Chapter 1122: What Happened?
Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
The ladies were emitting fierce qi while staring at Ye Xiao with two wide-opened eyes. "Bad brother, just say what you meant!"
"Right! What did you mean?"
Ye Xiao was totally blank. He felt like his head was going explode…
The four small hands of the two ladies grabbed his clothes. Their eyes were full of fierceness and tears. They were questioning him, denouncing his fault.
Ye Xiao kept a pair of eyes wide open for a while and finally submitted, "I… I was wrong…"
"Not that easy!"
"You are not going to get away from this by just admitting your fault!"
They shouted together!
They exclaimed together!
"What exactly do you want me to do then?"
…
The ladies blinked and couldn't think of anything they wanted him to do as a compensation.
Ye Xiao was smiling. He touched the two ladies' hairs in a spoiling way. "Girls, enough of the childish play. I promise you that no matter what happens, I will always talk to you first. How about that?"
"Do you mean it?" The sisters blinked their eyes. They were apparently touched.
"Absolutely!"
"Then… what about a palm to palm promise?"
"What palm to palm promise? That is too unceremonious! Let's do a finger hook promise!"
"Right! A finger hook promise! That is a formal promise!"
The two soft white tail fingers reached out to Ye Xiao…
Apparently, they had started the formal promise procedure...
Ye Xiao didn't mind. He casually reached out both his hands to pull the ladies' fingers. "Finger hook hang; ten thousand years no change!"
The three of them all felt touched.
They used to do the finger hook frequently after the girls started talking.
It was always the formal promise among the three of them!
"Brother, don't steal anymore. You will get beaten."
"Hmm. I won't anymore."
"Finger hook?"
"Sure."
What a shame! He never kept the word!
After the finger hook, the little beggar still had to steal whatever he needed to and got himself beaten up badly…
He could stop stealing for one or two days…
However, he had to steal something; otherwise, his sisters would die starving, so he would…
They were living in a city where all the citizens were poor. He just couldn't find a way to earn a living.
He wanted to have a proper job too. It would at least give him money for food…
However, nobody would hire a beggar who wasn't even strong enough to lift things up…
Nobody knew how much the little beggar had carried on his shoulders.
Three kids' lives, their hope for the present and the future!
Sometimes, they were hungry, while sometimes, they finally ate something. He would try to dig some wild leaves, pick some tree leaves and wild mushrooms, whether he had stolen something or not… He would collect everything that could fill their stomachs and put them beside the bed. He would save every bit of the food he had and store it…
He kept storing food because he wanted his two sisters to still have something to eat when he was beaten so hard that he passed out… He would store enough food for the girls to eat during the days he was conscious. When he was recovered, he would go steal and collect food again…
Now, the brother and sisters reunited!
An older brother and two younger sisters held each other again after so many years!
Nobody would imagine that the beggar and the two crippled baby girls he kept raising… would actually become dominant figures in Qing-Yun Realm!
The small figures who were stepped below people's feet finally rose up to the top. Anyone of them only needed to wave one hand to destroy the city entirely!
They were holding each other for a long time. In the end, Ye Xiao finally made a sigh. "The bloody heaven finally gave us a treat after all those years!"
The ladies gently nodded.
After they recognized Ye Xiao, they never left his arms.
They stayed in his arms even when they shouted at him and quarreled with him.
Deep in their hearts, they were afraid that they would lose their brother again if they let go of him.
"Bad brother!"
"Smelly brother!"
The ladies felt grudge in the heart, so they grumbled to vent the anger in their chests, although what they felt most was the pleasure of reunion.
When the three of them stayed together in the old days, the girls would always call the beggar dead brother, smelly brother, bad brother or something like that. However, after what they had been through, they never wanted to call him dead brother again!
They wouldn't mention the word, even if it were just a joke.
Yue Shuang and Yue Han finally understood what the word meant in the real world!
They didn't want to use that word on their brother again, not even the words like wounded, sick, and ill!
He could be bad or smelly, but never dead, ill, or sick!
He could never be bullied by others!
[Humph!]
[Who dares to bully my brother, I will put my life at risk to kill him!]
It was the only thought the ladies had in their heads. It was the only thing they cared!
…
Ye Nantian and the others were waiting for the result. They were all anxious.
Ye Xiao and the two murderous figures of Qiong-Hua Palace had gone to the practice area, and nobody had heard anything about them after.
Even Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian weren't able to hear anything from them.
It was reasonable though. The two of them had just recovered from the old wounds. They had only reached level nine of Dao Origin Stage, and it was already good enough to make them members of the first league of the powerful cultivators in Qing-Yun Realm. However, compared to the two ladies, who were on top of level nine of Dao Origin Stage, Zhan and Zhu were just weak. The ladies had blocked out the entire place, and Zhan and Zhu could never break in!
However, Han Bingxue was different. He was equal to the two ladies. He was strong enough to break through the area which was blocked by the two ladies together.
However, when he sneakily tried to get into there, he was surprisingly resisted by the joint force of three people!
He would feel reasonable if he was resisted by the joint force of the two ladies, however, he was surprised that there was a third power. When he noticed the resisting force, he recognized the third power. It was the weakest among the three, and it was apparently from Ye Xiao. He could easily identify it.
He was surprised but also relieved. As Ye Xiao was joining them on the resistance, it meant he was pretty safe inside!
Han Bingxue was relaxed, and he stopped trying anymore. As long as Ye Xiao was safe, there was nothing he should concern himself with. If he kept trying to get involved, things might go worse!
