Chapter 792 - Ling Mu’s array
Sima You Yue and Ximen Feng sat down and took out the little paper crane from before, handing it back to Kong Xiang Yi.
“Is your wound really better? I heard the news. Your condition was terrifying back then. Even Xu Jin couldn’t do a thing.” Ximen Feng was still rather worried.
“It was a little scary before, but I’m fine now. I won’t treat my body lightly.” Sima You Yue said, “Did something happen that you had to use the paper to call me over?”
“Yeah. Something’s happened.” Ximen feng said, “But you’re still the priority.”
“Alright, I know. You’re worried about me. Now that you’ve seen that I’m well, can you tell me what’s going on?” Sima You Yue was tickled by Ximen Feng’s behavior as she asked with a laugh.
“We came to look for you for something.” Kong Xiang Yi said, “We obtained an array earlier on, but we had no idea how to disarm it. That’s why we came to you for help.”
“Array? Your Kong Valley should have an array master, right?” Sima You Yue asked, puzzled.
“Yeah, but our array master said that the array is not like our current ones, so he doesn’t know how to disarm it.” Kong Xiang Yi said, “We recalled that you knew a few older arrays, and thought of asking you to save us.”
“Save you? Why? Do you have people trapped in there?” Sima You Yue asked.
“Yes. This is part of the news that our array master told us based on what they sent out. Come, first take a look.” Kong Xiang Yi took out a piece of paper and handed it to Sima You Yue.
Sima You Yue took the note and opened it. On it, there was a portion of the array. Only one corner of it was more detailed. She looked at it for a moment before saying, “This should be a cemetary’s array?”
“Yeah, it’s an array at the cemetery. Can you disarm it?” Kong Xiang Yi immediately asked when she heard it.
Sima You Yue furrowed her eyebrows as she asked, “There are too little details written here. There are a few arrays like it, and I can’t be certain which it is. I can only determine it if I see it with my own eyes. Where is it?’
Kong Xiang Yi pondered over it for a moment, saying, “It’s from a cemetary in the violet water swamp.”
A cemetery in the violet water swamp? Why was it the violet water swamp again?
“What’s wrong, Big sis?” Ximen Feng asked when he saw her furrow her eyebrows.
“Nothing much, I was just wondering why the violet water swamp would have an ancient array like this.” Sima You Yue said, “How did the Kong valley clansmen get stuck in here?”
“They inadvertently happened to realise it. The disciples from the inner valley went nearby to the violet water swamp to complete a mission. Then, they heard something happen near there, so they went to take a look. Then, they accidentally fell into the swamp, and below it was a cemetery. Since they found the place, they naturally wanted to explore it. Who would have thought that they would end up trapped inside the array. It was a good thing that Jing Huan was a little familiar with arrays and managed to contact the outside, spreading news.
“Jing Huan? It couldn’t be the Jing Huan that was trapped inside the West Coast desert, right?” Sima You Yue raised her eyebrows.
“Who else. Once Jing Wen knew that you had rescued his brother, he had always wanted to give you his thanks.”
“He just escaped from the west coast desert, so how did he end up getting trapped in there?” Sima You Yue felt like this guy’s luck was just too ‘great’!
“He went there with Jing Wen. I wasn’t at peace letting them go alone, so i got some disciples from the inner sect to go with them.” Kong Xiang Yi said.
“So you’re saying that Jing Wen is in there too?” Sima You Yue asked.
“Yeah.” Kong Xian Yi hesitated, saying, “i know that the sect’s competition is drawing near, but could you head over there to take a look? Jing Wen said that there are many mechanisms in there, and I’m afraid that they won’t be able to hold on for long.”
“I can ask for leave to take a look and give it a try, but I won’t be able to guarantee that I’ll be able to disarm it. I don’t have a hundred precent’s guarantee.” Sima You Yue siad.
“Really? Thank you, You Yue!”
“But I’ll have to go back to the sect to ask for leave.” Sima You Yue said, “I might have to spend a bit of time. Although my master isn’t around, I’ll have to go back to let the sect know.”
“Alright, we’ll wait for you.”
“I have to take a look at Memory Restaurant before I return. I have a few friends waiting for my news.” Sima You Yue said.
“Friends?”
“I got to know a few disciples from the Heroic Sword Sect at Bright red Mountain Peak. We suffered a bit together. Because I was injured, they were worried and came over.” Sima You Yue explained.
“I’ll go with you.” Ximen Feng said.
“No need, I won’t get lost anyway.” Sima You Yue said, “I’ll head to the sect once I’ve met them. I can go on my own.”
“Alright, then.”
Sima You Yue left after saying her goodbyes to Sima Lie. Sima Lie was increasingly confident that he had made the right decision.
Ever since they had come up, he had too few interactions with his kids!
However, he couldn’t be with them right away because he had to do a proper handover for Memory Restaurant.
Sima You Yue went to Memory Restaurant. When the manager saw her coming, he immediately went to welcome her.
“Young Master.”
“Manager, my brothers brought a few friends here the last time. Are they still around?” Sima You Yue asked.
“They are. They are in the first few rooms at the third level.” Manager said.
“Oh, I’ll go up on my own. You can go ahead.” Sima You Yue went upstairs after speaking.
She came to the corner room and heard some voices coming from inside. She listened closely to the conversation before ascertaining that it was them chatting. Then, she knocked on the door.
“Who is it?” Yu Qing opened the door and saw Sima You Yue standing outside. She cried out with joy, “You Yue, you’re okay?!”
“Boss is here?” Qi Wei dashed over and saw that Sima You Yue was really standing outside their door as he happily wrapped her in a hug, “Boss, if you came any longer, I wouldn’t have been able to take it anymore.”
“Cough cough-” Sima You Yue almost couldn’t breathe wrapped inside his hug, as she patted his arm, getting him to let her down.
“You couldn’t take it anymore? Why does that sound so ambiguous?” Sima You Yue walked in before noticing two strangers inside.
“You are?”
“They are Qi Wei’s older brothers. They came to take him back.” Blue Blade explained.
At the same time, they also came to take a look at who it was that their younger brother had hailed as his boss.
Qi Wei introduced them.
“Younger Bro, now that you have seen him, you should return with us.” One of Qi Wei’s brothers said.
“Oh.” Qi Wei seemed very obedient. Although he was not willing to leave Sima You Yue, he still nodded his head compliantly, “Boss, I’m assured now that I’ve taken a look at you.”
“Don’t look so down. It’s not like we’ll never meet again.” Sima You Yue said.
“Boss, when you come to the inner regions, remember to come look for me!” Qi Wei gave her some information so she could look for him when she came to the inner regions.
At this moment, the mother-stone inside her interspatial ring moved.
