Chapter 743: 14.19 Last Violet Star – Allied Sects Representatives

Lu Er told Hei Anjing every detail he saw in that place. He didn’t hide anything and retold whatever he and his brother had experienced in the Ancestral Mound.

Hei Anjing mumbles after hearing what he got and said, “Crimson irises and black pupils. Pale white skin and death qi. I see... It’s that thing. But these are not from the devil race, just a pet they’ve made for fun.”

“Devil race? Pets?” asked Lu Er in confusion.

Hei Anjing said, “Yes, the devil race. My duty is to eliminate the Devil Race that had secretly invaded your Mortal Realm.”

“The Devil Race?! They really exist!?” exclaimed Lu Er.

Hei Anjing spoke, “You didn’t believe they existed? How come, before I descended I heard that more than ten years ago one of the strongest cultivators who can control resentment qi had absorbed a high-ranked devil’s soul to protect this realm? But in the end, he can only be killed by his partner to keep everyone safe. I didn’t get this one in the Underworld but he is quite an interesting person.”

Unknown to Hei Anjing, Zhi Yue who was hiding not far from them was screaming in his heart.

.....

‘My lord that was you. Was it okay? Please stop praising yourself. You sound narcissistic! Wuwu~ why are the Heavenly Laws interfering? I can’t even tell Lord Hei about his vessel’s past life as a human before he was punished in Purgatory.’

Sadly, Hei Anjing couldn’t hear his system’s thoughts. But Lu Er, who had some guesses, couldn’t help but laugh after hearing Hei Anjing’s comment. Now he is sure about his theories about a certain someone. But he turned serious upon learning about the Devil Race.

Lu Er said, “Is the Devil Race that strong?”

“Individually, a high-ranking one possesses cultivation beyond the Ascension Stage. Middle-rank ones had the same strength as those in the Nascent Soul to Soul Transformation stage. Low-ranked ones are at the Peak Golden Core stage. Well based on the Cultivation Stage of your realm,” explained Hei Anjing.

With a pale face, Lu Er mumbled in disbelief, “A low-ranked devil is already at Peak Golden Core Stage!? How can we defeat them flocked together?”

“There is no need to fear. The Devil doesn’t move in groups, even the low-ranked ones. But they always have servants or pets with them. Plus, they cannot come into the mortal realm without a vessel. Moreover, for them to get a vessel a large sacrificial ceremony must be done. You guys just have to stop it. To kill a devil you must kill their vessel together. For mortals with strong sentiments and emotions, it might be hard on you,” said Hei Anjing.

Lu Er said, “Is there no other way than to kill the vessel to kill the devil?”

“Well with the strength of you mortals that’s the only way. There is another way. That is to capture them and surrender them to the Underworld Ministry. The most important question is whether you can catch them though. Even though I can only kill them, only one man is able to catch a devil vessel alive,” said Hei Anjing.

“Who is it?” asked Lu Er.

Hei Anjing responded, “The God of Judgment but I heard he had gone missing a long time ago.”

“That esteemed being disappeared? Why?” Asked Lu Er.

Hei Anjing answered, “I don’t know. There are no records about it. All I know is that during his mission in the mortal realm, he had never once returned to the Heavenly Realm after he failed his mission.”

“Since what was found in your family’s cemetery is only a pet. I am not inclined to get involved. You mortals should solve it yourself.”

“Ahno~ can Senior Hei at least tell me what those devil’s pets, servants, and the vessel of the devils are? Of course, it is not for free! I will prepare a separate courtyard for Senior Hei to own in this city. I will give the biggest one.!” said Lu Er.

Hei Anjing loves privacy and couldn’t sleep in the inn due to the presence of our people. He hasn’t been sleeping lately ever since he had descended. He was forced to sleep by his untimely headaches but most of the time he is awake.

“I don’t need a big one. I want one that has quiet surroundings and little presence of others. Clean and desolate if possible.”

Lu Er said with a smile, “Don’t worry. Please leave it to me!”

“Okay. Then I will tell you about the characteristics of the Devil Race and their vessels. Their servants and pets as well. As for informing others, you should do it. I do not want to repeat what I will tell you to others.”

“You leave the rest to me, Brother Hei!”

“Brother? Sigh~ fine. Call whatever you want.”

Lu Er and Hei Anjing spend time talking about the devil race until they’ve separated for dinner. Lu Er had proposed Hei Anjing temporarily stay in their Sect’s Territory instead of staying in the inn. The latter agreed to it after seeing that the courtyard prepared for him is the farthest from the main building and the disciples were forbidden to venture into his place. That night was the first time Hei Anjing was able to take a short nap.

Morning.

At the Lu Weifeng Sect (Green Wind Breeze Sect).

During the unknown life-and-death situation of Lu Yi, Lu Er sent an emergency letter to the sect leaders of their Sects Coalition Alliance. He asked for everyone’s help as that was all he could do at that moment. But who would expect that Hei Anjing would come knocking on their door to save his brother thanks to their family’s merits?

He had known the existence of Heavenly Eyes. These are special eyes that allow one to see things that others can’t. This includes merits, bad karma, soul forms, and more. The reason Hei Anjing went to the Lu Weifeng Sect (Green Wind Breeze Sect) is that he had found the traces of death qi that had suddenly appeared in Luan City and decided to help Lu Yi as their accumulated merits caused them to have a light gold aura.

Gods and Goddesses like people with this kind of aura and Hei Anjing was the same. If he could and he is in the mood, he would sometimes leave mortals with good merits. Like the flower pastry seller from before or that milk tea seller as well as the Lu Brothers he chose to save.

There are five great sects in the mortal realm. The Lu Weifeng Sect (Green Wind Breeze Sect) is one of them. When Lu Er sent a message of distress and the information about the death qi, those who knew about the truth of what happened more than ten years ago all sent a representative to help the Lu Weifeng Sect (Green Wind Breeze Sect).

***

The Dao couple, Bai Qiyin and Yun Huaxia had arrived together with light bulbs called Jin Baihua and Crown Prince Hong. So when all four of them arrived in Lu Weifeng Sect (Green Wind Breeze Sect), Bai Qiyin looked even colder than glaciers and his long white hair was almost covered in ice as he walked ahead of all the others who came with them.

Bai Qiyin glanced coldly at Jin Baihua who was following his other half and snorted.

Hmph!

“Did you really think I wouldn’t fight you to death just because my Shixiong (Senior Brother) could no longer back me up? Even if my Dao companion stands by your side, if he overstepped I am willing to end our Dao companionship. It’s just that if that really happens I will make sure that you are dead!” said Bai Qiyin.

“Yin’er! That’s too much!” said Yun Huaxia.

Bai Qiyin looked at his partner with a disappointed look and said, “In the end, you must choose between your Dao Partner and your friend. So I am asking you now, Yun Huaxia?”

“Yin’er. Let’s talk about this when we got back home, okay? Right now, we need Baihua with the current situation. Brother Lu Yi’s life is in danger and Baihua is the only one who can cure him,” said Yun Huaxia.

Bai Qiyin turned even paler with Yun Huaxia’s words. This time he felt his heart breaking. A line of red falls from the corner of Bai Qiyin’s eye, blood tears. Tears made of blood, resentment, agony, and heartbreak. At this point, even Yun Huaxia was rendered speechless in shock. He wanted to reach out to his Dao Partner only to be avoided by Bai Qiyin.

Yun Huaxia could only watch as he returned to him his love token, his Lan Zhuayun Sect personal jade. A pure white cloud-shaped jade crest with carved words of Huaxia on it. Bai Qiyin looked at it for a while before placing it in Yun Huaxia’s hands.

Bai Qiyin said, “I need time to rethink our relationship. In the past, my Shixiong (Senior Brother) supported me all the way and he had always stood behind me as my greatest support. That’s why none of you had dared to scheme at me. After he is gone you take his place and become my only support. But you never treated me as your priority. Brother Wuan says that the Dao Companion I must have in the future would always treat me as the most important person above anything. To treat me as the most important in his life. But you can not do it, do you?”

“Unlike me, you still have a younger brother like Chun Hongyun-Jun, a sworn brother like Daoist Lu Wang, and a friend like Jin Baiyu. I used to have Brother Wuan with me but now... I am alone. Yun Huaxia. This time I want to stand up for myself. At this moment right now, I came here not as your Dao Companion but as (White Frozen Water Sect) Bai Lengshui Sect Master.”

“YIN’ER!”Bai Qiyin walks away after saying those words. His footsteps were firm and he had never looked back at Yun Huaxia. Leaving Yun Huaxia rather astonished as he didn’t expect Bai Qiyin to be this direct.

Jin Baihua grabs Yun Huaxia’s sleeves and says, “Big Brother Yun, we need to see Big Brother Lu first. His life might be in danger.”

“Ah... That’s right,” said Yun Huaxia as he pulled out his sleeves from Jin Baihua’s sleeves after recalling his wife’s reaction whenever this man is mentioned. He went inside to look for Lu Er and checked on his sworn brother while at the same time looking for his Dao Partner who wanted to avoid him due to their quarrel just now.

.....

Jin Baihua’s expression turned ugly for a moment when Yun Huaxia pushed him away. His plan to make a wedge between Bai Qiyin and Yun Huaxia was a success but... Now Yun Huaxia is openly avoiding him. The words of Bai Qiyin must have struck his heart just now. He felt guilty for his Dao partner and chose to avoid Jin Baihua instinctively just now.

But this is a result he didn’t want at all. Jin Baihua had always liked Yun Huaxia, after all this is the man who had given him kindness for the first time in his life. He was his obsession. Though in the end, he becomes someone’s Dao Companion. A Dai Companion is like a marriage between two cultivators. It is a promise to stay together until the end of their lifetime.

Cultivators live longer than ordinary mortals. Their focus is immortality because of this most of them are single even with a long lifespan to spend. That’s why some look for a Dao companion who would stay with them. Living a life of cultivation. Supporting, loving, and protecting each other.

In the first place, the (White Frozen Water Sect) Bai Lengshui Sect is an exclusive sect. They rarely got involved with the other great sects. The (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect is the most special as the former Senior brother of Bai Qiyin chose someone from this sect as his Dao Partner. Because of this, the (White Frozen Water Sect) Bai Lengshui Sect considers the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect as a branch family. Or a Sect allied to theirs due to marriage.
