Realms In The Firmament
chapter-1785

Xuan Bing looked quite worried at the moment.

Ye Xiao took a deep breath and said, “Bing’er, you are right, but I have my reasons.”

He frowned tight. Apparently, he was in deep thought.

Xuan Bing looked at Ye Xiao and felt painful for him.

He knew that there was a reason why Ye Xiao would make such stupid decisions.

If she knew something, he must know it too.

He knew it was wrong, but he still did it. He had to do it.

What surprised Xuan Bing the most was something else… Ye Xiao knew the consequence, but he still made such a choice. Why?

Staring at Ye Xiao’s face, Xuan Bing was enlightened. She remembered something, which had been a topic on the dinner table, a rumor to be talked about.

It scared Xuan Bing, and her face turned pale. She turned over and looked at Ye Xiao. “Master… The chiefs of the seven clans believed that you were the descendant of the Heaven’s Leaf after some special tests. Ye Yunduan’s appearance proved it false, but… The result of the test… Are you… Could it be… Are you connected to the Heaven’s Leaf?”

She knew Ye Xiao the most, and she followed Ye Xiao for the longest time. She was probably the closest to Ye Xiao. She knew everything about Ye Xiao, and that was why it scared her so much!

Xuan Bing started to add things together, and everything pointed to the same conclusion!

Ye Xiao bitterly smiled and said, “I don’t want to… According to what I have, I am afraid you are right. I told a lie, but it turns out to be the truth!”

Xuan Bing’s pretty face was twitched. She asked, “How many others know about this?”

Ye Xiao blandly smiled and bitterly said, “Even you have to figure it out from me. Who else would know?”

Xuan Bing slightly took a breath of relief. It wasn’t too bad if only she knew about it.

“Things could change…” Ye Xiao said, “After meeting the South Supremacy and the North Supremacy, I am not sure if there are predictors in the world… The more powerful you are, the broader and more profound views you have. I am so far away from the true supremacy of the world. There are too many things that I don’t know about.”

Xuan Bing frowned and thought for a while. She said, “What are you going to do?”

“What to do? I have no idea…” Ye Xiao closed his eyes and said, “Truth to be told… My heart is in a mess. I am lost.”

“You chose to save the seven old masters… You know they will follow the true Young Master Yunduan and leave you, don’t you? Are you going to give it to destiny?”

Ye Xiao said, “Isn’t it negative? What can I do anyway? I can’t do murder. I can’t be dishonorable like that!”

Xuan Bing looked fierce and cruel. “Why not? You are the blood of the Heaven’s Leaf. The Great Ye Clan will recognize you… It is an opportunity for you to take half of the great power!”

Ye Xiao was shocked, and he stayed silent for a while.

Xuan Bing said, “We can kill the Young Master Yunduan and his guards here… It will leave you no trouble.”

She took a deep breath and said, “I know… You don’t want to do it, but… It is the most efficient way to solve these problems. When they die, the seven clans will have to stand on your side. You have saved them all… After that, when the Great Ye Clan sends people over, you will have plenty of time to get things done.

“You are powerful. You can be well prepared before their men arrive. The seven clans will be loyal to you, the seven old masters, the members of the clans, and even the great ancestors of the clans!”

“You are excellent in saving lives. These men are severely injured. They need you. It is so easy to kill them.” Xuan Bing said, “You don’t need to actually do it. You can’t always bring people back from death after all. People will understand…

We should feel lucky. You are lucky that the fake Ye Yunduan showed up and did what he did. The seven old masters didn’t have time to meet the true Young Master Yunduan. It is a secret kept to ourselves that you have saved the real Young Master Yunduan. You saved their lives. They owe it, thanks to you. You don’t need to do anything unforgivable!”

Xuan Bing looked at Ye Xiao and cautiously said,

She knew Ye Xiao so much.

She knew what Ye Xiao would choose from his silence.

However, Ye Xiao’s choice was going to be so difficult!

She would like to try to change his mind. She didn’t care to be the vicious one. She couldn’t care less about her fame, because she only wanted the best for Ye Xiao!

Ye Xiao was expressionless.

He knew Xuan Bing was right. It was the easier way to the top of the world.

He admitted it. He couldn’t deny it!

All he needed was to kill those people, so it would be easy to gain the seven clans’ loyalty. The seven clans would become his own.

It was easy to kill those men at the moment. All it took was a few poison beads. They would eat anything Ye Xiao gave them. Nobody knew about their true identities only except Ye Xiao, Bing’er, Shuang, Han, and the Poison King.

The Great Ye Clan would never trace it down to blame Ye Xiao. They would blame Ye Changqing! That was all!

If the seven clans became the strong support for the Monarch’s Hall, the Monarch’s Hall would become one of the most powerful organizations in the world! Ye Xiao could get himself the ticket to the competition for the highest position in the world!

It was a great step up to the top!

It was a meteoric rise!
