1293 Disciple Brothers; No Regret! (2/2)

After the practical fight, they finally realized how horrible the most powerful cultivator in the realm was. They used to think that the two of them together could rival Wu Fa, but now they knew it was a ridiculous idea!

Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian were standing in front of Ye Xiao, willing to give up their lives for Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao made a long sigh.

”Well…” Zhan Yunfei didn't turn over to look at him and only spoke in a hoarse voice, ”Little disciple brother…”

Suddenly, he paused. He couldn't say anything more. In fact, he didn't know what to say!

Ye Chongxiao was his little disciple brother indeed, but Xiao Monarch was not. Zhan Yunfei should protect his disciple brother with his life, but should he do this for Xiao Monarch? When he called him little disciple brother again, it just didn't feel right.

Zhan Yunfei didn't know that Ye Xiao also had a complicated feeling in the heart. Now that he was exposed, Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian were still willing to give up their lives for him and call him little disciple brother… How rare! How commendable!

”Yes?” Ye Xiao answered in a low voice.

”You…” Zhan Yunfei's throat tightened. He said, ”Are you… Are you really Xiao Monarch?”

Ye Xiao slightly closed his eyes and said, ”That's right. I am.”

Zhan Yunfei trembled. Zhu Jiutian showed a complicated expression in the eyes as well.

”No wonder…” Zhan Yunfei smiled bitterly. ”If you were an ordinary young man, no matter how talented you were, it was impossible to reach such a height in cultivation. Your martial world experience, your battle skills, your intelligence… They all take a long time to develop. We just never paid attention to it… After all the years, I am still not as experienced and smart as I thought… Heh, heh…”

”I have my own difficulties too. It violated my will to join Cold Moon Palace, to be honest. However, after I became one of you, I never regretted it,” Ye Xiao spoke in a low voice.

”I see. I understand.” Zhan Yunfei said, ”Ye Xiao, no matter what, Zhu Jiutian and I, we owe you an apology.”

”Sorry!” He continued, ”We did what we did for the interest of our sect. However, it doesn't mean we were right.”

Ye Xiao didn't respond and only made a sigh in his mind.

”I know we should let go of the past for now as we are fighting this battle. However, no matter who you are, Xiao Monarch or Ye Chongxiao… I have to ask you one thing.” Zhan Yunfei asked, ”Do you admit that you are a disciple of Cold Moon Palace?”

Zhu Jiutian was stunned.

Ye Xiao closed his eyes and the images of everything he had been through since he returned to Qing-Yun Realm reflected in his mind.

He got the dan of the fish, guarded by many Cold Moon Palace disciples who had eventually died for his safety in the ten thousand miles trip to the sect… After he joined Cold Moon Palace, the Prime Master of the sect treated him well, and his three masters cared for him…

All the memories reflected in his sight.

How could he deny it?

”I do!” Ye Xiao spoke deeply and then added, ”As I said, it was not what I wanted, but I never regretted it. I didn't, I don't, and I will never regret it!”
