The group of five invisible souls hovers in the sky watching Tuzi breakdown upon hearing their disappearance. This little group is now added with a baby milk bun called Ye Jingxia. After detaching their souls to their vessel they now only have their souls protected by the system.
Ye Jingxia's soul regressed back to the age of 5. He was already 15 when his parents and uncles decided to leave the world. At the age of 5 he already knows that he and his parents are not normal beings. They weren't beastmen like what he thought they were. The family of three is even different from his grandfather Zhubao and granduncle Anbao. Not original residents of the world, he only believed them once he heard the voice of the world spoke to him.
This voice of the world is what his grandfather and granduncle calls Beast God but his Daddy and Father never show fear towards the Beast God much less respect them as their Gods. They are not even humans and he is not as well.
Ye Jingxia while in the arms of his father, Ye Xiajie. "Daddy, Father, why are we not bringing Uncle Tutu with us? Isn't he a foreign soul as well?" he asked.
Then the man with long black hair, sharp but captivating features paired with cold obsidian eyes smiled at him tenderly. This is his father named Ye Xiajie, "He is indeed a foreign soul. But Xiao Jing should know the difference between him and us?"
"Is it because Uncle Tutu and the rest are original residents of this world that they couldn't leave easily like us? Or is it because they are mortals while we are Gods?" asked Ye Jingxia.
Hei Anjing smirked at his child and lightly poke those fat cheeks, "I know that our baby has too many questions and is curious about almost everything. Don't worry daddy will answer all your questions later. As for your Uncle Tutu you might see him again in the future. Now go say bye bye to your father he needs to go." he said to their son.
Ye Jingxia knew that he would be separated from his father for a while but his daddy explained to him that he would be able to meet him again in the next world though he might not remember him by then, he would still be his father. Moreover Uncle Lou and Uncle Yun will be there as well though their appearance would no longer be the same. That's what his Uncle Yue had explained to him before. Ye Jingxia looked at his father, using his small hands he held on his father's face and kissed on his cheeks on both sides.
"Father. See you later. Don't worry Xiao Jing will still love father even if you don't have memories. Xiao Jing promise!" There's a small smile on the lips of the boy.
As expected, because of the Mo Bloodline the child possesses, it was quite hard for Ye Jingxia to express his emotions. After all, he was born with initiate cold personality like his daddy, Hei Anjing. Unless he meets the person whom he would be able to move his heart. Except for a few like his parents and close family relatives, even the small smile he gave his father would be impossible to be seen by strangers.
Ye Xiajie smiles as well and kisses the boy's forehead adoringly. "Father might forget about Xiao Jing for a while but father will definitely remember Xiao Jing slowly. Stay with your daddy and don't believe strangers okay?"
"I will stay away from strangers. Bye-bye~" said Ye Jingxia.
Ye Xiajie nodded in satisfaction as he then passed the child on his wife.
"Baby~ we need to go soon. Be careful okay?" said Ye Xiajie as he kissed the lips of his wife.
Hei Anjing kissed him back and then replied, "You're the one they've targeted. Be careful, my love."
Afterwards this little group of theirs left the world. As soon as they left the star they were split into three teams. Ye Xiajie left on his own. Warden Lou left together with his prisoner, Yun Ming. Meanwhile Hei Anjing returned to Zhi Yue's system space with a little boy in his arms. As for why Ye Jingxia had regressed is to keep him in the state where his qi is the purest. The boy still needs to begin his cultivation under his daddy's guidance. The primitive world isn't really a compatible place to cultivate. If they stayed in that world until their vessels died, Ye Jingxia's godly qi would be spent by then and he would become a normal human being like the rest.
To prevent this Hei Anjing and his husband, Ye Xiajie decided to leave the world ahead of time. This is the real reason why they left early right after Zhubao and Anbao died. The original Xuebao's only remaining regret is his family. Once his family left the world, he would no longer have any attachment left and Hei Anjing would be able to leave that star anytime he wanted.

Returning to the System Space.
A space full of galaxies and stars is what Ye Jingxia saw the moment he opened his eyes. The horizon from all sides is full of varying colors of galaxies and stars. Obviously the child knows that in every galaxy there would be countless worlds hidden within it and some of those stars had their own worlds and storyline to accomplish. For a newly born deity, Ye Jingxia's knowledge about worlds is limited. Thanks to the bloodline of Mo within his veins his intelligence quotient is initially high which makes him curious about things that are new to his eyes.
"Daddy! This place is so beautiful~ So many worlds. Daddy???"
Ye Jingxia was stunned to see a young man in his twenties with the same obsidian hair and celestial blue eyes like his. They look so similar that it wouldn't be hard for others to call them brothers instead of father and son. This is because his daddy looks so young. Unlike his daddy's soul appearance where his hair is light brown and his eyes were silver, Ye Jingxia couldn't understand why his father's appearance is different right now.
"Daddy? Are you daddy?" asked Ye Jingxia while confused.
Hei Anjing smiled at his silly little bun when the boy saw his human form.
"Yes. It is daddy. Now daddy will explain things for our Xiao Jing to understand. First is that what Xiao Jing is seeing right now is daddy's human form. Xiao Jing's current form is your human form as well as Xiao Jing haven't started his cultivation yet. There is so much to explain and daddy is too lazy to explain things so~ I will just pass the common information directly to our Xiao Jing's little head as memories. Don't worry baby it won't hurt~" said Hei Anjing as he touched the boy's forehead with his. He shared necessary common information about their world, about cultivation and the common sense of the two systems.
It took a while for Ye Jingxia to process and understand everything. He fell on a shallow meditative state with his eyes close as his small figure fell on his daddy's embrace.
---
A week later.
Ye Jingxia's azure eyes were once again revealed in the world. His eyes no longer show ignorance of an ordinary being. There's a hint of indifference and aloofness at his stares.
"Daddy?" calls Ye Jingxia.
"Hmm~"
Ye Jingxia asked, "Who is stronger than you and father?"
[Actually, I am very interested in that as well.]
"Well~ if both of our strength returns to its full state then I guess you could say we are equal in strength. With the immortality of our bloodline, it would be hard for him to kill me but... it is different now. After all, he is already my other half. If he truly wanted to, A'Xia would be able to kill me if he really wishes to do so." explained vaguely by Hei Anjing which made System Yue confused but it seems that Ye Jingxia understood the hidden meaning of his daddy's words and remained silent.
Seeing his tense state, he could guess what was going on in his mind and just hugged his son.
"Xiao Jing. Do you love your father?" asked Hei Anjing.
Ye Jingxia answered without hesitation. "I love father and daddy the most!"
"Daddy loves your father and Xiao Jing the most as well. So Xiao Jing has nothing to worry about. Your father loves us the same way as well."
"But daddy... father is... he is... would he still love us when all his memories return?" asked Ye Jingxia with sadness in his tone.
Hei Anjing replied, "Of course! Your father loves the both of us the most. Even if all his memories and my memories return to normal nothing would happen. But since Xiao Jing is so worried about daddy why don't you protect daddy when that time comes? I'm sure Xiao Jing would be able to protect daddy in the future!"
As if gathering all of his determination, the 5 year old boy pumped his chest and said, "Xiao Jing would protect daddy! Will protect father as well!!" said Ye Jingxia.
Hei Anjing chuckles in happiness when he hears that, "Hahaha~ then I will leave it to Xiao Jing to protect daddy in the future. For now daddy would teach Xiao Jing how to cultivate. Listen well okay~"
"Xiao Jing will listen well!"
Afterward Hei Anjing taught the little baby how to properly cultivate. From how to feel the qi in his body and within his surroundings. How to manage the qi outside and convert it to his own. He even passed him beginner manuals for martials arts, swordsmanship, spears and others. These are something his husband left for him to teach their son.
He, on the other hand, had personally taught the boy how to control his elemental qi like ice, blood and darkness. He got Ice and Blood elemental qi from him while the darkness qi from his father. He also gives him an amulet bracelet made of Ice and blood stone of high quality. This kind of accessories is deemed priceless even in an SSS World. After teaching the boy the basics he told him to practice different kinds of skills in the practice space which time is distorted from his original timeline. The time within the practice area is 100 times faster than in the current world. In short a hundred year in that space is just an hour in the system space.
After putting his boy in the practice room, System Yue had appeared before him in his real form. Now a teenage boy with black hair and purple eyes, wearing a white-violet cultivator robes stood in front of him. Zhi Yue saluted properly in front of Hei Anjing.
"Master Hei. Would you like to check on the next world plots to pass time?" asked Zhi Yue respectfully.
Hei Anjing glanced at him and said, "Not for now. Let Xiao Jing pick the next world to enter. Yue, could you look after Xiao Jing for me in the practice room? I'm afraid he might not be able to continue his training because of that asshole who suddenly came over."
Zhu Yue waves his hand once to make a holographic monitor which shows the live situation inside the practice room. He immediately got pissed when he saw his boss, An Liang bothering his little nephew.
"Boss!? Tsk..." He once again saluted towards Hei Anjing and asked to be excused as he needed to leave. "Master Hei I will look after the Young Master right away!?"
Hei Anjing nodded his head in agreement and said, "Go ahead."
Only then that Zhi Yue disappeared from the System Space to the practice room. Once Zhi Yue disappeared the nonchalant smile on Anjing's face disappeared. He sat in lotus position intending to meditate and speed up his plans to forcefully unlock his seals of his memories. It would take a few more worlds for his memories to be completely unlocked. Right now his memories are already 40 % unlocked. He wanted to unlock 5% more at least before his son and Zhi Yue returns.
5 hours later.
Ye Jingxia and Zhi Yue reappeared with a stalker named An Liang following them. Zhi Yue is carrying the five year old Ye Jingxia in his arms preventing the old pervert following behind them.
An Liang spoke, "Xiao Jing~ can't you come with uncle for a bit? That's right! Let's go visit your father a bit~ Don't you miss your father?"
"No. Father said not to follow strangers!" retorted the boy.
"That's not true. I am Uncle An. Didn't I introduce myself before?" said An Liang with an amicable smile on his face.
Zhi Yue complains, "Boss~ enough already. Because of you the young master's training had been halted multiple times. What would you do if you affected his cultivation?"
"What are you talking about? I'm stopping him because he upgrades his cultivation too fast. He is a natural born deity but after 500 years of cultivation he is already a God." said An Liang.
[A/n: Please refer to chapter 0.0 for the reference of Cultivation Stages.]
Zhi Yue was startled for a moment and immediately checked on his little master's cultivation. After checking that Ye Jingxia indeed reached God state in just 500 years and there were no problems with his foundation at all, he looked at his young master like a little monster. It usually takes a millennium at least for deities to reach Godhood. Even those deities needed resources from God System to enhance their cultivation but his young master only meditates and didn't use any resources except for the bracelet made of white and red stones his host had put on Jingxia's right wrist as an amulet before he let him go to the practice room.
"Wow~ that is high quality ice and blood stones. Who would be wasteful enough to make a bracelet out of it?" said An Liang in shock.
The one who answered is Hei Anjing who took his son from Zhi Yue.
"I am that wasteful person who made ice and blood stone which I made personally using my own elemental qi. Do you have any problems with it?" asked Hei Anjing.
An Liang flinched and instantly hid behind Zhi Yue instinctively when he thought that his nephew was watching him, he acted fearless but still kept a certain distance away from Hei Anjing. He could still remember the man threatening to kill him before he pushed him in a world.
"N-No..." Said An Liang.
"Anyway just put this somewhere near A'Xia's vessel. It will help in protecting his body and soul connection." said Hei Anjing as he brought out a large blood stone of divine class. "It is not something for you but for my husband."
An Liang retorted, "I know... you're getting too cranky lately because your memories started to return. I'll go now. Bye~ Xiao Jing~"
Waving his little hands back after seeing that his daddy really knows this person, "Bye-bye Uncle An~"
"S-So cute~~" whispered An Liang with an adoring expression on his face before taking his leave.
An Liang reluctantly accepts this rare stone which would make even the others kill him just to steal it. After receiving this extremely hot potato in his hands, An Liang had no other choice but to leave right away.
"Yue. What did that fool say about my Xiao Jing?" asked Hei Anjing.
At this moment Zhi Yue had returned to his moon avatar form. He is now hovering around this father and son.
[The boss said to give the same benefits the host has to Xiao Jing. Thought for the next three worlds Xiao Jing could pick two free skills to even out with the host.]
"That's good then. Yue let Xiao see the world plots. He would be choosing what kind of world to enter next." said Hei Anjing while smiling at the little guy in his arms. "Xiao Jing as a reward you could choose the first world you wanted to enter. Daddy will accompany you instead."
Ye Jingxia happily nodded his small head as he stared at Yue's moon avatar looking at him with big adorable eyes saying 'Please hurry and let me see the plots.'
[Cough* I will now list the following worlds' plot for the young master.]

Please make your choice Young Master!]
Young Master Ye Jingxia was taught by the little moon on his hand on how to check on the world plots. Hei Anjing watches the two converse as they look through the plots of every star. After a while Hei Anjing saw his son holding a glowing green ball in his hand.
"Daddy! Xiao Jing wants this one!"
Hei Anjing gladly received the green glowing star from his son. Upon checking the world plot in it, the corner of his lips slightly twitched. There's an obvious dislike on his face after reading the plot. The world his lovely son had chosen is something he hated the most.
The world of rotten, dirt and grime.
Something that will keep Hei Anjing in a bad mood as soon as he enters. For a slight OCD-ic person like him the world end setting is something he wanted to avoid. Though in this world he could kill anyone he wanted, it still does change the fact that it's a rotten world that will prevent him from keeping himself clean all the time.
"Xiao Jing. My baby~ why did you choose this world?" asked Hei Anjing.
Ye Jingxia who noticed his daddy's discomfort had no other choice but to answer honestly. "Xiao Jing wants to try my new learning skills and abilities. This world is suitable for battle." he explained.
"Daddy, you don't like this world?" asked Ye Jingxia.
Seeing the eagerness in his son's eyes from before slightly dims, Hei Anjing decided to spoil the boy and accept his fate.
Hei Anjing smiles weakly, "Daddy doesn't mind. Let's choose this if Xiao Jing wants it." he said.
Ye Jingxia's eyes brightened when he heard his daddy's words. He knew that his daddy accepted his choice.
"Thank you, Daddy!" said Ye Jingxia as he kissed his daddy's cheek with a loud smooch.
SMOOCH!
Hei Anjing spoke, "Okay. okay. Calm down this little baby. We still need to see what kind of skills we could get. Remember to choose 2 skills, okay?"
Ye Jingxia nodded his head and he stared at the floating little moon in front of him.
"Uncle Yue. Hurry. hurry. The list of skills~"
[Haha~ the young master is too excited. I will now give you the list]
[Skill List:
Elemental Qi:
Fire
Water
Wind
Earth
Light
Darkness
Ice
Thunder
Attribute Skill:
Strengthening
Agility Up
Defense Up
Luck Up
Unique Skill:
Mental Skills
Kotodama
Dimensional Space
Storage Space
Please choose your skills Young Master, Host!]
Among the list, Hei Anjing's eyes stayed only on one skill. It's the skill called Dimensional Space. Obviously this skill is like those golden thighs the protagonist possesses. A separated space with a small paradise in it. A small fertile land which allows a living thing to enter and he could even farm in it.
"Yue, I choose the Dimensional Space." said Hei Anjing.
[I thought so! The host would definitely choose this. I knew it. Which form do you wish for it to take? It could take the form of an accessory or a tattoo.]
Hei Anjing replied. "A snowflake earring."
[Synthesizing... Progress complete! Please receive it, Host!]
Out of nowhere a one ear on his left ear appeared. It hangs on his ears and the design is as he requested. A lone white snowflake.
[How about you Young Master? You can choose two if you want or just one, and Uncle Yue would just let you choose three in the next world.]
"Un~...Un~ Uncle Yue, Xiao Jing chooses Light Element and Kotodama~"
[Okay! In the next world you can use your own skills anyway. Uncle Yue would accept your choice for the skills this time. But Xiao Jing still needs to practice the light element for full control. Come with Uncle Yue in the Practice Space for training.]
Zhi Yue once again turned to his human form and took Ye Jingxia with him to train his light element. Hei Anjing didn't have to wait too long. In half an hour the pair returned.
"We're back, daddy~"
Ye Jingxia happily returns to his daddy's arms.
Looking at his system, Hei Anjing said, "Yue. I would like that the identity of the vessel that Xiao Jing would take would at least have a blood connection to the vessel you have chosen for me. I know that I and my son might get separated during the transfer in the world. Which is why, I want you to appear in the worlds at Xiao Jing's side instead of mine. As long as you make sure that the World Plot and memories of the vessel would be received by me as soon as I opened my eyes then there shouldn't be any problem."
[Don't worry, host. I will look after and protect Xiao Jing!]
"Daddy! I would listen to Uncle Yue if I got separated from daddy!" said Ye Jingxia.
Kissing his son's forehead, "Good... Okay! Let's begin the transfer." responded Hei Anjing with a doting smile as he squeezed the glowing green star with his free hand. System Yue initiate their transfer.
[Host, Young Master, please prepare for transfer in 10….9….5….2….1
Transfer Complete!]
