Chapter 1070: 16.116 First Red Star - The Lonely Figure of someone waiting.

The disdainful gaze of Xun Yong made Esther Dawn and the others feel especially uneasy. Since they arrived in this place, everyone they met, including the person who brought them here, has looked down on them or has shown no interest in them. They can understand Sovereign Ruler Ye if they look them down. After all, they were responsible for the outcome that led to Cassius Ambrosia's sacrifice.


The last time a mortal appeared in the Nether System, Ye Qinjing only heard from his Uncle An. It was when their world was destroyed, but some mortals were saved because their father cared for them or his parents owed them. This time, it appears to be the latter, as he senses a bad mood in the dark elements of the Netherworld. It can only imply that his father is not in a good mood.


"Lao Yong, stop, please. They should be mortals Dad chose to save or they wouldn't be brought here." Ye Qinjing said.


He knew his identity and had no right to question his actions once the Empress Mother of Ye Qinjing was mentioned as the former Eunuch that serves the royal bloodline. After his young master's warning, he immediately stopped talking.


Xun Yong said, "Okay. With due respect to Lord Hei I won't say anything more. But if Lord God Ye is not appearing even though he had gone most likely they failed to protect their world and had for the Lord to clean up after their asses. Hmp!"


Such words cannot be denied by the four men; after all, this is the undeniable truth. They were grateful that Lord Cassius had come to their aid at the last moment, and that Lord Fenrir had spared their lives. However, these four had left before learning the truth, believing that Xun Yong was blaming them for no reason.


Carnelian Dawn said, "Even though we failed, that was because that devil is cunning and he ambushed Lord Keylan!"


"Carnelian Dawn shut up!"


"But brother!?"


"Enough!"


Esther Dawn reprimanded his younger brother's name, sensing that events in their world were not as simple as they thought. Carnelian Dawn senses his brother's warning and, despite his desire, immediately closes his mouth. He didn't want to argue with his older brother about this.


Furthermore, Lord Fenrir Skoll's sudden rage at the last moment baffled them, but something must have happened to Lord Cassius Ambrosia that had something to do with them. They simply didn't know the entire story. Otherwise, why would Instructor Skoll, who was treating them amiably thanks to the headmaster, turn out to be a villain in the end? He, too, can see the obvious rage on his face at the time.


Esther Dawn bowed his head towards Ye Qinjing and the ones on his side to apologize for his younger brother's rudeness.


"I apologize for my brother's rudeness. He is still young. I hope seniors forgive him. I promise to teach him well."


"Brother?"


Mayonaka Yoru stopped Carnelian Dawn this time and shook his head obviously stopping him from speaking anything further. Conri Lycaon could somehow understand and pulled away his lover to the back, stopping him from saying any more nonsense.


Ye Qinjing smiled, he was friendly as always and said, "There is no need to apologize. It's young so it's understandable but... I must learn some things..." His aura overpowered the four of them and they fell on the floor kneeling.


Even though Ye Qinjing looks friendly, he still used to be a monarch that led a few dynasties and was revered as a God. When a lower man dares to shout at him, of course, it needs to be punished. So he used coercion on them for a while only to be stopped by his siblings who once again ran away.


Ye Jingxia was the first one to feel his father's presence in the palace.


"I can feel... Father's aura. Father is back!" Ye Jingxia exclaimed as he used a space portal to look for his father leaving even his siblings behind.


"Bwother Jingjing. Wait for Momo!"


"Meh too~"


These three brats excelled at controlling space, particularly Jingmo and Jingxia, while Anxia excelled at controlling the Darkness element. Ye Anxia hugged Ye Jingmo and entered the space portal with her third brother before Ye Jingmo jumped into the space portal he created to follow Ye Jingxia.


Before Ye Qinjing and Xun Yong could stop the three brats from leaving, the Space Portal closed. Unlike those three, Ye Qinjing can use Time Elements rather than Space Elements.


But because he doesn't use it on his siblings unless absolutely necessary, he couldn't prevent them from leaving using Space Teleportation. Even the coercion he had used on the four people before them had been deactivated, and they could barely move as a result.


Xun Yong murmured, "Space Elements are really convenient for travel. They've already disappeared in a second."


"It's fine. Lao Yong had already gathered enough points to buy a teleportation device. As long as you have that, you will be able to Teleport in places recorded in it. I wanted to buy one too but I feel like I won't have time to go on a mission with the training schedule grandpa and granddad gave me." Ye Qinjing said.


Xun Yong said, "Don't complain, young master. You got a lot stronger thanks to those training sessions. It's the safest and shortest way to get stronger. Doing training takes time and the danger of illegal hoppers has been a lot lately. But catching them gives big rewards itself which makes it worth it. Either way, go ahead and find your father. I will bring them back to the throne room instead. I don't need to be a third wheel in a family reunion."


"Then I will leave them to Lao Yong." Ye Qinjing said. He disappeared after a step. He used time acceleration to leave the place immediately and chase after his siblings.


Xun Yong looked at the mortals looking vigilantly towards him but even so, he used his qi to lift them up and heal them. It just took a single wave of waves for the four to calm down and return to normal.


"I hope you don't blame my young master. After all, the Cassius Ambrosia who has sacrificed thanks to you failing your world is his mother. You should be able to understand his anger at least. You should know the truth. After you fail to protect your world, it seeks someone among its creation to protect him. It was supposed to be that God named Keylan Light but in the end, because of his carelessness, you failed. If that Mikaela Domain Lord was there then it might have been prevented but thanks to him not being around it chose the best among its creation which was Cassius Ambrosia."


Xun Yong and Ye Qinjing were told what had happened in the last world, which Lord God Ye and the others had entered. Of course, this is after they were informed about the return of the God of Void to Vearth. So they already know that the Lord God of the Nether System has returned but has not returned home because he needs to support his wife in her merging with that little star despite being a mortal. Cassius Ambrosia can only survive with the help of a Sovereign God like Ye Xiajie.


Xun Yong was planning to bring away the four young men back to the Throne Room when suddenly Hei Jue, one of his superiors, appeared before him. Obviously, he came for the four children who escaped.


"Greetings to Lord Hei Jue. Executioner #3333 at your service."


Hei Jue, the God of Space, can be said to be stronger than Hei Anjing in Space Manipulation. Space Element is his main Attribute after all. So when he suddenly appeared in thin air, it wasn't only the four children who were shocked but even Xun Yong was caught off guard.


"Aren't you, my Eldest Nephew's protector? Why don't I see Xiao Qin with you?" Hei Jue said.


Xun Yong replied, "Answering to the Lord. The Young Master left with the young lord, little princess, and little prince."


"Did they go look for Ye Xiajie? Well~ with how the current state of my younger brother's soul fragment had ended up, I would also be angry but if the children are with him, he... should be able to calm down a bit. You should go and find my husband and assist with his work. I will get these mortals back to where the rest are staying."


Hei Jue just waved his hand and the four young men disappeared on the spot. Xun Yong knew they were directly transferred back to the Throne Room by the God of Space before him.


"By the way... Tell my husband, I will be back home to cook lunch."


Xun Yong cupped his hands and said, "I shall pass on the message."


"Good. Go help him with his tasks. Especially the preparation for the new world for those mortals so we can send them away as soon as possible. Else that idiot would definitely lose his temper if this goes on." Hei Jue said as he disappeared. He obviously left through teleportation.


Xun Yong stared in dazed as he saw him disappear, "I really wanted to be able to use teleportation too but Space Elements is almost exclusive for the Hei Clan. I'm so envious. Better report to the Boss first." He also left to do his work.

Meanwhile at the Central Region of the Nether System...


A land with a floor as deep as water, but the surface is solid and each step causes ripples. A world tree was planted in the center, where Hei Anjing's true vessel slept. To keep Cassius Ambrosia's mortal soul from dying as he merged with his world, he brought him to this location, which is the safest and has the strongest and purest qi emitted by the World Tree, which is extremely helpful in stabilizing the soul and the vessel.


Cassius Ambrosia's soul had to merge with Hei Anjing's vessel to keep it from exploding due to the last world's World Qi. However, the merging must still be completed, so Ye Xiajie intends to speed up the time of that world in order for it to die sooner and detach itself from Cassius Ambrosia. To do so, he must master Time Elements through complex spells and domains. It would have been easier if he was the God of Time, and if he is, there will be no backlash. Unfortunately, he is the God of Void, and Time Elements was never his primary element.


A whole world was placed under the world tree, which was directly connected to the body of the God of Destruction, while holding the slightly cold hands of Hei Anjing sleeping under the world tree. An Liang was standing next to him. Attempting to keep him from abusing his Time Domain.


An Liang remarked, "A'Ye, you need to rest too! Do you think I didn't notice you using Time Domain that affects this region and accelerated the time more than 100 times? 100 years have passed already but you keep on using your domain. Take a rest!"


"I can't. My wife in the last world was too scared to be alone. He just loved for a few hundred years and already feels tired of living. I can't let him suffer for a few Eon just because that's the lifespan of the world that forcefully merges with him. If only I knew this would have happened... I would have destroyed that bastard (Kenan Light) the moment he got entangled with that World Eater even if I got punished by the Divine Laws for interfering too much! Tsk!" Ye Xiajie said.


An Liang sighed, "It wasn't even your fault. Stop blaming yourself. Mortals are just... like that. We cannot blame them. That Lesser God (Keylan Light) is a fool though."


"I don't want to hear anything about them. Send them away before I couldn't hold back myself and kill them all!" Ye Xiajie said. The corner of his eyes was red in sadness and rage. He is only holding back because his wife cared for those mortals.


An Liang said, "Okay. Calm down. By the way, your children are here. Also... there is someone who had been waiting to see you and A'Jing. You will be surprised to see him. Actually, maybe he can help you."


"...I will rest a bit when the children arrive." Ye Xiajie mumbles.


Other than his wife, his children were important to him, though not as much as Hei Anjing in his life. An Liang, on the other hand, chose to send the children here as soon as possible after realizing that his friends had no intention of resting on his words alone. This central region is not for the faint of heart; even he requires Ye Xiajie's permission to enter. He must assist the children in gaining entry to see their parents.


"Then I will go ahead..." An Liang said as he took his leave from that area.


The world tree's white leaves sway with the qi it emits, purifying and illuminating the entire area with a gentle white glow. As An Liang walked away, a few ripples appeared on the water. The mystical scenery of the Central Region, as well as the lonely figure of Ye Xiajie holding the sleeping man's hand, were left behind.
