I LOVE DESTROYING WORLDS' PLOT [BL]
Chapter 1665: 22.51 Third Red Star - BaitingChapter 1665: 22.51 Third Red Star - Baiting
As Ye Xiajie and An Shizhe continue to hunt ancient gods' souls among the humans, their presence is noticed by those they are hunting. Because of this, their targets started hidden, and they could hardly catch one in a day. The reputation of the former General Ye was also greatly affected by his last appearance. After all, no one noticed that the young lady they caught before was one of the unknown beings causing chaos in the land. They treated him no differently than the mermaid king, who forced them to die without the treatment of the little mermaids.
Even though the sea had gotten quieter after its last tsunami, the situation caused by the unknown beings started a series of deaths and homicides in the city. This made the atmosphere in the city tense and quieter. No one wanted to leave their houses unless it was necessary. They would also have to avoid humans who smell bad, like something rotting or the scent of death. Since they are afraid of being taken over and getting their families killed, they rarely come out of their houses.
The Ancient Gods' souls were also now desperate. There aren't enough human souls to nourish theirs. They also need a lot of blood to strengthen their abilities. After all, they are now fierce ghosts well-known for their cruelty. Especially since they are being hunted by the God of Void and the World Eater.
In the General's Mansion…
The World Eater, An Shizhe, had once again stayed over for a meal. Since An Shizhe is around, the only people to eat at the same table as him are Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie, who aren't afraid of him. An Shizhe was so used to this kind of reaction and didn't mind at all. He was delighted that there were two in front of him that showed no hints of fear towards him.
Hei Anjing said, "To come too early on this thing, you haven't caught anything for days, have you?"
The World Eater looked at the God of Void, who responded, shaking his head a bit as if saying he didn't say anything.
The God of Destruction said, "Don't look at A'Xia. He didn't say anything. It's just that there were no changes in your aura these few days. There is a way to catch them. The question is if you are willing to do it."
"I don't agree, Jing'er," said Ye Xiajie.
Hei Anjing said, "I will be alright, my love."
"What are you guys talking about?" The World Eater, An Shizhe, asked.
Ye Xiajie said, "He plans to use himself as bait. He said that the chaotic energy in him would attract those ancient gods' souls into targeting him."
The World Eater was stunned for a moment and understood why the God of Void didn't agree to this plan. This is simply using the God of Destruction as bait. Which is the most useful, as he hasn't shown himself in the crowd for days. Those would have never realized that this mermaid king is a god in a mortal's vessel. Baiting them out is a possibility. Those menaces would definitely not miss such a powerful soul who possessed chaotic energy that was capable of bringing them back to their peak.
After hearing the plan, An Shizhe hesitated. If it were before meeting this child, he would definitely use him as bait if it's that effective. However, it's different now. He didn't want to put this child in danger at all.
"I… also don't agree," said the World Eater.
The God of Destruction sighed and said, "This is the only way to get them all. If we fail, the whole world will flood. Though that itself is not a bad plan, it's annoying to repair a destroyed world. Also, I want to go back. I miss our children. Either the world is destroyed or not. As long as his soul fragments return with us without a fuss, there is no problem. Or I will have to reap his soul out and bring it back with us."
"Brat, your wife is quite scary. Did he just say he would reap Hunluan's soul fragment?" An Shizhe whispered to Ye Xiajie.
The God of Void retorted, "Have you forgotten how he stole my soul from you when we first met? He almost killed you that time."
"Indeed. If not because you're his first priority, that natal weapon of his would be able to injure me badly," said the World Eater. "But do you two have children? How many?"
"Four. Two boys and a twin dragon and a phoenix," said Ye Xiajie as he proudly told the older man about his children.
The World Eater said, "Four and even a princess. You have a nice family. I and Luan'er were supposed to have a child too. But he was taken after being born and… was killed by those damn old bastards. How can they threaten me with the life of my child!"
The two men didn't notice Hei Anjing paused his movements for a moment when he heard about the world eater's child.
Hei Anjing asked, "So, what do you think of my plan? If you are that worried, just protect me. A'Xia can hide in my shadow. The old man can keep your distance. Anyway, there is no other way to catch them all."
"Alright. But you aren't likable in the eyes of the humans as well. How will you expose yourself in the crowd?" The World Eater, An Shizhe, asked.
The God of Destruction said, "I will use my human form. No one has seen it yet in this world."
"What human form?" asked the World Eater.
Before his eyes, Hei Anjjing's silver hair turned black, and his silver became deep sapphire. His vibe changed completely as well. He feels no different from a real mortal. It is just that in this form, Hei Anjing can hardly use his skill that involves divinity.
The World Eater, An Shizhe, observed Hei Anjing before him and said, "Is this your human form? Your clan is strange. How can you have both human form and god form?"
"My Mo Clan is born from the remnant chaos after the said death of Hunluan. But during our birth, not all chaos energy was left in our body. We spread it within the cosmos together with our familiar. Using the remnant chaos energy to nurture the worlds and allow the universe to give birth to more of them. That's why we have a human form when mixing in the lower realm, and god form while in the upper realm," said Hei Anjing.
Ye Xiajie asked, "Is that why you are always not in Vearth before? Because you need to go to the lower realm to balance the world and nurture newly born stars?"
"No. The other members of the Mo family do it, like my aunt and her husband as well as my dads. I'm one of the strongest in the clan. While my uncle stays in Vearth to support the God of Light, I go to the battlefields to clean up the distortions and end the wars. I like it, so I do it," said Hei Anjing. "I only came back when I heard that something had happened to A'Xia."
The God of Void recalls the times when the God of Destruction would always leave Vearth to undertake Executioner's missions on his own. He had taken most jobs to clean up the evil gods and demonic gods that cause imbalance to the worlds in the lower realm. Making him the strongest executioner in Vearth. If not for him, his beloved would have stayed on the fighting endlessly on the frontlines.
Hei Anjing said, "Okay. Let's do it after we eat."
The two men had no other words to convince the God of Destruction and could only protect him as closely as possible. After eating, Warden Yun Ming sent ordinary clothing for his master to wear as he went out. At the gates, before they left, Hei Anjing ordered the two systems to erect the barrier around the territory instead.
"Yue, Yang, handle the barrier after we leave," said Hei Anjing.
The small sun and the tiny moon hovered around the God of Destruction and collectively agreed to the task they were given: [Lord Hei (Master), please leave the mansion to us!]
Hei Anjing warned them as well, "This might be the last. Make preparations to leave the star. I had a feeling that he could no longer wait."
"Master, what about the mortals?" asked Yun Ming.
"Save if they can be saved, but if it would put you in danger, keep your life as the top priority. Do you understand?" The God of Destruction said.
The two wardens and the two systems saluted, "Yes, Lord Hei (Master)!"
It was after saying these words that the three took their leave. As the three reached the main city street, Ye Xiajie hid himself in the shadow of his beloved, while An Shizhe kept his distance and erased his presence.
Ye Xiajie and An Shizhe said to Hei Anjing, "Be careful."
"I will~" said the God of Destruction.
Hei Anjing had a skill of acting. Thus, for him to pretend like a young master among the mortals is normal. His cold demeanor suddenly fades, replacing it with an arrogant and haughty personality. He acted like a bored, good-for-nothing young master who escaped from his house. It was morning, and the marketplace was almost empty with only a few stalls open. People were hurriedly buying and running back to their homes after getting what they wanted. There are more patrols from the knights of the imperial palace and police.
Looking through the open stall with a dissatisfied look, Hei Anjing mumbles, "What the hell is this marketplace? Why does it look like a ghost town? Tsk! I escaped home for nothing~"
He was looking around for something fun when a beggar approached him. "Young master, can you give me food?"
Hei Anjing glanced at the beggar and looked at him with disdain. He pinched his nose and shouted at the beggar, "What the hell?! A beggar! Tsk! Go away. I don't have anything to give you."
The beggar didn't leave even after being shooed and instead followed after him. More beggars approached due to him looking like a young master who escaped from home.
"Young master, food please~"
"Anything will do~"
"We haven't eaten for long. Young master, please."
Some other people looking like elite people helped the young master and said, "Oi! Stay away from the boy!"
"Tsk! Damn beggar! Don't you know you stink!?"
"Didn't they say that those killers were smelling bad? Maybe it's one of you? Go away!" Hei Anjing shouted.
Before the others noticed, Hei Anjing was surrounded by both the group of beggars and people looking like elite men and women. The police were about to come and break the fight when suddenly an old man wearing an elegant suit grabbed Hei Anjing's wrist.
"Finally, a new vessel~"
"I want that body too!"
"There is a scent of chaos energy inside of him. I want that body!"
Obviously, Hei Anjing had expected this and remained calm about the situation.
"Hehe~ first come, first serve," said the old man holding his wrist.
Hei Anjing said with a mischievous smile, "Finally, all of you come out."
