Chapter 1143: Proof
Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
Jun Yinglian was trapped in the first idea. She started to fill a story with her imagination, believing that all of these was a fraud, a plot to take her life!
If it weren't a plot of the young man, even though he was the son of Ye Nantian and Yue Gongxue, she would still kill him because he attempted to fool her by simulating Xiao Monarch!
She would never tolerate such a humiliation, no matter what the young man intended to do. She never showed mercy to such things! She would never endure it!
Ye Xiao made a long sigh. He knew she didn't believe him., so he said, "That year… The Heaven's Terrace of Qing-Yun Realm appeared… Everybody went there to take a chance. That was Xiao Monarch and Jun Yinglian's first meeting place."
Jun Yinglian blandly said, "Many people know about this. Do you think you can convince me by this?"
"They had a fight." Ye Xiao said, "It lasted six hours."
Jun Yinglian stared at Ye Xiao with a pair of frosty eyes while her hand kept holding the sword.
"In the end, Xiao Monarch operated his Laughing Eight Blast… and his Pace Beyond Clouds… He attacked with his sword… Prime Master Jun was defeated."
Ye Xiao blandly said.
"The last sword attack went past Prime Master Jun's face, and cut off a strand of her hair…" Ye Xiao said, "That was why they met each other. Prime Master Jun knew that Xiao Monarch could easily cut her face, but he only cut a strand of her hair because he was nice to her."
"Even though they only met for the first time, Prime Master Jun always thought that she owed Xiao Monarch one favor." Ye Xiao slowly said, "Oh, right. She wasn't the Prime Master yet. She was only level five of Dao Origin Stage."
Jun Yinglian blandly looked at him and quietly listened to him.
"Then they split up…" Ye Xiao didn't hurry. He just kept speaking slowly, "Neither of them got lucky to have anything from the Heaven's Terrace that day. What they had was only a big fight… but they both had no idea how the fight would change both of their lives.
"Three years after that, Ye Xiao went to the Ghost Area alone. He happened to see Prime Master Jun fighting against the two superior cultivators of the West Hall… The two cultivators both liked Prime Master Jun. One of them was the son of the West Hall leader. He had been trying to earn her favor many times, but always failed, so he decided to force her.
"The two West Hall people were quite capable. Even though Prime Master Jun could defeat either of them, but she couldn't win a fight against them both. Ye Xiao stepped out in time and fought with Prime Master Jun, eventually killing the two guys with their swords. They ripped off every valuable object from the dead bodies and shared in a fifty-fifty cut.... Well, not really. After that, they burned the bodies. I guess it is still an unsettled case even now, isn't it?"
Jun Yinglian finally felt moved.
That was an absolute secret!
It was something only Jun Yinglian and Ye Xiao knew!
Back then, the son of the West Hall leader took a fancy to Jun Yinglian. He and his brother disciple ambushed her on the way. If Ye Xiao didn't show up and help her, she would have probably fallen into the men's hands.
However, when Ye Xiao joined her and killed the two guys, they both knew they had made a huge mistake. West Hall would never let go of them.
The best solution to the problem was to keep it a secret. That was why they burned the bodies and told nobody about it afterward!
All proof was buried with the dead!
They didn't dare to take away some precious objects of the dead men, just buried them, because those things might leak the secret.
They had done it so carefully that the West Hall had never found any trace after searching for over ten years. They kept searching like crazy, but they couldn't get anything. In the end, they had to give up on it.
Somebody else might know that poem of them, but this case was definitely something that only she and Xiao Monarch knew!
If anybody else knew it, she and Ye Xiao would have died in the West Hall's attack for a long time!
[Who is he then?]
[How does he know about this?]
[No matter what, it can be assured that this man will do no harm to me. He could have let the West Hall kill me easily since he knows that I have killed the West Hall leader's son.]
[Just like he said, it is the biggest unsettled case in Qing-Yun Realm. West Hall leader used to announce a warrant for all information about the murderer. He would kill the wrong ones instead of letting the right one go.]
"I know. Maybe it is still not convincing enough for you to put your trust on me. However… I also know that you were injured during that fight…" Ye Xiao slowly said.
Jun Yinglian's pale and indifferent face suddenly turned red.
Because she was injured, Ye Xiao had been taking care of her until she was recovered. He healed her.
Because of that, Jun Yinglian became more into Ye Xiao!
In fact, the story between them was exactly started at that moment!
"That's right. I was injured." Jun Yinglian took a deep breath and said, "My left leg was badly injured. I couldn't walk. If he didn't help me, I would never be able to survive that!"
Ye Xiao smiled and said, "I remember you were hit on the left shoulder, the right side of the waist, right hand, and some inner parts. However, your legs were unharmed."
Jun Yinglian didn't say a word. Her heart was beating faster.
[That was a trap, and he knew it. If this young man isn't him, how could he be so sure about the wounds on me… He is right about every injury he said…]
[Is he… Is he truly Ye Xiao?]
"After we took care of the two dead bodies, we found a covert cave where I started to cure you. Oh right, I operated some special technique. The interior of the cave was extended. I set up a misleading array outside the cave. I am not so powerful yet, so I am not able to do a good job in the space extension, but I am good at the array now…"
Ye Xiao looked at Jun YInglian and softly said, "You still remember it, don't you?"
Jun Yinglian didn't answer directly. She said blandly, "These are far from enough if you want to prove you are Xiao Monarch! If you can show me how you do a space extension, maybe I will try to believe you at some point. That array means nothing! Everybody beyond Dao Origin Stage and had a master can do it easily!"
