The Ethereal Domains-Chapter 1874: Your Life History

Your Life History . . .

"Although retreating from the martial world for 100,000 years is a very long time, I had the Seven Golden Lotuses outside to defend the holy land of Chaotic City and save a place to restart my foundation. But, the Heaven's Leaf clan itself waited outside of the martial world. Because we had seven links to the world and had completely broken communications, we didn't expect to be able to take part in the five region's dirty business. Furthermore, in this 100,000 years, we could uninterruptedly birth heirs, producing generations upon generations of descendants. Generations upon generations of power struggles with the winner crowned king and the loser vilified, generations upon generations to evolve into a genuine super family clan…"

Cha Hongchen looked at Cha-Eun Xiao and said, "Although I have the ability of a monarch, I don't have the talent. This is something innate and not something I can achieve with effort, therefore I can only entrust my desire for a monstrous talent to the Cha family's descendants."

Cha-Eun Xiao still kept silent.

"Through all these 100,000 years, the Cha family descendants thought I was in seclusion looking for a breakthrough to increase my strength, so much so that people suspected I had suffered a serious injury in my battle with the Glaze Sky King and was striving to preserve what strength I had. They didn't know, I always paid attention to all the changes in the Cha family, all the ups and downs, from a detached point of view. No matter what happened, no matter what disaster appeared, I never interfered, merely watching on from the sidelines."

"Finally, 3000 years ago, there emerged two exceedingly superb talents in the Cha Family," Cha Hongchen said lightly. "One was called Cha Geyin, the other Cha Wubo. Cha Geyin was a naturally heroic and virtuous character, but Cha Wubo was a matchlessly ambitious and ruthless character. I don't know if it was individuality or ego in the clan in the past, perhaps overcautiousness in matters, but there were very few who emerged in the clan with such a ruthless personality."

"From seclusion I watched as these two grew up, and as expected they gradually divided into two groups in the family. Cha Wubo was fierce and ambitious to the point of not recognizing his own family and achieved his place through vicious and merciless means. On the other hand, Cha Geyin actually fell in love and gained a wife. Gradually Cha Geyin grew tired of warring. I think, at that time, if Cha Wubo had merely taken a step back and used some scheme to slowly gain power, he could have taken over effortlessly."

"What a pity, though, that the road of a tyrant never believes in chance, resulting in the two groups having a decisive battle. En… that one battle wasn't a battle as much as a massacre. That day, precisely on the day that Cha Geyin's son was born, everyone was gathered together to celebrate. No one anticipated that the liquor at the banquet contained deadly poison, and overnight everyone was murdered to the last person. Cha Geyin's wife and children died on the spot while Cha Geyin had serious injuries and was able to escape with his son. At this time, Cha Wubo had seized the entire Cha family's power."

Cha Hongchen said, "If the affair stopped at this, it is just the melodramatic story of one group's power struggle, a story with the winner crowned king and the loser vilified. Who could have imagined, though, that half a year later, the fugitive Cha Geyin and his son unexpectedly came across the Heaven Fate Tree. Cha Geyin picked the Heaven Fate fruit and ate it, his cultivation level rising to Undead Peak suddenly…"

Cha-Eun Xiao's mouth twitched, in his heart he endlessly mocked, 'Can you drop it, eh? This isn't melodramatic! It's simply nothing compared to previously!' He couldn't help recalling his time drinking Heaven Fate Tea with Young Master Bai on that day, though. He remembered it was their first meeting, receiving his Heaven Fate Tea. Though this tea birthed a different reaction, he wasn't sure if both trees were the same! Hearing that Cha Geyin's cultivation level skyrocketed to Undead Peak convinced him that it was quite possibly true, however.

"Cha Geyin's sudden increase in strength allowed him to make a comeback, and with one sword he killed Cha Wubo's group cleanly, down to the last chicken and dog. Finally, he hung Cha Wubo on a tree, flayed his skin off, hacked off his limbs, and gave him death by a thousand cuts!"

"However, after solving this animosity, rather than feeling relieved and pleased Cha Geyin felt even emptier, as if everything was illusory and unimportant. This was actually the hidden cost of eating the Heaven Fate Fruit. While it's true that you can receive the energy of Undead Peak from the fruit, you don't receive the corresponding enlightenment. In such a case, you gradually conform to Heaven's Will and enter a state unmoved by sentiment and desires. Although you achieve an undying body, you lose your heart and feelings as a person!"

"Fortunately the time since Cha Geyin had taken the fruit was still short. In response to this unusual condition, he made the decision to leave his heart in place. He used his entire essence blood, his lifetime of cultivation, and the Heaven Fate Cultivation method to pass everything on to his infant son. He even tore the fabric of space and time to deliver his son to a lower realm. He didn't want to have his son grow up in the power struggles of the family clan. It would be better to send his son off to the lower realm and leave it to the child to emerge or perish on his own."

"At that time, he said, 'If my son can survive, he will precisely be a happy laughing person. If my son can't survive, it is the will of Heaven that makes it so.' And so, he left a message for his final gift, giving his son the name… Xiao (smile)."

Cha Hongchen looked at Cha-Eun Xiao, saying, "This is precisely your life story."

Cha-Eun Xiao's hands had already clenched into fists at some point. His eyes desired to split, but he still stood there silently with lips bitten and blood dripping. ｂ𝚎ｄｎ𝚘ｖ𝚎ｌ.𝚌𝚘ｍ

Originally, it all came back to the Heaven Fate Fruit. Furthermore… previously Old Guan had used the inheritance technique correctly and was not mistaken, Cha-Eun Xiao was indeed of the Cha Family bloodline.

"That time, I also finally comprehended a matter rather unexpectedly," Cha Hongchen said, tiredly gazing far off into the distance over Cha-Eun Xiao's head.

Cha-Eun Xiao indifferently said, "Old Man Cha 's comprehensions are surely truly many, one can see that his perception is marvelous and gasp in amazement."

That this old ancestor could look on indifferently as his own descendants mutually slaughtered each other repelled Cha-Eun Xiao fully.

In a sinking voice, Cha Hongchen continued, "This time, I actually clearly comprehended the roots of our family."

"Family roots?" Cha-Eun Xiao said involuntarily.

These words were quite out of Cha-Eun Xiao's expectation and he was quite surprised.

"Yes, family roots. As the common saying said well, if you desire to become immortal, you must first behave with integrity. Climb the mountain of 10,000 zhang step by step, the tree reaches 1000 zhang, all things go back to the source," Cha Hongchen said. "By one's self, one must experience innumerable tribulations from tiny beginnings and walk up step by step ten thousand li into the sky, in this way one's life can be considered complete and magnificent."

"But, my Cha family had only the supreme family clan atmosphere to grow in, and lost the opportunities of the low level planes. Without this experience, the shortcomings were very large…"

"Moon lacks yet is not full, feelings lack yet having regrets, a life deficient of one experience makes the road forward seldom easy."

Cha Hongchen said, "These things, perhaps at the moment it is still hard for you to understand clearly, but one day you will."
