Chapter 880 - 880 14.156 Last Violet Star - The Twin’s Reaction
Hei Wan and Bai Hua made the decision to contact the Immortal Emperor as soon as they could after leaving the Mortal Realm. Along the journey back to the upper realm, they would aid in the battle against the demons. Yun Huaxia and Bai Qiyin made the decision to first gather the clan’s elders and make plans on how to avoid a significant number of deaths. They also want to involve and support one another throughout the catastrophe with the other Great Sects.
Together, Hei Anjing and Xia Jieye built a massive defensive formation surrounding the entirety of the east city. Any demons that contact the barrier are instantly annihilated and prevented from entering their territory.
Zhi Yue and Zhi Yang assumed human form under Hei Anjing and Xia Jieye’s commands. They are to support Bai Qiyin and Yun Huaxia. Their primary goal is to maintain their survival. The young disciples were also called, so Yun Anjie and the other three departed the Crimson Cloud Peak with the Sect Masters. Once the house’s visitors had left, the two people left behind, Hei Anjing and Xia Jieye, had a tense atmosphere between them. It was mostly Xia Jieye whose mood turned bad to worse. Hei Anjing was aware that his husband believed these people weren’t deserving of his time. As a God that didn’t own this world, his reactions are understandable.
Xia Jieye’s customary soothing voice and smile were absent as he turned to face his wife. He appeared to say, “Let’s head back to the Nether System. I’ll kill the king of all devils to complete your mission for you. We are leaving after that.” His words are obviously not accepting any possibility of rejection and more like a command instead of just simple words.
Sigh~ “My love... If that’s what you wish I can comply but... the babies might not agree.” Hei Anjing said.
As a God from the highest realm, Hei Anjing hardly gets attached to anyone. He may appear to be kind and sympathetic to others, but this is only because he is carrying out his responsibilities for the vessels entrusted to him. Xia Jieye has become even more aloof. He solely cares about his alter ego, Shen Siwang, and his beloved, Jing’er, in his world. If his wife and brother don’t genuinely care about them, the rest isn’t going to matter to him either. He felt that his wife treats the people of this world as more of a duty than real family so he can say those words before.
After hearing what his wife had said, he looked down and noticed that the twins he was holding were crying uncontrollably and were staring up at him. Although their babies only have the shape of toddlers, they are intelligent enough to comprehend what their parents are saying. Hei Anxia and Ye Jingmo understood their father’s desire to depart this world when they heard what he had spoken. Their brothers, uncles, aunts, grandparents, and great-grandparents were of little concern to him. When they considered their deaths, they felt sorrowful.
Hei Anxia said, “Baba... Unkles can’t come? Hwo bout YheYe?”
.....
“Nho! I dhon’t!... Not leabing! No. Nho!!!” yells Ye Jingmo. This is the first time Baby Jingmo shout this why while wailing like a child is supposed to.
The twins started punching their father’s chest with their little fists. These babies, in contrast to Hei Anjing and Xia Jieye, nonetheless lack the ability to regulate their emotions. In other words, they form attachments to people too quickly. If the demons had attacked when they were fully grown up, they would have known their true identities and react accordingly like their parents, but because they are newborns, it would have been different.
Xia Jieye was forced to let Hei Anxia and Ye Jingmo fly away since they were struggling to escape him and risking injury. The twins flew to Hei Anjing, their other dad.
Wua~ Wuwuwu~ sobs~
While coaxing the twins, “Don’t cry. Shush~ my babies don’t cry. Father didn’t really mean that. He just said the wrong thing.” The babies are hard to coax and Hei Anjing had to use his special ability with words ‘Authority’ on them to force them to sleep. “Sleep, Babies. Everything is alright.”
After the twins stopped sobbing and slept off in Hei Anjing’s arms, their dad noticed their helpless father who was worriedly watching them but powerless to intervene. After all, he had never been a parent before, and there were even twins to coax.
Xia Jieye said, “I... I don’t mean to make them cry.”
“My love... Like you I don’t really care what happened to this world. If it was just the two of us I would agree with you and return to Vearth. There is actually no need to get involved with this. But... Our babies are different. They are still very young. Adding the fact that the moment they opened their eyes they not only saw us but also Hei Wan and the rest. It wouldn’t be surprising that they are attached to them. This is the real reason why agree to Yun Huaxia’s request.”
“If we don’t help him how would he be able to ascend in this world? Among us, only he and Jin Shiyan haven’t become immortal yet. Even though he doesn’t say anything I know that he felt inferior about it. This calamity can be considered a chance for them. We don’t have to get involved in their fight. Our target is after all the King of All devils in this world.” Hei Anjing said.
“I... I didn’t mean to make them cry. I’m sorry...”
Xia Jieye watches his babies, who have tears streaming down their faces. He can’t help but reach out and tenderly wipe their faces. His earlier anger-induced apathy had diminished. He was aware that he was no longer genuinely alone and that his choice had to affect his wife and children as well as himself. Xia Jieye apologized to Jing’er and repented for being too abrupt. Hei Anjing was overjoyed to see his hubby express such feelings toward his children. He was aware that Xia Jieye began to share his affection for their children.
Hei Anjing kissed his cheeks and said, “Of course I forgive you. My love, look after our babies. I need to fortify the formation around the city.”
“Do you want me to help?” asked Xia Jieye.
“No need, it would be done in a flash. I will be back soon. Just cook lunch so we can start eating when I come back.” Hei Anjing said.
After giving his wife a kiss on his forehead, Xia Jieye took the sleeping twins from his wife’s arms to his, “Okay. What do you want to eat for lunch?”
“Hm~ how about some roasted lamb chops?” answered Hei Anjing.
Xia Jieye nodded his head and said, “Hm. I will make it for you. Come back soon?”
“I will,” said Hei Anjing before disappearing in thin air as he used spatial teleportation to arrive at the place he wanted to go.

What happened a few hours ago before the barrier between the Mortal Realm and Infernal Region was broken?
At the edge of the Mortal Realm...
As they approached the periphery of the Mortal Realm’s domain, Jin Baihua and Xing Fei arrived.
Beyond the green land they are walking on is a place that is red in hue. One could tell which territory belonged to mankind and which belonged to devils and demons with ease. Xing Fei and Jin Baihua have never witnessed a scenery like this before.
The dirt of the Infernal land is crimson. The elements of fire and darkness are abundant in this barren area. From the opposite side, not even a single blade of grass is sprouting; instead, black trees formed of unidentified minerals have sprung from the earth’s scarlet color. Instead of flowing water, miniature rivers and ponds are formed by boiling hot lava. The Infernal Region is unsettling and dark, yet the setting was distinctive.
Xing Fei, who frequently slept, was up today. This is because Devil Shulan, who had been in control of his body for a full week without sleep, felt extremely exhausted as a result. Being awake for a week is already beyond his boundaries as the Devil of Sloth, and Xing Fei would have had to take over if he had passed out and fallen asleep. Fortunately, they reached their objective before Devil Shulan dozed out.
“It doesn’t look horrible. It’s not too bright, and it looks warm,” said Xing Fei, yawning. However, as he tried to extend his hand, he felt an invisible wall beyond the red dirt. Although he was startled, his expression remained relaxed. “Is this the barrier from the tales that keeps those from the outside from entering? There seems to be something here—an unseen wall.”
“Well, our job is to destroy it,” stated Jin Baihua. “Yes, it’s the world barrier constructed by the former human cultivators that sacrificed themselves to safeguard the mortal realm from the Devil Race.”
When Jin Baihua described the barrier and their plans to demolish it, Xing Fei, who had no connections to or prominent people in the Mortal Realm, did not react much. This person wants to accept death and go to eternal sleep. He was too sluggish to live and had no attachment to the world, which is how he came to be the perfect fit for Devil Shulan’s vessel.
“How are we going to do it?” asked Xing Fei, who was still yawning as if he was about to fall asleep any minute now.
Jin Baihua sighed at his reaction and said, “Fennu said it would take a while for his real vessel to come over and he needs to carry over your devil with him. Just sleep if you are too sleepy.”
Xing Fei answered, “All right.”
He started to get ready for sleep as soon as he said it and laid down on the plush grass. He pulled out a pillow and blanket from the space ring Devil Shulan had given him before closing his eyes. There are several tidy blankets and cushions of all types within, along with bedding that Devil Shulan purchased in the Mortal Realm. Xing Fei was free to utilize whatever suited him.
Jin Baihua was unsure of how to respond when he saw Xing Fei nod off in such a vulnerable location. He made the decision to ignore him and wait for Devil Shulan and Devil Fennu to arrive.
Two devils eventually materialized before Jin Baihua and Xing Fei in their true forms. Even if there is an unseen barrier between them, one can still clearly observe the stark differences between the two races. Shulan and Fennu have red and black skin, respectively.
Fennu, who has red skin and was born with stronger muscles than Shulan who seems to be petite and skinny. Though they expose more skin than they humans, the two were dressed in robes like those used by human cultivators. Fennu is dressed in a black robe with a chest opening that shows off his six-pack and strong chest. In comparison to the human race, his face is more attractive.
Devil Shulan, on the other hand, has a physique like that of adolescent boys. A young person who is small in stature. He has changed into a crimson brocade robe, which stands out sharply against his dark complexion. If it weren’t for the black wing on his back, his appearance would have been more similar to a dark elf. His eyes were so lazy-looking that he had to squint to open them and struggled to do so. He also chose to look somewhat feminine, despite the fact that, in comparison to Fennu, he is nothing more than a sluggish brat.
The majority of Devils are attractive, and the higher ranked they are, the more human-like they become. Devil Fennu had a horn on his head but no wings behind him. On the other hand, Devil
Shulan had a pair of black feathered wings on his back but no horns. These features and their skin color is what differentiate them from humans despite having a humanoid form.
