Chapter 596: 11.122 First Green Star - Punishment World: 'Purgatory' (19)
"I understand. I will do it, Grandfather," said Ye Xiajie.
This is the first time he called Hei Mo grandfather. As Hei Anjing's Husband, all of his wife's elders would be his elders regardless of their past relations.h.i.+p. This is why no matter how much he hated Mo Baojun he wouldn't think of killing him like before but cursing him openly would be normal.
Hei Mo was stunned for a moment. Upon hearing this ruthless Evil G.o.d who only does things for his own ego lowered himself to call a mere Celestial G.o.d-like. Hom shows how much he loves his grandson.
'No wonder that Tyrant accepted this b.a.s.t.a.r.d. So it wasn't just because his husband was begging him to accept their relations.h.i.+p but because these two truly love each other to the extent even I couldn't see through it. With this, I should be able to see Yan'er with a smile, though I am a bit reluctant that I wasn't able to see my youngest son, my eldest grandson, and apologize to my daughter-in-law.' Thoughts of Hei Mo.
He looked at Hei Anjing whose face looked like he wanted to cry. His eyebrows were slightly frowning as if trying to hold back any emotions to show on his face. The corner of his eyes was red and he looked so delicate and pitiful. Hei Mo felt that the cold and expressionless Hei Anjing in the past who used to frown every time he talked coldly at him and the Hei Anjing who can express his emotions before him look a bit similar at this moment.
Hei Mo's thoughts, 'Ah! So those frowns from before aren't because he is impatient while talking with me but because I treated him so coldly that he was sad. If only I knew from the start... Things wouldn't have to end this way...'
The Old G.o.d reached and put his hands towards Hei Anjing while smiling, "Can I hug you, Jing'er?"
Hei Anjing nods and went to hug his grandfather and started bawling which is rare. This was the first time Hei Mo had seen Hei Anjing cry.
Hei Anjing said while crying, "Grandpa~ Boohoo~"
Ye Xiajie who always starts panicking whenever he sees his wife cry couldn't help but hug him as well. It ended with Hei Anjing hugging his grandfather, Ye Xiajie hugging his wife, and Old Man Hei Mo hugging the sticky couple.
Hei Mo with a dark face pushed away the clinging man hugging his grandson.
"Oi~ let go."
Snort* "No. I'm hugging my wife."
"You let go. Jing'er is getting squeezed between us!"
Ye Xiajie who tightly hugged his wife but his arms were still wrapped around Hei Anjing's waist and gave Hei Mo a look. The p.i.s.sed old man couldn't help but grab Ye Xiajie's hair-tearing this man away from his grandson.
"You d.a.m.n brat. This old man told you to let go," said Hei Mo.
Hiss~
Ye Xiajie's ignoring the pain in his head, hug his wife with one arm, and pulled the old man's beard with another.
"Old man, stop hugging my wife, or will pull your beard bald!"
The two childish men were trying to pull each other away and didn't notice Hei Anjing laughing in between them. Without them knowing Hei Anjing had pa.s.sed a blessing of immortality on his grandfather. One that didn't last for a day but a hundred years. His face started to pale as he overused his abilities as G.o.d. At his current cultivation, immortality for hundreds of years is the most he could bestow on someone. He did it secretly without the one receiving the immortality to notice or someone to notice him casting it.
Hei Anjing said, "Stop fighting like children. I can't breathe."
"Okay~," said Ye Xiajie and Hei Mo.
After the three all separated, Hei Mo pats his grandson's head and then looks at Ye Xiajie with a serious expression on his face.
Hei Mo said, "Do it, brat."
"I'll do it, old Man. I will do it instantly and painlessly," said Ye Xiajie as he brought a black sword out of nowhere and was prepared to stab the Old G.o.d through his heart. This is his main weapon, the G.o.d Slaying sword.
But before Ye Xiajie could stab the heart of Hei Mo, Hei Anjing grabs the G.o.d Slaying Sword, his palms were cut and starts bleeding from the cut on his hand. Both Hei Mo and Ye Xiajie were shocked by such a scene.
Hiss!
Hei Anjing, "Owie~ (QwQ)"
Hei Mo and Ye Xiajie call, "JING'ER!?"
"What are you doing, you child!?" scolded Hei Mo as he inspect the cut on Hei Anjing's palm. It looks quite bad as the sword of the Lord G.o.d of Nether is something that could even kill G.o.ds.
Worried Ye Xiajie, "Baby!? Let me see your hand? I'll heal it!" he said while casting a healing spell on his wife.
Once the wound was fully healed, the person who just grabbed the blade spoke,"Wait for a bit. I want to talk with grandpa for a while more," said Hei Anjing.
Ye Xiajie frowned and said, "Baby, you know we must learn where that b.a.s.t.a.r.d father of mine is hiding."
"I know. But even if grandpa knows the possibility of Ye Mo changing his location is huge. Maybe he already moved places." said Hei Anjing.
"Baby, I know what you want to say but... we cannot waste more time," said Ye Xiajie.
Hei Anjing grips Ye Xiajie's clothes and whimpers, "But he is my grandfather!"
Once Ye Xiajie and Hei Mo heard this, they finally understood. Everyone in Vearth knew how much the Mo Clan treats their family. They would never forgive anyone who dares to harm their own and would do everything to eliminate that being who dares do such a thing.
Ye Xiajie gave up when he heard and looked at Hei Mo.
"Old man, I cannot do what you want," said Ye Xiajie as he hugs his wife.
If the person asking him to stop doing something that would hinder his goal wasn't his wife, he would have gotten that useless person on the spot. But he couldn't do a thing that the one asking is his wife. He could only give up the only clue that could lead the way to Ye Mo.
Hei Moseeing their interaction could only sigh and said, "You're quite a henpecked husband aren't you?"
Almost rolled his eyes at the elder, "I am. So what?" said Ye Xiajie.
"Heh~ nothing it's just funny~ Hm??!!!"
"This!?"
When suddenly both Hei Mo and Ye Xiajie felt a powerful aura of a cultivator coming over to them and they recognized who it was almost instantly. Their faces were both not good as this man's cultivation is higher than both of them.
Hei Mo mumbled in shock, "He reached Immortal G.o.d State already!?"
"He is stronger than me. With my current Celestial G.o.d State I am no match for him," said Ye Xiajie dark-faced, he couldn't believe there would be a day where he was born to be a Supreme Being from birth and would worry about someone being stronger than him and it happens to be his enemy.
On the other hand, Hei Anjing who only possessed a HighG.o.d state couldn't feel what his grandfather and husband is talking about but he knew that this person must be an enemy. His expression turned cold and serious. He was feeling nervous as he is currently too weak to help them. This is the first time, Hei Anjing felt he is a burden. This time even the two systems that were playing dead the whole time reappear from their system s.p.a.ce. They started reporting.
System Yue spoke, [My Lords, he is approaching fast. Let's return to the Nether System!]
[This is Ye Mo's real body. Not just a mere clone this time. Master, we need to go back now!] said, System Yang.
Hei Anjing was looking at his grandfather, reluctant to the part he knew that if he left him here his grandfather would be killed by Ye Mo.
"G-Grandpa... L-Let me move this whole s.p.a.ce to Netherworld," said Hei Anjing.
This time no one agreed to his words including his grandfather and husband.
Hei Mo, Ye Xiajie, and the two Systems said, "NO!"
"I will not leave you here!" said Hei Anjing to Hei Mo.
Hei Mo spoke, "Jing'er, please listen to grandpa. Go back, Okay?"
"Baby, listen to the old man," said Ye Xiajie.
"I will not leave!" said Hei Anjing.
System Yue, [Oh my G.o.d~]
[He's here.] said, System Yue.
WHOOSHED!
BANG!
CRACKLES~
They suddenly heard the sound of something cracking. Hei Mo hid the couple behind him while Ye Xiajie hid his wife, Hei Anjing, behind him. The two completely block the sight of the new person enabling him from seeing Hei Anjing.
The man who arrived is in a black and red robe for cultivators. His hair and eyes were black as charcoal. His features were fierce, cold, and arrogant as he looked at Hei Mo and the other two people behind him. This man looks 40 to 60 percent similar to Ye Xiajie's face yet looks more mature when it comes to looks. It was Ye Mo, the father of Ye Xiajie in Vearth.
Ye Mo's eyes wandered around the place. He wasn't surprised to see Hei Mo here as this is a domain that he used to imprison this annoying old man. His eyes glow in cl.u.s.ters when he sees the two men Hei Mo is trying to hide behind him.
With an evil smirk on his face, he looked at this b.a.s.t.a.r.d son of him who happens to become the reincarnation of the G.o.d of Void. The creator of their race and someone he hates the most aside from the Mo Clan.
Ye Mo spoke, his voice was sarcastic and egoistic. "Well~ what do we have here? If it's not my b.a.s.t.a.r.d son and his hateful wife. Your soul is about to be completed. Should I congratulate you, my son? Or should I call you the Creator instead?"
"How about you can me, grandpa? Boy~ I'm older than you by a few millennia," said Ye Xiajie
Ye Mo bowed a bit as if greeting someone respectfully yet his expression shows otherwise. He is treating Ye Xiajie with contempt.
"I will have to decline~," said Ye Mo
He then spotted Hei Anjing looking at him coldly but when he noticed his weakened state he could not help but laugh loudly.
Hahaha~
Ye Mo appeared in front of them out of nowhere. He restrained the movements of Hei Mo and Ye Xiajie and grabbed Hei Anjing.
Hei Anjing's current cultivation is a few levels weaker than that of Ye Mo and at this moment this man had grabbed him by his neck unable to break free. Looking at Hei Anjing's pained expression Ye Mo couldn't stop the bubbling feeling of excitement deep within his soul.
"This is amazing~ To think I would see you looking this weak~..." said Ye Mo.
Hei Anjing was struggling as he glared at Ye Mo as proud as before. As if death itself was something this person would never be afraid of.
"Let. Me. Go!" said Hei Anjing.
Ye Mo lost his smile seeing this. He was rubbing the corner of Hei Anjing's eyes as if he wasn't satisfied with someone.
Ye Mo unhappily said while looking at Hei Anjing's silver eyes. In Hei Anjing's anger, the shade of his eyes turned almost white yet glittered with a bit darker shade. Yes, the same color as the moonlight.
"No, not this color. Return it to deep blue. It would be better if it's a lighter shade of blue." said Ye Mo.
Ye Xiajie and Hei Mo were confused by Ye Mo's words. Why would he like to see his original eye color of Mo in their other form? Right now, Hei Anjing, despite being in a human form, had changed eye color since his emotions were fluctuating badly. Only Hei Anjing knew what Ye Mo was talking about. The only person in his Mo family with a lighter shade of eye color is his uncle, Mo Baojun.
Terrified by the thought, Hei Anjing stared back at Ye Mo in disbelief and said, "Y-You... Do you like Uncle Bao~... Argh~"
Hei Anjing was unable to complete his words as the hand gripping his neck tightens and Ye Mo is now looking at Hei Anjing as if seeing a dead man.
The latter could feel the grip on his neck getting stronger. The tighter the hold on his neck is the harder it is for him to breathe.
'I can't breathe~' Thoughts of Hei Anjing.
System Yang finally used his special option to protect his master. He materialized in his human form.
System Yang spoke, [Activating emergency mode! Transformation complete.
Scanning the opponent's cultivation stage. Scanning finished.
Enemy's Cultivation Stage: Refining Immortal Realm.
Now adjusting cultivation to match the enemy's strength.
Cultivation stage upgrades from Mythical to Immortal successfully.
Now initiating the main mission. Elimination of the Host's enemy.]
Everyone was surprised except Ye Xiajie to witness System Yang instantly upgrade himself to the same level of strength as Ye Mo.
System Yue watched as his alter ego, Zhi Yang, upgraded before him. The aura emitting from him right now isn't only stronger than what the Lord G.o.d currently possesses. It is also more similar to the strength of Ye Mo before them.
Zhi Yang's features and clothing remained the same. The only difference is that aside from the power of the sun, there are swirls of darkness coming from him. This darkness feels the same as the one the Lord G.o.d wields but much purer and scarier. This is a remnant of the G.o.d of Void's Supreme Aura from when he was still Xia Jieye. The absolute darkness element he left behind in Zhi Yue's system to protect his wife, Hei Anjing.
System Yue mumbled, [What is this? It feels similar to Lord G.o.d Ye's darkness element.]
Ye Xiajie smirked and said, "Of course it is familiar. That is the sword intent I personally left in Zhi Yang before I gave him to Jing'er. That's a wisp of my original power."
