Chereads / 50 years, my lord the crown prince / Chapter 2 - Before you ascends

Chapter 2 - Before you ascends

When you think you found someone you loved but... Turns out to be the one you hated the most.

Demon World: Vampire Clan

"Shuye..." His grandpa manage to say and coughed again. "As my only successor of Vampire Clan... Before you ascends the throne...you must complete your task. I assigned you to do."

Wei Shuye, crown prince of Vampire Clan bowed. "At once grandfather." In Demon World, there are Vampire and Devil which is considered powerful.

Wei Shuye was half Vampire and half Devil, that blood run through his veins which make him the strongest member of Demon World in history.

"Very well... I'm giving you fifty years. You must find and help the demon goddess to recover her memory." Demon Goddess, hundred of years ago... She died in the battle field.

They said, the demon goddess will soon be awaken again... But as a powerless mortal who lost her memory.

Whoever succeeded to bring her back will be her husband. But that case, Wei Shuye didn't know, neither did the other Clan except Viper.

Wei Shuye suddenly look at his grandpa and said. "Wait, grandpa. You're sending me to Human World are you?"

His grandpa look at him sternly and asked. "I am. Why? Do you have any objection?"

Wei Shuye immediately shut up and shook his head. [Fifty years in Human World, means no blood for years. Is it?] Although he is reluctant, he agreed.

Zhong Wei came behind him and bowed in respect. "Zhong Wei will assist you to the Human World. Remember Shuye, control your desire in blood."

"Vampire will starve without a blood..." Wei Shuye murmured. "What is it?"

Wei Shuye immediately stood up straight and hurriedly explained. "Ah, no, no, no! I said nothing, I may be able to survive without blood for years. Then I shall leave, take care grandpa."

When he turned around, his face went depressed. [The opposite I guess. I just hoped they sell blood in Human World.]

Viper Clan

"Darling Ye's going to Human World... To help the demon goddess?" Jing Liwei, Wei Shuye's secret admirer and viper lord of Viper Clan asked in disbelief.

The messenger nodded unsteadily. "I... I believe that was what his highness have heard."

"Outrageous!" [Doesn't he know he will marry the demon goddess if he did save her?]

He sighed helplessly and waved his hand dismissively. "It's no use... They didn't know anyway." The image of the demon goddess' blurry face appeared on his mind.

"I should've killed you back then. How dare you declare that order anyway without informing the other Clans about it. Now my dear hubby doesn't even know about it."

150 years ago: Before the battle field happen

Jing Liwei and his father look at the demon goddess' back, waiting for her to speak.

"When I won't make it alive. Just tell them I'll be back again. But the fact that I will marry whoever brings me back keep it a secret." Jing Liwei frowned at it.

"Why so?" The demon goddess wearing a veil covering half of her face turned around and chuckled. "To shock them all. I also wanted to meet the man who can save me."

"And if he is taken or even married?" Jing Liwei didn't know but it just blurted out.

This time, the demon goddess' eyes went dangerously serious. "Well... Then just kill them, nobody can take away what's mine."

Jing Liwei tsk on his mind. [Pretty confidence of herself. What will she do if the guy didn't even like her. Annoying! Not all guys who saved damsel in distress fall in love with each other. Only stupid one does.]

Back to reality

He rubbed his temple and close his eyes. [Seriously though. Although I want to go with him, I can't abandoned my duty here.]

"I swear to Demon god that I will kill you when you get back here."

Jing Liwei rose from his seat and shouted. "Someone..." [I'm sorry Darling Ye... But nobody can take you away from me. Not even that evil woman.]

Portal Land

Wei Shuye look at the portal colored with green and blue and sighed.

[There's no way going back to this.]

"Let's go." He ordered rather cold nor gentle. [I'm sure there'll be special blood that they sell in Human World.]

They both step out and the portal slowly started to fade away.

Viper Clan

A viper man kneeled down and reported. "My lord... We can't keep up with them, the portal already closed."

Hearing this, Jing Liwei frowned. "Are you an idiot? Then use your power to open it."

"Forgive me, my lord, but the portal was only gonna open with lords who have enough power. Us normal demons can't do it. I heard Lord Wei uses half of his power to open it."

Jing Liwei took a deep breath and calmly ordered. "Take my brother here."

"But..."

"Do it."

~~~~~

"My, my, my. My dearest brother finally decided on releasing me?" Jing Xupei, the former crown prince of Viper Clan asked smirking.

Because of him being madly in love with the demon goddess. Even when she ordered him to create chaos that will lead to war, he did. But when the demon goddess died, he was still strip of his position and sentence to jail.

Nobody even believed him, not even his younger brother. How pathetic.

Jing Liwei raised an eyebrow at him. "For the past few years, you still hadn't change, I see."

Jing Xupei look at Jing Liwei observingly. On looks, power and brain, Jing Xupei had it. But when it comes to plotting something scheming and manipulating someone, Jing Liwei had it all.

So in their father's perspective, Jing Liwei was the best. [No wonder father didn't even hesitate to strip my position and promote Liwei as soon as I was in prison.]

Jing Xupei laughed sarcastically inside. He heard their father was murdered by Jing Liwei himself.

Since they were child, they wanted their father's attention. While their father was busy making another women pregnant. All of the child that was not yet to be born had been killed.

Their father forced them to take abortion fearing the child won't be as strong as them. Since then, Jing Xupei waited for that perfect opportunity to kill him.

Unfortunately for him, he fell in love over the heels to a two faced girl who also betrayed him.

"Same as you." Jing Xupei said emotionless.

"A snake should be the one who seduce... Not to be seduce, my dear brother. Snakes should be scheming and be the one who attack their target. Snakes are faster to move than cheetah... Let alone goddesses. Once someone step on you, you should fight back. That was what snakes do."

Jing Liwei said and stuff a piece of grape on his mouth.

"Lecturing is not in my book right now, I'm afraid. Tell me your purpose." Jing Liwei let out a smirk hearing this. "You still like Rong Qimei don't you?"

Hearing the demon goddess' name, Jing Xupei's eyes that was clearly green turned scarlet. Cleaely angry as his viens started to show up at the side of his forehead. "Shut up."

"Well, I'll give you a chance."

Jing Liwei sat up straight and look at Jing Xupei dead serious. "Go to Human World and help her recover her memories. With that you can marry her, I'll give you my blessing. She's all yours."

"But in one condition." Jing Liwei said smirking and raise his index finger. "You must go there and prevent the crown prince of Vampire Clan on finding her before you."

Jing Xupei frowned hearing this. "Why do I feel like you are ordering me around?"

"Well my dear brother, I'm the Lord of Viper now. Position have got nothing to do with whose the elder one."

Jing Liwei said, smirking.

"Forget it. We have a deal."

Human World

Jing Xupei look around his surrounding and notice everyone looking at him with weird eyes.

Suddenly, a middle aged man walk towards him and greeted him with a smile.

"Excuse me young man but are you perhaps interested in modeling?" Jing Xupei frowned. "Modeling?"

The middle aged man immediately nodded. "Yeah." [With his looks and body. I'm sure I will benefit a lot. In a few years, I'll earn billion.]

Jing Xupei narrowed his eyes and coldy answers. "I do... But not to someone who is you."

Jing Xupei didn't know, but as soon as he arrive in here. Whoever walk pass him or closer to him... He can read their minds and tell who they are.

He didn't have that kind of power before. Maybe it is this human world, even if he is banned on using his power for decades...

It still have used here more that in the Demon World. It looks like his journey's about to begin. Turning around, he walk slowly unsure. [Human World had change do fast.]

Abandoned House

Jing Xupei look at the abandon house and sighed in relief. "Thank god this house was located to the forest. I can stay here for 30 years before looking for her..."

He said hesitating. "She might still be a baby for now."

Wei Shuye's side: Small Building

"You wanted me to raise this company?" Wei Shuye asked raising an eyebrow at Zhong Wei.

Zhong Wei nodded, bowing. "Your highness heard this servant right. For now Zhong Wei will be your assistant."

"But aren't we suppose to find the demon goddess?" He asked dumbfounded. "Or the demon goddess' still an infant for now? Maybe she wasn't even still born yet."

Zhong Wei gave him a nod. "Indeed."

Wei Shuye then gave him a nod in return too. "Then keep the company hidden first. After thirty years, disclose it but keep my identify secret. As for the employees use your power to create some."

"We'll hire real humans when the time comes. And don't forget to buy me some special blood."

Royal Vampires only drinks special blood, which is only in the Demon World to find. Normal Vampires can drink any blood or even animals'.
