Tuoba Yan Er swept her eyes over everyone and said, “Twenty seniors actually plotted to kill ten juniors. Ouyang Dong, you’re a great one, aren’t you!”

“They’re the ones who hit me first.” A male shouted from the back.

“That’s right, Young Miss Tuoba. We are seniors. Are we not supposed to fight back when freshmen provoke us?”

“Didn’t you see that they wanted to kill us? We were merely defending ourselves.”

“That’s right.”

Ouyang Dong smiled, saying, “Young Miss Tuoba, you heard it yourself. This isn’t our fault. They’re the ones who started it. Also, we haven’t done anything yet, but we have already been beaten twice.”

“Hmph.” Sima You Yue snorted coldly, “I don’t usually beat people up. If I beat you, it means that you’re not a person.”

“You-” Ouyang Dong wanted to rage at being mocked. However, he saw that Tuoba Yan Er was standing in front of Sima You Yue, “Young Miss Tuoba, you’ve seen it yourself. The freshmen are too arrogant.”

“The freshmen are arrogant? Do you mean to say that I am so as well?” Tuoba Yan Er said with a cold expression, “Do not forget that I am a new student as well.”

“No, no. How would I dare say so of Young Miss Tuoba.” Ouyang Dong hurried to deny, “How could Young Miss Tuoba be the same as them.”

Tuoba Yan Er waved her hand impatiently, saying, “They are all my friends. Ouyang Dong, if you dare make trouble for them, not only will I refuse to let you off, If Han knows of this, he will get rid of you as well! Get out of my sight now!”

When he heard Tuoba Han’s name, Ouyang Dong was given a rude shock. Although he was still upset, he did not dare to vent his steam at Tuoba Yan Er. He waved his hands at those around him, saying icily, “Let’s go.”

As he was scurrying off, he did not forget to glare hatefully at Sima You Yue.

Sima You Yue saw the murderous intent in his eyes. However, she was unafraid. If Tuoba Yan Er did not come, they would all be a group of dead men!

However, it wasn’t good that they had left the root behind.

Tuoba Yan Er saw that they had left, then turned around and said, “Are you guys okay?”

“Thank you very much, Young Miss Tuoba, for your help.” Sima You Yue cupped her fists in thanks to Tuoba Yan Er, even if she didn’t really need her help to begin with.

“Although that Ouyang Dong isn’t that talent, he is the son of the first wife in the Ouyang clan. If he was killed in a public place, the Ouyang Dong will definitely say something.” Tuoba Yan Er said with a smile.

Sima You Yue raised her eyebrows. Since she was telling her not to kill him in a public place, did she mean for her to kill him secretly?

“Where do you guys want to go?” Wang Kai looked rather arrogantly at them as he asked.

Sima You Yue wasn’t predisposed towards Wang Kai and My Lin . Seeing him act this way, she couldn’t be bothered to reply to him. She said to Tuoba Yan Er, “Young Miss Tuoba, we still have some things to do. We’ll bid you farewell here.”

“We initially wanted to take your out to memory restaurant. Since you’re busy, let’s postpone it.” Tuoba Yan Er said regretfully.

“Young Miss Tuoba, can you contact Tuoba Han?” Sima You Yue asked.

“I can. But he’s in the inner sect now. He can’t just come out as and when he wants to. Do you need something from him?” Tuoba Yan Er asked.

“Nothing much. He just got me to help him refine a few pills the last time, and I’m done with them.” Sima You Yue had yet to finish speaking when Wang Kai interrupted her.

“Since you want to give Han the pills, you can pass them to me. We can pass them to him on your behalf.”

“I’m afraid I can’t do that.” Sima You Yue rejected him directly, “He got me to keep it a secret. He said that I cannot let others know what kind of pill it is. That’s why I have requested for Young Miss Tuoba to help me notify him and get him to take it from me personally.”

“You-” Wang Kai was rather upset that Sima You Yue had cut him off, and glared at her with a dark expression.

Sima You Yue really disliked this kind of arrogant people who liked to look down on others. If it weren’t for the fact that Tuoba Yan Er wasn’t bad, and that she had promised to help cure Tuoba Han of his poison, she wouldn’t have bothered herself with them.

In the beginning, she had saved them because she was someone who couldn’t just stand by apathetically. However, she found out later on that Wang Kai and Mu Lin were those kind of arrogant people. They started acting all high and mighty the moment they found out that she didn’t have any big backer. They only tagged along with Tuoba Yan Er and the others because they wanted to ride along on her influence.

“Don’t worry, I will let him know.” Tuoba Yan Er said when she saw that Sima You Yue was getting unhappy.

“Then we will make a move first.” Sima You Yue cupped her fist towards Tuoba Yan Er, then left with Sima You Lin and the others.

“This Sima You Yue. Yan Er, you saved him, but he still acts this way. He’s too impolite.” Wang Kai rarely got slighted by others this way, so he was rather incensed.

Tuoba Yan Er saw the way Wang Kai was acting, and subtly furrowed her eyebrows, saying lightly, “He saved us before as well.”

After speaking, she walked away. Feng Wu Hen remained silent the entire time. When he saw that Tuoba Yan Er was rather upset, he walked forward to accompany her and cared nothing for Wang Kai. It seemed that their relationship wasn’t all that great.

“Wu Hen, what kind of pill do you think Han got You Yue to refine that he actually wants to keep it a secret?” Tuoba Yan Er asked.

“It should be rather important. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have kept it a secret.” Feng Wu Hen speculated.

“Yeah, we should notify him quicker.” Tuoba Yan Er said, “It’s just that those in the inner sect can’t come out as they like. I wonder when he will be able to come out.”

“It seems that Sima You Yue isn’t in a rush either, so it shouldn’t be that important. Also, once he gets the news, he should be able to make his own arrangements.” Feng We Hen said.

Wang Kai saw that Tuoba Yan Er wasn’t waiting for him, and thought of how cold she wasn tjust now. It seemed that what she said was chastising him, and the rage in his heart grew stronger. He looked deep in thought as he watched the place where Sima You Yue and the others left.

“What are you so mad about?” Mu Lin said as he patted his shoulder.

“Ever since this brat appeared, Tuoba Yan Er has been treating him special. I don’t know what’s so good about that kid. He’s just a damned brat who came up from the lower continent. She actually blames me because of him, what trash!” Wang Kai spat hatefully.

“Truly detestable.” Mu Lin said, “He” kists an array master and alchemist, but doesn’t treat us with respect.”

“Hmph, so what if he’s an array master and alchemist? I’ll get rid of him eventually!”

“Isn’t it easy if you want to get rid of him? Why would you have to act personally?” Mu Lin said loadedly.

“What do you mean?”

“Yan Er treats him as a good friend. Aren’t you afraid that Yan Er will become unhappy with you if you make trouble for him?” Mu Lin said as he glanced at the sect.

Wang Kai suddenly came to a realisation as he smiled, “That’s right. If Yan Er found out that I did something to him, she might even ignore me out of anger. Ouyang Dong has been beaten up by him, and definitely won’t let it go. When the time comes… Hmph!”

Sima You Yue had not yet rounded the corner when she felt a scorching gaze upon her back. She knew who it was without needing to guess.

Like the story of the farmer and the viper. It seemed that she had rescued a snake!
