Sima You Yue followed Yun Feng to the main room in the building. As they entered, Guo Si Wu and Guo Pei Pei were unexpectedly there, along with several others whom she did not recognise. Yun Jin Wei sat at the Head seat, and the Guo and Yun family members moved to sit on either side of the Head seat. When it came to her, she was surprised to be lead to the seat right next to the Head seat, and everyone who was seating stood up to receive her as she made her way to the seat. Sima You Yue pursed her lips, boy was it uncomfortable receiving this much attention. But when she thought about her position as the Young Valley Master, she realised that this was not unwarranted. Is this what they meant by riding on the coattails of others?
As she sat on the seat, she said,
Please sit, everyone. You are all my elders, please do not stand on formality.
Thank You, Young Valley Master.
The crowd thanked her and proceeded to sit.
Young Valley Master, we are planning to discuss how to deal with the Zhan family and the Sage Pavilion, and we thought that we should invite you to join us.
Yun Jin Wei said.
No wonder.
Sima You Yue said in her heart and smiled, saying,
I’m not exactly clear on what’s going on with the Zhan family and the Sage Pavilion, you should discuss amongst yourselves, and I’ll listen.
Alright.
The Guo and Yun family members were glad that she was distancing herself from the discussion, as she was definitely unsure of the entire context, and if she were to propose an idea that was not suitable for the circumstance, it might bring them more trouble. Anyway, they had invited her primarily to let her understand their plans. To help her to gain a better understanding of the situation, Yun Jin Wei explained roughly explained the Zhan family to her, telling her how many people there were in their family, and about their assets and so on.
As Sima You Yue listened, a thought popped into her head – that if the Sima Family had moved to the Primordial lands, they would be able to live well. Previously she had thought about going up on her own and then bringing them along afterwards, but after she had become more familiar with the goings-on in the Primordial Lands, she realised that going up without sufficient power or strength would be a very foolish thing to do. However, she could not stop worrying about how the Yi Lin Continent might suddenly go into disarray. If they continued to stay there and if anything unfortunate should happen to them, she would regret it to the point of death. If she considered this all carefully, moving them here would be the best option. They would able to lend strength to the Guo and Yun family, and the Sima family would also be able to grow in their might. The environment for training her is much better than training at the Yi Lin Continent.
As she thought about these things, she started to make plans for the Sima family. First, she would need to firm up these plans, and then she would have to think of a way to bring them over.
Lord Yun, after we destroy the Zhan family, what should we do with the bounty?
She asked.
Does Young Valley Master have any thoughts?
Yun Jin Wei asked.
Let’s split it according to each family’s level of contribution.
Sima You Yue suggested.
However, I would like four parts of the bounty, and if there’s a big difference in how much we get, I’ll reimburse that amount.
Yun Jin Wei and Guo Si Wu were surprised, since he had said that he was not that interested previously. Why would a request like this suddenly be made?
How come Young Valley Master is interested in such a thing?
One of the Yun family elders asked.
I thinking that if I can find a way between the Restless Continent and the Yi Lin Continent, then I would like to bring my family here.
Sima You Yue had not originally planned to talk about this issue, but if she really desired to shift the Sima family here, then she would not be able to do it without the help of the two families, which is why she had to bring it up now.
Young Valley Master would like to bring your entire clan here?
Guo Si Wu asked.
Yes.
Sima You Yue nodded,
I had not known previously, but now that I know that the Yi Lin Continent is not good for living, I must think of a way to let my Grandfather live comfortably.
If that’s the case, then the Guo family will relinquish our rights to the reward, and will give it up to Young Valley Master.
Guo Si Wu said.
The Yun family will also give it up.
Yun Jin Wei agreed. Although the Zhan family had a lot of assets, compared to being on good terms with the Sima Family, the latter seemed to be more attractive a reward. Since the Guo and Yun family both had family members in the Divine Devil Valley, they must stay on good terms with Sima You Yue.
Sima You Yue tapped the table with her fingertips, saying,
That’s not necessary. My family clan is not that big – even if we have that much assets, we will not be able to utilise them all. I will choose some, and the rest will belong to you. Other than that, I will still reimburse you sufficiently for what is lacking.
Although the Yun and Guo family did not require a reimbursement from Sima You Yue, and did not plan on receiving one, they knew that because she was from the Yi Lin Continent and that that place did not have many good resources, they thought that she would have nothing great to offer anyway. Especially because the Zhan family had generations’ worth of treasures, what they would be relenting to her would not be easily replaced by ordinary things. But when Sima You Yue brought out her items and heard her say her name, the Guo and Yun family became breathless, as though they had forgotten about their surroundings, their eyes transfixed on what was in her hands.
Young Valley Master, is this really a Divinity Pill?
The Yun family elder gulped nervously, his gaze never leaving the pill bottle.
That’s right.
Sima You Yue poured out the two pills, passing one to Yun Jin Wei and another to Guo Si Wu.
I made these two days ago, and it has allowed my Divine Beast to become a Sacred Beast, so you can be rest assured with regard to its effectiveness.
Aren’t Divinity Pills extremely hard to make?
Guo Pei Pei asked,
Even a Seventh of Eighth grade Alchemist might not be successful in making the pills, and the ingredients needed must be greatly scrutinised. Divinity Pills are of such great value!
Sima You Yue smiled, saying,
You guys must have people who have reached the apex of their rank of Spirit Paragon and yet have not promoted, right? This can help boost them to the Divine Rank.
Is this Divinity Pill really for us?
One of the elders cautiously picked up the pill.
For sure.
Sima You Yue took out the other two pill vials, saying,
There are nine pills in each vial, and adding the one in your hands, that’s ten pills. These can help you in destroying the trash with the Zhan family name, right?
Definitely, definitely. This is much better than all those other assets!
Guo Si Wu said. Ten pills! When just two pills would be precious enough! Because once they had crossed over to the Divine rank, it would leave a great impact on the entire family, and those assets would barely be of equal value to that! If they had ten more Divine ranking family members, their entire families would have a raise in their social standing! So this reimbursement was definitely more than worth it.
Sima You Yue saw their excited looks and said,
I will first give each family five of the Divinity Pills, if I can find a way to get back home and come back, and bring my entire family here, I will give you the other promised five pills. If I don’t succeed, then the Zhan family’s assets would be worthless to me, and I will give up my portion. Is that okay?
Don’t worry, Young Valley Master. We will help you to find a way.
Yun Jin Wei said assuredly. Compared to the assets of the Zhan family, they wanted the Divinity Pills even more, and so they would definitely find a way to help Sima You Yue.
Looking at how they were behaving, Sima You Yue smiled. Previously when they said that they would help her, it was merely for her sake. Now, they were doing it for their own sakes, and would definitely be more diligent in doing so.
Alright, so let’s now discuss how exactly the plan to get rid of the Zhan family…
