Chapter 92: So This Is The Case

"You Yue, you're obviously a female, why do you have to disguise yourself as a male?" Fatty Qu asked.

Sima You Yue pursed her lips, saying, "I don't know either, Grandfather is the one who asked me to. He never told me the reason either."

"Rest a.s.sured, we have already discussed it just now, we won't tell anyone about this. The fact that you're a woman will never come out from our lips."

"Mm, I know you all won't tell." Sima You Yue said definitively, if they even had a single possibility of having this thought, she would not have gone to save them, anyway.

"Wu-"

The sound of sleeping talking came from the side, reminding Sima You Yue and the others of their presence.

"Who are these people and why did they want to hurt us?" Wei Zi Qi asked with furrowed eyebrows as he looked at the group of people flung on the ground.

"Look carefully at the person on the extreme left." Sima You Yue said

The person on the extreme left?

When Fatty Qu that flung that person's body down, he was lying face down and he was facing towards the wall so n.o.body noticed him.

When they heard what Sima You Yue said, Fatty Qu ran over and gave him a kick, causing him to flip over and face the ceiling.

"It's him?" Fatty Qu called out with surprise.

"Fatty Qu, you know him?" Wei Zi Qi asked.

"I'm not the only one, you guys know him as well." Fatty Qu stepped away to let the others see the face on the ground as well.

"It's him?!"

"How could it be him? Don't tell me…"

The three of them had been shocked when they saw this people and all recalled their previous encounter with the wolf pack. They had found it strange at the time, and looking at it now, these people must have intentionally led the wolf pack to them.

"These people actually keep trying to kill us over and over again!" Wei Zi Qi clenched his fists, with only his good upbringing stopped him from rus.h.i.+ng up to kill them all immediately.

"Who are these people? Why do they want to kill us?" Ouyang Fei didn't understand.

"I think I know the reason." Fatty Qu said.

"You do?" Bei Gong Tang looked at Fatty Qu and wondered how he could possibly know.

Fatty Qu came beside the person and gave him a kick. He looked at his face and said, "I know this jerk. He's one cla.s.s above us, he's called Shou Hou."

"In this case, these people are all from our school?" Wei Zi Qi asked.

Fatty Qu nodded, saying, this Shou Hou is in the same cla.s.s as Wu Tian. As for that Wu Tian, I heard that he's head over heels for Nalan Lan."

"So you're saying that they want to harm us in order to help Nalan Lan take revenge because we chased her out of school." Sima You Yue said, "At the end of the day, it's me who has burdened you all!"

"You Yue, don't say that. We are a team, what's this about burdening or not burdening. If it wasn't for you, we would have turned into the Acacia Silk Snake's lunch." Wei Zi Qi said.

"Yeah, You Yue don't think about nonsense." Fatty Qu said, "Since we know that these people are from the academy, what should we do now? How should we settle these people?"

Everyone quieted down when he said this. According to their way of thinking, it would definitely be tooth for tooth, an eye for an eye. These people wanted to kill them so there was no need to leave them with their lives.

However, they knew now that these people were from the academy. According to rules of the academy, you weren't allowed to harm other students or else you would be expelled. This was a large handcuff on what they could possibly do.

Everyone looked to sima You Yue. Since they had come because of her, she had the most right to decide.

Sima You Yue smiled, saying, "I don't recognise a single one of them. Since we encountered some people trying to kill us in Pu Luo Mountain Range, it's natural for us to retaliate. It's not like we know who these people are, right?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard Sima You Yue say this.

"Yeah, we don't know who these people are at all; don't know which faction they belong to. Totally don't know why they want to hurt us." Bei Gong Tang was the first to react and replied Sima You Yue.

There were many people who went in and out of the Pu Luo Mountain Range. If they met someone who tried to kill them, they would definitely retaliate. If they accidentally killed them, it had nothing to do with the school.

Afterall, they really didn't know their ident.i.ties before.

"Yeah, we don't recognise them." Wei Zi Qi also affirmed as he nodded his head.

"Since this is the case, what do we do with these people that we don't recognise, yet still wanted to kill us? Ouyang Fei asked.

Sima You Yue smiled secretly when she heard everyone speak this way. These guys, each and everyone single one of them acted innocent but were actually so evil.

"No matter what we do, in any case, we can't let them leave this mountain alive." Bei Gong Tang said, "If we have no other ideas, I don't mind personally ending their lives."

"Why dirty our own hands." Sima You yue said, "Since they know how to use Spirit Beasts to attack us, we have to pay them back in full, exactly as they have done to us."

"You Yue, what good ideas do you have? Fatty Qu saw the gleam in Sima You Yue's eyes and knew that she had thought of another good idea.

"This… you will know when the time comes." Sima You Yue didn't say anything, she only smiled secretively.

When the others saw this, they knew she had an idea and didn't probe any further.

"Uhmm, You Yue…" After they finished speaking about this, Bei Gong Tang looked at Sima You Yue as if she had something to say but was hesitant.

Sima You Yue immediately knew what she meant. With a single thought, a Golden Snake Fruit appeared in her hands.

She handed the Golden Snake Fruit over, saying, "You should keep this first. The Golden Snake Fruit shouldn't be left out for too long or else it will attract Spirit Beasts over."

"It's really the Golden Snake Fruit!" Fatty Qu looked at that Golden Snake Fruit with surprise, "You Yue, how did you manage this?"

"Don't ask about this, you guys." Sima You Yue shoved the Golden Snake Fruit into Bei Gong Tang's hands and she quickly kept it into her interspatial ring.

"You Yue, thank you!"

Although Sima You Yue didn't say it, everyone knew that it definitely wasn't easy. Especially since so many Spirit Beasts and experts had coveted this.

Sima You Yue looked the three of them in the eye, saying, " You all have a share. However, if one were to directly ingest this, the power would be too explosive and one's body would definitely not be able to handle it. Do you all want the fruit right now or the pill?"

Fatty Qu and the others thought about it for a while and said, "Since the fruit is not too useful for humans to directly consume, I'll prefer the pill."

"I want the pill as well." Wei Zi Qi said.

Ouyang Fei thought it over for a moment, saying, "I want the fruit."

Sima You Yue didn't ask why as she took a fruit and handed it to Ouyang Fei who immediately kept it.

They had previously agreed that as long as they helped Bei Gong Tang scatter that thing onto the bodies of the Nalan Clan's people, she would distribute these to them. As a result, they could have whatever they wanted.

In any case, she had kept the Golden Snake Fruit Tree, so with regards to her, whose soul was damaged, that was the greatest treasure. Furthermore, Little Spirit had already told her that she could transfer out an individual s.p.a.ce, where she could speed up time, reducing the time it took for the Golden Snake Fruit to mature. Who knows, she might have a few more Golden Snake Fruits not too far from now.

As for pills, Mo Sha could help her settle that. All she needed to do during the fusing stage was to input some Spirit Power and it would be enough.

When they saw that Sima You Yue was so generous, the hearts of the other four were extremely moved and this team was even more united than before.

Chapter 93: Saint Beast Great Argus

"Fatty, Zi Qi, it looks like I'm going to need some time before I can pa.s.s you both your pills." Sima You Yue said.

"No worries, we're not in a rush." Fatty Qu said

They were secretly thinking that they didn't actually help out much for this so they should already be pleasantly surprised that they had already gotten something out if it. If they really were able to increase a rank by obtaining the fruit then waiting for a period of time was really nothing much.

"Oh right, You Yue, what was that thing that you called us to scatter on the Nalan Clan?" Bei Gong Tang asked.

"Enchanting Powder." Sima You Yue said, "As long as that smell sticks on your body, you'll never be able to wash it off no matter how hard you try."

"What does it do?" Ouyang Fei asked.

"That… wait for the effects to take place then you will know." Sima You Yue smirked evilly.

Since the Nalan Clan wanted to go out and find trouble with the Sima Clan, she would make it so that they wouldn't be able to go out at all.

"Enough, You Yue is injured and can't speak too much. Everyone is tired so we should all get some rest." Ouyang Fei said.

"Mm."

Because Sima You Yue and Bei Gong Tang were sleeping on the bed, Ouyang Fei and the others could only look for a place to rest somewhere inside the cave. They didn't bring a bed so they had to make do with chairs and whatever they brought along.

The cave soon became quiet because everyone was already worn out by everything that happened in the day and fell asleep quickly.

Sima You Yue looked at the side of Ouyang Fei's face and her eyes flashed with suspicion.

Fourth Ranked pills were a rarity in Dong Chen Kingdom. He said he was an orphan so how did he obtain such a precious pill? Furthermore, no matter how you looked at it, she felt that he wasn't an ordinary person.

Although her heart held many suspicions, she didn't say anything. Just like how she held many secrets, who didn't have things that they didn't want others to know?

A night pa.s.sed by quickly and Sima You Yue's pill that healed her inner body quickly revealed its usefulness. Added on to her particular body const.i.tution, when she woke up on the second day, she was already able get off the bed and walk around.

"d.a.m.n, You Yue, your healing abilities are too amazing, okay!" When they saw Sima You Yue like that, the few of them stared at her with gaping mouths.

"It's the effect of Ouyang Fei's medicine that is amazing." Sima You Yue attributed all her healing to that pill.

"Bei Gong, how are you doing?" Ouyang Fei didn't reply Sima You Yue's underlying question and turned instead to ask Bei Gong Tang.

"Apart from some pain still remaining in my legs, I'm okay in other areas." Bei Gong Tang smiled in reply.

Although the pill that Sima You Yue gave her was not ranked too highly, the wounds that she had received were not that serious so it was no big deal.

"Let's rest for one more day today. We'll carry on doing other things tomorrow." Wei Zi Qi looked towards the people lying near the wall as he said.

The things that he was talking about doing was obviously to deal with them.

"The two of you rest first, I'll go look for something to eat and return." Ouyang Fei said.

"No need, I have them." Sima You Yue said.

"Then I'll go fetch some water."

"I have that too." Sima You Yue said.

"What about firewood?"

Sima You Yue wanted to say that she had that as well but she didn't want everyone to think that she was Doraemon, so she smiled and shook her head.

"Then we'll go and look for some firewood." Ouyang Fei said as he walked out.

"We'll be nearby, if you need anything just shout loudly and we'll rush back."

After he finished speaking, Wei Zi Qi and Ouyang fei walked out as well.

"What's up with them?" Sima You Yue saw the three of them rush out as she looked at Bei Gong Tang with confusion.

"Cough cough, it appears that there's something that's not too convenient for them to talk about." Bei Gong Tang said.

"Something not too convenient to talk about? Then it's convenient over there?" Sima You Yue nodded with understanding.

It was just having to answer the call of nature, how was this something so inconvenient to say? Sima You Yue looked down on the three of them in her heart.

However, she never thought about the fact that she used to have the ident.i.ty of guy so they wouldn't think too much about saying these kind of things in front of her. Now that they knew she was female, they started to feel awkward about it.

"Bei Gong, you've already obtained the Golden Snake Fruit so you should quickly give it to your contracted Beast to eat." Sima You Yue said.

"Mm." Bei Gong Tang nodded. With a single thought, a green bird appeared in the cave.

"This is… a Great Argus?" Sima You Yue looked at Meng Ji's appearance and asked in surprise.

The Great Argus belonged to the Phoenix family and the teacher said before that the Yi Lin continent didn't have any phoenixes. But Bei Gong Tang actually had a contract with a Great Argus… was she someone who was actually not from the mainland at all?!

Bei Gong Tang turned a blind eye towards Sima You Yue whose eyes were filled with surprise and then understanding. She knew that Sima You Yue would understand a few things after seeing Meng Ji, but she believed that Sima You Yue would never breathe a word of it.

"Meng Ji, Meng Ji." Bei Gong Tang called a few times before Meng Ji slowly opened her eyes.

"Master." Meng Ji's voice was a bit weak and it appeared that her wounds were not shallow. She thought that Bei Gong Tang would not call her out without reason so her eyes shone, "Master, you called me out, don't tell me it's because…"

Bei Gong Tang smiled as she took out the Golden Snake Fruit and placed it beside Meng Ji's beak, saying, "This Golden Snake Fruit was s.n.a.t.c.hed by You Yue, we have to thank her."

Meng Ji looked at Sima You Yue who was lying down on the bed and said gratefully, "Thank you."

Sima You Yue waved her hands, saying, "Your family'sMaster has already pledged her life to me so you don't have to thank me."

When Meng Ji heard this, she looked to Bei Gong Tang with alarm, saying, "Master, how could you do this? If you have to use your entire life's happiness to trade for this, Meng Ji will never take it!"

"Pfft-" When she saw Meng Ji's reaction, Sima You Yue immediately burst out laughing.

"Meng Ji, You Yue was just teasing you." Bei Gong Tang said, "She's a woman, how could I follow her all my life. Alright, if we let this Golden Snake Fruit remain outside for too long, it will attract Spirit Beasts. Quickly eat it then go back to recover."

"Master, she's really a female?" Meng Ji was still looking at Sima You Yue with suspicion. How could she not even notice that Sima You Yue was a female? Even her scent didn't reveal it.

"Enough, quickly eat it and return." Sima You Yue said, "Not only is your body injured, the damage to your soul isn't light. That's why you haven't recovered enough though it's been such a long time. Aside from being able to increase your strength, the Golden Snake Fruit will also heal your soul. Aren't you going to quickly go back and recuperate yet?"

Meng Ji was incomparably shocked. How did she know that her soul was wounded? This was something that even Bei Gong Tang didn't know.

"Her soul was injured? No wonder her wound didn't heal a single bit even though it had been such a long time." Bei Gong Tang said.

"Since this is the case, I will return first." Meng Ji saw the questioning look in Bei Gong Tang's eyes and picked up the Golden Snake Fruit with her beak before heading back into the contracted s.p.a.ce.

Seeing that Bei Gong Tang was quite anxious, Sima You Yue smiled, saying, "She doesn't want to tell you because she doesn't want you to worry. Anyway, she has the Golden Snake Fruit so I believe she will be alright in no time. You should stop worrying."

"You Yue, how did you know that Meng Ji's soul was injured?" Bei Gong Tang asked.

"Because I have discerning eyes!" Sima You Yue laughed and said. She would never say that Mo Sha was the one who had told her and could only skirt the topic by asking, "Oh right, how come those three guys still haven't returned?"

She just finished speaking when she heard the sound of footsteps. It was obvious that the sound came from inside the mountain, however, it wasn't three people, it was a bunch of people.

Bei Gong Tang could also hear that the footsteps were a little off and the two of them headed to the cave entrance cautiously, on full alert.
