A short moment later, a small blue cluster of fireworks shot into the sky above forbidden area three. When the men of Innumerable Green Palace saw the fireworks, they were to report the situation to their Palace Lords.

“There are coloured fireworks in the skies above forbidden area three?”

Although the various Palace Lords were rather puzzled, as long as they weren’t in closed door cultivation, they rushed towards forbidden area three.

The blue fireworks were the mark to gather all Palace Lords.

Those Palace Lords rushed to forbidden area three and saw that the Vice Palace Lord was already there Lian Ze and Xia Zhong were even together. Furthermore, there were some strangers opposite them that were currently inside forbidden area three.

The Palace Lords were enraged as they called out, “Who dares trespass!”

“Enough, all the Palace Lords who can make it are already here.” Lian Ze said.

“Lian Ze, what is going on?” Vice Palace Lord asked, “What are you guys doing here?”

“In response to your question, Vice Palace Lord, Xia Zhong wanted to harm Sima You Yue and the others, and got someone to lead them into the forbidden area. He wanted to get the vicious beasts to kill them. If they were able to survive it, he would have gotten Innumerable Green Palace to punish them with the crime of trespassing.” Lian Ze explained.

Vice Palace Lord looked at Xia Zhong, saying, “But what happened?”

“Vice Palace Lord, I got Qiao Qiao’s servant girl to get some things done with my nameplate this morning. However, seeing that she had yet to return despite it being so late, I followed the aura of my name plate and found them here. Who would have thought that I would see them with my servant girl kidnapped, and had already entered the forbidden grounds.” Xia Zhong explained.

This was the story that Qiao Qiao had concocted for him earlier on, in order to explain the situation.

Vice Palace Lord looked at Sima You Yue and the others. Wasn’t one of them the contracted master of the King of the Rocs?

“What do you guys have to say?” He asked while turning to look at them.

“They will definitely have the same story as Palace Lord Lian. They were initially on the same side.” Xia Zhong said.

There were Palace Lords that believed Lian Ze, while others believed Xia Zhong. It was expected that they would not know much about Sima You Yue and the others.

“Vice Palace Lord, before I answer your question, let me ask you a question. If the story was really like how Palace Lord Lian had said, what would happen to Palace Lord Xia? If it is like what Palace Lord Xia has said, what will happen to us?” Sima You Yue asked.

Half an hour ago, Lian Ze came over here. Afterwards, when Xia Zhong was not paying attention, she entered the forbidden ground and regained her original appearance. She then got Bei Gong Tang to stand up and walk back. It was only then that Xia Zhong realised the one on the ground was Wu Qiao Qiao’s servant girl.

After that, she requested for Lian Ze to call all the men from Innumerable Green Palace to gather and didn’t speak at all after that.

The Vice Palace Lord said without any hesitation, “If Palace Lord Lian speaks the truth, then Palace Lord Xia has hurt the guests and is no longer suited to become a Palace Lord. If Palace Lord Xia speaks the truth, then you all will be subjected to the punishment of our Innumerable Green Palace. We will only know the punishment after discussion.”

Sima You Yue nodded, then said, “Since everyone is present, then I believe the Innumerable Green Palace will not renege. Bei Gong, come here.”

Bei Gong took out a sound stone and inserted her spirit energy. Xia Zhong finally realised that the words he spoke just now were recorded down.

The Vice Palace Lord’s expression turned darker and darker as Xia Zhong’s face turned whiter and whiter.

“Vice Palace Lord, I’m guessing that in the face of evidence, there’s nothing more to say, right?” Sima You Yue said, “Little Roc, what do you think? Do I need to make a big deal out of this?”

Little Roc appeared in front of everyone. Although nobody had seen the great roc, they’d heard of the news.

“He is the contracted master of the King of the Rocs?”

“The internal strife between the bird clan had already concluded a short time before, so all the bird clans are under the rule of the Great Roc. If they act against us, wouldn’t we be in danger?!”

“How did Xia Zhong end up provoking a person like that?!”

Little Roc turned into his human appearance and stood beside Sima You Yue. He looked coldly at the men of Innumerable green Palace, “Dare to touch this king’s Master? Innumerable Green Palace is truly great! If you do not give me a proper answer today, this king will not mind ripping apart the agreement between spirit beasts and mankind, and get out my bird clan! Otherwise, anyone will assume that this King’s Master is an easy target!”

Little Roc spoke very seriously. He was not just putting up a front. Although he knew that Sima You Yue did not wish to borrow the might of the bird clan, he did not wish to let her suffer even a bit of grievance.

A white bearded senior flew over and landed in front of everyone. It was Qing Yuan.

“Greetings to Palace Lord.” Everyone bowed to Qing Yuan.

“Xia Zhong has framed a guest. He has mistreated human life because of a small issue. His personality has turned for the worse, and is no longer suited to be the Palace Lord of Red River Palace.” Qing Yuan said, “As of today, withdraw from your position of Palace Lord and enter the great prison. We will fix a date for your punishment another day.”

Those other Palace Lord did not think that they would strip him of his position just like this, and were stunned.

Qing Yuan looked at Sima You Yue, asking, “Are you satisfied with this?”

Sima You Yue never thought that the amiable looking senior would be the Palace Lord of Innumerable Green Palace. She raised her eyebrows, “What happens to Xia Zhong is your Innumerable Green Palace’s internal issue. However, to me, I came as a guest to your Innumerable Green Palace only to almost lose my life…”

“We will pay out the proper compensation.” Qing Yuan’s beard trembled.

“Since that’s the case, take out your items for compensation. If Little Roc is not satisfied, I will have no choice.”

“The compensation will naturally satisfy you.” Qing Yuan said, “However, if you want to continue talking here, the vicious beasts will come out soon and you will be in danger.”

Sima You Yue thought it over. This was the other party’s territory after all. If she went overboard, she might end up losing out. After all, Innumerable Green Palace was still the greatest sect. If a fire were to break out, she would not necessarily escape unscathed.

“Alright then, I’ll trust you this time.”

After speaking, she took Xia Zhong’s name plate and brought everyone out of there.

“Then, let us go to the main palace to discuss your compensation.” Qing Yuan said.

At this moment, Sima You Yue smiled, saying, “Palace Lord Lian and I can be considered as friends, how could I request a compensation gift from you. We were given quite a shock today, so if there’s nothing else, we will be heading back to rest first.”

Qing Yuan’s beard trembled again. This brat actually had a move like this. She used retreating as an advance. Although she said that she didn’t need a compensation gift, how would he dare not to give one to her. He had no choice but to give her more items. If she were unsatisfied, wouldn’t she cause trouble with the Innumerable Green Palace?

Little fox!

Shortly after Sima You Yue and the others returned to Soaring Cloud Palace, Vice Palace Lord came personally to deliver the compensation gift. After saying a bout of nice words, he gave her an interspatial ring.

Sima You Yue did not look at the items in front of him. Only when he left, did she scan the inside. When she saw the items inside, she smiled with satisfaction and handed the ring over to Bei Gong Tang and the others.

When they saw the items inside, they smiled as well.

On the second day, Lian Ze came over and said that the teleportation array was fixed.

Sima You Yue and the others decided to make a move immediately. Chou Xiao Tian wanted to go with the, but Sima You Yue rejected him.

Once they reached that place, they would definitely call the others out. If he saw Fatty Qu and the others there, the existence of the Spirit Pagoda would be revealed.

As such, with Chou Xiao Tian’s begrudging gaze, they walked on ahead to the teleportation array to Central Area.
