Although some people didn’t want to attend the banquet, many of them turned up for the Yang Clan’s sake.

Sima You Yue wore a long jade green dress with her hair worn in a bun held with a hair clasp along with the same coloured earrings. Although her dressing was simple, it made others feel comfortable.

She sat quietly at the corner of the banquet holding her wine cup as she quietly watched the crowd that attended the banquet.

“Can I have a seat?”

Sima You Yue looked up to see Su You’s smiling face.

“As you wish.” She shrugged her shoulders, it wasn’t her territory anyway.

Su You sat beside her holding a wine glass and said, “I saw you looking at these people just now, what are you looking at?”

“Just thinking, why did the Yang Clan spend so much on the Great Ore Meeting?” Sima You You continued, “How does spending money and putting effort benefit them?”

“I guess they’re going for the antique things.” Su You said.

“Oh? Why do you think so?” Sima You Yue turned her head and looked at her.

“From what I know, the Yang Clan went to look for a few forces from the end of the meeting yesterday to before the start of the banquet.” Su You continued, “They have something special in common.”

“All the ores that they opened were ancient ones?”

“Not only that, but those forces got ancient sage medicine when they opened it. So I guessed they might look for you if you hadn’t put that sage medicine for auction in Xuan Yuan Pavilion.” Su You guessed.

“They got all of it?”

“Some of the forces that were not as strong as them will be unable to get through their pressure. But some of them were unfortunate. They don’t have a charisma like you, giving sage medicine away just like that. So they kept it, but it was taken away by the Yang Clan.”

Sima You Yue felt the sarcasm in his words and laughed, “Why keep something that I can’t protect? It will attract disaster instead.”

“But not everyone is as open minded as you.” Su You somehow admired her because he might not be able to take it out easily if it was him.

Sima You Yue smiled without responding.

“You’ll definitely be the first, I’m afraid that ancient spirit beast will attract others attention.” Su You warned.

“It will be Uncle He’s apparently, they won’t look for me.” Sima You Yue said.

After knowing that he had Little Realm, she felt that she couldn’t underestimate He clan’s power, it wouldn’t be a problem if they wanted to obtain a stone statue. No one would be able to return alive if they tried to snatch it.

“Aren’t you worried that you’ll be caught by the Yang Clan if Uncle He doesn’t come back?” Su You asked when Sima You Yue became silent.

Sima You Yue frowned slightly, she felt that Su You was looking for a topic to talk about. Was he trying to get close to her?

“Aunt He is your Aunt, aren’t you worried?” She asked in reply.

Su You sighed helplessly upon seeing the distance in her eyes. Initially, he heard that she was close to Yin Lang so why did she put up a guard on him?

“What’s there to worry when I know they will be fine? I’m going now, goodbye.” Nobody knew why Sima You Yue wouldn’t get close to Su You, even if he was Su Liu Nian’s nephew.

At this time, Su Liu Nian and He Zhen Zhang walked over and said while watching Sima You Yue’s back, “Did you offend her?”

Su You didn’t want to talk about this so he asked, “Uncle, Aunt, how was it?”

“We can’t be absent for long, so we didn’t manage to get any information.” Su Liu Nian continued, “We’re worried that the Yang Clan will do something to her when we are not around.”

“The Yang Clan looked displeased at her, no one greeted her.” Su You wanted to keep her company seeing that no one talked to her.

“Since she’s going back, let’s go back too.”

Sima You Yue didn’t actually go back. She was targeted once she left the banquet.

She walked and halted, turned around the corner and walked into an alley. The guys followed up but noticed that the scene changed before his eyes after stepping to the alley.

“Damn it!” Their faces changed when they saw a plain field.

This should be an alley but a plain field appeared, this meant that they were hallucinating.

“Could this be a mirage?”

“It’s an illusion array.” Someone said affirmably.

“How can this be? She just came in not long ago, how could she put up an illusion array?”

They had been monitoring her for two days, she never came here before, it was impossible that she put up an illusion array in advance. How could it possibly be that she fixed up an illusion array in a few minutes?!

“Wonder if she is in the array.”

Sima You Yue appeared on the hillock before them right after he spoke.

“Are you asking about me?” Sima You Yue smiled lightly.

This made their heart sink when she appeared as and when she liked. This meant that she was in absolute control with this illusion array.

“Who sent you? Let me guess, the Yang Clan?” Sima You Yue looked at their facial expressions, “Seemed like I guessed wrongly, then it must be Dan Yu Xi.”

Other than Dan Yu Xi, she didn’t have any other enemies here. It must be the Dan Clan that would send someone to kill her.

“Previously, I heard Dan Yu Xi has a wilful character, arrogant and despotic, taking revenge for an angry look. I thought that was over, I didn’t expect that you will be waiting for me here!” Sima You Yue sneered, “It’s a pity that you guys won’t be able to complete the mission for her today.” Sima You Yue sneered, that smile gave them chills.

Half an hour later, Sima You Yue came out of the alley with no one following her. Not long after, someone went into the small alley and saw the few corpses on the ground.

On the second day after the banquet, the result for the assembly was out, Sima You Yue’s sage medicine got first without a doubt and, quickly, a stone statue was sent into He Zhen Zhang’s hands.

“You Yue, this is for you.” He Zhen Zhang brought the stone statue into Sima You Yue’s room after those people left.

Sima You Yue accepted the stone stature after she hesitated for a while.

This was originally her reward for the sage medicine, He Zhen Zhang and the rest would find it strange if she rejected it.

A while later, Xuan Yuan Pavilion’s manager came to the inn and passed her the auction list personally.

“You could have just got the waiter to pass it to me so you wouldn’t have to trouble yourself.” Sima You Yue smiled as she kept the list.

“This is what I should do.” Manager smiled, “The higher ups sent two Paragon rank members as they heard that you brought the sage medicine to auction.”

“Sorry to trouble you.”

“We will try to advertise for this half a year, Young Miss, let me know if you need anything.”

“Is it possible to save a room for me?”

“We definitely will.”

“That’s great.” Sima You Yue smiled.

This auction would be lively, she wanted to invite her clan to join.
