The Ethereal Domains

Chapter 1117: What Are You Doing?

What Are You Doing? . . .

Yue Shuang and Yue Han acted without hesitation, entering Cha Clan's residence behind Cha Eun Xiao.

Cha Nantian was taken aback and stood still for a moment.

He had never anticipated that his son could bring the two formidable individuals into their home with just a few words.

What surprised him even more was the sense that Cha Eun Xiao appeared to be orchestrating the entire situation, as if he had foreseen the pacing, the conversation, the unfolding events, and the potential outcomes.

Cha Eun Xiao was subtly taking control of the situation, and it brought about a delicate balance between the two sides. While this equilibrium might only endure for a limited time, it was still significant given the circumstances.

Furthermore, when he had encountered Cha Eun Xiao in the Kingdom of Chen, he had realized that his son had evolved into a shrewd, intelligent, and cautious individual. It was evident that Cha Eun Xiao had a well-thought-out plan from the moment he reappeared. He had confidence that Cha Eun Xiao could potentially resolve the situation.

"Father, you can wait outside with our people," Cha Eun Xiao, who was leading the way, suddenly turned to face Cha Nantian. "The two ladies are here for me. Let me have a private conversation with them. I will find a solution to the issue between the two parties."

Cha Nantian had faith in Cha Eun Xiao, but he couldn't help but worry. "Will you be safe?"

Cha Eun Xiao smiled and replied calmly, "They hold the power, and I am like the prey on the plate. If they have any ill intentions towards me or Cha Clan, do you think we can stop them? It would only be a futile loss of lives. We do not fear death, but we should not die in vain. You understand, don't you?"

Cha Nantian let out a deep sigh and said, "Very well." Then he added, "Xiao Xiao, remember, regardless of what happens, Cha Clan will never surrender. We would rather face death with honor."

He conveyed a resolute look in his eyes. After these words, he turned around and led the rest of their group back to the inner courtyard of the residence.

Cha Eun Xiao was deeply moved by his father's words.

"My clan may not be powerful," he thought.

"My father may not be influential."

"But they are willing to sacrifice everything for me."

"They would choose to die to protect me."

It was a profound promise.

Cha Eun Xiao watched Cha Nantian and the others depart silently. After a moment, he turned and spoke with an air of detachment, "Ladies, please follow me."

Then Cha Eun Xiao led the way once more.

Yue Shuang and Yue Han had intentions to speak but didn't find an opportunity. Instead, they silently followed Cha Eun Xiao.

A common sentiment resided in their hearts. "Since this young man arrived, even though he is still weak, he has seized the initiative from our hands."

The practice area of Cha Clan was empty. Once the busiest part of the clan, it now stood desolate. Only a dozen weapon racks dotted the several-acre space, which had fallen into a deathly silence.

The guards who should have been posted at the practice area were conspicuously absent.

The three of them entered this space. A cold wind blew through, causing yellow leaves to swirl and dance with the wind. The place felt eerily desolate.

Cha Eun Xiao led the way in silence, walking ahead.

"Cha Eun Xiao, what is the purpose of discussing matters in this location?" Yue Shuang asked in her customary, cold, and indifferent tone.

Cha Eun Xiao remained silent in response.

"There is no one else present," Yue Han stated, "so feel free to proceed with whatever you intend to do or say. The only reason we followed you is out of respect for your name."

"However," she continued, "understand that we do not respect you."

Cha Eun Xiao continued to walk ahead in silence, seemingly unconcerned with the actions of the two ladies.

[Regardless of what you do, I remain indifferent.]

That was the impression he conveyed.

Yue Shuang and Yue Han exchanged puzzled glances but continued following Cha Eun Xiao, who had moved nearly a hundred meters further ahead. They had little choice but to follow.

They were experiencing an unusual blend of awkwardness and irritation, compelled to keep moving despite their inner turmoil.

It was a peculiar yet fascinating experience for the two women.

In the entire world, nobody understood the two sisters better than Cha Eun Xiao did.

They held prominent positions in the martial world, excelled in cultivation, dominated the realm, and possessed pure hearts.

Yet, at their core, they were followers.

They rarely initiated actions, even in battle. When in the company of others, if no one initiated a conversation, they could maintain silence indefinitely.

"Take a seat," it appeared they had arrived at the location Cha Eun Xiao had in mind.

A stone table and chairs were provided for resting.

Cha Eun Xiao had already sat down and gestured for the ladies to do the same.

The two seats were arranged opposite to him, one on the left and the other on the right. They sat down, and the three of them resembled old friends who had finally reunited after a long separation.

There was no hostility or tension; only a sense of tranquility and peace.

Cha Eun Xiao continued to remain silent, his gaze fixed on the two ladies.

As time passed, Yue Shuang and Yue Han found it increasingly difficult to endure the silence, no matter how composed and indifferent they typically were.

[We are significant figures in Qiong-Hua Palace, just beneath Moon Queen in rank. Do you think we would follow a stranger's lead without reason?]

[We followed you this far out of respect for your reputation.]

[Yet you squander time in silence. That's something we cannot accept.]

[We showed you respect, and now you seem to be getting arrogant. That's not a wise move!]

"Speak. What do you wish to convey?" Yue Shuang, for the first time, spoke forcefully, displaying signs of annoyance. "We came here to resolve this matter, not to sit in silence with you."

Cha Eun Xiao still wore a calm, mild smile.

Yue Han was also visibly annoyed. "Why are you smiling? What's so amusing?"

The two women shared a strange sentiment at that moment. [It appears we can't control our emotions when we're in the presence of this young lord of Cha Clan.]
