Chapter 99 Never Let the People Down

“Leave here quickly...”

Spirit Power charged on the way. When it got closer to Yuan Xueyi, it penetrated through the wall. Obviously, the Master wanted to kill Yuan Xueyi, which startled her greatly. All she could feel was the pain on the chest. It turned out that the Master hated Yuan Xueyi. For a moment, she felt hard to breathe in despair. When Zhu Jiuyin faded away, Yuan Xueyi picked hersefl up. Si Shui was a place to seal souls, so she thought she’d better leave there as soon as possible. She trotted along the way. When passing through the Locking Souls Pillar, she was attracted by a ray of spirit light, so she leaned over the ground to take a look. Unexpectedly, the ray of spirit light dashed into her body, then, Yan Wu lay into Yuan Xueyi’s body, and thought that Yuan Xueyi was just his carrier. When leaving Si Shui, he could enjoy himself leisurely and carefreely. So Yuan Xueyi, along with the parasite, left Si Shui.

Yan Wu was a spiritual beast in Sishui Lake. In order to leave Si Shui, he had to lodge in Yuan Xueyi’s body. As a matter of fact, Yan Wu was just a wisp of essence soul and could perceive things after practicing for 10,000 years. And his perception ability was bestowed by Yuan Xueyi. At that moment, Yan Wu was sad while the person who made Yan Wu sad was named Zhu Jiuyin.

When Zhu Jiuyin returned to the royal court, what heaved in sight were that his people were busy cleaning broken remnant walls, charred bodies were placed in order, and the whole square was heaped with rubble. Ying Yu directed clean-up work. In the face of calamity, his people never left or forsook her. Zhu Jiuyin spread his Spirit Power to lift up all the debris in the ruins. Seeing the Master, the people of the Immense Sea were fueld more energy. Ying Yu even had no time to greet his Master. For anyone of the Immense Sea, the royal court stood for a faith and spirit, serving as a moral support for the people of the Immense Sea.

The royal court had towered in the Immense Sea for tens of thousands of years. Even though it was destroyed by Kunlun, people of the Immense Sea would rebuild it for sure. Zhu Jiuyin condensed his Spirit Power to fill up the foundation of the royal court. Now it was a land of empty and desolation as the eye could see. Prosperity turned to ashes, leaving a scene of devastation. When everything was done, Ying Yu let out a sigh of relief. Seeing the Master look pale, he decided not to bother Zhu Jiuyin. Although the Master lost the royal court, he could feel relieved when he saw his people were so cohesive in the face of catastrophe. Since there were the people like that in the Immense Sea, how could they fear those hypocrites of Kunlun?

Zhu Jiuyin stood on the high platform, looking far in the distance. His hatred to Jiang Wuyou overspread him like magma in the purgatory. His heart which once beated for Jiang Wuyou became stony and frozen. Zhu Jiuyin gathered his Spirit Power and beat his chest. Under the Pangu’s incantation, Nie Xiaowu’s affection for Jiang Wuyou was uprooted.

In the corner, a pair of eyes were staring at him. Yuan Xueyi could tell that the Master did change. Did Zhu Jiuyin love another woman? Yan Wu read Yuan Xueyi’s thought secretly.

“Master, you might as well take a rest!”

Ying Yu stood afar, not knowing how to console his Master, and all he could do was to accompany the Master quietly. Zhu Jiuyin remained still against the wind. The cold was penetrating at night in the Immense Sea. Afraid the Master would get cold, Ying Yu took off his brocade coat and put it on the Master. Not until then did Zhu Jiuyin collected himself. Ying Yu plunked up his shoulders to look more vigorous. However, icing air in the Feburary chilled Ying Yu with shiver. Zhu Jiuyin was suddenly struck with sadness as his nose twitched, and he wrapped them two with the brocade coat. They were brothers who had experienced life and death together since childhood. Even in the most atrocious conditions, they had never seperated. No matter how wretched Ying Yu was, he never forgot Zhu Jiuyin. They were struggled together strenuously and sturdily. Zhu Jiuyin cast a glance at the ruins and then followed Ying Yu, thinking that the Immense Sea would stand and last forever with the support of such brothers and people.

“Master,are you going to sleep in the shabby room with me?”

“Ying Yu’s cottage looks comfortable.”

“It was Feng Xi who helped me to build it.”

“So that’s why. I see.”

There were two thatched rooms with some new beddings prepared. However, Zhu Jiuyin threw them out, which made Ying Yu puzzled.

“Thinking back to those years, you and I even fell to be beggars. Why am I particular about it now?”

Ying Yu felt warmth in his heart. It turned out that the Master was still the Master. Even though he had a different identity, he was still Xiao Jiuzi whom Ying Yu knew.

“Master, you are not sad for the royal court, but the person who burnt the royal court. Right?”

“Ying Yu, is there a person you love?”

“I don’t have such a good luck.”

“Ying Yu, I don’t want to love anyone in my life.”

Zhu Jiuyin let out a long sigh, full of helplessness. Well, since Jiang Wuyou could not be my lover, she was my enemy now. Let me hate you forever. Looking at Zhu Jiuyin, Ying Yu himself also let out sighs. Love was the most afflicting thing in the world, which could kill a person intangibly. Ying Yu felt lucky that he did not fall in love with anyone.

Yuan Xueyi quietly followed Zhu Jiuyin to come to Ying Yu’s house, and felt rather surprised at seeing the house of the Immense Sea’s official. It turned out that Ying Yu was rather poor and shabby. Time passed unconsciouly, and it had been at midnight as Yuan Xueyi was staring at them in the room. The cold was piercing at night in the Immense Sea. When she woke up, she felt chill all over herself. So she walked out of the courtyard and breathed the fresh air. The icing air began melting under the sunshine of February. Ying Yu inside the room looked at Yuan Xueyin with surprise, wondering why she came to his courtyard in such cold days. He knew Yuan Xueyi— the Master’s Ancient Lady. Ying Yu came out of the room. Today, he had more things to do and did not want to disturb the Master’s good dreams. things, and I don’t want to disturb the Master’s dreams. The sun had risen three poles high when Zhu Jiuyin woke up, and he was a bit unhappy about it. But the food on the stone table in the courtyard showed that Ying Yu was so considerate that he did know Zhu Jiuyin’s favor. Then, Zhu Jiuyin sat in front of the stone table, enjoying the delicious food.

Xueyi stared at him secretly on the roof and was rather glad to see Zhu Jiuyin enjoying the food. In fact, Yuan Xueyi had spent a lot of time practicing cooking those delicious dishes and was always eager to serve them to the Master. Now the opportuny finally came. Just within the time of a meal, Yuan Xueyi fell asleep unexpectedly. When she woke up again, Zhu Jiuyin had not been there. Yuan Xueyi patted her chest with some disappointment, but meanwhile, she felt lucky that the Master was not there.

Yuan Xueyi flew down and cleaned up the remnant dishes before leavign the courtyard. Today, the Master was bound to be busy. So Yuan Xueyi would try her best to help him. It was her caprice that brought the crowning calamity and caused destruction of the royal court. So she thought it was acceptable that Zhu Jiuyin hated her. But all she had done was out of love. She had burnt down the house of the Goddess of the Moon because of jealosy, but she did not expect such consequence. When Zhu Jiuyin came to the meeting hall, all the important officials and officers had just arrived there. Ying Yu hastened to submit the memorial to the Master. Zhu Jiuyin cast a glance and put it down. The memorial roughly advised that those palace servants who had die of the calamity should be bestowed lavishly and given death benefits per person so that it could give some comfort to their family members. Sure enough, Zhu Jiuyin agreed on it. Ying Yu submitted the list, and Zhu Jiuyin signed and sealed on it. When it finished and it was time to retreat the court, those important officers and officials did not move. Zhu Jiuyin was rather surprised. Because in normal times, those people had all dispersed quickly, afraid of taking any responsibility. But today, what happened to them? When Ying Yu submitted the list of donations, Zhu Jiuyin felt warmth in his heart as he saw his subjects were willing to donate half of their properties to him. But what he did not know was that the reason why those people were so obedient was that Ying Yu had evidence against them in hand. Obviously, Zhu Jiuyin did not know the story behind. To express gratitude to his subject, Zhu Jiuyin knelt down in the presence of all. No one in the meeting hall had seen it before, so they dropped to their knees one after another. In the beginning, they were forced by Ying Yu to contribute money to the Master, but when seeing the Master gave them such a great salution, they were all moved, showing willingness to their donation, and even lessened their hatred to Ying Yu. What happened at that moment did go beyong Ying Yu’s expectation. And he did not expect that the Master would did in that manner—put down his dignity of an emperor. Ying Yu thought Zhu Jiuyin was really a good ruler since he could kneel down for everyone present there and that it turned out that the Master would devote himself to making the Immense Sea stronger. Having an emperor like him was a blessing both for the Immense Sea and the people there.

The royal court was a spiritual pillar that could not fall. The people of the Immense Sea rebuilt the house and united together. In the face of adversity, all the people shared one mind, which was out of Zhu Jiuyin’s expectation. Looking his subjects and people, Zhu Jiuyin felt more burdens on his shoulders. It was a king’s responsiblity to lead his people to live a prosperous and contented life. Thinking about the vows he had said at the time when he had been chosen to be the family master of the Immense Sea, he made up his mind that he would not let his people down and not change his original intentions for the sake of making the Immense Sea more powerful and having his people free from war.

“Ying Yu, declare to the world that today will be set as a commemoration day to warn all the people in the Immense Sea of the threat from Kunlun.”

When Zhu Jiuyin’s voice rang in the meeting hall, it seethed with cheers. All the people there thought their Master was brilliant, because not only was it good to commemorate what happened today, but also it could help to unite people of the Immense Sea. The meeting concluded with a sea of compliments. Zhu Jiuyin asked Ying Yu to stay. Understanding what his friends had done for him, Zhu Jiuyin was about to bow to him. But Ying Yu did not dare to accept the appreciation, so he hurried up to picked his Master up.

“Feng Xi, why don’t you still come out?”

The moment Ying Yu’s voice fell, Feng Xi flew down from the roof.

“It seems that you two have planned in advance.”

Zhu Jiuyin grinned sincerely. In front of friends, there was no need to cover yourself, because it was friends who gave advice and tided you over when you were in trouble.

“Don’t thank me too early. I just said something. And you should give thanks to Ying Yu.”

Ying Yu felt a little embarrassed, because he considered himself rather thick-headed among them three. But to his surprise, he won the Master’s praises, which made Ying Yu blush.

“Ah Jiu, it is a good thing that the royal court is destroyed.”

“What?” Ying Yu’s mouth formed an O-type with shock. How could Feng Xi make such astonishing remarks? What would the Master think of them? However, Zhu Jiuyin’s tightly knitted eyebrows loosened.

“You’re right. I can see cohesion among my people. I used to think people prioritized profit above all else. But to my surprise, my people did move me.”

“Ah Jiu, you are really an awesome talent and can see the things so incisively. You should seek more happiness for the people of the Immense Sea.”

(The author said: common people used to believe that whether brotherhood or family love would be deteriorated in front of interest. However, there were still some people who were ready to die for their brothers. I had written the characters of Qiongqi and Yingfu resepctively. They were willing to give up everything just for friendship. Perhaps you think they are silly, but they can balm us. In reality, can our friendship withstand the temptation of interest? Can our love withstand the erosion of time?)

“It’s so good to have you with me.” Zhu Jiuyin held his brothers’ hands tightly.

“Master, there are so many things to handle today. I will take your order and deal with them.”

They three came out of the meeting hall and flew in the direction of the royal court. Viewed from afar, the square was black with people.

“Ah Jiu, it is a blessing that you have the people.”

Feng Xi said with emotion. How could a person not be moved by those simple people? Although Zhu Jiuyin was the family master of the Immense Sea, he did little for his people. But his people dug the main hall’s foundation against the bitter coldness, sweat dropping from their black cheeks. They had no money, but were geniune and adorable. They laid the bricks in order with their old callused hands and just smiled straightforward at the sight of their Master. They did not have any schemes but shared a common hope that their Master could have a home as early as possible. At that time, any words were redundant. Zhu Jiuyin jumped into the excavation and carried a blue stone to lay on the foundation. A man holding a spade was at a loss what to do when seeing the Master came to help. Ying Yu followed Feng Xi and jumped into the excavation as well. At that moment, no one cared about status, but cohesion. Zhu Jiuyin laid the stones carefully. He was the King, but was not what he used to be.
