Regardless of how well she would do in the future, she first had one crucial condition, which was to survive.

Ning Tian Ya understood that she was resolute. No matter what she encountered, she would survive. She would survive and accomplish her life mission.

“In the future, what will you do if inner demons appear?” He asked her.

“I’ll think of a way to get rid of them, then. Look at my Master. Although he was stuck for so many years, didn’t he rid himself of his internal demons and advance in rank smoothly?” Sima You Yue was not worried, “In this world, everything has a conclusion. If I really end up in a deadlock, then it will be because of my own actions and I will have to accept the result. Even if so, it is better than dying early, don’t you think?”

A rarely seen ray of light shone down and landed on her, causing her to look rather ethereal.

Although the way she spoke was rather messy and she contradicted herself here and there, Ning Tian Ya could understand what she meant.

“There are three thousands ways of the dao, and you have chosen one true to your heart. That is great. However, the moment you doubt yourself, you might have a dark shadow forever that you can never shake off.” His words were earnest and sincere.

Sima You Yue looked at Ning Tian Ya and smiled, saying, “Grandpa, have you ever heard of the saying? We choose our own paths and we’ll walk it to the end even on our knees. Since I’ve chosen this path, I naturally cannot turn back.”

We choose our own paths and we’ll walk it to the end even on our knees? Ning Tian Ya raised his eyebrows. This was the first time he had ever heard of this saying.

“Grandpa, I don’t know why you want to tell me these things, but thank you. You have reminded me that I must press on.” Sima You Yue said, “Also, I don’t know who you are from the sect, but if you wish to speak to me in the future, you do not have to make yourself look this way.”

Did this mean that he had been exposed?

“How did you know?”

“You chose the wrong spot. Also, your broom is too clean. There was so much blood here. If you were the one who had cleaned it, how could your broom have remained spotless?” Sima You Yue explained, “In the future, you have to choose an older broom. Goodbye.”

After speaking, she walked past him and left. She left Ning Tian Ya behind, who was examining the broom in his hand with furrowed brows.

It was really too new and did not look like it had ever swept a single thing. However, this brat was rather intelligent. There were not that many youths who could clearly see their paths.

Sima You Yue returned to her courtyard. News of her massacre had already spread throughout the place, and the way the sect members looked at her when they saw her was strange.

“Why are all these people looking at me? It couldn’t be because I used poison so they feel ashamed of me? Or did I break some sect rule? No way, right?” She muttered to herself. When Fu Xi saw her, he had to call out to her twice before she answered.

“They just feel like you’ve only entered the sect for a short time and your Master has always been in seclusion, but you already know music attacks, so they feel rather beaten.” Fu Xi explained.

“How do you know?”

“I heard them talk about it.” Fu Xi said, “Why have you come back so late?”

News had already spread such a long time ago, but she had only just returned. That was too slow.

“Since I had some free time today, I went for a spin.” Sima You Yue said, “Did any news come from the Beast Tamer Sect?”

“Yes, I heard that they’re looking for people from the Doctor Sect and Poison Master Sect. It was a complete mess earlier, but it’s quieted down since. It’s possible that that guy, Qing Cai, has already calmed down. ” Fu Xi said, “You Yue, they won’t look for you to cause trouble right? I heard that that guy has quite a background in the Hidden Sect.”

“Are you talking about the Vice Sect Master?” Sima You Yue was not worried at all, “If he wants his son to be infertile for life, then he can try.”

Fu Xi subconsciously squeezed his legs together. How was she capable of doing something like that and even speaking about it so casually?!

Sima You Yue saw his reaction and said apologetically, “You’re just a child, why do you have such a big reaction?”

“How am I young? I’m a man as well, okay!” Fu Xi retorted, “I’m already two hundred and fifty years old.”

“But you are still a child.” Sima You Yue said, “Once your body has grown bigger, you can defend yourself again.”

“I…”

Fu Xi wanted to continue debating with her, but she already left the house and ignored him.

Very quickly, Lu Yan’s men came to call her over. She went over and met him in the highest level of a small house.

Lu Yan was standing in front of the banister. He was dressed in white with his long hair flowing casually behind him. When the wind blew, it danced in the wind.

This was the second time they had met in private.

“Master.” She bowed towards his back.

Lu Yan walked over and said, “Are You injured anywhere/”

“No.” Sima You Yue shook her head.

“Do you know why I have called you here?” Lu Yan asked her.

Sima You Yue examined his expression. He was neither happy nor angry, so she said, “I do not.”

“I know that you are intelligent and know how to fuse music attacks with other methods.” Lu Yan said. When he saw that Sima You Yue did not look proud of herself, the anger in his heart dissipated a little bit, “In the future, do not do something so dangerous again!”

“Huh?” Sima You Yue did not think that he was praising her when she said those words. He thought that he was angry that she had killed them in this manner, which is why she had prepared herself to be criticised. However, his later words did not seem to be hinting at that?

“You intentionally did not allow anyone to send you off to let them look for you, right? There are countless numbers of experts in the Hidden Sect. Your methods allowed you to defeat only those people, but what if you had met an expert?”

“I know my mistake. I will not go out alone in the future.” Sima You Yue admitted to her wrongs.

“In the future, cultivate more in the sect. I will help you to settle your issue with the Beast Tamer Sect.” Lu Yan said.

“Thank you, Master!” Sima You Yue smiled at him, “The Beast Tamer Sect will not do anything for the time being.”

“What did you do?”

“Before I left, I poisoned Qing Cai. He’s Qing Shi’s most beloved son, so before he manages to force out a solution, he will not do anything to me. Unless he has decided to give up on that son and make another one.”

Lu Yan knew what she had poisoned him with, “Are you so confident that they will not be able to find a cure to your poison?”

“Of course, I am the one who refined that poison myself. There are some ingredients that only I know of. If they want to find its complementary antidote, difficult.” Sima You Yue said confidently.

“After your battle, you said that you were a Beast Tamer Master, and now you are a Poison Master as well. Tell me, what else do you know? I want to know what kind of disciple I have accepted.” Lu Yan said.

“The ones I am most proficient in are medicinal arts and alchemy. Next are arrays, beast taming and being a seeker spirit master. I’m the worst at armament refinement, I spent the least time on that.” Sima You Yue replied, “Oh, now I know music attacks as well, so that is my weakest.”

“Medicinal arts, alchemy, arrays, beast taming, seeker spirit master, armament refinement. You know all of the different vocations, is there anything else you do not know?”

“I don’t know many things! Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come to the Hidden Sect to learn.. Also, what I know isn’t at its peak, so there is still a lot left for me to learn.”
