Chapter 309 - Why do you treat me so well
“Master, isn’t this place a continent? How did it become a land of imprisonment?” Sima You Yue was speechless.
“I didn’t know back then, but I have a vague idea now.” Old man Devil said, “It’s because this place contains a vicious beast, so this place must be its prison. Even if they escape, they won’t be able to harm other continents.”
“Are you talking about the one below the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain?” Sima You Yue sat up straight and asked while looking at Old Man Devil, “Master, I never asked you before, but what did you see at the bottom of that lake? Did you see the creature there?”
“Possibly.” Old Man Devil’s expression was solemn once she brought up this topic, saying, “Actually, I didn’t manage to see that creature.”
“What?!”
This time, it was not only Sima You Yue who was in shock, but even Wu Lingyu’s expression was grim, “Old Man, is that creature below that powerful?”
Old Man Devil nodded, saying, “I’m guessing that the creature was definitely a very strong one. That’s why even up till now, I can’t defeat it. Just a feel of its aura terrifies me. The closer I get, the stronger that feeling is.”
“So strong!” Sima You Yue’s jaw was about to hit the floor.
Wu Lingyu was way more surprised that Sima You Yue was because he knew how powerful Old Man Devil was. Since even he spoke this way, what did that mean for that thing below!
“Actually, I have a feeling that I was only halfway there.” Old Man Devil said, “I don’t know what happened to Halcyon. I found him at the place where I was at my limit. He could actually reach that place as well.”
“Master, don’t scare me. This thing is so powerful. Wouldn’t we be finished if it came out one day!” Sima You Yue said.
“Relax, it’s still a long time before that thing gets out. You won’t be able to bump into it now.” Old Man Devil said.
“Since we still have time, then there’s no point in you thinking about it. We might as well think about heading to the little realm.” Wu Lingyu said.
Right now, there was no use in thinking about these kinds of this. It would affect her state of heart during cultivation.
Once he mentioned about the little realm, Sima You Yue became depressed again. This place was just a prison. This whole place was. Even space was restricted here. This robbed them of so much resources to cultivate. It was so unfair.
“Since you say that this continent has no entrance, how am I supposed to enter.”
“You fool, haven’t you thought of who I am!” Old Man Devil said, “Even if there isn’t an entrance, I can make one for you.”
“Master is so formidable!” Sima You Yue beamed as she flattered him.
How could she not know that since Old Man Devil and Wu Lingyu had already told this to her, they would naturally have thought of a way. It was just that she was always used to thinking of methods herself or she had to be the one bringing Fatty Qu and the others along. Now that others were thinking on behalf, helping her to create a good opportunity to cultivate, she was extremely moved.
“You both, wait for me here. I’m going back to take a look.” Old Man Devil said as he formed a seal with both hands. A portal appeared on the ground in front of him and closed the moment he stepped inside.
“Master returned to the Primordial Lands?” Sima You Yue said with envy.
“Once you are strong enough, you will be able to make this kind of portal as well.” Wu Lingyu said, “Right now, let me tell you about some information about those continents and little realms.”
“Okay.”
When she heard the information that Wu Lingyu had given her, Sima You Yue finally realised how disastrous this continent was!
She had felt that her rate of rank advancement was fast enough, but Wu Lingyu told her that the others in the other continents were not that much slower than she was. One’s true talent could only be seen after Divine Rank. That was because there were many people whose talents were not bad, but needed an extremely long time to advance even a small rank once they reached divine rank. However, some really were powerful. Those young experts like Wu Lingyu were not that rare either.
Sima You yue was a bit put off. In the past, she still thought that she was really impressive. However, she finally realised that she was still a long way off!
“Don’t be angry. Your battle abilities are really unparalleled at this stage. Adding on to that your contracted beasts, it wouldn’t be a problem for you to walk about sideways along these little realms!” Wu Lingyu said.
“What do you mean to walk around sideways, I’m not some crab!” Sima You Yue glared at him.
“Enough, I’ve already said all there is to say. Do you have any other problems?” Wu Lingyu asked.
“I do.” Sima You Yue continued to ask, “Will all those people from the continent head to the Primordial lands?”
“Yeah.”
“Then don’t those Primordial Lands have a lot of people? Will it be really crowded?”
“The Primordial Lands are more than you can imagine. You’ll know once you head up.”
“Okay then.” His reply was the same as having not replied.
“Any other questions?” Wu Lingyu asked.
“I do.”
“Shoot.”
“Why are you so nice to me? Is it because you want me to forget my grievance towards you?”
Wu Lingyu was silent for a while. How was he supposed to tell her that he wanted her to grow up quickly so she could quickly head to the world up there.
“That’s because the old man will be pressured to find someone to take over.” Wu Lingyu found a better excuse, “Do you still have any questions?”
“No more, you can go now.” Sima You Yue waved her hands to send him off, then lay down to rest.
“…”
Wu Lingyu saw that Sima You Yue immediately disregarded him and really wanted to go up and scold her. However, thinking about how it would frighten her, he decided to forget it and left obediently.
Of course, in order to avoid suspicion, he left the same way he came… through the window.
Sima You Yue lay on the bed and tossed around, thinking about the information that she obtained today. She had heard too much today, and needed to ponder over it carefully. She thought about how Wu Lingyu talked about the other continents and immediately sat upright, saying, “Even if those people are powerful, I’m not weak either. Why should I be so affected by this? Hmph hmph, even if I bump into them, if they dare to mess with me, I’ll trash them like I did everyone else!”
After thinking it through, she lay down again and continued ponder over these things.
“I never thought that the entire continent would be a prison. Really makes one depressed.”
“I wonder when that little realm will open. I kind of want to meet the geniuses of the other worlds.”
“When will I be able to be like Master and Senior Brother. With one wave of a hand, they can create a portal. They can go wherever they want whenever they want.”
“Sigh, it’s pointless to think of these things. I might as well cultivate properly!”
“Halcyon, that guy. My wounds haven’t healed yet but I haven’t even caught a glimpse of him.”
“Where did you take my Little Rainbow to! It’s strange but I really miss her.”
“Creak-”
The door opened, and Bei Gong Tang carried in something for her to eat. She said with a smile, “I could hear you complaining from outside. You must be really bored since you can’t cultivate.”
Sima You Yue smelled the dishes and sat up on the bed after a while, saying, “I’m been bored to death since the few of you haven’t come to accompany me.”
Bei Gong Tang placed the dishes on the table and ignored her, “From what I know, your Master and Senior Brother left here not long ago.”
“I was bored the moment they left.” Sima You Yue took a pair of chopsticks as she came over and began to eat, “Right, have you guys been busy? I haven’t seen any of you around.”
