Bab 26: XXVI
[Playing Disturbed - The Vengeful One]
'Man… chill with the song choices or I might end up killing someone by accident...'
[System: I'm the hand of God, I'm the dark messiahhh…]
BANG.
"... Who dares break into the Helian-"
BANG.
BANG.
Rokas stormed the Helian Family's residence, slapping anyone who got in his way with his new spiked mace. In the end, he did get the attention of the Patriarchs. Jiufang Kui and Helian Kuang both observed what had occurred with shock, bewilderment and anger.
"Such arrogance…" Helian Kuang frowned, unleashing his monarch strength.
"Ke'er… that cannot be you, can it?" Jiufang Kui furrowed his brows.
"Oh, it is." Rokas burst forward at maximum speed, punching straight into the trunk of Jiufang Kui's profound veins.
Crack…
"Gah…" Jiufang Kui stepped back, collapsing onto the ground only moments after. He spat out several mouthfuls of blood as his profound strength began to scatter.
"Would you like to be next?" Rokas titled his head as he stared at Helian Kuang, unleashing his Nine-Headed Flood Dragon soul onto him. "Crippled, I mean."
"..." Heliang Kuang paused, feeling his knees buckle in fear.
"Good boy." Rokas turned back to Jiufang Kui. "As for you… do you remember what you said to me? I'll give you time."
Rokas took Jiufang Kui away from the Helian Family, dragging him back to the Jiufang Family. Then he gathered everyone with a thunderous roar… while keeping his foot over the crippled Jiufang Kui.
"With each breath that you take, you disgrace our prestigious family. Perhaps a few of the other Guardian Families would have pampered such trash… but I, Jiufang Ke, will not stand here and shelter trash, even if it is my own father! Not anymore… I simply refuse!"
Rokas kicked away Jiufang Kui through the entrance and into the street like a piece of trash while suppressing himself to the utmost limit. Jiufang Kui stood up with a helpless and shocked expression.
"You are not the Patriarch of the Jiufang Family. You are not a monarch expert. You are no one."
"A piece of trash with no wealth, background or support." Rokas channelled his Divine Authority over Jiufang Kui. "You are… a homeless beggar now. Begone."
Rokas turned back to the crowd of Jiufang Family members as Jiufang Kui sat frozen with shock, muttering the words. "I am a homeless beggar… I am a homeless beggar…"
Eventually, he got up and started acting the part.
[System: Man just gave him a mental illness… crazy.]
"If I catch any of you supporting that old bastard, I'll cripple you too," Rokas spoke with a rather monotone voice which sounded more than convincing. "As my older brother and father are either dead or exiled, I should be next-in-line for Patriarch. However… that is not a position that I desire in the slightest. Because, to be honest, I don't fuck with any of you… except for my uncle Jiufang Pi."
"Nephew… I know they were hard on you, but…"
"You will be the next Patriarch." Rokas decided, turning to Jiufang Pi. "Forget about that nobody and embrace who you are now."
"I… can't…"
"What do you mean, you can't? You can and you will." Rokas' eyes shined gold with Divine Authority. Against the original Nine-Headed Flood Dragon… his influence was far too great.
"I… will."
[System: Forcing promotions on your uncle?]
'I wouldn't want anyone else to be the Patriarch. It's either him or they're all getting sent to Brazil.'
[System: Rough.]
"Alright… Rokas stroked his chin. "Uncle, come with me. I'll set you right."
He opened all of his profound entrances, gave him a diluted drop of his divine blood and dumped a good portion of the Joufang Family's resources alongside the Primal Chaos Heavenly Ruler. With all of that, his battle strength neared the middle stages of the Sovereign Profound Realm… which was good enough for the moment.
While he was reluctant to lead at first, Jiufang Pi seemed to enjoy the luxuries that came with being the Patriarch. With Rokas' presence, his rule was not put to question… in truth, he was more of a popular Patriarch than the last. His easy-going and caring nature made him more charming than his older brother.
…
Afterwards, Rokas sat down in his old room and looked into the mirror. Once the high from getting his vengeance vanished… he felt empty.
"Was it worth it?" Li Suo questioned, appearing before him.
"Worth it? At that point, it really was. I felt like I was on top of the world… a victor." Rokas nodded, tilting his head as his wild brown hair started getting in the way. "How could I let the ghosts of the past continue to haunt me, even when I could easily conquer them?"
"Your revenge was not necessary… killing means ending their life, leaving no room for improvement. You will only ever have one older brother-"
"The devils who poisoned you…" Rokas glanced at Li Suo. "The same ones who almost killed you… would you forgive them too? Say… what if someone were to ravage your pure body, would you forgive him too? How much can you tolerate until the line of forgiveness is crossed, Li Suo?"
"You…"
"Did I make you angry?" Rokas chuckled, glancing away. "Then that means you wouldn't forgive them, after all."
Li Suo didn't even look at him as she returned to his Inner World.
[System: Man really made Li Suo mad… you're on Menace timing today, truly.]
'It is what it is…' Rokas sighed, shrugging his shoulders.
[Li Suo (Empress III) Confidant Rank: 2 —> 3]
'It rose from that? Crazy.'
After he angered Li Suo, Rokas sought Xia Qingyue's comfort. She readily agreed… leading to him resting his head on her lap.
"Are you okay?"
"Did your opinion of me change?" Rokas wondered, looking up. He was mostly sure that it didn't but wanted to hear it from her. "I… let my anger get the better of me."
"What you did was punish two ants who once humiliated you. Why would my opinion of you change because of that?" Xia Qingyue spoke with a relatively warm tone as she caressed his face. "Do you remember what you said at the Sun Moon Divine Hall… that your life was infinitely more important than theirs?"
"... Yeah…" Rokas nodded.
"They betrayed you, trampled on your pride and threw you out… why should you, someone who stands at the peak of this world, feel anything for them? I am glad that you expressed the fury in your heart… otherwise you'd continue living with those thorns in your heart. Only someone like Li Suo would berate you for doing that."
Rokas, after hearing her understanding words, felt much better about himself. He hadn't become some murderous, sadistic, hobo… he had only done what was right to those who had done him wrong. Now, whenever he thought of his earlier humiliation, all he saw was the result that came years after.
Her words had set his heart at ease.
"Thank you… I needed that."
Rokas smiled slightly, groping her left breast as he pushed her down and dispersed the rather solemn atmosphere.
'They do be getting bigger.'
"You…" Xia Qingyue blushed slightly as he was on top of her. "Shouldn't surprise me like that…"
"I love you so much… I can't even put it to words." Rokas kissed her neck, eventually going up to her face and then those tender pink lips. She wasn't the only smooth lover around, after all… all that practice had made him somewhat of an expert.
"Then… why don't you marry me?"
"You want to get married?" Rokas suddenly stopped, blinking with surprise.
"Why are you looking at me like that thought has never crossed your mind?"
"Well… wouldn't you want to see your mother first? I mean…"
"That would take many years even if you tried your best… and our marriage would be between us and not our parents. We are old enough to make our own decisions, are we not?" Xia Qingyue's eyes shined with a magnificent lustre as she looked into Rokas' dreamy golden eyes.
They looked at each other for a while… before Qingyue finished what she had to say.
"Let Qingyue be your wife… and scale the heavens by your side…"
"... How could I reject the celestial fairy who has stolen my heart?" Rokas smiled, as his hands grasped hers. "Even if you wished to leave my side, I wouldn't let you go."
[Xia Qingyue (Hanged Man XII) Confidant Rank: 8 → 9]
[Luck: F- → C]
[System: Your luck has been balanced… the Ancestral Goddess would surely be coughing up a Uranus amount of blood if she was fully reborn.]
'... Chill, I'm not trying to crack out laughing in a romantic moment!'
[System: Alrighty, continue your lovey-dovey stuff.]
"That is reassuring." Xia Qingyue smiled, tilting her head. "I would have to be out of my mind to leave the man who conquered me."
"So you don't mind if I… do this?" Rokas Clothes Beamed Xia Qingyue, changing her dress into a set of sexy dark purple lingerie. 'One of man's greatest creations. God bless the inventors.'
"So…" Xia Qingyue observed her new clothes which were indecent, to say the least. "This is what you'd prefer me to wear…"
"Only in the bedroom before me. What… are you uncomfortable?" Rokas scratched his hair. "I mean, I could change it back…"
"No, it's fine." Xia Qingyue grabbed his head and dropped into her bosom. "You've seen me naked hundreds of times. How could such clothing make me uncomfortable? It is only… new to me."
"That's good, then…" Rokas motorboated her breasts a little, grinning afterwards as he raised himself. "You know, Cang Yue isn't around to back you up tonight…"
"That's a good thing… I'll have you all to myself." Xia Qingyue turned him around and erased his clothes.
"Oh~…"
(The rest of this section is R-18ish… so yeah.)
By the time she had grasped it with her tender hand, Rokas' dragon rod had already hardened. While he sat on the edge of the bed, she kneeled outside of it. First, she gave it a few strokes before placing her sweet lips on the bottom left side and sliding her tongue all the way up.
"... You got it…" Rokas remarked, moving her loose strands of hair to the side. They kept going back so he gathered her hair into his left hand.
After licking up both sides enough, Xia Qingyue started to taste the tip with her lips.
"Hmm-"
Rokas pushed her head all the way down with his left hand, surprising Xia Qingyue slightly. After a few seconds, she withdrew and looked at him.
"So that's how you're feeling today…"
"When you're looking so sexy and start teasing me on top of that, I can't help myself," Rokas replied, smiling slightly.
"Mn…"
Xia Qingyue went down again, supported by a gentle push from Rokas. She kept at it, going down to deepthroat him whole and withdrawing to do so again. She seemed to have no gag reflex whatsoever… which was a little terrifying.
Although Xia Qingyue didn't have it in her to be much of a romantic or dirty-talker… she spoke more through her actions.
Once Rokas started to reach his climax, Xia Qingyue stepped forward a little and slipped his dick between the bra. Then she lifted her hands and pressed her breasts against it, engulfing it whole in a world of pleasure. Rubbed against those perfect mountains… even the dragon rod wouldn't last long.
"Just like that…" Rokas felt his breathing grow more erratic as his heart started to beat faster. He caressed Xia Qingyue's face and pressed his thumb against her lip before using his left-hand grip on her hair to push her lips down. "Ah…"
Xia Qingyue accepted the challenge, going down on him. With the double combo of breasts and tongue…
Rokas didn't last much longer, releasing quite the flow of sperm… however, even after he was done, Xia Qingyue kept going.
'She really trying to make me regret pushing her…' Rokas chuckled, although his jestful attitude didn't last long when his soul was pretty much getting sucked out.
"Rela…x…"
"Gawk… gawk…"
She was relentless, forcing everything out.
…
"Mn…" Xia Qingyue finally withdrew, her cheeks full of a certain substance. She gulped, swallowing everything and then proceeded to look up at him. "Sweeter than last time… I suppose those pineapples did make a difference."
"Y… yeah…" Rokas dropped his head, collapsing onto the bed. "Aha… give me… a moment…"
Xia Qingyue stood up, smiling slightly as she pounced on him like a tigress.
"Don't worry, I'll start slow…"
'If she wants the best girl spot… she got it.' Rokas thought to himself. 'Someday… I'll tell her my real name. She deserves that much. So does Cang Yue.'
(R-18 section end)
…
"Your perverted nature knows no bounds!" Jasmine berated him after, following it up with her classic 'hmph'.
"What did I do now?" Rokas scratched his hair.
"That clothing… hmph, this princess feels terrible even thinking about the corrupting things you do to that celestial fairy."
"Err… the lingerie?" Rokas grinned, channelling his Clothes Beam. "You know… if you wanted a set yourself, you should just ask-…"
"Don't you dare!!!"
"I'm just kidding." Rokas laughed, letting go. "You're way too childish looking for me."
"..." Jasmine furrowed her brows, turning away. "That's a good thing! I won't ever have to suffer your fiendish ways…"
"Actually… you call me a pervert and a sex fiend, right? But, as far as I know, you have to try to look outside of my Inner World to see what's happening. So who's the real pervert always peaking at my intimate moments, hmmmm?"
"I… shut up! I was simply keeping my keen senses so that no one would suddenly catch you off-guard."
"Uh-huh." Rokas chuckled sarcastically. "I'm totally convinced."

Before long, the Jiufang Family was called into an emergency assembly which included the other Guardian Families, Duke Palaces and would be overseen by the Little Demon Empress herself. It was the largest gathering of powerhouses in quite a while within the Illusory Demon Realm. After all, the sudden loss of a Patriarch and young patriarch was rather important. Especially given that one of the conflicts was put on public display in a plaza… it simply could not be ignored.
…
"Tortured and assumed to have killed his older brother, stole a weapon, caused damage to a plaza, threatened to cripple his uncle… a patriarch of a Guardian Family, crippled his own father and the Patriarch of his own Guardian Family. Then he appointed you, his other uncle, as the new Patriarch while giving up the position?" Huan Caiyi summarised the report she had been given with a frown throughout that only grew deeper. "Who does this young fool think he is, to be so impertinent within my Demon Imperial City!?"
"My Little Demon Empress, he is no ordinary youngster. His power… may even rival Duke Ming's!" Helian Kuang exclaimed. "I've felt it first-hand… I don't know what methods he used, but my nephew has reached a realm of power that most of us cannot even contend against."
(For context, Jiufang Ke's mother was Helian Kuang's sister, making him his uncle.)
"Where is that arrogant brat… I'll set him straight!" Huan Caiyi ignored the warning, slamming her little fist against the table.
"Way hay and up she rises, early in the morning!" Rokas sang Drunken Sailor in the hallways as he approached the grand hall. Eventually, he opened the doors and nonchalantly walked inside.
"Put him in the bed with the captain's daughter… put him in the bed with the captain's daughter… ah, my apologies, I was just refining my singing skills." Rokas looked around, analysing everyone. "Wow, Little Demon Empress… you're… uhm, don't mind me."
'Flat is what I meant to say… she would make a cute little sister.'
[System: She's over a hundred and seventy years old…]
'A wiser cute little sister.'
"..." Huan Caiyi paused for a moment, her face turning a little red with rage. "Are you Jiufang Ke?"
"That's me." Rokas nodded, shrugging his shoulders. "Although, I go by Long Ke these days. So… I heard you wanted me?"
Huan Caiyi took a deep breath, sitting down on her seat.
"Why don't you go ahead and explain yourself. This Empress will judge you herself… and if I find that the reasoning for your actions is lacklustre in any aspect, I will execute you at once for your seemingly endless list of crimes!"
[System: You never thought you'd be on trial, did you?]
'No… and yet I'll be coming out just fine. As for those treacherous rats, it's the ideal time to expose them all.'
Rokas rubbed his hands, calmly sweeping his eyes across the many prestigious figures.
