943 15.05 Vearth – Nether System: Reunion with the Evergreen Family

Happiness rarely lasts for very long. These past three months have been like heaven on earth for the family of Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie. There is only one more week left until the Second Trial’s final phase is scheduled to begin. Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie would send their children off to school every day. Ye Jingxia attends his daily training with the family’s elders, the twins attend kindergarten. The eldest would study medicine with his grandfather Mo Yue in the morning, and afterward, he would train in spatial abilities with his grandfather Hei Sian.

Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie are once again spending time together as a couple today. They reached the highest tree with white silvery leaves while strolling hand in hand in Vearth. Before Vearth was founded, Shen Siwang and Ye Xiajie planted this tree of life. This tree purified not only the air but also emits pure qi which immortals need for cultivation. Hei Anjing was having a good time swinging on one of the tree’s limbs with his husband pushing him lightly behind.

Hei Anjing spoke, “A’Xia, help me push the swing.”

“Sure. Hold on tight.” Ye Xiajie said.

He seldom smiles, and when he does, it’s just for his spouse and their children to see. His silver-eyed, attractive partner is in front of him as his red eyes with shadowy rings stare at him full of love. He exhibited affectionate facial expressions, something you wouldn’t anticipate from the most malevolent god there is.

But suddenly they heard someone yelling a name they had nearly forgotten, the two were enjoying their time together. As this couple only had a few names they had used on the other worlds, the name that was called upon was one of them.

“Xuebao? Boss Meizhou?” The owner of a surprised voice calls. .

Turning around, Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie saw a young guy with green eyes staring at them with a bewildered expression. Even some tears are gathering in the outer corners of his eyes.

“It’s you. So you choose to ascend. That’s good.”

…..

Hei Anjing noticed the face of this man and immediately recognized him. One of the few companions he gained while traveling through the Trial of Resurrection is him. The foolish rabbit transmigrator from the Primitive World that Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie had encountered is none other than this green-eyed guy. That was the so-called Tuzi rabbit beastman. Lucas Evergreen is his true name. He is married to two beastmen: Lang, a wolf, and Xiong, a bear.

When Lucas Evergreen recognized the person’s trademark cheeky smile and silver eyes in those phoenix-shaped eyes, he realized he hadn’t mistakenly acquired them. This is Xuebao, his friend, and savior.

“It’s really, Xuebao! Wuwuwu~ I missed you so much!” Lucas Evergreen ran towards Hei Anjing intending to hug him all Ye Xiajie grabbed his back collar preventing him from hugging his wife.

Ye Xiajie spoke coldly, “Stupid Rabbit! Stop hugging my wife!”

At first, Lucas Evergreen didn’t recognize Ye Xiajie. His physical appearance is distinct from Meizhou’s. While his eyes were painted the same shade of blood, he still has the appearance of an immortal with a demonic feel. Yet, the Meizhou from his recollections had obsidian eyes; otherwise, they did not resemble one another at all, save for the intense obsession that stopped him from ever touching his mate.

“Eh? Are you… Meizhou? Impossible! How can you look… this differently? Even your eyes turned scarlet… Wait! I heard only the Ye Gui race have such eyes. Are you a Ye Gui!? Oh no! You need to hide… What if someone saw you and caught you? I heard all Ye Gui Race are considered Sinners in Vearth.” Lucas said.

“Don’t worry. No one dares to capture my husband in this place.” Hei Anjing said.

He was dangling like a caught cat with Ye Xiajie grabbing his back collar. The difference in height had never changed. Lucas is still the smallest among them.

Lucas spoke, “Excuse me. Can you put me down please?”

“A’Xia put him down.” Hei Anjing said.

As soon as Ye Xiajie let go of Lucas Evergreen, he immediately ran behind Hei Anjing. This is an instinctive reaction he does whenever Meizhou is around. He is still afraid of this man even in another world.

Hei Anjing spoke, “Tutu… Or should I call you Lucas? Could you not call me Xuebao anymore? We are no longer in that world after all. Call me Anjing or Hei Anjing. This is Meizhou. This is his real appearance so get used to it. His name is Ye Xiajie. It’s been a long time. I thought you wouldn’t choose to ascend. Where are Lang and Xiong?”

“A’Lang and A’Xiong went to report to Lord Cao. We now work for the God System as a team. Just got back from another world. Jing-ge, we’ve already met Big Brother Lou (Shiyi) and Ming-ge (Sheya). We’ve heard you wouldn’t be back soon. It’s unexpected to see you guys now. They said it would be a long time before you came back.” Lucas Evergreen said.

Ye Xiajie pulled out Lucas behind his wife and placed him at a distance away from his beloved. Lucas Evergreen had no other choice but to helplessly accept his fate as his friend’s mate had always been an extremely jealous type and an unreasonable one.

Hei Anjing said, “We are on a short vacation. We would leave soon too. How are you guys here in Vearth?”

“I had so many things to tell you. Let’s go to my house near here as we were tasked to welcome newcomers in Vearth and guide them on the way. I thought you guys were newcomers at first and wanted to welcome you. Who would think I would be lucky to meet you guys here!” Lucas said as he invited the couple to his house.

Since Lucas Evergreen, Lang Evergreen, and Xiong Evergreen ascended in Vearth, the time has passed. As they don’t actually have a surname to utilize, they adopted their wife’s surname. Though Lang and Xiong expected to be with Tuzi after death, they never expected to be brought into this world. Lord Cao Xingsheng welcomed them and guided them as soon as they opened their eyes to this world.

In the pure water spring, beneath the enormous tree with the silvery leaves, they awoke.

They immediately realized that this was not the world they had come from as soon as they beheld the sight of several realities in front of them. Because this area has many things they had never seen before, some of them were things they had before seen but a few of them were things they had seen and recreated under their mate’s request.

Lucas had brought Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie to a small mansion. It can only be called small considering the palace-like mansion of the Mo Family. But for a small family of Lucas, Lang, and Xiong, this small mansion is big enough for them even if they had children.

The mansion is in modern style with more mirrors and a minimalist design in black and white color. What made it extravagant were the flowers surrounding the house. The tree leaves were made of gold and the flowers were made of gemstones. As if the decorations of the garden are from a fantasy genre, luxurious and expensive.

When Hei Anjing saw the trees with gold leaves and various flowers made of gemstones, his only comment was, “You still like sparkling things. You shouldn’t be born as a rabbit but as a crow instead.”

“But~ it’s pretty right!?” said Lucas Evergreen with a proud and wide grin.

Ye Xiajie stated, “Annoying to the eyes.”

Lucas Evergreen didn’t get offended by their words as he was used to it. As soon as he opened the door to his house he saw his two husbands. Lang was cleaning his weapons, a spear, and a bow while sitting in the living room while Xiong just got out of the kitchen in an apron holding a tray of various flavored tarts that were freshly baked.

“I’m home! A’Lang, A’Xiong! Look who I brought home with me!” As soon as he entered the house, Lucas spoke as he excitedly pulled Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie with him.

At first, Lang Evergreen and Xiong Evergreen were in disbelief. Contrary to Tuzi, they were only able to identify people by their auras because many creatures in Vearth choose to disguise themselves or alter their appearance frequently for either amusement or professional reasons.

Lang and Xiong knelt on one knee as soon as they recognized the auras of Hei Anjing and especially Ye Xiajie. They have a subordinate and lord relationship with the Tribe Captain, in contrast to their wife’s relationship with the Tribe Leader. They immediately greeted Ye Xiajie as before.

“We see the Tribe Captain and the Tribe Leader!” Lang and Xiong greet each other.

Ye Xiajie’s indifferent expression remains but he asked the two to stand and halt any other form of formalities. He and his wife were here as guests.

“Stand. You guys are no longer my subordinates. You are already men who have reached the peak of power. If not you wouldn’t be able to enter Vearth.” Ye Xiajie said.

Lang and Xiong bumped fists with their big boss. Though his appearance is different from how they remember it, his sharp and haughty demeanor was still the same.

“Boss, we heard from Brother Lou that you were out for work and would be gone for a long time. Have you just returned?” Lang asked.

Ye Xiajie responds, “A short vacation. We will be gone soon again.”

“I heard there are lots of sinners who got captured recently. Will the Nether System be okay?” Xiong asked.

Ye Xiajie spoke, “We are lacking a bit of Wardens. Do you want to work for us again?”

He looked at the three men before him. Two of these men were his close subordinates in that Primitive World while the last one is a friend of his wife. They are more trustworthy than recruits from the outside.

Lucas asked, “But I heard the job in the Nether System is dangerous. We have to fight against illegal outsiders and so…”

“Not that dangerous. It will not be that much different from your work in the God System. It just… you had to watch over your mission target much closer. If you deemed him someone that cannot repent you can kill him on the spot. If not watch as a passerby until he completes his Trials.” Hei Anjing said.

Ye Xiajie spoke, “Resources in Nether Mall are much more than in the God System. Moreover, I only accept elites as Wardens. You can work in a group if you want as long as the prisoners won’t escape your grasp.”

“Warden Lou and Yun Ming would be there to guide you if you have problems. Just don’t be too soft-hearted towards prisoners as they were brought to the Nether System because they broke the Divine Laws. They deserve what they should experience in the Netherworld.” Hei Anjing said. “Moreover, I and A’Xia would leave again. We are truly understaffed.”

Lucas Evergreen looked at his two husbands. He had no problem with working for his friends but it was his two husbands who would need to protect him. He was not a fighter after all, more like a healer in their team.

“I don’t mind working for Jing-ge. But I will listen to my husbands.” Lucas said.

Lang and Xiong glance at their former boss and say, “If you need our help then we will help, boss.”

“Good! I will inform Warden Lou and get you guys back into shape. Beings in the Nether System are much stronger than the ones in the God System.” Ye Xiajie said.

Hei Anjing, on the other hand, pulled his friend into the corner and whispered, “If you don’t want to work just let your husbands do it. Since you have two… It wouldn’t be a problem to laze around at work. I’ll cover for you. Hehe~”

“Jing-ge~ I haven’t started working yet and you are already teaching me how to ditch work…”

Lucas Evergreen didn’t know whether to cry or laugh at his friend’s remarks. He only saw Hei Anjing shrug his shoulders nonchalantly but he knew that when it came to working his friend wouldn’t laze that much around as he also didn’t want his husband to be overworked.
