[BOOK 2] I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot (BL)

9.20 Second Blue Star - Lord Hei?

Carrying Xue Yan on his back, Fox God Hu Yue left the Village clean up to his servants and Ou Ya. As he said it only took him one hour to arrive in front of the Ghost King's Territory. Before them is a huge ancient mansion that used to look old and barren but now before they are still the same mansion with a slightly modern touch. The former walls with cracks due to age were replaced with a newly painted wall.

The dead trees around the house were all replaced with new ones, there are bushes of full-bloomed black roses outside the mansion climbing on the house walls giving an aesthetic feeling of nature. Though the huge trees gave the land more shaded regions as the owner of the place is the Ghost King who hates the sun. Seeing the modern palace before them Xue Yan and the Fox God was stunned.

Stunned Fox God, "W-What the hell happened here?!" asked Hu Yue in surprise.

The gates suddenly opened and the two were welcomed by Ghost servants wearing butler and maid attire. Though these servants used to wear eunuch robes and palace maid clothes.

Servants with their heads lowered, "Welcome. Fox God and Sire Xue Yan. The Master and the Lord Consort have been waiting for your arrival."

Xue Yan asked, "Excuse me. Is this the Ghost King Palace? Why does it look so... modern?"

"Answering to Sire Xue, this is indeed the Ghost King Palace. But since the Lord Consort is a modern person, the master had renovated the whole place with a modern touch." Answered politely by the servant wearing a butler suit. "Please follow me. I shall escort the guests to the Water Pavilion where the master and the lord consort rest."

Xue Yan and Hu Yue followed the servants inside the palace. They were brought to a pavilion surrounded by a huge pond. There are full bloom plum blossom trees in the area while at the center is an open pavilion. Once they were near the pavilion they heard a mellow voice. It's the heavenly voice of a man singing a tune of a song they haven't heard before. It seems to be an original ancient song.

Everyone who heard the song fell in a trance as if hearing angels singing. The servants seem to be used to it as they still properly lead the two guests to an area of the pavilion, at the center of the place they saw figures of two handsome men in modern clothes. A young man with short white hair with red highlights sat on a fur carpet laid under him. He had phoenix-shaped eyes and crimson irises which showed tenderness as he looked at the sleeping man whose headrest was on his lap. The sleeping man had his eyes closed as he held his lover's hand into his, laid on top of his chest. His slumbering figure looks serene. As his captivating features were barely laid under the beautiful man's tender gaze. It seems that he is enjoying his lover's singing. The servants only escorted the two by a certain distance and instantly lowered their heads standing by the side waiting for further orders from their masters.

Servant butler, "We can only escort you until here. Please go ahead and enter, esteemed guests."

Xue Yan said, "Thank you." Before walking forward to approach his younger brother by the distance. Fox God hesitated for it before following Xue Yan inside the pavilion to where the couple was.

The Ghost King felt their presence the moment they entered his palace but kept a mild reaction as the two guests were the ones they had been waiting for. One is his foolish Fox God subordinate and the other is his wife's elder brother. Xue Hua stopped singing when he saw his elder brother approaching with a fox masked man following behind him. Hovering around him is a glowing moon, this is clearly System Yue who is only visible to a few people.

[Host! They are here. The elder brother of your vessel, Xue Yan, and the Lord's subordinate, the Fox God, Hu Yue.]

Xue Hua spoke with his system through his mind, "Yue, are these two the usual pair?"
