I died I gave my blood to Jing'er. This allows him to heal himself if he ever gets injured. After all, Holy Elements are useless for a Mo whose body is full of Yin energy. I gave it to him in place of holy element but it seems he used it as a torture ability to torment his enemies. Haha~"
"Stop laughing. If not because you created the Yaoguai Race called Ye. This wouldn't have all happened. Why did you even create that heinous clan?" asked Ye Xiajie.
The laughter of Xia Jieye stopped as soon as Ye Xiajie did such a thing.
"Because before the little one existed I hated the Mo Clan."
"...Why?"
"Because I am Shen Siwang's alter ego. I am the source of darkness while Siwang is the source of light. We are different yet the same. I had always thought that only the two of us would be able to understand each other. But everything had changed when Siwang fell in love with Mo Baojun. I could accept the feeling of his pulling away from me for the sake of Mo and so I had schemed for Mo Baojun's death which... I've successfully achieved."
A startled expression flashed on Ye Xiajie. For all, as he knows in Vearth there are only two supreme beings. The Ruler Gods who possessed the strength of that of true Immortal. Those people are Mo Baojun and Shen Siwang. But his soul core, Xia Jieye, is saying that he had successfully killed Mo Baojun before. He was rendered speechless with this truth.
"But isn't he still alive?"
"He was revived. This is because I and Siwang negotiate with Origin. In exchange for a chance to revive his lover, Mo Baojun. I and Siwang returned our Supreme standing as Origin Gods. Before the Ruler of the origins which is also the God of Light and the Ruler of Life and Death which is also the God of Void or Darkness are the only True Supreme Sovereigns that ever existed. Death doesn't affect us. We are supposed to detach from death and reincarnation and no one is supposed to be able to replace me or Siwang."
"Didn't Ruler God Mo replace you as the new God of Life and Death? Hmm? I see you've died hah? But how would you revive him if he had died? Plus isn't he supposed to be an immortal that no one could kill? With Ruler God Shen with him, it is impossible for Ruler God Mo to die in the first place unless...!!! He killed him?"
"Yes. Siwang killed Mo Baojun. It was me who made it so he would kill his lover in the end. I used Siwang's body to kill his own lover."
"You?! Are they quite trash ha?"
"You should stop saying that. Call me trash means you're calling yourself one."
"Tsk! Thankfully Jing'er didn't hate us for this."
"He wouldn't. He hadn't even been created when all of this happened. When he was born Mo Baojun had been revived for a few hundred years already. Plus this way of revival can only be done by the unique existence like us or the Mo Family. In the first place, we are currently undergoing this Revival Stuff at this moment. Didn't you know we've died?" said Xia Jieye as he gave Ye Xiajie an evil smirk.
Hearing these words the expression on Ye Xiajie had turned serious. Even though lots of people are saying that he is supposed to be dead, he couldn't totally accept this as not even Warden Lou is saying anything about his death. Obviously, except for An Liang and the Mo Family as well as his father, no one else knew that he, the Lord God of Nether System, is dead. Seeing himself talking and breathing right now even he himself didn't believe he is supposed to be a dead person.
The God of Void spoke, "You do not believe you have died ha? Well, you can see yourself alive at this moment after all but..."
All of a sudden any expression on Xia Jieye had faded. There is only coldness and anger within those crimson eyes which Ye Xiajie is looking at.
"The only reason we exist is because of all the sacrifices of Jing'er so I couldn't forgive you for hurting him whether it is intentionally or not. That only thing that stopped our original vessel from dying completely is because... The little one had destroyed his own soul and used his own soul core and vessel to nourish our body.
Lord God Ye Xiajie. This is the truth you wanted to know. The reason we are existing and why your soul fragments haven't faded yet or why we could still exist until now is because... Our life is being extended at the expense of Jing'er. He had to sacrifice his flesh, blood, and soul just to give us an opportunity to live.
You said you wanted to know how you died, right? Ye Mo, your father had given you a life mission. Life mission cannot be declined because a part of your soul is surrendered to the leader of Ye Race ever since you were born. The leader of your race would then give you a life mission. Only this mission had been accomplished that you would receive that soul fragment taken for you.
And your life mission target is Hei Anjing."
Ye Xiajie was dumbfounded. This truth was too shocking for him to bear it. He was so shocked that his eyes had widened as he stared at the God of Void before him.
"I... I... My mission target is my wife?!"
"Yes. Did you really think that you and Xiajun went to Vearth for no reason? Would you approach the God of Punishment and ask him to be his disciple for no reason. Why would you choose to work for the Nether System which is nothing but a prison instead of working in the God System which gave more resources than the former?
You did all these because you wanted to approach your target which is the little one? Are you shocked to know that your existence is a bane that wants to end the life of the person we love the most?
Now, you know why Jing'er didn't want you to know about this fact. Because he never wanted for us to blame ourselves that this current situation is because of us. The little one didn't want you to know that you've only existed because you need to kill him.
Ye Xiajie, the very reason for our existence is to take the life of the man we love the most."
Ye Xiajie murmured, "I... I exist only to kill Jing'er? Are you saying that the reason I died is that I wanted to kill my own wife! Absurd!!!"
"It's the truth. But the reason you died is that you didn't want to kill Jing'er and Ye Mo destroyed your soul fragment. Plus when Ye Mo tried to kill the little one who is the one who protected him and got killed in his instead. Also... About your mother Ye Xiajie, she died as your father used her as a shield when Jing'er finally went crazy after you've died.
Your mother, Gui Luan's death shocked Jing'er and Ye Mo took this as an opportunity to escape. At that time Jing'er had been fatally injured. He was left alone in an inferno while only a few subordinates vowed to protect him but Ye Mo left lots of demons and Ye members in that place. He ordered the death of Hei Anjing. Surrounded by millions of Demons and Yaoguais, Jing'er protected your little brother and the body of you and your mother.
He ignored his injuries and used whatever he had in him just to keep all three of you safe. He watched as his subordinates got eaten before him by the demons. He would also rip some space to throw his subordinates to safety. Xiajun also escaped that way he gave System Yang to his brother but chose to remain on that planet until the end.
He fought for days, to months, to years. He is strong-willed as he waves his death scythe ripping the lives of those demons and Yaoguais without stopping. He keeps fighting and protecting your body until the 100 years when Mo Baojun finally found him."
The God of Void could still see the scene on that day. Ye Xiajie might not remember but in those 100 years that Hei Anjing fought like a demon king protecting the corpse of his lover, Ye Xiajie had accompanied him in his soul form.
At the center of that ruined world of fire and lava. Within that land of flames, a small domain of ice protected your and your mother's body. He had killed a few million demons and Yaoguai filled the inferno with nothing but flesh, blood, and corpses. Only at the center looks like the land of ice, the sole sanctuary in the land of the dead. Sitting at the center is Hei Anjing crying with the blood of tears as he cradles the dead body of his lover. He could only watch as Hei Anjing cries with tears turning it to blood despite that his ethereal beauty complements the hell surrounding him.
The sight was so captivating yet extremely heartbreaking.
