Chapter 589 – Planned for Others; Incited Someone (5) [Bonus Length]

The two how had left Sacred Land Zhongyuan did not rush on their way. As Cheng Xiao Xiao listened to Mo Xuanzun telling her about Valley of the Alchemists, their mystical cranes flew out of Qing’an Province.

After they had left Qing’an Province, they were still travelling at a regular speed. After all, it’d take a day’s time to get to Valley of the Alchemists and still a good portion of a day even if they rushed. As much, there wasn’t much reason to rush and might as well travel leisurely.

“Kill me. Please just kill me. I don’t want to stay here…”

“What kind of a place is this? We don’t want to stay here…”

“I am not a villager. I don’t know how to hunt. I don’t know how to farm. Why do I have to relocate here?”

“WOO WOO WOO…. Mom, I am hungry…”

“Must we really to try and survive in this place…?”

“Husband, can you find some food for the child? At this rate, we will all starve to death…”

A cacophony and pitiful voices could be heard. The two riding on the mystical cranes exchange a look and saw some dozens of silhouettes, males and females of different ages, looking disheveled next to a little creek in the forest not too far away from them.

There were merely several li ahead of them. The mystical cranes caught up to them quickly and Cheng Xiao Xiao was able to clearly see their faces and, as it turned out, they were…

The two of them exchanged another look again and both were fairly surprised!

These were the remainders of the Capital City Cheng’s. Why were they here? And that man with grey hair in the front of apparently the housemaster of the Cheng’s Cheng Yutang. Whatever happened to him?

Thinking about her own grandmother, Cheng Xiao Xiao was infuriated all over again. Thinking that all these people deserved what they got, she didn’t want to pay them too much attention. Whether these people live or die did not have a lot to do with her.

CHIRP CHIRP…

The complacent Xiao He suddenly chirped at that moment and alerted those beneath them. Cheng Xiao Xiao frowned slightly and gave Mo Xuanzun’s Xiao He a stare before she told hers to fly off.

“Cheng Xiao Xiao!!!”

A call from the top of the lungs. The ones beneath had already recognized who they were.

Cheng Xiao Xiao, who had planned on just taking off, couldn’t help but stopped after hearing them calling out for her. She turned around and looked at the person who looked like he was on his last leg and asked, “What?”

“……”

Looking intently at the one sitting on the mystical crane. The girl was in her early teens and looked at lot like the one that had always been on his mind. The two of them were equally graceful, classy, elegant, and refined. He had spent half of his life loving her and half of it hating her. By now, he could no longer tell whether he loved her more or hated her more or whether it was love or hate. He could no longer tell.

Looking at her in a trance, eyes rolled down the corners of his eyes. When he finally recollected himself, he was met with her cold and distant look. He felt that his heart was gripped tightly by an invisible hand and, with a hoarse voice, he asked, “I want to know if your grandmother is still alive!”

“What is she is? And what if she isn’t? You still think you have the rights to know?” Cheng Xiao Xiao has a sarcastic look on her. “What was done was done. There’s no pills for regret. When you chose to trust someone else other than your own wife, you have lost your rights to have her!

“Learn to have better observation in your next life and stop treating your own son as the b*stard child and the b*stard child as your son. You don’t deserve to have wife and kids!”

Having said that, Cheng Xiao Xiao told the mystical crane to fly up high and disappeared in front of them without so much as looking back.

“AARRGGGHH~~”

A heart-piercing scream came through the clouds and into Cheng Xiao Xiao’s ears. With a cold look, she could still hear someone spitting out blood and collapsing and many others shrieking.

With another blow like this, she didn’t think he’d be around for much longer.

She wondered how her grandmother would feel when she found out.

For reasons beyond understanding, Cheng Xiao Xiao felt bad for her grandmother for a brief moment there. A woman who had been suffering for dozens of years and, in the end, would not have someone who was genuine to her to spend the rest of her life with.

“Xiao Xiao, what are you thinking about?”

Mo Xuanzun saw all of her look and couldn’t help but asked, “Xiao Xiao, are you thinking about your grandmother?”

“Aye….” Cheng Xiao Xiao let out a long sigh and casted him a glance. She said softly, “Abacus, was I wrong to have said that to him? I’m afraid he won’t last much longer.”

“Xiao Xiao, everything that you’ve said were right. He is only reaping what he had sowed. Regardless of his fate, it has nothing to do with you. Don’t overthinking it!” said Mo Xuanzun sinerely.

“You are just comforting me!”

Cheng Xiao Xiao gave a bitter smile and said, “One way or another, he is my grandfather. Nobody can deny this fact. If anything happened to him because of me, I am not sure how I could face Grandma again in the future.”

“……”

“Whatever had happened back in the days, they are of the previous generation. They are the only ones who know how they feel. I have no idea whether Grandma will forgive him, what if….”

At that very moment, Cheng Xiao Xiao felt that she had wronged her grandmother. She shouldn’t have gotten involved in matters between the previous generation. She should let her grandmother handle it on her own.

“Xiao Xiao, don’t you worry. He won’t die so easily. He is a martial king after all. As distraught as he might be, he would still have dozens more years to go!”

“Ugh, alright.”

Because of the incident, the two were no longer in the mood to chitchat. The mystical cranes picked up their speed and the two of them were closer and closer to Valley of the Alchemists.
