Realms In The Firmament

Ye Nantian took the letter and grabbed it in hand. Yue Gongxue cast her eyes on the letter.

Both of them felt their hearts beating fast.

Ye Nantian felt that the letter was heavier than a mountain in his hand.

He was stressed.

His hands started shaking.

“That…” Yue Gongxue reached out her shaking hand to take the letter.

Ye Nantian automatically stepped backward.

Yue Gongxue’s face lost color. She spoke loudly, “Give it to me!”

Ye Nantian took a deep breath, his face twisting. He hesitated, “This is…”

“Give it to me!” Yue Gongxue repeated determinedly.

Ye Nantian looked at her with a complicated expression in the eyes. He handed the letter to her in the end.

Yue Gongxue took the letter. At the moment, her face shifted between red and pale, and her lips were shaking.

Finally, she raised her hand up. She drew her face near the letter, and the pain in her heart made her burst into tears.

She raised her hand several times with tears continuously flowing down her eyes, trying to break the letter into pieces. However, she couldn’t do it.

Her hand seemed so weak.

“Should we unseal it?” Ye Nantian’s lips were shaking too.

“No!” Yue Gongxue screamed.

Ye Nantian actually felt relieved.

The war god, the wise man Ye Nantian, actually behaved in quite an awkward manner!

After a while, Yue Gongxue, who seemed to be lost in her thoughts, put the letter into a space ring. She cracked a small pit under the bed and put the ring into it. Afterward, she sealed the hole with a few Qiong-Hua specialized seals…

“You don’t read the letter. I won’t read the letter. Nobody reads the letter.” Yue Gongxue smiled sadly and said, “Maybe it will be forgotten as time passes day by day…”

“My son…” Yue Gongxue stayed in Ye Nantian’s arms and spoke in a soft voice. She was unpredictable.

The two of them stayed together, both with a mixture of different emotions.

Neither of them had ever said it out—that Ye Xiao was Xiao Monarch. However, maybe they decided to pretend he wasn’t.

…

Ye Xiao was flying in the sky along the airflow with no expression on the face.

The clouds were like some pieces of cotton fading away.

Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian were far behind him.

His power was exceedingly dominant in the world. It was impossible for Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian to catch up with him when he was flying in full power!

“Brother, what is going on? Please, you are scaring us,” Yue Shuang asked.

Even Yue Shuang and Yue Han had to push themselves really hard to catch up with Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao stayed silent.

“Brother…” Yue Han spoke, “I feel that you are a bit…”

Before she finished, she saw Ye Xiao’s cold face.

He was staring at the front concentratedly and spoke in a low voice, “Shuang-Er, Han-Er…”

Yue Shuang and Yue Han stayed with him, listening to him carefully.

“No secret in the world can last forever…” Ye Xiao started to talk, “We only get what we deserve… Being greedy is wrong. We will lose those that don’t belong to us someday… We can’t have them… It is already a great fortune to have what we are having at present…”

Yue Shuang and Yue Han nodded, but they didn’t seem to understand him truly.

They didn’t understand why he would say that…

The clouds were sliding away beside them as if they were fake…

It seemed everything could be realized. It seemed everything was a phantom… No matter what one experienced and how one felt… No matter how real it seemed to be… Those that were supposed to be false would eventually turn out to be false…

Fake meant fake!

Ye Xiao made a long shout and laughed, “In fact, fake means fake!” In his head, the memory of the warmth he experienced in the family continuously played over and over, which was like a sweet dream to him.

“I am satisfied enough…” Ye Xiao talked to himself, “At least I had parents in some part of my life.”

In his laughter, the sadness and dreariness could also be heard…

A howl sounded like thunderclaps. The shining golden light was approaching! The golden hawk!

“We are real! We are not fake!”

Yue Shuang suddenly shouted out because she felt heartbroken at that moment.

“Even if the world is fake… Brother, we are real!”

“That’s true! You are real!” Ye Xiao was still laughing.

He then flashed over the layers of clouds in the sky like a bolt of lightning.

Only a clear mark was left in the sky.

It was the dark spatial fissure.

The extreme speed had torn a spatial fissure in the space. As he flew over, the sky returned to normal.

“I have been here!”

“I am satisfied!”

“Man!”

“Can’t be greedy!”

Ye Xiao laughed.

Along with his laughter, teardrops fell in the air and flew along with it.

Nobody knew what was inside his heart when he made such arrogant laughter…

All of his emotions were hidden deep in the heart.

[My feelings belong to me alone.]

[They are mine to keep.]

[They are mine to taste.]

[They are mine to be sad of.]

[I am the only Ye Xiao!]

[A drop of tears ran off his eye and fell to the air.

He didn’t want to explain it.

The young Ye Xiao was killed, but not by Xiao Monarch.

He never wanted to take over the kid’s body… It was the heaven’s will who did it…

He didn’t mean it.

However, he didn’t need to explain it to anybody because what had happened was already a given.

He just felt hurt in the heart.

He felt lost.

…

In the Misty Cloud Palace.

Xuan Bing was still wearing her black clothes, standing in the clouds.

Her beautiful hair was blown up by the breeze. What a beautiful woman! However, she looked sullen. [The world is going to have a calamity.]

Things happened everywhere. It was obvious now.

The secret organization had finally taken their move. The first thing they did was the operation in Heaven’s Terrace. What they had done next, they made the superior cultivators from all sects missing…

After that, many average level sects or clans were wiped out one after another. Nobody knew who did the crimes. No dominant sects were targeted yet. However, people knew what would happen, wouldn’t they?

At the same time, Xiao Monarch and Fierce Blade, who were believed dead for years, actually returned to the world. Both of them had been significantly improved…

Was everything connected? Who were the enemies? Who could be allies? She had no idea yet… It was hard to see through…

She cast her profound eyes on the changing clouds. [Ye Xiao is back to the world… Maybe I should go out again…]

Her dark shadow flashed.

She became a cloud of dark fog and flew down the mountain.

The entire Misty Cloud Palace was shocked.

The great elder Xuan Bing was back! She was to be seen in the martial world again!
