Chapter 378: 8.103 First Blue Star - Tantrums
Hei Anjing left the world without informing anyone. Though Warden Lou and Prisoner Yun MIng had witnessed him vanishing in thin air, they themselves weren't sure where he had gone too. Thus these two loyal subordinates can only look for their other master, the Lord God. Even if the other boss might not know where Venerable Lord Hei had gone to, System Yue who was connected to his host would surely know.
They had brought back the children to the Feng Mansion. Though the outsider cultivators were all captured by Hei Anjing. a huge crater was still left behind. These children might fall in it and get themselves injured if the Venerable Lord Hei learned about it they would surely get punished. The Venerable Lord had taken a liking to these children.
Meanwhile at the Ancient Temple of the Phoenix Clan...
Zhi Yue who was looking through the Star Network now has a pale and bloodless complexion. He was biting his lower lips and the raging emotion within those violet eyes was enough to show his guilt, regret, and anger towards himself. The sight of his host's fading soul made him panic only when he felt that the soul of Hei Anjing was pulled back in the System Space that he had reluctantly calmed down. He then glances at the slumbering figure of their Lord God. He hated how relaxed this sleeping person is when everything that had happened to Lord Hei is caused by this person. He couldn't wait to see how this person would act knowing that he caused harm to his most precious person once again.
System Yue mumbled, "I need to prepare a few things lest the Lord God go mad and destroy this world his host had tried his hardest to save. If that happens then Lord Hei would definitely get angry for real and this Lord God would suffer more than what is already expected. I need to digest the memories A'Yang had given me. The faster I remember what was hidden from us, the easier it would be for us to take action."
But before he could meditate, Warden Lou and Prisoner Yun Ming's Vessels arrived. Someone was leading them to the temple and saw that it was Xue Xia.
Xue Xia's eyes were obviously bloodshot as he had just finished crying. But after learning that Major General Drake and Feng Wu were like Feng Jing and the Marshal, they lead them the way to the Ancestral Temple where Ye Xiajie is.
"Please follow forward. They should be here."
At the central area of the temple, they saw Zhi Yue in his human form protecting the slumbering Lord God. After seeing Zhi Yue, Xue Xia had also excused himself and taken his leave.
Major General Drake asked, "Milord!?"
"Don't wake him up. He seems to be doing something in his soul domain," said Feng Wu to his lover before walking towards Zhi Yue and asked, "System Yue, we had seen Venerable Lord Hei's disappearing. Would you please check where he is right now?"
Zhi Yue nods his head and checks on his soul connection with his host. He saw that his host had returned to the Nether System's space to rest. His other boss, Lord An Liang, and his lover Hei Jue arrived and helped his host to stabilize his soul.
"The Host had returned to the Space ahead of time. Lord An is there to serve him. I do not know his current condition but... He had arrived safely." answered Zhi Yue.
Then he saw the two glance at the sleeping Lord God.
"We have met the Lord God's younger brother, Sir Gui Xiajun. He had passed something to the Lord. He is now digesting those things and would take a while to wake up." said Zhi Yue.
Feng Wu said, "I would like to return to the Nether System ahead of time. Since Lord Hei had already left this world my mission was deemed complete."
Zhi Yue hesitated for a while. Due to Yun Ming's identity as a prisoner, he should be not allowed to return to the system on his own but there is no way Warden Lou would leave this world before his Lord had wakened up but at the same time, Zhi Yue is worried that there would be no one to serve his host while he is here.
"Okay. I will transfer you back. Please serve the host while I'm not around." said Zhi Yue as he agreed to Yun Ming's request.
Pulling out Yun Ming's soul from the vessel of Feng Wu, he had transferred it back to the Nether System's space. Feng Wu's vessel turned to ash as soon as the soul had left.
Yun Ming replies, "I will." then his soul was pulled from the current world.
The only ones left at the temple are the sleeping Lord God, Zhi Yue, and Warden Lou using the vessel of Major General Drake.
Taking a seat beside the frustrated Zhi Yue, the warden asked. "So what happened for the Venerable Lord to lose his vessel early in this world? What did our Lord God do again this time?"
Zhi Yue frowned whenever that situation was mentioned. He could only click his in annoyance.
"Don't mention it. Just thinking about it pisses me off," said Zhi Yue.
Warden Lou spoke, "You don't know how scary it is to be in front of the Venerable Lord's presence in his real form. Even though his aura had lessened as he didn't have a vessel. It almost took my life with just his presence alone. Who would expect he looks like that in reality. He doesn't have any ounce of human traits at all. He looks like a borne God!"
"Lord Hei is a borne God. Didn't you know? Before was born his bloodline was directly taken from the Ruler God Lord Mo. Though Lord Yue and Lord Sian were his parents, the source of his power was something given to him by the Ruler Gods couple." explained Zhi Yue. "In the first place, Mo had human and God forms. Their level of strength in those forms differs from one another. We are just too used to the Host's human form."
"I see. So what happened to the Lord then?" asked Warden Lou.
Zhi Yue answered, "A guy called Gui Xiajun who seems to be Milord's younger brother sent a message to me with his system. He is working as an agent to clean up spies at the System World. He was here because someone from Ye Gui appeared in this world. Clearly, their target is the Lord God.
He wanted to meet the Lord in the Ancient Temple but to enter this place you either need a guide from the Fengs or be connected to one of their direct descendants and die to enter rebirth. The Lord chose the latter and died in front of Lord Hei as happened after you've seen it yourself."
A serious expression appeared on the Warden's face and said, "Seen it. The Venerable Lord had gone mad enough to release his God from instantly destroying his mortal vessel in this world. But Ming'er told me that the Venerable Lord seems to have some kind of trauma."
With a dark face, Zhi Yue responded, "I think it wasn't just one trauma but two at least."
He could still remember his host going insane in madness in that third world where one of the protagonists wanted to rape him. At that time if not for the Lord God appearing on time, the host would most likely torture that idiot to death.
"Sigh~ just when will the Lord wake up. His wife had already run away from anger~" said the Warden.
Zhi Yue commented, "We will have a hard time looking for Lord Hei in the next work if he really wants to hide and run. Anyway, it's Milord who will not suffer much from our problem."
"Indeed~" responded Warden Lou.

Meanwhile at the Nether System's Space...
Hei Anjing was directly pulled out from the world the moment he finished capturing the souls of Ye Tianyu and his minions. He is in his soul form when he comes back and bumps into his cousin Hei Jue and his cousin's husband, An Liang.
They look so worried seeing Hei Anjing's current soul state. It faded to the point they could see through him. These two who knew the backstory of the whole picture could only frown but did dare to comment.
Hei Jue scolded his cousin, "Jing'er! Why did you release your God Form!? Your soul was just stabilized by Uncles, now it was also overused. Do you want that blind fool to notice that you are a mere soul fragment as well!?"
"Stop shouting Jue-ge. Both my ears and head are ringing with your nagging. Ugh~" complains Hei Anjing.
A Liang stares at him worriedly at the same time a bit angry. "An, your soul right now is too weak. In the next world, it might be impossible to retain your memories and this time orders from Master Yue. I will seal part of your special skills, especially the ones using qi."
"Okay. I don't mind. Memories would return once my soul stabilized anyway," said Hei Anjing.
"You are really... Do you not want to rest in your original body first before leaving again?" asked An Liang.
"No. My immortal body is used to maintain the life of Ye Xiajie's vessel while its soul core isn't fully repaired yet. If I entered it the soul core would return to me as the owner of it. Unless A'Xia returns in his real body first then I won't do that." said Hei Anjing.
Hei Jue spoke, "Let me warn you, Jing'er. The soul fragment you have now at this moment is the weakest already among the rest which is collecting world energy for you. Sooner or later this fragment would disappear as long as it doesn't return to its body. Even though it's your dominant immortal soul it would still weaken. You have to return to your body soon."
"I will return but not right now. A'Xia is still missing four more soul fragments before he could condense his own soul core," said Hei Anjing.
Seeing that they couldn't convince Hei Anjing to return to his body even temporarily, Hei Jue and An Liang could only give up.
Sighing An Liang spoke, "Fine. We wouldn't force you anymore. But at your current state you cannot stay in this space for too long.. Choose among these stars which you want to enter next..." He said as he controlled four stars to hover around Hei Anjing.
Among the four remaining stars, there is one blue star which is a D-ranked world, two green stars which are C-ranked, and one violet which is B ranked. Hei Anjing picked the last blue star and D ranked world. It is the world that is closer to the original Earth, a modern world setting but with supernatural phenomena.
Hei Anjing who was holding a blue star said, "Since my soul is injured, it's okay to choose the lowest-ranked star among the rest."
"Don't worry I have these stars checked. Except for this B ranked star the other worlds had no flows of destroyers in them. I've also restricted entries for these four stars. The only ones who can enter are those with authority as elders in the God System or a Fiend with the strength of a Demon God. Those at that rank would be completely restricted by the divine laws at the lower worlds as they don't have full authority of administration like you do." said Hei Jue.
Hei Anjing looked at his elder cousin's brother and remembered those traitors and Ye Tianyu that were captured by him in the last world. He passed to the couple two soul prison crystals one with Hellfire and the other with eternal ice.
An Liang and Hei Jue were stunned seeing some familiar faces inside the soul prison crystals, especially Hei Jue who was already glaring at his former clansmen inside covered in snow and ice.
"These bastards had indeed allied themselves with the Ye Gui hah?" said Hei Jue.
An Liang was more surprised to see Ye Tianyu, the tyranny of this person had even reached the Nether System and most newly admitted prisoners had been caused by this person.
"Ye Tianyu isn't this the one instigating low-level world hoppers to do illegal things? Good thing you caught him. Those prisoners had been giving me headaches by screaming that the prince of the Ye Gui race is backing them up. Give this one to me, I will make use of him well" said An Liang with an evil smirk on his face.
Hei Anjing spoke, "All yours just don't let them escape. But even if they do the curse of blood I've put on them will explode and they will perish. I'm going now..."
"Are you not going to wait for Xiaxia?" asked An Liang.
Hei Anjing paused for a moment but didn't turn around. He swings his fist and punches a space before him which cracks instantly making An Liang flinch.
BANG! Cracks~
Hei Anjing said, "Who cares about that idiot!? Hmp!" Then he squeezed the star and got pulled in without saying a thing. His soul disappeared from the system.
An Liang who was slightly frightened said to his wife, "Dear, did I say something wrong?"
"No, but... It seems they are quarreling," answered Hei Jue and waves his hands to repair the space fragments left behind by Hei Anjing throwing tantrums.
An Liang said, "Then it is Xiaxia's fault. It's better not to get involved."
After all, whenever Hei Anjing gets angry the person who angered him would either be killed or erased on the spot but only Ye Xiajie is able to make the God of Destruction fall in rage but still lives. Moreover every time Hei Anjing was angry at Ye Xiajie instead of killing the man he throws tantrums and the latter could only suffer from it.
"Hm... I'm going back to the Clan for a bit," said Hei Jue while staring coldly at the traitors in his hands. He must let everyone see what happens when they betray the Hei and Mo Clan.
Seeing the cold glint within his wife's eyes, An Liang knew that blood would flow from the Hei Clan again. He could only sigh that these people are so greedy that they don't even want their lives anymore.
"Come back soon, Jue'er." said An Liang who kissed his wife's hand.
Hei Jue smiled and pecked his husband's lips before disappearing in a space crack he made himself.
"I will return soon, sweetheart," said Hei Jue.
