We Were Wrong! . . .
Cha Nantian had certainly witnessed grandiose events on numerous occasions. After all, who was Cha Nantian? He was a prominent figure in the Land of Han-Yang, holding a position equivalent to that of a king. While his cultivation might have been considered ordinary in the Qing-Yun Realm, he was second to none in various other aspects. However...
The events of the day had given rise to one bizarre situation after another. Things had been exceptionally unusual so far.
No, unusual was not the most fitting word. It was more accurate to describe it as magical. It defied all logical reasoning.
Cha Nantian found himself at a loss for words. It seemed that whatever he said would be wrong. "I suppose I should just remain silent."
"We've come to realize that we were mistaken. The main reason is that our Moon Queen once made a promise to Cha Clan in the past. Qiong-Hua Palace must uphold that promise," Yue Shuang stated solemnly.
It was indeed a valid reason.
"That's correct. Violating one's own promise carries a heavy burden of guilt, something a cultivator should never do," Yue Han nodded in agreement.
"Thanks to Lord Cha, he enlightened us. He prevented us from being burdened by guilt," Yue Shuang added, sounding admiring.
A few individuals promptly passed out.
"It's not that I can't comprehend it, but the world has changed so rapidly."
"It's not that I can't endure it, but everything I've heard has been incredibly shocking and unbelievable, coming from an influential figure."
Cha Nantian could tolerate it to an extent, but his face grew pallid, and he trembled.
He simply couldn't fathom it.
"What's going on?"
He was certain that his son must have said or done something that led to this drastic change.
This baffled him even more.
"A young man like you... how did you negotiate this when you're not privy to the details of the past events? How did you convince them? Especially the two ladies!"
"You're much younger than them... You come from a completely different background... You're much weaker than them..."
"Most importantly... do you know who they are? They are the last two people in the martial world to be reasonable with others... They are inherently unreasonable individuals. How did you negotiate with them?"
"You can't defeat them in combat; you can't persuade them either..."
"There's no way you can make them capitulate... Yet... they are capitulating... How did you manage it?"
Suddenly, Cha Nantian was left speechless due to the shock and astonishment. He was so taken aback that he couldn't even feel elation when the ladies decided to spare Cha Clan.
He stood there, rigid and numb.
"Therefore... I, Yue Shuang..."
"I, Yue Han!"
"We make a few announcements in the name of Qiong-Hua Palace!" Yue Shuang proclaimed the first announcement, which left everyone else stunned.
"Cha Nantian surely had seen big scenes quite often. Who was Cha Nantian? A significant figure in the Land of Han-Yang who was in an equal position with a king. His cultivation might be just regular in Qing-Yun Realm, but he wasn't weaker than anybody in other aspects. However...
What happened during the day raised one wave after another. Things had been so weird so far!
No. Weird was not the perfect word. It should be magical! It was against logic!
Cha Nantian honestly didn't know what to say. It seemed he would be wrong no matter what he said. [I guess I should just keep my mouth shut!]
'We realized that we were wrong. The biggest reason is that our Moon Queen had made the promise to Cha Clan in the old days. Qiong-Hua Palace should keep the promise,' Yue Shuang seriously said.
Hmm. It was a fair reason!
'That's right. Who violates one's promise bears guilt. It is what a cultivator should never do!' Yue Han nodded to agree.
'Thanks to Lord Cha, we were enlightened. He has kept us from falling into the situation that we would be haunted by guilt!' Yue Shuang sounded admiring.
- Puff, puff, puff... -
Some people directly passed out.
[Not that I can't understand, but the world just changed so fast!]
[Not that I can't endure it, but... what I have been hearing are all shocking, unbelievable, and magical words from an influential figure.]
Cha Nantian could still endure it, but his face turned pale, and he was trembling.
He honestly couldn't understand it.
[What is going on?]
He was sure his son must have said something or done something which led to the current change.
That confused him evermore!
[A kid like you... how did you talk it over since you don't know the details about what has happened in the past? How is it possible for you to convince others? Especially convince the two ladies!]
[You are so much younger than them... You are in such a different background from them... You are so much weaker than them...]
[Most importantly... Who do you think they are? They are the last two persons in the martial world who would be reasonable to others... They are merely unreasonable people. How did you talk it over against them?]
[You can't defeat them in a fight; you can't convince them either...]
[There is no way you can make them submit... Yet... they are submitting... How did you do it?]
Suddenly, Cha Nantian froze because of the shock, astonishment... He even didn't feel happy when the ladies decided to spare Cha Clan because he was too stunned!
He just stood there, numb and stiff.
'Therefore... I, Yue Shuang...'
'I, Yue Han!'
'We announced a few things, in the name of Qiong-Hua Palace!' Yue Shuang looked sacred and solemn.
'Listen up, everybody!' Yue Han added.
'First... Cha Nantian and Yue Gongxue fell in love. It was the nature of a man and a woman. It ought to be blessed,' Yue Shuang announced the first thing, which astonished all the others."
