Chapter 1263: Distressed

Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy

Ye Xiao was graceful and unhurried, while the ladies were all in shock. He smiled blandly and said, “Everyone, it has been a while.”

Ye Xiao, the famous Xiao Monarch, had been to Sky Ice Palace many times. Although he hadn’t done anything unspoken with Jun Yinglian in this palace, the relationship between the two of them was known as a fact to the leadership of Sky Ice Palace. At the moment, Ye Xiao arrived at this place again, with the appearance of Xiao Monarch. It was not such a surprise to the people that Xiao Monarch was alive again, but that he came to the lady who was known to be his girlfriend!

“That’s... That’s true... It has been a long time...” The ladies were all numb, answering with their souls almost out of their body while staring at Ye Xiao with their blank eyes.

Jun Yinglian couldn’t help smiling.

Ye Xiao came to Sky Ice Palace in high profile, showing everybody that he, Xiao Monarch, had come for Jun Yinglian. It more or less proved the relationship between the two of them. How could that not please Jun Yinglian? She was happy!

...

After Jun Yinglian returned to Sky Ice Palace, everybody could tell that she was entirely different. She was not the grieved woman three years earlier anymore, who had changed into a different person.

The first thing she did was to destroy the tomb of Xiao Monarch by one palm hit. After that, she seemed pretty leisured, enjoying everything in daily life, and always smiling. When she walked, it seemed she was followed by the warmest spring breeze all the time. When she talked, she didn’t sound cold and frosty anymore. When she was alone, her cheeks turned red from time to time, which meant she must be thinking about something...

Although she was no longer the Prime Master of Sky Ice Palace, she was still as important as before. As the most influential figure in Sky Ice Palace, she was the most important person for the sect. When she decided to go to take revenge for Xiao Monarch and give up her own life for it, almost everybody in the palace had tried to let her give up the crazy idea. However, no matter what they said, how they spoke, none of their words mattered to her! She was determined!

When she gave up the seat of Prime Master of Sky Ice Palace, the entire palace was sticking in the sorrow. Everybody knew that their Prime Master was very possibly going to die outside the palace somewhere in the world...

However, after some days, she returned to the palace! She actually returned in such an excellent condition!

Everybody was happy about it but didn’t understand it. Some of them guessed, [Prime Master must have been through something so special that she finally gave up the idea of dying for that cheap stupid fool...]

[It seems... she must have cheated... Wait... That’s not a correct word... Well... She must have met the true love of her life out there...]

[That’s right! True love!]

[If not, she would never suddenly become like this. When she is lost in thoughts, sometimes, her cheeks turn red... That is exactly when a girl falls in love with somebody!]

The entire Sky Ice Palace was happy about what happened to their Prime Master.

As long as their Prime Master could move on and get rid of the shadow of Xiao Monarch, the elders in Sky Ice Palace would accept even the most ordinary man in the world as her husband.

It was better than letting her die in the battle, wasn’t it?

However, they still couldn’t understand why she would fall in love with somebody else since she had been loving Xiao Monarch so deeply for a long time and only went out for the first time since Xiao Monarch died! Who on earth had the charm to make her forget Xiao Monarch?

Who on earth was capable of making Jun Yinglian turn her back on Xiao Monarch...

It was a question in everybody’s heart that nobody had the answer.

They guessed whoever the man was, he must be her true love in her life, but the true love story was only a dream in romantic stories. They wanted to believe it, but true love was something unreliable!

Now, they finally got the answer to Jun Yinglian’s change.

There was no other man! She had never thought it through! People in Sky Ice Palace had wasted their imagination all those days! They were wrong! The truth was simple... Xiao Monarch was still alive!

“Xiao Monarch! Who claims to laugh upon all heroes! Wow!”

The two girls finally realized who he was and started to exclaim in excitement.

The others were wordless about it.

[What are they excited for?]

“Why are you here?” Jun Yinglian looked at Ye Xiao, full of love in her eyes.

Ye Xiao was frank, “I miss you, so I am here.”

Jun Yinglian’s cheeks turned red.

[What are you doing, you idiot! There are many people around! Do you want me to be laughed at?]

[Well, but... I am so happy to hear it... I want more of the sweet words!]

The superior cultivators of Sky Ice Palace around them all had their cheeks turned red... [That’s embarrassing...]

[Xiao Monarch is a famous figure in the realm... How could he be so shameless...]

[We are all ladies here... Humph!]

The ladies all felt embarrassed...

“Uh... Go on with whatever is between you two then... We... Hmm... We still have other business to take care of... We are off now... Ahem... Yes. We should go inside and deal with other important matters now...”

The ladies all left hastily.

Even the two little girls had hurriedly moved back to the gate, but they were still peeking behind the door.

“Come on in, idiot. Why are you still standing there?” Jun Yinglian looked at Ye Xiao with her cheeks red and turned around.

The two of them walked along to Jun Yinglian’s dwelling house.

“What the hell are you doing? Why are you showing such an ugly face again? Can’t you just make me proud one time?” Jun Yinglian said, with her arms across her chest.

Ouch! Ye Xiao was hurt for real this time.

Was Xiao Monarch really that ugly? Even Jun Yinglian disliked the look of him?

She shouldn’t! She loved Xiao Monarch! Why would she say that to Xiao Monarch?

“What? Are you playing mute now? Am I not right?” Jun Yinglian said while Ye Xiao looked like he was suffering constipation.

“How can I show up in the face of the young man Ye Xiao? You love Xiao Monarch! You are the one who claimed to stay unmarried for me! If I came here as a young man, what would others think about you? Would they simply congratulate you on finding your true love? Or would they call you a sl*t...” Ye Xiao sullenly said, “Didn’t you like the way I looked?”

“Hmm. Fine. You are right. I was careless!” Jun Yinglian sighed and said, “But just so you know, I don’t like your face. I love you, not the look of you. Even if you become uglier than this, I still love you... Well, however, now that you have a body of such a pretty young man... yet you still showed up with the ugly face... It was a bit distressing to look at it anyway.”

[Distressing?]

Ye Xiao was actually the one distressed, and he nearly shed tears.

[You are distressed? Come on, I am the one who should be distressed...]
