Bloody Emperor 23 See You

Nero thought that the experiences he had with humans on Earth had made him see things in a very closed way. Perhaps the issue was not 'humans are always predictable,' but 'anyone' can be different. Dai Jingyi was a perfect example. Even in a family of bad people, she was very decent and was willing to sacrifice herself for them.

Nero knew that things were not so simple, and Dai Jingyi was willing to do a lot for her family, but that does not mean that she was a good person, or she would not hate non-humans as all humans usually do. But he was interested in seeing what kind of person she would become in the future. Maybe they might even be friends one day.

Dai Jingyi was still trying desperately to stand. She said Nero though she was interesting because he heard everything she said even though he didn't have to do that. But now she was apprehensive that it wouldn't work.

"Will you really accept it?" Dai Jingyi did not believe that Nero would spare them, but when she heard him confirm her idea, she cannot help but hope. She was still terrified, so she opened just one eye to see Nero looking at her with a smile that looked amused but no longer evil.

"It's not because I think a brat like you is interesting, but just because it's a good plan. You see, I have no way to have a lot of fun torturing Dai Zhi now, so having the opportunity to torture you who will last much longer in the future will be good." Nero couldn't help thinking that the situation was funny.

"Demon!!!" Dai Jingyi thought more and more that Nero was really a demon disguised as a human. And those red eyes were proof of that. Even though she never saw or heard of someone who saw a demon.

"I know that you are not the type of person who would be standing very much in the same place. Someone so talented would take to the skies, so when I get stronger, I will seek you out to receive my punishment."

"But you have to leave my family in peace because they have already suffered a lot and paid for the mistakes they made." Dai Zhi was now really happy because Nero seemed to have accepted the offer. It is not every day that she survives what could be the end of her family.

"Yes, fine. I just want you to keep your word of looking for me in the future; otherwise, I will have to come back for you, and I don't think you will want it, right?" Nero just wanted to taunt the little girl more to see her expressions that amused him a lot.

"You don't have to worry. I'll find you!" Dai Jingyi knew that he said a lot just to tease her. But in this situation where he just brutally killed so many people, she couldn't help feeling intimidated and scared.

"Well, then I have to go, and you have a lot of cleaning to do." Nero was already getting bored because he couldn't get much more from the little girl who was almost pa.s.sing out from shaking, so he thought it was time to go.

"Wait! There's one more thing." Dai Jingyi knew that it had already been a miracle for her to stop this demon from killing, but if she didn't solve everything this time, she didn't know if she could solve it later. Even though it was ridiculous for her to stop him from leaving, she had no other option.

"You are a very demanding little girl." Nero couldn't help but make a face, just to keep frightening her.

"You can call me by my name, Dai Jingyi. I have to ask you not to let the Xun Family destroy us. Now that you have killed most of my family's strength, we are very vulnerable, so they will surely come for us." Dai Jingyi understood more and more how Nero thought, so she was a little more comfortable asking for some terms.

"It's fair. I will talk to them to not interfere with you, your father, and your sister. But on other matters, I cannot promise anything. They are not dogs that I can command as I please." Nero spoke while shrugging his shoulders as city affairs had nothing to do with the situation. Not for him, but it was undoubtedly impacting Dai Jingyi.

"Understand that we are no longer one of the strongest families in the city, and if they still attack us, how am I going to get strong quickly to go look for you?" Dai Jingyi tried to argue in every way because her family needed any help now that they were so bad.

"It's all right! I make it very clear that your family cannot be touched! Is that okay, or do you want something else, Miss Dai Jingyi?" Nero was getting annoyed that everything Dai Jingyi said made a lot of sense, and he was starting to think that killing her and her family should be the right choice.

"It's all right! That was all I needed. Thank you for understanding." Dai Jingyi started to move her hands in a disorderly manner when she became nervous, thinking that Nero might be upset with her and change his mind.

"So we're agreed. It won't be long before I leave town with Xiong Zhelan, so in the future, you should have an idea of where to look for me. See you, little girl." Nero did not wait for Dai Jingyi to respond and jumped through the broken window and disappeared into the darkness.

"Unfortunately, see you, Demon!" Dai Jingyi can't help but breathe a sigh of relief that things have not ended in the worst way. But still, this was by far the worst day of her life. For now, because she made a pact with the devil to suffer in the future so she didn't know how 'bad' it would be when such a day comes.

"Boo-hooooo! I'm just a little girl, so why the h.e.l.l do I have to go through a situation like that? Waaaaah!" Dai Jingyi collapsed on the ground, weeping rivers of tears. She held on for a long time holding her emotions, so she thought it was okay to release now.

"This is all your fault! It is good that you lament and change the way you do things." Dai Jingyi looked furiously at her sister, who was in a sorry state but was unharmed. She was mad at Dai Zhi for all of this, but she was also very angry with Nero and would dream every day of paying him in kind one day.

"I don't know how things ended up like this, but I'm glad you didn't kill her," Sarah commented on Nero's mind after he left the Dai Family's mansion and headed for the Xun Family's home.

"Why?" Nero was a little confused by Sarah's comment.

"It shows that you are letting go of your hate for humans and thinking more clearly." Sarah understands well about hate because she also lost her family. After spending two years watching Nero kill all the humans on the Earth, she thought he should have already discharged, but the pain they share cannot be forgotten.

But things could get better. Humans on earth thought one way. Most that they have found here so far also think so, but that does not mean that all humans hate non-humans.

Sarah wanted Nero to be able to think of humans as people and not bags of blood. But she understood that it would not be easy but a slow and time-consuming process of learning.

She was happy that he met someone like Dai Jingyi, and that was the first step not to get rid of the pain of losing his family but to at least heal the wound that was still open.

"Perhaps you are right. I spent a lot of time killing. Then something broke inside me. I hope you can stop me when I'm going too far." Nero liked the fact that Sarah supported him in everything, but he knew he didn't clearly think when it came to humans, so it was better for everyone if Sarah could stop him sometimes.

"I wouldn't have let you kill that girl. But you stopped yourself, so it's okay. I want the best for you, and it won't always be just killing." Sarah spoke in a loving tone that made Nero very comfortable.

So Nero continued walking on the deserted streets of the small town of Abun. The night was very calm, and Nero walked slowly while talking about random things with his spirit-wife until he arrived at the Xun Family's house.

"He's back!" Everyone in the house could hear Xun Lan's scream when she saw Nero coming. She was watching from the window since he left and now that she saw a person all in black with gold ornaments coming she knew it was Nero.

"Silly, sister." Xun Lan bowed her head in shame when Xun Feng commented on her being silly, and everyone started laughing.

"It's okay to fall in love. Don't pay attention to them, my daughter." Xun He approached his daughter and gave her some loving advice. But only after he managed to stop laughing.

"Mhm." Xun Lan could only make low sounds of agreement with her father's advice and pats as she was very ashamed of that situation. When Nero entered the living room, she pressed her face to her father's chest and did not look at Nero. She was like an immature little girl, and Xun He liked to pamper his daughter.

"So, how was it?" When Nero entered through one door, Xiong Zhelan came through the other and asked what everyone wanted to know.

"The Dai Family has lost almost all its strength. I killed many, but in the end, I didn't want to kill Dai Dong and his daughters. I have plans for Dai Jingyi so no one can touch her even when I'm gone."

Nero went straight to the point making many people confused. They didn't even need to ask because their faces showed that he would have to explain the story in detail.

Nero did not say exactly how things happened but the most relevant parts. Xun He promises that he wouldn't hurt Dai Family when he took the leading position in the city. He also said he would keep an eye on the Dai sisters so that no harm could happen to them.

"Did you fall in love with Dai Jingyi? I know she is stunning, but she is still a child, and she doesn't even have b.r.e.a.s.t.s." Xun Lan did not miss another opportunity for people to laugh at her.

"I'm not a pedophile! I just didn't want to kill children. So I kind of regretted going so far, and now I want them not to suffer too much. It's not that hard to understand, right?" Nero didn't know how to explain that he was interested in seeing what Dai Jingyi would be like in the future, so he said random things.

"Are you jealous of a little girl?" Xun Feng would not miss the chance to make fun of his sister, who ran after him throwing weak punches.

"Has there been any change in Marie's situation?" Nero got serious and asked Xun He.

"She is healing very quickly with the healer's treatment. But it will take weeks for her to completely recover because her cultivation is much bigger than mine, and she was seriously injured, so it will be long until she stays as she was before." Who answered was not Xun He but Xiong Zhelan, who took a good look at Marie to report to Nero.

"I am glad that she is recovering. You must take good care of her, Xun He, because if anything happens to her, you know what will happen to you, right?" Nero made his point very clear. Xun He understood that he would have to give his life if needed to protect Marie.

"Now that this question is over let's talk about going to the Black Sword Sect." Xiong Zhelan talked about leaving the city as it made no sense to stay here any longer since Marie would take a long time to recover, and Nero had no reason to stay.

"Okay, let's set up the journey details. Tell me everything essential." So Nero sat in a chair by the fireplace next to Xiong Zhelan.

"As I said before, you will not be my disciple because I believe my sister will be a better teacher for you." Xiong Zhelan started telling things about the Black Sword Sect and the journey to get there.

While Nero and Xiong Zhelan talked, everyone went back to their duties. Xun He went to deal with politics and move his people to become the main family in the city.

Zhu Tai and Xun Feng were talking on the other side of the room. But Xun Lan was sitting in a chair in the middle of the room, giving Nero curious looks, making him and Xiong Zhelan uncomfortable.

"You can join the conversation, Little Lan. Don't you know that you will be my disciple? Of course, if you still want to go to the Black Sword Sect with us." Xiong Zhelan gave Xun Lan a friendly smile, looking like a loving grandfather with his granddaughter.

"Of course I want it! It would be an honor to be your disciple!" Xun Lan shone with happiness because with so much Nero in mind, she forgot about being Xiong Zhelan's disciple and going with him.

Now that Xun Lan thought about it better, she couldn't find it more perfect. She will leave this city without hope and go for a large and powerful sect as an elder's disciple. But it was not just that because she went with Nero.

Xun Lan was so happy that she knelt down to Xiong Zhelan, saying things like 'Xun Lan greets the master' and other things.

"Silly sister!!!" Xun Feng spoke again, but everyone could not help laughing because Xun Lan was very exaggerated.
