I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot [BL]

After being caught by the doctor at the farms, Wang Xiajie was once again forbidden to leave his house. The only difference is that the duration is shorter than the first one; at least this time, he only needs to stay in his house for three days. Wang Xiajie was passing the time reading the books of herbs from the old man.

He plans to make an herb garden on the mountain and sell it as a product in the market.

Unlike his wife, he had no interest in this kind of thing. No, he rarely gets hurt, and even if he does, he can just use the healing techniques his brother, Shen Siwang, taught him before. But now that he had nothing to do in this village, reading this book can be considered something of the past. While he was resting, he could only stay at Uncle Shun and Aunt Yan's house.

As for the reason why, obviously it's because his house is under construction. The old couple was happy to have him, while Zhi Yue pretended to stay next door to supervise the house. As planned, they wanted to build an ancient mansion in this village. That's why Wang Xiajie bought all the land around him and the old couple next door.

Of course, the house of the old couple would be rebuilt next after his mansion was built.

Uncle Shun saw the book in Wang Xiajie's hand, and it seems similar to the handwriting of the old doctor from the village.

Uncle Shun asked, "Isn't that the old doctor's writing? Xiao Jie, do you plan to become a doctor?"

"No. But I plan to plant a few herbs to sell to the old man. He already agreed to this and lent me this book so I can buy the herbs that can be planted on the mountains," said Wang Xiajie.

Uncle Shun nods as he agrees to the plan of Wang Xiajie with regards to the herbs. These kinds of plants that can be used to cure people are rare and even expensive. Expensive herbs like ginseng cost gold coins in the capital; even for a borderland like theirs, it would cost a few hundred teals.

"Planting herbs is better. You don't need to hunt in the meantime. You can focus more on your fields first," Uncle Shun said.

Wang Xiajie pretended that he didn't notice when Uncle Shun seemed capable of reading. After all, most people in Anjia Village are illiterate, and only nobles or cultivators are capable of reading. Wang Xiajie was the previous human emperor, so being able to read is a natural skill for a leader. But what about Uncle Shun?

Isn't he supposed to be a commoner who has only lived his life with his wife in this borderland?

Aunt Yan, come over and bring a huge pot of chicken soup noodles for dinner. There are also a few meat buns made by her, served on the table, and a few empty bowls as well as cutlery for the three of them to use. There are actually four, and after the food was served on the table, Aunt Yan went to the bamboo fence of the house to shout at Zhi Yue.

"XIAO YUE, TIME TO EAT! COME OVER NOW!" Aunt Yan shouted.

A childish voice was heard replying from the other house, saying, "I'M COMING OVER NOW, AUNT YAN!"

In a few minutes, Zhi Yue, who was watching over the house, ran to the next house to join their meals. The old couple laughed at how the young servant was reacting, but they welcomed him inside the house with a smile.

Uncle Shun said, "There is no need to run next time. The food will not run."

"Hehe, it's not like that, Uncle Shun. I am just hungry," said Zhi Yue.

Aunt Yan chuckled and pinched Zhi Yue's cheeks and said, "No wonder you are still a child. Okay, Aunt made a lot, so eat as much as you want."

"I know Aunt Yang loves me a lot!" said Zhi Yue. Continue reading at empire

At the Imperial Palace...

The news of his subordinates making a move on his ex-husband just to solidify his position as the Human Emperor was shocking for the current Human Emperor. Especially when he had to hear it from the mouth of his enemy and he made a fool in front of him.

It's no wonder the great general looked at him as if he had killed his family; in reality, it is not much different, as it was because of him that his master was now gone and his whereabouts are unknown.

It was only at this moment that the human emperor finally believed that he didn't know anything about the situation of the previous emperor. All this time, he thought that he just didn't want to say anything to him, as he was someone who forced his master to abdicate and stole his throne.

The human emperor stood at his throne and held his temples with one hand, looking so depressed and tired, and suddenly he laughed like a madman.

Hahaha~

"No wonder I can't find him! No wonder you always say there are no results for investigation. In reality, it's because you old men knew that he was gone that you would always give Zhen the same fucking answer!"

"There is no news?"

"Of course! How can there be any traces? Just how large and wide the sea is? Wanting to find one who fell in it is just a ridiculous task! It's because of this that there would not be any result. Even the great general can't find him, much less you old bastards who never tried to do so at all!"

The cold, piercing eyes of the human emperor fell on the old ministers and officials kneeling on the ground. They were all collectively trembling. There is no way they wouldn't be afraid. The anger the human emperor is now showing is real rage.

Those silver irises, slowly tainting with the shade of darkness, were what they feared the most. Because in this state, their human emperor will kill regardless of reason. To him, as long as his anger is unleashed, he will remain like this. Bad-tempered, cold, and ruthless. Their human emperor is usually only like this towards his enemies.

"Your Majesty! Please calm your anger!"

"Please spare us!"

"We only wanted what was right for you!"

"That's right, even if the previous emperor is useless, he is still of royal blood and can at any time reclaim the throne!"

"We only did what is best for you, Your Majesty!"

What they didn't know was that the more they said, the more the madness within those silver irises spread. All of a sudden, the shadow under their foot started moving as if it were alive. All those men kneeling on the ground were lifted from the ground and choked.

Cough!

The human emperor spoke; his voice was hoarse, as if the devil itself were talking. "Since when has Zhen allowed you to make decisions for Zhen? Moreover, if there is someone who is going to kill that man, it can only be me!!"

"Not you! Not anyone! Only I!"

"You didn't even allow me to kill him with my own hands. How could you do this to me!?"

Argh!!

The sounds of people getting choked collectively resounds in the throne hall. Only one of these ministers and officials spoke up, trying to save his life.

"There... is a... way."

This voice was soft but was still heard by the human emperor. It was because of these words that all of the men in the hall were spared at this moment.

"Speak. I don't mind replacing all of you if you don't have a way to appease Zhen's anger!" said the human emperor.

"Cough! Your Majesty, the cultivators. They might have a way to find people. There is a certain group among the cultivators that could divine among certain things or people. They might be able to check if a person is dead or alive!" The old minister said.

The human emperor looked interested in this skill, and his anger slowly calmed down as he once again sat on his throne with a languid expression.

"Sounds interesting. Go and bring me that person," the human emperor said.

The ministers and officials looked at one another and hesitated to speak out. But if no one explained properly to the human emperor, all of them might die. The oldest minister who spoke out had no choice but to talk again.

"Your Majesty, those people are not someone we mortals can invite. They are mostly connected to the sect masters of their factions, and... they have exalted standing due to this skill."

"Please forgive us, Your Majesty! It's truly out of our capabilities."

"Please be merciful!"

"Please don't be angry again, Your Majesty."

At this point, upon knowing there is a way to check whether his ex-husband is dead or alive, his anger had completely subsided. He wasn't even angry when his ministers and officials said they couldn't help him invite that diviner. Thinking about it, cultivators look down on mortals, and if not for him protecting them, they would definitely get enslaved.

The human emperor asked, "Last time those fools visited, what do they want again? I was so annoyed by the way they spoke and almost killed those so-called cultivators on the spot."

"Your Majesty! They wanted that couple who called themselves gods."

"Oh~ that pair of useless couples who are more arrogant than those cultivators." The human emperor asked, "If I gave those two to them, would they allow me to meet their diviners? Either regardless of whether they agree or not, I'm going to speak with a diviner."

A minister said, "Your Majesty, please allow this old man to speak for you in this transaction."

"Go ahead. If you fulfill this task, I will agree to give you that thing you asked Zhen before," the human emperor said.

"Are you serious, Your Majesty!?"

"Yes. After all, that thing is useless to Zhen."

It was only at this point that these old ministers and officials were delighted by the task the human emperor had given them. For mortals who have a limited lifespan, most of them wanted to extend their lives a little bit longer than the rest.

Every subordinate of the human emperor knows that their exalted one possesses a heaven-defying pill that can extend one's life for ten or more years. The longevity pill, as its name suggests, can extend one's lifespan. But this kind of rare pill is something one usually treats as a legend. But for this group of old, sly foxes, how could they not know such a mysterious and useful thing?

The group of old ministers and officials chose to ignore them; they almost died under the hands of this individual and wanted to fulfill the current task more than ever.

"As you wish, Your Majesty!"

As soon as the minister took their leave, the human emperor, who was sitting on the throne lazily, suddenly sat up and held his head. Suddenly, black-like matter spread from the mole under his left eye, almost covering his whole face. These dark things gave him unbearable agony, even though his tolerance for pain is high.

This only means that the pain coursing within his body can even affect his soul.

Ugh!

A voice which is completely the same as that of the human emperor was heard in the dark throne hall.

{Heh~ it's truly amazing that you haven't gone insane despite the darkness corroding your soul. Every full moon, you will feel unbearable pain, as if your soul is being ripped apart. Despite the pain where you couldn't hold back moaning, you didn't dare tell anyone about it. If not for your resentment and obsession to that ex-husband of yours, you would have long gone insane.}

{It's just... how long can your sanity last?~ Hahaha~}

Only when the voice in his mind disappeared did the shadow-like thing spreading on his face retreat, and only a weird-shaped mole remained under his left eye. The human emperor pants soundlessly. His whole body felt heavy and his hands were trembling. Even his fair face is now completely devoid of cold and his lips were a bit purple from him holding back his screams.

He mumbles, "How long can my sanity last? Haha~ am I even still sane?"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Then he closes his eyes, trying to ignore the pain in his whole body, and rests. If one could see him at this moment, especially those who had met the God of Destruction before, they would have completely mistaken him for Hei Anjing.
