Ouyang Fei went to send Sima You Yue and the others when they left South Eclipse Kingdom. However, he didn’t go along with them.
Not longer after the meeting would start, he would go together with the people of the South Eclipse Kingdom to watch them compete as an honored guest.
Saint City was situated in the centre of the four kingdoms but could not be classified as one of the four kingdoms. It was its own independent place.
But even though a place like this that didn’t have a city lord, nobody dared to mess around in here. This was a place that held powers that not a single person dared offend.
Sage Pavilion had a unparalleled position in everyone’s heart. Even those who did not believe in the sages dared not utter a single bad thing about the Sage Pavilion. When Sima You Yue heard others introduce it, she suddenly felt as if the position of this Sage Pavilion was even higher than every single power on this continent, stronger than every power and kingdom.
Aside from the Sage Pavilion, this place also had the Alchemist Guild, Armament Master Guild, Beast Tamer Master Guild and the other guilds. It was the biggest HQ of every single guild. If one were able to enter this place, their position would be higher than the position anywhere else.
As a result, nobody had to oversee this place to ensure that no kingdom would dare invade. No power would dare contest it.
Sima You Yue and the others took the teleportation array to the border of South Eclipse Kingdom. Because she was motion sick taking the teleportation array, everyone planned to rest for a day before taking a flying spirit beast to Saint City.
Although Saint City was rather higher in influence, the outside world did not have any teleportation array that would take them in. Once they reached the border of the kingdoms, they could only take their flying spirit beasts in.
Sima You Yue and the others came to an inn. All the inns were packed tight because the meeting was about to begin. They had no choice but to share two to a room and reserved the last ten rooms.
Guests, these are your room numbers and keys.
The innkeeper handed the keys over to Sima You Yang.
Let’s go, first take You Yue up to take a rest.
Sima You Yang said with a laugh.
He was happy every time he saw her down with motion sickness. Cough cough, this wasn’t right, wasn’t right.
How could Sima You Yue not be able to tell how happy this guy was at her misfortune. She shot him a deadly glance, then took the room keys and turned around.
I’ll room with you.
Sima You Ran followed Sima You Yue up.
Her brothers knew that she was female, so they had no desire of letting their younger sister room with another male.
Sima You Yue handed the remaining keys to the others, and everyone chose the person they were going to room with.
At this moment, two ladies walked in. One was clad in a white skirt while one was in an alluring red. Both of them were exceptionally beautiful.
Innkeeper, give us two rooms.
The red skirted lady said to the innkeeper.
Oh my, I’m sorry you two, this inn’s rooms are fully booked.
The innkeeper apologised.
Full?
The red skirted lady furrowed her eyebrows.
That’s right. The last ten rooms have been taken by them.
The innkeeper pointed at Sima You Yang and the others, who had not yet gone upstairs.
Why don’t you check out other inns?
We have already gone through all the inns here. They’re all fully booked and this is the last one.
The lady in red said,
Think of a way to produce two rooms for us.
Oh my, guest, I’m very sorry, but we really have no rooms!
The innkeeper said with difficulty,
Why don’t you go and ask them to see if they’ll give you a room?
What? You want us to ask? Do you know who we are? We are…
Red Cloud.
The lady in white lightly chided, interrupting whatever the other lady was about to say.
Sister disciple.
Red Cloud was shouted at by the lady in red and came to her senses. She remembered that they had initially promised their master that they would not randomly reveal their identities to pressure others.
The lady in white came in front of the Sima Clan and smiled lightly, saying,
Everyone, you saw the situation happening just now. Could you all give us a room? We want to stay for a night, and will return the room to you tomorrow.
Sima You Yue was still on the stairs. She had heard the commotion downstairs and did not continue walking up. When she heard what the lady in white said, she said,
You Yang, they’re always wandering around outside, you should get everyone to release one room for them.
Sima You Yang was a bit surprised as he didn’t expect that Sima You Yue would talk about this. However, he still nodded, saying,
We’re staying only for a night as well, you all just stay together and release one room.
Okay.
The people whom he pointed at, handed their key over to the lady in white.
She smiled at him, then lifted her head and looked at Sima You Yue, saying,
Many thanks.
Sima You Yue nodded her head at her, then turned around and went upstairs.
A short while later, Sima You Yang, Sima You Lin and the others came to visit her. As they were talking, they asked her why she would let the two ladies have a room.
Sima You Yang lay on the bed and said,
Those two ladies are Alchemists.
Alchemists?
Mm.
Sima You Yue nodded, saying,
furthermore, that lady in white’s rank is not low at all. I smelled a light whiff of medicinal fragrance. You’ll only get it when you spend a long time in an area filled with pill ingredients.
You could even smell it while standing so far away, do you have a dog’s nose?
Sima You Yang teased.
Sima You Yue rolled her eyes, saying,
When that one called Red Cloud wanted to reveal her identity, she stopped because she was chided by the lady in white. I feel that those two people should be people of quite high status. In any case, this isn’t a big deal. It can be considered an act of kindness by giving them a room.
Sima You Yang pursed his lips, saying,
I think that you just couldn’t bear to leave those beautiful ladies be.
Beautiful ladies are good, they’re pleasing to the eyes, understand? They’re much better than a person made of dirt like you.
Sima You Yue said.
How am I made of dirt?
An ancient proverb says that women are made of water, while men are made of dirt. If you aren’t made of dirt, then what are you.
There’s a saying like this?
Sima You Yang was stunned.
Of course.
Then aren’t you also made of dirt.
I’m not going to bicker about this with you.
Sima You Yue said,
You Lin, do we have any place to stay when we reach Saint City? We won’t end up like them, who just go there and find out there’s nowhere to stay, right?
Don’t worry about this. I have my own house in Saint City.
Sima You Lin said.
That’s good.
Sima You Yue said. Then, she started to chase them out,
I want to rest, you should all head back.
Okay.
Once they had left, Sima You Ran came to her bedside. Seeing that Sima You Yue had already opened her mouth, wanting to speak, heh said,
Fifth Bro, when will you be able to regain your identity? Pretending to be a boy forever isn’t a feasible solution.
I don’t know why my father would tell Grandfather to disguise me as a boy. However, since he said so, it must be due to a big reason. Maybe it has something to do with the clan. Who knows, maybe it will be fine once I find my father.
Sima You Yue said.
That will take a few more years, then.
Sima You Ran sighed, saying,
Some women your age would have already become mothers…
Cough cough, third bro, why would you talk about this? You’re talking about some random average women okay. Twenty over years old is considered young for a Spirit Master. Don’t talk about me as if I’m an old spinster.
Sima You Yue quickly interrupted whatever he was saying. This kind of conversation didn’t suit her at all.
