Insanely Pampered Wife: Divine Doctor Fifth Young Miss

395 I’m one of yours(Chapter preview)

"That's right, I attained a spirit pagoda, and you can store life in it and grow medical ingredients." Sima You Yue nodded, saying.

"How did you manage to attain such a treasure?" Elder Nalan could not contain her excitement - the wrinkles on her face deepening due to her smile.

"That's none of your business." Sima You Yue laughed coldly, looking at Elder Nalan. Was this old fella trying to devise a plan right now? Maybe she didn't know that as they kept her inside, there was no intention to bring her out again.

"Alright, alright. I won't ask." Elder Nalan laughed, saying. As long as she could get this pavilion into her own hands, why did it matter who it had belonged to? But maybe because she did not usually smile, as everyone else saw her smile, they could tell that it was riddled with hidden intentions.

"Elder Nalan, you can't be trying to find a way to take this treasure for yourself, could you?" Fatty Qu said, looking at her wrinkly face, his heart filled with disdain.

"No, no, why would you say that. How could I dare to have intentions on such a great treasure?" Elder Nalan denied quickly. Since they even had Sacred Beasts, even if she had any plans she wouldn't be able to make them come to fruition.

"Actually, it's alright for you to have such intentions." Sima You Yue said, laughing. Elder Nalan's heart leaped, a different kind of feeling creeping into her heart. What Sima You Yue said at the end proved her gut feelings right. "It doesn't matter if you have intentions. Now that I've let you in, I don't intend to ever let you out, so you can only think about it up till the end of today." Sima You Yue looked at her, her eyes murderous.

Elder Nalan glared at Sima You Yue, saying, "You plan to kill me? Don't forget, I'm an elder of the Nalan family. You're just a small fry! If you dare to take any action against me, don't think that the Nalan family will just sit idly by! We'll see how the entire continent deals with you then!"

"You talk as if you're that important." Fatty Qu scoffed.

"If I said that if you get eaten by that Soul-Gnawing Beast while we're looking for it, or that you had gotten eaten by the ocean beasts at any point in time," Sima You Yue said, "Do you think the Nalan family would doubt my account?"

Elder Nalan stumbled backwards, processing what Sima You Yue had just said. "Although I wanted to be the Alliance Head, when the others voted for you, I said nothing! Why do you want to kill me? Is it because you don't want anyone else to know about this treasure that you have?"

"Yes, and no." Sima You Yue explained patiently. "It's commonly said, not to boast of your treasures. Now that you know about this, I can't let you go out to talk about it, can I?"

"But he came in too!" Elder Nalan pointed at Yun Yi.

"Yun Yi is one of my people. I trust him, so he can enter this place." Sima You Yue said. "But you're different - you're my enemy. How can I let you get out alive?"

"Sima You Yue! I didn't know that you were this heartless!" Elder Nalan cried out angrily.

"Heartless?" Sima You Yue was not angry, but was rather amused. "Isn't it right to treat your enemies harshly, in case they turn around to take a big bite out of you? Besides, before your family had decided to try to kill me, you should have thought that this might happen."

Elder Nalan continued to sink. Seeing Sima You Yue like this, she thought that today would be the day that she would meet her end. When the Nalan family had plotted to kill Sima You Yue, she had only known after the plan had been established. But because Sima You Yue had not come to confront them after the incident, they had thought that she had not known about their plot, and that this whole incident had passed. They never thought that she had been having her eyes on them! She looked around her, not sure how she could ever leave the place, causing her to feel extremely anxious.

"Now that you're here, you can forget about escaping. Little Spirit, bring her to Thousand Resonance to have some fun with." Sima You Yue commanded. Little Spirit was hovering in the air, and at the snap of its fingers, Elder Nalan disappeared. Not long later, a sound of a terrible cry could be heard.

Sima You Yue turned to look at Yun Yi, saying, "Yun Yi, you won't leak this information to others, right?"

Yun Yi smiled lazily, saying, "You've already said so, I'm your person, of course I would keep your principles in consideration." He spoke skittishly, but Sima You Yue knew that he would maintain the confidentiality.

"Since you're one of mine, you will have to listen to me obediently, if not, I'll dump you." She said, following his manner of speaking.

Mo Sha listened to the dialogue from inside the devil's snare bracelet, unconsciously raising his brows. One of hers? This statement made him feel extremely uncomfortable, and he felt a sudden urge to kill Yun Yi.

"How dare I not listen to what Young Valley Master says?" Yun Yi said, looking at the houses that were far off. "Is that where you rest? Let me find a place to rest as well." As he said so, he walked towards the houses, choosing the room as he pleased.

"I'll go see, in case he ends up taking one of our own rooms." Fatty Qu said, chasing after him.

Bei Gong Tang came next to Sima You Yue, and looking at the houses, said, "Are you sure?"

"I trust him." Sima You Yue said. "We've come so far, let's all get some rest first."

"Alright."

Everyone rested for a day, and the next day, the whole group gathered to discuss the matters of the Soul-Gnawing Beast. When he found out that a day outside was equivalent to ten days in the pavilion, Yun Yi was greatly in shock. No wonder they were able to grow so much although they had only been apart for half a year's time. It was because they had this mechanism to cheat the system! And so he decided that he must befriend the Young Valley Master, so that he can develop his skills in arrays with this method.

Because they could not be sure as to how powerful the Soul-Gnawing Beast was, Sima You Yue decided to let them wait in the spirit pavilion, going out first with Halcyon, Thousand Resonance and Yun Yi, only calling the rest out when it was necessary. Everyone agreed that their powers would be useless outside anyway, and agreed to wait in the pavilion.

Sima You Yue and her little group then left the pavilion. Although they had been inside for a day, only a couple of hours had passed on the outside.

"Let's go. We must see what has become of this little island." She followed the memories that she had retrieved from the scarlet bees and went deep into the island. In order to avoid being attacked by the Soul-Gnawing Beast, they decided to travel on foot.

As they entered the island, they saw the dark scene that the scarlet bees had seen. All the plants had been destroyed. But rather than rotting, they had all become soot-black, as if they had been painted with black ink after their lives had been sucked out of them.

"The whole plain is like this." Sima You Yue looked around. It seemed like except for what seemed like an area of forest, the rest looked like that black scene.

Yun Yi kneeled down and took out a silk handkerchief to retrieve a blade of grass. And as he touched it, it crumbled into black powder and flew away with the wind. Maybe because the black powder had covered the other living things, including the fauna, that the entire island had become like this black powder, creating a thick layer of it on the ground.
