Xia Jieya had accompanied Baby Jing until dawn. He watched as Baby Jing played with Zhi Yu and Zhi Yang, whom he made to entertain the baby. Even if the little one was busy playing with his gifts, he would always look back and stare at Xia Jieya as if he was afraid this person would suddenly disappear again.

No one knows how the baby thinks of this but he used his body to lean on Xia Jieye, once he suddenly moved even a bit Baby Jing would turn back to stare at him and blow bubbles again. This repeated more than once in the whole evening, making Xia Jieye laugh. He couldn't stop himself from hugging the cute little creature in his arms.

"Baby, you are so cute~ Hahaha," said Xia Jieye while cuddling at Baby Jing.

Boh~ boooh?

"Yes, yes I'll stop laughing at you. Did you like my gifts Jing'er?" he asked.

Kyaah! Buhp!

"Good then, as long as you like it," said Xia Jieye, no one understood how he could understand Baby Hei Anjing's replies which only sounded like kyaa and bohs.

Baby Hei Anjing is clearly more expressive in front of Xia Jieye than the others. The latter had played with the little one until the baby had gotten tired and fell asleep in the end. Carrying a sleeping Baby Jing in his arm, the God of Void kissed the forehead of Baby Jing affectionately.

"Sweet dreams, Jing'er."

He also didn't forget to place System Zhi Yang beside the baby and said to Zhi Yang,

"Keep yourself invisible unless Jing'er wishes to see you. You can hide in his soul domain but never attempt to harm him," said Xia Jieye.

[As you wished, Creator. I will protect Lord Jing no matter what.]

"Report to me if something happens."

[Yes, Creator!]

Only after letting the two systems say their farewell to each other that the God of Void had left with System Yue.

Like this, the first birthday of the youngest descendant of the Mo Family had passed. The routine of Baby Hei Anjing meeting Xia Jieye at night had resumed but there would always be times when the people in the house see Baby Jing carrying a small ball of the sun so happily as he makes sound while staring in the air.

Everyone in the Mo Family knew that the little sun in their baby's hand is a gift from the God of Void and turned a blind eye to it. As everyone thought of the glowing little sun as a simple toy, only Shen Siwang knew that it would never be that simple.

During one of the midday naps of Baby Jing, Shen Siwang suddenly grabbed System Yue and caught him by surprise. He was in his invisible mode. 

[Impossible. I'm in my invisible mode. How could you grab and find me that easily?]

In the middle of the day, before Baby Jing fell asleep, he was talking to Xia Jieye using System Yang. A holographic screen appeared before Shen Siwang with Xia Jieye's face in it. The God of Void's smile from when talking with Baby Jing had faded in front of Shen Siwang. The two were both cold as they stared at each other.

Shen Siwang was the first one to avert his eyes. He observes and analyzes System Yang's structure and specifications. He was quite amazed by what his brother had made.

"This is not bad. This allows you to see Jingjing while not even within the mansion. But the materials for this are too expensive," said Shen Siwang.

On the other hand, Xia Jieye replies. 

[It's only expensive because I made sure to put non-poisonous or no lethal materials on it but at the same time it was made with something close to unbreakable. I've also placed defensive measures on it for Jing'er. Of course, everything I've used is expensive.]

"Hmm~"

Shen Siwang let go of System Yang and allowed him to float back to his master, which is Baby Jing. He made sure to hide in his Master's soul domain to avoid being caught by Shen Siwang for the second time. The Holographic Screen that only can be seen by those whom System Yang had allowed to was still floating before Shen Siwang.

Shen Siwang spoke, "Xieye, my wife and the Mo Family would like to officially see you. If you come over you would not need to sneak inside the Mansion like a thief."

"No need. I have too many enemies. I don't want Jing'er and his family to get involved with it. Plus, the Ye Gui race I've made had always hated the Mo Clan. I don't want them to know about Jing'er thought they might already know about him," said Xia Jieye

A frown appeared on Shen Siwang's face, "You shouldn't have made that race in the first place."

"I thought so too," said Xia Xieye. "I've already forbidden them from coming to my place. You should as well restrict their entry into this world and be careful especially with that brat called Ye Mo. The resentment he possesses is the strongest within their race."

"I will keep that in mind. So what is your answer? Are you gonna visit the Mo family and show your face or not?" asked Shen Siwang.

Xia Jieye replied, "No not yet. Unless I cleaned up all my enemies then I won't. Anyway, I have a favor to ask you instead."

"Speak. What is it?" said Shen Siwang. 

The God of Void said, "If something happens to me... Can you seal those memories of me in the little one?"

"Are you sure? Even if we could die, we can only revive. Didn't the Origin say that our first death is his last gift? Even if you die once you can enter reincarnation with full memories but only during our first death." said Shen Siwang.

Xia Jieye said, "That's for a normal death. What of it involves the souls?"

Shen Siwang had halted his words when he heard this. He felt that Xia Jieye knew something.

"Do you know something I don't know?" asked Shen Siwang.

Xia Jieye asked, "My soul-bound artifact is missing. I couldn't find it or sense it anywhere. Tell your family to be careful."

"Why are you so careless!? Isn't that the book of life and death of Vearth!? Did you know who took it? Any guesses?" asked Shen Siwang.

Xia Jieye spoke, "I don't know. But I had the feeling it was Ye Mo. The last person who came into the mansion before I renovated it was that bastard." 

"Why don't you take it back as soon as possible!?"

"I can't! Jing'er's name is on the paper we could move. After all, even a newborn baby without merits by birth can only be listed in the white list. If I suddenly confront him and he wrote something in the Book of Life and death, I wouldn't have enough preparation to destroy the artifact and protect Jing'er at the same time. I cannot risk Jing'er life like that!" said Xia Jieye.

Shen Siwang understood what he meant and no longer scolded him for it. 

Xia Jieye said, "Don't tell the Mo family. If they knew the Ye Gui who keeps their eyes on them would definitely know right away. They might use your wife to kill me. Don't stop him by then... That way I can drag them all out of their caves and clean them all at the same time. I will block Jing'er's connection to the Book of life and death. He might end looking otherwise but his life would never be in danger."

"How about me I can....." Shen Siwang's words were instantly cut off before he completed his sentence.

"No need. Have you forgotten that as the Light God it is forbidden for you to get involved in problems with regards to darkness? Anyway, just make preparations just in case something happens to me. Your wife can inherit the title of the God of Life and Death and work with you. As for the God of Darkness... I will make sure it will remain as mine even after rebirth but for a while, you'll lose this title. Don't worry, these are just preparations in case something happens to me," said Xia Jieye.

Shen Siwang spoke, "I will keep your words in mind and also make preparations on my side. As long as Jingjing is safe you would be satisfied right?"

"Yes, that's all I need," said Xia Jieye as he didn't realize that his lips slightly curled up when Hei Anjing was mentioned. It was as if his source of emotions had become that little baby.

At this sight, even Shen Siwang was astonished that he covered his mouth to avoid the latter from seeing his shock. 

"I'm going now," said Xia Jieye as his face returned apathetically and nonchalantly turned off the holographic video call.

Shen Siwang thought of that rare smile from the God of Void. He was thinking of something and didn't detect that someone had been behind him, avoiding the angle where Xia Jieye could see him. Even Shen Siwang didn't notice his presence.

"He was smiling? I'm not seeing things... That Jieye smiled?" mumbled Shen Siwang as his eyes suddenly wandered to the sleeping baby inside the crib who was not even more than one year old.

While thinking of a few things that left the Origin God in dazed, he was startled when he heard his wife's voice behind him.

Mo Baojun, "Hubby dear, it was a lie when you say that you won't even tell me what that man just said right?"

Suddenly hearing his wife's cold tone made Shen Siwang didn't know whether he would turn around to meet his angry wife or just run away. It's been a while since he heard this kind of tone from his wife when speaking with him.

"I... Wifey, how much did you... hear?" asked Shen Siwang as he turned around with careful movements.

He met his wife's cold glare and stiffened for a bit before trying to hug his wife.

Mo Baojun answered, "I've heard enough. It can be said I heard everything. Even at this moment, he doesn't want any help? He even got my little nephew involved. If things unfold as he predicted I wouldn't lighten my attacks on him. If he dies at that time then... He deserves it! Hmp!"

"W-Wifey, if you kill Xieye Jingjing would be sad~"

"Then I will hold back a bit so he wouldn't die fast."

"Doesn't that mean he will still die in the end?"

murmured Shen Siwang as he received a glare and pinch on his waist from his wife and started wiggling as a worm poured with salt but he couldn't even raise his voice as they were inside the baby room.

Hiss~~~

Meanwhile in Inferno.

The Current Clan leaders and the elders of the Ye Gui race had all gathered. The leader had shown some reports about the recent actions their creator had done. This includes the punishment he had bestowed to his son Ye Mo and his son's comments about their creator being interested in that newly born child in the Mo Clan. The people inside the room were all wearing dark and ugly countenances as they were reading the contents of the reports.

The current leader asked, "What do you guys think?"

"Is there something to talk about? Isn't this enough proof!?"

"I can't believe this! This is not real!"

"He is our creator. Our father figure but who would have thought..."

"It seems that Young Lord Ye Mo is telling the truth. We should talk about what we should do next?"

"Is there a way to remove his influence on our race?"

"Are you guys seriously talking about this? This is betrayal!"

"He was the first to make such a move. The Creator is no longer the same as before. We must at least take back our freedom."

"But there is only one way to give our race what we want. But by doing so we would become the enemies of not only the Mo Clan but also Venerable Ruler Shen Siwang and our creator. Are you still going to do it?"

"What's the way?"

"It is simple.. We need to kill the creator with our own hands."
