Chapter 306
Upon hearing what Little Si said, everyone behind Li Mu inhaled sharply.
Who was this Sima You Yue, and how dare he speak to Li Mu like that ?!
Li Mu, upon hearing Sima You Yue’s name, went silent before telling Little Si, “Get people to force those people out of Ten Thousand Beast Mountain.”
With that, he walked toward the Alchemy Guild, he was holding back his anger… no one dared to go within a three metre radius of him.
“That’s the direction of the Alchemy Guild.” Someone from the Li clan said.
“Isn’t he going to find that Sima You Yue?”
“It’s just ending like that?”
The entire Li clan was confused. Was he not going back to put Sima You Yue back in his place? This wasn’t like him at all!
Only a few of them at the Alchemist Guild knew the real reason.
If he actually went to look for Sima You Yue now, there was no need to even talk about putting him in his place, but he had to call him ‘Big Brother’ because of bet that he lost!
Sima You Yue and the rest stayed awhile at the Lu Clan’s place for a while before moving off. What she did not expect was that Wu Lingyu actually wanted to go back with her.
“What are you coming with me for!” Sima You Yue glared at Wu Lingyu.
“Obviously, to send you off safely.” Wu Lingyu said, smiling.
“Forget it, I’ll be even more unsafe with you around.” Sima You Yue rejected him.
“From the looks of it, I’m the senior brother, you’re the younger disciple brother, so you’d definitely be safe! I wouldn’t do anything to you, or are you saying that you would do something to me?” Wu Lingyu looked at her as if he was afraid.
Sima You Yue’s face turned dark, what was this punk saying!
“If I were to head out with you, I’d definitely be in big trouble. I don’t like being watched like a monkey in a circus. You’d better hurry on your way, Your Holy Highness!” Sima You Yue reached out her hand to shove Wu Lingyu away.
Everyone in the Lu Clan broke out into buckets of cold sweat as they listened in on their conversation. This pair of disciple brothers were simply too queer!
In the end, Wu Lingyu didn’t go with Sima You Yue. He quickly left before Sima You Yue’s face turned dark.
“Lu Ming, are you really not coming with us to the Sima House?” Sima You Le asked the four brothers.
“No matter what, this is our home.”said Lu Ming, “Also, I think it won’t be long before Li Mu comes and causes trouble. As long as he doesn’t personally come here himself, we should be able to handle him.”
“Alright then, be careful.”
When Sima You Yue and the rest had arrived home, they relayed the news of how defeated Li Mu’s underlings to the entire region.
“Not bad, they just came here to Saint City, but already faced the wrath of our Sima Clan.” Sima You Yang mocked.
Sima You Yue headed straight for a seat, saying “We’ve indeed directly opposed the Alchemy Guild this time, do you want me to leave? Before I get everyone in trouble.”
“Tch…” Sima You Yang rolled his eyes at her, and said “I’ve spoken to Uncle Ren already, our relationship with the Alchemy Guild was never good anyways, don’t take it to heart.”
“I initially intended to run away, but I see I don’t need to anymore.” said Sima You Yue with a smile.
Sima You Yang rubbed his temples, this rascal! He really knew no shame!
“The Li clan of the Northern Yan Kingdom and our clan have always been on uncertain terms. Be careful when you go out. Look out for their dirty tricks.” he warned.
“Got it.” Sima You Yue waved her hand, saying “You Yang, I just realized it today, you’re rather nosy, always nagging, you should just be like You Lin; a quiet pretty boy.”
To this, You Lin remained calm, was this rascal teasing him?
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll go take a rest.” Sima You Yue looked at the both of them, laughed secretly, and left quickly.
Everyone was talking about Li Mu’s underlings being defeated. They were curious why Li Mu was staying quiet about the matter, did he not have any reaction?
Once everyone knew about what happened at Dragon Reflection Town, they were surprised that there was actually someone that beat Li Mu. The person was only twenty two, talented indeed!
Two days later, the Sima clan along with the rest arrived at the Saint City. The moment they arrived, they heard news of Sima You Yue beating Li Mu. Each and every single one of the old men were happy. They should be proud for the clan to have such a talent.
“Thankfully, we didn’t quarrel that badly then. If we did, this talent wouldn’t be part of the Sima clan now!” This was what most of the people of the Sima clan secretly thought.
Over the next few days, the second rate powers entered Saint City. Everyone heard of the incident and of Sima You Yue, and were curious about her.
The elders, being different from young people, naturally knew that Li Mu from the alchemy guild had a lot of talent. Now, someone younger than him actually beat him.
When did the Sima Clan obtain such a treasure.
As such, Sima You Yue’s story was dug out. They found out that this youth came from Dong Chen Kingdom and caused so much trouble in the Sima clan, helped Ouyang Fei secure the South Eclipse Kingdom and defeated Li Mu at Dragon Reflection Town. Each and every single one of these events left people dumbfounded.
The next few days when Sima You Yue went out, she found that she was treated like a circus monkey with everyone pointing fingers and whispering at her. She felt very gloomy and decided to stay in until the grand meeting to practise and train.
Initially, it was supposed to be peace and quiet until she left the area, but the things that happened after made her look forward to departing from Ten Thousand Beast Mountain.
That day, Sima You Yue had not left the capital, yet she felt some sort of spiritual force present. She immediately broke out of her state of meditation and flung the doors open.
“Master, you have returned.” Sima You Yue saw Old Man Devil cradling a bird in his arms, and cried out in alarm “Halcyon? What happened to Halcyon?”
“Go back to your house first.” Initially, Old Man Devil intended to hand Halcyon over to Sima You Yue, but after remembering that she was a girl, he brought Halcyon in himself.
Even if it was a male beast, he couldn’t just let his disciple hug him.
“Alright.” Sima You Yue moved aside, allowing them to come in.
Old Man Devil laid Halcyon out on Sima You Yue’s bed and said “I bumped into him downstairs. By the time I found him, he was already unconscious. When I realized that he was your friend, I just took him with me.”
“Master, are his injuries serious?” Sima You Yue who didn’t know how to check a spirit beast for injuries, and asked Old Man Devil.
Old Man Devil was silent for a while before he answered “His injuries are serious, yes, I should say that he can no longer be saved. He can’t even regain consciousness!”
Rainbow, who was able to sense Halcyon’s breath heard Old Man Devil’s words and came swooping down from the skies in an instant. “No, nothing will happen to my husband! He will be fine!”
Sima You Yue walked over and held Rainbow in her arms, she stroked the feathers on her back to calm her down. “Master, is there no way to save him?”
Old Man Devil shook his head and said “His injuries are too serious, all his organs are completely shattered, his chances of survival are too slim, no medicine can save him.”
Sima You Yue’s head spun, was there really no way to save him?
“Wahhh——no! I don’t want my husband to die.” Rainbow flew into a frenzy, she threw herself at Halcyon’s side and wailed loudly.
Sima You Yue looked at the dying Halcyon, a sharp pain shot through her heart, this all happened too fast, she couldn’t take it.
