Chapter 687
Chapter 736: 14.12 Last Violet Star Ghosts of Underworld
After introducing each other to one another. Their conversation continues now that the situation has been currently controlled.
Hei Anjing looked at the female ghost and said, You had fulfilled our tasks well. You may now enter to descend for your reincarnation.
Jin Sang or he is now called Du Sang as his mother introduced him, suddenly spoke up. He was calling for his mother.
Mom?
Mother Du glanced at her son and then smiled gently at him. Seeing him safe was something she wishes for even at the end of her life. But she knew that her son had suffered under the Du Family due to her illegitimate standing. This is why she couldnt forever remember the Du Family for all the suffering her child had experienced.
Hei Anjing pa.s.sed a teardrop-shaped necklace to Mother Du. Unexpectedly, for a ghost-like Mother Du, she was able to hold on to the necklace shocking the children in the crowd.
Say your goodbyes. The living and the dead cannot be happy. I give you 10 minutes to say your goodbyes to your son. I will open the door to the underworld where you shall meet someone who will help you, said Hei Anjing.
.....???e????el. c??
Thank you... Thank you, Your Highness King Wuan.
Mother Du kneeled on the ground and kowtowed to Hei Anjing who did not even turn back to stop her from doing so. Du Sang leaned down to hug his mother while crying. This time he was able to hug her. The mother and child cry as they finally get to hug each other after getting separated by death.
Child, listen to mom.
Um! I will listen to my mother!
Can you promise Mom not to use resentment qi all the time and learn how to use a normal qi instead?
But my golden core (Jindan) is broken... I am not able to cultivate the normal way. Moreover, there is not even a way to heal this kind of injury.
This...
Mother Du glances in Hei Anjings direction and is a bit hesitant to speak. She suddenly lowered her head to the ground pleading with Hei Anjing to cure her son. She had heard a lot of rumors in both the mortal and underworld realms. It was said that the strongest immortal after the Immortal Emperor of the heavens is the G.o.d of Punishment, King Wuan.
Ghost Mother Du begs, Your highness! This humble mortal begs to heal her son from the resentment and broken Jindan.
King Wuan is well-known for his impartiality and ruthlessness. A lot of G.o.ds and G.o.ddesses both feared and idolized him. There are also rumors that his medical skills were divine. He heals the sinners and lets them experience all torture with healed vessels making them suffer another set of punishments until their time was up.
Hei Anjing who just finished summoning the gates of the underworld suddenly turned around and looked at them. His face is expressionless and even looks cold. This is because his handsome face is devoid of emotion. But the young disciples and the mother ghost could only see his phoenix-shaped eyes. Even then those silver eyes were like glaciers piercing through their souls.
This king indeed can heal that one but... Why should this king help you? asked Hei Anjing.
His words sound sarcastic and paired with his cold eyes it looks like he is looking down on them. But only those who know them well can realize that he is indeed just asking for a reason. It is very easy for a G.o.d like him to change a mortals destiny but for him they are strangers why would he help them? This left him confused.
Mother Du, Du Sang, Yun Fan, and the rest of the disciples were quiet. They did not know how to reply or answer this powerful seniors question.
It was Yun Anjie who spoke up and said, Senior Hei... You seem impartial yet righteous. What can be exchanged for a senior to make a move and abide by Aunt Dus request?
Hm... There is a way. But the mother had to pay. It was easy to change the fate of a mortal but it involves karma. This boy had been born under the star of misfortune. He is destined to become your enemy in the future. But are you two willing? One had to suffer the consequences of being bestowed by karma or changing fate and the other would lose his opportunity. Make your choice. It will depend on your answer about how this child will live, explained Hei Anjing.
Mother Du spoke without hesitation, Your Highness, I agree! This humble one is willing to bear her sons karma for him!
Mom, No!! said Du Sang.
Hei Anjing just nods his head at the Ghost of Mother Du. Then he moves his eyes from her to Yun Anjie.
What about you? he asked.
Yun Anjie spoke, Would that opportunity involve the lives of other people?
No and Yes. Regardless if this boy becomes your enemy in the future, what is destined to happen will happen, answered Hei Anjing.
Yun Anjie asked, Is it possible for the senior to tell me what is going to happen in the future?
War of all Realms.
What!!!?
Everyone exclaimed, theyd never expected such an answer. It is something that involves the three realms: Infernal Realm, Mortal Realm, and the Heavenly Realm.
Yun Anjie asked, Senior Hei, what do you mean?
The secrets of the world cannot be told. Thats all I can say to you. Instead of worrying about that, it is better to decide whether you agree to save this boy named Du Sang or not? said Hei Anjing.
Yun Anjie spoke, Senior Hei, I agree. If he is able to cultivate normally than with demonic cultivation, it would be easier to bring him into our sect. Plus, opportunities are random, they might be more in the future.
Theres a smile on his face as he didnt really care about something that hasnt happened at all yet. Yun Anjie cares more about the present than the questionable future he had no idea of. Moreover, Yun Fan seems to be fond of Du Sang and the latter had saved their lives just now.
Yun Anjies thoughts, Du Sang helped us escape the mansion and save our lives. I dont like being indebted to someone. With this, I owe him nothing.
Hei Anjing, as if he could hear his thoughts, commented, It is good to worry about debts and not want to have one. Good mindset.
AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!
He only waves his hands as a few ice needles pierced the blocked meridians and the broken golden core (Jindan) of Du Sang. Du Sang couldnt help but scream in pain and could feel thousands of ants gnawing on his meridians and Jindan.
Hei Anjing said, Bear the pain. The process of unblocking the meridians and rebuilding the Jindan is extremely painful. It was the feeling of forcefully digging out and widening holes in your body as well as the endless itchiness of feeling something growing back. It would last for half an hour. As long as he is able to bear with it, he will be able to cultivate normally.
The explanation of Hei Anjing was simple and calm but paired with Du Sangs painful cries his cold voice seems like a demons voice lingering in their ears.
Yun Fan helped Du Sang up and let him lean on him while holding his hands, preventing the latter from causing self-harm on his body.
Bear it. It will be gone soon. Its not pain, you are just imagining it. Du Sang listened to my voice. Listen to my voice, said Yun Fan.
Du Sang with his face covered in tears looks at Yun Fans blurry figure. He could see the latters worrying face and his mothers panicking expression. He hides his face on Yun Fans shoulder while trembling non-stop as he bears the pain in his meridians and golden core. He held both his mothers and Yun Fans hands with his two hands.
After an hour Du Sang finally fainted, and a scarlet qi came out of his body which Hei Anjing took control of.
Hei Anjing said, The young disciple holding him. Give a bit of your qi in his body it would help his body to regain a bit of strength.
Yes!
Yun Fan did what he was asked to and gave a bit of his qi to Du Sang. Suddenly the latters body glows with a bit of blue qi and Du Sang slowly regains consciousness.
Groans~
Hm? Im still... alive? mumbled Du Sang still half asleep.
Yun Fan said, Congratulations! You are now a cultivator once again!
{My son, congratulations! It was hard on you. Mom had a gift. Keep this well. It would protect you from the fierce corpses.}
The ghost of Mother Du placed a tear-shaped necklace on her son. She had left a bit of her imprint wanting to watch her sons future even as a mere soul imprint and protect him from danger. Hei Anjing turned a blind eye to this. It was her choice to reincarnate with a piece of her soul missing, so she would bear the consequences herself. He doesnt care at all what would happen to her after she reincarnates.
Feeling a warm qi revolving in his body, Du Sang smiled. The resentment qi had always been cold and eerie, he would sometimes feel his soul being tainted but the qi running in his body right now feels natural and gave him warmth.
I... I... can cultivate again. Thank you. Thank you. said Du Sang.
Yun Fan smiled, Now you can go to night hunt with us and listen to cla.s.s together. Du Sang no... Sanger lets do our best?
Um. I will. Mom, thank you so much. I will be okay now, said Du Sang with a smile.
His mother kissed his forehead lovingly as she stared at him as if she was the most important being in her world.
{No need for thanks, my darling. Mom has to go now. Listen to your friends okay? Forget about your past. Your father is already dead so do not get involved with that clan anymore. Just live a new life as Du Sang. Promise Mom, you will be happy okay?}
Du Sang smiled at her mother despite his falling tears, Mom, I promise. Please become happy in your next life.
{I will, my darling!}
Suddenly a being wearing all white clothes found only in the underworld appeared beside them. His face is covered with white cloth written on it was the word Impermanence while wearing a tall white hat. He is the white impermanence of the underworld.
The White Impermanence spoke, Its time. You need to go to the underworld or your soul will fade with time.
{Yes, Lord White Impermanence!}
Mother Dus soul flew behind the White Impermanence and they disappeared at the opened door of the underworld not far from where the Black Impermanence was waiting. After a while, these two lords of the underworld bowed their heads in a 90 degrees manner toward Hei Anjing.
Your Highness, King Wuan. We had completed our task! said the Impermanence.
Hei Anjing glanced at them and said, Good work. You may return. Tell them I am okay here.
As you wish. Please enjoy your stay in the mortal world, King Wuan.
The White and Black Impermanence had disappeared in the opened door with Mother Dus soul who was waving at her son until she disappeared inside. Meanwhile, the rest had a glimpse of the scenery in the underworld. The land of ghosts and the dead was not that much different from their world. The only thing that the underworld doesnt have but the world of the living has is the sun. There is no sun in the underworld.
Once the gates close, the portal that connects the land of the living and the land of the dead disappears without a trace leaving the young disciples speechless.
Hei Anjing glanced at the children and didnt know what to do next. While Zhi Yue who was watching the whole scene as a pa.s.serby reappeared a step behind Hei Anjing and whispered.
My Lord. Someone is coming over. It is a cultivator and someone with strength that can be considered strongest in this realm, said Zhi Yue.
Hei Anjing mumbled, Oh... Is that so?
