Ye Xiao smiled bitterly. âIn fact, your grandson was dead by then. He was poisoned⌠Otherwise, I would have been absorbed by him, not take over his body instead. However, I didnât know what was happening. I just woke up and saw the sky of another worldâŚ
âThe poison in his body was incurable in the Land of Han-Yang. I activated the last bit of my soul power to wipe the poison out. The body belonged to the weak, which meant I was a shrimp with almost no cultivation capability.
âIt wasnât the worst after all. I became the Xiao Monarch from nothing. So I decided to restart as a man with nothing, cultivate again, climb again, rise againâŚâ
He looked up and stared at the Moon Queen. âIf I have a choice, I donât want to be somebody elseâs son. I am Ye Xiao! Xiao Monarch Ye Xiao! Do you understand?â
The Moon Queen was stunned. She knew what he was saying, but she didnât know if she understood it.
âI have been living my second life. Step by step, I climbed up faster than I expected⌠At the same time, I felt the love from Ye Nantian to his son deeper and deeper. I felt it. It is on me⌠In the end, I accepted the family, to be the young man they wantedâŚ
âAs I said, if I can choose, I would choose not to enter this body. I didnât kill Ye Xiao⌠I took over the body, and I took over the love of a father. As Xiao Monarch, I have longed for love in a family. I can never repay the debt!â
Ye Xiao smiled bitterly. âWhen I accepted them as my parents, when I was ready to live as their new person⌠I was exposed⌠They are smart and intelligent peopleâŚ
âI know they are feeling extreme pain in the hearts⌠They thought I killed their son. They thought I robbed the body from their son and lied to them in their sonâs body. No matter how much I have done, nothing is more important than the fact that I have replaced their real sonâŚâ
He smiled. âDo you know? I am an orphan. I donât have parents⌠I have been living alone for a long time. I wanted to have a family so bad! Now I do⌠I am afraid⌠I donât want to lose themâŚ
âI am going to lose them after all. I wonât get another chance like this!â
Ye Xiao stared at the Moon Queen. âI have answered your question. I donât think I owe anybody anything.
âHowever, I do have a few questions myself. I donât think anybody can give me an answer. Can you?
âI donât understand. I have done something which followed my true feelings. I have done so much to get them together again. If not for me, Ye Nantian wouldnât be able to return to the Qing-Yun Realm. If not for me, Ye Clan would have been destroyed. If not for me, Yue Gongxue would still be imprisoned. If not for me⌠I⌠What am I talking about? These are what I should do. I didnât mean⌠I didnât mean it⌠I just donât understand⌠Why? Why do they only see the fact that I have replaced their son, but didnât see all those I did as their son?â
Ye Xiao laughed bitterly and fiercely said, âWhat should I do?â
The Moon Queen sighed. She didnât know what to say.
The body was her grandson.
Perhaps the soul was inside him for some time but left in the end.
She couldnât accept Ye Xiao as her grandson, but she couldnât deny that he was her grandson!
She couldnât deny what Xiao Monarch had done for Ye Nantian and Yue Gongxue. If not for this young man, things would go along the old trackâYe Clan destroyed, Yue Gongxue imprisoned, Ye Nantian expelled out the realmâŚ
If Ye Xiao were still the useless young man, he wouldnât be able to do any of the things Xiao Monarch had done!
She didnât know what to say.
Ye Xiao and the Moon Queen both spoke the same word and stopped at the same time.
They looked at each other and fell back to the awkward silence.
There was no hate, no grudge, and no doubt in the Moon Queenâs eyes anymore, but Ye Xiao was still just a stranger to her!
Ye Xiao looked at the Moon Queen, who was his grandmother, and he felt pain in the heart. However, he was enlightened.
âThere is nothing afterward.â Ye Xiao peacefully stood up as if a bleeding wound suddenly disappeared. He turned around and blandly said, âMy parents⌠Ahem⌠They have a new kid⌠They will have their own son.â
âThe kid will be born very soon.â
He walked out in a stride, his voice sounding, âI⌠maybe⌠perhaps⌠I am sure there is no afterward for meâŚâ
The Moon Queen was stunned. She watched him walk away farther and farther.
The shadow of his back looked lonely.
It felt like he was abandoned.
She wanted to comfort him, but she couldnât say a word.
She understood how Ye Xiao felt.
He was full-heartedly loving Ye Clan and his parents. The Moon Queen knew it. She believed it.
However, she didnât know where he should be in this relationship.
The reality was cruel. Even though Ye Xiao wanted to be Yue Gongxueâs son, did Yue Gongxue accept him as her real son?
The Moon Queen knew her daughter so well. Even though Yue Gongxue could accept the fact that Ye Xiao took over her sonâs body, she wouldnât accept him as her son.
When the Moon Queen knew that the young man in front of her was her grandsonâs body, she couldnât feel any closer to him. All she could feel was cold and doubt.

The cold and doubt only hurt him even more.
He had lost hope on this.
It was a problem nobody could solve!
