I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

With Gui Lan on the group the preparations for the plans were completed ahead of time. Gui Clan had given them their full support and manpower under Gui Lan's orders. Even though Gui Lan was under the lead of Xie Ye, the highest authority in the clan is still Gui Lan. As long as the young master returned to the family, all the elders, even the prime minister, followed his command without question. This is a bit different when Xie Ye was taking the lead. There are still a bit of skirmishes here and there for Xie Ye's every request but when it comes to Gui Lan no one exists.

But there are some changes that happened when Gui Lan returns to the clan. First is that, his manor behind the institute was given to the Yi Zheng and Li Xing couple because the Prime Minister commanded that Xie Ye and Gui Lan could only live with him in the Gui Mansion. At first Gui Lan didn't want to agree but his lover talked to him about it and the former could only agree to it. Gui Lan actually doesn't mind where he lives as long as Xie Ye is with him. Xie Ye on the other hand only did this because of the promise he made with the prime minister 15 years ago.

Evening.

Gui Clan's Mansion.

Dinner time.

In the huge luxurious dinner hall, a long table at the center. On the table a grand, delectable feast was served. Seated on the main seat is the Prime Minister, Gui Shi. On his right is Gui Lan followed by Xie Ye, Yun Li, Xu Lun, Yi Zheng and Li Xing. On his left is Old Man Ke, Ke Lou, Lin Ye and Professor Sen. On the sideline were servants on stand by for orders.

It is a magnificent family dinner with few guests.

Gui Shi lifted his wine glass and said, "This is a small banquet for the return of my son, Gui Lan."

Everyone followed after him and raised their wine glass as well.

"Cheers!"

After a short opening the feast began. Gui Lan was being served with food by both Gui Shi and Xie Ye on his both sides. Gui Lan just ate whatever was placed on his plate without question. 

Gui Shi said with a smile, "Xiao Lan dear, papa had the kitchen prepare your favorite grilled salmon. Have some."

Gui Lan chomped on the salmon in his bowl and ate, "Thank you, papa." he replied.

Gui Shi was delighted enough that he almost couldn't stop himself from grinning. He even averted his face immediately as he covered his nose. There's some trails of blood on his hand. Old butler Ke at once passed the tissue to his master to cover up his embarrassing moment.

"My boy is so cute~" murmured Gui Shi, breaking his serious façade as the prime minister. This old man has always dote on his son but the original is no different from the machine. After Gui Lan was changed this is the first time he shared a meal with this awkward old father.

"Master your nose." whispered Old Butler Ke.

Thankfully received the tissue, "Thanks Old Ke." said Gui Shi.

"Lan'er drink some soup for smooth digestion." said Xie Ye who passed a small bowl of soup and help Gui Lan drink it as he held the bowl.

"A'Ye is there a dessert?" asked Gui Lan.

"I've asked them to prepare some mooncake for you. You can only eat it after dinner." replied Xie Ye.

Beside them Yun Li and Xu Lun were eating silently while for some time Yun Li would only need to glance on a certain plate and Xu Lun would serve it near his lover to eat. Ke Lou and Lin Ye this pair is like that as well. Though Ke Lou would tease his wife first before giving him what he wants. Meanwhile the most awkward couple is Yi Zheng and Li Xing. This is the first time they dine with the prime minister much more to eat such luxurious meals before them. They were moving like robots as they served each other and ate their dinner. 

Professor Sen on the other hand was fed by dog food on all sides. Only him had no one to serve him or help him pick his food. He is the sole lonely dog among the rest. In his mind his system is teasing him nonstop that he even halted his eating.

[My host, you sure have a sad life. No one is there to serve you your meal. Your favorite is even on the other side of the table. No one can help you get it for you. Fufufu~]

"Tsk! Why did I even agree to upgrade you in the first place? Your bullying got worse and worse every world."

[Yes. The host had gone to hundreds of worlds but never had a relationship at all in those worlds. My host would be forever alone if this continues.] 

"You shut up! I'm not alone! If I don't find someone to marry in the future I will just marry you!!!"

[...---...]

"What? Are you speechless now, Baize? Oi~ are you still there?" 

[If the host wants to marry me you have to redeem me first. But are you sure? I am a criminal who is listed under the Nether System. I become a system to redeem for my crimes. Are you not afraid of me, Liu Yan?]

"...I heard that there are levels of crime under the book of Nether. Those who did the worst crimes had their memories completely sealed and had to suffer in countless worlds under the strict surveillance of a warden. Then the lightest begins to do service to the Main System as an auxiliary guide system like you. Obviously your crimes are the lightest you cannot scare me! Hmph!"

[Then I will wait for you to redeem me, Yan'er.]

"Of course you should wait. When I've reached God King stage I would have enough points to redeem from the Nether Prison."

Professor Sen noticed his favorite butter grilled abalone suddenly appearing near his plate. Obviously this dish is placed on the other side of the table. For it to suddenly appeared near him only two people in the place could do so. There is no way for Gui Lan to waste his time on him when his lover is beside him. Then it can only mean that it was his shy system who made the move. He didn't need who he did it, he only need to know that it was given to him by Baize. Thinking of this Professor Sen's lips slightly upturns as he delightfully enjoyed the dinner that night. 

The banquet ended successfully. The guests went home as they wished despite the offer for them to stay the night. Ke Lou and Lin Ye also excuse themselves for the evening as they still need to make some final adjustment for the plan. They needed to return to the metropolitan headquarters to do their job. In the mansion aside from the owner and those who live there, only the Xu Lun and Yun Li couples stayed for the night. They've remained just in case Xie Ye and Gui Lan would send out some orders.

In Xie Ye and Gui Lan's room, Xie Ye left for a while to prepare Gui Lan's midnight snacks and get him a hot drink. Gui Lan was seated on a couch looking outside the scenery from the opened veranda door. He looks so serious and no one knows what is in his mind.

[Host, is there a problem?]

"I was just thinking of something. It's not much of an important thought."

[Host, did your memories really returned?]

Gui Lan looked at his system and just gave him a mischievous smile but didn't give him a straight answer.

Instead he asked, "Are you afraid that I would kill your Lord if my memories returned?"

[...---...] System Yue gave him silence as an answer but silence when being questioned is often synonymous to yes.

"If there is one being in all realms that I couldn't kill outside of my family. It would only be Ye Xiajie, Yue."

Gui Lan's reply left System Yue astonished. He doesn't understand the meaning of the words his host means nor he could ask him again the reason why. He had a feeling that even if he asked his host wouldn't give him an answer. System Yue watched his host look at the horizon paralleled to his line of sight but couldn't see any different from that direction. He could only retain in silence waiting for the next command of his temporary host.

Meanwhile within those teal orbs was a calculative glint as if predicting things that might happen in the future. Followed by excitement and annoyance of knowing things that would be normally hidden for other people.

'If they learned that I am the one by his side, would the mastermind of this farce come out himself or... would he run away like all others who are scared of me? Let's wait. It won't be too late to kill them all off in the future. I wanted to spend a few more worlds together with A'Xia.'

The slight glint of silver within those teals irises diminishes as Gui Lan blinks his eyes. He decided to turn a blind eye on a few things to enjoy more time with his lover. When Xie Ye returns, Gui Lan joins him to enjoy the dessert and share a drink before they enter their slumber.

Eternal Palace.

House of the President.

Inside the dimmed lighted office of the president, a familiar looking man was kneeling on the ground with his head even touching the floor. The one on the floor is none other than the destroyer whose clone was erased by Gui Lan 15 years ago. After losing half of cultivation he who used to be a God King had degraded to just being a God with half of his soul completely gone. Right now he is even weaker than Professor Sen who just ascended as a God a few years ago. This man is named Lu Gian.

Lu Gian is currently kowtowing before the man in front of him. The features of the man before him is covered darkness except for his forest green eyes which looked down on Lu Gian.

While trembling badly in fear, Lu Gian kowtowed before the man even ignoring his bleeding forehead.

"Master. Master please little to this slave's words. There is someone strong in this star that was intentionally protecting that man's soul fragments. He is able to enter an original resident's vessel and he is able to command his system without consequences." Explained Lu Gian.

The emerald eyed man responded, "How strong is he? Did you witness anything else about that person you are talking about?"

"This slave didn't know how strong he was. When that person killed my clone he only used a High God cultivation to defeat my God level clone. I didn't notice anything weird except..."

"Except what?"

"His eyes turned into silver when he was very angry."

As Lu Gian mentioned this, the man before him suddenly staggers as he steps back as if he was shocked out of his mind. It took a while before his master spoke to him once again.

"What shade of silver? Is it the same color of the glistering moon!?"

Lu Gian flinched but his master's voice suddenly roared. "I-I... I don't remember. But this slave is sure that it was silver!!!" he replied as he lowered his head in fear that he might be killed.

"Useless." 

Lu Gian was suddenly kicked away from the man. He heard his ribs breaking but he still worked hard to crawl and kowtow before the man.

"Please forgive this slave. Please forgive this slave. Spare my live master. I will be useful..." pleaded Lu Gian.

Lu Gian's begging echoes in the whole quiet room but the man didn't reply at all. As when he thought that he would be killed for failing his mission the green eyed man spoke.

"I will give you one more chance to repent. Kill the soul fragment's vessel in this world and you shall be forgiven."

Lu Gian felt that he was given one stroke of hope and was delighted that he could redeem himself.

"Thank you, Master. I will do my best to kill that person!!!" said Lu Gian.

"You can leave."

"Yes, Master."

After saying those words Lu Gian left the room. The man's green eyes glints with mockery as he watches Lu Gian leave.

"If you could really kill a man under the protection of the destruction itself then there would be only peace in this world and no death."
