Chapter 1281: Shadow
Shadow . . .
"It means we are improved. We can see more now. However, Xiao Xiao is much more powerful than us, so we can see the things that he has been hiding from us, but cannot see through him clearly yet," Cha Nantian said.
Yue Gongxue made a long sigh, "The kid has so many secrets…"
"So what? He is still our son, isn\'t he?" Cha Nantian blandly said, "Xue-Er, you are overthinking it. You don\'t need to… I raised him up by myself. Our son has created lots of miracles since he was a child."
He said, "I don\'t think it is special. You have only met him for a few days. It is reasonable that you don\'t know him that well. You will get used to it sooner or later."
Yue Gongxue shook her head and argued, "I am not… It isn\'t…" After mumbling for a while, she said, "Nantian, there is more. The more I spent time with the kid, the more I felt… that he is actually a little bit similar to Xiao Monarch… who showed up in the forest the other day."
Cha Nantian was shocked, and he sat up abruptly.
He was expressionless as if he got bitten by a poisonous snake.
He stared at Yue Gongxue in astonishment.
Cha Eun Xiao, who had been listening to the couple, slowly closed his eyes.
…
"You felt it too, didn\'t you?" Yue Gongxue looked at Cha Nantian. "You just didn\'t say it. Am I right? You believe it was an illusion. Don\'t you?"
Yue Gongxue was shaking…
Cha Nantian looked hesitant but calmed down soon. He spoke peacefully, "Don\'t overthink. What you think is impossible. It just can\'t happen in real life. Just stop wasting time on it!"
Yue Gongxue made a sigh, with tears running in her eyelids.
"You said that because you were busy in the war, Xiao Xiao used to be a foppish kid before he was sixteen… I know you spoiled him too much… However, four years ago, you said Xiao Xiao was sick and nearly died… You were in the north battle, and Song Jue had lost his cultivation… Xiao Xiao was surprisingly cured… All the miracles you mentioned happened after he was cured that time. We both know that he didn\'t have a good condition to cultivate, yet within two years, he became so powerful that he could even ascend to Qing-Yun Realm… Didn\'t you tell me so?"
Yue Gongxue widely opened her eyes and said, "Wasn\'t it… Wasn\'t it about the time when Xiao Monarch died?
"Besides, about us… Qiong-Hua Palace sent people over twice. Cheng Bingmei hates me so deeply that she wouldn\'t care if you had reached Dao Origin Stage as you promised. Xiao Xiao changed the situation. He became a disciple of Cold Moon Palace and used his connection to make Cheng Bingmei give in.
"Maybe he was lucky to have some strong connections, but what about the second time?
"The two elders of Qiong-Hua Palace came to Cha Clan. I know the ladies. They would start a fight without hesitation even facing the great elder of Misty Cloud Palace, Xuan Bing. However, when they talked to Xiao Xiao, they changed! They actually started to support us! Why? Persuasion? Yue Shuang and Yue Han are not someone you can easily convince!
"If the two ladies helped us because of their kindness, why didn\'t they help us eighteen years ago?
"They never said a word for us, yet now are supporting us in full power?"
Yue Gongxue said, "The only explanation… Just think about it… They are Xiao Monarch\'s sisters…
"Why didn\'t they ever say that they wanted to take revenge for their brother? Think about their personalities. They would never stay silent. The only explanation is… that they didn\'t know Xiao Monarch was their brother! After they met Xiao Xiao in the Town of Cha, things changed. They started to tell others that they were Xiao Monarch\'s sisters, and the three factions were their sworn enemies…
"I have been in Qiong-Hua Palace for so many years, yet I have never heard that the two elders were Xiao Monarch\'s sisters. If they knew Xiao Monarch was their brother, how could they stand aside when Xiao Monarch was at war against the three factions? They would definitely stand on his side!
"Xiao Monarch is such a powerful cultivator! All sects would love to have him as their own man. Qiong-Hua Palace would like to ally with him, especially when he was the two elders\' brother!
"Think about the fights in the Dark Forest. The two elders were nice to us indeed. They have done the best they could to protect us. It is true. At that time, we both know that the enemies were too powerful, however, they didn\'t leave us even though they couldn\'t win the battle. Let\'s be honest. It was not a difficult thing for the two elders to make their way out, and we would never say a word to complain. Why didn\'t they do it?
"When Li Wuliang showed up, things became more confusing. I don\'t understand why he would help us. We were in a deadly situation. Li Wuliang could save us for some time, but if Xiao Monarch and Han Bingxue didn\'t show up, Li Wuliang would be killed too! However, he also helped us in full power. When he appeared to join the battle, apparently, he didn\'t know Xiao Monarch and Han Bingxue would arrive…
"And the man in white clothes that you mentioned earlier. You said it yourself that he looked similar to Han Bingxue… Perhaps he is Han Bingxue! Han Bingxue, Xiao Monarch\'s loyal brother!
"When he came to the Town of Cha, didn\'t he always call Xiao Xiao… Boss?
"Just think about it. All of it. Everything is pointing to one truth… I think you are clever enough to get it. You just don\'t want to break the cloud of mist… You don\'t want to face it…"
As Yue Gongxue talked, her tears kept running down her cheeks…
Cha Nantian\'s face expression became more and more complicated.
Yue Gongxue was right. He had thought about it. Who was Cha Nantian? A courageous and intelligent war god! There was nothing in the world that he couldn\'t figure out!
However, he couldn\'t bear suspecting his own son!
Cha Eun Xiao had done so much for the family, for Cha Nantian, for Yue Gongxue. How could he suspect Cha Eun Xiao?
However, Yue Gongxue had brought the problem on the table. What should he say to respond?
"Why do you have to think so much? Listen to yourself. It\'s a mess. Let\'s stop bothering ourselves in these meaningless questions. Xiao Xiao is our son. He is always our son…" Cha Nantian tried to console her, "Xue-Er, you are overthinking."
So he said, yet it seemed his eyes looked dull.
There was a shadow hidden deep in his eyes, which would never be gone.
