Chapter 18: I'll Do Anything For You.
A person wearing a coat and a hood over his head can be seen standing in an alley in the Capital, just a few distance away from the rest of the population as he look in the far distance.
"... It's a bit different... the Dynasty Fate has change..."
A soft voice echoed out before sighing softly, a gush of wind suddenly blown hard, enough to cause the hood on his head to be move back to show the appearance of the person wearing a coat, it was a delicate adult face with a red mark under his lower lip, basically telling that the person currently has his body covered in a coat was a fair person.
"Since it has change... then I'm finally allowed to interfere..."
Purple eyes look in the distance in nostalgia and longing with a bit of relief before covering his head as he walk in a certain place.
.
A slender figure of a man walk out in a room, the smell of medicine on his body was so strong that even a person can smell from a far distance.
"Grandson, how is his Highness?"
An old man figure immediately ask after the man have gotten closer, though the voice containing a bit of wariness as the old man eyed his grandson warily, because despite how harmless looking the young man was currently portraying himself at, he could tell how dangerous the young man currently is.
Jun Wei has live a long life and has seen different people in his entire life, but never before has someone given him a rather dangerous feeling that his entire being was screaming him to be wary and to ran far away from the young man before him.
He has led an army before, has experience a bitter battle filled with bloodshed and ruthlessness, he was a battle harden man, but the atmosphere that his grandson is barely keeping hidden was enough to make his face pale and his body shake, as his instinct keep screaming at him to get out right this instance and hide far away this person.
"... Everything alright, nothing bad will happen to him."
Jun Lin Chen handsome face showed a smiled, his voice filled with certainly, but anyone who was paying great attention toward him can tell that the smile doesn't reach his eyes at all.
The young man eyes was so dark, that no emotion can be seen within, it was like a dark deep abyss.
"More importantly grandfather... you saw the letter from little Xen right?"
Jun Wei grandson might scared him, that aura around him was extraordinary, but remembering the vow he made to the Emperor on his young time, that person was not only the Emperor he greatly respected, he was also a dear friend of his, a ruthlessness suddenly flash on the old man eyes as he stare at his current grandson before him.
Remembering what the Young Emperor has told him a while back, Jun Wei couldn't help but nod his head in approval, very good, there is finally a person that can continue what he wanted to protect the most in his entire life.
The Royal family of Rong Dynasty, the carrier of the bloodline of the Royal family was the most important one that he, Jun Wei, has wanted to protect the most his entire life and not even his Jun Family can get away from hurting and going against the one that Jun Wei treasure the most.
"I made a vow... anyone who goes against the Royal bloodline of Rong is an enemy of I, Jun Wei. Even if it was my Family, the Jun, couldn't escape from it."
"Good."
Don't blame him for what he was about to do.
Anyone who cause any harm to his little Xen has to face the consequences, madness and craziness, began to brim on his dark ink eyes for a split second before it turned calm.
Turning around at the quiet Young Emperor for a while now, Li Chen can feel the same darkness brimming inside the Young Emperor, specially the red eyes of his that is currently filled with determination and decisiveness, someone the Young Emperor age should not have but at the same time someone in his current position should have.
An Emperor, any age or form, should not be weak willed and kind toward their enemies.
Nodding his head, this is the person that little Xen has tried to protect with everything he have, it showed that Rong Nie was all worth the pain and hardship that little Xen has experiences, there was nothing that Li Chen can do but watch over the Young Emperor since from the look of it, Rong Nie doesn't need him to handle the rest of problem for now.
Besides, he promise his little Xen that he will protect everything that he hold dear.
"... After this, I'll have to go somewhere. I... trust that you can handle the rest?"
The Young Emperor vision move away from the room that he has been staring at, the red eyes turned to stare at the scroll that his hand has been gripping tightly for a while now, before turning his attention to the Young Jun before him, understanding and great determination brimming on his young face while his entire being emitting a cold chill as a flash of ruthlessness appear on his red eyes.
"We will take care of the rest. We... no... I'll leave Imperial Uncle in your care."
Staring at the decisive Young Emperor, Li Chen nod his head, glancing at his grandfather who nod his head toward him in acceptance, he turned and disappear in the two people vision.
.
"You have no right to do this to me! I have not done anything wrong! Father! Mother! Uncle! Grandmother! Help me! Stop him!"
A young man voice scream, as he find himself being held by two person in a black clothes, eyes filled with jealousy and hatred staring at the slender figure wearing a white robes with green bamboo sewn at the edge standing before him.
"Chen what are you doing? Let go of your young brother now!" a middle age man took a step forward, wanting to help his youngest son but was stop by another group of people in black clothes from getting any closer.
A beautiful middle age lady, couldn't help but hold the middle age man with a pale face, as she look in tears on her youngest son.
"... Big brother?" a young lady, 14 years old asked the man in white robes in confusion while taking a hold of the middle age woman robe, it was Autumn, the person that has been with Li Chen when he has been missing.
Autumn, just silently watch, knowing how dangerous the current Li Chen is, before she gently pacified the young lady near her, this person was also the daughter of the master that she greatly admired her whole life, Jun Li Chen and Jun An are the only remaining remembrance that her lady has left in this life.
She'll protect the two of them as best as she could.
The older lady, wife of Jun Wei, can only quietly close her eyes in pain, knowing that there was nothing she can do, feeling sad about what her grandson would become because she knows that Jun Chen can do what he was doing now because he got the approval of her husband.
And if there is something that can make her husband move and started punishing the Jun family for, it means that Jun Hao has done something entirely unforgivable.
So, she can only close her eyes, waiting for everything to be done since she has long known the person she married, that person might have married her, but she has long known that she will only get his respect and never his love.
A person figure flash in her mind, Jun Wei already has someone that he love and she knew about it and has long accepted it.
She just wanted a peaceful life and nothing else, that has been what she wanted when she married in the Jun Family.
So she stayed quiet and never interfere with anything.
Li Chen doesn't have the time to quarrel with the so called family of his at the moment, every second that he was wasting is already making him go crazy since he has to cure his little Xen real fast.
His hand reaching over his inner robe before taking out an item, showing it to everyone in the current room.
"Understand what's this is? Since it is in my current hand, its mean that I have all the power over the Jun Family. From this moment on, I am the head of the Jun Family."
In the young man hand was a token, with a luster of black color, along with a written word in the color of white of Jun in the middle on it. The token might look simple enough, but it was the item that allowed whoever has it to take a hold of all the power of the Jun Family.
"Impossible!" the young man screamed, eyes filled with disbelief, his grandfather can't be that eccentric!
Then everything he has done before was all meaningless from the start?
Jun Hao won't allow it!
"Uncle! Uncle! There's no way you'll accept this right? You're the head of the family!"
The other middle age man, could only look at his nephew in silent, before nodding his head in acceptance over his other nephew, black eyes brimming in complex emotion before closing his eyes, ignoring the currently screaming nephew of his, along with the disbelief voice of his second brother.
There was no way that the person that his father has chosen could be such a simple person. Besides, Jun Shen has long known that he doesn't have the talent to lead the Jun Family, and it was that understanding and lack of ambition over the power that his father has chosen him as the heir and not the second brother.
He has long known that he wasn't the real person with power, until the one chosen by his father appeared.
Its just never went into his mind that the person that has been missing for years, was the one that can finally get the acceptance of his father, enough that Jun Wei didn't even hesitate to give the power over this nephew of his despite meeting in just a few days.
Even he can tell how dangerous the young man before them truly is, Jun Shen can only sigh as his second brother continue to persuade and stop his eldest son from harming his younger brother.
Everything is decided, even what the fate of his nephew in the hand of his second brother eldest son, Jun Wen was unable to just see it, and Jun Shen can only stay quietly, like he always done and follow along.
"Lets finish this quickly, I have some far more important thing to do."
Dark ink eyes flashing in chill as he stare at this half younger brother of his, before ignoring the father of this body that he was using, basically he just felt indifference to this Jun Family, if it wasn't helpful enough, Li Chen would have never even appeared.
Anyone other than his little Xen and what he cared most was the most important thing and nothing else can get his attention.
"... You can't do this! That's your younger brother!" the beautiful image of a mature woman in tears, a motherly love showing on her face, making people take a pity.
Li Chen just thrown the evidence before them, not even giving any sight to the crying woman.
Jun Hao and the middle age woman face paling at the sight of the evidence before them, while Jun Wen eyes widened in disbelief.
"For betraying the Regent King and the Emperor, colliding with the enemies to cause them harm while harming the Jun Family at the same time. You are hereby get the punishment you deserve. Anyone who tried to help them in anyway, will be punish along them."
Ignoring the plead of mercy and cry of misunderstanding of the two person, shooting the pale Jun Wen a warning, it was the least he could do for this father body, nodding his head on his Uncle Jun Shen, leaving the rest to him, before turning around and leaving the place.
The situation of his little Xen is far more important than this, it just too bad that he has left two people in the hand of his subordinate to punish since he wanted to do it by his hand.
If they still have little life in them when he was done, then he doesn't mind doing the rest later on.
Anyone who harm his little Xen can't get away, they have to die in a painful way.
.
Li Chen wearing a black robe with purple lining on it was currently standing silently in a rooftop as he stare at another magnificent residence before him. There was only one place that he could think of that can immediately save Xen in just three days.
There might be other places that he could find to help cure Xen poison but it will take too long and he only has 3 days to at least lessen Xen cold poison and from the hint that he received from his Black system, this Bai Family has the solution.
In any Dynasty, there is always a family that has always been proficient in medicine, and the Bai family was the most famous of all in the Rong Dynasty, one of the oldest and prestige family along side the Wang and Jun.
And despite having the greatest medical family in the Rong Dynasty, his little Xen has still hidden that he was poison and has never really found any cure from it.
There is only two reason that came on Li Chen mind, either that family doesn't have the cure or that family was suspicious enough that Xen could truly not trust it for them to cure his cold Poison as they might have a hand over it.
"Black, handle the rest."
Black system answered back, "Yes! Host don't worry, no one else will be able to sense you, even the defensive rune in the residence will not be able to sense your presence! You can bypass any rune spell that was set up in the entire residence easily!"
It was finally upgraded after all, Black is so happy.
Li Chen just glance at the silly system of his before spreading his spiritual sense around the place, before finally finding the right place he wanted to go.
A few second later, Li Chen figure speed up and has entered the Bai family residence, and as soon as he disappeared inside, an invisible layer entirely covered the entire residence of the Bai Family entirely hiding what was about to happen to everyone view.
.
"You..." an old man voice tremble as he stare at the delicate adult face of the person before him, familiar purple eyes in his memories.
"... hey Bai Fang, you grown so old."
Purple eyes smile as he stare at his friend, it has been years since the last time he saw him.
Bai Fang, snort after getting a hold of himself, "Quiet! Gone for so many years, and you are still the same as ever you old man. Even the appearance didn't change much!"
Both of them smiled, eyes joyful as seeing each other again, before Bai Fang become quiet, he was happy to see his old friend again after many years but knowing that his sudden appearance didn't bode well, so he asked with a trepidation as he remember the last words spoken toward him before his friend disappeared which has became true and cause him nothing but regrets.
"So Yun... why did you appear again?"
What did you see? was what he wanted to really asked but knowing that Yun was unable to really tell what he sees most of the time.
A flash of sentences emerge in his mind, the voice of Yun echoing out in his distant memory.
Hey Fang... I'm leaving... Its scary... that future... I want to stop it but I can't do anything about it... rather than seeing it become a reality... I rather leave this place... you guys... take care...
Yun delicate face become sullen, as the memory of the vision he saw flash on his mind, causing his face to pale, purple eyes flashing in panic and fear.
He hated the ability that he was born with, why let him see the supposed future when he was unable to even stop it?
Yes, Yun has been able to see a glimpse of certain future from his young age, some vision he could speak to others but some was unable to.
It has given him nothing but grief, seeing a future that could happen wasn't as nice at it sound, specially when he saw with his own eyes about the fact that he wasn't meant to be with the person he love.
That the person he loves the most will never reciprocate the love that he has for him.
It hard, seeing as he wasn't the one that was meant to be with the person he love and that there was nothing he could do about it.
He hated the ability to see a glimpse of the future, hated the fact that he was unable to change any of it, unable to tell the people about it most of the time, and can only be keep hidden within him, it was a price he has to pay for having the ability to see the future, the one that can really happen in their reality.
But now, its different, somehow he was able to interfere, even if it was only a little bit, but he was finally allowed to and it was because the impossible has happened, the two people that should not supposed to meet, has met in this world.
Everything has change from what he has saw, and as purple eyes turn to the figure of his old friend, this time he could save him, unlike in the future where the Bai Family has disappeared when the Royal family died out.
But then purple eyes glowed and turned in a daze, as he caught a glimpse of another future, and it cost his face to pale rapidly.
"Yun..?" Bai Fang asked in confusion and trepidation when he saw his friend purple eyes glowed, a sign of seeing a possible future at the moment but this time it was much shorter as Yun got his focus back much faster than what he remember, opening his mouth, he couldn't help but widened his eyes when everything happen so fast before his very eyes.
Fang friend has somehow quickly run before him, mystic art spell being cast as a defensive around them, but somehow it was helpless as the figure that has suddenly appeared before them easily by pass it, the defensive mystic art spell was so vulnerable that Fang can only stare in silent horror at the currently scene before him.
The delicate body of the man was currently raised high up before the stranger that has appeared, his hand tightly grasping around the fragile neck of his old friend.
Everything happened so fast that Bai Fang was unable to react at all, and can only watch as his friend tried to speak weakly, while coughing at the same time from the tight grip of the young man around his neck.
"C..hen! Argh!"
Li Chen who heard his name spoken from the person on his hand, couldn't help but tilt his head up as he stare with no emotion on his dark eyes at the delicate fair person suffocating on his hand.
Bai Fan eyes was finally able to see the face of the strange man that has appeared, and finding the person was just a young man, but the dangerous feeling that the man was emitting was the only thing that was causing him to act in cautions, specially when he remember that he just appeared in the most secluded and most safest and guarded place in the Bai residence.
That was enough fact to tell that the young man was not only dangerous but powerful as well.
"You..."
Li Chen glance at the old man before him, before turning his attention to the person on his hand, as for showing his entire face without wearing any mask?
It was quite simple really, he was only here for one thing, and if these people goes against him and make it difficult, Li Chen doesn't have enough patient to deal with anything at the moment, his priority has always been to cure his little Xen that was currently still hurting on this moment on as fast as he could.
Nothing else matter, if he has to threaten and massacre an entire family then he doesn't mind doing it.
It was just that simple.
So letting go of the strange person that know who he was, despite just planning to come in this place a while ago with a bit of curiosity since he has never even met this person, even the original owner of this body has never met him.
"... Please... give mercy... we will give you the item that you wanted."
Dark emotionless eyes stare at the man pleading purple eyes, Bai Fang frowned and wanted to open his mouth to question his friend only to shut up when frightful purple eyes shoot his way, panic and terror emitting on his entire body.
Bai Fang face paled, as he stare at the young man in horror, to make his friend react this way, then there is just one thing that he could tell, that this man was someone that could do unimaginable horrible thing to make his friend like this.
Before a thought has cross his mind, that make his body shudder in fright, because that young man target from the start was him and not his friend.
"You... know what I wanted?" cold voice echoed out in the silent room as Li Chen asked the person before him.
"... Yes! Yes! I can sometimes glimpse of the future. It was the reason why I was able to block you from getting to my friend! A moment ago, I just saw you threatening Bai Fang in my vision! You wanted an item!"
Li Chen just stare silently at the terrified delicate fair before him, before a cold smile grace his handsome face.
"I bet that friends of yours, didn't accept my proposal huh?"
Immediately, a vision of what Yun has saw flash on his mind, broken bodies of everyone laying all around the place, male, female, young child and elderly, everyone was dead, it was nothing but a slaughtered in a cold blooded way.
The delicate face quickly turned white as sheet, and looking like it might throw up a second later, only to get a great hold of himself.
"I see." was the simple sentence that Li Chen spoke, knowing that this person before him, has really the ability to see a glimpse of the future.
In this world, an ability to glimpse of a future was not rare, unusual but not really impossible, and as Black has prompt on his mind that this person really has that ability can make him believe.
Then, should he just slaughtered everyone since that old man seemed to has refused to give the item that he wanted, his hand twitch a bit.
"Bai Fang will give you the millennium white lotus flower!"
Yun stare at the person before him in fear, like he was seeing a monster, as he instinctively caught on about what the man was about to do.
This person was a real monster, how can a person like this exist?
How can the world rule bless this kind of person???
"What? Yun what are...?"
"Stubborn Old man stop it! Do you want the Bai family to be slaughtered and to disappear entirely in the Rong Dynasty???"
Yun yelled in panic, purple eyes flashing in dreadfulness, the words of his old friend and his reaction was enough to cause Bai Fang to choke the rest of his words, eyes widening in terror at the young man before them, because everything that Yun can see was the greatest probability of an event happening in the future.
And the Bai family being slaughtered and disappearing can really happen in this young man hands.
Rather than keeping the treasured item that his Bai Family has been guarding from generation and generation, keeping the Bai Family safe are far more important than any item.
A few moments later, leaving the two shivering person in the room, an old man and a fair person, Li Chen finally got the item he wanted and left the place entirely.
As soon as he left the Bai residence, the invisible layer covering the entire Bai residence disappeared as soon as he was gone.
Yun could only tremble in fear with cold sweat as soon as the young man left, that was the person that the world rule has bless and the one that can change the fate of the future that he saw.
Li Chen standing on top of a rooftop, the moonlight shining on his slender figure as beautiful snow white lotus flower was place over his hand.
As for the two person he just left, Li Chen doesn't need to give them any warning, their reaction alone was enough proof that he doesn't have to do anything at all, he was sure that those two know on what not to do and what not to tell.
The handsome face of the man, smiled gently, eyes brimming in madness as he stare at the millennium white lotus on his hand.
"Little Xen, wait a bit more. I'll be coming and cure you soon."
