875 14.151 Last Violet Star – Devil Baoshi

Somewhere in the Eastern City...

Jin Baihua was able to blend in among the locals due to the cover Devil Fennu lent to his vessel. He may adopt any facial features, and nobody would be able to identify him. He could no longer use his actual face when moving about in the Mortal Realm, however, since he is a wanted man and a very infamous one at that.

Every single mortal in this region recognizes the visage of Jin Baihua, who is currently regarded as a traitor to the Human Race. There was one occasion when he neglected to put on a disguise. Even ordinary folks recognized him and instantly alerted authorities to his whereabouts. He was surrounded by a bunch of cultivators and was on the verge of death when they encircled him. Without Devil Fennu and Devil Shulan’s assistance, he would have perished at the hands of those men. Only then he realized that he no longer had any place in the mortal realm as he threw it away himself.

In an effort to steal the blood of the Bai Princess, who is also Jin Shiyan’s wife, they had now slipped into the East City. The Sect Master of the Bai Lengshui Sect was not at home when they arrived at their intended first destination, Sect Master Bai Qiyin of the Northern City was away. He is in Eastern City assisting his spouse with matters pertaining to the Lan Zhuayun Sect.

After all, the Lan Zhuayun Sect has been very busy attempting to safeguard Hei Anjing and Xia Jieye ever since the word that Chun Hongyun-Jun had the blood of the veil circulated across the lower realm. Everyone in the Eastern City became extra busier once Hei Anjing’s pregnancy was discovered, especially when anticipated visitors from the Upper Realm arrived. Because their eldest son hasn’t yet returned, Bai Yuyan and Xue Wuyue found themselves temporarily in charge of the Bai Lengshui Sect.

What happened in the Northern City before Jin Baihua headed to the Eastern City?

In fact, Jin Baihua had been seen by the Old Bai Couple slipping into the Bai Lengshui Sect in search of Sect Master Bai. The two Devils inside Jin Baihua, who was terrified upon seeing Madam Bai’s silver eyes, prevented him from going for the elderly couple instead and obtaining blood from a Bai Family member. Those eyes belonged only to the Noble Xue Clan of the Upper Realm. Jin Baihua made the decision to flee because he knew that getting captured would put him in danger. However, it was evident from their lack of interest in today’s issues that this old couple chose to ignore Jin Baihua’s presence.

Madam Bai, Xue Wuyue asked, “What did he even come here for? This youngster has been sneaking around the Sect for a few days now.”

The former Sect Master Bai, Bai Yuyan, stated, “Hmm, I heard he is seeking to open up the barrier between the Devil Region and the Mortal Realm. He should be here for our blood.”

.....

Madam Bai didn’t appear stunned by her husband’s statement. Even if that barrier vanished, their Bai Clan might well reach the Upper Realm and cease to interact with the Mortal Realm. What could the demon races possibly accomplish when Hei Anjing and Xia Jieye are present? Even if the God of Judgment and the God of Punishment faced up against each other, the King of All Devils would not be able to easily overcome them. It is hardly unexpected that he has become far weaker than he should have because the Immortal Emperor imprisoned him in his own land for thousands of years.

Madam Bai said, “Qiqi is in the East together with his Dao Companions. His Highness An’er is also there. There is no way this child would go there and get caught instead. Which meant he might target Lili in East instead.”

“She wouldn’t be someone without a fight in her,” observed Bai Yuyan. “She should be alright. After her and Qiqi’s extraordinary constitution had been awakened by An’er, they seldom get harmed.”

Madama Bai spoke, “I know. I am more interested in the babies of An’er. I heard he had twins. I’m envious when would Qiqi or Lili give this old woman a grandchild?”

“Honey, do you want to visit Lan Zhuayun Sect? We can just directly open a void and teleport there then come back at night,” said Bai Yuyan. “Moreover, we need to pay our respects to the royal highnesses that recently descended.”

“Sure~ Wait for me to finish my preparations...”

“Honey, don’t bring too much...”

They are able to move by utilizing the void since they are immortals. Although slower than teleportation, it was somewhat similar. When she heard this, Madam Bai’s eyes brightened up, and she started getting things ready before they decided to depart. They instantly forgot about Jin Baihua and the things he might cause.

Back to Reality...

At the Eastern City

The enterprises owned by their clan and sect have prospered and grown even more since Jin Shiyan assumed the role of Sect Master of the Jin Tiangui Sect. Business acumen is something that Jin Shiyan received from the Jin Clan’s bloodline. He doesn’t act in the same way as Jin Baihua, who made charitable contributions and did other things to boost his reputation. For the sake of his name, he spends more money than he makes.

Because Jin Shiyan is more concerned with producing money and given that he is married to a lovely and intelligent woman, their businesses increased as they gained control of the entire Eastern City. The Eastern City becomes a gold mine and the hub of all commerce thanks to the merchant organization that makes up the Jin Tiagui Sect. Only when Jin Shiyan acquired control of the Jin Tiangui Sect was this objective accomplished.

In reality, when Jin Baihua first came to this city, he was shocked by how substantial the changes were. He had a little financial experience while he was the Sect Master of the Jin Tiagui Sect, therefore he left most of it to those elders of the clan. He did nothing more than gather gold, which he then utilized to establish a solid reputation. Thus, no one would bring up his repulsive background as the kid of a prostitute. He had forgotten that the Jin Tiangui Sect was founded in order to elevate the Jin Clan to the status of the biggest merchant family and to establish East City as a hub for commerce.

When Jin Baihua was the Sect Master, he was unable to understand this, which caused the Jin Tiangui Sect to become even weaker than the Lu Weifeng Sect. Things didn’t much alter until Jin Shiyan assumed control. It was quite reminiscent of the era when Old Sect Master Jin ruled the Jin Tiangui sect. Business is thriving, and gold is still flowing through the city.

Jin Baihua was rendered blind by this accomplishment. He initially struggled to comprehend his father’s decision to name Jin Shiyan as his heir. He is nothing more than a child who wags his tail in the direction of the Bai Family. He didn’t really appreciate his older brother’s skill until just now.

“If only I had known you were so skilled,” Jin Baihua murmured, “I would have simply controlled your mind and had you labor for me like a slave rather than imprisoning you.”

Devil Fennu spoke, [Don’t forget what we came here for. As long as we got an immortal descendant’s blood even if we don’t collect the rest of the blood the barrier can be destroyed. The blood of the immortals is potent by nature. It wouldn’t allow itself to be mixed with other bloodlines and would cause rejection enough to shake or destroy a mere barrier.]

[Wow~ this place looks amazing! Your brother made all these changes. No wonder he is the chosen heir] Devil Shulan said. [By the way, when are you going to find me a vessel?]

Despite Devil Shulan’s taunting, Jin Baihua remained calm as if he got used to his prickly personality.

Jin Baihua says, “Go feel any nearby vessel that might suit you. I will help you convince them to sign a contract with you.”

[Hehehe~ you can’t take back your words. I must find the most beautiful vessel I can find.] Devil Shulan said.

Jin Baihua retorts, “The most beautiful being in this world is that cruel immortal that almost killed us multiple times. We will die if you approach him.”

Recalling the perfected features of Hei Anjing, Devil Shulan couldn’t help but feel extremely envious. He could not stop himself from admiring that person’s appearance. It was too flawless and unparalleled that no one would be able to deny his beauty.

Devil Shulan mumbled, [I know. I don’t want to die yet.]

Jin Baihua and the others were startled to hear noises coming from the adjacent eatery. In the restaurant, a certain group of people assembled. Jin Baihua and the two demons were intrigued by the ruckus after hearing the audience’s gasps and awe.

Devil Shulan said, [What’s happening there? Is there a contest or something?]

“Let’s go check. I need to gather information as well before sneaking in the Jin Tiangui Sect,” said Jin Baihua as he walked towards the crowded restaurant and saw the boisterous scene.

He noticed a young woman in the center of the crowd who was constantly eating. She continued to eat incessantly despite the table in front of her being covered with stacks of empty plates. The owner of the eatery with the all-you-can-eat buffet is standing close by and frowning at the gluttonous girl seated at the table.

The cooks in the rear kitchen all burst out sobbing and exclaimed,

“Boss, there’s no more meat!”

“There is not even a stalk of vegetables left!”

“Sir, all our spices, condiments, and all are wiped out!”

“There is nothing that can be cooked anymore!!”

The restaurant’s owner fainted and his staff caught him. He was twitching like a drowning fish while saying,

“C-Close... close the restaurant. Send the guest out! We are now closing for today!!!”

Jin Baihua saw the young woman sipping soup broth out of a dish the size of a basin. He was astonished, which he couldn’t help. The two Devils, who were as surprised as he was, at last, started speaking.

Devil Shulan says, [This Rice bucket with a black hole-like stomach. Don’t tell me... Is this...!!!?]

[Go capture her. This is Baoshi’s vessel. He would be a useful helping hand. You have a lot of money don’t you, Baihua? Buy as much food as you can and we can order her around. Baoshi’s skills are extremely useful.] Devil Fennu said.

Jin Baihua asked, “Who is Baoshi?”

Devil Shulan answered, [The Devil that rules Gluttony. He loves to eat the most and he would lend help to those who feed him and eats those who don’t give him any food. But it seems that the vessel he is in is quite rich and he can eat this much as he wants to.]

Jin Baihua noticed the crest of the young lady and commented, “No. The clan she is from is indeed a merchant family but they aren’t as rich as the Jin Clan. They shouldn’t have enough to let her eat as much like this all the time.”

After Jin Baihua utters these comments, as was to be predicted, a number of hungry-looking guards showed up and went to prevent the young woman from eating. They offered the restaurant owner their full payment and begged the young woman to go with them.

“Young Miss. Young Miss! Please stop eating anymore! The main house is being sold already. We have no more money to buy food!”

“Please stop eating already! There isn’t enough money in the family yet.”

“Most of the things in the house are already sold. Young Miss, stop eating please!”

The young lady hugging a huge bowl of soup suddenly stopped eating and looked at the newly arrived malnourished guards and yelled, “What did you say?! No more money to buy me food!!!!”
