Chapter 773
773 14.49 Last Violet Star Main Peak
The dining hall in the main peak of the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect was about to enjoy a large banquet that welcomed all elders and disciples of each peak.
The tables in the hall were arranged for each peak. At the center hall, is a table prepared for the direct descendants of the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect which is the Yun Clan. On this table sits the old sect master of the Sect, Yun Huajie, and the former great elder, Yun Xiayu. If Yun Huaxia is here, he would also be asked to stay at this table.
Chun Hongyun-Juns adopted son, Yun Anjie, also sat here with his elders. As expected, Yun Anjie sat stiffly in his seat. He is afraid of making the elders of the family angry at him.
The old Sect Master noticed the childs movements and smiled at the boy. He accepted this child as his youngest sons adopted child because of two reasons. First is because Yun Xiajie had begged him to accept the boy despite his hateful origin and lastly, is because Bai Wuan in his past life had protected this boy as his own. Sadly, Bai Wuan died before the boy grew up and understood his situation.
After losing his only guardian, Yun Xiajie in the memories of his beloved decided to take the child to his own sect. Changing the boys name and hiding his origins. This is to protect this boy whom his beloved had cared for while still alive. The boy also grew up forgetting what happened to his past and living a life under Yun Xiajies strict discipline. Because of this Yun Anjie grew up into what he is now. A role model and a great leader which the other young disciples trust and respect.
Old Sect Master Yun Huajie said, Dont be stiff, boy. This old man doesnt bite.
Brother... Watch your face. There are elders and disciples with us, reminded Yun Xiayu, the former great elder of the sect.
Yun Anjie felt a bit stunned as he saw a new side of these supreme elders of theirs. The former Sect Master and Great Elder usually wear stern expressions on their faces when the disciples meet them in the hallways or road. There would always be a scene of Yun Fan being scolded by the Supreme Elder, Yun Xiayu, for his sloppiness. This is the first time Yun Anjie saw them look excited and happy like this. He knows that they are like this ever since theyve seen Chun Hongyun-Jun come back with Senior Hei.
Yun Anjie asked politely, Supreme Master, Supreme Elder, do you know about Senior Hei? You seem so excited to meet him.
.....
Um. Of course, we know about AWuan. He is your father. Chun Hongyun-Juns chosen Dao Companion. One that was approved by everyone in our sect answered Old Sect Master Yun.
The former Great Elder Yun said, Its just that something happened in the past and the two werent able to complete their Dao Companions.h.i.+p Ceremony. But almost everyone from the old generation of cultivators knows about these two couples.
Yun Anjie asked with curiosity, Is it true that Senior Hei died once and came back to life as a G.o.d?
Where have you heard about this, Anye? asked Yun Xiayu.
Yun Anjie answered, We heard it. Sect Master Bai hugged Senior Hei on their first meeting and most Seniors who met Senior Hei all say that he came back to life. Is this not true?
Sigh~
Yun Huajie said, Its the truth. You heard about the great cultivator asking to be killed by Yun Jieye after being possessed by the Devil. That is AWuans past life as a mortal. No one knew what happened to him after he died. So his sudden appearance in our world was a surprise itself.
But all those seniors say that Senior Hei couldnt remember them and Senior seems... weird sometimes, last time in the countryside town where we first met we saw Senior Hei almost flying from the sky holding onto his head. He seems to be in so much pain... said Yun Anjie.
Yun Xiayu asked urgently, Is this true?
Yes. Then the second time we saw Senior Hei he somewhat remembered Sect Master Bai making the latter cry as he hugged him. Will Senior Hei remember his past if he continues to stay here? asked Yun Anjie.
Yun Anjies question is that of curiosity but his words alone were enough to cause endless joy to the elders around him. They are happy to learn about the possibility of Hei Anjing remembering his past as Bai Wuan and regaining his memories as a mortal.
Yun Huajie asked worriedly as he remembered what his eldest son said about Hei Anjings expressionless face.
By the way, Anye have you heard anything which caused AWuan... You know, is he really expressionless? He doesnt smirk or laugh or anything.
No. Ever since we met Senior Hei he had always been expressionless. He also speaks less and would speak unless you start a conversation with him. Now that the elders had mentioned it, we had never seen Senior Hei smile much less frown. As if he has no feelings at all, said Yun Anjie.
We asked Chun Hongyun-Juns subordinate, Senior Zhi Yang. He told us that he is also someone who originally served Senior Hei and descended ahead of time to look for a father for Senior Hei. He told us that the reason Senior Hei lost his emotion is because of the curse of his familys bloodline.
What kind of curse? asked Yun Xiayu.
Yun Anjie said, It was said that if a Hei wasnt loved or got separated from the person they love, their feelings would get sealed. The longer it was sealed the more they lost their emotions and ended up looking like a living doll.
Living Doll? mumbled Yun Xiayu.
When suddenly a commotion took place at the entrance of the dining hall when everyone looked in that direction they saw two men holding each others hands. The one in lead was Chun Hongyun-Jun with his usual white robes and red patterned clouds. At this moment Yun Xiajies expression was soft and doting but all of this is only for the person behind him.
Pulled along by him was Hei Anjing. This time he wasnt wearing any veil to hide his face and this was the first time the young disciples had seen his face. His appearance as Bai Wuan and as Hei Anjing is very similar. Its just his presence is not the same as humans. He had an aura of aloofness and holiness giving him an otherworldly presence that isnt found in the realm of mortals.
The others could hardly move away from their eyes on him and they would instinctively feel kneeling before his presence. Adding up his black robes with a snowflake pattern, Hei Anjing looks like an immortal that got lost in the world of humans. Everyone was left stunned by the arrival of Yun Xiajie and Hei Anjing.
The two look like a couple born to be together. Though Chun Hongyun-Juns aura is a bit lacking when standing beside Hei Anjing, no one would say he isnt handsome. It is just that he didnt have the holy presence that Hei Anjing emits as a G.o.d as he is still mortal.
The two stop in front of the center table where Yun Huajie, Yun Xiayu, and Yun Anjie sit.
Yun Xiajie cupped his hands and bowed his head to greet the elders of his family.
Jieye pays respect to father, uncle, and all elders!
Hei Anjing hesitated for a moment. Without his memories, his standing as an immortal stopped him from lowering his head before the mortals but he had already accepted the fact that this man, Yun Xiajie, is his chosen other half. This means this mans family and elders would be his as always. He cupped his hands and followed Yun Xiajie to greet the elders.
Wuan greets father, uncle, and all elders.
When Hei Anjing did this everyone was caught off guard. Yun Huajie and Yun Xiayu immediately walked over to help him raise his head. Even the elders of the other peaks panicked and all stood up wanting to stop Hei Anjing from lowering his head.
The elders all exclaimed, Please stop!
What is Hei Anjings current standing?
He is a G.o.d. An immortal who descended from the Immortal Realm. He would expect him to lower his head to them a mere mortal. This scene scared them to death.
AWuan, there is no need for you to lower your head. You... dont you know your origin? said Yun Xiayu with a bit of a reprimanding tone.
Yun Huajie said, No need to bow, AWuan.
But... I was only copying AXia, said Hei Anjing.
Yun Xiayu said, Jieye, there is no need to bow when you greet us or the elders starting today.
With a serious expression on his face, No. Thats against the rule of the sect, said Yun Xiajie.
Hearing this answer the elders couldnt help but want to hit him. Though it is true that he is just following the rules... Asking someone of Hei Anjings standing to lower his head towards them is weird.
Yun Huajie suggested, How about you dont bow when you are with AWuan? Thats okay right?
No. Against the rules. said the rigid and stern to himself, Yun Xiajie.
This old man is letting you have an exception, okay! said Yun Huajie.
An elder from another peak said, H-How about not bowing to us other elders? We are only Elders of the sect and not blood-related elders of Chun Hongyun-Jun. Please?
The collective thoughts of all elders of the other peaks are, Please dont bow at us. Our hearts cannot take it! Ah~
Old Sect Master Yun and Former Great Elder Yuns thoughts upon hearing the guys of their generation suggested,
Hey! Our hearts almost stopped beating as well, okay!?
Hei Anjing peeks at Yun Xiajie seeking help on what he should do in this situation. Chun Hongyun-Jun was about to sleep off the Sect Rules again when he got glares from all directions and could only swallow the words he was about to say. He stiffly nods his head towards Hei Anjing, leaving the decision to his choice. Before everyone in the sect, especially the elders treated the sects rule as their life doctrine. But now, for the first time, Yun Xiajie felt that the rules of the sect arent as strict as they used to be.
Hei Anjing said, Then I wont bow anymore but outside the Sect, I still will. If I dont pay my respect to my elders properly it would be ill-mannered of me. I hope the elders call me AWuan. Only my subordinates and strangers call me lord. You guys are still elders of AXia so I dont want you guys to treat me so servile.
The elders looked at each other and smiled, they bowed and said, We will do as you wish, AWuan.
Please dont bow as well, said Hei Anjing with a bit of a frown.
Yun Huajie and Yun Xiayu as well as Yun Anjie who was the closest saw it. They were astonished as they were just told that Hei Anjing was expressionless without any change on his face. But now that doesnt seem like it.
Yun Xiayu said, Ohmu, you are frowning... I thought... you cant...
Uncle, Jingers emotions would slowly return. He just started to know how to frown after waking up, explained Yun Xiajie.
Yun Huajie said, Thats good. Good! Hm, take your time child.
Suddenly, a sound of growling can be heard.
Growls~
Everyone was looking around for the sound when it resounded again, this time much louder than the first.
Growls~ growls~
Yun Xiajie asked worriedly, Jinger, are you hungry? Dinner will be served soon.
Everyone finally found out that it was coming from Hei Anjings tummy. Hei Anjing, despite feeling embarra.s.sed, remained expressionless, covering his stomach as he hid behind Yun Xiajie.
Yun Huajie chuckled and said, Okay. Since everyone is hungry, start serving the food right now!
AWuan, sit at this table with us and Jieye, said Yun Xiayu.
As soon as Yun Xiajie and Hei Anjing took a seat, Yun Anijie and the rest all greeted the two who had arrived. Only after all the food was served did the dining hall once again turn quiet. Only the sound of naughty disciples can be heard whispering in the midst of quietness. Everyone was able to enjoy their dinner that night. Afterward, Hei Anjing was officially introduced to the disciples of the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect.f?e????????. c??
Because of Hei Anjings standing and talents, every disciple welcomed his arrival. He was treated as another elder of the same position as Chun Hongyun-Jun.
