856 14.132 Last Violet Star – (Past) Secrets and Schemes.
When Yun Xiajie touched his heart at the scene of his father’s passing, all he felt was a steady beating, yet doubt clouded his thoughts.
‘Why am I unable to feel anything at all in response to this scene? Have I become heartless?’
He wasn’t saddened by the death of a family member like his uncle and older brother was.
He was perplexed as to why he had no sympathy for other individuals. Until he could hear the voice speaking to him in his head.
&123;You wouldn’t feel anything, of course. They were unrelated to us. Only one person could make our hearts throb. Only our other half has the power to influence ourselves. Adjust to it. When Jing’er leaves your side, you’ll know what I meant.&125;
When Yun Xiajie sought to communicate with that voice in his head, he received absolutely no answer. It appeared as though the voice inside of him would only issue him warnings and would only speak when he felt like it. However, most of the time, this voice would be dormant. He wouldn’t sense his connection to that voice becoming stronger until his cultivation reached a higher and stronger level.

Somewhere within the Sect...
Bai Wuan remained in the garden of his younger sister’s home’s courtyard after ensuring that his siblings had fallen asleep. A ceramic tea set was left out for him to use as he sat down at the stone table. The eerie atmosphere that formed when the Underworld’s gates opened vanished. He was aware that the gates to the spirit world had vanished once more.
.....
Bai Wuan sips his tea under the moonlight, which is his only source of illumination.
He murmurs, “Father Yun had departed. With Lao Hei and Xiao Bai escorting him back, no one from the Upper Realm should make things difficult for him. But I need to ascend quickly to ensure he would be securely revived back here. Let’s hope Bai-gege gets my message.”
The Bai-gege Bai Wuan mentioned is his actual biological brother’s Dao Companion, in short, his sister-in-law. The Eldest Immortal Prince and the God of Reincarnation reside in the Heavenly Domain together. They are in control of the war and reincarnation halls.
Once more, Bai Wuan began to cough up blood while acting casually as if there was no discomfort. He felt as though the devil’s spirit was attempting to escape from his body by tearing it apart. Unfortunately, he weakened it with energy contrary to death qi by using his divinity to seal that wicked spirit inside of him. He can visualize Devil Jidu’s spirit screaming in excruciating anguish as he continues to curse in his head.
“So loud... Even if it’s too painful, you can’t escape or die no matter what you do”
&123;You stupid immortal brat! I abhor you! How dare you play such games with the Lord, ah! It hurts so much.&125;
“I would have tormented you slowly and taken my time, making you suffer from the anguish of all your bones shattering one by one and slowly ripping apart your soul asking me to murder you if you were in your own body,” stated Bai Wuan.
Devil Jidu quakes at the mere thought of anything this lunatic has just spoken. Even more vicious than their wicked species, he hasn’t encountered a human being. Although his species liked eating and killing humans like this immortal said they had never subjected them to torture.
&123;Impossible! How are you a God if you think such horrible things? First off, how is it that you still retain human memories while being an immortal? That shouldn’t be tolerated, never!&125;
“If the demon race can sneak into the mortal realm with their souls, how can we immortals not descend with our original memories? Ah! But I assume you couldn’t see me in that far-off future as I am intending to utterly erase not just this soul wisp of yours but also your genuine soul. Hehe~”
&123;You surpass the devil in wickedness! How are you a God if you are so evil?&125;
“Since when did I mention that this king is a nice God? There are not only good gods within the Upper Realms, and this king particularly enjoys tormenting demons like you. Ultimately, you can only serve as this King’s playthings; don’t make me bored.”
&123;This vessel is already decaying, and your divinity is the only thing that can keep it alive. But I’m curious how long you can hold out. Snort!&125;
Bai Wuan retorted, “Long enough to make you suffer, my beloved toy.”
&123;You cretin! You must be in agony, right? Even if you recover, you cannot stay in this body unless you want to die with me since I am killing your body from the inside!&125;
“Heh~ Is that so?~”
Bai Wuan’s vessel is constantly getting destroyed by Devil Jidu from within. He continues to destroy the body from the inside, but it also continues to regenerate constantly. No matter what he tries, he will never be able to kill this man, and he is already on the verge of losing his cool. Bai Wuan’s lips are constantly stained with blood, yet he just wipes them away and acts as if nothing is wrong.
Yun Xiajie had arrived at this point to fetch him up. Anyone who was there can still smell the blood in the courtyard. The Second Young Master Yun even noticed blood dribbling from his lover’s lips, which Bai Wuan carelessly wiped.
Yun Xiajie says, “Jing’er, you... That blood...”
Bai Wuan attempted to alter the topic of their conversation by saying, “Hm, don’t worry. It’s only the devil inside me who is attempting to break free and attempts to destroy this body from the inside. It will heal immediately, don’t worry too much. Did Father Yun depart this realm safely?”
Yun Xiajie approached his lover and cradled him in his arm like a princess, saying, “Yes, he just left.”
Bai Wuan let him take him home without resisting. After all, he has become pretty weary of being on this damaged vessel. He leans toward his lover and can hear his heartbeat. He listened to these heartbeats with his eyes closed as he gradually fell asleep. His yawning caused Yun Xiajie to halt what he was about to ask. Bai Wuan is the one who speaks to him when he is sleeping.
“I made sure someone would look after Father Yun in that location until I ascended, so don’t worry,” Bai Wuan added.
“I’m not worried,” the Second Young Master Yun said, sounding a little detached in his tone.
“I want to attend the Dao Ceremony of my younger siblings, and after that... I aim to ascend.” Regardless, Bai Wuan carried on, “You are going with me right, A’Xia?”
He smiled at his sweetheart this time as he opened his eyes. However, for some reason, Yun Xiajie perceives his remarks as a falsehood. He didn’t press him about it, though, since he was confident that Jing’er wouldn’t say anything he didn’t want to, and that even if someone attempted to force him to talk, he wouldn’t say anything at all even when tortured to death.
Yun Xiajie bent his head to kiss Bai Wuan’s forehead and eyes while gazing at his sweetheart and love.
“Sleep, Jing’er. You haven’t had enough rest since we left the Sect. Don’t worry about the rest; I’ll take care of it,” he said.
Bai Wuan gives his lover a lengthy look before ceasing to speak. He got the impression that Yun Xiajie would accept all he had said even if he stated something now that the man wouldn’t believe or question. Bai Wuan was a little worried about this, yet he had no intention of finding out why.

Outskirts of the Western City...
Jin Baihua, who had successfully fled from the Lan Zhuayun Sect, had knelt on the meadow under him and was coughing blood with a bit of his flesh. His vessel was exerting more qi than it could handle, which caused some serious internal damage. As punishment for repeatedly pushing the boundaries of the vessel in order to escape, he felt an unstoppable anguish spread throughout his body and was a little numbed as if he were paralyzed.
Cough. cough!
“Ah, it hurts... too much. I can’t move... every part of my body... Ugh,” grouses Jin Baihua.
&123;Let me handle things for a while. You can have some time to rest while I repair the vessel.&125; remarked Devil Jidu as he took possession of their body and leaned against a tree while attempting to treat their internal wounds and ailments.
“Are you alright? Didn’t that black sword harm you just now?” Jin Baihua inquired.
&123;Hm... Not to worry. After a short period of sleep, I can heal it. I have to assist you with your wishes before I go to sleep. If the two individuals with whom we battled were present at the Dao Ceremony of the man you admire, then... I’m sorry, but I’m powerless to assist you. Those two youngsters seem to have some connection to the immortals from the Upper Realm, in my opinion.&125;
“I was aware of the two’s backgrounds: one was the second young master of the Lan Zhuayun Sect and the other was a direct pupil of the Bai Lengshui Sect. How could they have a link to the higher realm!?”
Jin Baihua firmly rejected the notion that Devil Fennu had just suggested. He just cannot accept it, in reality. Those two were talented and from loving families from birth. How cruel the world is to him if they even have a connection to the land of the immortals.
&123;Let’s assume that there is no connection between them. But that young man with the silver eyes is not of this world. Did you not notice how he attached my brother’s spirit to his body? That shouldn’t be feasible, and no mortal can accomplish that. He could be an immortal who has reincarnated.&125;
Jin Baihua felt a bit terrified, that’s an immortal something he could never reach in his whole life.
&123;Don’t be afraid. That human child would be gone soon.&125;
“What do you mean?”
&123;There had only ever been one method for killing a devil in possession of a vessel. Why do you suppose a devil might utilize a human vessel to cultivate at the highest level possible in the mortal world? This is due to the fact that as long as we are in the body of a mortal, the devil’s limitations vanish. There is only one method of killing us. This entails killing both the soul and the vessel that we had. As soon as he infuses him with Jidu’s spirit, that silver-eyed youngster intends to leave this world. He wouldn’t pass away after killing his vessel since he is immortal. Only Jidu would perish as a result, because without a vessel like a member of the demon race, an immortal cannot survive in the mortal realm. He would be forced to ascend to the Upper Realm after he killed Jidu.&125;fr𝗲𝚎w𝒆𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵel. c𝗼𝐦
“He will rise to the Upper Realm, why isn’t he pursuing us if he knows about us and you?”
&123;Perhaps Jidu is the lone subject of his mission, in which case I should resume sleeping so that no immortal would be able to see me. I wouldn’t show myself unless I could assist you in achieving your goals or you are in danger. After all, if you die I die as well. However, we must proceed covertly... Do you have any places you’d like to rule?&125;
Jin Baihua considered the best way to start exacting retribution on the Jin Tiangui Sect, which used to hold him in low regard. He ought to start with his own clan, which had never once treated him like a person.
“That damn clan of mine is the greatest option, I know of.”
They returned to the Jin Tiangui Sect to hide within the crowd when Jin Baihua had fully recovered. Nobody could have predicted that this individual would be responsible for Jin Shiyan’s inexplicable demise, for which no one had any idea how he died.
