Translator: RITF_Rain  Editor: Chrissy
Suddenly, everybody felt a bit sad for the two ladies.
Ye Xiao thought for a while and said, âThere is nothing we can do about it. Qing-Yun Realm is a world where bigger fist represents the law. Maybe cultivators donât have to worry much about making a living, but ordinary people are mostly poor. This is not as good as the Land of Han-Yang⌠Masters, you two were born in a time which was even worse than the present. People are living difficult lives. I think your parents should be reluctant to abandon you. Perhaps they had their reasons, such as having trouble to make enough money to raise youâŚâ
âIt is a constant occurrence in the worldâŚâ
He continued, âWe should live now and let go of the past, not to trouble ourselves in the sadness.â
The others all started to console the two ladies.
It was the second time for Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian to sit around the same table with the two ladies, but this time, they felt much more relaxed than the first time.
Zhan Yunfei sighed and said, âLittle disciple brother is right. Life isnât easy. I have seen too many families torn apart⌠Four hundred years ago, when I went to the lower world for traveling, a famine which only occurred once in a thousand years occurred there. That was hell.
âI saw people giving their children to others only because they couldnât afford to raise them. They didnât want them to die starving, so they considered it a good idea to send them to somebody elseâs family⌠They were lucky because they found people who had enough money to feed the children. At least, their kids were going to surviveâŚ
âMost of the people just threw the kids away⌠Kids couldnât work. They were only a burden to the family. People were in pain when they threw their kids away, but at least they didnât need to spare food for the kids. Instead, they might be able to save more food for the rest of the family⌠There are always tough choices to make in lifeâŚ
âWhen we saw what was happening to those people⌠we were saddened, but we canât help every one of them, can we? We didnât have the power to save them allâŚ
âThey always said that we were gods to them. However, we know that we arenât. With our power, we can destroy their world, but not save them all!
âWhen their land was too dry to plant grains, maybe we can crack the mountain and draw the river over to water their fields. However, what happened that time was flooding⌠There was a flood everywhere⌠It truly was difficult to helpâŚ
âAfter all the hard work, we eventually led the water away and ended the flood, and the people all got down in front of us to show their gratitude. However, I knew that we didnât really save them from the disaster!â
Zhu Jiutian sighed and said, âElder Shuang, Elder Han, you shouldnât be holding the grudge. Perhaps your family survived something terrible because you two were abandonedâŚâ
Yue Shuang was surprised. She said, âIf our family have to abandon us to survive⌠we would accept itâŚâ
Yue Han sneered, âWell, why us? Why didnât they throw away other kids? Why? Arenât we their children?â
âMaster Zhan was right. Life is always not easy. We are girls after all⌠and we were born disabledâŚâ Yue Shuang tried to smile and console her sister, âIt was the best option to abandon us, wasnât it? Besides, if we werenât abandoned, how did we become family with our brother afterward. If we didnât meet our brother, weâŚâ
âWell, are you telling me that it is our good luck to be abandoned?â Yue Han sneered, âIt is a shame that I havenât gotten any information about our family⌠If I know who they are⌠Humph!â
Zhan Yunfei bitterly smiled and said, âElders, forgive my interrupting. I am afraid it would be a rare chance that you two could meet your family again.â
Whoever abandoned their children must be in a rather unfortunate situation. Since they were living in such a difficult life, they should never be able to become a cultivator.
How did ordinary people live for hundreds of years?
Yue Han knew it, but she just had to say some harsh words to vent the grudge in her heart.
âAnyway, we owe our brother a lot for whatever we have achieved nowâŚâ Yue Shuang drank up and glanced at Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao was expressionless.
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian knew who their brother was, so they both felt terrified when the two ladies mentioned him. They prayed in the heart, [Please, sisters! Stay calm and sober. Donât go crazy. If you have to get drunk, donât kill us.]
After all, the ladiesâ brother, Xiao Monarch, and Cold Moon Palace were sworn enemies!
âOh, right. You havenât heard yet, have you? Xiao Monarch is back. He didnât truly die.â Ye Nantian looked at Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian, who looked like having constipation. Ye Nantian continued, âI guess I should let you know. It must be important for you two.â
âWhat? What⌠What did you just say?â Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian both stood up in shock. Their faces both turned dark.
They stood up so abruptly that the table nearly got lifted over.
âXiao Monarch is alive, and Master Fierce Blade, Li Wuliang is alive too.â Ye Nantian said, âOn our way back home, we saw them both with our eyes. We met Xiao Monarch years ago, so I know him. If he didnât show up and help us again this time, I am afraid the six of us would all die.â
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian were so astonished that their eyeballs nearly popped out. âHow is that possible?â
They both couldnât believe that Xiao Monarch was still live. They both witnessed his death after all.

Ye Nantian started to tell them everything about how Li Wuliang and Xiao Monarch helped them sweep off a bunch of superior cultivators. In the end, he looked at Ye Xiao and said, âIn fact, there was a third guy who was staying with the two heroes⌠The man is the Unique of the World, the Frost Sword, Han Bingxue, who showed up with Xiao Monarch in the forest⌠I think he looks at least eighty percent like the friend you brought back home not long ago, Xiao Xiao.â
Yue Shuang, Yue Han, and Ye Xiao were all shocked.
They all started to curse Han Bingxue in their minds. [F*cking pretentious stupid prick! Now you have made huge trouble because of your pretentiousness!]
