Chapter 1880: Worry

Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

The fact that news was spreading about her arrival in the ghost realm was not something she didn’t expect. Initially, when she was getting things done in Vast City, although she was secretive, she was unable to keep herself from suspicion completely. Since Di Si Kong was suspecting her, it was only natural that others would as well.

Right now, what she was most concerned about was how the news had spread here. Did those outside know that she was Sima You Yue or not?

If they did know that Sima You Yue was Murong Xi would that bring trouble to Hui?

“Are you worried for your foster father?” Wu Lingyu asked.

“Yeah, if they know that I am Murong Xi, and know that Murong Hui has protected me for so many years, I’m afraid of dragging him down with me. That year, I caused such a big incident and all the Ghost Clansmen that crossed over were completely wiped out. At that time, my cousins and the others sent their men over to tell me about the grudge that the Ghost Clan were holding against me. Black Shadow had also said that the incident had caused a big commotion back in the ghost realm. Now that they know I’m here, it’s fine if they came to look for me. I’m just afraid that they will look for my foster father.” Sima You Yue was rather worried.

“Isn’t this simple? Don’t you have Mi Er? Wouldn’t this situation be solved as long as you and Murong Xi appear at the same time?”

“But they’ve seen Blacky and Onyx. When the time comes, I’ll be exposed the moment they see Onyx with me.” Sima You Yue sighed, “It’s not like I can keep Blacky and Onyx from appearing forever, right?”

“Why don’t we make your foster father so strong that others will not dare to provoke him? Even if they know that he has helped you before, they will not dare to do anything against him.”

Sima You Yue sighed, “It seems like that’s the only solution. However, this is still an unknown. We still have to figure out the problem right in front of us.”

“Young Miss, why don’t you let us kill the people who are spreading the news. As long as the news does not spread, others will not know that it is you.” Black Shadow suggested.

“Since you will have to kill the entire power, it will be useless.” Sima You Yue rejected their idea, “Others were the ones who spread the news. Since others were the ones who started spreading it, they will naturally spread it to others as well. However, we have no way of ascertaining right now who the ones who spread it are. It wouldn’t be of any use to kill just one or two of them.”

“Then what do we do? Are we supposed to just let them spread the news?”

“We’ll deal with things as they come. If anyone so blind really dares to come, we’ll naturally make them unable to return!” Sima You Yue huffed coldly.

They wanted to take her life? They had to see whether or not they had the ability to in the first place!

The night passed peacefully, and they checked out of the room on the morning of the second day. Before they left, they asked the steward of the inn for the direction of the closest city with a teleportation array.

“This place is rather remote.” The steward of the inn said, “If you wish to use a teleportation array, the closest one to this city is more than half a month’s journey. It would be better if you took flying beasts. Also the journey is quite dangerous. If you use our flying beasts, you will be able to avoid the danger.”

“Then does this place have any flying beasts for hire?” Sima You Yue asked.

“We don’t have any here, but we have many at our eastern city gate.” The steward said.

“I got it. Thanks, steward.” Sima You Yue replied. After returning her keys, she retrieved her deposit and left.

They walked to the eastern part of the city and were quickly reaching the city gate when they saw a flying beast rental shop.

“Young Miss, do you wish to rent them?” Black Shadow asked. It was obvious that those people had intentionally pointed them here. If they wanted to rent their flying spirit beasts, the journey would definitely be dangerous.

Sima You Yue smiled, “I’m renting them, how else would I allow those people to keep track of my location?”

They came to the shop and said that they wanted to go to Great Bear City. The shopkeeper eagerly recommended a few flying beasts to them. Sima You Yue selected the cheapest flying beast and then took it out of the city.

“Steward, have these people realised it? Otherwise, why would they select the cheapest one? These types of flying beasts take double the time to arrive at Great Bear City as compared to the others!” The shopkeeper voiced his suspicions.

If someone wanted to kill them, wouldn’t it be more dangerous to stay on the road longer?

“You’re thinking too much. If they knew that people wanted to kill them, they would have chosen the best flying beasts to shorten their travelling time.” The steward revealed a sinister smile. His most treasured son had been killed in Fair Eastern City, and knowing now that he had the opportunity to take revenge, he could not wait to be the one to kill her personally.

“Go, send the news.” He instructed the shopkeeper before turning around and heading into the inner courtyard. However, once the shopkeeper had sent out the word and entered, he did not see a trace of him.

This flying spirit beast was not just ordinarily slow. After flying for an entire day, she had not gotten very far at all. They were so bored inside the beast carriage that they just took out a set of handmade mahjong tiles and started playing. By the time night fell, the flying beast naturally found a place to stop at. Its meaning was clear, it wanted to rest.

“This flying beast is really gutsy! It actually stopped without obtaining our consent.” Sima You Yue opened the door of the carriage. In front of her was a lush forest and she clicked her tongue, “It really is the perfect place for an ambush.”

Huan and the others got off the beast carriage as well. When they heard what she said, they lowered their heads and agreed, “This really is a great place for an ambush!”

“This isn’t too far from where we came from. Will those people take action?” Black Shadow’s way of thinking was rather simple. Since they wanted to avoid arousing suspicion, they would naturally attack them when they were further away, right.

“He didn’t say that it was them. It’s others who want to kill me. There’s no eyewitness anyway.” Sima You Yue said, “Since they’ve chosen this place for us, there’s no need to waste their good intentions. Let’s set up camp here!”

The three men set up the tents while she took charge of the cooking. They quickly sat around the fire and ate.

They were done eating but those people had not yet arrived. Black Shadow was just about to say that those people were probably not coming when there was finally some movement.

“I really didn’t think that we would meet so quickly.” Sima You Yue tossed a cleanly eaten chicken bone onto the table and wiped her mouth with her hand before saying lightly.

Those who came did not expect that Sima You Yue would discover them so easily. Although they were surprised, they still appeared from the portal. It was precisely the steward of the flying beast rental shop.

The steward saw that there was no change in her expression as he huffed coldly, “You’re not surprised at all.”

“What is there to be surprised about? When you were watching us in the day, although you restrained yourself, your eyes still betrayed you. I just didn’t think that you wouldn’t hesitate at all and would come so quickly.” Sima You Yue was calm in the face of his murderous intent. She completely disdained him and his group.

“You killed my son, I can’t wait to kill you. I’m going to kill you now to avenge him!”
