839 14.115 Last Violet Star – (Past) The Devil recognized Bai Wuan.

Bai Wuan scowled as he drew nearer to the house in his line of sight as the Great Elder brought him to the only courtyard in the Main Peak where their leader lives. Bai Wuan’s eyes were shining with a tinge of gold, as seen by even Yun Xiayu. He understood that his heavenly eyes must have activated. Everyone in the cultivation world knew that Bai Wuan had special physiques and one of them is these celestial eyes that are able to see through most of anything in the world. But even Yun Xiayu sensed something was off when he noticed the young man scowling.

“What’s wrong, A’Wuan?” asked Yun Xiayu.

Bai Wuan mumbled incredulously, “No. No. This cannot be...!” as he hurriedly ran towards the courtyard as if something that mustn’t happen is now transpiring.

The Great Elder had never before witnessed Bai Wuan lose his composure. When he started acting in this way, he thought that things weren’t going to be difficult especially because even his Heavenly Eyes had turned on the instant the courtyard came into his line of sight. As soon as Bai Wuan entered the room where the Sect leader was sleeping, he saw that his beloved was wounded and hurt.

The Sect Master was slashing the sword at his own son when Bai Wuan and the great elder witnessed it. When they saw this spectacle, they were astounded.

Bai Wuan cried “Stop!” as he struck the Sect Master, forcing him to get away from the area where Yun Xiajie had passed out. He screams out fiercely as he moves toward his husband, “A’Xia!” His tone was full of worries for his beloved.

Yun Xiayu exclaimed to the Sect Master wielding a blade near them, “Elder Brother! What the heck are you doing!?” In an effort to safeguard the two kids, he stood in front of them.

As Bai Wuan clutched his sweetheart, who passed out in his arms, he pleaded for the person to wake up. His voice is full of fear which cannot be ignored.

“A’Xia! Please don’t scare me! Wake up, Please.”

.....

The sight of his lover covered in the blood caused him to cry uncontrollably. He even neglected to look at Yun Xiajie’s wounds.

The Great Elder spoke, “A’Wuan, calm down. He just fainted. I can still hear him breathing. Just go treat his wounds! And bring him away!”

The elder’s statements startled Bai Wuan. He felt his lover’s pulse with shaky hands and discovered that he was still breathing. He attempted to carry Yun Xiajie on his back as instructed while simultaneously making him consume a pill to treat his wounds. As they attempted to flee, the Sect Master was being blocked by the Great Elder. After all, this courtyard was enclosed by a prison formation to prevent Sect Master Yun from leaving.

Bai Wuan treated his beloved as soon as they left the house. The entire peak was reverberating with the shouts and yells of the imprisoned Sect Master.

“You damn humans! Let this Lord out! Let me out! Arggg!!!”

Tsk!

“What is wrong with my brother? He suddenly becomes like this after waking up from his coma! A’Wuan, do you know what is happening to your Father Yun?” asked Yun Xiayu.

Hearing his Uncle Yun’s remarks, Bai Wuan, who was cleaning the blood from his lover’s face, abruptly stopped. He was biting his bottom lips and unable to respond to the question. He didn’t know how to explain it to this elder properly so in the end, he chose the move, ‘To see is to believe’.

“Uncle Yun, please sit down in front of me for a bit. I will temporarily lend you my heavenly eyes,” said Bai Wuan.

The Great Elder was confused but still did as he was told, “You can lend your heavenly eyes to someone? Moreover, why lend it to me?”

“You will see what you wanted to know but the effect lasts for only a short while... But I will lose my Heavenly sight for a moment as I lend it to you. It would only last for a few minutes...” said Bai Wuan as he temporarily transferred his sight to the Great Elder of Lan Zhuayn Sect.

When Yun Xiayu opened his eyes once again, he saw golden chains around Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie, his nephew. Even their souls, which are shining gold in his sight, are visible.

Yun Xiayu questioned, “What are these chains for, and why do both you and Jieye have such things on you?”

While the other person overheard their conversation, Bai Wuan remained silent. It was the Sect Master, but for some reason, upon awakening, he had undergone a full transformation. He reacted quite startled upon hearing the great elder’s words.

“Golden Chains? Those are soul chains. Only immortals require them to be able to descend into this domain of mortals without unintentionally destroying this realm,” the Sect Master replied. “No wonder those youngsters made me uneasy. They are reincarnated immortals!”

“What the heck are you talking about, brother? Gasp!”

Turning around to confront his elder brother, the great elder is startled to see a black soul with horns and claws standing in front of him. This wasn’t his older brother’s original soul.

The Great elder, Yun Xiayu, screamed, “Y-You... Who the hell are you? What are you doing inside my brother’s body?! Those horns, claws, and dark soul? Are you a devil!!!?”

The devil ignored the annoying old man and looked at Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie feeling that these two had similar auras that made him uncomfortable.

“There appear to be two of them. Kakaka.”

The Devil inhabiting the body of the Sect Master grinned and said, “Oh, you can see my genuine appearance. This implies that the young lad had really lent you real Heavenly Eyes. Interesting~ As expected of reincarnated immortals~”

Bewildered, “Immortal? Reincarnated?” muttered Yun Xiayu.

The Great Elder was stunned by what he had heard, and he stared at Bai Wuan and his nephew incredulously. He had no idea that the two of them were immortal beings who had taken a mortal form.

Bai Wuan said, “You hold your tongue. Just a simple demon and you dare to speak before this King!?” as he began to exude some divinity. He was sufficiently enraged when he saw his husband in such a bloody state and after Sect Master Yun’s body had been completely taken over by a devil.

“Oho~ I would calm down if I were you, immortal. Don’t you care about the owner of this vessel? Isn’t that the reason why you aren’t fighting me at all? You even called him Father Yun. As the father of your chosen Dao Companion, of course, you cannot kill him,” grinned the Devil while using the body of Sect Master Yun.

This terrible being was undoubtedly teasing Bai Wuan, yet as he claimed, Bai Wuan had the power to kill him but ultimately decided against doing so. He was helpless and could only look at the devil in front of him.

“I can’t kill you, but it doesn’t mean I can’t lock you up here,” declares Bai Wuan.

By strengthening the formation surrounding the house, Bai Wuan was ultimately able to entirely stop the Devil from leaving this place to cause harm.

The demon inside Sect Master Yun’s body yelled, “Let me out! You damn brat! Aren’t you terrified of me destroying this vessel!?”

“As if you can exist without a vessel, and within the soul prison, I constructed for you, even if you become only a wisp of soul there is no way to escape. Be nice and remain in there,” scoffed Bai Wuan as he regarded the Devil.

The Devil yelled, “You damn immortal! You were reincarnated with your previous life’s memories, and your might is already the strongest in this world. Why for God’s sake haven’t you still ascended!?”

Bai Wuan turned a deaf ear towards this stupid devil. In order to heal his husband, he used blood elements as he cannot use light elements which had no compatibility with them. But then when he heard the Devil’s question, he abruptly stopped what he was doing.

“Even if you call over your pawn (Xie Gui), he wouldn’t be able to save you because I’ve already put up a barrier in this place that prevents even immortals from entering. Stay there until I decide what to do with you,” said Bai Wuan. “It just so happens that my trial involves you a Devil and unless I kill you I cannot go back to the Upper Realm.”

For the first time since his awakening, the Devil experienced terror. Who would have imagined that since he remained around this human sect for fun, he would now be unable to escape? He believed that once he had his vessel, he would be able to do anything he wanted. Unfortunately, he couldn’t even escape from this courtyard.

The demon screams at Bai Wuan as he begins to howl in a fit of confused dread and wrath.

“You haven’t fully awakened your divinity and your vessel is still mortal. How can you utilize formation at immortal grade!? Impossible! How can you accomplish that!?”

Bai Wuan said, “Even if I haven’t ascended yet, as long as I have enough material, I can keep you imprisoned there forever. My talents include formation, pill alchemy, and medicine, all of which are at the divine level.”

“Who the hell are you?! There is no way you are an average God. The wisp of divinity I sensed from you just now is too pure. Only those in the Regal Immortal Family can... have? Don’t tell me!” the Devil yelled.

Bai Wuan abruptly sprang up in front of the Demon and briefly imprisoned him with a black soul chain unbreakable even in the immortal realm, saying, “Ah yes. I can feel a wisp of Father Yun’s soul in you. You haven’t totally devoured him. Good thing... That you are a foolish devil.”

The blood-colored scythe that suddenly materialized in Bai Wuan’s hand, as well as his shining icy silver irises descending on him, allowed the demon in Sect Master Yun’s body to recognize Bai Wuan for who he is.

He looked at him in astonishment and bewilderment, forgetting to break free of the restraints on his body.

“Silver eyes, black soul chains, and a blood-red death scythe! You... You are King Wu... An!”

Bai Wuan remarked, “There is no price for recognizing this King,” as he slashed the Devil and drew out Sect Master Yun’s frail soul with his scythe

As anticipated, the Devil’s vessel released a nearly transparent soul belonging to Sect Master Yun from the barrier. He seemed to be about to lose his strength.

“Elder Brother!!!”

The Great Elder ran to his brother’s side as soon as he recognized him. However, when he attempted to touch his sibling, his finger seemed to contact with nothing but air.

The perplexed Yun Xiayu murmured, “W-What is this?”

Tsk!

The Devil said, “If I had known his highness was here, I would have devoured him whole in the first place. It is impossible for the living to touch the dead! You reside in two distinct realms after all.”

Bai Wuan cast a charm to silence the devil, causing his lips to suddenly close, and remarked, “So talkative. Shut up!”

The Great Elder questioned Bai Wuan, “A’Wuan, what can be done?” as he turned to face him.

Bai Wuan ponders for a brief time as he thinks of a way to keep a soul. He thought of something and did so to control the situation.

“There is only that way left but... he would definitely not like it once he knew what needs to be done,” mumbled Bai Wuan before gnawing his thumb and flicking something toward Sect Master Yun’s soul.

Sect Master Yun’s soul was momentarily connected directly to the living world by a droplet of golden blood from Bai Wuan, enabling him to repair his own soul. However, as soon as Bai Wuan did that, he instantly lost all color and briefly staggered.

Sect Master Yun inquired in his soul form, “A’Wuan, are you okay?”

In response, Bai Wuan said, “I’m okay just a little... fatigued.” He then sat next to his beloved once again and continued to heal him.

Yun Xiajie didn’t open his eyes for another thirty minutes. When he turned around and saw his father’s body trapped inside his own courtyard and his lover’s pallid face, he seemed so worn out and dejected.

“You don’t look good. Looking this pale, are you alright, Jing’er?” asked the Second Young Master Yun.

In addition to feeling dizzy from the rapid movement and frowning because he could see that his Dao Companion’s condition wasn’t good, Yun Xiajie frowned when he reached out to touch Bai Wuan’s cheeks and felt the coolness of his skin.

Bai Wuan grinned at his hubby while rubbing his warm hands on his cheeks.

Bai Wuan mumbled, “I’m... a bit... weary. Let... me... sleep... for... a time,” and then he finally passed out.

When they noticed that Bai Wuan had lost consciousness, Sect Master Yun’s spirit form, Yun Xiajie, and Yun Xiayu all became worried. Particularly the Great Elder who had seen everything that Bai Wuan had accomplished.

“Meticulously watch over A’Wuan in your arms. We should go to your courtyard and let him rest. Jieye, attend for your Dao Companion yourself. Be careful and don’t let him fall,” Yun Xiayu orders, looking worriedly at Bai Wuan in his nephew’s embrace. The effects of the heavenly eyes Bai Wuan had lent to him had already faded.

Without even responding, Yun Xiajie softly held his beloved in his embrace. He was shocked when he eventually met his father in his soul form.

“F-Father? You... You’re...!!!”

The great elder instructed them to shift their location and proceed to the mountain peak held by Yun Xiajie, saying, “Speak later. Bring A’Wuan to rest first.” They were at ease enough to leave the devil there since they were aware that he couldn’t escape from his imprisonment.
