Chapter 1489: Nobody dares to provoke Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations Instead of falling into contemplation, Wei Xue Zhu seemed to be more in shock. Ghost City? Was that not just a legendary place? Although it was just a legendary place, those of her level knew that they definitely couldn’t afford to offend one if they met them! “Madame!” The guards rushed to surround her, wanting to take action against Si Yi. Stop!” Wei Xue Zhu hurriedly cried out to stop them. They were from Ghost City, how dared they provoke them?! “Madame?” The guards turned around with shock. This didn’t seem like their Madame’s usual way of doing things, though? She had been injured, but she actually swallowed her anger? This was too inconceivable! Wei Xue Zhu crawled up from the ground and looked at them with fear. When she saw that they did not plan to continue attacking them, she ordered those around her, “Let’s go!’ Although her guards were shocked, they obeyed her orders and left with her. “It seems like these people know about Ghost City.” Sima You Yue said confidently. “Others may or may not know, we have no way to confirm that. However, that lady definitely knows. Wu Lingyu said, “Based on their identity, they will know of things that others do not.” “That’s true. But Second Brother, if you guys do this, wouldn’t you expose Ghost City?” Sima You Yue said. “If it is exposed, then so be it. It’s not like Ghost City is a place that has to be hidden.” Si Yi didn’t care for it, “We just never cared to maintain contact with the outside world, it doesn’t mean that we’re afraid of it. It’s not like just anyone can enter that place. People like you are few and far in between.” “It’s not like everyone has someone trapped inside Ghost City, alright!’ Sima You Yue said with a smile, “Right now, Yang Si’s issue can be considered to be settled.” “Mm. We can have peace for the time being.” Si Yue beamed, “Next up, we can decide how to deal with this problem!” For the following days, the Yang Clan really did not come over. The Fang and Li Clan didn’t even appear at all. After Wu Lingyu mentioned it once, he never again spoke about going in. He would occasionally disappear. “You Yue, You Yue!” Si Yue ran in from the outside. When she saw Sima You Yue reading, she beamed as she ran over. She sat beside her, picked up the tea on the table and drank a mouthful. “What’s wrong? You ran over so urgently.” Sima You Yue raised her head and looked at her. “They found the dead bodies of Yang Si and the others.” Si Yue spoke after she finished drinking the tea. “They found it?” Sima You Yue was a little surprised. They were actually about to find them. It seemed like the Yang Clan was quite competent! “Mm. It’s said that only their bones were left.” Si Yue said. “Then did they say anything?” Sima You Yue asked. “What else could they say? The final result was that Yang Si and the others really did run in there on their own, encountered spirit beasts and were killed because they were not powerful enough. It has absolutely nothing to do with us.” Si Yue smiled extremely happily, “Let me tell you something. The funniest joke is that their bones were all scattered around. You couldn’t even tell whose bones belonged to whom.” “So much time has already passed. The fact that they were able to find their remains is already amazing.” Sima You Yue smiled lightly. “How did they manage to enter without getting lost?” Si Yue was a little puzzled about that point. “When we went in, most of our time was spent walking around the periphery in the beginning. That’s why we didn’t end up too deep in. Later on, we got lost because we ended up walking in the wrong direction. As for them, they only wanted to look for the dead bodies of Yang Si and the others, so they didn’t stay in there for long. If they immediately left in the direction they came from, they wouldn’t get lost.” Sima You Yue explained. “So you just have to know the direction in order not to get lost.” Si Yue said, “If we went inside, as long as we knew the direction, we might not get lost. It’s a pity that all the guiding spirit tools have no effect in there.” Sima You Yue and the others had tried it before. They took out those compasses, but the needles would spin nonstop. They were completely unable to point the way. “There will be a way to deal with it.” Sima You Yue said. “Mmhmm. I believe that there’s a way too! I’m going to go and try again. I’ll let you know the moment there’s any news.” “Alright. Go ahead.” 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺 Ever since news that Si Yue and the others came from Ghost City was spread out, the various powers instructed their men not to provoke them. No matter where Si Yue was now, they had no need to worry that some blind person would mess with her. That was why she had no need to worry about her safety right now. Si Yue went out again and Sima You Yue lowered her head, wanting to continue reading. However, she couldn’t calm down. In this world where the weak were preyed upon, if one was not strong enough, they would definitely be bullied! That day when Wei Xue Zhu had gone over, she just wanted to find some people to vent her anger out on. Although everyone knew that they didn’t appear to have anything to do with the situation, they thought that they were weak. That was why they were used as scapegoats. That day, if Si Yi and the others did not block them, even if she wanted to deal with the situation, it would have been thorny. That was why she had to become stronger! Thinking to this point, she felt a sense of urgency towards the ancient mines. If she was able to obtain something, she would be able to become stronger. However, she first had to think of a way. One day later, Wu Lingyu returned. He silently led Sima You Yue out the tent. “What’s going on?” Sima You Yue saw how secretive he was and asked. “We’re going in.” Wu Lingyu said. “To the desert?” Sima You Yue was a little surprised. Ever since the last time he mentioned it, he didn’t talk about it again in the past half a month. Why was he suddenly talking about leading her in? “Mm.” “Aren’t we telling them?” “The situation there is unstable. I have confidence to bring you, but if there are too many people and I am suddenly unable to take care of them, you’ll be sad if they die.” Wu Lingyu said. “I’ll leave a note for them.” By the time Si Yue found out, Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu had already arrived inside the desert. Even if they followed them now, they wouldn’t be able to catch up to them. “This girl, she even dares to tell me that I definitely can’t go in. Once I meet her, I’ll definitely skin her!” Si Yue roared. On the other hand, Si Yi and Si Hui felt that it was pretty good that Sima had done this. No matter what the ancient mines had, it had nothing to do with them as Dark Spirit Masters. Things that were not of the dark spirit attribute were completely useless to them. That was why they didn’t mind not going into the desert. It was too dangerous and meaningless, so it was best for them to stay out of it. Initially, Si Yue wanted to go in so they could only accompany her. Now that she couldn’t go, they could heave a sigh of relief. “Don’t be angry. Didn’t she leave you a temporary life jade. As long as it doesn’t shatter, it proves that she’s safe! Don’t worry.” Si Hui said. “Who said that I’m worried. Hmph, I’m just upset that she left me alone to go and have fun!’ Si Yue cried out, “This brat, she better not let me see her!” “Achoo-” Sima You Yue rubbed her nose, “That girl must be cursing me, complaining about how I didn’t take her along to play. Hey, you did this on purpose didn’t you?”
