Transcending The Martial Peak - Chapter 89 She Is ...differen

As the events of the day unfolded before her, Meng Xin watched the couple’s affection. As the day ended, the couple were tired, they ended the day in each other’s arms as they faced life together.

*Crack*

The world shattered as Meng Xin found herself staring at a silver-haired youth with sky blue pupils. He was standing in front of her and calling out to her. His face was full of worry.

Meng Xin raised her head and looked into his eyes. The same eyes. They had the same affection hidden under.

Meng Xin heard his shouts clearly now “Meng Xin, what happened? Are you alright?” his voice was full of concern. After witnessing the life they lived and knowing that he remembered it clearly, she knew how deep his feelings were.

She didn’t know what to say, She only smiled at him lightly. Sheng Tian saw her smile at him and he was relieved seeing her being fine. But her smile felt …familiar and different.

Sheng Tian sat down and felt that he was being inconsiderate of her condition in his anticipation.

Sheng Tian slowly got up. He walked to the window which portrayed the world with beauty as the vista calmed his heart.

Snow has already started melting as the dew on the cold gales were replaced by the warm breezes. The Sun seemed to bring more warmth as the temperature felt just right. The mornings were no longer spent rolling with the blankets in the coldness as the enthusiasm filled the lives to welcome each morning and pursue dreams.

Meng Xin looked at Sheng Tian gazing out of the window. She didn’t get to see the three years they spent, but that one day she saw was just like a bite from tender meat, with one bite you could tell the whole dish is luscious. She knew their relationship should have been the same.

She closed her eyes and thought of her life as it flashed before her eyes. When she was done, she took small steps and stood next to him as she gazed into the distance.

“It’s great.” he suddenly said. Joy apparent in his tone.

“What’s great?” she was curious. A small smile surfaced on his face as he spoke calmly ” I thought it was all a figment of my imagination. It turned out to be true.”

She looked at him for a while, before an unnoticeable smile appeared on her face. Then she wanted to ask him about how it all started. But she held herself back as she felt that it might be a huge secret. Maybe he would tell her.

Sheng Tian didn’t speak further as they enjoyed the silence. Sometimes, words are better left unsaid and silence is a better message.

A while later, both Sheng Tian and Meng Xin were once again seated in their previous positions.

Sheng Tian said in a light tone “Meng Xin, I will court you.” All he earned was a glare from her.

“Alright. I know what you are thinking. You put the goal which you pursue even above your own life. I won’t disturb you from pursuing your dream. But after you fulfilled it, hehe.” he gave a light chuckle at the end.

He then looked at her “My alias is Ling Tian. I would be joining Mystic Ice Sect. And finding you, I think I can guess where to find you.”

She looked at him with interest. “I guess two possibilities. One should be the Royal Family. You might have joined in their forces. However, I believe in my second guess. A secret association which has greater power than the sects. Possibly even the Royal Family.”

Meng Xin looked at him with complete shock. How was he able to guess this?

Sheng Tian waved his hands and spoke “Now, Now, Don’t become my fan and devote to me because of this. You have something to do. After all, the main point is becoming my fan is not easy and needs huge service.”

Meng Xin let out a small chuckle like the chirping of birds. This fellow, he didn’t change. He was the same in the dream, he is still the same in real life as well.

Sheng Tian also smiled lightly “Now then, I guess I will see you soon. Take care and don’t become fat.”

Saying so, he stood up and left. Meng Xin was still processing his words as she was dazed by his smile earlier. After hearing his words of caring, she felt happy. But when she heard the last part, she abruptly stood up and looked at his direction. With a grumpy mood, she stomped her foot to vent her anger.

Fat? When did I ever become fat? She thought.

Sheng Tian is the only person who can make Meng Xin show such a myriad of emotions. Anyone else who knew Meng Xin including Ke’Er would only see her calmness.

But this bastard is the only one who could waver her calm heart. She stood up and went out.

He already left. She sighed and went to look for Leng Yue Yan and Ke’Er. They were having tea as Ke’Er started blabbering with the Ice Goddess. Leng Yue Yan was silently listening and very rarely, she nodded her head. She still had the same cold expression but it seemed to soften a bit.

Meng Xin looked at the two and thought ‘One can’t stop talking and the other won’t speak at all, Truly a perfect pair.’

Meanwhile, the MVP returned to his room and got ready to face something even more terrifying than World War three, a Woman’s jealousy!

Sheng Tian paced in his room as he was thinking of what to say to the demoness. He racked his brains as he was hoping to give a feasible explanation to her. Sadly, he got nothing.

Suddenly, a white light flashed as a young woman with the face of an angel and body of a devil appeared on the bed.

Xiao Lian looked very calm as she stared at him. Sheng Tian whose body can bear extreme temperatures due to his Dragon Physique started sweating profusely.

When he thought of how she would show jealousy or scold him, she said something entirely different “That woman is trustable. But you shouldn’t tell any of the important secrets to her, yet.”

“Huh?” he was stunned. “You’re not…..jealous? And not going to scold me?”

Xiao Lian heard his question and laughed lightly. But Sheng Tian somehow felt that her laughter had deep meaning behind it.

She said to Sheng Tian “Sheng Tian, do you think I am the same as all those girls who will burn with jealousy and scold you nonstop?”

He was a bit taken back. But as he thought about it, she was not the same as those girls who would usually fight or cause a ruckus due to jealousy. She experienced much more in life. Death, Rebirth, Luxury, Betrayal, Helplessness, Acceptance and finally Love.

She wouldn’t see the world the same way other girls would. She wouldn’t have the same morals as other girls. Because she is…..different. She is Xiao Lian. She is someone who can smile in the face of death and bicker with him like nothing was going on. She can come up with plans to rob the treasuries and is extraordinary in cooking. She is very mature has childishness and loves to have fun. She is not ordinary at all.

Sheng Tian felt a bit proud as he thought that.

Xiao Lian spoke as she pulled him onto the bed “Yes, I do get jealous. But even when I get jealous, I am not enraged. I am happy that I am still alive to get jealous. I told you that I needed time to accept this. And after I convinced myself, I feel that it’s fine this way.

People would know what they truly want in life only when they understand that they would lose everything one day. After I accepted death, I understood what I wanted. I want to stay with you, that’s all.”

Xiao Lian was hugging him as she was above him. Sheng Tian who heard her confession felt his heart melt but as the person he was, he immediately said: “That’s very bold of you to say those words.”

Xiao Lian recalled the words she said earlier and felt embarrassed under his gaze. She hid her face in his chest as she ruthlessly pinched his waist. All Sheng Tian could do was beg for mercy and curse his tongue.

Only after a while did she stop. Sheng Tian then said, “I won’t let you down.”

“And you say that right after you said you would court another girl?” she pinched him again, this time more ruthlessly.

Sheng Tian wanted to cry but had no tears.

Oh Lord, What did I do wrong?

Didn’t she say that she won’t get jealous?

Then why is this happening?

Did I say the wrong line and provoke her?

A woman’s heart is an eternal mystery!
