815 14.91 Last Violet Star – Bet

What the King of Devils had just heard left him stunned. The Devil of Envy, Jidu had passed away twelve years prior, therefore his son was correct when he claimed that he had just learned of his existence. He came across this man the moment right after he had slain his own Dao companion to put an end to Devil Jidu. At first, he thought that this mortal cultivator coincidentally resembled him and his wife so much that he decided to continue seeing him through the perspective of another wicked race. As the King of Devils saw him almost go insane, his devilish blood began to stir.

He appeared to be on the edge of losing his mind at the time, but instead, Chun Hongyun-Jun repressed everything and spoke the words.

“He will return. He swears he will return. I cannot allow myself to be overcome by this irritating blood. Until my Jing’er returns, I cannot go insane.”

The actual cause of Chun Hongyun-Jun’s abrupt disappearance a few years after the death of Bai Wuan was this. The King of Devils observes as his own son shuts off his own feelings and leads a life similar to a living corpse in order to survive. Believing that he only needs to wait ten years for this lover of his to return to him. The very act of making this commitment kept him from going wild and murdering every person in the mortal world out of sheer madness.

The demon king reasoned that his son could wait at least that long for the promise he had made to the human. He concealed the fact that his son was already in the Mortal Realm by allowing a few more powerful devils to cause havoc in the Mortal Land. Because he thinks Chun Hongyun-Jun, also known as Yun Xiajie, was his greatest weapon against the immortal race.

But who would have expected that the human who died that day had really come back to life? The King of devils didn’t even know that he is an immortal who had descended from the Mortal Realm as when he met Hei Anjing this day, Mo Bing Jingling-Jun had longed to finish his synchronization to this realm and temporarily sealed the divinity he had in when he descended. As a result, in the sight of others, he is just another mortal.

In addition, the King of Devils is unaware that the soul within his son’s body once belonged to a God from the Heavenly Realm. The sole disciple of the reigning Immortal Emperor is the God of Judgment. Additionally, Xia Jieye had fully seized control of that vessel, recalled who he was, and knew why he had awakened in this world. He is an outsider in this world as well, a Sovereign Ruler from Vearth and the lover of Hei Anjing. His sole connection and purpose for existing are because of the soul in the man known to everyone as Mo Bing Jingling-Jun.

Chun Hongyun-Jun said to his father, “Old Man, for a millennium devil you acting sucks. Are you that useless you are asking help from this son of yours? You didn’t even know I existed until 10 years ago. Your glib mouth is useless against me.”

“You’ve changed a lot, son. Is it because of that human beside you?... Would you go back to how you were before if I... Killed it?” said the King of Devils as he suddenly appeared in front of Hei Anjing trying to kill him on the spot.

.....

Whoosh~

Tsk!

When Chun Hongyun-Jun observed this spectacle, his eyes were as icy as glaciers. In contrast, Hei Anjing continued to act frail but maintained a sly grin the entire time. Xia Jieye’s fist blocked the King of Devils’ attempt to stab Hei Anjing in the heart. He loses his cool when someone approaches his wife, especially when they attempt to murder his Jing’er in front of him.

The Devil King flew away pretty pitifully while beaten in his soul form because of the force Xia Jieye had used to attack him before. Chun Hongyun-Jun, who was upset, launched one strike toward the soul, wanting to instantly kill it. Despite that, the King of Devils had a proud and delighted smile on the corner of his lips and dodged the second strike without problems.

The King of Devils spoke, “You are indeed my son. So powerful and merciless. But it would be best if you didn’t let your guard down. Even though that human says he loves you now that he learned that you possessed half of the Devil Race’s blood, would he still love you?”

Hei Anjing looked horrifyingly at Xia Jieye as he bent his head, but instead of being alarmed, Chun Hongyun-Jun remained mute while maintaining a knowing expression. Hei Anjing is mocked by the King of Devils because he believes that this person would betray his son and cause him to ruin the mortal realm. When that occurs, his son will also tear down the barrier enclosing the mortal realm, allowing him to begin exacting revenge on the mortals who betrayed him and his wife as well as the immortals who managed to keep him from his wife and son.

The Devil King was seeing a bright future, and he knew it might all come true if his son went entirely insane. He waits to see the Mortal that his son loves so as to treat him with contempt and hatred. But who would anticipate that the scene in front of him would be quite different from what he had anticipated?

Xia Jieye was tightly held in Chun Hongyun-Jun’s embrace. Although the King of Devils’ son’s possessiveness is obvious, the look on the person on his son’s arm startled him. He is gazing lovingly at his son while grinning broadly. No one could ignore the passionate love hidden within those silver eyes.

The King of the Devils couldn’t understand why this human is able to show this kind of expression even after knowing that the person he loves possessed a bloodline of a devil race which is an enemy of the mortal race and the immortal race. Even his previous wife glanced at him with a hint of trepidation. Then he had witnessed other instances of people of different races joining forces with a demon without realizing what they were doing, only to feel deceived and furious upon discovering that the person they love is a devil himself.

Regardless of the cause, the majority of this world’s inhabitants would at least slightly or instinctively despise the devil race. It seemed as though all other beings, excluding their own, were designed to despise the Devil Race. Everyone loathes this race.

“How... How can you still accept that your partner is a half-devil, aren’t you meant to hate him after learning about his bloodline?” the king of demons demanded.

Hei Anjing regarded him with an air of confusion as though he couldn’t make sense of what the Devil King had been saying.

Mo Bing Jingling-Jun spoke, “What are you talking about? A’Xia is just A’Xia. I love him for who he is and not for what he is. Am I supposed to hate him for having devil’s blood? That’s absurd! If you love a person you would accept everything about him. Whether it is his origins, his weakness, and his personality. If someone couldn’t accept his love for what he is, it only meant he doesn’t love him enough.”

The King of Devils was astounded, but Xia Jieye was so overjoyed that he rubbed his face against that of his wife. He was aware that no matter who he is or what he does in the future, his wife will always love him. This is possible because he is able to welcome him without holding anything back.

The King of the Devil attempted to reject the reality in front of him by saying, “Impossible... This is just impossible! How can you accept him!? Aren’t you afraid of becoming a betrayer of your race? What about your parents or relatives? Would you not care how they look at you!?”

Hei Anjing spoke, “You speak of nonsense. I will be at A’Xia’s side no matter what happens. Even if my parents don’t accept him or even if the whole world becomes my enemy. I will always live only him alone and for all eternity.”

“No, this can’t be! It is not possible. How can you be sure you will do that until the end? I don’t believe you?” said the King of Devils.

Mo Bing Jingling-Jun spoke, “Whether you believe it or not depends on you. But I don’t care whatever decision you make or care about how you would see our love. To me, you can never become A’Xia.”

“My parents had long known about the bloodline of A’Xia. Not only them, my brothers know, my aunt and uncles know as well. But as long as I had chosen him as my love they would accept him regardless of whether he is a half-devil or a full-blood devil. This is because I would never change my mind regardless of what they think. They knew about this and were willing to accept A’Xia. This is because he is the man I love the most in this world.”

“By the way, you can even spread the word about Chun Hongyun-Jun having half devil’s blood. But I believe that his relatives and sect wouldn’t be willing to give him up to you even if you threatened them with their lives. Do you want to make a bet on it?” asked Hei Anjing with a fleeting smile.

For the King of Devils, however, such a grin was like a taunt or a provocative act. He believed that the demon race is directed by a simple person who looks down on him. He also doubts that a person would give all of his affection to a person who resembles a devil.

“I will accept the bet, but the target would be not only the Lan Zhuayun Sect but everyone in the entire three realms. The bet would be whether they would be able to accept their Chun Hongyun-Jun having devil’s blood. If they do not accept, you shall destroy them regardless of what race they are. If you are able to fulfill this means in the end, then I shall give you what you want.”

“What if I wanted you to give up your life? Are you willing? Or are you willing to believe there is someone in this world who is willing to give up everything for the devil? Something you can never have in your whole life?” taunted Hei Anjing.

The Devil King yelled, “This King doesn’t believe you are willing to do that much in the end! You love him as a being with the devil’s blood. This is impossible. I place my life on this bet. I believe there is no one in this world who is willing to give their everything to a devil! I swear to the heavenly vows. If I lost this bet, I would forfeit my life. If I win, however, your body, your soul, and everything shall fall. Are you willing to accept the bet?”

He regarded the human in his son’s arms, who was still grinning delightfully as if seeing a fool who was himself, with a sardonic sneer on his face. When he learned about this, he assumed that this person would cancel the bet, but... The same vows were made by this man.

“The God of Punishment, Hei Anjing, accepted the wager and swore allegiance to the rules of heaven as well, in the name of King Wuan.”

“Y-You... You are... An immortal?! Furthermore, a Supreme Immortal who inflicts punishment on all beings of this world. Are you really prepared to give up your all for a half-breed like Xiajie?” the King of Devils said, stunned.

“My Immortal Father is impartial to both his enemies and to his family, and he wouldn’t be biased toward me even if I were his son. I was sentenced to stay in Purgatory for a millennium as punishment for defying fate ten years ago, and I have endured all kinds of physical and mental torture for a thousand years. Despite this, I have never been afraid of punishment or death. So~ do you think I would be afraid of accepting this bet? You are wrong. I accept this bet wholeheartedly!” said Hei Anjing.

But for a different reason, the father and son were astounded. The Supreme God King Wuan, who was dreaded by all Devils, Humans, and Gods, falling in love with a half-breed with devil’s blood astonished the King of Devils. On the other hand, Chun Hongyun-Jun was shocked. He was unaware that his wife had been sentenced to a millennium of agony. He can’t believe he had failed to safeguard his Jing’er like that weak other self of his.
