"A bloodshed in the martial world is unavoidable…" Zhan Yunfei looked pale on the face.
"Those to get hit first would be Saint Sunlight Sect, Saint Starlight Sect, and Cold Moon Palace…" Zhu Jiutian added, with his head low.
"Little brother disciple, I officially warn you. Once the chaos begins, you must hide!" Zhan Yunfei sounded solemn.
"That's right!" Zhu Jiutian looked at Ye Xiao with concerns, "You must forget all others when that day comes! Just run away! Hide! Use a fake name! Keep yourself alive! When the world is back to peace, you should come out again. The safety of our sect is not the issue that a young disciple like you should be worried about. We will take care of it."
Ye Xiao was touched, but then he intentionally asked, "If we are really going to be in such a great danger, why don't we consider making an attack in advance? Who attacks first controls the situation. Brothers, you should know it better than I do!"
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian made a long sigh.
"Absolutely no!" Zhan Yunfei stayed quiet for a while and then said with a bitter smile.
"Why not? We know our sect is going to fall into a deadly crisis, yet you are telling me we can't do what it takes to stop it in advance?" Ye Xiao was surprised.
"Even though they are terribly powerful, what they are going to do will be their personal matters. They are individuals. They will never do damage to the strong foundation of any great sects. It is alright that we just let them keep seeking revenge till the end of the day."
"But if we do it first to sweep out the threats, it will be not simply a few women taking revenge."
"Sky Ice Palace would stand out for what we do to their former Prime Master. It will be a war between the two sects. Sky Ice Palace will have a moral reason to start the war."
"They never had a reason to declare war, but if we kill their people, they will get one."
"Qiong-Hua Palace is the same."
"If we lay our hands on them, in spite of whether we can successfully kill them or not, it will tell the world that our sect attack Qiong-Hua Palace's elders… In another word, it won't be a personal matter anymore. It will become a conflict between sects!"
"If that happens, I am afraid the three factions will collapse within a short time… Not even one person of our sect will survive the war. That is why we told you to run away and hide if anything goes wrong. Even though Ye Clan is fully supported by Qiong-Hua Palace and Misty Cloud Palace, you will be the first target of all the opponents, because you are the most important disciple of Cold Moon Palace!"
Zhu Jiutian sighed. He was trying to give Ye Xiao a lesson.
"So, the best option is… to wait for the ladies' next move… Once we start it, the three factions will fail to afford the loss."
"It is a deadly wound either by a blunt knife, or a hammer…"
"It is such a mess at the moment." Zhan Yunfei looked troubled, "We don't even know whether we should report to the sect about the fact that the two ladies are sisters to Xiao Monarch."
Ye Xiao was shocked. He thought for a while and then smiled. "Brothers, after your nice explanation, I finally understand how messy it is… Let me see if I can give you some practical advice."
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian were glad to hear it. They looked at him with hope. Zhan Yunfei said, "That's right! We have heard the story about you stirring storms in the lower realm. What an intelligent monster! Even Master Bai of House of the Chaotic Storms, a figure who is like a god, actually submitted in your clever plan. Your opinion will definitely help us out of this messy situation!"
"What? Holy hell… Who is lying about me? Since when I become an intelligent monster? Wait, how did you know about it?" Ye Xiao was angry about it. [That is definitely a humiliation to me! When I fought Master Bai, I had to play some small tricks because I was weak!]
[Wait a minute! The thing between Master Bai and I is a secret to most of the people in the Land of Han-Yang! How do these two know so much about it? It seems they are well aware of it!]
Zhan Yunfei giggled and said, "When you accompanied the two ladies to their room, Zhu Jiutian and I told your father how and why we were worried about you. Your father was helpless at first, but then he remembered something. He clapped on the chest and promised that you would definitely survive the crisis. Then he told us how you played around Master Bai, Wan, and Xiu when you were weak like an ant. He thought that you might have a solution to the current problem…"
Ye Xiao half closed his eyes and said, "Holy hell! You two were fooling me! You planned to earn my sympathy… Wait, my father doesn't know much about that story either…"
Zhu Jiutian said, "Well, your father said that he had received a letter from one of his brother, whose name should be Song Jue. He said Song Jue was coming soon to support him. Song Jue told your father that you successfully solve the problem of Master Bai… He said you could always get through different kinds of dangers safely…"
Zhan Yunfei noticed that Ye Xiao was talking chitchat, so he got anxious. He urged, "Come on, my dear brother, let's just put the old man away for a minute. Let's focus on the main business, shall we? Don't you see how miserable we are now?"
"That's right." Zhu Jiutian said, "We are waiting for your suggestion here… Please, what should we do now?"
Ye Xiao stopped the unrelated topic since the two brothers were genuinely anxious. He took a few steps around and then loosened the frowned eyebrows. He said, "I will start with the current situation first, before what I think should be done next."
"Go ahead. Speak." The two brothers spoke at the same time.
"As the current situation shows, the two ladies don't personally hate you much. I guess you two have the same judgment as mine, don't you?"
Ye Xiao said, "Think about how they talked about their brother and expressed their love to their brother at the table. If they truly hate you two or want to do anything against you, why would they sit together with you two at the same table?"
