Wu Lingyu understood her worries. She already had many things to do, if something were to happen again, the pressure on her would be too great.
Although he had no intentions to be responsible for Fu Xi, however, You Yue felt that he had come to look for her specially, and because of some things, she felt that she should be responsible for him. Since she had already decided, then he could only respect her wishes.
However, the Devil Realm had been begging him to return, the situation over there was not simple. He wasn’t sure if he could wait until You Yue had collected all the Cardinal Points Divine Seals.
He wanted to tell her the whereabouts of the Cardinal Points Divine Seal, but even if he did, she would still have to go back to the Ghost King to authenticate the Northern Cardinal Points Divine Seal, then go with him to get the Eastern Divine Seal. It was better to let the Ghost King tell her with him.
Fu Xi didn’t know what the both of them were thinking of, he was still immersed in the battle he was in earlier and said excitedly: “You Yue, use lightning bolt to temper my body and make my body stronger. You didn’t see me during the fight just now…”
He described the battle to them in excitement but they ignored him and let him talk to himself. By the end, You Yue didn’t bother to pay him any attention and called Di Jiu Jiu over and asked about the result of the battle: “Jiu Jiu, what’s the situation?”
“Two of our brothers died, thirty injured, two of which were seriously injured.” Jiu Jiu replied.
The number of casualties in this kind of situation was considered low.
“Give them good quality medicine pills, and let them rest and recuperate. Once their injuries have healed, we will return to the Imperial Capital.” Sima You Yue said.
“Yes.” Because there were serious injuries, this was also Di Jiu Jiu’s plan.
“In addition to this, send some men to investigate further. Lan He has been operating here for so many years, there should be more people than the ones that we have discovered. We need to dig a little deeper.”
“Yes, Young Princess.”
Because they wanted to track down the whereabouts of Leng Feng and the others, the people that Di Jiu Jiu had brought with him were good trackers. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have found Lan He’s people in such a short period of time. If they were given more time, they would be able to dig deeper.
Early the next morning, Xiao Ling came to look for Sima You Yue. He was worried that she had been injured in the battle the night before. When he saw that Sima You Yue was fine, he begged her to teach him how to cook.
For the rest of the time, You Yue spent them in the inn. The innkeeper and the waiter had fled, hence they occupied the place in dignity. She usually helped Leng Feng and the others with their recuperation, she also listened to Di Jiu Jiu’s news reports and spent the rest of the time teaching Xiao Ling to cook.
Xiao Ling knew that Sima You Yue’s time here was short, that’s why she taught him continuously. He learnt non-stop, wanting to learn to cook more dishes before she left.
When Sima You Yue was teaching, she also took into consideration the condition of Leng Feng and the others. She chose dishes that had medicinal and conditioning effects on their bodies because she wanted to use this opportunity to help their bodies recuperate better.
Leng Feng and the others were lucky, the dishes made by Sima You Yue and Xiao Ling were both delicious. Those dishes ended up in their stomachs and their emaciated bodies fattened up.
On this day, while Sima You Yue and Xiao Ling were cooking in the kitchen, Xiao Ling mentioned the three Honorables. Sima You Yue asked him why no one had asked any questions when she had caused such a stir in Abyssal City.
“Uncle and Xu Wu spoke to the other Honorable and asked him to stay out of this matter. He also knew your identity, so he turned a blind eye.” Xiao Ling explained.
“So it’s because they spoke on my behalf. In that case, I owe them another favor.” Sima You Yue said.
“I don’t know about Xu Wu, but I was surprised that my Uncle spoke up. Based on his temperament in the past, he usually remained silent. But when I went to speak to him the other day, he told me that he had already taken care of matters.” Xiao Ling was a little surprised as he spoke of this. This was inconsistent with his Uncle’s temperament. Did he help her because she was his Master?
“Before I leave I have to go and thank him in person.” Sima You Yue said.
When he heard her mention leaving, Xiao Ling’s mood dropped. He lost interest in making the noodles in his hands. His hands stopped and he asked: “Master, have you already decided when you are leaving.”
“I’ve not decided on the specific date, but I know roughly when.” Sima You Yue said: “I’ve been here for more than half a month. Leng Feng and the others’ health has improved a lot and there are matters waiting for me to attend to in the Imperial Capital. I will probably go back in ten days.”
She wanted to go back to see how her Grandfather was doing. She had to find Hai Mian’s location, she also had to find the Cardinal Points Divine Seals to rescue her mother.
There were all these things that were waiting for her to do, especially Hai Mian’s matter. The longer it dragged on, the more harm she would suffer. She had to find her as soon as possible.
“So soon!” Xiao Ling whispered.
“Yes. But don’t worry, I will leave you the recipes. I haven’t finished writing them yet, so I will give them to you before I leave.” Sima You Yue said.
“Oh.” Xiao Ling replied weakly.
For some reason, when he heard that she was leaving, his heart felt empty suddenly. It was as if once she had left, it would be meaningless to stay in the city by himself. But wasn’t this place where he had lived for hundreds of years? Why couldn’t it compare to having her here for half a month?
In that case, he had to reconsider the advice his Uncle had given him.
“Master, will you go to the Abyss of Hell in the future?”
Sima You Yue thought that he knew about her Mother, but when she looked over at him, she realised that it was surprise in his eyes, not questioning. She asked calmly: “Why are you asking me this question?”
“Master, I am going back.” Xiao Ling said, “My Uncle told me that he is going back to the Abyss of Hell, he asked if I want to go back with him. At first, I didn’t want to go back, but there doesn’t seem to be any meaning to staying here now. Besides, I’ve left home for a few hundred years anyway, I should probably go back to take a look.”
“Your Uncle is going back to the Abyss of Hell? Didn’t you say that he has been living here all this time?”
“I was also very surprised when I heard this news. But my Uncle has already made his decision, no one can change his mind. I was going to ask you if you knew why.” Xiao Ling said.
“Why would I know the reason?” Sima You Yue smiled and concealed her embarrassment. Surely that guy wasn’t going back for her Mother? Did she just find a love rival for her Father?
However, most people didn’t know the place where her Mother was being suppressed, even if he went back, it was probably useless. Let him go back to look for it first then.
When she thought of this, the worry in her heart for her Father calmed down.
