Realms In The Firmament

Ye Xiao walked out the door and saw Han Bingxue who was pacing around in front of his room. ”Boss, you are awake again? Are you okay? Do you feel sleepy?”

Ye Xiao touched his own head and spoke in confusion, ”Why? Why would I feel sleepy? What are you talking about?”

”Really? Are you fine? You are not sleepy?” Han Bingxue widely opened his eyes.

”Are you ill… I had a good sleep with a sweet dream. It doesn’t mean I want to sleep all the time!” Ye Xiao blushed and growled, ”I just had a wet dream, and that’s all. Do you really have to fuss?”

”Wet dream!” Han Bingxue’s eyeballs nearly popped out. ”What did you say? You had a wet dream? I have been staying outside the door all night! Why didn’t I hear anything? It doesn’t make sense!”

Ye Xiao was ashamed, ”Are you done? I am going to get your handsome little face f*cked!”

What Han Bingxue said proved that it was just a dream. If there were another person in the room, it certainly would make some big noise, and Han Bingxue should have known it. It destroyed the small hope that Ye Xiao had in the heart. He felt ashamed at the same time, so he started to talk nonsense.

”Stop! Stop it, please! I am not that type… Look at you, after rebirth, you suddenly started to like that special thing really… This is…” Han Bingxue raised both his hands to submit. He kept staring at Ye Xiao as if he had found new land in the world, with his eyes widely opened.

Ye Xiao knew that he had said something stupid, so he didn’t blame Han Bingxue. However, he felt annoyed being stared by Han Bingxue in that way. He coldly said, ”Are you done looking at me? Keep staring, and I will rip your clothes off. Let’s show yourself to everybody!”

”No, please. Boss, it’s a mistake. I am not looking at your face in any special way… I am…” It seemed he was trying to confirm something. Suddenly, he jumped up ten meters high and shouted with his eyeballs popped out, ”Holy hell! Boss, did you break through two levels within one night? Did you take aphrodisiac or what?”

Ye Xiao knew that he wronged Han Bingxue, but he was angry about what the latter said. Ye Xiao pretended to smile and said, ”What? Can’t I?”

Han Bingxue shook like he wanted to wake up from a dream, ”Holy heaven… You did take an aphrodisiac… Am I dreaming… As fast as that, you are going to catch up with me pretty soon, aren’t you…”

”Pah! I said I did break through two levels last night! I didn’t take any f*cking aphrodisiac! Do you really think I need that thing? Look at you, isn’t it a piece of cake to catch up with you?” Ye Xiao twisted the lips.

[Finally, it is not about the wey dream… How embarrassing…]

[I thought he had heard something last night. I did make quite a big noise last night. How come he didn’t hear a thing? I felt sore on the waist for real…]

Sometimes, people like to cheapen themselves. He didn’t want others to know his privacy, yet when he confirmed others didn’t know it, he would be surprised that nobody knew how great he was. Young Lord Ye must be the glaring one of this kind!

After breakfast, under Han Bingxue’s watch, Ye Xiao didn’t sleep.

”Boss, are we going today?” Han Bingxue asked.

”I need to think about it.” Ye Xiao smiled bitterly.

”Boss, I know what you are thinking. I know it is hard to accept what is happening.” Han Bingxue seriously said, ”But it is not a difficult problem to solve.”

”Oh? How to solve it?” Ye Xiao asked.

”In my opinion, we have to admit that you are occupying the body of the man’s son.” Han Bingxue said, ”Even though you are a different soul, you are still the same body. Your blood is still his blood. You are his son! You can’t deny it.”

”In other words, Uncle Ye, whom I haven’t met yet, is your father. Ye Clan is your clan.

”You are bonded in blood. No matter how great you will be, in what position you will be, you can’t erase the bond!

”Other than that, even for your own future in the martial world, you have to acknowledge him. If you don’t, you are an ungrateful son. The guilt in your heart will make a reverse impact on you. You can’t survive it. If cultivators can’t face their true heart with no guilt, they can never make great progress.”

”You have to pay the debt to your father.” He gave a conclusion, ”So, Boss, just face it.”

Ye Xiao smiled bitterly and blandly said, ”Of course I know that. I know every word you said. What is troubling me is something else. In fact, my problem was never what you said.”

He paused and then said, with a sense of bitterness in his eyes, ”We are brothers. You know Xiao Monarch is an orphan who was abandoned when he was just a baby. He had no family. He had no name…”

”I did feel the grudge in my heart. I thought it was unfair. However… Bingxue, what do I do if I meet my real parents one day? Who are my real parents? This or that? How do I choose?”

”Well…” Han Bingxue was shocked.

He honestly didn’t think of it.

”Two couples are all my parents?” Ye Xiao worriedly said, ”I don’t think they can accept it, can they? Am I this couple’s son, or the other’s? How ridiculous…”

Ye Xiao sighed. He didn’t know what else to say.

Han Bingxue widely opened his eyes. He was wordless too.

He had no idea what to say about such a complicated and strange situation.

”Maybe… your parents in your previous life… have passed away long ago…” After a long silence, Han Bingxue squeezed such words out of his head.

Ye Xiao speechlessly looked at Han Bingxue.

”Boss, think about it. You were an orphan in your previous life. You cultivated alone on the way to the top of level nine of Dao Origin Stage! How many years did it take you?” Han Bingxue actually felt confident about it, ”It was such a long time! Your parents were definitely not some influential figures. If they were, why would they abandon their own son? They had never tried to find you afterward! Since they were not some powerful figures… I guess they must have died a long time ago. Don’t you think?”

He felt that his theory was more and more reasonable. In the end, he concluded, ”So, you don’t need to worry about it.”

Ye Xiao wanted to rage up when he heard Han Bingxue saying his parents were dead but ended up just making a long sigh. He said, ”I know what you mean. I agree with what you said. But… When I think about them, I have that kind of feeling… I don’t know why… It is always quite clear.”

”I feel… that they are not dead!” Ye Xiao’s eyes were full of complexity. He said, ”It is such a strong idea. I can’t erase it. I can’t shake it. I don’t know why I have such steadfast thought.”
