Realms In The Firmament

Ye Xiao was lost in thoughts for a while. That young man should be the next generation of Song Jue and his brothers. He was thinking maybe he should ignore what the young man did as respect to his Uncle Song.

[After all, I owe Song Jue so much. He has been taking care of me so well. He was even closer than my father Ye Nantian to me. If I start a fight against Song Clan’s people the first time I came, that would be inappropriate.]

He made a sigh and grabbed Han Bingxue’s arms to step back quietly.

However, even though Ye Xiao decided to step away considering the old days with Song Jue, the young man, the third young lord of Song Clan, didn’t quite agree to keep the peace.

He was a troublemaker!

The good horse of his suddenly neighed and stood up on two feet. It turned around and ran towards Ye Xiao and the other two. Over a dozen other calories turned around with him. They were coming back on them, in an overwhelming way.

However, no matter how overwhelming they thought they were, they were just nothing in Ye Xiao and his fellows’ eyes. What surprised them was what happened!

”What is this?” Han Bingxue was surprised, ”Do they know me?”

Ye Xiao was speechless. He scolded in a low voice, ”I mean… It’s fine that you think you are so attractive to all women. Can’t you stop your imagination when we are talking about men? What? Did you become homosexual now or something? If you are not, keep quiet. What place do you think we are in? They haven’t left this district for their whole lives. How could they know you, brother?”

Han Bingxue stared at Ye Xiao, with his eyes opened widely. He wanted to argue but couldn’t find anything to say. He humphed and frowned. ”Gosh… It starting to ache again…” The pain on his body started again.

The young lord was moving fast back to them. When his horse almost crashed the three, he finally reined. The horse neighed and stood up again over the three of them.

Ye Xiao’s eyes showed up with cold lights. He waved his sleeves and the rolling dust was cleared piled up a small mound beside him.

The young lord of Song Clan was doing something that really started to piss him off.

However, he still didn’t want to make any trouble. Otherwise, he wouldn’t wave the dust aside. He would return it to the young lord instead, giving the young lord the rudeness back!

”Oh?” The young lord smiled. His eyes were cold as he stared at Ye Xiao. ”You are a cultivator? Good. Well done. That was good. Well… are you… from outside?”

Ye Xiao frowned. He started to lose patience. ”What is it to do with you?”

”Hahahaha…” The Song Clan young lord laughed wildly. He suddenly stopped and spoke in a vicious and fierce way, ”You know what? No matter where you are from, you are in my place now. Everything could be my business as I wish! Do you understand?”

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but start to smile.

”Sometimes, life is helpless. No matter how much you want to stay away from troubles, trying to get away as far as you can, troubles just keep coming to get you.” Ye Xiao blandly smiled while staring at that young lord from Song Clan. ”It is such a sad and helpless thing.”

He truly felt helpless. He didn’t want to make any trouble, and he did have stepped back from it. It wasn’t a big deal to be humiliated a little bit for the sake of Song Jue.

However, this young lord of Song Clan was definitely courting for death.

He just didn’t want to let them go.

Ye Xiao felt embarrassed.

As expected, the young lord of Song Clan laughed out loud. He looked at Ye Xiao and said, ”Well, I didn’t see it. You talk with a full mouth of philosophy, don’t you? That’s good. Not bad. Come on. Tell me your name. Tell your Uncle Third the name of yours.”

He kept waving the whip while he was talking. He was smiling, but deep in his eyes, there was coldness.

[The three fxcking outlanders. You want to play in this place? Showing me no respect?]

[Tough? I don’t care how tough you are! Just stay as low as you can in front of me!]

[Let me show you one rule here. Don’t mess with the young lord of Song Clan!]

When things were getting pretty intense and a fight was about to be started, there was a clear voice sounded behind Ye Xiao loudly, ”Song Fei! You just want to make troubles for me! Why do you have to get it on these people? They are from other places. Don’t be mean. It’s not honorable to humiliate some outlanders, is it?”

That surprised Ye Xiao and the other two.

[Hmm. Something happened, huh? Isn’t this a surprise. A bright light in the dark?]

Ye Xiao, who wanted to avoid troubles, had been prepared for a big fight just a moment earlier, not to mention Xuan Bing and Han Bingxue who had really bad tempers. However, when everybody was ready to get a big fight, somebody else spoke.

[A third party appeared?]

[Wait! It seems we are the third party? We got implicated into this?]

They looked to the direction where the voice came. It was a young man wearing clothes of poor quality, carrying a medicine basket on the back. He walked out from behind Ye Xiao. His eyes looked clear and spirited. However, he was skinny. His face was in square shape though.

At the moment, he was glaring at Song Fei, the young man on the horse.

The young man was wearing normal clothes and had a weak cultivation capability. However, he was vigorous and full of courage. He stared at the young lord on the horse without a sense of fear on his face.

Ye Xiao, Xuan Bing, and Han Bingxue noticed something special though. That young man and Song Fei were wearing totally different clothes in different qualities. However, their faces looked similar. They must be related to each other!

They all stopped thinking of giving a lesson to that young stupid lord. They were curious. They wanted to know what was happening and what would happen next.

”Wait. Be patient. Let’s see what happens next.” It wasn’t Ye Xiao speaking. It was Xuan Bing.

Han Bingxue didn’t dare to say no. Ye Xiao had the same idea himself, so he agreed. However, Ye Xiao didn’t understand why Xuan Bing was showing such a good temper all of a sudden.

He didn’t stay with Xuan Bing for a long time. However, he knew that she had a bad temper like a man. He thought that she would definitely beat Song Fei up hard at least. However, she actually decided and even told the other two to stay patient and wait for what would happen next!

He didn’t know that Song Clan also had a special meaning for Bing’er. Ye Xiao was the most important person to Bing’er, but Song Jue was the second. This place was controlled by Song Clan. It was confirmed that the young lord was people of Song Clan. Xuan Bing had to be patient for Song Jue’s sake. That was reasonable.

[This is the home of Steward Song…]

Xuan Bing was lost in thoughts.
