Little Lan is a member of our Yin clan. Now that she has already left the Bei Gong clan, how could she not return to the Yin clan?
A middle aged lady dressed in a crimson long skirt walked over, held on to Yin Lan’s hand and said,
You’re already at the entrance. How could you not come home? Your father’s youngest brother’s wife has already gotten someone to tidy up the house you used to live in. In the future, you can continue to live in that same courtyard.


Is this cousin Tang?
A lady walked over and held on to Bei Gong Tang’s hand with a smile, saying,
I am your elder cousin, Fei Fei. Come, I’ll take you to visit the house that aunty used to live in.

As she spoke, she even pointed to Yin Xi.
What a joke. Yin Lan and the others were treasures right now. If the cut off ties with the Yin Clan, how would they be able to maintain a relationship with the falcon clan?
There was also the master of the King of the Rocs who was her good friend. Without her, these people would definitely not care about the Yin clan.


For the sake of the family’s interest, Yin Lan could not leave the clan!
It was impossible that Bei Gong Tang and the others would be unable to see through their thoughts. However, it was a good thing that there were really those who genuinely wished for the happiness of Bei Gong Tang and her family. As such, they did not nitpick on these things.
The most important thing was that Yin Lan did not bother about it and was willing to return. As for Bei Gong Tang, she merely wanted to pander to her mother’s wishes.
Sima You Yue and the others were invited into the residence as honored guests, and even arranged a courtyard all to themselves to rest in. This was top level treatment.
Bei Gong Tang had yet to return. After everyone had rested for a while, You Yue left the Yin clan by herself.
She went to the inn that they were at last night. However, she had already received news that Ximen Feng had already settled the bill and left. She left the inn dejectedly and walked absentmindedly on the street.
He had clearly recognised her, so why did he still leave? He had even left that very night. She feared that he may have settled his bill and left the moment she went away.
It was fine if he didn’t recognise her, but why did he still have to avoid her?

Dear Feng, could it be that you plan not to acknowledge me your entire life?
She felt extremely bitter, and had no idea where she should go to look for him.
Suddenly, someone pulled on her arm, forcing her to stop.



If you continue walking, you’ll hit the tree again.
Wu Lingyu’s voice was heard from behind her.
Sima You Yue turned around and saw Wu Lingyu. This time, he had no smirk on. He just looked really worried.

Senior Brother, what are you doing here?


I saw you come outside, so I left as well.
Wu Lingyu replied,
Who would have expected you to let your mind wander ever since you left the inn. You almost hit that tree again.

It was only now that Sima You Yue realised she was only ten centimetres away from hitting the big tree after stepping off the road.

Thank you, Senior Brother.


What’s going on with you? I never noticed you to be an absent minded one.
Wu Lingyu said.

It’s nothing.
She shook her head, but she kept thinking of the time Ximen Feng had strangled her last night.
Not right!
It was only now that she realised that something was off last night. Ximen Feng didn’t use to be so powerful. Based on his aura last night, he was at least of the Monarch rank. However, he had just advanced to the Divine Overlord rank when she died. How could he have progressed so much in the ten plus years that she had been gone?


His strength was too strange! Also, the ice cold temperature of his body was not the normal temperature of a person. This showed that his body was not normal anymore.

Damn it, how could I have failed to realise this yesterday!
Sima You Yue cursed herself.
They had heard of many ways in which one could forcibly raise their strength, and those methods were extremely harmful to their bodies! Furthermore, Ximen Feng had gotten powerful so suddenly. If he had done it through normal cultivation, then that was fine. However, if he didn’t, that would spell trouble.
However, with the temperature of his ice cold hands, she had no way to convince herself that he had grown in strength through means of normal cultivation.
She had to look for him. If anything happened to him, there was no way that she could deal with losing him a second time.
Furthermore, he refused to acknowledge her. This could possibly be a reason why.
Wu Lingyu noticed that Sima You Yue’s expression turned from disappointment to anxiousness and asked,
What’s going on?


Head back and send a message to Bei Gong and the others that I have some things to settle. If I’m not back in time, tell them to head to the auction and we’ll meet there.
She said as she ran away.

Wait, I’ll come with you.
Wu Lingyu said as he held on to her.

No need… alright. Come with me.
Sima You Yue had initially wanted to keep Wu Lingyu out of the know about herself. However, since Mo Sha already knew it, he would find out once they fused together. Also, she wasn’t familiar with the outer regions, so it would be better to have someone by her side.


As she walked, she took out her mother-son stone and contacted Sima Lie. When they found out that she was leaving, everyone was shocked and wanted to follow her as well.

You guys should stay in the Yin Clan.
Sima You Yue rejected them outright,
Bei Gong just went back to her clan and needs you guys by her side to support her. If I’m not back by the time the auction starts, we’ll meet up at Heavenly Sect. Senior is with me, so there’s no need to worry for me. That’s all, I’m hanging up.

After speaking, she hung up the call and they had already walked to the inn. She entered the door with Wu Lingyu.
When the innkeeper saw that Sima You Yue had come back after walking away, he didn’t wait for her to speak before saying,
Didn’t I already tell you earlier? The masked person had already paid for his room and left before the sun even rose.

Sima You Yue immediately put a middle ranked crystal on the table,
I want to know where he went after leaving this place?

The innkeeper saw the middle ranked crystal, thought for a bit and said,
I really don’t know.

The waiter happened to walk past them and said,
I was around at that time. I seem to have heard him telling the lady who was with him that they would go to Shandong City, nearby.


Are you sure?
Sima You Yue asked.

At that time, the two of them had already settled the bill and were quite far away from the door so I didn’t hear it that clearly either.
The waiter replied.

Thank you.
Sima You Yue handed the middle ranked crystal to the waiter before leaving.


When the waiter saw the middle ranked crystal, he had yet to react. When he saw Sima You Yue head out to look for him, he said,
Oh right, I heard that they were not going to use the teleportation array, but were going to take the flying beasts.

She was shocked. That’s right, Dear Feng was the same as she was. They would get giddy from teleportation arrays. If it wasn’t too far, she wouldn’t take teleportation arrays either.

Which direction is Shandong City in?


Northwest. It isn’t far, it should take ten days by flying beasts.
The waiter replied.

Thanks.

Sima You Yue left the city with Wu LIngyu, then headed towards the northwest direction. They initially thought that Ximen Feng had only left half a day earlier than they did, and they would be able to catch up fast. Furthermore, the falcons were top amongst the rocs for their speed. However, they hadn’t seen them after seven to eight days. This caused her to question whether or not she had missed them.
Finally, when they reached Shandong City after a short while, Sima You Yue finally caught up to them. It was only because they were fighting with someone else, and were battling it out at the valley.
Seeing that the other party had a few tens of people, the goshawks could not target them as they were too big. Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu got off at an area slightly farther away, then got Wu Lingyu to fly her closer as they hid in a secret place to observe the situation.
