Chapter 732 - Protecting Her
“Cough cough, about this… let’s go back.” Sima You Yue coughed twice, ignoring their sights.
“Who is this Ancestor Feng?” Fan Lei directly asked.
Sima You Yue shook her head. “I don’t know her identity. I never asked.”
“Then how could she leave you a soul mark? This is not ordinary protection.”
“Because I saved her life. But she wasn’t completely cured, so she wants to protect my life.” Sima You Yue answered.
“Alright, if you’re curious, you can ask later. Let’s go back and treat them.” Xu Jin said.
“Master, I’ll entrust Fatty to you.” Sima You Yue said.
“Just take care of yourself.” Xu Jin snorted, agreeing to her request.
Yuan Shao Jie went back first with You Yue and Fatty Qu. The rest of them went back by themselves.
“Come on. Let’s go back too.” Tuoba Wu Chen said. “I didn’t expect her luck to be better. Her luck is better than ours.”
Feng Zhi Xing nodded in agreement. “That’s good. This way, those two can be earlier…”
He didn’t go on for the other half of what he said.
Tuoba Wu Chen sighed sadly when he saw him like this.
“Wait till she’s better. I will go back.” Feng Zhi Xing suddenly spoke.
“What? You want to go back?” Tuoba Wu Chen almost choked. “Since then, you haven’t been back. They sent so many messages, but you ignored them. Why are you thinking about going back now?”
“Because she will go there sooner or later.” Feng Zhi Xing replied.
“Sigh…” Tuoba Wu Chen sighed again. That year, you left there because of indignation at her mother, and now you’re going back because of her.”
“It’s not all for her.” Feng Zhi Xing said. “Don’t you think this matter happened because we’re too weak?”
“True, if it wasn’t for our lack of strength, how could a hundred or two hundred of forces force us to watch on the side.” Tuoba Wu Chen also was deeply affected by today’s event. “I can cultivate faster when I go back there. Sigh, now that you have decided to go back. Then I should also go back. It would be bad in case you left in the dust.”
Feng Zhi Xing glanced at Tuoba Wu Chen. “Your old man will be very happy.”
“Don’t mention him. I feel stifled whenever he’s mentioned. Come on, let’s go check on her situation.” Tuoba Wu Chen hopped on his flying beast and left ahead.
The ten great evils followed them back to Green City. They did not go see Sima You Yue, instead they returned to their previous courtyard.
It wasn’t because the people of Heavenly Sect didn’t notice them. Rather before Sima You Yue’s words before she left that saved them from a fight.
She said, “These people are part of my mission. You old guys, don’t snatch them from us.”
When Feng Zhi Xing and the rest arrived at Green City, several days had passed after that day. Sima You Yue had recovered a lot. Fatty Qu no longer needed to reshape his bones, but he still needed more time to require. He was still in bed.
“Master, uncle Wu Chen.” Sima You Yue obediently saluted when she saw Feng Zhi Xing and Tuoba Wu Chen.
“You recovered very fast!” Tuoba Wu Chen was alright and chucked.
“Mm, with master Xu, recovery is much better.” Sima You Yue said.
“We came to find you today is to say goodbye to you.” Feng Zhi Xing started.
“Master is going back?”
“This time, I’m returning to my family clan, but to the inter region.” Feng Zhi Xing replied.
“Go to the inner regions? Why is master thinking of going to the inner regions?” Sima You Yue was surprised. If he went to the inner regions, she wouldn’t be able to see him again in a short period?
“I’m originally from the inner regions.” Feng Zhi Xing explained. “Because of some things, I left the inner regions. Now I have received news from over there, I need to go back.”
“Oh.” Sima You Yue lowered her head dejectedly. “Then master go. When I am stronger, I will go see you.”
“Okay.” Feng Zhi Xing rubbed her head. “You’ll go to the inner regions, and I will wait for you there. But if your strength is not high level monarch rank, you can’t go.”
“Mm.” Sima You Yue nodded.
When Tuoba Wu Chen saw their parting looks, he suddenly felt a little sad. Although he lost that person that year, her daughter’s attachment to him was only partially.
“Master, is my father and mother inside the inner regions?” Sima You Yue asked.
“Your father was someone of Sima family from the inner regions. Perhaps, you will meet them later.” Feng Zhi Xing said. “Their clothes have the same pattern as your spatial ring.”
Sima You Yue rubbed her spatial ring. She knew that this must be related to her family.
“Then, master, how are my father’s family?” She asked again.
Asking about their well being first, so when she encountered them later, she would know how to get along with those people.
“They’re okay.” Feng Zhi Xing hesitated. “But if they are okay, it’s not for us to say. You’ll have to see for yourself.”
In the past, he thought they were good, but that incident left him disappointed. But no matter what he thought, they were all her family, and she needed to judge for herself.
“I understand.” Sima You Yue nodded. “I’ll see for myself.”
Based on her understanding of Feng Zhi Xing, it must be that something that couldn’t be said clearly had hurt him before. That was why he gave them such an evaluation.
“Alright, we’re leaving. I will leave you with some people.” Feng Zhi Xing said. “They are all my men. They don’t belong to the Feng family. They will be yours in the future. Whatever you want to do in the future, you can let them do it and bring them wherever you go. You offended so many forces that day. Master can’t leave without feeling assured.
He blew his whistle, and ten people entered, each of them possessed high-level monarch rank strength.
“Young master.” The ten people saluted her.
“Pledge.” Feng Zhi Xing lightly said, but there was stateliness that could not be violated in his utterance.
The ten people knelt on one knee, holding their hands to their chest and spoke in unison. “I am willing to follow young master, recognize young master as lord, protect young master, and never betray him.”
Their pledge fell and silver light entered their chests.
Before Sima You Yue had time to stop them, their pledge was complete. Now she couldn’t not take them with her.
“Master…” She was helpless. She wanted to say that she didn’t need these people at all. He wanted to go to the inner regions, shouldn’t he bring more people back?
“I brought them out of the inner regions. They have traveled to quite a few places with me over these years and have a wide range of knowledge.” Feng Zhi Xing said. “If you have problems in the future, you can ask them.”
After speaking, he told the ten people again, “Follow her, and you won’t regret it in the future.”
“Zhi Xing, we should go, or we won’t be able to catch the ship.” Tuoba Wu Chen urged.
Feng Zhi Xing nodded and rubbed her head before leaving with Tuoba Wu Chen.
