The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time

"Hey Mama bug, it's been a while! Papa bug is in great trouble again and needs your help~"

In a certain room, Purple floated in front of a frowning Ren Yuan who was receiving a report from his subordinate, who wasn't able to figure out a certain stubborn and troublesome young man's location.

"Tsk… Whitey's skill of concealing his location is great as always…"

That crazy woman had always mentioned it after losing the young man during their travel time around the Chang Empire.

Ren Yuan rubbed his face in great annoyance after his subordinate left since he was once again reminded of the fact that the young man had the greatest ability to disappear without leaving any evidence behind and giving a fake lead for others to follow.

Among the young man's talents that he had learned about after getting to know him, being able to hide well and skilfully cleaning up any lead was what annoyed him the most.

If… someday, the young man had suddenly chosen to completely disappear, leaving everything behind… would I be able to find him?

Suddenly, Ren Yuan's heart twisted with an unusual amount of panic at the unexpected thought in his mind. And when he placed his hand over his fast-beating heart filled with weird emotions, a flash of confusion appeared in his eyes.

Although he found his situation a bit unusual and strange, it was undoubtedly a fact that he was completely opposed to the mere thought of the young man disappearing from his life.

"No way that will happen. Whitey will not disappear, he and I will travel around the future. We already promised each other, and Whitey would never lie when it comes to his promise. Um, we will not be separated and will grow old until our hair turns white!"

"... Oh? Mama bug, are you finally being aware of your feelings for Papa bug?"

Although I don't know why you suddenly thought that Papa bug will disappear, but I am extremely happy!

When Purple was about to guide his Mama bug to his Papa bug's location, his pair of purple eyes lightened up while a grin appeared on his snout. Even the two purple whiskers on his face swayed in excitement and happiness.

"Come~ I'll take you to Papa bug~ You can use this chance to show how deep your feelings are~ That no matter what happens, no matter what has changed, your feelings will remain the same as the previous life! Maybe Papa bug will finally accept the fact that the two of you will become a couple in this life~"

Hmph, don't think that I don't know the fact that Papa bug is naively thinking about remaining as a special friend to Mama bug! Such a foolish delusion needs to be smacked on the face!

So without waiting for Ren Yuan to dig deeper into his unusual reactions and thoughts, Purple has quickly guided his Mama bug.

And Ren Yuan who was about to have a chance to take a glimpse of his unusual feelings which had slowly appeared and grown, once again his attention was diverted when a familiar feeling suddenly emerged in his heart.

Although he didn't know what it was or how it worked, but, there was no denying that the familiar guidance in certain directions always led him to a certain troublesome young man's location.

And most of the time, it always occurred when the young man was having great trouble or was injured.

"It's probably that… right?"

The same special power that the High Priestess had, Ren Yuan wouldn't be surprised if it was one of the young man's skills. He could still remember the amazing sight of the countless animals taking care of the enemies that had ambushed the oldest son of the Shao Family.

It was also the special day that the young man had revealed his special power, which even the young man's family wasn't aware of.

"... Well, I should have known that Whitey can't get away from me~ He will always need my help in the end~"

Despite the mumbled complaint filled with suppressed glee, the corner of Ren Yuan's lip rose up as he rushed to the direction where the familiar feelings were leading him.

Hmph~ Whitey should start accepting the fact that he can't be left me alone from what he is scheming~

While Purple was flying towards his Papa bug, he didn't forget to seriously observe the expression on his Mama bug's face, which he could see how extremely happy and pleased the man was at the thought of seeing his Papa bug.

Hehe~ Look at that! Mama bug is basically brimming with happiness~ Mama bug has definitely and already fallen to Papa bug!

Now, it's time to let Papa bug have the chance to soak his Mama bug… or maybe, let Mama bug seduce Papa bug to bed since the man's denial, ignorance or stubbornness remained the same as the previous life even though he had already fallen.

As for the physical age of a certain Papa bug, well, Purple had already forgotten it as various scenarios of how to make his Papa and Mama bug together flashed in his mind.

Should I put aphrodisiac in one of the wines that Papa bug made when they drink together with no one else around?

After all, isn't 'cooking the raw rice' the quickest method to get them together?

As for the consequences of such actions, well, Purple believed in the love between his Papa and Mama bug! Just as a certain High Priestess had once spoken, the two of them were 'Fated Lover'!

While a perverted Purple was once again plotting a troublesome situation which would lead to a certain someone's great headache.

In a certain secret large place underneath the Sacred Mountain a long-distance away just outside the Chang Capital, the situation had become more solemn and serious.

"... Little Cai's brother, would you be really alright? I don't have the courage to show my face in front of Little Cai if something bad really happens to you."

As the last thread of connection remained from the curse, Lin Renshu could only feel pain from time to time since the entire curse had been entirely focused on the slender figure surrounded with eerie floating orbs visible to naked eyes.

And as a person with an information network built around the Chang Empire, he also heard about the mysterious people who could use the special aura that contained the nature of the world, which was completely different from internal energy.

Who would have thought that the older brother of Little Cai was one of them? And from the look of it, this young man was quite special for the next High Priestess to have that admiration and awe in her eyes.

This also might be the reason why the two of them got to know each other, while Lin Renshu's mind flashed with various ideas and guesses, leading to certain misunderstandings and away from the real truth.

An extremely pale-faced Jiayi surrounded with glowing talismans at the edge of the clear pool that had been tainted with pink color because of the droplets of blood from the young man showed a confused and complicated expression on her face.

"Honestly, I didn't think that you would easily accept my opinion of letting him come and help us out."

In the clear water of a low depth pool, while surrounded with abnormal floating orbs, Shao Cheng remained sitting in the meditation position with half narrowed eyes as the eerie floating orbs got closer, while the darkened and negative bloody mist around slowly got close to touch his skin.

At the same time, he could tell that the negative emotions filled with overwhelming resentment wanted to penetrate inside him, which was definitely set to affect and damage his own soul.

"I don't want to reveal our association to anyone else… Besides, he already knows about it."

I had already shared about my special power a long time ago. Besides, there is no one else I can trust without worrying about the consequences of revealing it.

"Hm? That's surprising. I assumed that you would also keep this a secret to him."

After all, Jiayi understood that the special purple aura had a hand in the man's soul from arriving in this world.

"Stop always making assumptions."

Shao Cheng calmly answered with his expression remaining indifferent and cold despite the torturing pain that went beyond physical form, as it slowly tried to reach out to his soul.

"Besides… since this might take a few days as you mentioned. Aside from him, there is no one else who can perfectly and quickly help us fulfill the condition from the curse."

Honestly, I don't want to mix him in this kind of situation, after all, it's a world beyond what the man knows.

Shao Cheng could tell that Ren Yuan didn't have deep connections or dealing in the brand new world that he had also started getting into after he died in the previous life.

And yet, Purple just had to make his opinion heard, at the same time, starting to act rebellious the moment Jiayi had requested to let Ren Yuan help them out.

What's the 'Mama bug is so pitiful to be left out!' about?

Even going so far as to threaten to not help out, completely knowing that he won't die from it, only making it harder for him to endure and resist the curse's effect.

Honestly, Shao Cheng once again began to doubt if this purple dragon was really the partner he had made a deal with or was it with Ren Yuan.

Nonetheless, despite accepting the purple dragon's request, Shao Cheng could also feel that deep within him, there was also a hidden desire to make the man intertwine in the new world he was in even if he struggled with various reasons not to do it.

And when Shao Cheng heard the rush of footsteps upon the long hall in the secret door to the large hall underneath the Sacred Mountain, he couldn't deny the feeling of anxiety and excitement inside him.

"Whitey?"

And the moment Shao Cheng saw the man without his disguise appearing in his sight, there was no denying that his heart trembled with various complicated emotions, but the most leading emotion among it was the happiness and warmth that easily filled his heart.

"What do you need me to do?"

Despite the strange and unusual situation, the man didn't ask any questions and had gotten straight to the point.

Especially when Shao Cheng saw the man's pair of charming peach blossom grey eyes flashing with worried emotions along with the fluttering movement of the long eyelashes which were seriously observing his condition.

And Shao Cheng couldn't stop his pale lip stained with slightly dry blood from slowly spreading into a genuinely warm smile, particularly the sapphire pupils brimming with unknown emotion that made Ren Yuan's heart suddenly flutter.

That look… is kind of strange…

However, before Ren Yuan could once again think deeper about it, his attention was completely taken away as soon as he heard the young man's voice.

"It seems that Brother Yuan already knew me."

I'm finally not as innocent and naive in your eyes, right? A scheming person who was always secretly plotting in the dark, at least, you should already know this dark side of me.

From the start, Shao Cheng had always known that Ren Yuan seemed to mistake him as an ignorant, naive and innocent person.

And from time to time, it didn't completely disappear even though he had already done so many bad things.

I am not as clean and untainted as you thought. My hands had already been covered with the blood of countless innocent people… and my heart has always been ruthless, indifferent, and heartless…

If he were to compare the two of them, at least, Ren Yuan had always been more righteous than him regarding what he is doing. Especially when the throne is something the man had always deserved, which he just learned after becoming a spirit.

The ugly words of thief and rebellion that the man would carry in history are undeserving.

In comparison, Shao Cheng had fought for the sake of the younger sister and brother that managed to touch his heart, however, all of it was for his selfishness.

He killed countless people for his wish and desire, destroyed and massacred countless families, he had also caused chaos in the common people for the sake of getting their hearts and support.

Then he put an undeserving person to sit on the throne.

Sometimes, Shao Cheng has the thought that being poisoned to death by the two people he trusted with all his heart was quite deserving.

Weren't there the so-called cause and effect?

Who is right, who is wrong, makes the entire situation to be confusing.

Fortunately, Shao Cheng can always pull himself back whenever those dangerous and self-doubt emerge. Always reminding himself that everything is over and he should focus on the present and to their future.

"Of course, who else knows Whitey other than me?"

Ren Yuan grinned as he calmly stepped closer to the pool that had been stained with the blood of the young man before squatting down at the edge with his grey pupils becoming unfathomable.

"Tsk… Tsk… look at you. So what do you want Brother Yuan to do for you?"

At least, I know that you are a troublesome person, but who made you my special friend? And the one I just figure out that I am unable to bear to let go? 

Hey Whitey, I seem to want you to be part of my life for as long as I could...

"Well, there is some truth to it…"

When Shao Cheng secretly observed the worried and concerned emotions that swiftly flash in the man's pair of grey pupils, his heart beat faster than ever when he found out that it is a genuine one.

Ah… I see...

Even though he didn't want to show his weak, ugliness, and fragile moments to the person he had begun to have emotions for, in the end, it was quite hard to suppress the selfishness and consciousness to get closer to the man's heart.

Ren Yuan… I have started being greedy for your concern… for your attention and even wanting to have a sense of presence in your heart than it normally should...
