Chapter 1105: Information about Cha Eun Xiao!

Information about Cha Eun Xiao! . . .

Jun Yinglian understood what happened right away. Those people must have found her trace around this area. That was why they would put on a show like that.

If she lost control and set her hands to save that man, she would fall into their trap.

They were capable enough to impersonate Xiao Monarch so well. It meant they could also do a great job in setting up the traps. They must have been prepared for the trap carefully, and it would be almost impossible for Jun Yinglian to get away once she fell in.

She could imagine if she tried to save that fake Xiao Monarch, he would turn over to attack her instead. He was the key of the trap. At that moment, she would be unable to defend herself from him!

Luckily, she didn\'t show up and get involved!

The heaven\'s will never was unreasonable. It always blessed good people!

Honestly, Jun Yinglian did think about going out to help that man.

In fact, when she saw that man for the first time—when she saw that man\'s face—she panicked.

[Cha Eun Xiao… It he still alive?]

When she heard their conversation, they indicated the man was precisely Cha Eun Xiao, the man she missed so badly!

She wanted to rush over and have a closer look at him and make sure he was the man, but she stopped herself.

In the whole Qing-Yun Realm, if Jun Yinglian said she was the second who knew Cha Eun Xiao best, nobody else could claim first. Han Bingxue or Li Wuliang were both worse than her in this aspect.

Jun Yinglian understood that if that man was the real Xiao Monarch, he would never show his embarrassed look to her, as he was such an arrogant man.

Besides, Cha Eun Xiao never said he accepted her.

He was such an androcentric. If a young lady saved him when he was in an utterly uncomfortable situation, he would avoid seeing her ever again in his life!

Because of that, she hesitated and didn\'t help him in the first place because it seemed that \'Cha Eun Xiao\' wasn\'t indeed in deadly danger. Other than that, she had another reason, which seemed to be unusual.

When she saw the fake Xiao Monarch was in a life and death moment in the first fight, she was going to show up…

However, at that moment, she realized she wasn\'t distraught about him.

She wasn\'t worried at all!

Even though it seemed to be a drastic fight, and that man seemed to get killed at any second, she just didn\'t feel worried.

[Why?]

[How is it possible?]

She noticed it, and then she made a decision that she might never be going to forgive herself about.

She decided not to save him!

After a while, the fake Xiao Monarch was gradually falling into a deadly situation. It seemed he was unable to make it out of danger…

However, at that moment, Jun Yinglian still wouldn\'t go out. She was invaded by a wave of coldness. She felt cold for the man who was fighting for life.

[Why?]

[Why do I feel it this way?]

Deep in her heart, she was sure she loved Xiao Monarch so much. She would sacrifice her own life to exchange for a chance for Cha Eun Xiao to live. However, why didn\'t she feel sad even when she decided not to help him? Why didn\'t she feel worried for him like she did ever? She was watching him falling into a deadly situation, but why didn\'t she feel concerned? Why would she only feel cold and terrified inside her heart when she observed that man she loved?

Everything went wrong. She started to think, [Is there anything wrong?]

In fact, she had a Regeneration Dan bead with her all the time, which was the most precious treasure of Sky Ice Palace. Even if the fake Xiao Monarch was injured to the point of almost dying, she could still bring him back to life.

That was the biggest reason she would decide not to save him.

She was waiting. Even though she felt the problem, she still hoped that that man was indeed Cha Eun Xiao!

However, it turned out the fake Xiao Monarch suddenly raged up and killed a way out. He actually killed many people and left… Jun Yinglian felt that maybe it was too easy…

The result of the fight was never the point!

The point was whether the man as Cha Eun Xiao or not!

Since he was safe, she figured she should spend some time waiting to confirm his identity!

When she decided to do so, she didn\'t understand why she would make such a decision.

She hadn\'t seen Cha Eun Xiao for a long time. She missed him so much. She was crazy about it. Why would she decide to wait?

What was she waiting for?

She gave up the thought of meeting him. She followed him and observed every detail of that man, including how he swung his arms when he walked.

Even the size of his steps.

Little by little, she felt something was wrong.

Cha Eun Xiao was good at self-restraint. He was at least the

top 5 most self-restrained people in Qing-Yun Realm. That man acted exactly like Cha Eun Xiao, but not entirely.

Nobody could tell the difference except Jun Yinglian, who knew Cha Eun Xiao too well.

Even though she had felt something wrong, although it was most likely he wasn\'t Cha Eun Xiao, she still hoped that the miracle happened and Cha Eun Xiao was still alive!

As long as Cha Eun Xiao was alive, she wouldn\'t care about anything else!

However, not long after the first fight, the fake Xiao Monarch was hunted for the second time!

Jun Yinglian finally confirmed that it was a trap!

Suddenly, she felt cold.

In her heart, there was only desperation.

[So it is a trap… He is a fake… That Cha Eun Xiao is not real.]

Her dream was ended. The reality told her the truth again!

[So… Cha Eun Xiao is dead after all.]

Certainly, here is the text with "Cha" replaced by "Cha":

What had transpired was an elaborate ploy to exploit Cha Xiao and lay a trap for Jun Yinglian. Someone sought to eliminate her, and that was the crux of the matter!

Nonetheless, Jun Yinglian allowed the charade to play out repeatedly. Third, fourth, fifth times...

She persisted in silence, refraining from eliminating these men, all because she yearned to glimpse that man\'s face, to experience the essence of Cha Xiao.

She desired to feel his presence, even though she knew he was an imitation, even though she anticipated subtle disparities from the authentic one. Yet, she refrained from intervening, observing him bearing the face of Cha Xiao...

[I don\'t care about your schemes, or your cycle of death and resurrection, or the traps laid for me...]

[I don\'t care!]

[I just want to witness the silhouette of his form.]

[His visage.]

It was now the fifth instance.

She was convinced that whoever desired to eliminate her was well aware of her presence within this vicinity. Nevertheless, they remained uncertain of her precise whereabouts, which explained their recurrent enactment.

Approximately seven or eight men garbed in black repeatedly engaged the sham Xiao Monarch, causing a commotion that reverberated throughout the realm. Their loud cries were aimed at drawing attention.

Jun Yinglian sneered with a wry smile.

After the most recent skirmish concluded, the pseudo-Xiao Monarch departed in a grandiose manner, leaving behind "deceased" adversaries sprawled on the ground. Jun Yinglian continued to stand her ground, scrutinizing the scene.

This time, it took less than two hours for these black-clad figures to revive from their supposed demise and regroup.

They had been "slain" five times to date!

Five major confrontations, five incapacitations. Therefore, they had revived five times. Otherwise, who would engage in a sixth performance?

However, this time, they appeared to be engrossed in a discussion.

Were they contemplating a new performance?

For Jun Yinglian, it made no difference which act they were preparing. Her sole concern remained the visage of Cha Xiao. Nothing else held significance!

Nevertheless, she subtly advanced to bring her spiritual awareness closer to them, in an attempt to eavesdrop on their deliberations. Despite their intent to ensnare her, it was beneficial to possess insight into their scheming.

"Why is it not effective?" one man muttered in hushed tones. "Could it be that she... that woman is no longer in this vicinity?"

"Impossible. The directive from above has never led us astray. She must be close by," another man affirmed.

"Then why has she not materialized during the five iterations? We have made quite the commotion, and her abilities should have enabled her to detect us..." a third man frowned.

"She will come. We must remain concealed," their apparent leader declared. Yet, even he did not sound entirely convinced; his words seemed more for his benefit.

"The reinforcements have arrived and are concealed. Let us increase our efforts, make it even louder, and I am confident she will appear shortly."

"Yes."

"Exactly. Although the martial world has been restless lately. Rumor has it that Misty Cloud Palace declared war against Qiong-Hua Palace," one man interjected.

"No way. Truly?" another man expressed skepticism. "If the two grand palaces clash... it will spell turmoil for the entire world."

"That is accurate. Given the current tranquility, I doubt the two grand palaces have truly commenced hostilities."

The conversation then veered toward idle chatter.

"You gentlemen are unaware of the situation, are you?" the man who had introduced the topic appeared smug. "There is a salacious rumor..."

Their fellow companions prodded, urging him to divulge further information.

"This is how it goes...blah blah blah... As a result, the two grand palaces declared their enmity to each other..."

"What? Preposterous! Is this genuine? It sounds implausible... are you sure this is not a product of your imagination?"

"Why? Are you taken aback? That is not all... blabablablablabla... It is said that Oracle District is at the heart of this development."

"Hiss... Incredible... Are you certain? Doesn\'t it sound rather fantastical? What is happening?"

"Furthermore, it is rumored that this predicament is linked to the Saintess of Qiong-Hua Palace from that time."

"Absolutely. Who isn\'t familiar with that? What of it?"

"What of it? That is the crux of the matter..."

"Well, you see... blabablablablabla... It is said that when Qiong-Hua Palace was about to confront Cha Nantian and his son, who is the offspring of Cha Nantian and Yue Gongxue, Misty Cloud Palace abruptly emerged in support of Cha Clan. They even declared their intent to wage war against Qiong-Hua Palace under the directive of their esteemed Elder Xuan Bing!"

"Hiss... No way... Is it genuine? Doesn\'t it sound perplexing? It\'s strange, you see... are you certain this is not a figment of your imagination?"

"There must be a rationale behind this. It appears that the young lord of Cha Clan, the son of Cha Nantian and Yue Gongxue, bears the appellation Cha Xiao. He shares a name with the fallen Xiao Monarch, who perished battling the three factions. Remarkable, isn\'t it?"

"What? That\'s astonishing! He possesses a formidable moniker... Cha Nantian is a courageous individual to christen his son with such a formidable name. But hold on... if he is named Cha Xiao, why did Cold Moon Palace come to Cha Clan\'s aid? Shouldn\'t they be adversaries?"

"Heh... Allow me to reveal more," the man continued, "The young lord Cha Xiao is approximately eighteen years old. Despite his tender age, he is quite accomplished, for he is the personal disciple of all three grand elders at Cold Moon Palace..."

"What? Preposterous! Incredible!" the others exclaimed in astonishment.

"Do you recall the rupture within the alliance of the three factions and their dissolution? This young lord Cha Xiao was the catalyst... However, during his time at Cold Moon Palace, he assumed the moniker Cha Chongxiao, concealing his real name. It was a prudent choice. Even though he is exceptionally talented, the elders of Cold Moon Palace would not have accepted him if he had employed his true name while residing in the martial world. It remains a taboo subject due to the enmity between Xiao Monarch and the three factions. It is a matter of fate and fortune..."

"Hiss..."

"I see..."

"It is indeed a twisted and intriguing narrative..."

"It appears that Oracle District is presently the epicenter of all developments..."

...

Not only were the men in black surprised, but Jun Yinglian was equally taken aback. Numerous occurrences were transpiring concurrently.

She had never fathomed the extent of these events.

Nevertheless, when she heard the details, she harbored no doubts. After all, she had already learned about Cha Xiao\'s appellation from Yue Gongxue. This information echoed Yue Gongxue\'s earlier request.

It appeared that she needed to proceed to Oracle District.

Suddenly, her eyes burned with murderous intent.

[Now she had a purpose to

fulfill. She no longer had time to engage with these individuals...]
