She was used to seeing the blue sky and white clothes every day, and it made her a little gloomy when she couldn’t see the blue sky and white clouds for a long time.
Adding on the time she spent below, it had been close to a year, a year in which she had not been able to see the sky. Now that she was seeing it again, she felt a little emotional.
She sat on the back of an egret, who took her to the top of the canyon. She heard a voice calling her name even before she reached the top.

Grandpa! Aunty Yu, Aunty Lan, what are you all doing here?
She climbed off the back of the egret as Sima Lie and the others surrounded her.

We knew that you had been kidnapped to the devil realm, so were extremely worried for you. We came here with Dear Feng. However, we were not strong enough so we couldn’t head down. We could only wait here for you.
Sima Lie took a look at Sima You Yue and only relaxed when he saw that she had come back in one piece.


Although he had her life jade and knew that she was not in any danger, he was still worried that she would suffer and get hurt there. He finally let go of his worries when he saw that she was doing rather well.

It’s good that you’re back.
Yin Lan said from the side,
If you came back battered and broken, those kids would be heartbroken.


Are you all fine?
Sima You Yue could imagine how they would react when they heard that she had been kidnapped and taken to the devil realm

Not bad. We panicked in the beginning, and were worried that your life was in danger. However, we calmed down when we heard that you were fine.
Sang Mu Yu said,
They initially wanted to come as well, but could not leave the sect, so could only wait for you in there.


Then we should head back earlier.
Sima You Yue said. She turned to look at Feng Zhi Xing,
Master…


It’s been a long time since you came out. You should go back. Once I’ve settled things here, I will head to the sect and look for you.
Feng Zhi Xing said.

Alright. Master, if you don’t come, I’ll come look for you.
Sima You Yue said,
I know how to look for you now.

Old Man Devil was standing around and pinched Wu Lingyu’s sleeve unhappily, saying,
You Yue is too biased. I’m her master too, why don’t I see her so unwilling to leave me?

Wu Lingyu snatched his sleeve and rolled his eyes.
Sima You Yue turned back to the people who came to save her, and expressed her gratitude. Although they did not really do anything, she was still touched at their gesture.


Once the others had left, she walked over to Old Man Devil and took out an interspatial ring, saying,
Master, I know you keep thinking about these.

When Old Man Devil saw what was inside the ring, his expression lit up and started beaming. He hurriedly kept that thing away, patting Sima You Yue on the shoulder, saying,
My good disciple. I know you always respect your master.


As long as it makes Master happy.
Sima You Yue said with a smile. She also gagged inwardly. His dark and gloomy expression clearly showed that he felt she neglected him, okay.
Right, Master. Do you know a woman called Feng Ru Yan?

Old Man Devil’s hand trembled as he cried,
Who?


Feng Ru Yan. I heard her describe you, so it sounded like you might know her.
Sima You Yue said.

How did you get to know her?
Old Man Devil cried out agitatedly,
Do you know where she is right now?


No clue, she left already.
Sima You Yue said,
Master, do you know her?


I do, I do.
Old Man Devil muttered,
Who would have thought I would still be able to hear news of her. She must be as beautiful as she was back then.

Sima You Yue watched him mutter to himself and stretched forth a hand to wave it in front of him, saying,
Master, is she your eye candy?

Old Man Devil immediately slapped her hand away, saying,
What nonsense are you spouting? She was just a kid when I met her that year!




That was a few hundred years ago, but you still remember her, okay?
Sima You Yue teased.

How could I forget her? A girl like that is hard to forget.
Old Man Devil said,
Tell me, how do you know of her? Did you meet her?

Sima You Yue told her about how she had treated Feng Ru Yan, and he started pondering deeply when he heard this.

So you’re saying that you don’t know where she is right now. It seems I have to look for Jun Lan to ask. That kid seems to have gone to the central area.
Old Man Devil said,
Alright, you should head back to your sect quickly. Remember to help me send my regards to that old coot.

After speaking, he opened a portal through space and stepped in. Once the space portal closed, she finally recalled that she didn’t ask who Feng Ru Yan was.

Forget it. Aunty Feng didn’t need me to know back then, so it’s fine if I didn’t know now. I’ll know when the time comes.
Sima You Yue sighed, then turned to Sima Lie, saying,
Let’s head back as well.

They went to a city nearby, taking the teleportation array back to the central area. This time, she actually didn’t feel giddy after it. However, Ximen Feng was still unwell after.
After reaching home, Bei Gong Tang and the others happened to be there. When they saw that she had returned, they were beyond themselves in excitement.

I just knew you would be okay!
Fatty Qu wanted to wrap her in a bear hug. However, something felt wrong as he held her. When he lifted his head, he saw Wu Lingyu’s icy expression.

Fatty, I didn’t think you would greet me so warmly.



Fatty Qu saw Sima You Yue standing at the side smirking, and figured that Wu Lingyu must have pushed her aside and came over himself, as he slowly released him.

Fifth Bro.
Sima You Yue and the others walked over and hugged her,
It’s good that you’re back.

Sima You Yue patted their backs, saying,
Sorry for worrying you.


It’s not a big deal for us to worry, as long as you’re okay.
Sima You Le replied,
When we heard that you and your senior were taken to the devil realm, we were crazy with worry. We even thought that it was over. It’s a good thing we remembered your life jade and saw that it was perfectly fine, so we knew that you were fine. Otherwise, I think everyone would have gone crazy.

Wu Lingyu never thought that, after protecting her from Fatty Qu, he would have had to protect her from her brothers. Seeing them hugging for such a long time really made him feel like pulling them away.

Alright, they’ve just come back so we should let You Yue rest for a while.
Bei Gong Tang said.

Right right right, look how excited we are.
Sima You Ming smiled,
You should head back first.


Oh yes, what are you all doing at home today?
Everyone walked over to the living room as Sima You Yue asked after noticing that they were all around.

The sect is currently organising a competition, so there haven’t been classes lately. We’re all preparing on our own.
Wei Zi Qi explained.

This competition is the one where everyone prepares to enter the inner sect to try and ascertain their current standard.
Ouyang Fei said.



The competition starts tomorrow. Who knows, you might be able to register if you look for the vice principal.
Fatty Qu said.
Sima You Yue shook her head, saying,
I just got back and have many things I want to do. I won’t be participating in the competition, but I will definitely go and cheer for you guys when it’s your turn!
