I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1479: .43 First Black Star - Yun Ming at the Borderlands.

Still at Anjia Village...

At dawn, Warden Yun Ming finally woke up. As soon as he opened his eyes, the pain in his body was real and he couldn't move an inch as everything would ache with a simple movement. He barely tolerates the pain as he takes a breath. The warden looked around and noticed that he was in some kind of luxurious room, and thought he was captured and brought back to the imperial palace.

Warden Yun Ming looked at the door and heard footsteps coming over. He was determined to ignore the pain of his body just to attack whoever is coming. But when he saw who it was, Warden Yun Ming looked extremely relieved. After all, the one who came is none other than Zhi Yue.

Upon seeing him here, meant that he had been successfully transported to where the Sovereign Lord Ye is.

Warden Yun spoke with broken words, "Y-Yue..."

"Don't speak. The master says that a mortal affected by the darkness needed at least a whole week before normal. You can start moving in at least three days, the pain will still be there, but you can move your body to at least eat or go to the bathroom."

"The darkness had corroded not only your vessel, but as well as your soul. How are you feeling, right now?" asked Zhi Yue as he sat at the chair beside the bed.

Yun Ming answered, "I feel... like I...was run... over by... a truck...a few... times. Even...speaking is...

Very... painful."

"Pill doesn't have the effect of curing the aftereffects of the tainting of darkness. Light elements should be effective, but I don't think light elements exist in this place," said Zhi Yue.

"I cannot use light elements. You can either ask my master or A'Yang. Asking the master is a bit impossible," added Zhi Yue as he knew about the indifference of his master to others except his wife. Even the Chief Warden doesn't receive much attention from his lord except when he needs him for something.

Warden Yun Ming stopped talking through his mouth and used divine senses to communicate with Zhi Yue. That way, even if his body is hurt, he can still talk to someone through their minds.

'Zhi Yue, can you connect with the Nether System?'

Zhi Yue didn't show any surprise that Warden Yun spoke to him through divine sense and replied to him.

"Do you wish to use the System Mall? I will exchange your points for it. What would you like to redeem?"

'A Minor Light Healing Spell Scroll, please.'

[Ding! Minor Light Healing Spell Scroll had been redeemed from the Nether System Mall.]

A pure white ancient scroll floats above Yun Ming. This is what he had redeemed in the system mall. It was enough to cure his mortal vessel and help him cure the remnant pain of being cursed. Warden Yun Ming used his qi to unfurl the scroll and a powerful aura of light fell into his being.

As for the effects of this scroll, it had long been blocked by Zhi Yue's barrier, which he erected a few hours ago, which not only isolates sound but also aura of those who were inside the room.

Once the healing scroll had taken effect, Warden Yun Ming's accumulated fatigue and aftereffects of the curse had been completely cured and purified. He had sat up from his bed, flexing his stiff muscles from pain.

Warden Yun Ming said, "This is better. Since this could be considered an injury during work, I can reimburse it when we return to Vearth."

"Haha~ it's just a few thousand points for wardens and celestial gods like you who possess millions of points; it's just a drop in the ocean," said Zhi Yue. "Moreover, your lover is the Chief Warden; his points might be more than 10 million."

Warden Yun Ming smiled and said, "It's for preparation. Wuye and I planned to get married and plan to have children after the problem with our masters had been resolved."

Zhi Yue said, "Having a vacation at that time should be possible. Maybe I can ask A'Yang to go somewhere as well." Read exclusive adventures at empire

"By the way, what happened to you? Based on your injuries, you've met that man who attacked you and A'Yang at that time."

The leisure expression on Warden Yun Ming's face fades as he frowns; the current human emperor is fake. He must be fake from the beginning or might have been replaced in the middle. The mastermind is that person you have mentioned. He is also the one who attacked me!"

"What!? I don't know what he is planning on doing and why he is interested in the human emperor. But I definitely saw half of the soul of the human emperor in that fake human emperor's body. His soul is being used as the source to keep that appearance and they indeed used a life-exchange curse on the original human emperor," said Warden Yun Ming.

At this moment, Wang Xiajie, who was supposed to be resting, suddenly appeared in the guest room where Warden Yun Ming and Zhi Yue are in. He might have been eavesdropping the moment the two talked about that man in black cloak.

The God of Void asked, "Is there something else he had said?"

"Yes, he says that his plans will not fail. I don't know if that plan involves the fake human emperor or something else though," responded Warden Yun Ming to his superior's question.

The God of Void said, "Regardless of what his plans are, will it still fail? Have you seen the half-soul of the original human emperor?"

"I didn't see its appearance, but he is definitely sealed within the body of the current fake human emperor," Warden Yun Ming answered. "Is there something wrong?"

The God of Void said, "Usually, life-exchanging curses can only be completed when one knows the other's real birthday or true name. If this cannot be done, then the other way is to be related by blood. Is the fake human emperor related to the male empress?"

"My lord, I will have to go to the capital and help A'Yang with the investigation. Let Warden Yun stay here to serve you," said Zhi Yue.

The God of Void glances at the Warden, who had suffered a curse of darkness twice, and any more of that will lead to the weakening of his soul. He can only relent and let Zhi Yue help Zhi Yang as long as they don't materialize; it would be hard for them to be caught unless they intentionally approach one who is more powerful than they are.

"Okay, go when the sun rises. You need to say goodbye to Uncle and Aunt before you leave. Just pretend that I've sent you to the capital or something," said Wang Xiajie.

Then this God of Void looked at Yun Ming and said, "You take a rest and recuperate. My wife might think I'm slaving his subordinate. Go back to sleep tonight."

Wang Xiajie disappeared under the shadows and left the guest room. Yun Ming told everything he knew about the capital to Zhi Yue before going back to sleep. The minor healing scroll couldn't cure a tired soul. The corrosion of darkness in one's soul can only be cured by meditation.

Next morning

Zhi Yue had informed Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan that he would like to go back to the capital and stay there for a few days, weeks, and maybe months. He didn't need to explain why, as the old couple already knew about the real identity of Wang Xiajie.

Something must have happened in the imperial palace, and that man who arrived in the mansion's backyard wounded and cursed must have been reported as something important for Wang Xiajie to send Zhi Yue to the capital. But either way, the two didn't ask and Anwei was silent the whole time and no one knows what he is thinking about.

After breakfast, "Aunt Yan, Uncle Shun, I will be going now."

"Be careful on the way, boy," said Uncle Shun.

Aunt Yan passed to him a few layers of boxed food and said, "Don't be hungry on the way. Be vigilant and remain safe."

"Don't worry, Aunt Yan. I will be careful. I'll bring home some souvenirs when I return," said Zhi Yue.

The family watched as Zhi Yue left in a carriage with a few puppet soldiers. The whole village only knew that Zhi Yue would be going home to check something as there seemed to be a problem at home. No one knew he was going to the capital except for the old couple and Anwei, who overheard the conversation between Zhi Yue, Uncle Shun, and Aunt Yan.

Wang Xiajie said, "Aunt, don't worry. Zhi Yue might look weak and silly, but he is quite powerful himself. Moreover, he is meeting his partner in the capital. He will not be truly alone."

"I know. I'm just a bit worried. The capital had always been full of hidden chaos. I'm afraid he might get caught up with it," said Aunt Yan.

Wang Xiajie said, "His partner is a lot smarter than him. The kind that is hard to crack."

"Is there something wrong in the capital?" asked Uncle Shun.

With this question, Wang Xiajie's face turned dark, and she said, "My ex-male empress is missing. The one on the throne is a fake one."

"WHAT!?"

On the sidelines, Anwei was unexpectedly shocked after hearing what Wang Xiajie said. This calmness stared and made Yun Ming, who was also at the side, glance at him. Caught in the act, Anwei looked at Warden Yun Ming with a smile, which startled the latter instead.

The old couple exclaimed as they couldn't believe what they just heard. But upon seeing Wang Xiajie's expression, this news is mostly real, and the real reason why Wang Xiajie's subordinate comes to the mansion injured and cursed must have something to do with it.

Uncle Shun asked, "Do you have no plans on returning?"

"No. I am no longer their emperor," said Wang Xiajie as he walked back to the mansion.

Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan looked at each other with knowing gazes but no longer pursued this topic that involved the throne and the capital. Their former human emperor no longer cares anyway; why should they, cultivators, care about mortal dynasties? They all followed Wang Xiajie back to the mansion. After all, Zhi Yue's carriage had long disappeared from their line of sight.
