Chapter 422: Farewell Kiss

Translator: Misty Cloud Translations  Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Sima You Yue saw that his eyes were brimming with tears, and felt a little strange on the inside. At the same time, she was unable to pinpoint exactly why she felt so strange, and so she just ignored the feeling. However, she still said, “Since you are, after all, my senior brother, I will do my best.”

With those words, the knots that were in Wu Lingyu’s heart slowly undid themselves. Since he knew that he was not just another person to her, he was able to leave with his mind at peace.

“I’ve got to go.” He said.

Sima You Yue stumbled, looking at him, astonished. “You’re leaving? So suddenly?”

“It’s not sudden, rather that you’ve been busy with your arrays and things, so I didn’t inform you earlier.” Wu Lingyu said. Who knows what that darned old man has been up to in the past two days that he would be relentlessly calling him back. Although he very much wished to remain by her side, his reluctance to leave would be picked up by the old man, and that could create more trouble for her instead.

“Please do not reveal your gender to anyone anymore. Especially not in front of people from the Sage Pavilion.”

“Why not? What have you heard?” As Sima You Yue watched his expression, she knew that it wasn’t simply because he did not prefer to see her dress as a woman in front of others.

“I’ll just tell you now since it no longer matters.” Wu Lingyu said. “There has been a prophecy in the Sage Pavilion, that a four-faceted female spirit master will overturn the existence of the Sage Pavilion. So all these years, the Sage Pavilion has been looking for such a woman. And once they find her, the command is to kill her. They would rather kill ten of thousands in error than to let any one slip past them. Many women have been killed this year because of that.”

Sima You Yue’s heart froze in shock. Could it be that her father had asked her to be in disguise all this while because of that?

“I think your father had asked you to go into disguise precisely because of this. Although you were not up there, the Sage Pavilion is not like anything else. They have subsidiary groups everywhere in the other continents. And regardless of the location, any woman whom they suspect meets the requirements would meet the same fate.” Wu Lingyu said. “Thankfully you have already destroyed the Sage Pavilion subsidiary here. If not for that, even if you guys did nothing, I would destroy them myself.”

Sima You Yue looked at Wu Lingyu, and knew that everything that he said was true. If she had not destroyed them before she had revealed herself to be a woman he definitely would have gotten rid of this cancerous group himself. Still, not everyone was aware that she was a master of all faculties.

“I got it.” She understood the implications of it all. Before she had the ability to fight the Sage Pavilion, she must not revert to her women’s dressing. “But how do you know that I am the one that they are looking for?”

“At that time you were too young and did not know how to conceal yourself.” Wu Lingyu said. “Although you’ve never used it, it could not be hidden from me.”

“What a stalker.” She muttered quietly.

“When you return to the valley, you will no longer need to conceal yourself and you can wear whatever you like. But before you go back there, you must never dress in your women’s clothing again, do you understand?”

“Alright, alright. You’re really naggy.” She whispered the last three words under her breath. This guy really was such a nagger.

Wu Lingyu felt that there was movement coming from the space ring, and a look of annoyance and impatience flashed across his eyes. He stroked her head, saying, “I’ve got to go. Don’t be lazy, and come soon.”

“Remember to use the spirit fluid as necessary. If something serious happens again, even Mo Sha might not be able to save you then.” Sima You Yue reminded him.

“Alright.”

Wu Lingyu took out a piece of jade, and let Sima You Yue drop a droplet of her blood on it. After which, he put his own blood upon it, so that she would be able to locate him from now on. Sima You Yue looked at the jade and noticed that it was slightly different from hers, although it could still locate another party. Wu Lingyu kept his jade stone, and opened a portal. Seeing that there was no one around them, he grabbed her quickly and seized the opportunity to leave a quick kiss on her lips and said, “Lady, I must be the only one who can have a place in your heart.” Seeing that she was slightly annoyed, he smiled with satisfaction, and flew into the portal before she could unleash her annoyance, leaving the capital.

“Whatever!! Ugh!” Sima You Yue screamed into the air, freed from his grasp. This punk had taken advantage of her again while she was focused on something else! Again! It made her feel weak again. “You’d better not see the day where I become stronger than you, if not I’ll beat you till you’re naked and throw you unto the street! UGH!! UGH!!”

On the other side of the portal, Wu Lingyu emerged from the portal and called Fire Qilin to go straight to the Sage Pavilion. As he felt movement emerge from the space ring once again, he half smiled and said, “Do you think I should take action first? This punk is becoming more and more annoying.” If not for him, he would still be with Sima You Yue right now.

“It is not the time yet.” Fire Qilin replied flatly.

Wu Lingyu looked up into the sky and said. “How cruel. Sigh, let’s go and see what is going on back there. After that, we must return to the Divine Devil Valley to take a look, in case that old man starts to worry…”

Sima You Yue cursed him all the way until she reached home. Seeing her blackened expression, none of the Sima family members dared to go up to her to say their hellos. With such spirit energy, triggering her further might cause some chaos. Even Bei Gong Tang said nothing when she saw her, not asking any questions.

“Where’s your senior brother?”

“He’s gone back.” Sima You Yue replied angrily. “He’d better not let me come across him again, if not I’ll….” She drifted off towards the end, but seeing that she was clenching her cup so hard that she was on the verge of crushing it to bits with her hands, they knew intuitively that Wu Lingyu must have done something to annoy her.

“We’re done with the spirit gathering array. Let’s see what the family clans have planned. Everyone else is training hard, we should go up while it is still early.” She dusted off the powder that remained of the crushed cup, and returned to her own home.

“I think You Yue is being rather strange.” Fatty Qu said.

“What’s strange?” Bei Gong Tang said. “Let’s all go back to training. If not we can only remain her when You Yue goes up.” With that, she returned to her own yard to train. Wei Zi Qi and the rest understood that Sima You Yue would not wait that long for them. If they wanted to ascend with her, then they would have to rely on their own training to reach that standard where they could follow her.

The family clan had decided swiftly to convert the gathering square to three small houses, so that there would be a training space for one person to train each house. One house was a reward to the family clan, one for the younger generation who showed promise, and remaining house was free for all to use. Originally, they had planned to give one house to Sima You Yue, but she had turned the offer down, for it was better for her to train in the spirit pagoda instead.

Towards the end, Sima You Yue secluded herself, bringing a large group of prodigies with her. Sima You Yang and the rest had also come, along with Sima You Le, Sima Lie, Sang Mo Yu and some others. Anyone who had ever entered the spirit pagoda was shut in together with her. They all had their eyes focused on the Primordial Lands, and determined to ascend to that place. As such, they focused solely on practicing, and were separated from their obligations to the household affairs.

Like that, a year passed by. In the spirit pagoda, ten whole years went by.
