Chapter 200: 7.0.1 Prologue - In the System Space before the Seventh World I

The troop had spent three hundred years in the last world. It took that long for the energy of the world to be completely depleted. During those times, the group had enjoyed their lives. They've bidden one's time until the star's lifespan is used up. Everyone had also watched the Willow Deity ascend towards the upper worlds.

After Ye Xiajie, Lou Ye and Yun Ming had seen them off, Hei Anjing and his son, followed by Yun Suisen and his husbands as well as the duo, Baize and Liu Yan, had returned to System Yue's Space.

System Space. 

Surrounded by galaxies and stars of all kinds. But the place is empty of anything aside from countless world portals scattered within the space. Everyone was passively following Hei Anjing within such a separate dimension. 

With a single snapped from Hei Anjing's fingers, the space around them distorted. Couches and a table full of desserts appeared out of nowhere. Zhi Yue, who is supposed to have authority over the space, was stunned by this event. Only he the owner of the dimension is supposed to be able to do such a thing, but how could his host do so.

Lucas and his two husbands took a seat on the open couch. Baize pulled his shocked host with him in the other. Hei Anjing took over one couch on his own as well. Zhi Yue stood behind him with confusion on his face. No one dared to speak first and all of their eyes were on the one with the highest standing among them. They saw him looking at his son who was currently sitting on his lap with a smile.

Ye Jingxia is staring at his daddy's face, "Daddy, are you sick?" his small hands touching his daddy's face.

Hei Anjing gently smiled at his baby boy, "No~ daddy is only a bit sleepy. Xiao Jing grandpa and granduncles wanted to see you? Do you wish to see them?" he asked.

"Grandpa? Granduncles? Xiao Jing have?" asked the little bun.

"Of course! They are here. To pick you up. Play with Grandpa and Grand Uncles." said Hei Anjing as he made the little bun look at Lucas and the two who were sitting with them.

Their former demeanors of playfulness and naivety are gone. This is especially true about the one who sat at the center who wears the face of Lucas Evergreen. He sat on the couch with his back straight and his legs crossed elegantly with an aloof temperament. 

On the other hand, the one who is wearing Su Liye's face stares excitedly at the little bun on Hei Anjing's lap. His eyes were full of love and doting. Obviously, he wanted to grab the little bun on the latter's lap but still held back his eagerness. 

Shi Moye, who bears a wild aura from before, has changed as well. He continues to serve his wife beside him but the aura around him changes from wilderness to extreme detachment. As if the man beside him is the only one within his world.

The man who calls himself Shi Moye served a cup of cafe au lait and offered it to one who wears the face of Lucas. 

"Wifey, Here's your cafe au lait," said Shi Moye.

Lucas looked at his silly husband and kissed him on his lips.

"You're rewarded, hubby." said the man who wears Lucas's appearance.

Receiving the kiss, Shi Moye happily carried his wife to his lap and bear-hugged him. Su Liye gave out a long sigh at this scene while Hei Anjing watched them with an unconcerned gaze like he is used to it. On the other hand, Ye Jingxia, Zhi Yue, Baize, and Liu Yan were rendered speechless with the scene that was happening before them.

Sigh~

"Can you two stop spreading dog food in front of the children? Jing'er might be used to it but the others aren't!" Lightly reprimands by the man who wears Su Liye's face.

Now Zhi Yue, Baize, and Liu Yan were completely confused.

Liu Yan whispered to his system, "X-Xiaobai~ what is happening here?"

Baize frowned for a moment before replying, "This must mean that Brother Lang and the other two weren't them? Instead, it was someone else who was wearing their appearance. Anyway it is better not to get involved." he whispered back to his curious host.

Zhi Yue who overheard the two at the corner decides to do the same thing as well.

In contrast to the noise in the area, Ye Jingxia stayed silently seated at his daddy's lap. He keeps observing the three people sitting in front of him. Those adorable big eyes were especially looking at Lucas who gave him a smile when their eyes met.

Ye Jingxia went down from his daddy's lap and ran towards the opposite couch. He continues to move his head and stare at Lucas and Su Liye alternately. Everyone waited for him to speak and watch him with a kind, doting gaze the elders of the family give to their young offspring.

Then the little bun suddenly exclaimed, "The blessing of snow! Like mine and daddy!!!" yelled Xiao Jing this time he is staring at the two with an adorable smile on his face.

Lucas hooked up his lips a bit and asked the boy, "How about this uncle here?" Then he pointed at Shi Moye who was hugging him.

Shi Moye moves his head from his wife's shoulder and lets the little bun look at him openly. 

"Hm~ smells a bit like father, but... But it feels different. Un! It's different but feels a little like father!" answered Ye Jingxia.

Shi Moye raised his eyebrows for a bit to show his surprise. He placed down his wife beside him and carried up the little bun to his lap and asked, "How little? Give granduncle a sample."

"Un~ the size of a grain!" answered Ye Jingxia. Then he looked at himself and said, "Xiao Jing used to have the same thing but... after cultivating the ice elements in my body froze it then it completely disappeared!"

When these words had been said by the little bun the man wearing Su Liye's face showed the greatest reaction. He took the little bun from Shi Moye and observed the little bun's body with his true qi. This time his appearance as Su Liye slowly fades. 

A face that looks half similar to Hei Anjing's human form has appeared. The hair flowing behind his back had the same color of obsidian. With similar phoenix-shaped eyes like Anjing, only his irises gleam with the color of cerulean that wouldn't lose compared to the shade of the sea. This man's appearance is closely the same as the Hei Anjing before them. Obviously, this person is related to Hei Anjing by blood. This is Hei Anjing's biological dad, Mo Yue.

"My dear grandson let grandpa check something. Don't worry it won't hurt~" said Mo Yue while smiling at Jingxia.

Ye Jingxia nodded his little head while staring at the man who suddenly changed appearance before him. He could see that this man holding him looked so much like his daddy.

Baby Xiao Jing's thoughts: 'Wow~ looks so much like daddy~ Is he my grandpa then?'

Suddenly everyone saw Xiao Jing smiling when he looked at Mo Yue then moved his head to look at Lucas beside his grandpa.

Lucas and Shi Moye chuckle at his cuteness and remove their disguises as well. An appearance closer to Mo Yue was exchanged from Lucas Evergreen's young face. The formerly pitch-black hair turns into a color that of snow. His features are more refined than his daddy and grandpa. Handsome yet extremely beautiful.

Silvery and almost white. His emerald eyes fade and become cerulean like what his grandpa has and an appearance that looks a bit like his. Especially those phoenix-shaped eyes which are a trademark of their bloodline.

On the other hand, the man beside him changes greatly as well. His ordinary appearance turned captivating and holy. An irrefutable presence was exchanged from the former wildness. His hair turned from inky to a darker shade of mahogany. His features were godly and gentle. A smile is imprinted on his face but unlike his daddy's playfulness, this person's smile has a hidden feeling of danger. Ye Jingxia was almost bewitched by those pairs of golden orbs with hints of viridescence in them.

The couple is none other than Mo Baojun and Shen Siwang.

When the appearance of these two was revealed, Zhi Yue, Baize, and Liu Yan immediately kneeled on the ground. They respectfully saluted towards the three. This time they were trembling and didn't dare to raise their heads.

"We bow to the Ruler Gods and the God of Judgement!"

Mo Baojun looked at the three kneeling before them. His expression remained cold and nonexistent. Only when looking at his family did his deadpan face change but towards strangers, not only his expressions are cold even his whole temperament had become icy.

The God of Life and Death didn't even return the greetings from the three and they've only heard a light humming before they've felt the space around them distorted. They were instantly thrown somewhere. They all felt on the ground but thankfully that the area then had fallen onto is covered in carpet. Their fall didn't hurt much.

Zhi Yue was the first one to recognize where they were thrown to. This is especially true when he saw a familiar face on his knee beside him looking at him with wide eyes. Even his single-lens eye wasn't able to hide his shocked expression.

"B-Boss?" called Zhi Yue lightly to the man on his knee beside him.

The boss Zhi Yue calls is An Liang. The current yet temporary Lord God of Nether System.

"Shss! Shss! Quiet." whispered An Liang.

Then they've heard a man's voice seated at the throne from the far center where they currently are. Zhi Yue, Baize, and Liu Yan were teleported to the Nether System throne room. This is the place where the Lord God of the Nether System meets the newly brought prisoners and bestows their punishment. 

The man sitting at the throne spoke, "Hm~ if you are here then my wife and brothers-in-law have returned."

Now at the throne, a man with long coal-black hair wearing a robe sat on it indifferently. Those piercing argent eyes were something that looked familiar to Zhi Yue. Those were the same silver eyes his host becomes when his anger is at its peak. Now looking closely at this immortal yet demon-like person seated at the throne, Zhi Yue felt that his host was looking at him.

The God of Punishment. He is one of the real owners of the Nether System. The other half of the God of Judgement. He is infamous on all battlefields in all realms. With the title of the general in all realms, he is considered undefeatable and feared by almost all warriors. Hei Sian, Hei Anjing's father.

This time the trembling and fear the three had suffered from meeting the Ruler Gods haven't completely dissipated and yet here they are meeting one of the Sovereigns of the Underworld. Zhi Yue took the lead and kneel beside his boss. Followed by Baize and Liu Yan who had yet to calm down.

"Greetings to the God of Punishment!"

Hei Sian stares at the four, kneeling in front of him. The longer he stares the more Liu Yan trembles. Liu Yan almost fainted from the trepidation of his heart inside his chest. The soul is almost shaking from fright. This is the first time he met the origin gods of their worlds.

Hei Sian lightly responded to their greeting. "Mm~ you can calm down for now. Liang, I've visited A'Ye just now. For now, he is stable thanks to the bloodstone A'Jing left for him but because of this he... sigh~ forget it!

Since A'Jing is busy collecting A'Ye's soul fragments I will give you the full authority in the Nether System which means your authority equals A'Ye's original standing. You can ignore those elders; they were all useless anyway!

Now that my wife has returned I will end my visit. It will take a while before they finish their reunion. Just wait for you to be summoned. I heard from my wife that A'Jing's memories had fully returned."

An Liang was stunned by the sudden news of Hei Anjing's memories returning. His tears couldn't be helped but fell unconsciously in happiness and sadness.

"Please leave these things here to me, Sovereign Lord Hei." said An Liang as he wipes his tears.

Hei Sian nodded at him before casually disappearing from the throne. Obviously, he went to a separate dimension where his wife and the rest of the family are. Based on the current result, it seems that Mo Baojun, Mo Yue, and Shen Siwang played a role in the last world. They pretended to be Yun Suisen, Shi Moye, and Su Liye while at the same time used the identities of Lucas Evergreen and his husbands.

Hei Sian was left in the Nether System to check on the situation of Ye Xiajie. This is why he didn't enter the same world as his wife and brothers-in-law. Well, it's more accurate to say that his wife and brothers-in-law left him to do all the work while they've spent time with their descendants.
