Chapter 1289 - Shameless Clan Leader Sima

Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Few days after, Sima You Yue stayed in her room and rarely went out. The only time she came out was to keep Sima Zhi Yuan company occasionally.

Initially, she asked Sima Liu Feng and the rest to keep him company, but the unruly Sima Liu Feng and the arrogant Sima Liu Yun were ridiculously obedient in front of them. The indecent one became decent, the arrogant one became unreserved, both of them became obedient babies.

But Sima Zhi Yuan didn’t like his own Grandsons and insisted Sima You Yue keep him company. He always used affections as an excuse that made Sima You Yue difficult to reject him.

Even so, the time she could accompany them wasn’t long.

A few days later, she could see that Sima Zhi Yuan didn’t have the intention to leave and mentioned it subconsciously when they were testing tea.

“Great Grandfather, how are the clan and Gu’s clan?” She used a pair of tongs and put the tea cups in front of him and asked it in an apparently subconscious manner.

“Gu’s clan actually used shady methods behind our backs, so they have to accept our rage. Now the clan is pressuring them, there would be fights sometimes, but it’s not to the extent where there will be death.” Although Sima Zhi Yuan was in seclusion most of the time, he knew everything about the clan.

“Gu’s clan is one of the largest clans in the inner regions right? You guys are at ease leaving an Elder there to handle it even though it’s not a big fight?” Sima You Yue said.

“You this little girl, you want us to go, right?” Sima Zhi Yuan continued, “I feel comfortable staying here, I don’t feel like leaving. Why don’t the few of you go back first?”

“I’ll be in seclusion even if I go back, I’d rather learn through experience outside, it might even help me to advance in rank.”

These Clan Elders didn’t want to go back too, since the Clan Leader wasn’t there, everything would be in their hands if they went back, they wouldn’t want that!

Although they resisted, they didn’t manage to resist Sima Zhi Yuan’s threats and bribery. A few of the Clan Elders were chased back home and some other Sima clan members were brought back too, except Sima Liu Feng and Sima Liu Yun.

Baita came in from outside. He went over rapidly after seeing that Sima You Yue was drinking tea with them, “Vice Valley Master, Tuoba Clan and a few of the Guild Elders came.”

“Looking for me?” Where’s Feng’er and the rest?” Sima You Yue asked.

“Valley Master brought Bi Sheng and the rest out. The President said that they wanted to see your condition after what happened half a month ago.” Baita said.

“I got it. Go tell them I’ll be right there.”

“Alright.” Baita went out again.

Sima You Yue looked at Sima Zhi Yuan and said, “I’ll head out for a while, you guys....”

“Go ahead, you don’t have to mind us.” Sima Zhi Yuan said.

“I should be back quickly.” Sima You Yue nodded at them, stood up and left.

Wu Lingyu wanted to get up and go together but he was stopped by Sima Zhi Yuan.

“Lingyu, I heard you’re good at brewing tea, why don’t you stay here and taste tea with us.”

Sima You Yue was stunned and said, “Why don’t you stay here with Great Grandfather.”

Wu Lingyu took the hint, he turned back and sat down as he said,” It’s my honour to drink with Clan Leader Sima. You You, you can go ahead and do your things.”

Sima You Yue took a glance at them, nodded, turned around and went out.

Wu Lingyu sat down, he took out new tea leaves and started brewing after seeing that the tea was almost finished.

“Clan Leader Sima, is there anything you want to tell me?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Sima Zhi Yuan said while he looked at Wu Lingyu’s gaze, “I heard about you and You Yue. You are talented and treat her well, but, you’re the Holy Son of Sage Pavilion, have you ever thought that it would bring her trouble since Sage Pavilion and Sima clan have always been in bad terms?”

His tone was cold, it seemed like he didn’t agree to their relationship.

Wu Lingyu laughed and said, “Clan Leader Sima, why are you so sure that it will bring her trouble if we are together?”

“Isn’t it? Or, are you willing to give up your identity?”

Sima Liu Feng and Sima Liu Yun didn’t feel good about the atmosphere, but they couldn’t say anything. They also wanted to see what Wu Lingyu had to say.

On the other side, Sima You Yue came to the front hall, she saw Tuoba Hong Ye and a few of the Guild Presidents were having tea together, even Xiao Hong, Tuoba Han and a few younger generations were there.

She put on her gloves and cloak before she came out, when she walked into the hall, everyone could only see her silhouette.

“I’m sorry, I came late because I needed to prepare. I hope Clan Leader Tuoba and all the Presidents can forgive me.” She apologized once she stepped in.

Everyone thought that her body should be alright seeing her being agile.

“We’re here to see how you’re doing, have your injuries healed?” Xia Chang Tian asked.

“The injuries are almost fully recovered, but my skin hasn’t fully recovered yet, so I don’t dare to see anyone for now.” Sima You Yue said casually.

“You should be fully recovered soon seeing you like this. Initially we were all worried when you were hurt, at least we can be at ease for now.” Xiao Hong said.

They didn’t doubt what she said since they saw how badly she was injured that day, being able to stay alive was already a miracle, it was surprising enough to recover in such a short period of time. They would be horrified if they knew that she was fully recovered.

Sima You Yue saw the sincere care in Xiao Hong’s gaze and her heart became warm. “Oh right, is the passage being settled? Those from the ghost clan won’t come again, right?”

“The passage has been sealed again, those that were being controlled become conscious. Everything has finally ended.” Tuoba Hong Ye said.

“We have to thank you for this, if you weren’t there, the human beings would face a catastrophe.” Xue Chang Lin continued, “So other than checking up on you, we also want to show our appreciation.”

“President Xue, you’re too courteous, we are also part of the human beings, it’s my duty to help.” Sima You Yue’s also came up with formalities.

“But you almost lost your life with this and we could only watch from the outside, giving you such huge responsibilities with your age, we as the elders are guilty.” Fang Ming Yu said dully.

“President Fang, it will be overwhelming for You Yue if you put it this way!” Sima You Yue placed her hands together, “If you put it this way, I’ll have to find a hole to dig and hide in.”

“Aiya, you guys don’t have to stand on ceremony, You Yue will get embarrassed if you continue saying that.” Xia Chang Tian continued, “You Yue, since you’re almost recovered, let’s talk about serious matters!”

“Yes, let’s talk about serious matters.”

After speaking, everyone’s eyes were set on her.....
