Chapter 1942: Looking for death

Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

They wandered around Black Cloud Mountain for a few days, but did not discover anything special. With regards to the activity in Black Cloud Mountain, apart from seeing some underworld beasts rampaging around, there was not anything really out of the ordinary.

She caught a few underworld beasts to question them, but even they did not know what was going on. They just knew that there was some sort of power controlling them, causing them to lose their free will.

She couldn’t get any answers from them, so she had no choice but to let them go.

“Did your scarlet bees manage to find out anything?” Mo Yu asked.

“Nope.” Sima You Yue shook her head, “The information that they sent back merely said that the underworld beasts are acting a little strange. They haven’t discovered anything particular in the area that they’re gathering in, either. It doesn’t look like any rare treasure is going to appear.”

Mo Yu had said earlier that there was no rare treasure here, so she wasn’t too disappointed when she heard this news. She merely felt like it was more puzzling the more she investigated. It made her want to dig deeper into it.

“Boom-”

Sounds of confrontation came from afar and they looked over. They realised that there were two groups of powers fighting each other.

Even without seeing any sign of treasure, many people had died.

At this time, a group of people ran over from a small pathway beside them, surrounding the five of them. When they saw the ground of people appear from behind, Sima You Yue raised her eyebrows in surprise.

It seems like some people had intentionally come over to seek death!

Shui Shan and the others walked out from the back of the group. When they saw Sima You Yue’s group surrounded, she raised her chin and said arrogantly, “Father, Mother, this is the person. She cursed at me saying that the people from my Divine Shadow Palace are a group of people without education. She even said that we’re too weak and not worthy of coming here, and that everyone who comes here will die. Not only that, they even want to kill your daughter! Father, Mother, you have to find justice for your daughter!

Shui Shan’s father, Shui Shen, heard his daughter say this and his expression darkened. He looked at Sima You Yue with eyes filled with muder, “You not only cursed my Divine Shadow Palace, but even tried to kill my daughter. Brat, you’re really bold!”

Sima You Yue saw how arrogant Shui Shan was and shook her head, “If I were you, I would be more than glad to be rid of a daughter like her! Her mouth is full of lies and has brought you to death’s door. What is the use of keeping her?”

“I didn’t lie. You did curse at us before, and you did try to kill me! Father, if you do not believe me, you can ask my seniors. They were all there.” Shui Shan was not afraid of her father asking them. In any case, they were all in this together. Even if he asked them, the results would still be the same.

Shui Shen did not plan to ask for a confirmation either. No matter what happened before, she actually dared to bully people from the Divine Shadow Palace, which meant that there was no need to let them off.

“Brat, on account of the fact that you’re still younger than my daughter, if you’re willing to kneel down and admit to your mistakes and destroy your spirit energy, I can still let you live!” Shui Shan’s mother was always fiercely protective of her child. She was even unwilling to say a single harsh word to her, but this woman actually dared to kill her. If not because she was in a rush to look for treasure, she would definitely kill her!

Sima You Yue laughed when she heard those words, “You said that you want me to kneel down? And destroy my spirit energy?”

“That’s right! This is already considered a lenient sentence. Not only are you not deeply grateful, you even have this kind of expression?” Shui Shan’s mother yelled when she saw Sima You Yue’s disdainful gaze.

“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. It’s no wonder you are all the same.” Sima You Yue shook her head and clicked her tongue. “I wonder how people like you have lived till this day!”

“Father, look. She doesn’t care about us at all. She doesn’t care about what Mother has said at all.’ Shui Shan said, “There’s no use in keeping people like her alive at all. Mother, you’re too softhearted.”

“Mm. She really is hateful. Let’s just kill her, then.” Shui Shen initially only wanted to give her a minor punishment. If she was willing to heed to their words just now, he would have let her live.

Since she was so stubborn and even humiliated them to their face, he wouldn’t give her any chance to live anymore!

“Why are you all still so distracted! Aren’t you going to attack her yet! Don’t you understand what my father has said?” Shui Shan yelled at her people.

Those people were used to obeying Shui Shan. Now that they heard her orders, they immediately attacked Sima You Yue.

“How bold!” Black Shadow and Huan moved with a flash, and one only heard the sounds of their underworld tools stabbing into the bodies before it stopped, and those people were now motionless where they stood.

“What are you all still standing there for? Aren’t you going to attack!” Shui Shan yelled.

“Pffft-”

Fresh blood sprayed out, and everyone who was initially standing, started to collapse to the ground. Not a single person remained!

Everyone had been ma.s.sacred in a single breath of time. This scene was too much for them to handle and those from the Divine Shadow Palace were stunned.

These two people were actually so powerful!

Shui Shen’s expression had turned extremely ugly. Before talking about anyone else, even he was unable to see how these two people had done it!

These two people were much more powerful than he was!

Shui Shan was stunned. Were these people actually so powerful? She wondered whether or not her Father would be able to defeat them. She looked at her father and saw that he had turned stiff. He did not move an inch from where he stood, and she knew that he had been scared as well.

“Divine Shadow Palace.” Mo Yu’s voice was light as he spoke their name. “You truly are very bold. Tsk tsk, your position must be higher than the King. Otherwise, how would you dare to order the King’s most beloved Young Princess to kneel to you and destroy her spirit energy?”

“Young- Young Princess?”

Shui Shan and the others were stunned. This person was actually the Young Princess? How was that possible? Shouldn’t the Young Princess be surrounded by royal guards? What was she doing here like this!

At this time, someone who was following behind them suddenly shouted, “That’s right, she’s the Young Princess! That time, when I was outside, I saw them in the recording stone that recorded the incident at Sheep City! I took a long long and saw the silhouette of that person. It looks very similar to her!”

“Don’t talk nonsense. There are many people who have similar silhouettes. How could that prove that she is the Young Princess !” Shui Shan’s Mother roared.

They were unwilling to admit that she was the Young Princess right now. Otherwise, what they did earlier on was enough to cause them to die a thousand deaths. They recalled the power that had offended the Young Princess before, and they had been exterminated by the Ghost King.

Shui Shen really regretted it now. Why did he come and kill these people just based on his daughter’s words? There were so few of them and she didn’t have the disposition of a princess either, so how was he supposed to know that it was her?

“Young- Young Princess. We were blind and did not recognise you. We were wrong. We beg you to let us return!” Shui Shen’s legs went weak and he immediately knelt down, kowtowing to Sima You Yue.

“Didn’t you want me to kowtow to you earlier on? Didn’t you want me to destroy my spirit energy? Why have you stopped asking me to do it?” Sima You Yue said.

“Young Princess, it’s all because of my daughter’s false words. How could I possibly allow you, Young Princess, to do anything like that?”

“Too late. I gave you a chance to live but you did not grasp the opportunity. I told you, you would regret having a daughter like her.”

After she finished speaking, Black Shadow and Huan stepped forward and killed every single one of them.

“Tsk tsk, Young Princess, you are exactly like your mother.. You don’t even bat an eye when killing!” A voice sounded from midair, and it’s pressure suffocated Sima You Yue.
