751 14.27 Last Violet Star – Brother’s Conversation

Their conversation from before continues...

Bai Qiyin asked, “How about your veil, Gege? What’s its use?”

“It’s to purify the qi in this realm. The Qi in this place is too thin and sparse. It wasn’t even pure that it suffocates me without this veil. It would take a while before my vessel stabilized itself. At least a month more or two before I can stop wearing this veil,” answered Hei Anjing.

Upon observing Hei Anjing all this time, Yun Huaxia noticed the slight black circle around his eyes. It wasn’t that noticeable but... If one observes him closely one would notice how evident the light blackening under his eyes compared to his white and flawless face.

Sect Master Yun asked, “Are you... Having a hard time sleeping?”

“A bit...” answered Hei Anjing honestly.

Thoughts of Zhi Yue who was listening to their conversation at the side.

‘A bit your ass... if not for your exquisite features overpowering your dark circles, you would have definitely looked like a panda!’

Zhi Yue spoke out of nowhere and contradicted his words, “My lord you are lying. You haven’t slept properly even once after descending from the Upper Realm!”

.....

“Yue, shut up.” scolded Hei Anjing.

Zhi Yue said, “But I’m telling the truth...”

“You can’t sleep. Is it because your body is undergoing some changes?” asked Yun Huaxia worriedly.

Hei Anjing said, “There is that but... the main reason might be... would be... I just couldn’t sleep. I’m uncomfortable.”

“Why are you uncomfortable, Gege?” asked Bai Qiyin.

They saw Hei Anjing staring in the distance and said, “I don’t know. I feel I’m missing something. Anyway, it’s time for you guys to return to the main building. It’s almost time for dinner.”

He suddenly stood up preparing to get back to his courtyard. He left the cleaning and sent the guest out for Zhi Yue to do.

Bai Qiyin asked, “Gege, aren’t you going to eat at the main hall?”

“No. I hate crowds,” said Hei Anjing. “Run along now. You guys still need to visit that graveyard after a meal. Remember, I would only help if there are Beings of the Devil Race involved. But fighting their servants and pets would be your job so I wouldn’t interfere with that. See you later.”

They could only watch as Hei Anjing went back inside his house. Zhi Yue who remained had also asked them to leave.

“This subordinate, Zhi Yue, was tasked to send the guests back. Please~”

Bai Qiyin asked, “Is brother going to stay here? How long?”

“That would depend on the Lord’s mood. But... He would most like to leave after the problems with the Ancestral Mound of Lu, had been settled,” answered Zhi Yue.

Sect Master Yun said, “I would like to offer a place for your lord to stay. Our sect the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect is also a great clan like the Lu Weifeng Sect. But we are located in the West territory where the mountain range is located. There are only a few cultivators residing in the mountain range and that whole place is under our Sect’s jurisdiction. It is quiet and desolate. How about it? Your lord is having a hard time sleeping right? Our sect specialized in music as well. My younger brother can help play a tune to help your lord sleep.”

Zhi Yue narrowed his eyes at Yun Huaxia. He knew what Yun Huaxia’s words meant.

“You are talking about that man, hah?” asked Zhi Yue.

A kind smile appeared on Yun Huaxia’s face but it felt fake yet not at the same time. Zhi Yue look at Bai Qiyin and commented,

“You’ve married yourself to a smiling tiger2.”

“What smiling tiger?” asked Bai Qiyin in confusion.

Zhi Yue sighed seeing such an innocent reaction.

“You’ve kidnapped an innocent cat?” he said to Yun Huaxia.

Yun Huaxia said, “My darling is the cutest!”

“What the hell are you two talking about?!!!” screamed Bai Qiyin. Like a cat whose tail was stepped on. The two ignored him though.

“As for your request, I cannot decide on it. But I have a suggestion, would you like to hear it?” said Zhi Yue.

Yun Huaxia said, “I’m all ears.”

Then Zhi Yue whispered something to Yun Huaxia and Bai Qiyin. Upon hearing the plan details from Zhi Yue, Bai Qiyin didn’t want to agree at all. It was only when his Dao companion convinced him with sweet words and a smile that he reluctantly agreed. He also believes that his brother staying at the Lan Zhuayun Sect would be better for him.

The (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect is well known for its strictness and discipline. The land under their supervision is mostly desolated and doesn’t accept outsiders. They’ve also practiced tranquility so each cultivator had their own place to live. Only their disciples live collectively in groups.

Dinner Hall...

Everyone had gathered in the dining hall except for Hei Anjing and Yun Xiajie who stayed in their own courtyards. The disciples were sent there to serve their dinner at the same time and left to return to the hall to have their dinner themselves.

Bai Qiyin and Yun Huaxia who had reconciled came to visit Chun Hongyun-Jun in his courtyard located closer to Hei Anjing’s place.

Yun Xiajie was playing chess on his own quietly in his room. This was the scene Bai Qiyin and Yun Huaxia were welcomed with.

“Jieye, aren’t you going to join the dinner banquet?” asked Yun Huaxia with his usual gentle smile.

Yun Xiajie respectfully greeted him. Not only is he the Sect Master of their (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect, but he is also his biological elder brother.

Cupping his hands before, Yun Xiajie greets.

“Greetings to Elder Brother. Why have you come to my place?” asked Yun Xiajie.

Yun Huaxia said, “No need to be formal with brother. My brother and your Saozi (the wife of your brother) came over because we wanted to invite you to the dining hall with us. Are you going, Jieye?”

“No. I want to eat alone. Please send someone to call me for the meeting.”

“Brother, a disciple said that a monster using human skin had infiltrated this place. But when I came there were only traces of burns and the ashes were cleaned. Did you do it?” asked Yun Xiajie.

Before Yun Huaxia could answer his question, Bai Qiyin spoke, “No. It was me who killed the monster.”

Bai Qiyin decided to lie. Even though he knew that his brother was back and then in front of him was someone his brother cared for the most, he still didn’t like the person who killed him in the first place. Because of this hatred, he didn’t want this person to know about his brother’s existence even though they are inevitable to meet each other.

Unknown to him, the reason why Yun Xiajie moved to this secluded courtyard was that he knew that next door was possibly the man he had been dreaming of for more than a decade. But he also knew that the man could no longer recognize even so he wanted to stay by his side regardless.

Yun Huaxia pats his younger brother’s shoulder and says, “Stay here as you wish. Before you leave tonight can you play a tune that helps one to fall asleep?”

“...You wanted to play my guqin but... this isn’t our place. That’s rude,” said Yun Xiajie.

Yun Huaxia said, “I should be okay. I will ask Dage for permission. Just play at least one tune before leaving tonight okay?”

“... Okay,” replied Yun Xiajie but obviously he had no other choice. His brother was personally asking for it.

“Brother, my subordinate reported to me that there is a large number of monsters living in the underground graveyard of the Lu Clan. It’s better to ask for Reinforcement within the vicinity.”

“Okay. I will call out some disciples and request the other Sect Masters to do the same thing. Do you have an estimation of how many there are?” asked Yun Huaxia.

Yun Jieye honestly answered, “At least 500 monsters in various forms. Most of their strength ranges from the Qi gathering stage to the Foundation Establishment stage. There are a few Golden cores mixed up in it. I will send Zhi Yang to give proof of my words.”

“Quite a lot. Leave it to me. I’ll gather enough force before we set out tonight. Remember what I ask you to do,” said Yun Huaxia as he was reminding his brother about playing a tune tonight.

Yun Xiajie responded, “... I remember.”

Yun Xiajie didn’t tell his brother about the possibility of the devil race in that Ancestral Mound. Even though Zhi Yang had informed him about it, the possibility of those things appearing on the surface is minimal. If they showed themselves right now, a war between races would definitely be unavoidable when that happens the Upper Realm would send immortals to descend and help them fight the devils.

On the other hand, upon achieving what he wanted Yun Huaxia left the courtyard of Chun Hongyun-Jun with his Dao companion, Bai Qiyin. On the way, Bai Qiyin asked him why he didn’t tell his brother about his Shixiong.

“Hua-gege, why didn’t you tell Jieye about my brother? Hei Wuan is definitely my brother but for some reason, he doesn’t recall his life as Bai Wuan,” said Bai Qiyin.

Yun Huaxia responded, “There is no need. If they are fated to meet, regardless of what we do they would meet if not then they wouldn’t. Moreover, do you think A’Wuan would believe him if he said that he is his past life’s Dao companion?”

“...Hm, No. My Amnesiac Brother would definitely beat him up if he said that,” said Bai Qiyin. “Did you ask him to play a tune to help Brother sleep tonight?”

“Yes. If the tune Jieye played is useful for him to sleep even if he doesn’t have any memories, he would definitely approach Jieye. As for what happens after that Jieye had to make the decision himself. It’s too late. Let’s go eat dinner and prepare to fight tonight,” said Yun Huaxia.

Bai Qiyin said, “How come I never knew you are this cunning?”

“Darling~ I’m only kind towards you~,” said Yun Huaxia.

Bai Qiyin said, “So what is it? You knew that Jin Huayu likes you and used him to make me feel jealous?”

“So what if he likes me? I only love you!” says Yun Huaxia.

Blushing from embarrassment, Bai Qiyin said, “S-Stop teasing me. I’m going to ask my brother to beat you if you do.”

“Um. Don’t do it, darling. Your brother right now is too powerful and he could even kill me with a single flick of his fingers. Do you want to be a widow early?” says Yun Huaxia.

Urg!

He suddenly received an elbow in the stomach from his grumpy little wife. Seeing Bai Qiyin walk away from him with angry steps, Yun Huaxia could only run after his wife and ask for forgiveness.

Yun Huaxia said, “Darling~ wait for me please~”

“Just die...” said Bai Qiyin as he ignored his annoying husband while acting tsundere1 as always.

At the dining hall...

Everyone was enjoying the feast served by the Lu Weifeng Sect tonight. Of course, after this heartfelt meal, everyone resumed their usual duties. The Elders of the Lu Weifeng Sect were instructed to get their disciples ready for tonight’s hunt. There are other disciples from various small sects that Yun Huaxia and Lu Yi had assembled to be included in tonight’s hunt.

More than 500 monsters from the Infernal Realm. No one would have believed it until Zhi Yang showed them a memory orb that showed what he had seen directly with his eyes for everyone to see. He didn’t hide anything as his lord requested.

The Sect Masters from the Alliance were all shocked by what they had seen. A large number of monsters. Ones that came out of the Infernal Realm. Even though high-level devils are forbidden to enter the Mortal Realm without any sufficient vessel, their servants and pets are a different story. Those monsters from the Infernal Realm are able to enter the land of mortals unrestricted.

.....

But there is a requirement for a huge number of monsters to invade the mortal realm. That is only if they were led by a high-ranking Devil race. In the report of Zhi Yang, they had seen three beings with an unknown strength.

Lu Yi asked, “These three... they look kike humans but... Are they humans?”

“Most likely not Senior Lu Yi. Why would there be humans in a place full of monsters?” said Crown Prince Hong Longqing.

Jin Baihua said, “Are they from the Devil Race? I heard the more beautiful a devil is, the stronger they are. Are you not able to see their real appearance?”

“No. I just peered through the earth and checked the estimated numbers of enemies below. I’m there to scout not to give away my life,” said Zhi Yang with a disdainful tone toward Jin Baihua.

Jin Baihua bellowed, “YOU!!!”

This is the first time Sect Master Bai was treated with just disdain. He was angry to the point he wanted to fight Zhi Yang on the spot but unfortunately, in the eyes of Zhi Yang, he is nothing but an insect he can kill at any time. Their difference in strength is so large that Zhi Yang doesn’t treat those being in the lower world as something he should give attention to. He only respected his Master and creator. As for his alter ego, he is the most important in his world.
