Chapter 970 - Set off to Cloud Sea City

Sima You Yue was speechless, what kind of reaction did this guy just give?

She herself was also a medicinal material enthusiast, but he actually called her rough?

But seeing the anxious look on his face, she couldn’t snatch it back either.

“Do you know how to plant this?”

“I definitely know more than you do.” Little Spirit assured, “You don’t have to worry about this, just leave it to me.”

“Do you know what it is for?”

“I know, it’s a treatment for your Aunt.” Little Spirit continued, “Rest assured, hand it to me and there won’t be any problems, I won’t play around with your matters.”

Sima You Yue saw that he didn’t look like he was joking, so she nodded her head and said, “Then I’ll leave this to you, plant it well.”

“Got it.” After Little Spirit answered, he took the ring and left.

“Hey, my ring!” Sima You Yue just remembered that Little Spirit took the ring altogether.

“I’ll return it to you next time.” Little Spirit’s voice echoed without even showing his face.

Sima You Yue thought it was still early to leave, so she went to the pill refining room to refine pills for two days.

She was busy for the past two years, aside from those pills that were needed, she didn’t have any time to practice refining other pills, therefore she didn’t really have much improvement on eight grade pills. Good thing was that she had a good foundation, so she didn’t lack anywhere in the last two years.

On the second morning, she came out from the spirit pagoda, just right that Su Xiao Xiao and the rest also came out from the pill refining room.

“Senior Brother, Senior Sister, how was the research.”

“There weren’t any main leads.” Han Miao Shuang continued, “We totally can’t figure out what it is.”

“Even Alchemist Guild and people from Pill Subdivision can’t figure what this is. You guys only took one night, so it’s normal if there weren’t any results. Don’t be discouraged.” Sima You Yue comforted them.

“Is it because you knew that there won’t be results, that’s why you didn’t go?” Han Miao Shuang asked after she thought about it.

Sima You Yue smiled without saying anything, implying that she was admitting to it.

“Wow, good of you. You knew there won’t be any results but you didn’t even give us a heads up.” Han Miao Shuang stared at her with disatisfaction.

“You were both so excited at that time. Even if I told you, you guys wouldn’t have listened to me.” Sima You Yue continued, “Why bother wasting my breath.”

“….”

“How’s your stuff coming along?” Su Xiao Xiao asked while handing the box that contained the Dragon Beard Grass to her.

“It’s a small matter, already settled.” Sima You Yue replied, “Let’s clean up then we will go and find Instructor Mao.”

“Mm.”

As they left the courtyard, Sima You Yue set up a spirit barrier that protected the courtyard. No outsiders would transpass here, but it could prevent it from building up dust.

They came to Mao San Quan’s office. Other than Mao San Quan and Fan Lei, there were a few teachers and students.

After they went in, Mao San Quan said, “Now everyone is here, let’s move. Old Fan, I will hand the sect over to you.”

Fan Lei nodded.

Mao San Quan opened a space portal and let all the students go in first. Sima You Yue and the rest came late, so they could only follow behind.

Fan Lei walked to the front and ordered, “Three of you, you have to be mentally prepared for the things in Cloud Sea City. If there is any danger, don’t just rush forward, but follow everyone behind. The old guys there will observe everything! Little Seven, you also have to be careful, don’t let others know your identity.”

“Yes, Principal Fan, we will keep it in mind.” Sima You Yue acknowledged, if anything happened, they wouldn’t act rashly.

“Go ahead.”

The others had already gone ahead. With Mao San Quan rushing them, Sima You Yue and the rest went into the space tunnel.

“Take good care of these students. They are the elites of alchemy.” Fan Lei told Mao San Quan.

“Got it.” Mao San Quan responded, turned around and went into the space portal. After they went in, the tunnel began to seal slowly.

Fan Lei was worried that something would happen given Mao San Quan’s temper, but the sect needed him to take care of everything. Yuan Shao Jie and the rest didn’t come back yet, so the only way was to let him lead.

“Old Mao, you better keep your temper in check!” He sighed and walked out of the door.

When Sima You Yue came out from space, they landed on an ice field.

“This is Cloud Sea City?” Someone asked.

“No.” One of the teachers shook his head and said, “This ice field is in the south of Cloud Sea City.”

“Then which position is Cloud Sea City in? It felt like we were in the hollow for a long time.”

“Yeah, the map doesn’t indicate Cloud Sea City. We don’t know which direction it is.”

“What’s the point of knowing so much.” One of the teachers reprimanded, “You will naturally know when the time comes.”

Those two students who were talking were being reprimanded and lowered their heads in embarrassment.

Sima You Yue gave a thought about it, according to the time they spent in the hollow, the distance between here and the sect was at least millions of kilometers and they didn’t even know where it was.

“Instructor Mao, is this where the incident happened?” A teacher asked.

“No. We’ll head to Cloud Sea City first.” Mao San Quan summoned a flying beast and asked everyone to get on.

Those students who followed didn’t know what happened, but seeing how grave the teachers looked, they couldn’t help but question, “Teacher Wei, what was the incident you guys mentioned earlier? Is it the reason why we came here in advance?”

Teacher Wei was Wei Zheng, and he was someone with a higher reputation in the Alchemist Guild. His position and power was less than Xu Jin just by a little bit.

He took a glance at Mao San Quan. Seeing how he didn’t give a meaningful look, he then told some of the students, “Something happened in Cloud Sea City, the plants that grow around it have turned black and the spirit beasts have become more short-tempered. We still don’t know if it’s targeting the alchemy’s contest, but the Alchemist Guild got us to come over here in advance to solve this problem….”

Everyone kept quiet and listened to Wei Zheng. After which, everyone lowered their face, deep in thought.

Even the Alchemy Master Guild couldn’t figure it out? Was there any use to ask them to go there?

“Instructor Mao, this feels fishy.” One of the students remarked, “Why get us here when even the Alchemist Guild and Pills subdivision can’t solve this problem?”

“It’s fishy, but before we get there, we won’t know the actual situation.” Mao San Quan said.

“Then, is it possible that someone has imitated the Alchemist Guild to send their words to us?” Han Miao Shuang asked.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I know the person who passed us the news, he’s from the Alchemist Guild.” Mao San Quan continued, “He got the direct orders from the assistant pavilion leader and he won’t be bribed by others.”

“He won’t be bribed by others, but who knows if the one that was bribed is the assistant pavilion leader.” Little Seven casually remarked. Seeing everyone looking at her, she laughed cheekily and said, “It’s just a random guess.”

“Regardless of what the situation is, we will know after we take a look. ” Wei Zheng said.

“How long more do we need to get to Cloud Sea City?”

“After we pass this ice field.”

After three days, they finally flew out of the ice field and saw a city that was sitting on the clouds.
