Chapter 1092 - Using food as bait 4
“If you want to kill me then do it!” Elder Wu knew that as things were right now, escape was a futile wish. If it were due to other misunderstandings, perhaps he could find a way to escape. However, to avenge the extermination of a clan was something that couldn’t be eased with words. Right now, he only wished to die a quick death.
“Do you think that you can die just because you want to?” Ximen Feng lifted his foot and he looked at the men on the ground with a chilling gaze, “Relax, I will definitely let you die. I will let you watch yourselves die with your eyes wide open. Lock them in the lowest level.”
“Yes, Valley Master!”
Although the disciples of Heartbreak Valley knew that Heartbreak Valley was established in order to deal with Yin Yang Palace and the Sage Pavilion and knew that there was enmity, they didn’t know that it was to avenge the extermination of their entire sect.
They stepped forward and picked up one person with each hand. They carted them off the deck to the dark cellar downstairs and locked them up.
They had the scent that would attract the attacks of spirit beasts. If they were not locked away, they might lure the sea beasts over.
“Alright, thank you for your cooperation. These wines have not been tampered with. You can drink this with ease.” Sima You Yue kept away the wine from earlier and took out a new batch of wine as she spoke to those on deck.
“Hehe, I just knew Boss wouldn’t stop us from drinking.” Ni An Yi hugged the wine jars and released the seal. He lowered his head and sniffed it. It smelled great!
“You just speak too much!” Sima You Yue rolled her eyes, but she didn’t mean to chastise him at all.
It was a good thing that Sima You Yue had a lot of this wine, so everyone on the boat could drink their fill.
Little Spirit watched as they drank half the batch that they had spent an entire year refining in a single night. He lamented the fact that they could drink so well. It seemed like he would have to make a bit more in the future. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have enough to drink later on.
In the past, few people drank. That was why they didn’t manufacture that many. The spirit fruits in the spirit pagoda fermented one after the other, so they could finally refine a few.
However, thinking about how many they had already refined, it would be fine even if she gave it away to a few people.
The boat sailed under Little Seven and Kong Xiang Yi’s control for five to six days before they finally reached an island.
Although they called it an island, it wasn’t actually small. It was probably half the size of a continent.
“Xiao Xiao, do you find it a little weird?” As the boat got closer to shore, Han Miao Shuang watched as Sima You Yue kept the boat away. She turned towards the seemingly endless waters and said with furrowed eyebrows.
“Something really is off. We came over here but didn’t get attacked by a single sea beast. That is too weird.” Su Xiao Xiao said.
“Not really. I was wondering earlier on whether or not there were even some sea beasts in the waters. Later on when I was on the deck, I realised that there were many sea beats, but they hid when they encountered us.” Kong Xiang Yi said.
“Could it be that they knew they wouldn’t’ be able to defeat us, so they intentionally avoided us?” Little Seven postulated.
“They didn’t even exchange blows with us. How would they know that they wouldn’t be able to defeat us? Furthermore, we trespassed in their territory but they didn’t even say a thing.” Han Miao Shuang said.
“That’s true.” Little Seven pinched her forehead, “I can’t figure it out. You yue, do you know?”
“I think I have a pretty good idea.” Sima You Yue said.
“You really know why?!”
“If my guess is not wrong, it should be because my brothers have brought the violet water dragon clan across these waters earlier. As we were crossing the waters, they just made it clear. So, the sea beasts didn’t dare to mess with us.” Sima You Yue said.
“How do you know that?”
Sima You Yue closed her eyes and took a whiff, saying, “There is a light smell of the dragon clan in the air. They probably reached here not too long ago.”
“You can even smell that? Why can’t I?” Han Miao Shuang tried to sniff around, but she couldn’t catch a whiff of the violet water dragon clan.
“You haven’t spent much time with them, that’s why you can’t tell.” Sima You Yue said, “I’ve been with them for a long time and spent more time with that. I’m naturally more familiar with the way they smell.”
“Boss, what do we do with these people?” Ni An Yi asked.
“Help them find a good burial spot.” Sima You Yue released a group of crimson bees after speaking. They took advantage of the time when there were only a few people around to rush about. They did their best to keep watch over the little island and also tried to see if there really were historical remains on this island.
Each of the men from heartbreak valley carried one of the men from Yin Yang Palace and followed Sima You Yue towards the centre of the island.
They arrived in the valley of a mountain and were planning to toss them onto the ground and run off.
“What do you want to do to us?! I would advise you to let us go. Otherwise, the Yin Yang Palace will definitely find out that you guys were the ones who killed us!” One of the elders of Yin Yang Valley threatened.
“Who said that I was going to kill you?” Sima You Yue walked over, “We don’t have the time of day to kill you, neither do we have the energy to deal with the aftermath.”
“If you let us go now, we will not hold you responsible for what you tried to do to us today.” Some of them were still narcissistic, as if they had not yet managed to make sense of what was happening.
“This person isn’t crazy, right?” Little Seven asked.
“I think he is. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be saying all these things.” Han Miao Shuang said.
“Just what have you done to us?!” The men of the Yin Yang Palace were flustered.
“There will naturally be someone coming to take care of you.” Sima You Yue said, “Didn’t you say that your Yin Yang Palace would do so and so to us? If we don’t do it ourselves, how could they pin the crime on us?”
Elder Wu narrowed his eyes. She was really confusing him. He had no idea what they were about to do to them.
“Just toss them on the mountain valley. There will be spirit beasts coming to receive them soon.” Sima You Yue ordered.
Every single person was tossed onto the mountain valley.
“You want to use the spirit beasts to kill us?!”Elder Wu said.
Sima You Yue walked over, saying, “That’s right. Elder Wu, you’re really smart. It really isn’t tiring at all to converse with a smart person.”
Elder Wu relaxed a little when he heard what she said. If it were spirit beasts, if it went well, they may not act against them. They may be able to convince them to spare them.
“Thinking about how you can negotiate with the spirit beasts?” Sima You Yue exposed what Elder Wu was thinking, “Do you think that we chose this method to give you a way out? Once the spirit beasts come over and take a look at you, they will lose all rationality. Unless they kill you, they will never stop.”
Her words caused Elder Wu to recall what happened back when they had met the Spirit Beasts. Those spirit beasts had charged over without a care when they had seen them. They started fighting them without even saying this.
Thinking about it now, it seemed like Sima You Yue had known about this long ago!
“Recalling what happened to you before?” Sima You Yue very kindly explained it to him, “Are you wondering why the spirit beasts you met earlier were the same way?”
