Chapter 1497: Letting others think of her idea Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations When those people saw the people over here, they had already given up all hope, but their hopes were raised once again. They increased their pace and ran over. If these people were strong, then there was a chance that they could be rescued. If they were weak, they would still be able to be like a shield and give them a chance to flee. They ran over and those spirit beasts chased after them. Every single one was around seven to eight metres long with a long set of wings, but they did not fly like one of the bird clans. Their bodies had spots like a leopard, and a long mane grew from their heads. As they chased after them, they howled. That voice was incredibly piercing when it reached their ears. “What spirit beasts are those?” Sima You Yue heard those roars and fear started to rise in her heart. Those sounds were clearly similar to the cries of a newborn, but while newborn cries would fill one with tenderness, that voice filled her with terror. “That’s a griffin!” Wu Lingyu saw those spirit beasts that were bird-like but not birds, like leopards but not leopards with a unicorn growing on their head and said in a low voice. “Griffin?” This was the first time that Sima You Yue had heard of this type of spirit beast and saw that the expressions of everyone else was rather solemn and said, “Are these guys difficult to defeat?” “It will be a little tedious, but it’s still alright.” compared to everyone else, Wu Lingyu wasn’t the slightest bit worried. The closer those people got, the larger those Griffins that were chasing after them appeared. Sima You Yue could smell the scent coming from them even clearer. The Xuan Qiu Clan and Eastern Lai Clan had no plans to escape. Although they were a little more on guard when they saw this, they were certain that they could defeat these people. “Lingyu, look!” Sima You Yue looked at the group of people running over and noticed that there was a silhouette that was rather familiar. “It’s Wei Xue Zhu. I didn’t think that the Yang Clansmen would actually run in front of us!” “Don’t underestimate the strength of these large clans.” Wu Lingyu said, “It’s not that hard to find this place.” “So you’re saying that we were a little slow.” Sima You Yue sighed. Since the Yang Clan had come, the other powers were definitely here as well. “The path we chose was a safer one. Otherwise, do you think that we would really have taken so long?” Wu Lingyu asked. Sima You Yue thought about it and it was true. They had walked for half a year! Although they had detoured a little on the path that Xuan Qiu He had chosen, they did not encounter any danger. This was a good plan to preserve their strength. They needed to use their real strength when they arrived here. It did not necessarily depend on who arrived here first. Otherwise, one who entered with their life would not leave with it. “Don’t stray from me.” When he saw the griffins getting closer, Wu Lingyu subconsciously warned her. Sima You Yue held onto his clothes and smiled, “This should be fine, right?” It was a rare chance for Wu Lingyu to see her act mischievously, so he laughed and stretched forth a hand to hold hers and said, “This will be good.” As the people ran closer, the Xuan Qiu Clan and Eastern Lai Clan were drawn into the fray. Sima You Yue followed Wu Lingyu and totally had no opportunity to get involved. When she saw that the battle was beyond her own abilities, she was filled with regret. Sigh, she had to get stronger. Once she settled the issue with her parents, she would go into seclusion. Otherwise, in an area where experts were everywhere, she would have the privilege to speak. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢 If others were aware of what she thought, they would definitely want to beat her up. She had clearly just advanced in rank in the Sima Clan, but she wanted to advance in rank again. She was even so young but had this kind of accomplishment. Now she was even lamenting her lack of power. She really deserved a beating! The battle did not last long. To be able to arrive here meant that these two large clans were not weak. Sima You Yue saw the dead bodies on the floor and said, “The griffin’s blood smells pretty fragrant. Flowey, retrieve those two carcasses. We’ll make meat stew when we’re back.” “Alrighty!” Flowey would never reject anything that had to do with food. “Although the griffin is relatively more powerful, their meat doesn’t have much spirit energy.” Eastern Lai Li said. “No problem. We’re not eating it because of their spirit energy anyway.” Sima You Yue replied, “If you guys don’t want them, give them to me. How about it?” “If you want it, you can take it.” Eastern Lai Li hadn’t the slightest bit of interest in those carcasses. “Then I’ll have to thank you!” Sima You Yue said gratefully. Then she looked at Xuan Qiu Zhi and the others. “We don’t want them either.” Xuan Qiu Zhi took the initiative to give it to her. “I’ll make some soup for you when we’re back.” Sima You Yue said to Xuan Qiu Zhi. Then she turned to Flowey and instructed her, “Leave me a few. You can have the rest.” “Really?” Flowey was excited and grew many flower buds. She used them to swallow the griffins whole. Quite a few from the Eastern Lai clan had their eyes flash with disdain. Only those contemptible people would contract this kind of low ranking spirit beast. “Thank you everyone for your assistance.” Yang Wei led Yang Gao Ming and the others to give everyone a big bow. “Hmph, Yang Wei, you’re really good at letting others suffer your own losses! Did Northern Du Hao teach you that? Eastern Lai Li did not have a good impression of the Yang Clan and said when she knew that they were walking closer to the Northern Du Clan. “Lady, you are mistaken. We did not intentionally drag you in. it’s just that we subconsciously ran for help when we saw someone.” Yang Wei explained. “Hmph, I don’t care whether you did it or not. Now that the danger has passed, you guys can leave.” Eastern Lai Li did not act courteous. It seemed like her relationship with the Yang Clan was not just averagely bad! When Wei Xue Zhu saw that Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu were at the back of the group, she subconsciously cried out, “It’s you!” “Madame Yang, what a coincidence!” Sima You Yue replied. “Madame, this is?” Yang Gao Ming asked. Wei Xue Zhu’s expression turned a little weird as she said, “She is Sima You Yue.” “What?!” Yang Gao Ming and the others looked at her differently now. They all turned over but they didn’t mention it. It wasn’t that they didn’t mention it, it was just that this wasn’t the time to pursue this. Once this situation is over, they would talk about it if she was still alive. “For saving us, we will definitely repay the favour if the situation arrives in the future. We will take our leave for now.” Yang Wei led his men and left after speaking. Shui’er snorted as they left, saying, “if they truly wanted to repay us, why wouldn’t’ they ask us who we were? We know who they are, but they don’t know who we are! Hmph!” Sima You Yue looked at her laudingly. Not bad, she could tell at a glance. She watched the backs of the Yang clan as they left, her gaze deep. “What are you thinking?” “I’m thinking of what Uncle He said.” Sima You Yue siad, “If the Yang Clan is really involved in that, they would probably bring that too. However, within their group, there isn’t anyone wearing a black mantle.” “If they are here, we will meet them eventually.” Wu Lingyu said, “Then again, if this is true, these types of things that they should keep hidden will not be so casually shown to others.” “In any case, I will get my bees to follow after them.” Sima You Yue gave a thought, the bees who had followed close to them left in their direction.
