Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
The second day Sima You Yue returned, she went to the sect. She and Wu Lingyu first went to meet the head instructor and then the vice-president.
The head instructor asked them about the results of this year, and Wu Lingyu spoke a lot. But in her opinion, they were all superfluous words. On the other hand, the vice president didn’t say much. Instead he made Wu Lingyu stay behind. Before she left, the vice-president told her Ge Liang had looked for her several times.
After she left the vice-president’s office, she directly headed to Ge Liang’s laboratory.
Ge Liang was discussing things with the students. When he saw her, he was surprised and became more excited.
“We can stop here for today. We can talk about the rest afterwards…” Ge Liang told the students. “Afterwards is the competition, so you should prepare yourself.”
“Yes, Teacher Ge.” Those students packed up their things. Only after they exited did they see that Sima You Yue was standing outside.
“You Yue, you’re back? I heard your teaching assistant took you out for a tour. How was the year?” Some people greeted her.
“It’s alright. Did you all signed up for the competition? What did you sign up for?”
“We all signed up for pill refinement. The inner sect doesn’t have a medical department. If we want to enter, we can only choose other subjects.”
“Fighting, Seniors!”
“Are you looking for Teacher Ge? Quickly get in, Teacher Ge already said you went away for too long.”
“Okay, take care, seniors.”
Sima You Yue chatted a few words with them before entering the room. By the time she entered, Teacher Ge had finish removing his teaching materials.
“Teacher Ge.” Sima You Yue paid her respects to Ge Liang.
“I heard you got abducted to the devil world? Are you alright?” Ge Liang asked.
It was a secret between the students, but the teachers also knew. The sect must had sent teachers to participate in the search and rescue.
“Fortunately, Teacher Wu saved me. I am well.” Sima You Yue answered.
“That’s good.” Ge Liang said. “Take a look at this.”
He took out several sheets of xuan paper(rice paper) and passed them to her.
Sima You Yue accepted them and looked. The more she read, the more delighted she was. “Teacher Ge, have you figured out the solution to my brother’s illness.
Ge Liang nodded. “The past year, I have primarily been researching his condition.?Then, I figured out a method. I think it should be useful. But there’s no way to test it.”
“Why?” Sima You Yue asked.
“Because it is an impossible prescription. Look at the last page.” Ge Liang replied.
Sima You Yue pulled out the last page and saw it was full of required herbs. As she browsed downward, she became more alarmed.
“These are all the main herbs. Those I have, I already checked off on the back.” Ge Liang continued, “As for the rest, every one of them are uncommon. Among them, the rarest are the last ones.”
“Over ten thousand years of black sea cucumber, over a hundred thousand years of amber tears, and the eye of the earth.” Sima You Yue exhaled. These things were hard to find!
“Over ten thousand years of black sea cucumber can only be found in the Ninth Star Ocean. Few had seen it this year. Amber tear over hundred thousand of years have not appeared for many years. As for the last one, I know there is one, but I can’t get it.” Ge Liang said.
“No matter what, I have to find these things.” Sima You Yue declared. “Teacher Ge, you said you know where the eye of earth is?”
When Ge Liang heard Sima You Yue’s words, he suddenly felt he said something wrong and wanted to repudiate. However, when he saw Sima You Yue’s urgent eyes, he couldn’t bear to lie to her.
“Although I know where the eye of earth is, I’ll stick to these words, you won’t be able to attain it.”
“Why?”
“Because it the sect’s stuff. No one can obtain it.” Ge Liang answered.?“So you don’t have to think about it. It’s still early. We can think of other ways.”
“Teacher Ge, do you think the feasibility of the other ways is large?” Sima You Yue asked.
Ge Liang was stunned and immediately shook his head.
He thought about this method for a long time. He was careful when deciding these herbs. If there were other ways, he would not be so conflicted.
“Therefore, I have to try.” Sima You Yue said, “Can teacher please tell me where the eye of the earth is?”
Ge Liang was silent for a while, and then solemnly said, “Well, it’s no secret now. There’s no harm in telling you. The eye of the earth is in the forbidden area of the sect.”
“Sect’s forbidden area? Inner sect?”
He Liang nodded. “The eye of the earth has always been in sect, and it has always been a secret. But decades ago, I don’t know who leaked the news, and as a result, some people came to know about it. So over the years, there have been many people who have come to the sect to find trouble, but because of the status of the sect, they dare not come to openly snatch it.”
Sima You Yue thought of the talents that arrived from the inner regions. Were they coming for the eye of the earth?
“Teacher Ge, as long as one enter the inner sect, they can enter the forbidden area, right?” Sima You Yue asked.
“You want to…impossible.The forbidden area is full of perils. People who enter without permission often never return. No, not mentioning that, the forbidden area of the college can’t be entered. Once discovered by the sect, they will be expelled from the sect.”Ge Liang spoke anxiously.
“Don’t worry, Teacher Ge. I didn’t say I would go into the forbidden area.” Sima You Yue assured. “Besides, I can’t go in now, can I? I was just wondering if it was possible to get some of it. The amount mentioned isn’t much.”
“That’s not possible.” Ge Liang refuted. “In that case, the eye of the earth would already be gone.”
“This kind of thing cannot bring out its value in the forbidden area. It’s better to use it as a medicinal ingredient and reflect its value!” Sima youyue exclaimed.
“What nonsense!” Ge Liang gave a sharp tap on her head.
Sima You Yue chuckled and put away the papers and said, “I’ll find someone to help me find other herbs first.”
“Go then.” Ge Liang waved his hand, and Sima You Yue depared.
When he saw her figure disappeared, Ge Liang let out a sigh. He wasn’t sure if he was right to tell her this information…
Sima You Yue went directly to Xuan Yuan Pavilion to find the steward.
That steward was a bald old man with a pair of small eyes that shone with shrewdness.
Sima You Yue didn’t waste any time. She took out the token given by Jun Cang. “I have something to trouble Xuan Yuan Pavilion.”
That steward saw her token and respectively entreated, “It’s young master You Yue. I wonder what are your orders?”
Sima You Yue took out a sheet of paper and said, “These are the herbs on it. Have someone collect them for me, and as for the payment…”
“Young master Sima has the token and doesn’t need to pay for taking things here.” The steward rejected.
No need for payment?
She remembered that Jun Lan and their people had to pay for everything they want to take from Xuan Yuan Pavilion. Was her position in Xuan Yuan Pavilion higher than them now?
