Chapter 1202 - Looking for the heart of the ancient battlefield

“You guys don’t have to worry. I’m just placing a restriction on you.” Qing Yi said, “This restriction will not usually do anything to you, but the moment you want to speak about us, it will restrict your movements. The first time, it will forbid you from speaking. However, the next time you think about it, it will take your life.”The expressions of Senior Elder and the others changed. This was simply distrusting them.

“Can we not tell a single person?” Someone asked.

“You cannot tell a single person. Not a single one.” Qing Yi glanced at Sima You Yue, who kept him away into the spirit pagoda before turning to Sima Liu Feng, “Uncle Liu Yun, Uncle Liu Feng, since there is nothing else, my cousin and I will be leaving.”

“Will you not be journeying with us?” Senior Elder asked.

“We won’t. I still have something I need to do.” Sima You Yue rejected him directly.

“What is that? Could we help?” Senior Elder asked with a smile, “This place is so dangerous and there are so little of you. It’s too dangerous.”

“How would that do.” Sima You Yue said, “This is our personal issue, we couldn’t drag you into it.”

“What is there to drag in or not, you are part of our Sima Clansmen. Our clan will naturally help to share your burdens.” Senior Elder said.

Sima You Yue sneered inwardly. Her, a part of the Sima Clan? Why didn’t she know about that!

“Senior Elder, you must be kidding. How could I be a part of the Sima Clan? I merely came from the continent below. How could I dare climb into the ranks of the Sima Clan? Aren’t you just playing with me?”

“The blood of the Sima Clan flows in your veins, so you are from the Sima Clan.” Senior Elder said with confidence, “No matter what happened in the past, the blood that flows in you cannot be changed.”

“Is that so? Then why did I hear that some people wanted to kill me?” Sima You Yue said, “If I were a member of this clan, shouldn’t we be getting along well?”

“Who dares to kill you? When I return, I will definitely report the matter to the clan leader and throw them all out.” Senior Elder said.

“Not right not, but I heard that when I was just a baby, I almost lost my life a few times when I returned to the clan. Senior Elder, did you know about that?” Sima You Yue said.

The smile on Senior Elder’s face faltered a little and said, “At that time, it happened because the clan was in chaos and whatever some people took the opportunity to do, I am not too certain of. However, I can promise you that this sort of thing will never happen again.”

“Let’s talk about the future, in the future.’ Sima You Yue said, “I have some things to do. I will take my leave for now.”

“Sigh...” Senior Elder wanted to say otherwise, but Sima You Yue had already turned around to leave.

“Senior Elder, You Yue’s personality is just like this. She bears a grudge for what happened back then, which is why she is like this now. She’ll be fine once she joins the clan.” Sima Liu Feng said.

“What happened back then... Sigh!” Senior Elder sighed, “It isn’t easy to talk about this now either. The clan over at that side shouldn’t have much of an opinion.”

Sima Liu Yu and Sima Liu Feng felt a thread of disdain rise up in their hearts when they heard what he said.

The people at that side would be beyond themselves with joy. How could they possibly have an opinion.

“However, she has truly suffered a lot these few years. It won’t be easy for her to accept the clan.” Sima Liu Feng said, “When we first found out more news about her, we were rather moved. She has truly been through a lot.”

“Have you already found out more news about her?”

“Yes, when we first found out about her, we sent men to investigate.” Sima Liu Feng said.

“Oh? Tell us then, about her. The more detail the better. This way, when we go back to the clan, we will be able to convince them more easily.” Senior Elder said.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“We have already arranged the information neatly.” Sima Liu Yun took out a thick stack of papers, “On it dictates the experiences she’s been through. Once you’ve read through it, you will understand. To compare those geniuses of the clan to her is simply highlighting their insignificance.

Senior Elder took the papers and looked through it. He had only flipped through a few pages, but his shock was clear to see.

“Did she do all of these? This is simply too inconceivable! Is this really something a tiny person like her can do?”

“If you don’t believe it, you can send men to check it out. After all, the things that she has done is not something you can just bury.” Sima Liu Yun said.

Senior Elder didn’t speak, but he really did think this way. When he returned, he would definitely have to get his men to check it out to ascertain whether or not she truly was the one behind all of it.

If she was, then her talent...

“Senior Elder, this place is so dangerous, but she is unwilling to let everyone go with her. Why don’t you let me and Liu Yun help her?” Sima Liu Feng said, “If anything happens, we will be able to protect her.”

Senior Elder pondered over it for a moment and said, “Go ahead. You definitely have to protect her and let her leave this place safely.”

“We will.”

After speaking, the two of them flew off in Sima You Yue’s direction.

Sima You Yue had left with Di Zhe and the others, and they had no idea whether or not the direction they had chosen to leave in was their desired destination. They merely wanted to avoid going in the same direction as the Sima Clan.

Sima Liu Feng and Sima Liu Yun caught up, which wasn’t surprising to Sima You Yue. They probably said that they would come to take care of her and wouldn’t leave halfway.

“Is there anything you want to do or any direction you want to head in?” She asked the others.

“No idea.” Sima Liu Feng said, “Sigh, Di Zhe, aren’t you from the ghost clan as well? You should know which areas have more ghosts right?”

“This isn’t the ghost realm, alright. How would I know.” Di Zhe said, “When we came in, we were just following the rumors spread before. We don’t even know if they’re true!”

“I just want to know where most of the ghosts will gather, and which places require us to do what. Isn’t there something here we can just ask.” Di Zhe looked pointedly at Devil’s Blood lying in her embrace.

Everyone’s gaze on it and said, “Will it be able to bring us to the heart of the ancient battlefield?”

“Who knows, this guy might really know.” Sima Liu Yun said, “You Yue, ask it whether or not it knows.”

“Alright.” Sima You Yue carried Devil’s Blood and said, “Do you know which area has the most ghosts?”

Devil’s Blood blinked its eyes, as if it didn’t understand what she meant, so she repeated it twice more.

“Wu wu..”

Devil’s Blood rubbed Sima You Yue’s hand then pointed its head in a specific direction and called out twice, telling them that there were many ghosts in that place.

“It looks so cute like that. If it appears in that state, nobody will be able to guess its identity.” Sima Liu Feng said.

“I can sense that something is being sealed inside it.” Sima You YUe said, “It really does seem like it had been sealed by the heavenly law.”
