Wu La Li never thought that Sima You Yue would give her conditions so straightforwardly . After thinking about it, he nodded, “Okay. wait outside. Cheng Xiang will go in with me.”
“Oh right, who is injured?” she asked.
“It’s my mother.” Wu La Li said, “My father, the Emperor, and my mother had a good relationship. That is why he would disregard everything in order to save her life. However, even though that as the case, my mother has just been lying on that water crystal bed. She cannot speak or open her eyes. She’s like a dead person.”
At the end of his sentence, Wu La Li’s voice was low, and his mood fell with it.
“We expended a lot of effort in order to save my mother. We also cared little for the world outside. Our clansmen started to lose patience with us. However, my father did not have the heart to care.” Wu La Li continued, “Furthermore, I spent many years wandering around the contient to look for a way to save my mother. I also cared little for the events happening in my clan. It’s a good thing my second brother was able to support the violet water clan. This gave us the ability to go into the outside world to search.”
“You guys definitely love your mother.” Sima You Yue said, “Who told you about the Nirvana pill?”
“There was an alchemist who took a look at my mother’s condition after he came. He said that there was no way for my mother to ever regain consciousness, unless we had the Nirvana Pill. Even if someone were to help her regain consciousness, she would be like a cripple.” Wu La Li said, “In the beginning, we didn’t mind it. However, eventually, every person who came had their hands tied as well. My father eventually recalled the pill that the alchemist left behind, and started to send men out to search for the ingredients.
That person should have been rather capable because the average person would not know about the existence of the Nirvana Pill. Not only did that person know about its existence, he was also able to take out the recipe. He must have been a great master on the continent.
“Do you remember the name and identity of the alchemist?” Sima You Yue said.
“I do, it was the Devil Valley Master of the Divine Devil Valley. When I went to the continent, I heard of his name and went to the Divine Devil Valley to look for him. At that time, I almost broke their door down in order to enter the divine devil valley. Later on, I had to give him quite a lot of items before he was willing to do anything. Initially, it wasn’t much. However, that Old Man Devil started listing a whole lot of items and then insisted to be compensated before being willing to come with me.” Wu La Li said. Then, he noticed that Sima You Yue’s expression was getting rather odd and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“That old man devil… is actually my master.” Sima You Yue said.
“He is your master? You are from the Divine Devil Valley? Then what are you doing in the Heavenly Sect?” Wu La Li asked curiously.
“I am someone from the Divine Devil Valley. However, my master was the one who accepted me when I was outside. I have yet to even visit the place.” Sima You Yue said.
“That devil valley master was the most powerful candidate of them all. However, even he was only able to alleviate my mother’s pain. He was unable to awaken her. Furthermore, his efforts were ruined by the last alchemist.” Wu La Li had a rather good impression of Old Man Devil. “I hope that the student will be able to surpass the master.”
“My master’s forte does not lie in medicine, but in alchemy.” Sima You Yue explained, “If you got him to refine a pill, it definitely would be no problem for him. However, I can’t say the same for medicine. Furthermore, I have a relatively deeper knowledge in medicine. Even if I were able to heal your mother, it does not mean that I have surpassed my master.”
Wu La Li stared at her calm face and said, “Your master has taken in a good disciple.”
“That you, Your Highness, for your high praise.” Sima You Yue said with a smile.
As they were speaking, they arrived outside a palace. There were relatively less people here, but Sima You Yue felt as if it was a lot more tense.
“This is the place.” Wu La Li said, “I’m going to update my father first, Cheng Xiang, stay here and accompany him.”
“Your Majesty, it would be better if I came with you.” Cheng Xiang was worried, what if something happened to him due to his father’s rage? The king’s temper was rather bad lately, and nobody dared to think about what would happen if the queen really died.
“You should stay here and accompany You Yue.” Wu La Li said, “I will talk it over with my father. Nothing will happen. However, I would worry if You Yue, a human, remained here alone.
“I… okay.” Cheng Xiang said, “Your Majesty, in the few years that you were away, the king has gotten prone to anger. It would be best if you did not evoke his ire.”
“I know.” Wu La Li turned around and left.
Sima You Yue remained waiting outside with Cheng Xiang. When she saw those strange stones, she felt as if she were in a fantasy and wanted to touch it.
“It would be best if you did not go over.” Cheng Xiang said.
“Why?”
“There are traps everywhere, otherwise, there are strong guards. It would be unfortunate if you were to be killed while wandering around by accident due to a misunderstanding.” Cheng Xiang explained
Sima You Yue followed his gaze, and saw that there was a little snake on a stone that was around the same size as Little Golden Snake. When she saw its colour, she guessed that it was a violet water dragon in disguise.
“Cheng Xiang, does everyone in your clan hate humans?”
“Mm. Because they have not only failed to cure the queen, but have even caused her condition to worsen.” Cheng Xiang’s expression was ugly even as he spoke. It seemed that he didn’t have a good impression of humans either. The only reason he did not kill her was because Wu La Li had personally brought her back.
At this moment, inside the palace, Wu La Li was standing face to face with his father’s, Wu La Mai, ice cold expression.
“I’ve said it before that not a single human is to walk in here. Have you completely ignored my words?” Wu La Mai’s expression was one of rage as he pointed a trembling hand at Wu La Li.
“Father, you cannot condemn humanity due to the error of one human.” Wu La Li said, “There are good and bad people within the humans, and there are people of all professions, as well as quacks. At that time, the person had caused Mother’s condition to worsen. However, that does not mean that all humans are the same. Father, look for mother. She has already lain there for tens of years, and her condition has started to deteriorate. We don’t even know, even as she lies on the water crystal bed, how long she had hold on.”
“Even then, there is no need for a human to examine her!” Wu La Mai roared, “What if your mother’s condition worsens because you’ve randomly brought a human in?”
“But father, you couldn’t possibly want mother to lie there forever? Unable to speak or unable to smile… how is that different from death? Mother was a warm person who loved to play outside. She loved to laugh, loved to speak with everyone. Now that things have gotten this way, she might be suffering, and would rather die!”
“How dare you!” Wu La Mai punched Wu La Li and sent him flying. He hit the ceiling of the palace and landed on the ground.
“Angry?” Wu La Li crawled up from the ground, saying, “Father, you are truly selfish. You know for a fact that Mother will not be happy this way, but you still keep her like this. You want to rescue her. We all do. However, there is clearly a chance here, that you stubbornly refuse to try due to your own prejudice. Father, do you really love mother?”
