Chapter 137: 137: Upset Grandma Hialun (2) Grandma Hialun had been crying for hours. If not for her children helping her hydrate herself, she would most likely be dehydrated. Everyone stayed at the cemetery for an hour with Grandma Hialun, but after looking after the old lady last night, most of them hadn't rested well ever since Grandma Hialun learned about Xing Suya's death. They had been worried all the time and depressed, making their psychological state more strained than before. The sun had long since set, yet Grandma Hialun didn't seem to have any intention of leaving this place. A lot of her children were not feeling well due to lack of sleep, stress, and overfatigue, so none of them chose to leave and remained beside Grandma Hialun at this place. Once Grandma Hialun had calmed down, she suddenly said, "You guys can go back first. I want to stay here for a little longer." "Then I will stay," some of her children said. But the old lady didn't agree to such words: "Go home. I will be alright. If there is someone who needs to stay, only one can remain," said Grandma Hialun. Her children looked at one another, deciding which one to stay with and which not, but when they saw each other's black circles under their eyes, they knew that their siblings' states weren't much different from theirs. Moreover, they are worried that something might happen to the old lady when she is alone. Yue Xuexia raised her hand and said, "Let me stay. I can also treat Granny if something happens. I also have bodyguards with me." Knowing about Yue Xuexia's ability to treat illnesses, as well as the bodyguards that were with her at all times yet remained hidden, everyone agreed after a few moments of hesitation. In the end, everyone agreed to let Yue Xuexia stay with the old lady, as in the end, the younger generation had rested well last night as they weren't included in the night duty to watch over the old lady when she fainted. "Okay. Let Xue'er watch over mom for tonight. If she still wants to stay the next morning, someone else will take over," Mama Yue said. Papa Yue said this to her daughter. "If you feel sleepy, just call on the bodyguards to protect you two. Call us immediately if something happens." "I understand, Pa," said Yue Xuexia. After a few more words from her aunts and uncles, as well as cousins, they finally took their leave, with only Grandma Hialun and Yue Xuexia, as well as Tan Bingyu and Taiyang, staying at the cemetery. The cemetery is a private space, so anyone from the Xia Clan had to stay inside. Not far from them, a camping RV was driven over by one of the subordinates of Yue Xuexia for their use. At least this RV had a bathroom, a small kitchen, and a bedroom. Yue Xuexia approached her grandma, who was sitting on the ground, hugging a photo of her aunt Suya. She sat beside her grandmother without saying a word and just stayed by her side, waiting for her to speak up. The silence between the two was suffocating, yet neither of them thought it was so tranquil. In the end, the one who broke the silence was the old lady. Grandma Hialun spoke, "Xue'er, did you know that your Grandpa Xia had also died all of a sudden like this?" Yue Xuexia stayed silent and quietly listened to her grandma. "At that time, I thought that your grandpa, who was much healthier than your grandma, would be able to stay with me until the end. He also promised to do the same thing." "In the end, he hid his illness and didn't even go to get checked or buy medicines. Only when he was dying did he say that they didn't have much money and he didn't want to waste it on him, a dying old man." "At that time, I hated your grandpa so much. How could he ignore himself just because of money? Maybe it was because of this that granny likes money; with it, most things can be resolved." "I heard from Rou'er that your aunt Xing chose not to undergo chemotherapy. Is it truly because she didn't want to or because there is no money? Xue'er, can you tell Granny what the answer is?" Yue Xuexia knew about this. The reason Aunt Xing didn't undergo chemotherapy was not only because it cost a lot but also because she was afraid of dying in the process. She also didn't like pain that much. After all, she had already witnessed her husband dying from colon cancer and lost him forever after undergoing chemotherapy. In the end, Yue Xuexia answered the old lady honestly and said, "It was both. That time Aunt Suya was afraid of the side effects of chemotherapy and also because she didn't want to burden her children with the money cost of it. Moreover, it was a relapse. After her breasts were removed a few months after a relapse happened, it was already too late to treat." Grandma Hialun was quiet as she listened to Yue Xuexia's explanation. She knew that this granddaughter of hers didn't like to lie. Even though she had expected it, in the end, it was because they were poor. "In the end, I lost another loved one because of not having enough money," mumbled Grandma Hialun. Yue Xuexia whispered in comfort. "Granny, it will never happen again. This time I have enough money I can't spend in my whole life. Our family will never have to suffer from the same circumstances ever again. Moreover, Aunt Suya was happy at her last moments. Didn't you get a call from her at that time?" Grandma Hialun recalled the last call she received from Xing Suya. At that time, she wanted to video call with her, but unfortunately, the other side didn't want to, and she didn't know how to do so. Just recalling the happy yet weakened voice of her daughter, she thought Xing Suya had just called that day after waking up. Who would have thought that was a call saying her last goodbye to her mother? Thinking about this once more, Grandma Hialun started crying once more. This time she was too tired and finally fainted thanks to the scented sachet Yue Xuexia intentionally wore on her to induce sleepiness, and this is especially effective on stressed and fatigued people like Grandma Hialun's current state. The old lady fell asleep on Yue Xuexia's shoulder while still crying. Looking at her grandmother worriedly, Yue Xuexia gently weeps Grandma Hialun's tears. She finally carried her grandma in her arms and brought her into the RV to let her rest. After letting her lay down on the bed and covering her with a blanket, Yue Xuexia's gentle expression fades. Yue Xuexia said, "Sister Bingyu, please stay inside and protect my grandmother." "Please leave her to me, Mistress!" said Tan Bingyu. Yue Xuexia once again came out of the RV, and a few cultivators appeared on the spot surrounding the RV from all directions. She stood beside Taiyang and looked up at the sky like him. Taiyang had already informed him about this man's arrival a while ago. Even though he had threatened this man to take his leave, this person still chose to come back. Adding to the fact that there is that mysterious event about her grandfather's coffin, Yue Xuexia's eyes turned completely cold as she stared at the familiar face of the old gentleman above them. "Please come down while I am still asking you nicely," said Yue Xuexia. Her cold yet resolute words echo in the empty cemetery. If the usual staff that guards the cemetery were here at this moment, they would most likely be terrified to see their boss suddenly talking in the evening sky. Fortunately, it seems that Yue Xuexia isn't talking to herself or in the air. A handsome old man with similar phoenix-shaped eyes as Yue Xuexia, wearing a white male hanfu, descended from the evening sky. It is Great Elder Xia from the Starfield Sect. Sigh~ Taiyang looked at the old man with a disinterested gaze and even rolled his eyes at him. The elder was a bit annoyed by Taiyang's reaction, but he heard a lot about this young man and knew how dangerous this person who stood by her granddaughter's side was. Great Elder Xia said, "Don't you know how dangerous that lad is beside you, Xue'er?" Yue Xuexia's voice turn prickly at this old man's words and retorted. "Only my family is allowed to call me Xue'er, and you are not one of them." "How can you say that? I am your grandfather!" said Great Elder Xia. "Don't you know how long I have been looking for Lun'er, your grandma!?" "When you decided to fake your death and cut off your connection to the mortal realm, you were no longer a part of our Xia Family. My grandfather was buried in that empty casket and you are just a mere stranger," said Yue Xuexia. Each word of Yue Xuexia made Great Elder Xia feel guilty. He can feel the pain of getting his heart stabbed multiple times with just the simple words from the young lady, who is the daughter of his youngest daughter. The indifference within those eyes like his, looking at him like a stranger, made him uneased. He can even hardly breath as he witnessed how this young lady hid his wife from him and even prevented him from approaching her. The Great Elder Xia said, "Xue'er, there is an explanation for that." "I do not want to hear your excuses. Why did you appear before Granny? If you don't give me a reasonable reason, I will have someone throw you back to the cultivation realm!" said Yue Xuexia. This time, a flash of rage appeared within her eyes as she looked at the old man before her. On the other hand, Great Elder Xia was surprised that his granddaughter, who is supposed to be a mortal, could emit such a pure and powerful qi. Moreover, it was completely opposite of his supreme yang qi. It's an absolute Yin Qi, which is much more powerful than his. Great Elder Xia mumbles in surprise, "Peak Qi Refinement Stage. No! A Quasi-foundation stage. Xue'er, you know how to cultivate!?"
