Realms In The Firmament

For Bing’er, the most important thing was to make sure Ye Xiao was happy. However, Ye Xiao, even though was on top of the marital world, didn’t feel happy. Bing’er didn’t want to see him like that. Bing’er was Bing’er, but Bing’er was also Xuan Bing. She should still have some of her pride that she used to have as a great elder of a great set. However, she gave up all the pride just trying to make Ye Xiao happy!

It was undeniable that it cheered him up quite a lot to have Bing’er back with him. However, the thing that had been hidden so deep inside his heart was impossible to be removed by anybody except himself!

Jun Yinglian was upset and made a long sigh.

She absolutely saw whatever Bing’er could see. However, if Bing’er couldn’t make it work, she couldn’t do it either. That was why she only made a sigh about it.

“I never asked him about it, because I don’t want to remind him of anything that makes him feel sad.” Jun Yinglian spoke in a low voice. “I knew he showed up in the appearance of the young Lord Ye. In his heart, he is a member of the Ye Clan, the son of Ye Nantian and Yue Gongxue… However… Things changed. He used the name of Xiao Monarch and returned to the martial world like a hurricane!

“It happened so soon that it didn’t show any forewarning.

“Since then, he had never mentioned a word about his family, Ye Clan.” Jun Yinglian’s eyes seemed misted.

Xuan Bing looked gloomy too.

She said, “I spent over half a year in Land of Han-Yang with him… I was a little girl who knew nothing back then. However, I know everything. I know who he is now. That is why I know everything.

“When he fell to the Land of Han-Yang from the Qing-Yun Realm and started his second life in the young lord, he wanted to return to his prime, as a young man.

“That is why he acted so cold and cruel.

“After that, Uncle Song, the steward, Song Jue took care of him so carefully and thoughtfully. When master knew that Song Jue was Ye Nantian’s sworn brother who decided to stay in the Ye Clan of a lower realm, who suffered from big cultivation loss to stay with Ye Nantian…”

Xuan Bing paused and then said, “Master’s heart was warmed up again.

“After that, he started to make attempts to improve Ye Clan’s situation. That made him feel like a part of that family… When many clans and forces in the world started to take aim at him, Ye Nantian broke through lots of difficulties to return to the family only for his dear son.

“He said something when he was back.

“What he said had proved Ye Nantian’s qualification as a father to master!

“My son is my life! Who dares to kill my son gets his whole family killed by me!

“As an orphan, a master couldn’t resist the love of a father like that. His heart was moved…

“I was only Bing’er back then. I could see that the family was more and more important to him. He was more and more like a member of that clan. For some time, he was only the young lord, Ye Xiao, Ye Nantian’s son, not Xiao Monarch anymore.

“The young Lord Xiao replaced the Xiao Monarch in those days!

“In the beginning, he was happy about the change. He liked every progress he made there. Ye Clan getting better and better thrilled him up… He did so many things for the clan…”

Xuan Bing sighed and said, “He had forgotten Xiao Monarch already… He is an orphan. We have no idea how much he yearns for the love of his parents… He longed for it for a long time…”

Jun Yinglian felt sad about it, nearly shed tears because of the heart-rending truth.

“When he returned to the Qing-Yun Realm, he used a fake name because he didn’t want to bring troubles to the Ye Clan… When he thought he was powerful enough to help the clan, he rushed to the clan as fast as he could.

“Don’t doubt my words. I accompanied him the way to the clan as Xuan Bing.

“I could clearly feel the anxiety and excitement in his heart back then. He wanted to go home so badly. He wanted a complete family so much.

“He was back after all.

“He was back and settled everything in the clan on his own. He picked some young people who were hopeful in cultivation, improved their physical condition, trained them, and removed all the threats around the clan. He even gave the Misty Cloud Palace a lot of Regeneration Lotuses to build a tight connection for the clan. He told Yue Shuang and Yue Han who he truly was so that the two ladies would help Ye Nantian and Yue Gongxue out…

“He did everything he could, and worked as hard as he could for the clan!

“He only wanted the clan to live well. He only wanted the family to go well forever!

“That is all…”

Xuan Bing made a long sigh and actually couldn’t say anything more.

Jun Yinglian said sadly, “He has done everything for Ye Clan but in the end… When everything was becoming perfect for the clan, he himself was the most awkward and imperfect part of the clan… He realized there was no room for him anymore… He couldn’t stay in the clan anymore… Am I right?”

Xuan Bing sighed and didn’t know what to say anymore.

What Jun Yinglian said was exactly the truth.

When Ye Xiao was doing what he had done for the Ye Clan, he had no idea, and he would never have imagined that he was pushing himself out of the clan step by step!

He actually had no room in the family anymore. He couldn’t stay anymore.

His parents had their eyes filled with suspicion when staring at him. In fact, there was even a bit of hate, enmity, and hesitation. It felt like they were hesitating whether or not to say something that might hurt him. How could he still stay in the family calling himself their son, the young lord of the Ye Clan?

What else could he do even if he stayed?

Who could possibly explain everything right?

Should he tell them that the body was their son’s, but he didn’t kill him? Should he argue that their son had died before he took the body? Should he say that he was the only reason why the body remained still unharmed…

“I just borrowed the body. I like this family. I would love to take over this identity and be your son. I have done a lot for the family…”

Could he say that?

Even if he said that, would Ye Nantian and Yue Gongxue accept it, after the truth was brutally ripped out? Would they accept that the superior cultivator, an influential figure, a legend in the Qing-Yun Realm had taken over their son’s life and become their son?

Ye Nantian and Yue Gongxue should humbly call him master and show him great respect. However, the master took over their son’s body. Did that make him their son?

Wasn’t it awkward and twisted to get along with each other in a family like that?

In fact, would Ye Nantian and Yue Gongxue accept Ye Xiao’s explanation?

Would they just believe it?

Yue Gongxue suffered for ten months to give birth to the boy, and Ye Nantian raised him up through many difficulties. Ye Xiao just took over the body. Would they just believe that their beloved son had already died when Xiao Monarch took the body?

Didn’t Ye Xiao pretend to be their son for a long time?

Why didn’t he frankly tell them the truth, if he wasn’t guilty?

Xuan Bing and Jun Yinglian both made a deep sigh. They both knew it was difficult.

No matter what Ye Xiao did, it wouldn’t be right!

Jun Yinglian stayed silent for a while, and then she said softly, “Since… Since things are what they are now, we should use our way to make him happy again as his women.”

She stared at Xuan Bing with her pretty eyes and decisively said, “He is our man. We have the responsibility to make him happy. You are good at it, at least better than me!”

Xuan Bing blushed, and bashfully said, “Stop it…”

“No. I am telling the truth. There is nothing we can do to help him…” Jun Yinglian said, “The only thing we can do is to stay with him and show him the tender love of a woman. We help him get through a hard time.

“When the war is over, we should start preparing to ascend to the Human Realm Upon Heavens. Let’s all leave this place together.” Jun Yinglian said, “It will get over soon. The memory will be blurred. Time is the best cure for injuries in the heart. The passage of time makes people forget all the pain in the past.

“However, we still have to think of something to do for the short-coming future…” Jun Yinglian said, “We can’t live with a thorn sticking in the heart all the time.

“We must think of a way to remove it.”

Xuan Bing sighed and said, “If we want to remove the thorn, I am afraid we have to recover the scar first.”

Jun Yinglian silently agreed, and then said, “Forget it. We should focus on cleaning the moles first. Let him do it. Let him fight. Let him kill. It will vent his dissatisfaction… After that, we…”

Xuan Bing sighed and said, “I guess this is what we have to do. I have this feeling that he doesn’t want to stay here anymore. He wants to run away so bad. You have no idea how crazy he is when he is cultivating.

“I think you were right. When the war is over, he is going to leave immediately. He wouldn’t stay for even one more minute.”

Xuan Bing said, “And I know my feeling is right.”

Jun Yinglian humphed coldly and said, “If we are going to leave, we are going to leave in a grand way. If this isn’t happening, we can just leave quietly. I won’t have a problem with that. However, because of what is happening to Ye Xiao, we can’t just go silently!”

“The grander, the better!”

“When we leave, I want the entire Qing-Yun Realm to know it! I want the world to celebrate our ascending together!”

Jun Yinglian’s pretty eyes were shining the light of fierceness, and then she took a deep breath.

She wanted to say more fierce words, but she realized there was nothing more she could say. After all, those were birth parents to Ye Xiao. It was wrong to be too aggressive.

After all, as a woman, she was more or less understanding than Yue Gongxue.

As a mother, she could never accept the truth that somebody else replaced her dear son and lived in her son’s body!

She couldn’t let anybody replace her son!

Ye Xiao had taken the fifteen dan beads from Erhuo by playing some flattery art. Those dan beads were marvelous. Rou’er only took three dan beads, and she had already reached the limit in cultivation. Zhao Pingtian smiled so hard because he was so happy and he nearly twisted it. There were twelve left of the fifteen, so Ye Xiao generously just gave them to Rou’er. She couldn’t use them at the moment, but maybe she was going to need them in the future. It would be a good choice to use them to fix her soul energy loss when she needed to.

Rou’er politely refused to take them again and again. She had already improved over ten times in cultivation. Before taking the three dan beads, she could only check over a hundred people. However, as her cultivation was greatly strengthened, she could check over a thousand people’s souls in a bigger area while consuming less energy…

After that, she might be exhausted, but it only took her one night to recover. Bing’er helped her a lot because of the cold attributed energy from the special martial art. It was not difficult to keep searching for the moles! At the very least, she only needed to rest overnight, and she would be fully recovered!

In other word, even if there were ten thousand moles among the people, it only took Rou’er over ten days to get them all without the support from Bing’er.

It would be a great waste to use the dan beads on fixing the energy loss of Rou’er.

However, Ye Xiao insisted to give her all those dan beads. “Just take the dan beads. Do whatever you think is right… When you need to use them, just use them. Don’t hesitate. It is never a waste. Just use it when you need to use it. After all, we won’t be staying together all the time…”

Rou’er was so grateful that she kept saying thank you.

As Rou’er kept improving greatly in cultivation, she started to search for the moles more aggressively!

A silent massacre started.

With the effort of Rou’er, it was easy to find out the undercover enemies. Ye Xiao, Xuan Bing, and Jun Yinglian were totally powerful enough to get them down quickly. The enemies didn’t have time to think about resisting before they got killed perfectly.

In the darkness of the night, Rou’er became a cloud of grey fog floating in the valley. As long as she didn’t show herself, even Ye Xiao didn’t know where she was.

Those undercover cultivators from the secret organization were found out one by one. That was accurate. Ye Xiao, Xuan Bing, and Jun Yinglian had tortured several of them trying to get some information, but they finally confirmed that it was impossible to make them talk.

However, with Erhuo’s hint, Ye Xiao found that when those cultivators died, their souls weren’t complete. A part of their souls would scatter and disappear.

After that, the soul would be gone.

Within one night, Rou’er had found out over thirty-seven hundred people with Xuan Bing’s help. These men all died in Ye Xiao and Jun Yinglian’s hands. When Jun Yinglian cracked a man’s skull with a palm hit, she noticed that the man’s skull was black.

It seemed something really horrible was invading this man’s brain. It felt extremely creepy and dark. When the man died, the darkness of the skull would disappear immediately…

In the end, the brain of the dead man would disappear too…
