I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot [BL]-Chapter 1733 - 23.52 Second Grey Star - Baiting

After the police had taken their leave, the whole family had gathered at the mansion. They were no longer in the mood to train and chose to have a garden party, eating samgyupsal cooked by the children and the two wardens. While waiting for the meat, vegetables, and others to be cooked, the adults had wine while having a conversation.

The Sovereign God of Void and Darkness asked, "Disappearances of people during the blackout, what do you think caused it?"

"What kind of disappearance do you think? They got their soul, blood, and flesh sucked; only skin remains. However, it was burned as well, leaving no traces of what just happened to them, leaving them cases as missing people," said the world eater, An Shizhe, who just got to those few places.

Yunluan, the Ancient God of Chaos, who had come out with his lover, commented, "This is something a high-ranked Ancient God can blend with humans, making them no different from them. They can also seal the scent of death and rotting with their qi. That's why they are harder to catch than the ordinary resentment ghost of an ancient god."

"Is there no other way to catch them, then?" asked the God of Destruction, Hei Anjing.

The ancient god of chaos said, "They are in need of keeping their vessel fresh. They need to consume souls and fresh blood almost every day to keep themselves sane."

"How come they act like low-class vampires?" commented An Shizhe.

The Sovereign God of Void and Darkness, Ye Xiajie, said, "Maybe that ability is close to mine. The difference is that I go insane if I overuse my ability, while they go insane if they don't feed theirs. That means they chose a target that looks weak with a strong life force."

"No wonder. According to the information I had gathered through hacking, all the missing people are the type with cheerful personalities, outgoing, and full of energy. Should we go for bait then? Shall I do it?" asked the God of Destruction with a playful smile.

All the other adults looked at the smiling Hei Anjing and thought there was no other good bait than him. He is born from Chaos and the world eater; thus, his qi is the most tantalizing there is for the resentment soul of an ancient god. However, why do they somewhat feel bad for the ancient god being targeted by this God of Destruction? No one had escaped from the grasp of this mischievous god once targeted.

However, only one of them was worried. "Jing'er, will you be alright alone?" asked Ye Xiajie.

"Who said they would do it alone? You and I are going to pretend to be children and have a date at the same time; you just have to leave me alone at night to bait him out," said Hei Anjing.

The God of Void and Darkness happily hugged his wife, knowing that he hadn't forgotten about himself for a situation like this. To protect him in his own way, he just needs to hide in his wife's shadow and help capture the resentful soul of the ancient god. When it comes to catching souls, no one else is more expert than he is.

Ye Xiajie said, "Alright. I will accompany you anywhere, Jing'er."

As for the other two parents in front, one of them remained calm while the other looked irritated watching the young couple being sticky to one another. Hunluan was drinking his black coffee while An Shizhe was eating his meat.

The world eater, An Shizhe, commented, "Why does he like to stick to our Jing'er so much?"

"Don't complain. You are no different from Xiajie yourself," said Hunluan.

They enjoyed the rest of the day spending time with their family and ate a lot while spending time in the garden until nighttime, when the children were to go to sleep. As for the plans they made, Warden Yun Ming and the Chief Warden will make the preparations.

After the preparations are made, the whole family decides to go to the next location where the hidden being is possibly hiding. This time, Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie morphed into teenagers looking like young high school students. On the other hand, Hunluan and An Shizhe morphed into a middle-aged same-sex couple looking after their four grandchildren, with two of them being in college and the twins being toddlers.

They split into two groups: one is the pair of Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie, while the other one is a group. If there is someone who will be targeted, it can only be the one with a lesser number. Moreover, Hunluan and An Shizhe intentionally covered the scent of their souls so if the target is observing somewhere, they will not be discovered and look no different from ordinary humans.

After the two groups had split up, the couple headed to the place with fewer people, as if finding a place where they could have more privacy as they went on their date. Moreover, same-sex couples are more secretive about their date. However, this shameless couple, who never cared about the eyes of others, would hold hands and hug each other in the crowd. Adding the fact that they are both good-looking, people couldn't help but look at them, and with their lingering gaze, more and more people stared at them. But the two ignore all these stares and continue on their date.

They look like a sickeningly sweet couple. Hunluan and An Shizhe were trailing them from a distance while the twins were left to their elder brothers and are now playing in the mall, almost anywhere. The two wardens had stayed with the children as an extra precaution, just in case something happened.

The world eater commented, "How come they don't even feel embarrassed acting this way? For some reason, I feel like hitting my disciple."

"Just because your carefully cared-for cabbage is stolen, there is no need to act like that, A'Zhe," said Hunluan.

His lover, An Shizhe, said, "It would be better if our cabbage didn't sell itself to the pig. These two… They won't forget about the plan just because they are enjoying their date, will they?"

"...They shouldn't be." Hunluan's hesitation can be felt through words. But he is truly unsure if those two still remember the mission.

In the end, the more this older couple watches the younger couple, the more they instinctively copy them. In the end, two couples were having so much fun that they forgot their initial goal of baiting to capture people around. The two couples had enough playing and only recalled their plans when people were about to go home.

At exactly late at night, Hei Anjing received a call from his parents asking him to come home. But on the way, they bump into an old couple who got lost on the way, and they just can't leave them alone. As per the plan, Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie are to part ways here.

Hei Anjing said, "But I have to get home before 11…"

"Jing'er, it's dangerous to go home alone at this time. Let me send you home after sending Grandma and Grandpa to the police station. Wait for me here. I will be back as soon as I can," said Ye Xiajie as he escorted the old couple to the police station on the next street.

Hei Anjing was pouting but still decided to wait for his lover. "Alright. I will wait! Return early!"

After his boyfriend left with the old couple, the street Hei Anjing was suddenly turned desolate. At first, he still didn't notice when the people around him were gone, as he was busy chatting with his family that he would be coming home late. By the time Hei Anjing noticed his surroundings, he was already alone in the middle of the dark street and started trembling in fear.

Hei Anjing, with a stuttering voice, said, "W-Why…? W-Where are… the others!? No way! This is too scary! A'Xia! A'Xia, can you hear me? Where are you? Wuwuwu~ Come back. Come back! I'm scared!"

There were two groups who were watching Hei Anjing act like this. One is their target, and the other is the group of Ye Xiajie, A Shizhe, and Hunluan who left just now. Right now, these three have entered the shadow of the God of Destruction, watching the whole scene unfold to them at VIP seats. Of course, they also noticed the presence of those who were observing from a distance. Just based on its cautious nature, it chose to observe more before deciding if Hei Anjing is the right target.

As if knowing this, Hei Anjing showed even more realistic acting. He started shaking as he held his phone, trying to call someone for help. However, as if he had been brought into another dimension, there was no signal in the place.

"Why? Why!? No signal! You're kidding me! I was just chatting with my parents and A'Xia just now?! Wuwuwu~ Where the hell am I?"

The acting of the God of Destruction becomes even more realistic as he walks around without looking where he is going and even trips. The more the ancient God's resentful soul sees this, the better he feels that his prey is about to be caught by him. However, the moment Hei Anjing's blood was spilled, his reaction became uncontrollable, and he finally came out to eat his prey.
