“This is something I’ve prepared for you. I’ve recorded the methods of using the items inside as well.” Chan Shan said, ‘Feel free to use the other things as you wish, but there is one that you cannot lose. Inside this is an array that will take you back to the clan directly. No matter where you are, no matter the circumstance, you will be able to use it to bring you back here directly.”

Sima You Yue took the box. She didn’t know what was in it, but she knew that that array was definitely precious.

No matter where she was, no matter the situation she was in, she would be able to use it. That meant that this was extremely powerful. Even if someone sealed the space, it would still work. That just showed how powerful it was. If she encountered another situation where more than ten old guys surrounded her, she wouldn’t have to go to her spirit pagoda, she could just use this to return.

This was like a gift of life!

Furthermore, she said that inside it contained the methods to utilise the things, which meant that there were many things inside. Then again, the last time she went to the treasure pavilion, she had seen many treasures. Just taking a few of them would make it very heavy already.

“Thank you, Grandmother.” She kept the box away

“The hidden sects do not walk amongst the common world. I will not ask you where it is, either. The teleportation array will take you to the Triangle District, you can go to the hidden sect from there.” Chan Shan said.

“Alright.”

This act of hers made Yan Ya and Fei Yi comfortable. If she had asked them where their hidden sect was, they would have been forced to answer. In this way, although they had to go over on their own, it helped to avoid making things difficult for them.

“Chan Jiu will be your guard in the future. He will ensure your safety.”

Sima You Yue recalled the scene where Chan Jiu had merely shouted once to force all the old guys to retreat, and thought of how he would stay by her side as a guard. Pursing her lips, she tactfully declined, “Asking the Right Emissary to become my bodyguard? Isn’t this a waste of his great talents?”

“Chan Jiu is strong and powerful in battle. If he is by your side, I will not have to arrange for more people by your side.” Chan Shan said, “Or are you saying that you would prefer that?”

Sima You Yue opened her mouth, but finally replied, “As long as Right Emissary does not feel aggrieved.”

“It is of the utmost importance to ensure the safety of Young Sovereign.” Chan Jiu said.

Alright, this meant that he wanted to come as well. To make such a powerful person her bodyguard was just something that she felt was a waste.

After warning her again, Sima You Yue and the others used the teleportation array to take them out of the Ninth Underworld Mountain and Chan Jiu was now a new addition to their group.

After they exited the teleportation array, they figured out a direction and headed to the closest city to find out where they were.

“I’m leaving.” Mo Yu said before they entered the city, “You’re going to the hidden sect to study. I’m not going with you.”

The reason he came along with her was primarily to look for Fu Xi. Later on, it was to protect her in the little realm. Now that she wanted to study, he no longer needed to accompany her.

“Alright. If you return to the Imperial Capital, let my Elder Cousin and the others know that I’m safe. Since the little realm collapsed, he’ll definitely be anxious.” Sima You Yue said.

“Leave me a sound stone. I’ll just pass it to him.” Mo Yu said.

“Alright.”

Sima You Yue ran to a corner and left what she wanted to say inside a sound stone. Then, she handed it to Mo Yu.

“The people from hidden sects have complicated backgrounds. There are people from all three regions in the Ghost Realm. After going in, if you run into trouble, don’t bother keeping the peace. It’s a good thing that you’re also the granddaughter of the Ghost King as well as the Young Sovereign of the Ninth Underworld Clan.

“I know, aren’t you familiar with my personality by now?” Sima You Yue never once thought of making herself suffer.

“As for these two children, just toss them to someone else to care for if they’re troublesome. Ghost King and the Ninth Underworld Clan will take good care of them. Don’t invite trouble just for the sake of a little curiosity.”

“I understand.”

“Also…”

Mo Yu nagged her for quite a long time before he finally opened a spatial portal and left. Sima You Yue felt like he was a lot more naggy than her own clansmen.

Hai Xing and Hai Xi were very silent after that, afraid that Sima You Yue would suddenly send them away. Although they would still be able to cultivate somewhere else, they really wanted to stay by Sima You Yue’s side. They could only trust her alone.

However, they knew that they were troublesome, so they did not dare to hope that she would take them with her forever. That was why they merely waited for her to make a decision.

It was a good thing that Sima You Yue did not mention about them leaving at all, which allowed their anxious hearts to rest.

“How are we going to head to the hidden sect?” Sima You Yue asked, “By teleportation array?”

“That’s too far away. We would need to use up too many array stones. Furthermore, the spatial area gets increasingly chaotic the closer we get to the hidden sect. We can’t take the teleportation array.” Fei Yi said, “We have to take a teleportation array close to the place, then fly over.”

“We have to go through that much trouble? Then isn’t it inconvenient for your sect members every single time they want to return? What happens if they’re in danger and can’t make it time to rush back?”

Yan Ya and Fei Yi laughed when they heard what she said.

“In the Ghost Realm, nobody will go to the hidden sect. It has a lot of power over the Ghost Realm. If they provoke them, it will be equivalent to making an enemy out of the three regions.” Fei Yi said, “Also, for a place that can produce people from so many different sects, can they really be taken advantage of?”

“That’s true. However, I still have a lot of respect for your sect members. With these kinds of practices set in place, it’s like one of the top academies.”

On one hand, the Ghost Realm had nurtured many talents. On the other hand, it also caused the hidden sect to have an unparalleled position in the Ghost Realm.

After they entered the city, they took a few teleportation arrays before they finally arrived at the place that Fei Yi told them about.

At this time, Mo Yu had returned to the Imperial Capital and had gone to see Di Zhe. When he arrived back at the General’s Residence, Yu Wan Wan was there as well and was crying miserably to Di Zhe.

It was all her fault. Why did she tell Sima You Yue about the ancient battle souls? If it wasn’t because she had run off to look for her, she would not have gone, and she would not have been there when the space collapsed, and now nobody knew whether she was dead or alive.

“You’re all here, that’s great. I can let you all know together.” Mo Yu came out from the spatial portal as Du Zhe and Yu Wan Wan looked over.

“Where’s You Yue?” Yu Wan Wan stood up from the chair, her expression taut with anxiety as she looked at Mo Yu. She was afraid that he would bring her bad news.

Even Di Zhe did not even care that he had directly run to his General’s residence.

“Here, the brat left this for you!” Mo Yu took out the sound stone and tossed it to Di Zhe as he found a seat and sat down.

Di Zhe imbued his spirit energy into it as Sima You Yue’s voice played.

“Cousin, I’m doing well. I was sealed inside the Triangle District when I came out from the spatial area, but I’m out now and preparing to head to the hidden sect to see if I can enrol there to study.

Cousin, how is Cousin Wan Wan doing? I don’t know whether she managed to leave before the spatial area collapsed. If she’s fine, tell her that I’m doing well when you see her.

I’ve kept all the ancient battle souls. Now that I mention it, it was only with Yan Ya’s help that I got them so smoothly. On the other hand, I also absorbed Xie Hun, the one under Xiao He. he’s inside my Hundred Ghost Banner now.

Actually, the one who worries me most is Grandfather. The last time I went to the Mo Clan, I gave him some water that I got from Chaos River, but I don’t know if it was able to help him achieve enlightenment over the heavenly law. I didn’t get to see him the last time that I returned. If anything happens to him, you have to contact me. You should know how to find me. Time is of the essence, you can ask Mo Yu if you want to know anything about me.. He’ll tell you.”
