Chapter 1810: Despicable

Sima You Yue looked around, and there could not see anyone nor could she feel that there was anyone hidden in any spatial space.

“Blacky, is there someone?” She walked over and touched its head.

Blacky relaxed the moment she touched it, and it barked twice at her, with a different momentum than before.

“Do you think someone is there?” Sima You Yue squatted down and rubbed the fur on his neck. “Perhaps there was a guest just now, but there is no one here anymore. Go and play.”

Blacky barked at her twice and ran out by itself.

She looked at the place Blacky was staring at just now, narrowed her eyes slightly, and did nothing, closed the door and arranged an array and started to cultivate.

In the invisible space of Huan, he saw her start to cultivate, condensed the shape of a chair, sat down, raised his legs, and muttered: “You are still so sharp. But what is your little black dog? It obviously doesn’t have any spirit power but it makes me feel a majestic power. This power should be sealed, right?”

After speaking, he paused, trying to reach out to poke the barrier to protect her, and stopped when he was about to touch it.

“If I touch it, you will find me. Alas, You Yue, when will you think of us? I look forward to your betting appointment with My King…”

In the next few months, she stayed in her house and cultivated in earnest. Except occasionally going out to meet with Murong Hui, she spent all her time in her own courtyard. She spent most of her time cultivating her soul tactics. The rest of the time was reading books to expand her opinion. The knowledge of the Ghost Realm was either to practice some alchemy and refine some armaments to prevent her from losing her touch.

The only purpose of her going out during this period of time was to find a place to survive the lightning tribulation. By this time, people in Vast City became accustomed to the lightning tribulation from time to time. Although there were still people who would visit every time, they never saw anyone who crossed the lightning tribulation.

Over time, various versions of legends have flowed out, but only Sima You Yue has not been involved.

This kind of life continued until the next year when the City Competition was about to start did she then appear in front of everyone. However, it was only during the time when the City Competition was held. The moment it was over, she began to cultivate in retreat again, until the time before the Region Competition.

In the past year or so, her strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and the strength of Vast Region has also been greatly improved due to the discovery of the ore veins. However, compared with other duchies, it was still quite a big gap to bridge.

The affairs of the Dong Clan and the Xiao Clan were still the hot topics that people would talk about after dinner. The reputation of Murong Hui and Sima You Yue spread out of Vast Region and spread to the Crown City.

However, it was nothing more than the destruction of the two families, and it did not arouse too much waves. Only a few people who paid attention to it would think of it from time to time.

“Say, would Murong Hui come with Murong Xi?” Holding a black rose, she snipped off the stem with a pair of scissors, and then placed the flowers in the vase.

Her movements were so elegant, and she looked very noble. The flower in her hand doesn’t seem to complement her beauty, but it was her who made it more beautiful.

However, the tone of her speech was not as gentle as her actions as she exuded a tinge of killing intent.

“Yes, Princess Consort. They have already left.” The person kneeling on the ground bowed his head, afraid to look at her.

“The Mo Clan told me not to go to Vast City to trouble her for ten years. I didn’t expect that after only two years, she would fall into the trap on her own! In that case, how could I miss such a good opportunity!” It seems that what she was snipping was a flower stem, but an enemy!

At the same time, in another part of Great Yu City, a handsome man walked into a small garden. As soon as he entered, I saw Xiao Ruo Bai sitting in a daze by the pond.

“You are in a daze again.” The man walked over and stood beside her, looking at their reflections in the water.

“Seventh Prince, you are here. Anything?” Xiao Ruo Bai nodded lightly, saying hello to him.

Since she was rescued to his manor, he would come to find her from time to time. At first, she ignored him and treated him indifferently. Had it not been for him to involve the Xiao Clan, why would the Xiao Clan end up like this?

However, Yu Qi was not defeated by her attitude, but showed all kinds of care for her. After a long time, the two could finally exchange a few words.

“The region competition is about to begin.” Yu Qi said, “People from Vast Region have already set off to Great Yu City, and Murong Xi is among them.”

Hearing the name Murong Xi, Xiao Ruo Bai bit her lips, and the hand on her knee clenched into a fist subconsciously.

“She only killed the Envoy not long ago, and the Princess Consort wanted to find a chance to get rid of her. Why did she come here at this time?”

Yu Qi stared at her, “Do you still care about her? She arranged the illusion array in Moon Creek Valley by herself, and still used poison in it. Without that illusion array, the Xiao Clan wouldn’t be destroyed so easily. Shouldn’t you hate her?”

“Hate.” Xiao Ruo Bai made no secret of her hatred, “but I also know that she didn’t set up the illusion array for the Xiao Clan, but still wanted to find out who wanted to kill Murong Hui. If Grandfather didn’t attack Murong Hui, such a thing would not happen. Speaking of which…”

She raised her head to look at Yu Qi, “Speaking of which, I should hate you even more! If it weren’t for you, the Xiao Clan would still be the old Xiao Clan, and all my family members would still be alive.”

Yu Qi didn’t deny what she said, nor did he argue for himself, because that was indeed the case.

“You hate me, I can only bear it. But, why do you think Murong Xi came to Great Yu City.” He looked at her face, not letting go of her expression, “Will you go to her for revenge?”

“I don’t know.” Xiao Ruo Bai looked down, “I am just an orphan with no support and no strength. What should I do to deal with her and Murong Hui?”

“You still have me.” Yu Qi said, “As long as you speak up, I can do anything for you.”

“If I let you kill yourself, will you do it too?” Xiao Ruo Bai stared at him with a serious tone.

“Do you want to?” Yu Qi also asked seriously.

Xiao Ruo Bai lowered her head, “What does it matter?! Isn’t the result the same? What choice do I have?”

She was just a lonely and helpless person now, what right does she have to think of revenge?

“Ruo Bai, I said, as long as you nod your head, you are my Princess.” Yu Qi looked at her helplessly, “Don’t you understand my heart?”

“I’m tired, I have to go back to rest.” She didn’t want to talk about these things anymore, and simply stood up and left.

Yu Qi stretched out his hand and wanted to hold her but it froze as he looked at her decisive back, and sighed deeply.

“Don’t worry, I will avenge you.” He said loudly towards her back, “I will.”

Xiao Ruo Bai paused, and did not turn around.

“Actually, you just want to find an excuse to deal with Murong Hui with an upright attitude, simply because he didn’t want to stand on your side. Don’t you think it’s too despicable to use me as an excuse?”
