Sima You Yue’s gaze turned cold.
“Ghost Concubine has always been restless. With Grandfather locked away for so many years, it’s a given that she wants to gain some benefit from it. Hasn’t she been this way all along?” She sneered, “She probably really thinks that, compared to the previous concubine, she’s more suited to becoming the Ghost King. She hasn’t taken a look at herself to determine whether or not she has the ability!”
“Aren’t you worried about your Grandfather?”
“There’s no need to worry.” Sima You Yue said, “Grandfather actually left a Soul Imprint on me. He’s doing well inside my Sea of Consciousness, so he’s completely fine.”
“I see.” Wu Lingyu hooked her nose, “Why didn’t you tell me so earlier!”
“He he, I made you worry. Because I never thought about it, so it slipped my mind.” Sima You Yue wrinkled her nose.”
Wu LIngyu really suspected earlier that something had happened to Ghost King. They were so far away, and they hadn’t seen him for such a long time that he really could have believed it.
“Then we don’t have to worry about rushing back.” Wu Lingyu thought about rushing back once her wounds were healed. Now, they still had to return, but they didn’t have to rush anymore.
“My leaving examinations are already past. Once you’ve healed, you can take the leaving examination.” Wu Lingyu said.
“Leaving examination?”
“Every person who wants to leave the Hidden Sect will have to take a leaving examination for the subject they have learnt. Because you’ve always been rather famous the past few years, according to everyone’s wishes, your examinations will be made public.”
“Huh? My masters agreed?” Sima You Yue saw the smile on Wu Lingyu’s face and pursed her lips, “My Masters really don’t think on my behalf.”
“When they heard that you were going to take the examination, many people have been returning recently.” Wu Lingyu continued.
“Seriously?”
“That’s why you have to be prepared. During your examination, many people will be watching.”
“Like they did today? Sigh…”
Sigh, it had been more than twenty years, why did they like to watch her so much? She felt like an animal in the zoo these few years.
However, since her Masters had already agreed, there was no use to her fighting against it. Those in the sect had been chasing after her for more than twenty years. She might as well fulfil their wishes for once.
In any case, she was about to leave. No matter what they wanted to do in the future had nothing to do with her.
Someone had recorded the scene of Sima You Yue going through the lightning calamity. Just watching it made them tremble. They saw how Sima You Yue did not avoid the strikes. Instead, she went to face them. This caused a deep sense of respect for her bravery and strength to rise from the depths of their hearts.
“As expected of the legend of the Hidden Sect. nobody will ever be able to surpass her!”
“Sigh, there are some who exist merely to defeat others.”
“Isn’t that so? When you compare yourself to her, this year, we’ve simply been… sigh…”
While Sima You Yue was tending to her wounds, news of what she had done circulated around the Hidden Sect. Meanwhile, they were anticipating her examination even more.
While she was recovering, Mu Ye Qi and the others continued to come and see her. However, she had chased them all out, refusing to see anyone. She wasn’t an idol and she wasn’t a monkey. Why did each and everyone one of them insist on running over to see her!
Lu Yan was in his own courtyard when he heard the sounds of people coming and going beside the little mountain peak. It was a lot noisier than before, but he didn’t hate it.
Sima You Yue lay in her music room eating spirit fruits and listening to him play the zither.
“Master, you play so well.” Sima You Yue supported her chin with a single hand, “It’s a pity that I won’t be able to hear it for long.”
“You’ve decided as well?” Lu Yan asked her.
“Mm.” Sima You Yue nodded, “I told you before that the day I broke through the rank of Underworld Paragon, I would leave. It was already a rare opportunity for me to be able to stay here for such a long time.”
“It was rather surprising indeed. I thought that you would let yourself break through it earlier.” Lu Yan knew the condition of her body, which was why he was rather puzzled that she would choose to drag it out for such a long time.
“That would have gone against my original intentions in coming here in the first place.”?Sima You Yue smiled, “It’s just a pity that I won’t be able to participate in the wedding feast of my Masters before I go. What a pity.”
Although her two Masters had, under her machinations, developed mutual affections for each other over the past few years, they had not yet decided to be together.
Lu Yan’s expression stiffened a ltitle and refused to continue the topic, saying, “I’ve arranged for your examination to be conducted in half a month. Your wounds shouldn’t pose a problem to you when that time comes, right?”
“No problem.” Sima You Yue knew that her Master had a thick skin, and did not continue to tease him.
“With regards to the public exam, the sect members would also like to have a legendary figure to excite those in the sect to surpass.” Lu Yan took the initiative to explain it to her.
“I know.” Sima You Yue said, “However, before the exam, you should still let me hide in here.”
Lu Yan smiled and let her go.
She stayed here to recuperate, and who knew how many people went to the little mountain peak with intentions to find her only to be faced with Hai Xing and Hai Xi, who helped her keep them out.
Once they left the small mountain peak, they headed directly to Mo Wei’s courtyard.
“How is it, I didn’t lie to you guys, right?” Mo Wei said.
“Vice Sect Master Mo has always been sincere, it’s just that we would like to guarantee that the people are genuine.” One of the males said in a low voice, “Now that we’ve seen the people, we can confirm it.”
“I’ve already told you about the person. Whether or not you can bring them out has nothing to do with me.” Mo Wei said, “You’d better not forget what you’ve promised me!”
“How could we forget! As long as she leaves the Hidden Sect, we will immediately hunt her down. Now that the Ghost King is no longer around, we won’t have to pay heed to so many things.” The other party said.
“That’s good then.” Mo Wei didn’t tell them that Sima You Yue was from the Ninth Underworld Clan. It was fine as long as they could kill her. She didn’t care about anything else.
“When do you think is the best time for us to act?”
“Too many people have been coming to the little mountain peak lately. It’s too much of a commotion if you act now. You will be discovered easily. After she takes her examination in half a month, she will be too busy to care about the people beside her. That will be the time for you to act.” Mo Wei said, “Remember this point. You can only act outside the small town. If you attack her inside the sect, you will be attacked by the Hidden Sect.”
They definitely couldn’t rush it, or else they would drag her down as well!
“We understand. We will think of a way to draw her in.”
“I hope that you really do have a way to do so. Alright, we’ll leave the Hidden Sect first.”
After those people left, Liu Xu stepped forward to say, “Master, are we really going to do this?”
An icy chill emanated from Mo Wei, “If we hesitate any longer, she will leave this place. Those people know about the Hai Clan and are interested in those two as well. It’s extremely suitable to use them to act on our behalf.”
“But…” She wanted to say how powerful Sima You Yue was, and how she shielded her own. If she knew that they were setting up obstacles in her path, who knew what she would do.
However, Mo Wei was not one who would change her mind after having decided on something. Her heart pounded anxiously, especially on the day of Sima You Yue’s examinations.. When she received the news, a wave of terror rose in her heart.
