754 14.30 Last Violet Star – (Past) Heavenly Realm I
Sinner Qing Yuan said, “Why do I need to atone? The people I’ve killed deserve it! Why do I need to exchange my memories and beloved just to get a lighter punishment? I did indeed kill some innocents and I don’t regret it as it was the road I needed to step forward to kill those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds that caused the death of my wife. I may feel guilt about those innocent people’s deaths but I never regret doing what I’ve done!”
“A year sentence is 100 years in Purgatory. Even if your merits caused your sins do not reach the threshold of staying in that place for more than a year, if you choose to stay there you cannot get out until your sentence is finished,” said the Minister of Justice.
Sinner Qing Yuan asked, “How long do I need to stay there?”
“At least half a year, 50 years in Purgatory~ as for what you would experience there and what you would do in there I will never care. So~ what is your choice?” asked King Wuan.
Sinner Qing Yuan answered, “I will enter Purgatory.”
Unknown to him, when Qing Yuan had chosen this choice King Wuan who was observing him suddenly sneered as he averted his eyes as if he had gotten bored of him.
The Mediator spoke, “Sinner Qing Yuan would be thrown in Purgatory for half a year. After he comes out he can enter reincarnation with his beloved and be reborn together with vague memories of their past life and an oath of companions.h.i.+p. The trial ends!”
“Black Impermanence takes care of the sinner and brings him to Purgatory. Don’t let him out until he has suffered for 50 years in that place,” said King Wuan. His face had an ecstatic smile in the corner of his lips yet his silver eyes remained cold with glints of mockery.
This expression left Qing Yuan stunned and feeling as if he had made the wrong choice. He felt frightened in the depths of his heart.ReadNovelFull.com

King Wuan spoke, “I’m an Impartial G.o.d. Even though you would only need to stay in Purgatory for half a year, the time in that plane is faster than the time outside. 50 years of suffering and torture. That crooked righteousness of yours should be corrected within that allotted time.”
“N-No! NO!! NO! I take back my words! I will atone... I choose Atonement!!!” said Sinner Qing Yuan when suddenly another soul appeared behind King Wuan.
The appearance of the soul is one familiar in the memories of Qing Yuan. It was his Dao companion’s soul. Si Heiran’s soul.
Stunned Qing Yuan calls, “Hei’er?”
King Wuan spoke to the soul called Si Heiran.
“Is this the man you’ve chosen to tie your soul with? You weren’t even afraid of death and suffering to keep your dignity until the end for him but he was a bit frightened by unknown sufferings in Purgatory and immediately threw away the connection you both have. Moreover, memories couldn’t keep no matter what after reincarnation only your connection as a Dao companion remains and is replaced by a soul mate connection instead. Are you still going to keep your connection with him?” asked King Wuan.
Si Heiran hesitated to speak for a moment but his eyes kept staring at the man who was about to throw him away and was now in tears. He knows that this immortal is giving him a chance to change his life. As a dao companion whose souls were connected to each other even if they were reborn without their memories of their past lives, that connection itself would pull them together and feel for each other all over again.
“I... I will wait for him to come out,” said Si Heiran with a forced smile.
Such a smile looks more painful than his crying, for Qing Yuan who had hurt the heart of his beloved couldn’t help but fill his heart with guilt which morphed into thorns that pierced his heart. It was suffocating and extremely painful to bear. His tears fell like a waterfall.
Sinner Qing Yuan screamed, “Wait for me. Please wait for me. I will atone with you all my life and make sure to make you happy in our next life. Please... I beg you... Please forgive this weak me whom you had loved.”
“Um~ I will wait for you. No matter how long it takes...” said Si Heiran.
King Wuan ordered, “White Impermanence send this soul back to the Reincarnation Hall.”
“Yes, your highness!” said the White Impermanence who suddenly appeared behind the soul of Si Heiran and disappeared from the Judgment Hall with Si Heiran.
The Black Impermanence also disappeared with Sinner Qing Yuan who would be thrown to Purgatory as he had chosen. No one even noticed when the two ministers that serve Lord Ye had disappeared. Now in the large hall of Judgment, only King Wuan and Lord Ye remain.
Lord Ye asked, “Was this what you wish to see? Just what are you trying to gauge between the two mortals’ love? No... You even did the same time for an immortal couple. Just what are you trying to do?”
“I wanted to see this so-called love they speak so grandly of. As you know for my bloodline this so-called love can either become a curse or a blessing for me. I just wanted to know what it was before I looked for my other half like how my Imperial Father found my Imperial Mother or how my Imperial Brother found my brother-in-law. That’s all...” answered King Wuan.
Lord Ye said, “But there is no need for you to play with other people’s feelings.”
“Am I just playing with their feelings? I was giving them a chance. It just this chance had two endings: eternal parting or eternal love. It just happens that most of it ended up the first option and only a few entered the boundaries of the second one,” said King Wuan.
Lord Ye asked, “What about now? Have you found your answer?”
“Not yet but...”
“But?”
“But at the very least I am willing to sacrifice my everything to protect the person whom I would share my eternity with. Let all suffering befall me as long as my beloved keeps living happy and free. That is enough reward for all the agony I am willing to bear,” said King Wuan before leaving the hall like all others.
Only Lord Ye who was rendered speechless by King Wuan’s words was left behind unable to process the words the latter had just spoken.

Outside the Judgment Hall...
Hei Anjing glanced at the hall not far away from his line of sight. He looks serious as he recalls the last expression Lord Ye had after he had spoken his lines.
“He looks dumbfounded. My love has always been dense when it comes to love. But when he fell, he would be obsessed and wouldn’t be willing to let go at all.”
“But would have thought that the Origin and the End would seal his original memories as Xia Jieye. They are interfering too much. Just what are they trying to do? It’s not like I would let them get what they want.”
“Should I enjoy it? The last world of my happiness~”
At this time Hei Anjing had been in this world for centuries. When he used up his divinity in the last world to help his beloved kill the World Eater’s fragment, his weakened soul fragment was pulled into this cultivation world. What was surprising is that the vessel he got in this world possessed the same name and appearance as his. Plus, the curse of this body’s bloodline is very much similar to his own Clan’s eccentricity.
To love only one person in eternity. It was the curse of love and eternal time.
Moreover, Xia Jieye got his memories sealed which is only possible if the End is personally interfering.

One day, King Wuan and Lord Ye were summoned to the Ice Jade Palace by the Immortal Emperor himself. This is for the two G.o.ds to experience the only calamity in their life. A mission they would need to complete once in their whole life.
The immortal emperor sat on his immortal throne overlooking everything in this world. Unknown what happened to his majesty but his face and whole being is devoid of any emotion or feeling.
His appearance is similar to King Wuan’s. His eyes were silver in color but unlike Hei Anjing, it wasn’t the shade of moonlight but almost the color of the snow itself. White instead of silver. His long black hair spreads behind his back reaching the floor like black satin spreading on a floor made of white jade. His features were more mature than King Wuan yet the shape of their lips and nose were the same.
The Immortal Emperor is King Wuan’s biological father. Like him, he also possessed the curse of their bloodline. A promise of eternal love in person. If the chosen being accepts then there is no problem but if it was rejected then the one with the curse of Hei could only live a life without feelings and emotions as those were all given to the chosen other half. The moment they were rejected, feelings and emotions would leave the Hei and he would live a life not much different from a puppet with no feelings.
It just happened that the marriage between the Immortal Emperor and Immortal Empress was an arranged one but the former truly loves his wife, unfortunately, his wife doesn’t love him. Because of this, he sat on the throne without any expression on his face except coldness. He couldn’t understand emotions and would act rationally using only his brain to think and make decisions. Like a machine that had everything except for a heart.
King Wuan and Lord Ye upon being summoned arrived in the throne room and kneeled before the Immortal emperor. The immortal emperor did even give King Wuan special attention despite being his biological youngest son.
As if expecting it, King Wuan accepted his father’s action as if he is used to it. Hei Anjing is used to being treated as a stranger or an ordinary subordinate that serves the Immortal Emperor. The original used to expect love from his Immortal parents but never got it even at the end of his life so when Hei Anjing took over, he who had no feelings for the Immortal Emperor had longed to treat him like a bystander in his life. If there is someone Hei Anjing treated well in the Heavenly Realm, that would only be his elder brother, King Wan, and his brother-in-law, Lord Bai.
The Immortal Emperor spoke, “(This Emperor) Zhen had summoned you both for a reason. The Devil Race is making movements in the Mortal Realm. Descent in the land of mortals and eliminate any Devil Race in that plane. That would be your main mission.”
“You both cannot enter the Land of Mortals with your divine vessel and would be reborn in a mortal vessel instead. Your memories of this upper realm would be sealed and only the mission would remain in your thoughts. After you complete your missions you may come back here to get your rewards. A failure of a mission meant punishment as well. Keep that in mind.”
King Wuan and Lord Ye responded, “Yes, Your Majesty!”
The Immortal Emperor waves his hand and says, “King Wuan, you may return. Zhen had something to say to Lord Ye.”
Hei Anjing was startled that he was being sent away before his lover. He reacted as if he didn’t care but within his heart, countless calculations and theories had been made.
Kung Wuan bowed his head once as he bid farewell.
“Well then... Please excuse this one as this king will be taking his leave.”
He walked out of the palace without looking back. His straight-back and elegant demeanor made people in the palace couldn’t help but stare at his departing figure. Unfortunately, no one was fortunate enough to get him to look at them. Like an ice mountain flower, he looks detached from the world and unreachable. The other could only stare at him from afar and just watch.
No one knew what the Immortal Emperor had told Lord Ye after King Wuan had left. A few days later, King Wuan and Lord Ye entered the reincarnation pool with only their soul as they left their divine vessel in the Heavenly Realm.
