They were each other’s support, they were each other’s only consolation, and they were each other’s reason to live on.
The two girls suffered both natural and artificial wounds. They had been weak. They couldn’t talk even when they were already two years old. When they were three, they could only crawl on the bed. The legs which were wounded were crippled.
When they were four, they learned the first word, and it was the only word they could say.
Ye Xiao smiled and blandly said,
The word… Brother.
Yue Shuang and Yue Han’s eyes were filled with tears.
They looked at Ye Xiao with sadness, surprise, confusion and…
It was a complicated expression.
They stared at Ye Xiao and quietly listened to him.
They could even hear their hearts beating more and more heavily as if they were going to pop out of the chests!
One day… the two little girls finally stood up and talked.
Ye Xiao looked calm and sullen.
The beggar was excited. He stole lots of food to celebrate. The girls finally stood up and talked. They started to speak to their brother…
That day… at first, they were enjoying the food, they were so happy… but… maybe the little beggar was too greedy. He had stolen too much, so people came… In the end, the little beggar’s arms were broken by those people… The girls cried with tears so loudly…
Yue Shuang and Yue Han finally shed tears while staring at Ye Xiao.
Their pretty faces looked both sad and happy.
The beggar had his arms injured, however, he still tried so hard to stay up. He knew that he couldn’t lie down. If he lied down, he would die, and the two little sisters would die soon after. The little beggar had been through a tough year. Just like that, the three kids finally got each other, lived by luck, fought for survival…
Ye Xiao gently looked at Yue Shuang and Yue Han.
It was the girls’ birthday… The beggar stole several steamed buns to celebrate their birthday. He figured he should at least let his sisters have a full meal…
Ye Xiao sighed.
But he was shocked when he found the girls gone…
He didn’t know where the girls went. Maybe they were taken away by somebody…
He went out and looked for them like a madman, but no traces were found. The girls disappeared…
After many years, he still hadn’t heard from them.
Ye Xiao sadly said,
… He just couldn’t find them. The girls couldn’t find their brother either.
They didn’t even know what their brother’s name was.
They always called him brother.
One day, after all the things that happened in his life, the little beggar became a superior cultivator who shocked the world… He happened to see the twin sisters fighting against somebody.
It was not a good day. It was a stormy day.
The sisters were not weak, but they were in a negative position.
Ye Xiao blandly said,
Their opponents were not that powerful, and their opponents having more people didn’t really matter. Although they were already two powerful cultivators, when it was raining heavily, they would feel sore in where they used to be injured. The soreness interrupted their attacks. They couldn’t fully operate their full power. They couldn’t cooperate in a perfect rhythm…
The little beggar had grown up. He had achieved a lot in cultivation already. He started to think, whether the two ladies were the sisters he had missed for the years…
Ye Xiao took a deep breath and said,
He decided to help them, whether they were his sisters or not, they must be getting through the same trouble as his sisters would have… He figured he should help them.
He had already reached the top of the cultivation level in this world. As he started the attack, the fight was ended.
Then he left.
At that time, he was facing a hell of a crisis…
He didn’t want to ask the two ladies who they were because he didn’t want to be disappointed. Besides, if they were his dear sisters, he would draw great danger to them. That was why he decided to leave right away and not to contact the two ladies!
Ye Xiao blandly said,
He wanted to take revenge for his brother… but not to draw anybody else to dangers.
He had followed the two sisters for a while though. From what he heard from the ladies’ conversation, he confirmed that the two ladies were exactly his lost sisters. However, he was… in great danger at that time…
He left with his sword while feeling relieved. His two sisters were living good lives. They were two influential cultivators. They had a great force supporting them, and people wouldn’t be able to bully the two girls now…
He was satisfied.
The girls never gave up on searching their brother, but… he knew he was going to die soon. He didn’t want his sisters to be involved.
The grown-up beggar just left. Three months after, he died in a hunt, both physically and mentally. He died for his brother.
Ye Xiao blandly smiled,
The story should be ended by then…
Yue Shuang and Yue Han were sobbing.
No! It can’t just end like that! No, it can’t!
Yue Shuang was weeping and trembling.
No wonder… When we were fighting the Master of East Hall, they were surrounding us. Our hidden wounds were hurting us. We couldn’t fight in full power. It was a dangerous moment. However, Xiao Monarch, who was known to be a loner, actually showed up and helped us…
We never forgot a detail of it. We didn’t understand why the arrogant, indifferent, and cold-hearted Xiao Monarch would show up and help us! Now we do…
We have been grateful for what he did for us. We always wanted to do something for him…
We just never thought that he is our… our brother!
The two ladies burst into tears.
If we knew it… we would have taken revenge for our beloved brother long ago! We didn’t know! We never knew…
Yue Shuang and Yue Han didn’t suspect a word of what Ye Xiao said.
The story had been hidden in their hearts.
Only one person knew their secret story.
…
