I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot [BL]

Demon King's Castle     

Ye Guiya, the Devil King, no longer reigns. Ye Zihao, the Demon of Pride, now occupies the throne. Devil Fennu and Jin Baihua were welcomed back to the castle by Ye Zihao sitting on the throne. Both of them were astounded, yet their expressions of shock persisted.     

Although Ye Zihao is now concealed by his hood, the two would never mistake him for anybody else because of the unmistakably oppressive and icy air that surrounds him.     

The Devil of Pride, Ye Zihao spoke, "Why did you two return? Aren't you supposed to destroy the Eastern Territory of the human race?"     

The two were under intense pressure from Ye Zihao, and they were forced to kneel down in front of the Devil of Pride who was seated on the throne.     

Ugh!     

Ye Zihao says, "If you're not replying, I assume you don't want to live."     

He carefully raised his right hand over the heads of Jin Baihua and Devil Fennu, but it felt like a guillotine instead. The two who were in front of the Devil of Pride were smothered by such overt and obvious killing intent. Jin Baihua was almost at his breaking point when Fennu, the Demon of Wrath, responded to the king's question.     

Devil Fennu spoke, "We did, but we had to flee because there were rumors that the White Demon was coming across to personally pick up the people on that side. He was beyond us, and staying there would have killed us."     

The tension around Ye Zihao decreased as he learned about the White Demon. As soon as the white demon was mentioned, it seemed as though he understood why they had to withdraw.     

His highness Ye Zihao says, "The White Demon, is it? If it's him then your retreat is excused but... Would he even care about mortals with such diluted bloodline as the Bai Clan? Check for this lord what happened to the East Territory after you departed. If you hide any detail then you know what happens next..."     

"Yes, your highness!" said Devil Fennu and Jin Baihua.     

Jin Baihua had completely crumpled to the ground and was completely boneless once the pressure above them eased. As they departed, Devil Fennu had to carry him away. As they were leaving, he caught a glimpse of the throne's owner's eyes. A well-known shade of white. Jin Baihua couldn't help but take another look because it was so familiar to him, but this time he was unable to see what he had initially seen. So familiar that Jin Baihua couldn't help but tremble instinctively.     

'Silver? Did I see it wrong?' The thoughts of Jin Baihua on his way out.     

The massive formation that had been guarding the Jin Tiangui Sect had vanished by the time Devil Fennu and Jin Baihua reached the Eastern Region. There are simply mounds of lifeless bodies of evil creatures. When they cleared the area, the Heavenly Army destroyed these monsters. There are no longer any sentient beings in the region.     

Devil Fennu mumbled, "We came late. They are no longer around."     

"There are no traces of Ice Elements in the area. It seems that the White Demon didn't come personally as we expected. The remaining territories are the south, west, and central regions. Which should we check next? The south?" asked Jin Baihua.     

Devil Fennu said, "Not the south. I heard the report that the place had been destroyed completely. Even the human called Lu Yi was killed in action. Though his younger brother had gone missing."     

Jin Baihua was a little taken aback to learn that Lu Yi, this dislikable man who openly displays his contempt for him, had suddenly passed away. He wasn't sure of his reaction. Despite their strained connection, the man used to be quite a friend. After all, he is Yun Huaxia's Sworn Brother. Jin Baihua felt a little depressed thinking of how unhappy Yun Huaxia is after finding out that his sworn brother has passed away.     

"I see... So that annoying jerk with a poisonous tongue had died already. It would have been great if my half-brother also died. If only we didn't leave..." grumbled Jin Baihua.     

Devil Fennu said, "Don't worry. I can help you kill him when the time comes."     

"Then I will leave it to you. What should we do next?" asked Jin Baihua.     

Devil Fennu said, "Let's go look for Shulan and his vessel. I feel things aren't going well on our side. Just the fact that the King had gone missing made things chaotic."     

"What do you think his highness would do next? Is he personally going to lead the demons in eradicating the human race?" asked Jin Baihua.     

Devil Fennu said, "It would be better if he took the lead. At least all those low-class demons would follow the orders. If it's just us, only the demons that live in my territory would listen to my words. But all demonic creatures in the Infernal Region listen to the King and his highness Zihao. He is different from us right from the very beginning."         

"Un. He is extremely powerful. Yes, like the White Demon himself." mumbled Jin Baihua.     

---     

Lu Er had been depressed after discovering everything that was underlying his slumber. Somebody is no longer alive. Even his older brother has disappeared, and his sect has been annihilated. He struggled mightily to escape the agony of losing the one person he had ever loved. The elders are unable to soothe him as he steadily loses the desire to live. Even Lu Yier was in a trance after sobbing uncontrollably all night. They are in a terrible state as a group.     

"Elder Shing, what should we do?"     

"I... I don't know now..."     

"Wuwuwu~ father~"     

Someone had broken into their formation at this point and even completely ruined it. Thankfully, it wasn't a bunch of evil beasts but rather people that loomed over them from above. A blur of blue robes flashed past them as one of them dove to the ground. Bai Qiyin was the one who was shocked to see Lu Er still alive after seeing him in such a hopeless position.     

Even Lu Er was caught off guard by the sudden warmth of Bai Qiyin's embrace.     

Bai Qiyin mumbled, "Thank God. Thank you, Brother Lu, for protecting Xiao Er!"     

"Q-Qiqi?" calls Lu Er while dazed.     

Bai Qiyin scolded, "You idiot! You did well. We are still able to see you alive. Don't you know how worried I was when we learned that Big Brother Lu is gone and you were missing! I thought we lost you too!"     

"Erdi! Thank God you are alive. I thought I would never be able to face Dage even if you are gone. Thank you. Thank you for being alive, Lu Er!" said Yun Huaxia as he hugged his wife and Lu Er who looked astonished by their reaction.     

Lu Er couldn't help but sob uncontrollably as he heard what they had to say. He couldn't help but express all of his frustrations and grief by fiercely hugging the two of them. His face is flooded with tears as he says,     

"Qiqi! Brother Hua! My elder brother... My brother is... no more. What should I do now!? Wuwuwu~" said Lu Er.     

"We're here! We will accompany you instead of Dage! We will take care of you as he does. We will care for and protect you as he did. We will be your family if you need us!" said Bai Qiyin and Yun Huaxia.     

The three Sect Masters' sentimental scene was witnessed by everyone. The Jin Tiangui Sect's remaining elders were pleased to see this event. They no longer have to be concerned about their Sect Master returning to the South alone.     

Lu Er getting a new pillar of support for his emotions pleaded with Yun Huaxia and Bai Qiyin.     

"Qiqi, Brother Hua, please accompany me back to the South. I want to look for Big Brother's remains. If there aren't any corpses left, even his weapon is enough for me!" said Lu Er.     

Yun Huaxia with a sad face said, "There is no need to go back. Uncle Xue and Uncle Fan had found Dage in his last moments. It was him who told them about you."     

"Because of Big Brother Lu's words, we knew that your group was on the way to the West Territory and found you right away. It was all thanks to him. In the end, his thoughts were all about your safety." Bai Qiyin said.     

Lu Er, "R-Really?"     

In front of everyone, Xue Yueguang took out the ice coffin he had created to encase Lu Yi's body.      

One may still recognize his face and characteristics even though his corpse was missing two limbs and had several wounds.     

Xue Yueguang said, "I placed the child's body in an ice coffin to prevent it from rotting. But his arms were already gone when we saw him... I'm sorry..."     

"No. Please don't apologize Senior. This is enough. Having the Great Master's corpse like this is lucky enough." Elder Shing said as he had longed to kneel before the ice coffin that held Lu Yi's body. The other elders including Lu Yier, Lu Er, Yun Huaxia, and Bai Qiyin surrounded the coffin.         

Even though they were all relieved they could still save Lu Yi's corpse, they were all heartbroken by his death. The majority of cultivators who battled the demonic beasts were completely devoured, leaving not a single bone behind. The remaining components of Lu Yi's corpse are still present even if two of the arms are gone. They had obtained enough from those vile beasts for them to be satisfied.     

"BIG BROTHER!! WUWUWU~"     

Yun Huaxia stopped Lu Er just as he was about to hug his older brother's body. Sect Master Yun could only prevent Lu Er from wanting to embrace his brother's body because he was fearful of damaging the remains of his sworn brother.     

Another moment of mourning appears in the area. The children and the other cultivators are free to grieve for their lost loved ones, friends, and leaders as Xue Yueguang and Fan Yanyu withdraw. They accepted the responsibility of keeping them covertly safe from their surroundings.     

Before returning to the western areas, these people had made the decision to mourn here for an additional full day. Xue Yueguang and Fan Yanyu individually dealt with the incoming demonic monsters to keep this group safe and made sure they could never return to the area where the group was mourning.     

It was only the next day that they decided to return to the Lan Zhuayun Sect.     

---     

Back in the Western City,     

At the Crimson Cloud Peak...     

After treating Bai Lili and Jin Shiyan, the rest of them went home to take their rest after eating lunch. It was only after the guests had taken their leave that Chun Hongyun-Jun went home with Cao Roulan following behind him like a servant.     

As soon as Hei Anjing saw the young lady, he recognized that this girl was a vessel of the devil. A high-ranking devil is similar to that of Tanlan, Jidu, and Qingyu. Especially when her eyes were glowing bright red which only Devils possessed.     

Hei Anjing turned a blind eye to the devil after giving it a glance and smiled at his husband.     

"Your back. I've saved some lunch for you. Come over and eat, my love." Hei Anjing said.     

Before going inside to dine, Xia Jieye came up to him and kissed him on the forehead. Demon Baoshi, on the other hand, was frightened when he saw Hei Anjing's appearance up close. He appeared to be having trouble believing what he was witnessing. He was so intent on Hei Anjing that he had even forgotten to use proper etiquette.     

Devil Baoshi mumbled instinctively, "Big Brother Zi... Hmpfff!"     

He was silenced by a spell cast by Hei Anjing, so Xia Jieye cannot hear what he is about to say. Demon Baoshi was rendered speechless and scared by Hei Anjing's teasing smile and silent gesture when directed at him.     

Devil Baoshi's thoughts, 'This is impossible! How can he have the same eye color as him...!?'
