I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot [BL]-Chapter 1241: 18.79 First Grey Star - Dangers in the Aurora Glaciers.
In the Tower of Gods
After fleeing the Noble Faction-controlled mansion, Second Prince Xingju makes the decision to go back to the tower and meet the being there. Together, they watch the events that transpire in the capital, including the scene in which his father orders the death of his own younger brother, which makes Xingju even more enraged.
After all, if he could kill his own brother, would not that mean that killing Wang Xingmo would be even easier?
Second Prince Xingju commented on such a scene, "He is not human. After forcing the Imperial Uncle to take the throne as he was injured, he could also take it back even by killing his own brother. What a bastard!"
{What are you saying? What he is doing will be something you will be doing in the future as well. That is your destiny~.}
Hmp!
As they watched, they had no idea that they would discover yet another repulsive truth about the Noble Society and the Royal Family: Wang Xingdi, Yi Jun's younger brother, is actually the second son of Heavenly Guardian Yi Kun and the legal wife of the current Queen.
Second Prince Xingju said, "What the hell? They made the Imperial Father wear a green hat all these years? So my only half-sibling is the eldest princess and not Wang Xingdi. Tsk! They deserved to be killed like that!"
{The dramas of the Royal Family are entertaining and interesting no matter what world it is~}
"What do you mean? There are other worlds like this one?" Second Prince Xingju asked.
{There are a lot. But don't dream; you can't reach them. Only those who are either free of greed or those who are initially evil have the possibility to overcome fate and go beyond it. You bear so much hatred and attachment in this world that it will be hard for you to ascend.}
Second Prince Xingju said, "I know only saints or demons can reach it. Mortals can hardly change their destined lives. They can only repeat the cycle of being born and dying in the end."
{It's good that you know. Just focus on what you currently want, and don't forget your promise to me. It will be happening soon.}

Meanwhile, at the Noble Faction's Territory...
When Heavenly Guardian Yi Kun learned that Heavenly Guardian Xian Wu had slain all of the assassins he had brought up, he not only took his Highness, Wang Xingyun, and the prime minister with him, but he also wanted those men to be seized and executed before Wang Xingmo.
Bang! BAM!
He started throwing and destroying things inside the room. One can see the intense anger in Heavenly Guardian Yi Kun's face and actions.
Hah~
"Those damn outsiders! Just when will they stop involving themselves in the problems of the capital? Since you guys are not willing to keep out of this war, let's just get you all involved in it. Someone! Send a letter to the barbarians outside. We are attacking the other big neutral clans.
Target the Gu, Lu, and Mo Clans, respectively!"
"Also send people to the sea; make a connection with Heavenly Guardian Fei for me!" Heavenly Guardian Yi Kun ordered as all the people in the room responded collectively to him.
"Yes, My Lord!"
The barbarians outside of the capital are natural hunters who treat the forests and seas as if they were their home. They hunted without a license; they would even randomly attack small towns and villages; and they were all under the command of the Barbarian King, who just so happens to despise the citizens of the capital.
The Barbarian King imposes restrictions and regulations on hunters when they hunt for ingredients.
The true purpose of these regulations, however, is to maintain the equilibrium of the hunting society by preventing the extinction of a particular ingredient.
These barbarian tribes view the regulations imposed by the royal family as shackles, and they are not executed nor publicly denounced for breaking them; for this reason, they harbor the greatest animosity toward the royal family and the capital.

Wang Xingmo saw these moves clearly, and that evening, as was to be expected, Nameless reappeared in his room and related the events that had taken place in the Yi Clan's home.
"As expected, he was hiding his mount under his house. Even when he burned it, it didn't die. As expected of a Demigod-grade existence, though it cannot be compared to the other mount of the other Heavenly Guardians, it is still strong."
"But to think he had a connection with the Barbarians, he is also the mastermind behind the bandits on our way home that day. He truly had hidden his claws well. He is more evil than that old man of mine whom I killed years ago."
After a short silence, Wang Xingmo once again spoke.
"Nameless, send an anonymous letter to the great clans. For them, a warning letter is enough. Also, send people to wait and hide outside the gates. Tell them not to move until I do so."
When Nameless received his next orders, he got up without saying anything, helped his master put on his clothes, and then vanished back into the room to finish his work. When Nameless left, Wang Xingmo went to his room's veranda and gazed out at the twilight sky and the commotion of the city outside the palace.
Wang Xingmo mumbles, "Yun'er has done his best to be a king. That's why I must clean up the kingdom before returning everything to him. Fu Zin is by his side. He will be alright."
Looking at the black tower from this distance, his eyes grew colder. Nobody knew if he could see someone there, but there was unmistakable anger and hatred in them.
He whispered, "That tower must be destroyed in the end."
Having said these things in a whisper, he turned and left the empty palace behind, leaving only mercenaries and assassins hidden throughout Wang Xingmo's room—people Nameless had left behind to guard his master while he was away—and the knights stationed throughout the building.

Within the Aurora Glaciers...
Ye Jieye was standing outside, staring at the tall glaciers, wanting to go in immediately, but he could not shake the feeling that something strange was crawling all over them. The other disciples were sent to investigate their surroundings. They were divided into small groups of mixed hunters from both the Lu and Mo Clans. Their mission was to scout the area and look for the ingredients nearby.
Mo Xuejing asked, "Is there something wrong, A'Ye?"
"Do you feel anything big and alive hidden in those glaciers, A'Mo?" Ye Jieye asked.
Mo Xuejing nodded his head and said, "I know it. It's the guardian that protects this place. It should be a godly existence like the one in the Milky Way River in the Tornado Mountain Ranges."
"If it's a guardian, does it listen to your grandfather? Why do I feel that it is way too arrogant for it to follow someone? If I accidentally kill it, will your grandfather cry?" Ye Jieye asked nonchalantly as if killing such a big thing could so easily be done by him.
On the other hand, Mo Xuejing was picturing the scene where his husband killed the guardian of the Aurora Glacier and then went back home to tell his grandfather about its demise. He could already picture the elderly man crying uncontrollably.
"Let's... Let's not kill it, A'Ye," Mo Xuejing said.
Ye Jieye said, "No killing is possible, but... to enter that place with too many people and not arouse its attention is not possible. Since I can't kill it, we can only lessen the people's chances of entering the depths of the Aurora with us. It's better if it's only you and me."
"I'm okay with that. We can leave Leica and Lu Shang here to command. Since they can't enter with us, let them do as they wish. For now, we should choose a place to make a camp." Mo Xuejing looked at the thick clouds once again gathering above their heads. "Another round of snowstorms is coming."
"We need to hurry and choose the camp. I found the right place to rest," Ye Jieye said and whistled. He made some gestures towards Lu Shang, who immediately understood his commands.
Lu Shang told the other hunters with them. "Call back all the hunters that went out to scout. We are moving somewhere to camp before the next snowstorm hits!"
"The snowstorms in this place are truly random. It just snowed a few hours ago," Leica said.
Doctor Guang, who was trembling beside the bonfire, said, "That's why I don't want to come here. I don't want to freeze to death!"
Next to him, his twin brother is over the fire grilling some cheese and mallow, and there is a little pot of Leica cream stew for the brave souls who want to drink it.
Doctor Hei said, "Hm~ so delicious! Rainbow Milk Cheese is truly a delight! I can't believe I'm eating it as a snack in this place. Yummy~"
"You gluttony! If you are coming to join this hunt, you should have said so. I won't need to come here if that's the case!" Doctor Guang complained.
Doctor Hei said, "Brother, you should start moving. Look at how fat you have become. You now look like a fat pig in human clothing."
After these words had been spoken, the others warming themselves by the bonfire fell silent for a moment, and then there was the sound of someone sniggering and trying not to laugh too much—that is, not just one person, but a whole group of them.
Pfft!!
Hahahahaha~
In the end, Mo Yuhan and Lu Ming could no longer hold back and laugh out loud, making the others follow their lead and laugh aloud as well.
Stomping in anger, Doctor Guang glares at the two rude brats and says, "Look again! This is not fat! This is proof that I am healthy and eat well!"
"No, that fat is proof of you overeating nourishing dishes without exercising properly for a few weeks, doctor," Ji Yoonjun said.
Su Jin tried to cover Ji Yoonjun's mouth as if trying to stop him from saying other weird words that would anger the doctor.
"No. No. Don't listen to Xiao Ji, Doctor Guang. You are right. That is not fat, but baby fats!" Su Jin said. But he had forgotten that baby fats are still fat.
Doctor Guang turned red in anger and embarrassment all over. His twin brother commented, "Oh, the white piglet turned into a pink one~."
"That's it, you brat! I'm going to fight you to death!" Doctor Guang jumped on his twin brother, Doctor Hei, and they rolled all over the snow as they fought like children. This scene is so familiar that Lu Shang couldn't help but comment.
Lu Shang said, "This twin is like Yuhan and Ming before. The way they roll over the snow is very similar to how those two rolled in the mud in the Tornado Mountain Ranges."
While the others had long since resumed laughing at these people, Lu Ming and Mo Yuhan felt ashamed that their elder brother was telling everyone about their black history and even seemed to have no intention of stopping anytime soon. Suddenly, the people who had gone to call back the scouts had returned, carrying people on their backs who appeared to be fleeing.
"Ahhh! Save us! Save us!"
"Something big is chasing after us! It's so big that the others were eaten!!!"
Everyone was on edge due to the disturbance; even Mo Xuejing and Ye Jieye, who were taking a break, heard this shouting voice. Mo Xuejing felt uneasy because he was staring at the snow-capped peaks where the group had come from, and he thought that something had moved recently.
"RUN! THERE'S AN AVALANCHE!!!"
Then comes the rumbling noises from above, and everyone turns to see the thick white snow sliding down the top of those icy glaciers. They all scurried to get away as quickly as they could, not wanting to be buried by the snow after all.
