Chapter 202 - 7.0.2 Prologue - In The System Space Before Th

After the strangers were thrown out of the space by Mo Baojun, Hei Anjing looked at his uncle in disbelief. He wasn't able to stop him as his friends were thrown out before he could speak a word. Shen Siwang saw his nephew's stunned expression after his wife had brought out those three younglings to have a private space for their family.

Shen Siwang pinched his wife's waist and whispered,

"Wifey~ look at our dearest nephew. He seems to be pouting right now. Haha~

"

Mo Baojun blinked his eyes innocently as he looked at his nephew.

"Is uncle supposed to not throw them out?

" asked Mo Baojun.

Hei Anjing sighed and answered,

"We could have asked them to leave but either way it's already done. Uncles and Dad, why did you pretend to be Lucas and his lovers? It's no wonder Jue-ge no longer showed themselves when we reached the base.

"

"Well~ it is not that he didn't want to meet you but... Your uncle had locked the authority of the space element in that world when we descended.

" said his dad.

"Dad, where's my father then?

" asked Hei Anjing.

Mo Yue smiled and replied,

"Left him behind in the Nether System. He should be coming over right now.

"

As soon as Mo Baojun finished his words, Hei Sian appeared in the space. He took the little bun from his wife's lap and played a staring game with the little bun.

Hei Sian asked,

"Is this fat bun, my grandson?

"

"Daddy, who is this old man?

" asked Xiao Jing.

"Yes, father. It is your grandson.

"

"Yes, baby it is your other grandpa.

"

Hei Anjing replied to his father and his son.

They watched Hei Sian smirk and said to Shen Siwang,

"A'Wang look I have a grandson! Hehe~

"

"I have two sons. I'll have more grandchildren than you in the future!

" retorted Shen Siwang.

Hei Sian gritted his teeth and said,

"Your sons don't even have partners!

"

"That's why I said in the future!?

" replied Shen Siwang.

This time these two close friends were glaring at each other fighting over childish things. Like I have more children than yours!

/ So what!? I already have a grandson!

Mo Yue and Mo Baojun, who hate noise, are now trying to turn a deaf ear to their husbands' childish quarrels over their heads. Ye Jingxia who is being carried by his grandpa watches as the two adults fight verbally like children of his age.

"Hehehe~ daddy says to punish noisy people. Ei!

" said Ye Jingxia as he turned his Grandpa Hei and Granduncle Shen into Ice statues. The noise halted as he did.

Mo Yue and Mo Baojun clap lightly at their youngest descendants' antics of playfulness and cuteness.

"Good Job, Xiao Xiaxia!

" said Mo Yue.

Mo Baojun unfroze the two childish old men who both move their heads to look at the laughing baby in Hei Sian's arm.

Thoughts of the two grandfathers. 'Naughty little devil.'

Mo Baojun spoke,

"Play with Xiao Xiaxia at the Training Space for a bit.

"

"Sure.

" The two replied before suddenly disappearing from the space together with Ye Jingxia.

As soon as Ye Jingxia had disappeared together with his father and uncle, Hei Anjing fell boneless on the couch with a bloodless appearance. His current soul state is a bit unstable. Mo Yue and Mo Baojun hurriedly went to his side.

Mo Yue asked in a panic,

"Baobei, how's Jing'er?

"

Mo Baojun runs his qi in his nephew's soul. He checked his current soul state only for a frown to appear on his ethereal face.

"His soul is half spent. Jing'er I've allowed you to use a quarter of your soul to protect the soul core of your other half. What did you do with the other quarter?

" asked Mo Baojun as he stared at his nephew's weakened state with nervousness within those cold cerulean eyes.

Hei Anjing lightly bit his lower lips but didn't dare to lie to his uncle.

"Refined it together with the bloodstone. To protect the vessel of A'Xia from inside and outside elements,

" responded Hei Anjing.

Mo Yue was shocked by what he heard. Splitting soul fragments is something Hei Sian taught his son and disciple but refining soul is something only Mo Baojun knows. But there is no way his little brother would teach his own nephew about this forbidden practice as it harms the caster more.

As expected Mo Baojun's expression turned cold and gloomy with Hei Anjing's answer.

"You entered the forbidden library without permission! And even read the script for dark smithing! Those were only used for punishing devils and fallen gods.

"

"But If used properly it could be used for protection of the soul core at the expense of one's soul.

"

Hei Anjing's reply rendered the two adults in front of him.

"Please don't use our bloodline's immortality in this way. Injuring your soul by your own means is against the rules of origin. What if you could no longer...

Enough of this! Where is that bloodstone? Is it with your other half's vessel? I will replace a soul in it as a source and only use your soul fragment as a guide.

Gege helped me stabilize his soul. Even if his cultivation decreases it's better than his soul core shattering!

" said Mo Baojun.

With a single wave of his hands, the space distorted and the couches on the area disappear. Mo Baojun brought out 8 glowing soul-stabilizing stones. It covered the 8 corners of the formation with Hei Anjing at the center mediating.

Mo Yue sat to the south while Mo Baojun to the north. They were the main pillars of the formation and kept sending their qis towards Hei Anjing's soul. The one at the center knew what he needed to do and closed his eyes as he meditated.

This is a formation that will allow one to pass on their true qi to another person but the requirements of it need the receiver to have a blood connection to the pillar. If there is no blood connection, the backlash would happen and one of them would die.

This is a formation that allows one to extend the life of your own descendants or family. The soul stones within the formation turn to specks of dust one at every hour. It took eight whole hours for the formation to deactivate.

Once every soul stone had faded to ashes, Mo Yue and Mo Baojun were covered in sweat. They are a bit tired but that's all. When they opened their eyes, they saw Hei Anjing's soul once again solidified and his state became healthy once again.

Mo Yue smiles when he sees his son back to being healthy.

"Good. His soul stabilized.

"

"Gege, it's only a temporary measure. He will only return to normal when all his soul fragments return to him. From being an Immortal God his cultivation had dropped to being a Godking. It will continue to drop unless his soul is complete.

" said Mo Baojun.

Mo Yue grips his hands,

"I know. That bastard took a fragment of Jing'er's soul. We need to find him but only Ye Xiajie could. But that bitch killed her son and even blamed mine! That couple is insane!

"

"I know. I hope Jing'er choosing him won't be wrong. If not... I could only destroy all those worlds which are rumored to be connected to that race. Did they think that by targeting my family I would choose to ignore them! They're dreaming. If not for A'Wang that race would no longer exist!

" said Mo Baojun.

Mo Yue approached his angered younger brother. He rubs his hair comfortingly as he sits beside him looking at his son not far from them.

"I know. We could do that as the last option. If Ye Xiajie failed the trial then... we will no longer hold back. Failing the trial means... he had no right to become Jing'er's other half.

" said Mo Yue as his tone is stern and serious.

Mo Baojun lightly nodded and murmured,

"Either way, that race is annoying as it is.

"

---

Eight hours later.

Hei Anjing finally finished his cultivation. After his weakening was halted, he opened his eyes to see his family looking at him, enjoying their tea time without him.

Hei Sian talks to his son while feeding his grandson who is now sitting on his wife's lap.

"We've waited until you woke up before leaving. Xiao Xia wanted to say goodbye. Jing'er I've visited A'Ye thanks to the bloodstone you've given before his situation is more stable than before. He should be waking up soon.

"

Hei Anjing nods at his father without speaking a word. Only when a piece of white leaf fell in front of him that he noticed the towering tree that appeared out of nowhere within the space. He recognized what kind of tree this is. It is a sapling called the tree of life. The mature tree of life can cover the whole God System. It has the effect of growing life which is extremely helpful for increasing cultivation and sustaining a soul.

For Hei Anjing's current state, this tree is the most helpful thing for him. But growing this kind of thing requires a lot of resources. Though this tree of life is still a sapling, the resources it needs could equalize the world's energy of a star with a rank of at least C. For it to grow this much in a span of a few hours it will require the blood essence of a higher tier god.

Knowing this he looked back at his family sitting smiling while playing with his son, Ye Jingxia. The tree of life had grown four times based on its current high. It means that it needs four different blood essences to make it grow this big. His parents are counted as two and his uncles as two as well.

Clearly, they've used their blood essence which contains their true qi for the tree. This is because the tree would be useful for him. Hei Anjing understood but he didn't speak a word. Thank you between families aren't needed. This is something they would do as a family.

Mo Baojun finally spoke,

"It's time to leave. Xiao Xiaxia says bye-bye to daddy.

"

Ye Jingxia steps down from his Grandpa Yue's lap and runs towards his daddy. He hugs his neck while lightly sobbing. Clearly, the elders had explained to the little bun that he needs to come with him for safety purposes. This is why the little bun isn't throwing any tantrums.

Ye Jingxia whimpers,

"Daddy~ stay safe. I love you. Tell father that Xiao Jing loves him as well. Xiao Jing will be back soon~,

" said the little bun before kissing his daddy's cheeks.

Hei Anjing smiles at his baby and kisses him on his forehead,

"Daddy and father love you the most. Listen to your grandpas and granduncles okay?

"

"Okay. Xiao Jing promises,

" said Ye Jingxia.

Mo Yue and Hei Sian approached the father and son, hugging the two within their embrace.

"We'll wait for you to bring back your other half home,

" said Mo Yue.

Hei Sian says,

"Don't worry about Xiao Xiaxia, we will look after him well.

"

"We'll leave a communication stone here. You can talk to him anytime you want,

" said Mo Yue before picking up his grandson from his son's arms.

Next, Mo Baojun and Shen Siwang walked towards him. Shen Siwang lightly ruffles his nephew's head with a pampering smile. Mo Baojun on the other hand had flicked his forehead lightly.

"With your soul already stabilized to Godking, the seals on your soul are gone. I've removed it for you. You might still need to control your cultivation when entering low to mid-tier worlds, but the restrictions are completely gone when you're inside a high-tier world. Hold back a bit, the repairers from the God System had been all busy lately.

" said Shen Siwang.

Mo Baojun stared at his nephew without an expression. Since he had no emotion on his face most people would feel nervous in front of him but Hei Anjing just gave his uncle a mischievous smile. He knew that his uncle was just worried about him.

"Uncle. I will be fine. The promise... it will come true.

" said Hei Anjing.

Mo Baojun squinted his eyes narrowly. He flicked his nephew's forehead harder this time and a red mark was left on his forehead.

"Cocky brat. Take care,

" said Mo Baojun before walking away. Shen Siwang softly rubs Hei Anjing his swollen forehead and it instantly heals the red mark.

The four adults plus his son disappeared from the space after saying their farewells. He sent a telepathic message to his system and informed the rest that they could return. When Zhi Yue and the other two had teleported back to the space, their actions were a bit stiff, afraid that the Ruler Gods were still around. Only when they saw that Hei Anjing is the only one around and a tall weird looking tree suddenly appeared that they calmed down for a second.

The three looked up at the white towering tree in front of them. Among the three only Liu Yan recognized the tree, as this one was the first time he remembered upon entering the God System.

Liu Yan murmured,

"This is a sapling of the Life Tree. How could this be here?

"

"The tree of life!? The real thing!?

" exclaimed Baize. As an old god, he knew how precious this tree was. A sapling at this height can be said to be equal to one A rank world.

Hei Anjing nonchalantly replied,

"It's real. Uncle gave it to me. I'll be moving it inside my dimensional space before entering the next world.

" he said before standing up and patting these wrinkled clothes smoothly.

Only Zhi Yue noticed that his young master was gone.

"Did the young master go home?

" asked Zhi Yue lethargically.

Hei Anjing pats his back and said,

"You can come with me when I brought A'Xia home and visit your nephew. In the future, we would be living here anyway.

"

After comforting Zhi Yue for missing his little nephew, Hei Anjing finally has some time to talk with baize.

"Let's talk business. Baize, my uncle gave me the authority to lessen your sentence. As long as you fulfill the tasks I will give you, your freedom can be given and your record would be cleared as well. Would you like to hear your tasks?

" said Hei Anjing with a sly smile on his beautiful face.

A cautious person like Baize hesitated for a moment before making his decision. He wanted to say that he needs to think about it for a while when his host butts in his business and agrees for him instead.

Liu Yan raised his hand,

"Lord Hei. Xiaobai agrees! I will be in his place instead.

"

Hei Anjing shook hands with Liu Yan and said,

"Contract complete. With Executioner Zhi Yue as a witness, the contract between the God of Destruction, Hei Anjing, and the host-system duo, Host Liu Yan and System Baize is made.

Party B is eligible to complete the tasks Party A would give. In exchange, Party A will be provided Party B the authority to ship in their human form at any time.

Party A would give the promise of not bringing any harm to any members of Party B and would be responsible for any accident that may occur during the mission.

Mission completion would be provided by an additional reward from Party A to Party B.

Party A had the authority to end the contract if needed and compensation would be given.

When the contract had been fulfilled, Party A would give Party B the freedom he originally possessed. The contract can be called off at all times as long as Party B provided a reasonable explanation for the cancellation.

"

Liu Yan and Baize's eyes gleam with excitement and happiness. The content of the contract had been extremely friendly on their side.

The two responded,

"We agreed to the contract.

"

After speaking of the contents of their first mission, the pair happily return to the God System and do their task. They weren't told to stop doing their world-hopping mission. As long as the pair don't forget to report regularly the contract would be active. Hei Anjing sat at the roots of the tree of life, he leaned his back on the tree's trunk and looked at the horizon blankly. Zhi Yue had already returned to his system moon avatar form, hovering next to his host.

"Yue. In the next world be sure to gather world energy before we leave. Then use the collected world energy to nourish the tree of life.

"

I will remember this task. Do you wish to choose the next world or take a rest first?

"I will choose a B rank world for world energy this time. The tree of life would be more helpful to A'Xia once it grew more,

" said Hei Anjing and grabbed a glowing violet star.

"Give me the world plot for this one, Yue.

"

2nd Violet Star: Isekai World

World Plot: An Isekai World, Two Saints were summoned in another world. One is a young lady whose appearance is only average yet ambitious and the other is an extremely cold yet beautiful man who looks like a woman but is a man.

Summoned in the world to become a Saintess, but no one between the two knew who was the real saint. Is it the lady or the gentlemen, who is the real saint?

Hei Anjing raised his eyebrow in amazement,

"Don't tell me I would be one of the saintess candidates in this world?

"

This... The possibility for that option is higher. Since this is a B rank world it might require you to enter a vessel in an important role.

"But in the end the vessel I would be in is still a cannon fodder.

"

That cannot be avoided, host. Moreover, since the seals in you had been removed the allocation of the skill list is being refreshed. It takes a long time to fix it. There is an option of increasing the usual 5 redemption tickets to 15 for this problem but you would have the option of learning a free skill for this world. What would the host like to choose?

"I'm not in the mood for training. Just choose the second option and let's enter the next world right away.

"

Host, I will now begin the transfer please grab the star

Hei Anjing grabbed the violet star and squeezed it with both hands. It started to glow once System Yue had begun the transfer. But before the transfer is complete he puts the tree of life inside his dimensional space. A glint of light sparkles from his black snowflake earring.

Transferring in 10….9….5….2…1

Transfer Complete!

Then the figure of the hovering moon and Hei Anjing instantly twirl and their figures enter the glowing violet star. They've left the system space once again.
