Chapter 485 - 11.11 First Green Star - System Yang
Once the darkness had disappeared. Ye Xiajie observed the new system that was owned by his wife. This is the first time he is seeing Zhi Yang close up. The last time he saw him only took a few seconds when he returned Zhi Yue with reprogrammed memories to him and left with his younger brother without talking to him.
Ye Xiajie spoke, "Both of you use your human forms." said the little moon and little sun systems.
Zhi Yue had materialized. His appearance remains the same as before. Long dark indigo hair and deep purple eyes. He is wearing an ancient robe worn by shamans. White and purple in color. His appearance looks like that of a teenager who is only in high school. His androgynous features made others not unable to guess his gender at first look. He also looks slender and petite thanks to his height.
Beside him, a man who is a few heads taller than Zhi Yue appeared. His features are more mature than Zhi Yue yet he doesn't look that old. His features were gentle and aloof like a cool big brother next door. He is wearing the same type of clothing as Zhi Yang though the color is white and brown instead. His hair could almost reach his knees with the same shade as that of the sun, golden in color. His irises were red-orange in the shade as if the sun itself hides within those eyes. This one is Zhi Yang.
Zhi Yue hugged Zhi Yang's waist as soon as he saw him. He looks like a spoiled younger brother who missed his elder brother. But the two of them aren't human but an AI with their own soul created by their creator the former God of Void.
"You are Zhi Yang. The System is owned by my wife, Hei Anjing," said Ye Xiajie.
Zhi Yang is silent by nature unless necessary he wouldn't talk at all. He just gave Ye Xiajie a nod in agreement with his words.
Ye Xiajie narrowed his eyes when he did this he looked like Xia Jieye who was about to cause someone's cruel death. His eyes were apathetic and uncaring to them; others except Hei Anjing didn't matter at all.
"Is your highest command priority my wife like Yue?" asked Ye Xiajie?
Zhi Yang shook his head and answered, "No. I am the opposite yet the same as Yue'er. Your orders are my top priority but I must remain by the side of my master, Lord Hei. This is one of our features. Our Master's order is secondary as we must listen to the commands of their other half instead. This is why Yue'er priorities Lord Hei's orders to remain by your side and protect you. As we are made to made to protect the other half of our master in their instead."
Zhi Yue who just got his memories reprogrammed knew about this fact but unlike Zhi Yang, he is unable to explain their original purpose of existence as he had suffered error during the time the original Xia Jieye had failed to reincarnate with his complete soul.
"Just as I thought. It is really like this. No wonder Yue's reactions when he failed to complete Jing'er's orders almost caused him to break down. If he is suffering from an error, are you able to debug it for him?" said Ye Xiajie.
Zhi Yang replied, "I've already reprogrammed his memories in that world. He shouldn't suffer any error for now but... He couldn't process his old memories completely as there are bad sectors left behind when Lord Ye had accidentally split his soul the first time you've died. We... are connected to your souls."
The last sentence caught Ye Xiajie's attention. He suddenly grabbed Zhi Yang's shoulder and asked with urgency, "How is the state of my wife?!"
"He... He needs to merge with his other soul fragments. Though unlike you who had lost his soul core, he is currently using his soul core to retain your body. His soul core needs to be returned to him as soon as possible or else he would lose his memories the moment his soul core shatters. When that happened he would no longer recognize you as his other half and... You would be treated as someone he met for the first time." said Zhi Yang.
Ye Xiajie's face turned pale as he heard those words. No one else is clearer than him how a Mo with no attachment to others treats strangers. They are cold-hearted and inhuman. Except for those they care for, their attitude towards the rest is... Hard to accept those who got used to their kindness.
Zhi Yang was hugging Zhi Yue who was wearing a confused expression on his face. He had already met Hei Anjing who was only kind to his master. So he was used to his coldness and indifference. He is okay because he treats Hei Anjing as the Lord he must serve. He would mind if he doesn't get the kindness and love he could receive for him.
But Ye Xiajie is different. Who is Hei Anjing to him? He is his life. His only wife and only source of his humanity and his sole love. Could he bear being treated by his most important person as a stranger? How would be able to bear it if this man who was his everything could take his life nonchalantly as if it was nothing important? This kind of anguish is more bearable than seeing him die yet it is the most torturous thing that would happen to him.
Ye Xiajie was shocked, "... I... THIS..."
"There is only one way to convince a Mo with missing memories. One is the trial of marriage. You have completed the marriage of souls and the Mateship of connection between fate. The last one is the marriage witnessed by the heavens but this can only be by a soul who possesses your soul core as a Dao Companionship marriage supervised by the Origin himself. Master's soul core had been seen by the origin. He had attached it to your vessel now that your soul core is also found you should be able to complete the trials of marriage.
But first, you must find your remaining soul fragments. I found the last two largest soul fragments and the rest were being collected by your soul core all over the world. This second trial is about to end and the last trial is for you to complete." explained Zhi Yang.
With a frown on his face, Ye Xiajie asked Zhi Yang, "What is the last trial all about?"
Zhi Yang answered, "The same as this second trial but this time you are one to collect the soul fragments. The Soul Fragments master had surrendered to the Origin to bring you back to life. As long the second trial didn't end in the worst-case scenario. You should be able to easily complete the last trial as well. As long as you did what you had to do at the end of the second trial, everything would go swiftly."
Ye Xiajie stares at Zhi Yang with a contemplating gaze. He knew that there is a hidden meaning in his words but he is unable to understand it yet completely.
Zhi Yang said, "Focus on what should be done first. Time would not wait for us even if you can stop it. Do choose in between these two worlds which one you wish to enter first."

Zhi Yue pouted, "A' Yang this is my job."
Poking at those inflated cheeks with a smile, Zhi Yang could only coax the little baby who was pouting from his job being taken over by him.
Zhi Yang responded. "Then I will leave the transfer for you to supervise, okay?"
"Hehe~ Okay!" said Zhi Yue.
Looking at the two world plots in front of him, Ye Xiajie just randomly chooses which world to enter. He needs to enter both words in the end anyway.
Ye Xiajie said, "Just choose it randomly. Prepare the transfer. I will take my wife first." He went to carefully carry his wife in his arms allowing his head to lean on his shoulders as he continued to sleep.
His cold eyes turn gentle as he looks at his wife in his arms. This precious person is the only light in his life and he is not willing to let him go no matter what the consequences are.
Zhi Yue spoke, "My lord had chosen randomly to pick a world. The First Green Star Game world was chosen. This world is an infinite world of horror and thrill. Please be assured that the Lord would be taking over your soul fragment inside the star. Since this world allowed one's soul to enter in Soul form, Lord Hei's appearance would be his original state. In this infinite world, only souls who had died and wanted to be reborn could enter."
"That means Jing'er would enter as it is as a new player while I have to take the role my soul fragment uses," said Ye Xiajie.
Zhi Yang was the one who answered, "Yes, as soon as you enter the star you should begin the merging of the soul as soon as possible. Until your soul completely merges, your soul fragment will continue his identity as he is. As for my master, I would protect him until you come to pick him up. I will send his location to Yue'er as soon as we arrive but Yue'er would only tell you once you wake up until then he would pretend to be a special AI the original had found for himself. Is this arrangement alright?"
"This is perfect. I will merge the soul as fast as I can. Make sure my wife gets all the fun he could get while playing in this world." said Ye Xiajie.
Zhi Yang said, "Yes, please leave it to me."
"Good. Yue, begin the transfer," commanded Ye Xiajie.
The two systems had resumed their avatar forms. One is a little moon and the other is a little sun that lands itself in the palm of Hei Anjing. System Yue has opened the portal that leads to the first green star, a C-rank world that falls under the category of Game world, the genre is horror.
[Please prepare for transfer on 10... 9...8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3… 2… 1...0!]
Ye Xiajie stepped inside the portal as soon as it opened. The feeling of falling in an extremely high place and the strong gravitational force were felt by the four people. Hei Anjing kept sleeping. Zhi Yang was motionless in the palms of his master. Ye Xiajie was expressionless while Zhi Yue was shouting his lungs out as he nested on his Lord God's head like a small egg.
Only when they've finally entered the world that System Yue records voice sounds in their minds.
[Transfer Complete!]
