The Ethereal Domains

Chapter 908: His Lady Came For Revenge!

His Lady Came For Revenge! . . .

As Cha Eun Xiao reminisced about the image of Cha Eun Xiao and Li Wuliang, their laughter and camaraderie played out in his mind. A soft, wistful smile touched his lips as he gazed into the distance.

Saint Sunlight Sect's ambition to seize Sky Soul Mountain had its roots in the grievous fall of the formidable Fierce Blade, whose body had vanished into the precipice. The daunting silence surrounding his fate left Cha Eun Xiao anxious, wondering if his old friend had met an untimely end.

After all, back when he and Li Wuliang had been at the peak of their powers, they had struggled against the relentless winds that assailed them within the Sky Soul Precipice. It was particularly brutal for Li Wuliang, who had been critically wounded by the harrowing ordeal. The thought of his survival under such circumstances appeared grim.

As the evening sun descended below the horizon, Cha Eun Xiao embarked on a covert expedition into Sky Soul Mountain. With the stealthy grace of a feline, he moved through the shadows, accompanied by none other than Erhuo, a master of stealth.

Erhuo was, without a doubt, an unparalleled expert in the art of sneaking. An expert in the truest sense, but one with a feline silhouette.

As they ventured deeper into the mountain's forest, Erhuo suddenly warned Cha Eun Xiao in hushed tones. Acting swiftly, Cha Eun Xiao dropped to the ground and concealed himself behind a dense thicket, erasing any trace of his presence.

Just as he had successfully obscured himself, he felt an intense surge of qi rush overhead, nearly skimming his head. The force was palpably malevolent and driven by murderous intent, heading straight for the mountaintop. It appeared to carry the very clouds of the sky in its wake.

Cha Eun Xiao was seized by shock, and he watched as a slender figure darted towards the summit with astonishing speed. The woman was exquisite, her demeanor cold and composed, exuding a mixture of tranquility and unadulterated dread.

Astonishment washed over Cha Eun Xiao, leaving him stunned and momentarily immobilized. He struggled to voice his thoughts, but a tumultuous sea of emotions held him captive, and he found himself shedding tears.

This was his long-lost love, Jun Yinglian.

"Lian Lian!" he cried, forsaking stealth as he leapt into the air, utilizing the One Laughter in Skyline technique to catch up with her.

He knew that she wouldn't recognize him in his current form, but he couldn't abandon the chance to reach out to her.

"I want to tell you that I am Cha Eun Xiao."

"I want to assure you that I won't fail you again!"

"I want you to know that my feelings for you remain unchanged from our past life..."

His heart swelled with fervor and agony as his eyes brimmed with tears.

One Laughter in Skyline was a remarkable flying technique, yet Cha Eun Xiao remained significantly weaker than Jun Yinglian in his current state. Despite his fervent pursuit, she had vanished into the distance. In her wake, all he found were lifeless bodies belonging to Saint Sunlight Sect disciples.

If he had arrived earlier and stayed on Sky Soul Mountain, there was a high probability that Jun Yinglian would have added his name to the list of the fallen. Hidden among the disciples, he would not have survived her attack.

In the dense underbrush, he maintained the appearance of a Saint Sunlight Sect disciple, appearing as an unsuspecting observer. To have the opportunity to confront Jun Yinglian was to walk on the precipice of death. However, his delayed arrival had been fortuitous, sparing him a perilous encounter.

When Cha Eun Xiao eventually reached the mountaintop, he was greeted by a grisly scene of carnage—lifeless bodies sprawled on the ground, while broken walls bore witness to the fierce battle that had raged. Jun Yinglian was gone, but the atmosphere was permeated with an overwhelming sense of devastation.

He could only ponder the loss in silence, his heart heavy with sorrow.

Sky Soul Mountain had become a desolate mountain of death, where only the echo of the rolling, murderous qi lingered in the clouds overhead. Jun Yinglian, the embodiment of death, had left her mark on the world.

In the distance, the roiling clouds dispersed as a shadow flitted and vanished into the heavens. The lingering, ferocious presence of Jun Yinglian reverberated through the sky, like a furious dragon crying out.

Jun Yinglian had come and gone with nothing but her sword. In her wake, she left behind a trail of blood and corpses.

Cha Eun Xiao remained frozen in front of a stone stele. His heart was a turbulent sea of emotions, and he struggled to find the right words. Tears welled up in his eyes, and his nose tingled.

Taking a deep breath, he fought to quell the overwhelming emotions surging within him.

However, Cha Eun Xiao's attempts to suppress his emotions proved futile; they only intensified. The surging wave of grief and sorrow within him became overwhelming, and he could no longer contain it. With a heavy heart, he extended a finger to touch the inscribed stone stele and meticulously traced each word penned by Jun Yinglian. The ashes from the carving collected on his hand.

"Laughing... at all... heroes in the world," Cha Eun Xiao murmured, his gaze vacant, voice heavy with emotion.

"Lian Lian..." He closed his eyes and whispered her name, his heart heavy with longing.

Meanwhile, high above in the sky, Jun Yinglian moved forward with tears streaming down her blank face. As she initiated her relentless assault on the mountain, she heard a voice calling her "Lian Lian," a name only one person used to address her. Her heart ached, but she knew it could only be an illusion.

Cha Eun Xiao was no longer among the living; he had lost his life. She had chosen to begin her quest for vengeance at Sky Soul Mountain simply because it was on her path. It happened to be where everything had started.

"Is Xiao Xiao calling me? Does he know I'm seeking retribution for him now?" Jun Yinglian pondered as she pressed forward with her sword. "I've just begun to exact my vengeance, and he called my name... Xiao Xiao, you still care about me... Even if it was merely an illusion, I believe you know I'm avenging you, wherever your spirit may reside. We'll be reunited."

Although her expression was tinged with sadness, her determination shone through, and a small smile graced her beautiful face.

"I'm coming..." she vowed, wiping her tears with the back of her hand. "Wait for me!"

The clouds rolled apart as strong winds in the sky dried her tears. Without looking back, she passed through the clouds and departed.

Her sword had been drawn for the sake of revenge.

"Ye Xiao, I'm going to bring chaos to the world, and I won't stop until the sky is painted red with blood."

Sky Soul Precipice.

Cha Eun Xiao stood before the rolling clouds, immersed in memories of days long past.

It felt like the good old times.

The large, square-shaped rock still stood in its place, a relic of their drinking sessions. He and Li Wuliang, each on a side, used to drink and laugh together.

In his mind's eye, Cha Eun Xiao could see the Xiao Monarch dressed in white and the Fierce Blade in black, seated at that very rock, sharing laughter and teasing each other. The precipice loomed nearby, and strong winds billowed their white and black robes.

They were both heroes, gazing down upon the world.

Fierce Blade had conquered the world, while Xiao Monarch had mocked all heroes.

Together, they were an unstoppable force.

"Li Wuliang, how does it feel to be alone down there?" Cha Eun Xiao said with a heavy sigh. "You spent your entire life traveling. I bet you never imagined you'd end up as a solitary spirit, did you?"

He took a deep breath.

Erhuo, Cha Eun Xiao's feline companion, sat on the large rock, seemingly puzzled by its master's melancholy. It tilted its cute little head and occasionally grabbed its white tail in its mouth, performing somersaults.

Erhuo couldn't comprehend why Cha Eun Xiao was so despondent over a rock. To the feline, it was utterly baffling.

[Humans... what perplexing creatures], Erhuo thought. [First, he was sighing at the stone, and now he's sighing at this rock... I don't understand... Why is he so upset about some rocks? They're just ordinary rocks with no spiritual significance... Does he really need to treat them this way?]

"Meow? Meow, meow?" Erhuo grew impatient, its meows growing more insistent. It ceased performing somersaults, focusing on meowing.

Unexpectedly, as Erhuo began to vocalize its feline impatience, Cha Eun Xiao abruptly leaped off the precipice after standing still for some time.

Erhuo was utterly stunned.

[Holy heavens! I was only trying to urge you a little... Why did you do this? Are you trying to commit suicide? Holy... goodness... No...], Erhuo thought, alarmed. It followed its master's lead without a second thought, tail waving as it leaped off the precipice, emitting a chorus of meows.
