Chapter 1776: Know your mistakes and admit them Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations Sima You Yue was setting up her array in the courtyard, and when she turned her head, she saw three black faces. She raised her eyebrows, these three people came so quickly? She hasn’t arranged it yet! “Miss, what do you mean? We are going to participate in the region competition as a contestant. It is impossible to be one of your little pets!” “That’s right! Although you are a young lady, we are not from the manor, nor are the ones you snatched from outside.” “You are insulting us by doing this! We must go to the Duke to ask clearly, what does this mean?!” Before she could speak, those people started berating her angrily. “Uh -” Sima You Yue touched her nose, “Did you make a mistake?” “What’s wrong? Didn’t you bring us here? Isn’t this the first place where you keep your male pets?!” “I really didn’t ask you to come yet...” Sima You Yue said innocently. She just asked the steward to notify them to come here in a while, who knew they had come so quickly. “You still dare to quibble!” “Forget it, Zi Ping, don’t waste time with her, let’s go to the Duke and ask for an explanation!” “You are right, let’s go to the Duke.” The three of them were about to leave after they had finished speaking. As soon as they turned around, they saw Murong Hui coming in. “Greetings Duke.” Facing Murong Hui, although he lost his aggressive momentum, he was still very angry, but he respectfully saluted him. Murong Hui saw that the three of them were angry, and asked, “What’s wrong?” 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚 He looked at Sima You Yue, who shrugged her shoulders, curled her lips, and said nothing. “Duke, this Hibiscus Court is where Miss keeps her male pets. What does she mean by letting us be brought here? Isn’t it because she wants us to be gigolos?” The character of the person named Gu Zi Ping was the most impulsive, and he directly questioned the stunned Murong Hui. “What pet? Xi’er doesn’t want you to be anything like that!” “No? Then why would you call us to Hibiscus Court?” The three were stunned. If Sima You Yue said no, they would not believe it. But now that the Duke said so, they were a little skeptical. “This matter is very important, you three have to swear not to say it.” Murong Hui stared at the three people as his expression turned somber. The three of them were all cultivated by Murong Hui with his own hands. To put it bluntly, they owe their success and lives to him. If they weren’t able to keep today’s affairs a secret, he would even simply just make them dumb for life, so that they can’t say nothing. “The Duke can rest assured that if we talk about today’s affairs, we will be struck by thunder.” The three vowed solemnly together. Unlike the human world, the people of the Ghost Clan are even more afraid of such an oath, because the gods will chop them clean when they break the contract. After Murong Hui and the other three swear an oath, Murong Hui said: “We are here to set up a Spirit Gathering Array, which can attract spirit power from other places and speed up your cultivation.” “Spirit Gathering Array?!” The three of them all looked at Murong Hui in shock, “Duke, is that the legendary Spirit Gathering Array?” “Yes. This Spirit Gathering Array has been lost for a long time. If it is announced, you all know how big a wave it will cause.” Murong Hui warned them, “The region competition is about to start. Only a stable environment will be conducive to your cultivation. With this Spirit Gathering Array, your cultivation will surely get twice the result with half the effort. Don’t miss such a good opportunity.” The three of them were all excited, but they didn’t expect that they would be able to use this Spirit Gathering Array one day. “I will definitely cultivate hard and live up to the Duke’s expectations!” The three said in unison. Murong Hui was very satisfied with their attitude. “My Duke, I have a question, why do you want to set up a Spirit Gathering Array here?” Gu Zi Ping asked. “Naturally, it is to avoid people’s eyes and ears.” Murong Hui said, “The people that were kept here have been quietly released, but others don’t know, and they won’t know that you are living here.” So that was the case, it seems that they really misunderstood. The three scratched their ears, and then bowed to Sima You Yue apologetically: “Miss, I’m sorry, we misunderstood you before, and we were rude to you. Please punish us.” “Remember to give someone the opportunity to explain next time.” Sima You Yue didn’t say magnanimously that it was alright, but the attitude of the three of them who knew their mistakes and could correct them was good. “Xi’er, have you arranged it yet?” Murong Hui asked. “Two arrays have been completed, and the last one needs just a little bit more to be done.” Sima You Yue said, “I’m about to make the last point, and they will come in.” Gu Zi Ping and the three people only noticed that she still had two array stones in her hand. Just now because he was so angry, he didn’t even notice it. “My Duke, is this array arranged by Miss?” “That’s right, otherwise why do you think she is here?” Murong Hui said. “Miss... is an Array Master?” I haven’t heard of it before! “There are some things, it’s better to be not rely on hearsay.” Sima You Yue advised authoritatively, although Murong Xi and her had never spoken, she was still Murong Hui’s beloved daughter and her own godsister. “Father, I’m going to fix the rest.” “Go ahead.” Murong Hui said with a smile. He discovered that as long as she had acknowledged any matter, she would put her heart to it. Gu Zi Ping and the others were advised in such a manner and they were a little unconvinced. Although they haven’t had much contact with Murong Xi, they still heard a lot. Was she an Array Master? And even knew how to arrange the long lost array? This was too impossible, right?! But seeing Sima You Yue really arranging the array meticulously, the three of them felt that what she had just advised was right, it was very time, or it would be better to have less hearsay. Sima You Yue had arranged the array and doing so consumed a lot of energy. Very soon, her small face was a little pale and her complexion was very bad. Seeing it made Murong Hui feel distressed. “Father, imbue some spirit power over here.” Sima You Yue pointed to a place and said. Her current strength was very poor and that little pitiful spirit power was not enough to activate such a large array. Murong Hui came to the place where Sima You Yue pointed out, imbued spirit power in it and activated the array. It immediately enveloped the entire front of the house. Sima You Yue then asked him to activate the other two arrays. “There are three rooms in this house, one for each of you.” Sima You Yue said, “When my strength improves in the future, I will upgrade your array.” “Thank you, Miss.” Sima You Yue didn’t embarrass them any further. Murong Hui saw her she seemed to have no energy, and said: “First take the pill, and then go back to rest. For this array, you have been tired for ten over days.” Sima You Yue ate the pill, and said a little discouraged: “It’s also because the strength is too low now. If the strength improves, it will only take an hour or two to deploy this array.” I miss the days when I had the strength before!
