I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot [BL]

Chapter 830 - 830 14.106 Last Violet Star - (Past) The Former Little Prince.

They traveled across various landscapes and cherished every second like it was gold. It took them 5 days to get to the Capital, where the Imperial Palace is situated. The general public was going about their daily business despite the instability inside the Imperial Family. They are commoners and don’t care what happened to the people in the highest positions. They wouldn’t give a damn who sat on the throne as long as there wasn’t a war going on.

Compared to the other cities under the control of the great clans, the roadways in the capital were wider. This is a display of money and power; it is reasonable to assume that those with the highest social standing and most fortune will rule over mortals. The pinnacle of all mortals is the royal family. They are not only the race’s leaders, but they are also to blame for the changes in the human homeland.

The elderly Emperor had been confined to a bed for some time. His sons, the royal princes, had begun to oust their competitors in covert operations. The former emperor lacked the power to put a stop to this. Because his younger brother left the royal family after he inherited the throne, he had to plead with him to reconsider but still failed to do so.

His younger sibling is a gifted cultivator and strategist. But regrettably, this brother of his prefers to travel than join a certain sect. He had accompanied his sworn brother, who shared his love of combat. But because of the dire situation in the palace, he was obliged to summon him back to the capital due to his present predicament.

The most devoted subordinate was the principal eunuch, who had been working for the previous emperor since he was just a prince.

At the Main Palace, where the sick Emperor resides...

On the enormous bed with the gold-colored linens is a frail man. Every item he uses and wears has a dragon motif on it. This denotes his position as the supreme ruler of all people. Sadly, this elderly monarch looked like he was in his eighties even though he was only in his mid-fifties. He had long since lost his black hair. Now, all that’s left of his body is bones and skin. He has already taken one step toward his death.

The Old Emperor murmured, “Xiao Ki...”

.....

An elderly eunuch who resembles the Old Emperor in nearly every way kneeled beside his master’s bedside. For the Old Emperor, he would gather all the news from both within and outside the Imperial Palace.

“You call me, master?”

“You can report what you’ve gathered. Is there any prince that is worthy of seating in this Zhen’s throne?”

The elderly Eunuch chose not to respond since he was aware that no princes exist who are qualified to hold the throne. They have no aptitude for guiding the Human Race since they are all fundamentally corrupt. The elderly monarch received an adequate response from the old servant’s decision to remain silent. He is also aware that none of his sons have any talent. Dedicated to leading the entire race.

The Old Emperor finally decided, “Xiao Ki... Can you call back my younger brother who ran away from home? If it is he who took my place after I die, I would be able to smile in my eternal slumber.”

Sobs~

“As you wish, Your Majesty!” said the Old Eunuch.

He was the old emperor’s obedient servant and was aware of every decision his lord took. Any of his sons may have plotted against the present emperor, but this illness was something he was born with. The old eunuch had no methods of extending his life, therefore this is how he would have died naturally. His lord has such a short amount of time left. Before escorting his master to the goal he set out to accomplish, he must first grant his requests.

The old eunuch took the communication orb from the young king, Wen Hong, and left it behind before leaving the Main Palace. He then headed to the Treasury where it was hidden. The former little prince stopped using the Wen surname and began using just the Hong name and left the palace meanwhile his master ascended to the throne. Before departing the Wen royal family, the young prince left his older brother one communication orb. The elderly eunuch was present when he and his lord bid the young prince farewell, and as a result, he is aware of the existence of the communication orb.

The old eunuch used this orb to contact the little prince...

“Little Prince... Please go back. Master no longer had enough time. His descendants are all vile and they couldn’t wait for him to die. I beg the little prince. Please help us... The master is already dying...”

The one on the other side of the communication crystal only a few words,

{I’ll return.}???????????????????????. c??m

Meanwhile at the other palaces owned by the royal princes. Most royal descendants had their own courtyard within the Imperial Palace. The Main Palace was where several of them had left spies. All living royal descendants were therefore aware of these things when the Old Eunuch made his move.

“The Main Palace old eunuch had made his move? What did he do?”

“Answering to the Crown Prince... He took an orb out from the Royal treasury to contact someone. That object might be the one called a Communication Crystal.”

“Communication Crystal? What kind of thing is that?”

“It is a special object used by unique people known as cultivators. This servant doesn’t know whom he had contacted but... That person must definitely be a cultivator. I hope the Prince will be careful.”

“No problem. So what if he called for a cultivator? Since they called for one, why couldn’t we hire one as well? I heard a special clan called Xie had been wanting to meet my imperial father. Send a message to them that I, the Crown Prince, am willing to listen to their demands. In exchange, they must give me the throne.”

“It will be all you will, your highness!”

Meanwhile, at the capital’s most lively place, Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie held hands ignoring all eyes on them. None of the others dare to mess with this high-face value pair as they were obviously wearing Taoist robes from two Great sects.

While holding a few boxes of sweets and pastries, Yun Xiajie asked his Dao Companion, “It’s almost time for lunch. Jing’er what do you want to eat?”

“Is there a hotpot restaurant in this place? I want to eat that,” answered Bai Wuan while eating some pancakes in his hands. “I can’t finish this anymore, A’Xia.”

Yun Xiajie had been used to this and ate the half-eaten pancake placed in front of him. His handsome face remained expressionless but his eyes looked gentle as he glanced at his lover.

“Let’s go. I know where the Hotspot restaurant is located,” said Yun Xiajie as the two of them walked toward the direction where the target restaurant was located.

Somewhere within the crowd, a few cultivators wearing black and red robes were watching them from a distance. They obviously have no good intentions at all.

“Those two... are they young cultivators from the Bai Lengshui Sect and Lan Zhuayun Sect?”

“What should we do? Brother, grabbed them?”

“Not in broad light. Let’s do it at night!”

“Sigh~ these poor little weaklings. I cannot understand why they let such young cultivators roam around alone.”

“Who cares... As long as we presented them as presents to the Clan Master. Anyway, be careful. Late those great sects had learned the rumor about us grabbing their young disciples and placing some guards on them. We need to make sure these two aren’t guarded before we make our move.”

“I will investigate it.”

This group of men disappeared collectively. The couple who was heading to the restaurant glanced in that direction with cold eyes.

Bai Wuan says, “Targeting us? Do they not want to live anymore?”

“They are from Xie Clan. It’s the recent rumors about them kidnapping young disciples of the great sects. They must have recognized our Taoist robes,” said Yun Xiajie but he obviously wasn’t that much interested in this kind of people. “Let’s eat first, Jing’er.”

“Okay~ let’s go!” responded Bai Wuan as they still continued their plans to eat Hotspot for lunch.

That evening, Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie made a deliberate decision to stay at a modest inn with fewer guests. They had intended to bribe the innkeeper and persuade the guests to stay somewhere else.

Only Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie remained at the small inn, with the exception of Bai Wuan’s puppet who served as the inn’s proprietor. The rest had left ahead of time. They made a large number of purchases in the market, then had dinner at the inn. This gives the inn a somewhat vacant appearance. However, Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie continued to have their meals in silence while acting as if nothing had changed.

The bunch of rats they had been waiting for to show up had now taken the bait. They entered the small inn under the guise of guests. However, they behaved more in a gangster or hooligan fashion. The inn was entered by at least five male cultivators. However, Yun Xiajie and Bai Wuan feigned not be concerned about them.

“Owner, your place looks wrecked. Just leave and give us the place.”

The puppet responded, “There are still... C-Customers I can’t...”

“Just leave! Do you want to die!?”

Two unexpected visitors entered the inn as the Xie Clan fools were angrily threatening the puppet at the reception. They were obviously not affiliated with any sect or clan because they were wearing Taoist robes without crests. They are rogue cultivators.

The leading man has a slightly savage yet exquisite appearance. He was dressed in a charcoal gray robe that looked magnificent on him. He scans the room of the inn with his keen glance. He was a little taken aback to witness such a lifelike puppet and a pair of young cultivators whose power is even stronger than his, and he glared bitterly at the five idiots playing like sh*t. He was Wen Hong, the younger brother of the current dynasty’s emperor and the former Wen Royal Family’s little prince.

Behind him, his sworn younger brother entered the inn too late and failed to observe what was going on inside. He approached his older brother, disregarding everybody else in the area. This is the person who would be referred to as the Hong Dynasty’s Prime Minister in the future.

“Dage, what’s wrong? Why did you choose this small inn to stay in? I even saw the owner of this place has a luxurious meal with his family at that big restaurant over there. I was told that it was sold to a young couple instead.”

“Sold the property to a young couple?”

Wen Hong observes Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie who continue to eat without care for their surroundings. The latter keeps placing food in his lover’s bowl without saying a word.

Wen Hong said, “I see. I’m sorry to bother you. We shall take our leave.”

“Stay. If you want to. Leave. If you don’t.” said Bai Wuan.

On the other hand, Wen Hong thought that he was being asked to serve as the door guard. The five villains divided the group into two as they exchanged glances with only the leader not making his move. While the second group sought to seize possession of the inn’s only door, the first two were assigned the task of attacking Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie.

“Kidnap these two brats!!”

“Yes! Boss!!!”

The man who arrived at the inn late and couldn’t understand the situation, “Eh? What is happening in this place? Dage, should we help those children?”

Wen Hong responds, “You watch carefully with your eyes. What will happen next is the truth.”

The two guys who were after them were immediately attacked by the erstwhile little prince. There is a bit too large of a strength difference. While Wen Hong is at the Early stage of the Golden Core Stage, these five blokes were only in the Qi Gathering Stage. It resembled an adult and child brawl. On the other hand, the two men who attacked the young couple had it worse. These men’s predicament was worse than that of the other gang that attacked Wen Hong.

The two men tripped into the air before they even got close to Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie’s table because they instantly felt numbness over their entire bodies. They watched as the ice on the tips of their fingers progressively grew, growing higher and higher until they eventually turned into ice sculptures. It was simply death as they hit the ground.
