Chapter 1133: Town of Anxiety

Zhan Yunfei woodenly said, “It is the rule of nature that the winner decides life and death. We Cold Moon Palace will patiently wait for your attacks, ladies.”

He was a dominant figure in Cold Moon Palace after all. Facing the ladies’ threat, no matter how influential, potent, and robust the ladies were, he couldn’t disgrace his own sect. That was why he responded neither humbly nor arrogantly. However, he still sighed sullenly.

What should happen would eventually happen.

“If anybody listens to me...” Ye Xiao smiled and said, “... It is always better to make peace than to make contention. Ladies, calm down. Why can’t we just talk it through instead of having endless fights... In my opinion, Cold Moon Palace... is a fine sect. If... If we can all put that grudge behind, it will be much better than falling into an endless war for both sides...”

What he said totally shocked everybody else! Nobody talked for a while after him!

[Is he out of his mind? What? Is he going to thrust up to the heavens? Or is he simply going to get himself killed?]

[How dare him say these words at this particular moment?]

[They killed their beloved brother... How could you try to make them talk the hatred off?]

[Even though you are also named Ye Xiao, and the two ladies showed respect to you because of your name, you should always know clearly what the situation really is! They showed respect to you just because they loved their brother too much! Aren’t you overestimating yourself, saying something that you shouldn’t have said?]

Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian were both surprised. [Come on, little brother disciple! I know you want to make a contribution to our sect, but you should first make sure you are speaking in a situation that you are allowed to speak. What you said, you were denying the love of the two ladies to their brother! Considering how much they loved their brother, they could have killed you instantly just now!]

They would like to do something to keep Ye Xiao safe, but they just couldn’t. First of all, they were not strong enough. Second, Ye Xiao was sitting between the two ladies. The two brothers literally had no idea how to save Ye Xiao from that position!

Ye Nantian was worried and anxious too. He was glad that Ye Xiao was loyal to his own sect, but he also knew Ye Xiao had spoken the wrongs words in a wrong situation! He was the weakest among the people at the table, so there was nothing he could do except being anxious about it.

“No. The hatred will remain. We will take revenge for our brother someday.” The two ladies talked fiercely. However, they gave in a bit and said, “Well, we might see the three factions in different ways though... Cold Moon Palace didn’t send many men to fight my brother. We know what to do with them particularly...”

That meant there was a slight chance for Cold Moon Palace to be safe. It was quite an influential statement!

The latter part of the dinner was full of awkwardness and complexity.

After the dinner, Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian returned to their room with heavy hearts. They kept sighing.

Yue Shuang and Yue Han were too powerful...

Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian could see the dense blood mist in the air of the Cold Moon Palace in the future.

Ye Nantian, the host, could do nothing about it either. He only made a long sigh.

Xiao Monarch’s death was an unsolvable problem.

At the very least, if not for Xiao Monarch’s friend Jun Yinglian, Ye Nantian, his wife, and his son would have died for a long time!

He didn’t need to take revenge for Xiao Monarch though. However, if anybody told him to stand on Xiao Monarch’s enemy’s side, he would never be able to do it!

In fact, Ye Nantian didn’t know all about the truth back in the years. The reason why they could survive the hunt, and the reason why Moon Queen would make a promise to give Ye Nantian a chance, was that Xiao Monarch and Jun Yinglian had gone together to Qiong-Hua Palace and asked the Moon Queen to spare them!

...

“Yue Han!” In the room, Yue Shuang strictly stared at Yue Han. “What’s wrong with you! How could you be so muddleheaded?”

Yue Han’s lips were twisted. She kept her head low and stood straight up like a kid who had done something wrong, standing there to be scolded.

“Come on, it’s fine... She did make it up in the end, didn’t she?” Ye Xiao didn’t want the little sister to feel bad. “It doesn’t need to be so harsh. She didn’t mean it anyway. Do you have to scold her like this...”

“Humph!” Yue Shuang didn’t stop. “The girl never watches her mouth. She won’t remember the lesson if she doesn’t feel the pain of it!”

“I will make the decision. Let’s just get this over.” Ye Xiao was helpless since Yue Shuang didn’t give in even a bit. He decided to forcibly end the matter soon.

“Brother, don’t blame sister. It was my fault...” Yue Han’s eyes were twinkling with tears.

“You know it, you admit it, and you correct it! Your punishment will be to protect me well afterward.” Ye Xiao rolled his eyeballs around. “It is time for you two to protect me as a return.”

“Absolutely! We were going to say so!” The ladies decisively said together, “From now on, we will rather let ourselves break into pieces than let anybody hurt you a bit!”

They sounded so decisive as if they were humbly making a vow to the gods!

It was emphatic!

It was undoubtedly!

Ye Xiao could feel the determination from their words!

“Fine. Good. Go rest, you two. It will be another brand new day when you wake up.” Ye Xiao said, “I can’t stay with you for too long. I will come again tomorrow when I get up.”

“Okay!” The ladies said yes but looked at Ye Xiao intently, unwilling to let him leave. Ye Xiao felt soft in the heart. He almost decided to stay, but then wisely left!

...

The next day, when Ye Xiao saw Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian, the two brothers looked extremely sleepy.

Their eye frames were dark.

Apparently, they had been through a sleepless night.

They were two great cultivators, who wouldn’t look so bad even after ten sleepless nights, let alone only one night. However, because of the two frosty ladies, they were suffering a colossal depression all night. They just felt powerless about it.

When they saw Ye Xiao, they sighed at the same time.

Ye Xiao honestly understood how they felt.

Back in the old days, Xiao Monarch and Fierce Blade had stirred the three factions in chaos. The three factions had lost many good men in the fights. In the end, the three factions sacrificed almost over half of their force to kill the two dominant figures.

After that, Jun Yinglian, who was not much weaker than the two guys, kept harassing the three factions even till present.

Jun Yinglian hadn’t finished what she started yet. However, two ladies who were much stronger than Jun Yinglian popped out to declare enmity to the three factions. Besides, there was a Shadowless Assassin... For the three factions, Han Bingxue was another hidden threat that hadn’t shown up yet...

How could Han Bingxue not go seek for revenge? He was Ye Xiao’s most loyal friend after all!

Once somebody stirred a wave against the three factions, Xiao Monarch and Fierce Blade’s friends, the forces that had been supporting the two of them, might join together and become a horrible wave of a blast! It might end up to be a big disaster for the entire martial world!

However, Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian only felt hopeless and powerless about it.

“Brother disciples, what is troubling you?” Ye Xiao asked, even though he knew the answer.
