Realms In The Firmament
chapter-1144

Ye Xiao smiled. He didn't feel pissed at all. He said, "That space extension was a unique skill that my master taught me. One should be at least level five of Dao Origin Stage to operate it. I think I have told you this before. Never mind. It's your decision to make after all. Do you want me to continue?"

Jun Yinglian humphed and said, "Go on then! I would love to hear what you know!"

"After I did the two things in the cave, deep inside the cave, I started to operate my energy to cure your wounds. Those were not severe wounds though. We were so powerful back then, and those little wounds were like nothing for us. If I didn't help you, it might take a long time, but you would still recover eventually.

"The wound on the right side of your waist was the most difficult one to deal with though. It was a needle wound. That needle attack should have caused the least effective wound on you. What we needed to do was to pull out the needle and force your blood to run over it. However, that needle hit a tricky position on you, and it was stricken out by the unique method of West Hall. Half your body was numb, and you couldn't turn yourself. Your hands couldn't reach the wound…" Ye Xiao said, "Because of the moral parclose between a man and a woman, you wouldn't let me touch you."

Jun Yinglian blushed, and then she humphed.

"A few days later, you didn't get well. Instead, your spiritual qi ran slower. That was when we found the chronic poison on that needle. It had been hurting your Jing and Mai after a few days inside your body. You wanted to return to your sect for treatment, but that was not possible.

"You and me, we both knew that the needle was a unique weapon of West Hall. If somebody saw the needle, what we did would be revealed!

"In the end, you decided to let me pull the needle for you."

Ye Xiao said, "A man and a lady… Of course, you were anxious. After all, the needle was in an embarrassing position on you…"

Jun Yinglian blushed and gritted with her teeth.

"When I was pulling the needle for you, I accidentally found… that below the wound, there were three red moles on your waist, like three stars in a row. That was interesting…" Ye Xiao looked at Jun Yinglian.

Jun Yinglian's face was completely red. She scolded, "You lecher! You shameless prick! What nonsense are you saying!"

Ye Xiao was surprised. He said, "I am just trying to prove myself. What I said is merely a part of the sweet memory we privately share. How was that shameless? Besides, you decided to let me pull the needle. Well, I was thinking of forcing you if you insisted not to let me… It was urgent, and I couldn't let you die..."

"Stop that! Go on with what happened next!" Jun Yinglian stamped. Her eyes were already red.

"It took a long time to heal. Because the poison was vile, and we didn't find it in the first few days, it took eleven days for you and me to suppress the poison in your body with our spiritual qi together! It wasn't thoroughly cured, but you could at least move freely."

Jun Yinglian humphed.

Ye Xiao said, "On the thirteenth day, you abruptly asked me something. Do you still remember what you asked?"

Jun Yinglian coldly stared at him with her angry eyes.

"You asked… After all the years you spent in the realm, have you ever loved any women?"

"I answered… I am always traveling. A loner never has such dreams."

"Then you said… If a woman loves you, will you possibly love her back?"

Ye Xiao looked sullen when he said this.

Jun Yinglian coldly said, "Did I say it? Are you sure?"

Ye Xiao said, "Yes. You said it. I will never forget the conversation! After you said that, I idiotically answered… One man, one sword, travels the world. I don't dare to think of a family. If a lady takes a fancy to me, I will escape."

Jun Yinglian gritted her teeth and sneered.

"The next day, I didn't even say goodbye… After that, we hadn't seen each other for three years."

Ye Xiao sighed sorrowfully.

"Three years after, I went to Soul Broken Town to search for the Marvelous Blood Jade. I was in a fight with someone. I couldn't win the battle because the enemies had too many people. You showed up and fought on my side. We won a great victory." Ye Xiao said, "After that, you asked me… I have been thinking about you for a thousand days now. If your heart is warm, you should accept me."

Jun Yinglian humphed. It seemed her eyes were blurred, but then she looked cold in the eyes again.

"I said… There is a long journey ahead of me. I can't think of anything else other than cultivation.

"Then I left you again… without even saying goodbye…"

"We met and split up a few times. We were always in different places. Sky Ice Palace announced that their new Prime Master was Jun Yinglian. People in Qing-Yun Realm didn't know your name yet. A small figure suddenly became the Prime Master of a powerful sect in the world. It did arouse quite an uproar in the world." Ye Xiao sighed. "I went to see you secretly. I knew it was you. And it was."

"You changed your name to Jun Yinglian.

"Years after that, we occasionally met each other but were always in different places. Most of the time we couldn't be with each other. We never dared to define our relationship… It was such a pity. However, I didn't regret it, even when I was dying."

Ye Xiao made a long sigh, "I just felt sorry."

Jun Yinglian coldly stared at Ye Xiao and gently said, "You said you were Xiao Monarch. Fine. Let me ask you one thing. Since you didn't want to accept me when you were Xiao Monarch, why are you here? Why did you chase me? What do you want?"

Ye Xiao solemnly said, "I never said I don't want to accept you. I wanted to. I dreamed for it! But I couldn't… Because… It really was a difficult decision!"

When Jun Yinglian heard 'I wanted to. I dreamed for it!', it seemed her frosty face didn't look cold anymore. However, she kept seriously asking, "Of course you had a difficult decision to make! What about now? You don't need to make the difficult decision now, do you? Maybe Xiao Monarch had a difficult decision to make, but you don't! Am I correct?"

Ye Xiao nodded. "Indeed. I don't have that difficulty now."

Jun Yinglian angrily said, "What? Just like a game? You said Xiao Monarch had a difficult decision to make, yet you don't have one! How is that possible? How dare you claim to be Xiao Monarch! You are talking against your own theory! Nonsense!"

Ye Xiao was shocked. Then he smiled and said, "Oh, right. You don't know why it was a difficult decision for me yet!"

Jun Yinglian's eyes turned cold. She said, "Fine. Then tell me, what is it? Why do you say you don't have that difficulty anymore?"

Ye Xiao was surprised. He grumbled for a while and then made up his mind before saying, "Fine. I will tell you. I… It was the main martial art I cultivated… It was… Pure-Yang Martial Art. If I lost my virginity, I would be wasted. My Jing and Mai would be wrecked. I would become a piece of trash! You are an expert cultivator! Think about the details when we were staying together. You will realize the truth. You will know I am telling the truth here!

"Because of this, if I accepted you, I will ruin you!"

"What?"
