Sima You Yue looked around and said, “Why do I feel that this place seems very familiar?”

Xiao Ruo Bai and Mu Kai En also stopped in their tracks and looked back at her.

“Familiar? Have you been here before?” Gongzi Yuan asked.

Sima You Yue shook her head, “I don’t know, I don’t have any memory, but I feel a sense of familiarity.”

“Could this be the place where you were hunted down?” Xiao Ruo Bai asked.

“There are no traces of fighting here, it should not be the place where she was hunted down.” Mu Kai En denied this statement, “Could it be that you did something here before?”

Sima You Yue still shook her head, her memories before she became sober in the City Lord Manor were very vague, and she didn’t know what was special about this place. She saw that the terrain here was average and the spirit power was average, there should be nothing worthy of her attention.

She continued to walk forward, turned a corner, and was stunned when she saw the scenery in front of her.

“What a huge field of mandala flowers!” Xiao Ruo Bai exclaimed in surprise.

Sima You Yue saw the mandala flowers in the valley, and finally knew why she felt that this place was familiar.

In her vague memory, the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was this large expanse of mandala flowers.

At that time, she was muddled and unconscious, and left without thinking about it. Thinking about it now, her Ancestor would not send her here casually for no reason, so there should be something here.

She walked to the centre of the field of flowers and arrived at the place where she woke up according to her memory as she saw that there were traces of her lying down.

“Xi’er, do you remember anything?”

“No, I just think there should be something here, it’s as if I had been here in a dream before.” Sima You Yue reached out and searched on the ground for a while, but didn’t find anything out of the ordinary.

Suddenly, her hand touched the ground and felt that it was very warm, different from the rest of the ground.

“Hmm?” She pulled out all the mandala flowers on it, and the other three came over when they saw her actions.

“Is there anything special about this place?”

“The temperature here is different,” Sima You Yue said.

Gongzi Yuan knelt down and touched it, and said, “There is nothing different? It just seems to be a bit warmer.”

“Don’t you feel it?” Sima You Yue touched the ground, “There is a force here, very gentle and warm. There is something under this.”

“Is there? We don’t feel anything!” Mu Kai En didn’t believe it.

“Well then, when I dig up the treasure, you can’t grab it with me.” Sima You Yue said as she took out a shovel and started digging from the ground she circled, digging deep until it was about the height of a person yet there was nothing.

“Xi’er, let me dig for you.” Gongzi Yuan said from above the pit, looking at her with dirt all over her clothes.

“No need. You aren’t able to sense the temperature so you might hurt it.” Sima You Yue refused.

As she continued digging, she would dig a layer out and reach out to feel the temperature of the soil. After digging half a meter deep, she finally found something like a rock below.

She put down the shovel and used both hands to start digging again. Very soon, a piece of ivory white jade was revealed.

“What’s this?” The three people above kept staring at her, so when the jade was exposed, they immediately found out.

“I don’t know.” Sima You Yue reached out and touched it. The jade was warm and felt very comfortable.

She carefully swept aside the surrounding soil, and found that the length of the jade was nearly the height of one person, fifty or sixty centimeters wide, and thirty centimeters thick, which was comparable to those single beds that she had seen in her previous life.

She removed all the surrounding soil and Gongzi Yuan jumped down to assist her and moved the jade out with her.

“What kind of jade is this? Little Yuan, do you recognise it?” Mu Kai En asked.

“Well, according to my family’s research on jade, hmm... this jade...I really haven’t seen it before.” Gongzi Yuan circled around the jade, but still didn’t see anything special about it.

“I also think that this jade is very ordinary. It doesn’t seem to contain any ghost energy in it.” Xiao Ruo Bai said.

“But if it weren’t a treasure, how could Xi’er dig it out?” Mu Kai En felt that Sima You Yue should be a person who would not do anything unprofitable. If this thing was useless, she would not waste her time digging it out.

“This is a soul stone.” Sima You Yue climbed up from the pit and said: “Soul stone has no effect for those of the ghost clan, but it is the treasure of soul cultivators. Moreover, this soul stone is so big, it’s also considered rare in the world.”

“How do you know this?” Mu Kai En asked.

“Didn’t I hurt my soul previously? During this period, I’ve been researching and reading up on this.” Sima You Yue stroked the jade gently as a comfortable energy washed over her.

“Since your soul is injured, then you can keep this away.” Gongzi Yuan said, “This thing is useless to us anyway.”

Sima You Yue looked at Xiao Ruo Bai and Mu Kai En.

“Little Yuan is right, this thing doesn’t do much for us. Besides, this is what you found, and that’s yours.” Mu Kai En said.

“Well, I need this, so I won’t be polite to you.” She suppressed the joy in her heart and kept the entire slab of soul stone away.

She didn’t lie to them, this soul stone really didn’t do much for ghost cultivators, but for the soul cultivators, even a small piece would cause everyone to snatch it. Not to mention that this was as big as a single bed! If the forces of the soul cultivators discovered it, it would definitely be the treasure of their clan!

Sitting on it to cultivate would render twice the result with half the effort. Even if one doesn’t use it for cultivation, just by sleeping on it, it would still be comparable to cultivating on ordinary times.

So, for her, this was simply the treasure of treasures!

Her Ancestor sent her here, it must have been for a reason. It’s just that she was so muddled that she didn’t find this treasure earlier.

Seeing her beaming with happiness, Gongzi Yuan was stunned silly and Xiao Ruo Bai felt ashamed only after nudging him for a bit did he regain his senses.

“Congratulations on getting such a treasure! Say Xi’er, such a good thing happened, shouldn’t we celebrate?” Mu Kai En also found Gongzi Yuan shameful, but his focus was on other things.

Sima You Yue looked at the three people before her and her gaze seemed warmer. In fact, she could wait until she was alone to find the treasure but the reason why she chose to excavate it now was to test them.

Over the past few days, she felt that the three of them were pretty good, but there was no conflict of interest so she couldn’t fully gauge them. Looking at it now, she could at least try to have a deeper friendship.

“Alright. It’s almost noon anyway, I’ll make something delicious for you.” She smiled.

“Hurray! Great! Are we having a barbecue?”

Sima You Yue glanced at the anxious Mu Kai En, and said, “Who eats barbecue at noon?”

In the end, she cooked a few dishes for everyone, because the ingredients were not from the Spirit Pagoda, but from the mountains, the taste was not as good.

But for Mu Kai En and others, this was already considered delicious.

The three of them buried their heads and ate, while Sima You Yue turned her gaze to the back of Mu Kai En, who was sitting opposite her, and frowned deeply.
