Chapter 372 - Prepare To Strike Back

Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Sima You Yue was shocked – so the Sage Pavilion’s Lord was coming personally to get him?

If the Divine Devil’s Valley and the Sage Pavilion’s relationship was not good, then why would the Sage Pavilion Lord keep Wu Lingyu by his side? He even let him become a Holy Son of the Sage Pavilion, allowing him to enjoy a status that is even higher than than of Lords in other Pavilions. Especially because of the fact that he came to receive Wu Lingyu personally, it shows how important he was to that Lord.

She wasn’t sure why, but she felt that something was amiss. But because she was unable to come to a conclusion, she kept this secret within her heart.

“The Moonbow Clan’s people are almost all rested up, let’s continue moving.” Sima You Yue said.

“Do we continue in the same direction?” Fatty Qu asked. Sima You Yue took out the Jade Stone and took a look. She saw that the little red dot was showing some movement, and said, “Let’s first go to receive Older Brother and the rest, and let’s decide after we get them.”

“Have they come out?” Sima You Le asked. Previously when they had taken out the Jade Stone to check for movement, Sima You Lin’s side had shown no movement at all, and so they guessed that they must have been trapped somewhere.

“Yes, and they have started moving.” Sima You Yue nodded. “Come, let’s go receive them.” A group of them made a small change in direction, and flew towards the direction that Sima You Lin and the rest were at. On the other side, a number of people had been rushing through the days and nights. A few days later, when Sima You Lin took out his Jade Stone to take a look, he saw that Sima You Yue was getting close.

“You Yue and the rest are rushing towards our direction.” Sima You Yang said.

“So it means that we will meet rather soon.” Sima You Qing said. “It’s been a few months, I wonder what changes Sima You Yue and the rest have undergone.”

“I wonder if they have the same fortune as us.” Sima You Ming said.

“My intuition tells me that You Yue, that punk, will miss us by a few streets.” Sima You Yang said.

“We’ll know when we see.” Sima You Lin did not try to guess, but he felt that Sima You Yue did have some good fortune, seeing that she excelled in whatever she attempted.

After a few more days passed, the two parties finally met, and when the Divine Devil Valley’s people saw the Moonbow Clan’s members saw Sima You Lin and the rest, they became curious as to why Sima You Yue would come this far to receive them. When they followed Sima You Yue in this direction, they were unaware of her intentions to receive a group of people, and they had thought that it was because she had found people from the Cloud Cave. It was only after understanding their relationship did they become aware of her plans.

“Fifth Brother!”

“You Yue!”

“Big Brother!”

As the two parties met, they had plenty of things to say to one another. And so Sima You Yue left the Divine Devil Valley and Moonbow Clan aside, and gathered with the rest of the group.

“You’ve been promoted to a Spirit Paragon.” Sima You Lin said with surety as he looked at Sima You Yue.

“You’ve also become a Fourth Grade Spirit Saint!” Sima You Yue said.

“What? You’ve become a Spirit Paragon? Weren’t you just a Fifth Grade Spirit Saint previously? Sima You Qing exclaimed in surprise, attracting the attention of all those around them.

The Divine Devil’s Valley had already known about this, and were no longer surprised the second time they heard it. However, the Moonbow Clan’s people were shaken, and asked some members of the Divine Devil’s Valley again for confirmation. And when they got their answer, all the beautiful ladies and handsome men were shocked. And their surprise did not end there – their attention started to float around unconsciously, and they started to eavesdrop on the conversation that Sima You Lin and the others were having, and heard that each person had grown by two or three ranks in the past ten months. Such talents were hard to find even up there, yet the whole group of them were displaying such talents!

“Indeed, those who follow our Young Master are not simply average beings.” Shen Rao’s lips wrinkled into a smile, looking somewhat perturbed. The others nodded in approval and agreement.

Sima You Yue did not care about their reactions, and asked Sima You Lin about what had happened after they had gone their separate ways. She learnt that they had found a training ground that was similar to the one provided by the Snow Wolf Clan’s training ground, and they had been kept in ever since, and heaved a sigh of relief. After which, she told them what had happened to them, and explain what was currently happening.

“Thankfully you all had not met those people, if not I would not be able to account to that old fox.” She said.

“Although we did not encounter them, but we did see from afar a great battle between two parties. That might have been what you were just talking about.” Sima You Yang said. Back then, they had sensed that there was imminent danger if they went ahead, and so they had stayed back, and hid themselves while observing from afar.

Sima You Yue asked about the other party’s distinctive features, and called Yun Yi and the rest to ask. And indeed, the people that they had seen were members of the Cloud Cave and members of another sect, although they were members of a minor sect.

“It seems like the Cloud Cave is not just hunting us, but they are trying to exterminate the other smaller sects as well.” Qiao Ya’s expressions became heavy. “Seeing that they are behaving so unscrupulously, I think other than having the Holy Son on their side, they must have other things that they can rely on.”

“Could it be… Something from up there?” Shen Rao guessed.

“We can’t be sure. Usually they wouldn’t involve themselves with us down here, unless there is an agreement. But even so, we wouldn’t know.” Qiao Ya said.

“Up there? Is there another continent greater than the Primordial Lands?” Sima You Yue asked.

“No,” Shen Rao said. “It’s just another division within the continent, when we say “up there”, we’re referring to another region. We’re all in the same continent.”

“Oh.” Sima You Yue said. “Are these boundaries also drawn and separated by powers?”

“That’s right. In the region that we’re in, it is separated into the Outer Boundary, Central Boundary and the Inner Boundary. The Outer Boundary is where the average ones gather. We’re in the Central Boundary, and the “up there” that we are talking about is referring to the Inner Boundary.” Qiao Ya explained.

Sima You Yue quickly understood what she was saying – there were other regions apart from the one that they were currently in. She wanted to ask just how big this world was, but she held her tongue, in case what she said discouraged the others.

“There are still about two months before we will leave. We should seize these two months to make those who have bothered us regret what they have done!” Sima You Yue said. After which, she looked at Shen Rao and the rest and said, “You guys have a way to track down those people, right? You don’t have to track their powers, just help us to find those key persons.”

“Alright.” Shen Rao nodded, his eyes glistening with some excitement – they are finally going to strike back!

In the next month, there was occasional news about the Sage Pavilion and the Cloud Cave, as well as news of people from here and there getting destroyed by the Divine Devil’s Valley and of this and that person being completely defeated and destroyed. The news of these happenings angered the Sage Pavilion and the Cloud Cave so much that they were on the brink of choking on their own blood.

On that day, from one of the valleys, a few individuals crept out and, looking at those guarding the outsides, asked urgently, “Has Holy Son Ye come out yet?”

“Not yet.” The guard replied. “You have already come by three times in this month. Are you all not tired? When the Holy Son has come out, we will report it to you. You guys had better leave for now.”
