Realms In The Firmament

Ye Xiao understood that what he was doing was to bring the Monarch’s Hall into an extremely dangerous situation.

He clearly knew that if he stepped back a bit, things could end with a peaceful result.

The young man of the Great Ye Clan was a leader who would give in for his own men. That was honorable.

However, Ye Xiao just didn’t want to give in. He knew it was not a wise move, but he still refused to step back a bit.

Nobody had thought that Ye Xiao would give such a reaction to the young man’s kind compromise!

In fact, the more honorable and kind the young man was, the less Ye Xiao would like to give in!

There were those words in Ye Xiao’s mind.

‘Ye Clan’s Blood; Red Sky!’

‘The Bloodline Jade Plate!’

‘Humph!’

It was touching his nerve.

He knew what he was doing would lead to a horrible ending, but he decided not to give in!

He even pushed even harder!

‘I am not just a man who was abandoned! I can be something great!’

‘I, Ye Xiao, have suffered a lot! I suffered so much to make it here not to make a compromise to the so-called descendant of the Great Ye Clan!’

‘I am not stepping back! I am pushing forward!’

‘Everything counts in a limited life. If I can’t follow my heart, why would I march to greatness?’

Ye Xiao knew himself the best. He was not just stubborn. In fact, he was like a child, who had been mistreated, and now it was his time to take revenge!

‘I know what I should do to end this in the best way. I just don’t feel like doing it!’

‘I want to end this with the most efficient and easiest way!’

‘You have made me suffer. Don’t you decide my faith!’

‘The Great Ye Clan!’

‘Humph! The Great Ye Clan!’

Erhuo’s sharp claw casually touched the young man’s throat, and it quietly lied on the young man’s shoulder. It looked so adorable.

Everybody, especially the men on the young man’s side, was powerful enough to realize the danger. If they could fight, they would have done it in the beginning. Nobody had the confidence to save the young man from Erhuo’s sharp claw, so nobody dared to make a move.

The young man surely knew the best about the situation. He could clearly feel his life under the little cat’s control. As the claw moved, he died.

It was death!

Nobody could save him except the cat itself. Erhuo was more horrible than he could imagine. The young man doubted that even the five sky kings and the Great Master Ye together could save him from the kitty’s claw!

He was so confused.

He wasn’t confused about the cat. Sending out the cat was Ye Xiao’s only way to save himself, so it was understandable!

What confused him was that Ye Xiao obviously had other options to make now, and any other options could save his people from a deadly fight, yet he refused!

The young man was here to reveal Ye Xiao’s fake identity and take over the Seven Golden Lotuses back. He might try to take over the Monarch’s Hall as well, but he didn’t want to kill Ye Xiao.

Who was Ye Xiao? He was the prime leader of the Monarch’s Hall, but more importantly, he was the marvelous doctor of the Hall of Life and Death! He was a great dan-maker, who brought the supreme dan beads back to the Human Realm Upon Heavens. The young man knew that Ye Xiao made those dan beads himself, even though he told everybody the dan beads belonged to his clan!

Ye Xiao did not have a clan! The young man knew that the Great Ye Clan did not have any supreme dan beads like those!

For the young man, a great dan-maker like that was more important than the Seven Golden Lotuses. Anyone with profound views knew how important a great dan-maker was, especially for the future!

Ye Xiao was a weak cultivator, and it was a good thing for the young man. It would be easier to force Ye Xiao to work for him. The young man came fiercely, but he just wanted to show his prestige. He wanted Ye Xiao to be frightened so that he could recruit Ye Xiao!

As the young man expected, Ye Xiao should feel sorry and apologize to the real descendant of the Great Ye Clan. More importantly, Ye Xiao should pledge loyalty to the young man, and the young man would promise him great treatment. The two of them should become good friends, brothers, and create a bright future together!

Wasn’t that a great plan?

If Ye Xiao refused to join him, he could use the four clans to persuade Ye Xiao. When he took over the four clans, Ye Xiao’s organization would be too weak to have a say in any negotiation. The young man could accept that too!

The worst situation would be Ye Xiao refusing to admit failure, resulting for a fight to break out. The Monarch’s Hall was too weak to fight the Great Ye Clan after all, so it would be easy to destroy Ye Xiao’s force. In the end, Ye Xiao would be an isolated leader with no followers. Ye Xiao was a smart man, and he would surely pledge loyalty in the end!

In fact, the young man’s plan was thorough. He had seen all the possibilities. However, Erhuo was something he could never have thought of!

Because of Erhuo, things became worse than anybody could expect!

In fact, the young man still didn’t understand. Erhuo was a secret weapon that brought Ye Xiao the advantage in the conflict, so Ye Xiao didn’t need to play tough anymore. There were other options Ye Xiao could make to peacefully end this mess, yet Ye Xiao refused to do it! Why?

‘It doesn’t make sense.’

‘Why does Ye Xiao going to such extremes? This is a deadlock, but it won’t last long. Once the deadlock is broken, death won’t be avoided!’
