Chapter 387: Trapping the Nalan clan

Translator: Misty Cloud Translations  Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

When they heard what Sima You Lin said, everyone paid attention to their auras and realised that everyone had advanced to the ranks of spirit paragon!

“You guys-”

Everyone was stunned. They had merely left for over a year, but had actually advanced from Spirit Overlords and Saints to Spirit Spirit Paragons!

What in the world happened when they left?!

Was it really that easy to cultivate in the world outside?

“We obtained many fortuitous encounters, so we managed to advanced relatively quicker.” Sima You Lin explained.

“Grandfather.” Sima You Ming and the others smiled as they walked over to Sima Lie.

Sima Lie saw that his own grandchildren had ranks that exceeded his own, and his heart was leaping with joy. He was so proud that he was speechless.

These few years, he had grown in strength with Sima You Yue’s help. However, he had not managed to break through to Spirit Paragon.

“Clan Leader, I heard you all talking about me just now?” Sima You Yue did not forget that they had talked about how good it would have been if she were here.

“That’s right.” Sima Tai said, “Look at the sea, you guys.”

Right now, they were in a city on the cliff by the cliff off the coast. One of the walls of the city were on the coast and the waves that would crash onto shore would occasionally splash below the feet of the wall.

Sima You Yue and the others turned towards the ocean and realised that it was covered with sea beasts. At a glance, the blue sea had turned black.

Furthermore, it was not just on the side of the wall. The entire coastline was filled!

“Why are there so many poisonous sea beast?!” Sima You Yue and the others were surprised as well. They never thought that the situation would be so serious.

“However, the sea beasts are only able to swim right? We should be fine if we do not go into to the waters?” Fatty Qu asked.

“However, reality isn’t the case.” Sima Lin said.

“You don’t mean they can fly?”

Fatty Qu had originally just wanted to jest, but he didn’t think that everyone would nod instead.

“Damn, they really can fly?”

“Mm.” Sima Tai nodded, “We don’t know why, but those divine beasts can all fly. We saw some faintly discernible black lines on their bodies. We’re guessing that must be the reason.”

“Then have you found out what those black lines that appeared are?” Sima You Yang asked.

“Nope.”

“We went to try and find out why those sea beasts would rampage, but we did not manage to find out anything. The people that we sent out had disappeared in less than two days.”

“We guessed that they had probably been killed, so thought that if you were around, you would have a sacred beast who would be able to find out the reason why.”

“If we don’t manage to find out why, who knows how long this chaotic situation will go on for.”

When Sima You Yue heard them speak, her eyebrows furrowed together. She subconsciously thought it might be related to Forgotten Worry Island.

At this moment, a guard rushed over and came to the wall. He looked left and right, and saw Sima Tai and the others, then rushed over.

“Clan Leader, the Sang clan has sent men over. The plan this time has failed again. However, what was different this time was that those sea beasts threw the bodies back.” The guard reported with a cupped fist.

“Cruel!” An elder clenched his fist, infuriated till his face turned red.

“That person also said that the other three clans plan to gather the brains of all the powers to discuss the next step.” That guard continued to explain, “Also, the Sang clan leader has sent a letter.”

“Give it to me.” Sima Tai said.

The guard took out the letter and handed it to Sima Tai, who quickly glanced through it after opening it.

“Clan Leader, what do the rumors say?” Great Elder asked.

“It notes the place and time of the meeting this time.” Sima Tai said, “It even says that the Nalan Clan was the first one to raise this up. We’re guessing that the Nalan clan has the greatest losses and wants something to be done.”

“The Nalan clan had the greatest losses? Did many of their people die?” Sima You Yue asked.

“That’s right.” Sima Tai smiled, telling of his joy at their misfortune, “At that time, the four great clans took along the other clans, while the Li clan was in charge of the pills. I told them of four locations, then casually mentioned the situation at the ocean. After that, I spoke of one of the situations more lightly than the others, so the Nalan Clan’s elder immediately snatched the area and went. After that, when he reached there, he realised that the situation was not as easy as expected, and was instead getting worse and worse. It became the worse areas. The amount of people they lose was the most.”

“Then, they didn’t come to find trouble with you?” Sima You Yue didn’t believe that the Nalan clan would just swallow something like this. This was a clear trap.

“What trouble could they make? The place that they had gone to was truly the easiest. It merely turned bad at the end. We merely did not tell them that it would happen. What could they say.”

“Old fox.” Sima You Yue muttered.

He had definitely noticed that this place would appear the easiest to handle at this moment, but had noticed a sign that it would turn worse. However, he only talked about the current situation, while leaving out the sign. As a result, the Nalan clan immediately chose that area in order to take advantage, without expecting that it was a hot potato.

Actually, the Nalan clan did get in touch with the Sima Clan later on, but the Sima clansmen had said that they didn’t know back then. Furthermore, the situation had been the easiest back then and they were the ones who had snatched it. It had nothing to do with the Sima clan.

The Nalan clan could only grit their teeth. They knew the Sima Clan had trapped them, but they had no choice. They could only continue to stay there.

Now that the situation had become worse, they were unwilling to continue to press on. As such, they proposed this meeting. Sima You Yue guessed that they would even suggest unifying everyone and bringing them there.

“Where is the meeting this time?” An elder of the Sima clan asked.

“In Nalan Clan’s station, Leaf City. It takes place in five days time.” Sima Tai replied.

“Then who do you plan to bring with you?” Great Elder asked.

“You Yue and You Lin. I’ll take two other guards with me, and that’s it.” Sima Tai said, “The others are to remain here and take note of the situation.”

As he spoke, he took Sima You Yue and Sima You Lin with him. The others had no other opinion because they knew she had a sacred beast by her side. How could they still be concerned about the Nalan clan.

However, there were finally ten people who set off, because Bei Gong Tang and the others had tagged along.

Wherever Sima You Yue was, they would be.

There was no teleportation array between the little city they were at right now, and Leaf City. As such, everyone could only take their flying beasts and reached Leaf City after four days of flying over the ocean.

The Nalan clan had long since dispatched men to receive people at the city gates. So, the moment they reached, the Nalan clan knew about it.

However, Sima Tai did not go and meet the Nalan clansmen. Instead, he took Sima You Yue and the others to an inn and find a place to rest. This really disrespected the Nalan clan.

When the other powers knew about it, they could not help but purse their lips. This Sima clan was really…

However, everyone knew of the grudge between the two clans, and also felt that what the Sima clan did was still rationale.

Leaf City was a marine city anyways, so, when Sima You Yue had nothing to do on the second day, she went with Bei Gong Tang and the others to take a look at the situation at the ocean. She realised that the sea beasts here were truly a much more than the other areas. The situation was much more dangerous.

“You Yue, look. These sea beasts look a little off.” Bei Gong Tang said while pointing to the peculiarity in the ocean.
