Chapter 450 - Going with them

It was swollen and hot, but it wasn’t painful like one would imagine.

Opening his eyes, he saw Sima You Yue look at him with amusement.

“What kind of treatment method is this?” He asked.

“Acupuncture.” Sima You Yue said while piercing him with the needles, “Your wounds are really serious right now. It’s better for you not to speak. Save your strength for absorbing the medicinal properties.”

Innkeeper Chou was truly exhausted. However, his eyes still flashed as he said, “Chou Xiao Tian.”

“Huh?”

‘My name.” Chou Xia Tian closed his eyes and didn’t speak any further, leaving Sima You Yue to cover his body completely with needles.

While he was in a daze, he could feel that his vitality that was initially fading, was slowly recovering. He was no longer shrouded by the aura of death. A set of clothes lay on his body and Sima You Yue’s voice slowly helped him come back to his senses.

“Alright, you’re no longer in critical condition.”

Chou Xiao Tian opened his eyes and looked at Sima You Yue. Her eyes reflected a sense of tiredness, and it looked that saving him had used up quite a lot of her mental energy.

“Thank you.” His voice was weak as he said.

“If you’re grateful, then waive the rental fees of our rooms.” Sima You Yue said while keeping her needles away.

“Okay.” Chou Xiao Tian agreed straightforwardly.

Sima You Yue kept everything away as she looked at Chou Xiao Tian, saying, “I’ve been wanting to ask you since just now. If I didn’t happen to save you, you probably wouldn’t have been able to survive past 2 hours. You really didn’t plan to tell your servant anything?”

“He’s called Lian Hong.” Chou Xiao Tian said, “If I did and you all didn’t take him away, I would let him stay here his whole life.”

“Cruel.” Sima You Yue merely said this one word.

“It’s for his own good.” Chou Xiao Tian smiled bitterly.

“What about now? You’re not dead, so are you going to stay here/”

“I have to think about it.”

“Take your time, then.” Sima You Yue placed a jade bottle on the table, saying, “You just have to take this at the same time tomorrow, and you’ll be fine.”

“Much appreciated.”

“You’re welcome. In any case, I’ve taken my compensation.” Sima You Yue said, “If you you still feel like it’s not enough, you can just give me another array stone like this one.”

“The main gate is over there, I won’t send you off.”

Sima You Yue no longer teased him and turned around to leave. She opened the main gate and saw Lian Hong standing outside the house, crying.

“You can go in.” She said before leaving.

Lian Hong had never left, but Sima You Yue always knew. It was only because Chou Xiao Tian’s injuries were serious and had lost much of his vitality that his senses were not sharp that he did not know he was outside.

“Thank you.” Lian Hong bowed to Sima You Yue gratefully.

Sima You Yue smiled before leaving the house.

She knew that the two of them had a lot to say to each other right now. It was best for her not to know about it, in order to avoid being dragged into their issues.

Since she had to fulfill her responsibilities for caring for the sick person, they delayed their journey for a few days.

Five days later, Chou Xiao Tian was finally recovered enough to loot outside. Seeing that Sima You Yue had come to settle the payment he said, “Your fees have already been paid.”

“Since that’s the case, can we get our deposit back?” Sima You Yue asked.

“No way. Since it’s been given, you can’t take it back.” Chou Xiao Tian’s face was solemn. He was afraid that Sima You Yue would ask him about that.

Sima You Yue smiled, saying to Sima Lie, “Grandpa, let’s go.”

The group of them left the inn and Chou Xiao Tian gazed upon the cold house. He turned to Lian Hong, who was currently cleaning the area, asking, “Do you want to leave with them?”

Lian Hong rolled his eyes, saying, “It’s you who wants to go with them. Why are you dragging me into this?”

“So you’re saying that you don’t want to go with them?” Chou Xiao Tian said with narrow eyes.

“I do!” Lian Hong threw the broom to the side as he called out.

“Then aren’t you going to go pack ?”

“I’ll do it now. I just need a few minutes.”

Lian Hong ran off to the hall behind him once he said this.

“Damned brat!” CHou Xiao Tian cried out teasingly.

Sima You Yue and the others headed directly to Heavenly Tiger Hall. The Heavenly Tiger Hall clansmen looked at her. They heard that she wanted to use the teleportation array, so they very politely took them to the place that housed teleportation array.

Although the teleportation array had been fixed, they did not yet contact the outside world. They merely sent people here to defend the area and did not let others come close.

When Sima You Yue came, Zhou Hai Mo received news and rushed over.

“Is Great Master leaving?” Zhou Hai Mo asked respectfully.

“Yeah. I had always planned to head outside from here. I never expected to stay for so long.” Sima You Yue said, “What is it? Has nobody used the array yet?”

“No, we’ve sent two people out and they have already returned safely. It is just that it’s been too long since the teleportation array has appeared in front of everyone. We don’t want to scare them, so we haven’t contacted the outside world.”

“Then, can we use it?” Sima You Yue asked.

“Of course you can!” Zhou Hai Mo said, “If Great Master wants to use it, you can use it anytime!”

“Many thanks then!” Sima You Yue said, “Grandpa, let’s go.”

They entered the large hall and stood inside the teleportation array. Just as they were about to pour their spirit power in, they heard someone shouting.

“Wait up! Wait! Wait for us!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Sima You Yue looked outside and saw two people rush in.

“Lord Sima, wait for us!” Lian Hong reached out a hand and cried out when he saw Sima You Yue and the others.

Chou Xiao Tian was following behind and the two of them entered the house.

Only someone like him would be able to come here without permission.

“Innkeeper Chou? You guys want to leave as well?” Zhou Hai Mo looked at Chou Xiao Tian and Lian Hong with confusion.

“Master says that we have had enough of the inn and wants to go out and take a walk. So, I’m no longer a servant!” Lian Hong beamed. “Lord Sima, can you take us along for the ride?”

“We’re not going the same place as you are.” Sima You Yue said.

“You are, you are.” Lian Hong said, “We’ll go wherever you go, so how could it not be the same place?”

“You guys have decided to come along with us?” Fatty Qu said with a smile.

“My master has said it, it would be the best if you could take us wherever you are going.” Lian Hong said.

Sima You Yue knew that he was talking about the innumerable green temple. Thinking about how Chou Xiao Tian knew about the Soaring Cloud Palace’s Palace Master, she guessed that they must be acquaintances.

“Since that’s the case, let’s go together.”

“Great.” Lian Hong stepped into the teleportation array and Chou Xiao Tian stepped in unhurriedly.

“Great Master, where are you going?” Zhou Hai Mo asked.

“Flower City.” Sima You Yue said.

Flower City. It was the most direct teleportation array to Innumerable Green City.

Zhou Hai Mo nodded and entered his spirit power into the area towards Flower City. The array shook and flared with light as the group of them disappeared within the teleportation array.

Outside Flower CIty, the spatial area opened as Sima You Yue and the others walked out. At the moment, they were millions of kilometres away from the city.

“The teleportation arrays here are truly troublesome. They actually won’t send you directly into the city.” Fatty Qu complained.

“Security is tight up there. Places like Heavenly Tiger Hall dont’ have the right to head directly into Flower CIty. They can only go nearby.” Zhou Xiao Tian explained.
