The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time (BL)

0During the entire trip, Shao Cheng's consciousness only returned once in a while and he was surprised to find himself traveling with his three sisters, something he found utterly ironic.     0

Because from the start, he had already planned to follow his siblings in their tradition of a yearly visit to their grandfather's fief, but there are always troubles, problems, and accidents appearing one by one that he considered dismissing his plan.     

Honestly, compared to the previous life's early years after transmigrating, he didn't have to face all the various types of troublesome situations.     

And with the way Shao Cheng's mentality is being greatly affected, he planned to make his visit to his grandfather at another time.     

Fortunately, based on Purple and Goldy's explanation, since his memories are a bit missing while in the unresponsive state, his other 'side' was easily pacified by the constant wine jar he was being given, or more like, used to seduce him to accompany them in the journey.     

Added to the fact that his subconscious protection of those who he cares about is helping out with his actions.     

So, Shao Cheng felt a bit relieved with travelling with his three beautiful sisters even if he still acts like a ticking time bomb. At most, there is a higher possibility of him going crazy if his three sisters are once again attacked.     

He will have to figure out who is already making their move among the ones who wanted to deal with his family.     

"Look after them."     

"Of course, you don't need to tell me about it. I, the amazing purple dragon, would look after my Aunties~"     

Purple puffs his chest in a proud manner while gently swaying in the air, instead of his usual resting place, which is on the young man's head.     

"Goldy, you are doing great. Keep it up."     

Hidden among the thick leaves of the tree, Shao Cheng gently caresses the small baby snake wrapped around his wrist before his extremely tired and hazy eyes gazed at his three sisters happily chatting in front of the firewood after stopping for the night.     

Even though he is getting better, the exhausted and haunted look in his eyes didn't abate one bit after all these days. And he knew for a fact that such emotions won't disappear for his entire life because he just couldn't do it.     

Everything is the consequence of his actions, and it's the sin he would have to carry for the rest of his life.     

Just give me a bit more time…     

Because just as always, Shao Cheng will pick up the broken pieces even if they won't fit together the exact same way anymore. All he could do is hide it better so no one would be able to see how far gone and miserable he is.     

He won't turn a blind eye to the aftermath of his actions nor all the karma he accumulated.     

Shao Cheng closed his tired eyes while the cracking sound of firewood reached his ears, along with the happy sounds of his three sisters.     

So, whatever God is listening to, please let me make everything alright…     

There are so many things he needed to do, many mistakes to correct, and many failures to make up for.     

Ren Yuan… are you doing well?     

Despite it all, he couldn't forget the person he had wronged the most and couldn't really get away from, even if his heart twisted in pain just by the mere thought of him. At the same time, the unforgettable warmth remains along the selfish yearning of a love bygone.      

It's a bittersweet feeling.     

But Shao Cheng will always be an extremely loathsome and cruel person, heartless and ruthless, and he won't ever change. The only difference this time is which people he will direct his inhuman and cold-blooded attention to.     

Ah… I'm a scumbag, and trash person, right, my dear younger brother?     

Shao Cheng's first life felt so far away now as he lay down upon the branch of a large tree, still unable to forget his first ever precious person while at the same time, pitifully basking in the warm presence of the siblings he once didn't care about.     

…     

Throughout their travel, Shao Cheng wasn't conscious much, especially when there wasn't any blessed land around for him to heal.     

Thus, he is always in the state of an unkempt and drunkard young man, even when his two older sisters tried to make his appearance presentable and normal. He doesn't allow them to get close or to even touch him.     

Unless, when he is receiving a wine jar as a bribe for accompanying them on the official route, then he became more obedient, such a double standard attitude caused the Shao ladies to giggle in a friendly manner instead of getting annoyed.     

"Hm?"     

Purple suddenly jolted up on top of Shao Cheng's head, who, at the same time, had also stopped his footsteps, allowing the carriage to bypass him, while the guards who were following along only silently glanced in his direction before looking around with alarmed looks in their eyes.     

After all, the guards soon quickly learned how powerful his instinctive reaction to danger was along their journey.     

"Little friend, what's wrong?"     

Shao Yao gently asked after noticing Shao Cheng had stopped following them, and when there wasn't any reply back, she ordered the carriage driver to stop.     

"There is something amiss in the air."     

One of the main reasons why Purple had allowed his Papa bug to travel with his sisters was the fact that he felt a strong, blessed land in the direction of where they are traveling. And the moment they took a step toward the fief land with a connection to the Shao Family, Purple felt the blessing bestowed in the land.     

It was a territory given to the ancestor of the Shao family who had made great contributions in the past. At the same time, a great gift from one of the rare benevolent Emperors that had governed the Chang Empire because the Imperial Princess had also married that Shao ancestor.     

It was written in history how that certain Emperor had greatly loved and favored his older sister, thus, giving one of the most fertile lands in the Chang Empire without fearing the consequences of his actions about the danger it might hold to his rule.     

After all, the Shao Great General's power, status, and influence had been powerful during that time. One could say, it was the peak of power of the Shao Family in the Chang Empire.     

And yet, he was given a greatly fertile land blessed with large amounts of water in the rivers and lakes that haven't dried up until this day.     

The land is also surrounded by countless mountains and vibrant forests, along with the most acknowledged landmark in the area.     

Which is the biggest, largest and tallest waterfall that could still be slightly seen in the far-off distance, which looked extremely beautiful and striking to gaze upon despite how far it is.     

Fortunately, the Emperor's decision had been extremely wise, because, until this day, the Shao family had never borne any traitorous thought, completely remaining loyal and faithful to the Imperial Power.     

Until Shao Cheng appeared, that is, creating utter chaos and great disturbance in the Chang Empire's fate and destiny.     

So yeah…     

In addition to Purple feeling, the thick and heavy blessed aura in the Shao fief land, he could also feel a certain disturbance to the flow of aura in the land.     

He couldn't fully explain the feeling he felt.     

It was the first time he felt this way among the blessed place, and yet, he could also feel a distinct feeling upon it.     

Suddenly, Purple couldn't help but once again rethink how his Papa bug had decided to visit his grandfather as part of his plan. Based on the disturbing sensation he felt in his skin, there is no way the visit was as simple as his Papa bug getting closer to his grandfather after all these years, is.     

Purple still remembered what happened to the once bountiful and fertile land in the previous life. In the oncoming years, various problems suddenly occurred until the once prosperous land of the Shao ended up decaying to an extremely saddening degree.     

The most envied and glorious place had turned desolate.     

And it stayed the same way even when his Host had won the throne for that traitorous younger brother in the previous life.     

Sigh…     

"It's time to go."     

There is an important investigation to do, the entire situation in this blessed land has become extremely abnormal and unusual.     

After all, the unexpected situation is showing how it will greatly affect the land in the Chang Empire, which shouldn't occur with how thick and blessed the land should be.     

What happened in the previous life shouldn't have occurred at all.     

If there isn't a special existence such as Purple along with his Papa bug eyes that saw the true form of the world and a strong connection to the Chang Empire itself, then the unnatural decline of what occurred in the previous life would only be explained as a natural disaster.     

In which, the Mother Nature itself has affirmed that the Shao Fief's prosperous time is over.     

After all, everything has an ending, and the Shao territory that had been flourishing for countless generations is finally going to collapse.     

"Time to say goodbye to the beautiful ladies."     

And this time, the young man obediently followed Purple words, waving goodbye toward the curious and worried Shao Yao, Yanlin, and Chia before turning around and disappearing deep into the forest without hesitation.
