Chapter 797

797 14.73 Last Violet Star Sect Master Jins Secret.

In the city in the East, Jin Tiangui Sect (Gold Heavenly Turtle Sect)

Sect Masters courtyard...

Finally, news of what occurred in Death Valley reached Jin Baihua. He immediately flew to the Valley after hearing them look for any traces. Around the mansion, there are numerous little hills of ashes and a few more undead that escaped Zhi Yangs holy flame.

As he neared the abandoned estate, s.e.xt Master Bai dispatched a few undead. Its inside and exterior were both in complete disrepair, mirroring its three-building exterior. He entered the building and went to the underground prison where Jin s.h.i.+yan was supposed to be held.f?e?????o??. c?m

The remaining undead experiments were exterminated by those from the frontiers on Elder Hou Yis orders, thus the underground prisons interior was unappealing. The areas abundance of filth, rotting flesh, and blood was ignored by Jin Baihua. He came to a standstill in front of the lone, frozen prison. Only one cell, which appears to be the only spot in the underground complex that is clean, is covered in ice. Sadly, the prisoner who was meant to be housed in this cell has already been released.

Sect Master Jins face grew stern. He was aware that Jin s.h.i.+yan had been rescued. If the things he had heard were true, there was only one invader who had control over ice. It cant be Chun Hongyun-Jun, let alone the three of his small students. Then, only that individual could have committed this act.

A mysophobic b.a.s.t.a.r.d who considers everyone beneath him and would disregard those who didnt interest him.

Thats right~, Jin Baihua muses. That devil would surely come for me. Despite his frigid disposition, he would always care for his family and the people his family had cared for. As his brother-in-law, there is no way he would disregard the injustice of his family.

He wanders around the abandoned building and finds the temple that his friend typically forbids him from approaching. He has been inside the temple before and knows that there is a coffin inside that contains a cold corpse of a man. But at this moment the black coffin is empty and shattered and only a few bits of ice heaped up beside it was left behind.

.....

Cao Rumins head was on the ice when Jin Baihua knelt down to inspect it. His friend expressed sadness and deep regret as he pa.s.sed away.

You are such a fool, my friend, Jin Baihua murmured, In the end, you had lost love and perished at his hands. Tsk! I warned you. Those who had the lineage of that demon would never have a change of heart as long as they had decided on someone.

Without showing any emotion, he crashed his friends head with ice in his palms. Slowly, his brown eyes began to turn red, and a blood mist gathered in front of him. Across from him, a devils figure materialized. The appearance of this devil is androgynous. Even though his horns were smaller than Devil Tanlan, his claws were unexpectedly longer than the former. Despite being a man, he has a quite feminine appearance. His sleepy eyes squinted as he cast a glance around the vicinity. The red fan in his palm flutters open as he waves it slowly to himself. Shulan, he is the Devil of Pa.s.sivity (Sloth)

I sense Brother Qingyus soul here, but its gone now. He most certainly pa.s.sed away along with his human. Hah, Im so drowsy. Why did you send me here, Huahua? Have you already picked my vessel? Shulan said.

Jin Baihua explained, Not yet. I havent seen your vessel. I came to see if AMin was still alive but I guess he is already dead. Is Fennu inside me still asleep?

He is a demons vessel, but he wasnt Shulans, Devil of Sloth, permanent vessel. Instead, he stands as Fennu, the Devil of Wraths vessel. He was chosen as Fennus receptacle because of his childhood. Jin Baihua. The Old Sect Master Jins illegitimate son. He was born in a brothel and is the son of a prost.i.tute. Because of his filthy heritage, the old sect master detested him and had always treated him worse than slaves. Despite being Jin s.h.i.+yans half-brother, the latter didnt care about him because he wasnt a brother from the same mother.

In the Jin Clan, Jin Baihuas upbringing was less fortunate than Du Sangs (Yun Xing). Du Sang, a concubines son, at least still has some status in the sect, while Jin Baihua is viewed more like a servant than a young master. He would receive harsh punishment from the Old Master for seemingly innocent mistakes like serving tea in the incorrect cup. Bringing meals late or coming over late when he is sick.

His hatred for the Jin Clan is evident as a result of these experiences. With simply this, it wouldnt be possible to serve as Devil Fennus vessel. But the other cultivators of the great sects likewise despised Jin Baihua, who had already humbled himself inside the Jin Clan.

Being crafty and clever cannot be undone for him because he was born into a clan of merchants.

In order for him to survive, Jin Baihua always considers someones usefulness rather than its sentimentality. Cultivators consider material items to be common objects. Only the Jin Tiangui Sect (Gold Heavenly Turtle Sect), which once worked as a merchant, claims otherwise. They exclusively focus on success and wealth.

Because of this, whenever the alliance came together for a mission, Jin Baihua would always have conflict plans. Even at one point, Lu Yi became enraged with him and referred to him as the son of a prost.i.tute. Even though everyone was aware of Jin Baihuas history and treated him poorly as a result, he detested the moniker. Among all the young masters of this generation, Lu Yi, a young Lord of the Lu Clan, had a prominent position. Since practically everyone in the cultivation circle would be aware of whatever incident he started, Jin Baihuas reputation suffered as a result of this occurrence.

Now openly mocking Jin Baihua are those who previously only spoke behind his back. Even if he offered any suggestions for the objective, no one would pay attention to him. Only the kind-hearted Yun Huaxia would occasionally stand up for him. He is so hopelessly in love with Yun Huaxia because he is the only source of light in his dark life. Jin Baihua viewed Yun Huaxia as his protector and the one person who could accept him despite his background.

However, in his eyes, Yun Huaxia only loves Bai Qiyin. Only because Jin Baihua was a young man of the same age as his younger brother, Yun Xiajie, did he show Jin Baihua some decency. He didnt feel anything else for this man.

Although Jin Baihua is aware of it as well, he didnt want to lose him. He would occasionally plot to sour the relations.h.i.+p between Yun Huaxia and Bai Qiyin. However, Bai Wuan always stood up for Bai Qiyin at that time. Everything he had planned had failed.

Furthermore, Bai Wuan is ruthless toward those who dared to mess with his family. One instance in which he blatantly thwarted Jin Baihuas goals caused him to become despised and difficult for people to have faith in. Bai Wuan shattered all of his fathers hard-earned trust in him in an instant.

Jin Baihuas heart is filled with resentment for Bai Wuan as a result of this. Bai Wuans contempt and opposition toward him infuriated him. He resented everyone in the world because they treated him like a slave. He despised his family for showing him no consideration whatsoever despite sharing his ancestry. Yun Huaxia had hurt him by not loving him. He detested both this world and his cruel fate. In the end, Devil Fennu made him an offer of fame and power. In return, he would receive his vessel after he pa.s.sed away. Jin Baihua became the Devil of Wraths vessel in this manner.

You do know that Fennu cannot wake up unless you die right? Thats the contract you both vowed to. You are able to freely use his powers and steal the fame of course, but this is only useful if you destroy someones fame and take it over for yourself. By the way, you can never steal the fate of an immortal so be careful. Call me only if you found me a vessel. I could hardly wake up like this. Shulan, the devil of sloth.

Devil Shulan once more transformed into a blood mist and vanished, leaving just Sect Master Bai and his scarlet eyes, which had once more turned brown, in the scene.

Jin Baihua remarked with a sneer, So what if Jin s.h.i.+yan is still alive? The entire Jin Tiangui Sect (Gold Heavenly Turtle Sect), including all the elders, is already under my control. Additionally, that old b.a.s.t.a.r.d is already dead, so who can say that Jin s.h.i.+yan was the true heir?

He was in a good mood as he departed the abandoned estate and destroyed any additional evidence that would have pointed to him. Hei Anjing had unknowingly left a covert surveillance device that had been recording everything since he had entered the home. He had Zhi Yue retrieve a prop from the system mall. It was used for this purpose alone.

Hei Anjing actually lacked the proof necessary to compel Jin Baihua to step down as the Sect Master of the Jin Tiangui Sect (Gold Heavenly Turtle Sect), but the evidence of his alliance with the devil race had since been discovered. Therefore, even with the elders of the Jin Tiangui Sect standing by his side, the mere knowledge that he is a devils vessel is enough for all of humanity to condemn him. Without understanding the unfortunate outcome he would experience in the future, he went back to his sect.

West City, at the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sects Territories...

After a.s.suming responsibility for the childrens gifts, Xia Jieye unflinchingly welcomed the kids inside his courtyard by opening the door. He suddenly appeared, startling the kids, but it wasnt his menacing grin that startled them; rather, it was his partially opened robes and chest riddled with hickeys.

Despite being young, Yun Fan, Yun Anjie, Yun Xing, and Jin Yanli were not ignorant of adult relations.h.i.+ps, particularly those between dao companions. However, they never antic.i.p.ated that the renowned Abstinence G.o.d of the cultivation world would behave in such a manner with his dao spouse. His robes were hung haphazardly on his torso, and those hickeys were obvious. Those four pairs of abs were stunning, especially with the red marks that were obviously just applied.

Jin Yanlis eyes were quickly covered by Yun Anjie, who also turned his own head away. Yun Fan was bold as he had goggles on his Masters chest with a flabbergasted face and Yun Xing had to cover his eyes while he closed his eyes on his own.

C-Chu-Chun Hongyun-Jun!!! Robes! Please close your robes! pleaded Yun Anjie.

He couldnt help but gaze down at his uncovered chest as he observed the disciples na?ve emotions in front of him, and he couldnt help but click his tongue. He rearranged his robes but nevertheless made the decision to pay attention to their request.

Tsk!

Xia Jieye said, What are you brats so shy about? These are all made by your Senior Hei.

His devilishly attractive face grew an evil smile. The young disciples only blushed more at these comments. They are still young and unsure of how to handle situations like these, even if their master is not ashamed.

Xia Jieye said, Enough of me. Masters Wife is still asleep. I had no heart to wake him so you can just come back again to see him later. Instead, I will pa.s.s his gifts to you guys.

Each of their gifts floated in the direction of the four of them. A golden elemental sword with the same jade symbol hanging at the hilt to conceal its original look is in front of Jin Yanli. A red snowflake pendant necklace and a gold bow that could make arrows out of Qi. The identical necklace with a varied snowflake pattern was given to the other three.

Xia Jieye said, Jinger, already gifted you three of your swords. This necklace amulet is a gift from him and me. The black and white gemstones are made of elemental qi, and they can defend you three times from attacks from dark elements, as well as heal your wounds three times. Just use it for emergency purposes during your night hunts. The Devil Race has been unpredictable lately. Be cautious of your spies.

The four disciples responded, Yes, Chun Hongyun-Jun! We will keep your words in mind.
