Chapter 750: 14.26 Last Violet Star – Abyssal Inferno Spider

The Abyssal Inferno Spider finally showed its real appearance. The young boys were terrified as this was the first time they had met a hideous monster like the one in front of them. It’s true that they’ve hunted mutated spiders in some forest for their night hunt but not something this big and disgusting.

The scent coming from its mouth smells like a rotting corpse, blood, and pus all together. Those with weak stomachs almost puke on the spot. Even Bai Qiyin had covered his nose with his sleeve while looking at the huge monster with disdain and disgust in his eyes.

Bai Qiyin commented, “This thing is really that disgusting Abyssal Inferno Spider from the Infernal Realm but how could they enter the Mortal Realm without anyone noticing!?”

“Ancestral Mound,” said Hei Anjing as he casually waved his hand.

A block of thick ice suddenly froze the huge spider’s mouth sealing the disgusting scent spreading in the area. But as if the Abyssal Infernal Spider did not use his mouth to speak they heard it shrieking in intense anger.

SHRIIIIEEKKKS!

“Mortal! How dare you humiliate me!!?” screamed the Spider monster.

.....

Hei Anjing spoke with coldness and mockery, “I’ve blocked its mouth and it’s still noisy. Annoying. Yue, kill the bug.”

“Yes, Lord Hei!” said Zhi Yue as he slowly approached the Abyssal Inferno Spider.

Everyone was watching as Zhi Yue approached the Abyssal Inferno Spider. He didn’t have any weapon in his possession yet there was no hesitation as he walked forward. Suddenly two crescent-shaped blades appeared in both of his hands.

Yun Fan commented, “Eh? Where did those weapons come from? I didn’t see him holding something.”

“He might have some storage tools. Chun Hongyun-Jun has one as well,” said Yun Anjie.

Du Sang said, “But I’ve seen no accessories on this brother.”

The young disciples talked with each other trying to guess where Zhi Yue’s weapon suddenly came out of. On the other hand, Bai Qiyin recognized the weapons that suddenly appeared in Zhi Yue’s hands.

Bai Qiyin spoke, “Twin Crescent Blades. That’s rare. This kind of weapon is hard to control. A weapon that can be used for both melee and range.”

Just as Bai Qiyin said those words, everyone saw Zhi Yue throw his weapon toward the huge monster spider. The Twin Crescent Blades flew while spinning toward the Abyssal Inferno Spider. The terrain wasn’t compatible with the abilities of the Abyssal Inferno Spider.

“Mortals! That’s useless. I can jump to dodge it!” said the Abyssal Inferno Spider.

But as soon as he did that Zhi Yue smirked and looked at the monster with mockery in his eyes.

Zhi Yue said, “Do you not know? Crescent-type weapons need flexibility and accurate prediction. As once it was thrown, the blades would still come back to the owner.”

“What!?” said the Abyssal Inferno Monster but as he turned around he saw a pair of silver blades rotating back in his direction. He is already in midair and was unable to dodge.

SHRIEKS!!!

The crescent blade had sharply cut off the monster in half spurting green blood mixed with fresh blood and some human past undigested from its stomach. The whole aftermath scene is so gore and revolting that Hei Anjing had to once again wave his hand to burn the corpse with a fire talisman.

Hei Anjing noticed Sect Master Yun staring in the distance watching him with disbelief and happiness in his eyes. He noticed that Lu Er, Bai Qiyin, and this newly arrived man all shared the same expression and the same emotion when looking at him.

Incredulity and delight.

The thoughts of Hei Anjing, ‘Does this mean a lot of people from the cultivation circle of this realm knew who I am in the past? I guess I need to see all my past memories in that place.’

“Xiao Piqi Baozao. You have someone coming to pick you up,” said Hei Anjing.

Bai Qiyin complained like a child, “Gege! Don’t call me Xiao Piqi Baozao!”

“That nickname... Fits you so well though,” mumbled Hei Anjing as if what he had said is a matter of fact.

Pfft! The rest couldn’t help but chuckle upon hearing the conversation between Senior Hei and Sect Master Bai.

Bai Qiyin couldn’t glare at children while his brother was around. So he could only stare angrily at Zhi Yue who pretended he didn’t see anything while Sect Master Yun was frightened by his Dao Companion’s fierceness. He tried to hold back his laugh and in the end, it was replaced by hiccups instead.

Hic!

Hic! Hic!

(OwO)(OwO)

Yun Huaxia had no other choice but to cover his mouth while wanting to bury himself under the earth due to embarrassment. He loses his face in front of the disciples of his own sect. He wanted to cover his face but even if he did his reddening ears had longed betrayed him.

Hic! (OwO)

Seeing this Bai Qiyin couldn’t be helped but sighed. His other half had always been this gullible and since he is so good-hearted that a scheming fox like Jin Baihua even took advantage of him. He really got to look after him well.

Bai Qiyin says to Hei Anjing, “Gege, can I have a cup of water?”

“Yue, serve the guests some tea and snacks. As well as a jar of water for Qiyin,” said Hei Anjing.

Zhi Yue responded, “As you wish, Lord Hei.” He went back inside the house after preparing some tables and chairs for the guests.

Bai Qiyin and Yun Huaxia had joined the table where Hei Anjing was seated. The young disciples occupied the other table separately from their seniors.

Bai Qiyin sat happily beside his brother, even though the latter doesn’t seem to remember who he is, at the very least he wasn’t completely distant like how Hei Anjing treated Lu Er as just an acquaintance. Seated beside Sect Master Bai, Yun Huaxia is also secretly observing Hei Anjing which the latter had chosen to ignore.

“Gege... Where did you come from? I mean if you can tell me that is...” said Bai Qiyin.

Hei Anjing nonchalantly answered his question and said, “I’ve descended from the Immortal Plane. I have a mission to complete this realm.”

“Mission? What kind of mission?” asked Bai Qiyin.

Hei Anjing said, “I don’t mind answering but... Aren’t you going to introduce to me your Dao companion?”

“You know that I am Yin’er Dao Companion?” asked Yun Huaxia.

“Hm~ well I could see things others couldn’t. Like karma, oaths, vows, and... As well as sins. It’s my work to punish people. This includes mortals and immortals altogether,” said Hei Anjing.

Silence descended in the area. Hei Anjing had longed to expect such things. Humans fear those who are stronger than them.

Bai Qiyin thought for a moment and asked, “Does that mean the reason for the demise of that small clan in the countryside of the Southern region is because of their karma and sins? The heavenly laws involved in that? The siege of the undead was coming for them?”

Hei Anjing was stunned for a moment and stared at Bai Qiyin silently. He immediately understood that this young man who calls him Shixiong turned silent not because he is afraid of him but instead... He was thinking of that event that involves him and the young ones at the other table.

Seeing that his Shixiong wasn’t answering his question, even Sect Master Bai was left in confusion. He didn’t understand why his brother was staring at him like that and wasn’t answering his question.

“Gege?” Bai Qiyin calls.

Yun Fan who was listening to their senior’s conversation from the other table raised his hand as if wanting to say something. Among all the disciples in the area only he could somewhat understand what Hei Anjing meant by seeing other things others couldn’t see. Though his heavenly eyes weren’t completely under his control, he could at least use them for a few minutes.

Yun Huaxia smiled at his sect disciple and said, “Yes. What is it, Junior Nephew Fan?”

“Ah! Yes, Sect Leader! I believe Senior Hei was speaking the truth. That time my heavenly eyes opened out of nowhere and I saw that the whole Du Clan was covered in Black Karma and it had covered the whole Du Family including their land. The main target of that undead is also them. But...”

Yun Fan wanted to say that the connection between the undead and the Du Clan might be because of the female fierce corpse but that undead was Du Sang’s mother and he didn’t want to cause heartache to Du Sang.

Du Sang saw Yun Fan staring at him and knew that the latter must be worried about him.

“I’m okay. You can tell the Seniors everything,” said In name disciple Du Sang.

Yun Fan nods his head and glances at Yun Anjie allowing him to continue the story for him.

“Actually, (Uncle Master) Shishu... Du Sang’s mother had reanimated as undead and she had become a fierce corpse with intelligence and memories of her past. She wanted revenge when she saw how Junior Brother Du was bullied in the Du Clan. She might be the bad karma the Du Clan had to suffer from,” said Yun Anjie.

Sect Master Bai and Sect Master Yun looked at Hei Anjing. They wanted to know if Yun Anjie’s words were correct.

Hei Anjing said after taking a bite of one of his ham and cheese scones.

“Remove the word might. A fierce corpse with high resentment usually comes back to life to take revenge on its most hated person. That little ghost’s target of hatred was the Matriarch of the Du Family, her legitimate elder sister. In the end, that little ghost chooses to save her beloved child and was washed off of her hatred. She was given the chance to reincarnate thanks to that.”

“Normally, the most fierce corpse had been taken over by their hatred and ended up losing themselves. In the end, they all ended up suffering something much worse than their target. But the little ghost is different, her choice that time was the correct one that beings from the Underworld Society had escorted her personally to her reincarnation.”

“When she had left that time, the karma of the Du Clan had faded. As for the siege of undead, the first wave was indeed under her control as for the next second that targeted that town itself, I don’t know who did it.”

“By the way, I will only help when the devil race is involved. As for the rest, I couldn’t get entangled especially for the life and death of a mortal that had nothing to do with me,” said Hei Anjing.

Yun Huaxia spoke, “But you’ve saved the disciples of my sect at that time... Are they different from other beings of the mortal plane?”

“Children are innocent. I couldn’t turn a blind eye to their suffering,” replied Hei Anjing.

Though his expression was hidden behind his veil, Sect Master Bai and Sect Master Yun knew that he was expressionless behind it. They’ve been observing him from the very beginning and realized that not only had Hei Anjing lost his memories of his past self and he had also lost most of his emotions that his face remains devoid of feelings. They felt something weird was going on but they couldn’t just ask him directly about it.

Bai Qiyin asked, “By the way, Gege, why are you wearing a veil? Are you hiding your face because of someone?”

Hei Anjing lightly touches the veil that covers his mouth and nose, “This... There is a reason for this. First off, this body I’m using right now is my real vessel. It’s a Godly vessel sealed temporarily by the heavenly laws before I’ve descended in this world.”

“Temporarily Sealed?” asked Bai Qiyin.

Hei Anjing tried to release a cultivation strength beyond Ascension Stage and the atmosphere around him suddenly turned powerful and suffocating but in the midst, they saw a huge gold chain connected to the heavens restraining the five limbs of Hei Anjing. His two arms and two legs, and lastly his neck. Heaven itself restrains him completely.

Yun Huaxia and Bai Qiyin were stunned by such a sight. Even though it was only for a split second, they now believe that the person before him had restrictions while staying on their plane.

Yun Huaxia mumbled, “The Godly Chains of the Heavenly Laws. Is this the reason why cultivators of Ascension Stage choose to go to the Heavenly Realm because the Mortal Realm is like a cage for them?”

“Gege, are you okay?!” asked Bai Qiyin worriedly.

Hei Anjing acted normal like before as if those gold chains that appeared out of nowhere faded. He took his cup of coffee and took a sip to ease his thirst.

“Don’t worry. Unlike those who are in Ascension Stage, the heavenly laws only restrict my powers but do not cage me in this plane. I am after all a born God from the Upper Realm. The Mortal Realm could never really restrict me. But at the same time I am not allowed to get involved too much with mortals as it would greatly affect my karma,” said Hei Anjing.
