775 14.51 Last Violet Star – Capital City

North Territories

At the Bai Lengshui Sect’s Glaciers...

The land of the North was always covered in snow and ice. Instead of mountains, there are ranges made of glaciers instead. It wasn’t that there aren’t any trees or plants in this part of the world, it’s just that there is more water in this place than land which limits the growth of trees and plants.

The humans who live in this place focus more on fishing. Their livelihood and daily consumption were mostly seafood. Plus, they always wear thick coats and boots. Normally, it is hard to live in a place with limited greenery but the Lord of this land, the Bai Lengshui Sect, has created some lands covered with formations that keep a certain place warm.

The place covered in formation allowed the land to be untouched by winter and snow. The season inside the formation would switch from spring, summer, and autumn, which is most suitable for planting things such as rice, vegetables, fruits, and more. That’s how people in the North were able to live a normal life except for the temperature being too cold the rest of their lives are normal.

The idea of creating formations to create secluded lands was made by Bai Wuan more than ten years ago. For a reason, he was craving rice and pasta which can only be eaten a few times a year. Most delicacies in the north are hotpots, seafood grills, and more soup-based food. When Bai Wuan started craving flour and fruits, these formations were created by him. In the end, take advantage of by the people in the North.

When people learned the idea of formations, they created secluded lands on their own and this idea slowly spread to other lands. They’ve also started creating mini paradises of their own. Some created training grounds and treasure caves. Everyone was awed by Bai Wuan’s genius mind and started worshiping him. For others’ fantasy and good, the Bai Clan hid the fact that those formations were created to satisfy their foodie Young Lord and protected his reputation. That’s why aside from the Bai Lengshui Sect no one else knows the real reason for the existence of the mini formations with secluded lands.

At the Ice Pavilion within the glaciers and ice mountains, the Bai Lengshui Sect can be found.

In one of the main rooms of the pavilion, Old Sect Master Bai and his wife, Madama Bai received a letter from their son and from the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect. They already knew what was written in the letter their son, Bai Qiyin had written as they’d already met Hei Anjing in the dreamscape.

.....

Madam Bai asked, “What did the old goat of the Lan Zhuayun Sect want this time? He already got my youngest as his eldest son’s Dao Companion, don’t tell me he wanted his youngest to take away my eldest son too!”

“That might be a few years late of complaint my dear. An’er is currently living with Yun Jieye at his peak. The message is personally written by Yun Huajie inviting some of our disciples to enter their Sect for an Exchange Lessons,” said Old Master Bai Yuyan

Madam Bai, Xue Wuxia spoke, “Another Exchange Lessons? No need, why do we need to send our disciples there when there is no need to keep pretending?”

“I thought so too at the beginning but I changed my mind when I saw what he had written. He says An’er would be teaching Medicinal and Pill Refinement Skills. These are skills that are possessed by An’er and both of them are at Divine Level. Moreover, his knowledge came from the Upper realm. I believe we should send our disciples while we are at it and send Qiqi and Lili’s son, Jin Yanli, there too,” said Old Sect Master Bai Yuyan.

Madam Bai said, “I agree. While you are at it, have Lili send Yanyan with Qiqi to see his uncle. This should be his first time seeing him after hearing all his story.”

“Yes, they should meet. Let Yan’er meet the Uncle he idolized the most,” said Old sect Master Bai Yuyan.

At the capital, Imperial city...

In the throne room of the main palace, the frozen Devil Tanlan was brought over under the orders of Emperor Hong. Among the escorts is Crown Prince Hong Longqing, the current Sect Master of the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect, Yun Huaxia, and the currency sect master of the (White Frozen Water Sect) Bai Lengshui Sect, Bai Qiyin.

Emperor Hong welcomed the guests’ arrival at his palace.

“The Esteemed Sect Masters of the two Great Sects. Zhen welcomes you to his humble home!” said the Emperor of the Human Race.

The Human Race’s Emperor. A powerful cultivator who leads the whole group of mortals who lives an ordinary life. His cultivation allows him to gather karmas found in the mortal realm and convert them to his Dragon Qi. The more humans see him as their leader, the more merits he could collect and get stronger as the faith of mortals was given to him. This is why most Emperors of each dynasty were called dragons of the land.

Possessing authority and strength, they are able to keep their people safe and protected. Because of this they see those emperors as their spiritual leaders and follow their leads whether the result is prosperity or poverty all of it would be in accordance with the fate of the Human Emperor.

Yun Huaxia and Bai Qiyin cupped their hands as greetings to Emperor Hong. Since they aren’t ordinary mortals but cultivators striving for immortality, they could only see the Emperor as a fellow cultivator and not as a leader. But they’ve given him the respect he deserves.

“Sect Master of the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect, Yun Huaye greets the Emperor of the Human Race!”

“Bai Ying, Sect Master of the (White Frozen Water Sect) Bai Lengshui Sect greets the leader of all mortals!”

“This unfilial son of Zhen had returned. Erchen paid his respect to the Imperial Father and successfully brought home your fifth brother!” said Crown Prince Hong Longqing.

Emperor Hong stepped down from his throne following behind him is his sworn brother and the Grand Minister of the Court. The two returned the greetings of Yun Huaxia and Bai Qiyin. Despite these two looking so young, they are still the same age as the middle age Emperor with gray hair before them. It is just that the cultivation of the Emperor is there to support the Human Race but it doesn’t stop time from affecting the lifespan of the Human Leader.

Emperor Hong spoke, “We hope that the journey of the Sect Masters has gone well?”

Only when he reached the peak of his life would he have a chance to ascend. If the Human Emperor successfully reached heaven only then his vessel would be reborn and his merits would greatly reward him. But there are rarely any good Emperors that succeeded in their ascension because humans are sentimental beings. They live by faith and emotions. Most of the former Emperors were affected by their bad karma and ended up being killed by their final Tribulation perishing for all eternity.

With a friendly smile, Yun Huaxia replied, “The Esteemed Human Emperor jest. There aren’t problems with the Crown Prince leading the way of course.”

“Hm. My eldest son did well. Qing’er, you may go ahead and rest. Zhen will entertain the two Sect Masters right now. For bringing back home your younger brother. Good work, my child!” said Emperor Hong.

Crown Prince Hong Longqing was delighted in his heart but felt a bit of pity seeing that he wouldn’t have any say on what his younger brother’s ending would be.

“Erchen is the most grateful to his majesty’s praise. Erchen (This child) shall excuse me for now. Longqing bids farewell to Sect Master Yun and Sect Master Bai!” said the crown prince before leaving the hall.

As soon as the crown prince left the throne hall, the grand minister covered the whole room with a barrier and a noise-canceling formation. Clearly, the conversation which would happen inside is something the other people in the palace can’t hear.

Emperor Hong asked, “Pardon me for asking. We heard the rumors but... Is it true that the immortal that had descended is the immortal vessel of Mo Bing Jingling-Jun (Demonic Ice Fairy)? And that Chun Hongyun-Jun had brought the Venerable Lord with him to the Lan Zhuayun Sect?”

Mo Bing Jingling-Jun (Demonic Ice Fairy) is the title Hei Anjing received when he was still Bai Wuan of the (White Frozen Water Sect) Bai Lengshui Sect.

Sect Master Bai’s face turned sour upon hearing this. Though it was the truth, just the fact that his Senior Brother had to leave with Yun Xiajie pissed him off. He couldn’t hold back and glared at his Dao Companion, Yun Huaxia, who flinched in discomfort at being glared at by his beloved.

Sect Master Yun said, “It is all true. But Wuan’er was brought back home after fainting after he captured Devil Tanlan. As you can see we had brought him here as you’ve requested but the Alliance wanted to know what you planned with him.”

“I would like to see my child again if he is still alive and if he is dead I wanted to bury his remains for the second time,” said Emperor Hong.

The Grand Minister pleads, “This humble one wishes for the same thing as well.”

It was Sect Master Bai who gave them an answer in Hei Anjing’s instead.

“The one inside that ice is alive. As long as my Shixiong didn’t allow him to die he wouldn’t...”

These words brought a short joy to the Emperor and his minister.

“But isn’t the fifth prince dead for 5 years? The one in that body is no longer your son... It is the devil that rules greed and calls himself Tanlan. Moreover, this is an ice prison made by my brother. It is impossible to unfreeze it no matter what you guys do. It wouldn’t melt,” said Bai Qiyin.

The Grand Minister mumbled, “It cannot be melted? Even with fire or something?”

“Un. Wuan’er is called the Demonic Ice Fairy for nothing? His ice can only be melted by himself. You knew that right?” said Sect Master Yun Huaxia.

As cultivators from the same generation as Chun Hongyun-Jun and Mo Bing Jingling-Jun, they knew some information about their strengths. Cultivator Bai Wuan is quite famous. It was said that no one had been able to melt the ice he conjured and only he is able to make it disappear. There had been no exception to this.

As expected, Emperor Hong, who leads the bloodline of the strongest elemental fire controller, gathered his qi to create a huge fire dragon. Everyone watches as he attacks the block of ice that froze the Devil Tanlan with all his might.

“Fiery Dragon Palm!”

BOOM!

After the fire and explosion fade, the frozen figure of Devil Tanlan remains the same. Regardless of how many times the Emperor tried to melt it, it had no effect on the ice prison at all. Seeing Emperor Hong’s attacks of vexation, the Grand minister had no choice but to stop his brother. Everyone with eyes could see, no matter what kind of attacks the Human emperor used, even if he gathered all the elemental fire in the world, it couldn’t melt the ice that imprisoned the devil.

The minister held his brother’s sleeves and stopped him, “Dage, that’s enough! You’ll hurt your dragon body this way!”

“I... Sigh~ I’m acting foolish. What can a mortal like me do going against an immortal like Mo Bing Jingling-Jun,” mutters Emperor Hong?

“Brother...”

“I know. This Emperor had no plans of going against the verdict of the Immortal one. There is something I would like to beg the Esteemed being...” said the Emperor while looking at Yun Huaxia whom they knew could contact Hei Anjing who was staying at the Lan Zhuayun Sect.

Yun Huaxia asked, “What would the human emperor request?”

“He doesn’t need to be intact... If possible I would like to spend a few more days with this one. To see him in his last moments...” asked the Emperor of the Human Race.
