Everyone was extremely shocked to see Sima You Yue in this state. Could it be that her body has some irreversible damage, and that she will not be able to train anymore? Yet again, it didn’t seem to be the case. Even if she wasn’t able to train again, she wouldn’t be crying like she did now, but she would be thinking of a way to overcome the problem.
Sima You Yue looked up at them, and then turned her gaze to look at Wu Lingyu. He had no idea why she was being this way either, but understood the look in her eyes. He created a portal and carried her, careful to not let the piece of clothing fall off, and then entered the portal and disappeared.
Where is he bringing You Yue to?
It was only when the portal closed did the Sima family members regain their senses.
What exactly happened to You Yue?
No matter what they tried to guess, they were never able to pinpoint the right reason.
You Lin, where did that punk bring You Yue to?
Sima You Yang asked.
Sima You Lin looked at him and said,
How would I know? But this is what You Yue wants. I think she wants to be alone, that’s why Wu Lingyu brought her away. Maybe after a few days, she will be back.
Wei Zi Qi and the rest looked at Bei Gong Tang. She was usually very close to Sima You Yue, and might know what was going on.
Bei Gong Tang shook her head, saying,
I think she must have recalled something. Little Roar said that he had formed a contract with her in her previous life, but You Yue had no memory of such a thing. She had ever mentioned that she had lost quite a bit of her memories, and so maybe she has suddenly recalled the things of the past.
If it really is like that… What could she have gone through that would cause her to react this way?
Fatty Qu sighed. Even Bei Gong Tang could not guess this one.
Let’s return to the family clan first.
Sima You Lin said.
If she returns, she would probably go straight there. It will be pointless for us to wait here.
Third Brother?
Sima You Le looked at Sima You Ran. He had not spoken since he had entered.
Let’s go. Fifth Brother will be fine.
Sima You Ran said.
I hope she comes back soon.
Sima You Le sighed. He decided to ask Grandfather, in case he might know something.
Sima You Yue leaned into Wu Lingyu’s embrace, not knowing where he had brought her. With everyone’s eyes on her, at that moment she could only think of escaping that place. She didn’t know why she would choose to let Wu Lingyu bring her away. Maybe it was because he could make space portals.
After some time, Wu Lingyu’s voice emerged from above her head,
Do you want to put yourself together?
She looked up and saw that she was in an unfamiliar place. The view was beautiful, though.
Where are we?
she asked, leaning into him.
My little world.
Wu Lingyu said.
You can vent to your heart’s content here. No other person will see it.
And you’re not another person?
She wiped her tears, and set herself down. Holding on to her clothes, she took a look around the place. An endless mountain range with flora and fauna, and a thick spiritual qi in the air. It was a rather pleasant place.
How big is this place?
As she focused on the little world, the pain in her heart preoccupied less of her mind.
Not that big.
Wu Lingyu replied. Seeing that she was much better, he was glad that he had brought her here.
Sima You Yue knew that this little world was rather similar to her spirit pagoda. One of the differences was that this little world did not change at the will of the owner like the spirit pagoda could, and was not within one’s control. So it wasn’t as great as a spirit pagoda. This was still a place that belonged to him, alone, and he could do as he liked in this place.
Weren’t you at the Primordial Lands? Why did you come?
Wu Lingyu took out the jade stone that he had shown her right before he left, and the entire stone had turned red.
You had gone through a large amount of pain, and was suffering, so this jade turned blood red.
He explained.
She hadn’t known it, but when he saw the changes in the jade stone, he was extremely flustered and was worried that something terrible might have happened to her. Thus, he had dropped everything and rushed over to her. The moment he witnessed the scene as she cried, he his heart felt a great amount of heartache. He wanted to wipe away her tears and bring comfort to her weary heart. As he looked at her pleading gaze, he knew intuitively that she wanted him to take her away. He could feel the trust that she had in him, and that made him extremely pleased. He thought hard about how to shift her attention away from her pain, and so he decided to bring her to this place.
As Sima You Yue recalled her memories from the past, she thought also about this important
She had never imagined that he would rush over to be by her side in the fluctuations of her state of mind, or that he would bring her to this place. When they had met in her previous life, she would have never thought that he would be such a person.
She shut her eyes, trying to gain control over her emotions and said,
I would like to have a bath.
Wu Lingyu stretched out and held her, and as he willed, they appeared before a house. Sima You Yue was surprised and blurted out,
You’ve refined the entire place?
It was only by refining the entire little world that he could gain control over it. She immediately regretted what she had said – how could someone from below know about refining little worlds?
Wu Lingyu raised an eyebrow, but said nothing. He pointed towards a little room and said,
There’s the washroom.
Sima You Yue pushed opened the door and entered it. Before she closed the door she said,
If I find out that you’re using this little world to peek, I will destroy you right here.
With that, she shut the door with a bang.
Wu Lingyu rubbed his nose. Was he such a wretched man? If he was going to look, he was going to do it openly, why would he sneak around?
Sima You Yue saw that this place had a hot spring, which was about the same size as her own. She threw the garment that she was wearing aside. Who did it belong to anyway? It was so long and huge.
Have I been reborn?
She looked at the dead flesh that was on her body. As she rubbed on it, it fell apart, revealing a new body under it. The burnt skin looked absolutely revolting. With her entire body covered under dead flesh and skin, how could Wu Lingyu just carry her without feeling or showing any sign of disgust?
She saw her own reflection as she entered the water, causing the tears that she was holding back to flow freely out of her eyes, blurring her vision.
Ximen You Yue… Ximen You Yue… Father, Mother, Younger Brother… How could I have forgotten all of you? How could I have continued to forget all this time? I’m so sorry… I’m so sorry…
She called out Little Roar, and seeing his reddened eyes, she embraced him.
I’m so sorry, Little Roar… I’m sorry that I had forgotten you…
He was her contracted spirit beast! Because of the connection, he had continued to live. But when he had recovered, he had to face a master who could not recognise him. And because she had no recollection of all the past events, or the vengeance against the attackers, he could not tell her of the fact that he had watched her family die one by one, and had to carry this burden on his own.
Master, you remember it all.
Little Roar shed tears as well. He felt the pain that she was feeling, and ached in his heart for her.
I remember everything… I know everything now. It was because of me… Because of me…
Sima You Yue stroked Little Roar as she embraced him, crying out loud in anguish.
Wu Lingyu stood at the door, listening to the cries coming from inside. He frowned and sighed, upset. He then walked away.
