Parting Time! . . .
Yue Gongxue felt cold. She held her husband tight, but still couldn't stop shaking. She didn't continue the topic about Cha Eun Xiao.
"The baby you are carrying now…"
Afterward, they started to talk about the baby…
Yue Gongxue was distracted bit by bit, but she still couldn't stop the tears. Cha Nantian held her tight, but there was nothing more he could say.
Cha Eun Xiao had pulled back his spiritual mind when the conversation was over.
That night, Cha Eun Xiao spent the entire night watching the sky.
He didn't understand what he was thinking.
The previous sleepless night was because of the spiritual mind of the young Lord Cha, while this sleepless night was absolutely his own will!
He kept staring at the stars in the sky. At first, the stars were all around the sky, and seemingly in the blink of an eye, the sun was rising.
It was dawn.
Cha Eun Xiao hadn't moved a bit.
He didn't know what he was thinking, or what he should do.
He felt lost, hurt, consoled, and…
In the last several days before he left, he secretly went out of his room every night to feed some talented youngsters of the clan with his dan beads.
Cha Clan had Cha Nantian and Yue Gongxue, two hidden invincible cultivators. Nobody in the Qing-Yun Realm was able to become a threat to Cha Clan. After what Cha Eun Xiao had done, the clan became even more powerful than that. There were lots of dominant young people rising up in the clan. Cha Clan could at least last five thousand years after Cha Eun Xiao was gone.
[As a member of Cha Clan, I have to protect my clan… I hope what I have done can bring the clan eternity.]
[Maybe this is the only thing I can do… Maybe I am asking too much from it…]
[But this is my home…]
[This is my home!]
…
It was a sunny day.
It was the day some people left the Town of Cha. Cha Eun Xiao, Zhan Yunfei, Zhu Jiutian, Yue Shuang, and Yue Han would all go.
Cha Nantian led the people of Cha Clan to see them off.
The place was crowded.
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian were in cyan clothes, who looked calm and said goodbye to Cha Nantian and Yue Gongxue first.
Yue Shuang and Yue Han were the next.
Cha Nantian and Yue Gongxue spoke a lot to show their gratitude to the four people.
They went out the Cha Clan first and waited for Cha Eun Xiao outside.
After a while, Cha Eun Xiao walked out of his room to the main door, wearing all black.
He looked pretty calm and casual, and they didn't seem to stop for even a second.
Yue Gongxue and Cha Nantian looked at him.
At this moment, when they looked at Cha Eun Xiao, they felt one thing…
They felt that their son was so far away from them.
It seemed their son was never going to return from where he was going.
Yue Gongxue stared at Cha Eun Xiao's expressionless face. She felt pain in the heart. The pain made her face turn pale, and she was shaking.
Cha Eun Xiao smiled, calmly walked to Cha Nantian and Yue Gongxue, bowed, and said, "Father, Mother, I am leaving now."
Yue Gongxue kept biting her own lips to prevent tears from falling down.
Cha Nantian took a deep breath and smiled, "Xiao Xiao, follow your masters' instructions. Practice well. Don't wast too much time thinking of us. The way ahead of you is difficult. Remember to stay concentrated."
He looked rigid and weird on the face at the moment.
Cha Eun Xiao saw it, but he pretended he didn't and only nodded with respect.
He then walked to Yue Gongxue.
Yue Gongxue stared at him with her eyes blurred by tears for a while. Her lips were trembling, and her tears were running down. She couldn't say a word.
[Is this my son?]
[Is this still my son?]
[Is this really my son?]
[If he isn't, where is my son?]
[If he is…]
Her face was twisted… Her heart was hurting, full of reluctance, tenderness, fondness… It was complicated. Different emotions were shown on her face one after another. She seemed struggling. Cha Eun Xiao saw the questioning deeply hidden inside her eyes…
There was fear… and there was hate.
Cha Eun Xiao understood what was going on. He felt like he was hit heavily in the heart, and he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Even though his heart was in a disturbance, his excellent willpower made him stay calm in appearance. He said, "Mother, I am leaving now… Take care of yourself…"
Yue Gongxue trembled.
"Xiao Xiao…" Her lips were shaking.
Cha Eun Xiao looked at her with pain in his eyes.
[It is not mine because it never was. No matter what I did, I can never get what doesn't belong to me!]
He turned around and walked to the door.
When he stepped through the gate and arrived beside the other four, he turned around and looked lost in thoughts.
Suddenly, he got down on the knees and started to kowtow.
One, two, three…
He sincerely kowtowed nine times wholeheartedly. At the moment, everybody else was staring at him, who seemed to feel something, but actually understood nothing.
The world seemed to be sullen at this moment.
Nine times of kowtow was done. Cha Eun Xiao stood up, looked at Cha Nantian and Yue Gongxue with complicated expressions in his eyes, and finally, "Take care."
Cha Nantian stood there without knowing what to say. Yue Gongxue was standing like she had lost her soul. The two of them looked at Cha Eun Xiao as if they were looking at somebody else.
Cha Eun Xiao cracked a big smile on his pretty face, waved his hand, turned around, and left in big strides.
Everybody could feel the loneliness from the view of his back.
"Farewell!" Zhan Yunfei, Zhu Jiutian, Yue Shuang, and Yue Han all made a fist-and-palm solute, then turned around to catch up with Cha Eun Xiao.
They were moving fast. When they were about to take a turn and disappear, Yue Gongxue suddenly shouted like she was crazy.
"Xiao Xiao!" Her heart was broken.
Cha Eun Xiao stopped but didn't look back. However, he only stayed for one second, and then took the turn immediately.
He disappeared from her sight.
She could feel him behind the wall around the corner. She knew he didn't go far. She knew she could see her son if she ran over. However, a voice started to sound inside her head.
The voice was like a poisonous snake in her head, [Is he truly my son?]
[What if he isn't?]
Cha Eun Xiao was waiting around the corner just as she thought.
His face was twisted. His eyes were filled with yearning. He wanted it so much. However, Yue Gognxue stopped.
She didn't move any further.
Cha Eun Xiao knew she was there, and he also knew that she wouldn't come over any closer.
He took a deep breath and raised his head to look at the sky.
He raised his head so hard that his neck made a sound of cracking.
He stood there, feeling the loneliness.
He was alone.
At the moment, Yue Shuang and Yue Han both felt pain in the heart.
It felt like the abandoned, bullied, and helpless kid who gritted his teeth and buried everything in his own heart was back…
The poor wounded beggar was back…
When Cha Eun Xiao raised his head up staring at the sky, when the clouds appeared in his sight, the tears that filled his eyes were nearly out of the eyelids…
However, when he raised his head, the tears instantly evaporated… His eyes were bright and sharp again.
