Chapter 1142: Ruthless Heaven’s Will; Hopeful Mundane World!

Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy

Jun Yinglian was getting angrier and angrier as she thought deeply about it, but then the anger vanished all of a sudden… However, she was yet to calm down!

In the young man’s eyes, she saw tenderness, love, guilt, affection, pain, sorrow, happiness…

Almost all emotions could be found in those deep eyes.

They were a pair of determined eyes!

She was shocked, then she abruptly stopped rus.h.i.+ng forward.

– Hooo! –

Meanwhile, the hawk landed about ten meters ahead of her like an arrow. It cooed and swung its wings. It seemed it was gloating that it could catch up with Jun Yinglian, a dominant cultivator in the world.

Ye Xiao slowly got off the hawk.

He gently tapped Hawky’s head.

The hawk nodded and flew up to the sky again after making a few sounds…

[You don’t need me to stay. Okay. There is a vast mountain over there. I should go and check if there is anything valuable…]

…

Ye Xiao stood in front of Jun Yinglian. Suddenly, he was filled with all kinds of emotions. He felt like it had been forever since they last met each other. His lips started to quiver.

Jun Yinglian frowned and asked him, “Are you Young Lord Ye? What do you want? Is anything wrong that you have to chase after me in a hurry? Didn’t I make everything clear back there?”

Although she was not angry with him now, she didn’t want to mention the name Ye Xiao, which was exactly the same name as Xiao Monarch. She only called him Young Lord Ye or referred to him as Ye Nantian’s son.

For Jun Yinglian, the name Ye Xiao only belonged to one person!

Since Xiao Monarch was no longer alive, the name should disappear too!

No one deserved the same name as him!

…

“There is indeed something that I need to talk to you, Fairy.” Ye Xiao took a deep breath to calm himself down.

“Go ahead then,” Jun Yinglian spoke indifferently. As she spoke coldly, it sounded like she was driving everybody away.

Ye Xiao smiled bitterly and said, “Lian… Fairy Jun, I wonder if you have ever heard of a poem before.”

Jun Yinglian didn’t respond. She just waited for Ye Xiao to go on talking. She looked blank and indifferent. It seemed she was not interested in this conversation at all.

Ye Xiao continued, “It is a poem…”

“Ruthless heaven’s will promises no flat and smooth life path; In this hopeful mundane world, I would like to be lost in my own madness. I regret that I let you be solitary; If there is a next life, I promise I will accompany you to travel the world.”

Ye Xiao raised his head and stared at Jun Yinglian. His voice was shaking. “Fairy Jun, have you heard of this poem?”

Heard of it? She actually knew it with all her heart!

When Ye Xiao started to say the first line, Jung Yinglian began to shake. She raised up her head and stared at Ye Xiao’s face. When he finished, her eyes were already red and full of tears.

She was shaking like a delicate flower, but that was going to wither in the rainstorm at any second. Her lips became pale as tears s.h.i.+ned in her eyes. “Who are you?”

“Who am I?” Ye Xiao bitterly smiled and said, “Fairy Jun, how many people do you think know the poem?”

Jun Yinglian was shaking while biting her lips—she didn’t utter a single word.

Many people knew about the latter part of the poem. She had hung a picture with the two lines on it on the wall of her room. She used to read it every day.

A lot of people in Sky Ice Palace had seen it, including her sister disciples, maids, friends like Bing Xinyue…

They all knew the latter two lines.

However, there were only two people who knew the first part!

One was Jun Yinglian herself, while the other was Xiao Monarch!

Xiao Monarch, Ye Xiao!

Jun Yinglian had never forgotten the first part of the poem. She wouldn’t. The first part of the poem was much more important to her than the latter.

Because it was stated the reason why Ye Xiao rejected her!

‘Ruthless heaven’s will promises no flat and smooth life path.’

That was true. The heavens never showed mercy. Although everybody had the chance to get on the flat and smooth road, only one of a billion people could stay on the path for a lifetime. Those who had already entered a path should keep working in full effort to keep staying on it forever. That was a clear explanation.

‘In this hopeful mundane world, I would like to be lost in my own madness.’

It meant Xiao Monarch had the lady in his heart because, after all, they were all mortals in the mundane world. However, he chose to be a loner because that was the only way he could keep himself moving forward on the path to heaven’s nature…

‘I regret that I let you be solitary.’

He made such a decision, which broke her heart…

‘If there is a next life, I promise I will accompany you to travel the world.’

That was his sincere apology.

It should be something that would never happen.

Ye Xiao stared at Jun Yinglian sentimentally.

Jun Yinglian took a deep breath and, suddenly, sharp killing intent filled her eyes. “Who are you?”

“Who am I?” Ye Xiao smiled bitterly. “I am Ye Xiao.”

“I know your name… I am asking who you are!” Jun Yinglian was suddenly covered in an aura of murderous cold qi. Her beautiful hand was already placed on the handle of her sword. Her eyes were s.h.i.+ning with cold lights.

In fact, to kill a young man who had just reached Dao Origin Stage, she didn’t need to use a sword. However, she still put her hand on the sword because she was utterly furious at the moment!

In her heart, this Ye Xiao was not the Ye Xiao in her heart. There was something this new Ye Xiao should never know!

[Even though you have his name, you are not him!]

“Don’t you know who I am even after hearing what I said? I am Ye Xiao!” Ye Xiao stared at Jun Yinglian in the eyes. “Xiao Monarch, Ye Xiao!”

“Heh, heh…” Jun Yinglian laughed horribly and indifferently.

Two months earlier, she might choose to trust him. The poem was a secret between only Xiao Monarch and her. It was an absolute proof indeed!

However, she didn’t believe it now!

After that fake Xiao Monarch’s sneaky shows in the earlier days, she realized those guys were able to simulate Xiao Monarch in the voice, face, emotions, facial expression, behavior, even martial art… She nearly believed it even though she was the person who knew Xiao Monarch the best. She now thought somehow somebody knew everything about Xiao Monarch!

Now there was another!

She didn’t know why, but this young man knew the poem… Maybe somebody in Sky Ice Palace heard the poem when she was talking in a dream when she missed Ye Xiao.

That was possible!

She looked confused in the eyes, but from deep inside her eyes, a strong killing intent was rising up.

It was unstoppable!
