Nether System, Throne Room.
After placing Hei Anjing's Soul under the world tree together with Ye Xiajie's vessel the rest had moved from another area to continue their conversation. They've moved from the central area of the Nether System to the Throne room which Ye Xiajie used as his own office. He sat at the majestic black throne at the center of the room.
His eyes were cold and indifferent as he looked down on the two men who were standing in front of him. Behind his throne are the two quantum beasts, ROI and REINE, after sleeping at the world tree for a few hundreds of years they had longed to achieve a solid vessel. Even if they had detached themselves from the throne they are able to remain in reality as real dragons.
The presence of these two dragons, one pure black and the other is tricolor just intensified the overbearing aura that the Lord God of the Nether System possesses. He might be only a soul at this moment but no one could deny the irrefutable and majestic presence he possesses though he looks more like an Evil God instead of a holy lord.
An Liang sighed and waved his hand. With a single wave a couch for him and his wife to sit on appears. They would be having a serious conversation not to fight but Ye Xiajie is only willing to talk to them in the throne room as this is the only place in the Nether System that is near the central region. Obviously, the man is unwilling to leave his beloved alone. He compromised and this is the result.
Sigh~ "Xiao Ye what we could tell you is limited. We do not know much about what happened or why A'Jing is in that state. All we know is that he left with Ruler God Siwang and Ruler God Mo and brought him somewhere while bringing your body with him.
When the Master brought the two of you back his body had become like that. The God of Judgement says that his body is dead and his soul is gone. All they knew is that A'Jing's soul went somewhere and Ruler God Mo said to wait here as he would return himself.
But when he returned to the Nether System, he had no memories and I had System Yue guide him to find your souls per the order of the God of Punishment. Then who would believe that you two would really meet each other in those worlds? Don't you know how much we had a hard time looking for your soul fragments but as if you're attracted like a magnet to A'Jing you would always meet each other and fall all over again." said Nether God An Liang.
Ye Xiajie glances at his friend and moves his gaze to the one sitting beside him. The wife of his friend and his wife's elder cousin brother, Hei Jue.
"I know that you don't know the details. What I want to know is what happened after Jing'er stayed in the inferno protecting mine and mother's corpses after losing all his subordinates in progress. I've seen you... Arrived with Ruler God Mo. The possessor of my soul core shared some memories of the past with me. What I wanted to know is what happened next." said the Lord God of Nether System.
Hei Jue gave him a cold glance. The bad blood between the two of them is so obvious that even An Liang himself didn't dare to get in between. They are like mortal enemies but the reason for their fight is just one and the same person.
"I do know but... Why the hell should I tell you?" said Hei Jue with a smug expression on his good-looking face. Though his features weren't as top-notch as Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie's. His fox-shaped eyes made him look so sexily and attractive in a seductive way.
As expected the moment Ye Xiajie heard his response his bad mood turned to something murderous. The whole Nether System shook as his overbearing aura spread all over the land. Despite that Hei Jue remains the same as if he is unaffected by the dark and dangerous aura the Evil God is emitting before him.
Hei Jue squinted his fox-shaped eyes, he had a look of scrutiny within those gray orbs. Then he scoffed when he saw what he wanted and said, "Go ahead and destroy your own territory. When this place ends in ruins the one who would suffer after losing your own wife and body would still be you in the end."
Hearing him mention Hei Anjing's wellbeing, the bubbling anger in his chest all popped and slowly faded as the threatening aura in his body was held back. He then looks in the direction where the central region is and observes the sleeping figure of his wife beside his own body. The scene looked serene but it somehow ticked him as that body was nothing but an empty shell yet dared to sleep beside his wife.
The sounds of teeth grinding together were heard in the room. An Liang was stunned to see his self-centered friend retract his aura when he was fully angry just because of his beloved. Before he wouldn't even hesitate to kill anyone who offended him. But Hei Jue is his wife's elder cousin brother, as a son-in-law of the Mo and Hei family, he and Hei Jue are families as well. He wouldn't hurt the family of his wife. Lest he angered his beloved and got kicked out permanently out of their bedroom.
Hei Jue looked serious as he silently thought of something. His husband also noticed that his wife was thinking of something but he felt that it got something to do with his friend, Ye Xiajie.
An Liang stretched his hand and held his wife in comfort, "Sweetheart what's wrong?"
"...I... It's nothing. I am just worried about the Hei Clan being extinct when this ends. After all, more than half had betrayed the clan thanks to Grandfather's greediness. It wasn't enough for him to lose an arm and leg, he still wanted to instigate our Kin to scheme against Jing'er. Why are they so foolish!?" said Hei Jue.
Seeing his wife like this, he knew that he was worried that once the original and whole soul of Ye Xiajie had awakened, the latter would mercilessly uproot the Hei Clan. Though Hei Jue and his branch might be spread there are still some small families in the Hei Clan that didn't get involved with the revolt. But the Lord God of Nether System is not called a Demon King for show. He is ruthless and wouldn't hesitate to cut off someone's lineage completely, making it perish as if it never even existed.
Ye Xiajie overheard their conversation and squinted his eyes.
"I can vow to spare your branch and those who choose to stand by your side if you tell me what I want," said Ye Xiajie.
Though he doesn't have his full memories just based on the reaction of ours his original self seems to be a cruel man. One that does not care about anything other than doing his job as the Lord God of this huge prison.

Hei Jue scowled when he heard this but within his gray irises feelings of hesitation flickers like candlelight. His reluctance is obvious to see but the original strength of this annoying man in front of him is undeniable. His full strength is even above what his baby cousin possesses. This Evil God is after all a former Supreme Being that could rival the Supreme God of Light, Shen Siwang.
Hei Jue bit his lower lips but in the end, agreed to it with a condition. He said, "If you made a vow in Jing'ers's name then I would agree!"
"You! It is okay that you do not believe me but I don't think I would hear you compromise your cousin's name just to negotiate with me?" said Ye Xiajie.
Hei Jue replied, "I do not believe you but... I believe you, whom Jing'er accepted as his other half."
"..."
An Liang response, "Xiao Ye... I think you should agree to what my wife gave as a condition. In this whole realm, there are only four people here who knew what really happened to A'Jing. Two are seniors you can't defeat in your current situation, one is your wife whose mouth you could never pry open, and lastly my wife. Among them, the safest choice is my wife."
Sighed! "I can't believe you will side with someone else after working with me for tons of millennia. Liang, you've changed," said Ye Xiajie to his childhood friend who grew up with him and has been friends with him for a very long time. He had always been a loyal friend but after getting married his priorities had changed.
An Liang gave him a cocky grin and said, "I do not think that you are different from me. Both of us are henpecked husbands who only listen to our wives~"
A rare smile appeared on Ye Xiajie not even denying the words this lousy friend of his just said. It only lasted for a split second before his face turned back to his usual apathetic expression. He then looked coldly at Hei Jue.
"I vow in the name of my wife, Hei Anjing, that I shall spare the part of Hei Clan who never got involved in the rebellion led by the former lord of Hei Clan. If this deity ever breaks it I shall be hated by my wife and would never be forgiven.
This should be enough right?" Ye Xiajie asked.
"....."
The married couple Hei Jue and An Liang nod but the expression of disbelief flashes on their faces. They've never believed that this Cruel Lord God would even compromise with the two of them. They knew how selfish this man before him was.
A frown appeared on Ye Xiajie's face and said, "What? You don't agree anymore? If not I can still retract it."
"No. No. No. This is alright."
"Now tell me what I want to know," said Ye Xiajie.
Hei Jue started telling Ye Xiajie what happened in that far past that had been long forgotten by the others. In this current time, only those who are involved can still clearly remember that tragic ending between Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie.
Hei Jue started, "Everything had started when Jing'er soul stone-broke..."
[A/n: a Soul stone is something with a soul imprint of someone. It would allow one to know the current state of anyone whose imprint was left in the stone. The Soul Stone will glow as if blinking if the owner of the imprint was in danger. It would turn to dust if something dangerous like being fatally injured or dying.]
"At that time we didn't expect that A'Jing would really leave Vearth just to follow you and Anan back to inferno when you suddenly took a vacation. At that time God and the Nether System were both built yet, only foundations were made. The systems at that time were not prisoners doing their serving time. It was a complete machine with its own intelligence yet not human at the same time..."
Hei Jue continued his stories while the other two had no other choice but to listen as they were curious as well.
