Chapter 1851: Di Si Kong

The man moved his fingers and someone brought a chair for Sima You Yue immediately.

Sima You Yue sat down and faced the man. She adjusted her skirt before she looked at him, and said quietly: “I come from a small place, how am I supposed to guess where Your Excellency is from? Why don’t you tell me what your name is and why you have brought me here. If it is to threaten the Prince of Great Yu and the others, then I’m afraid you have the wrong person. I am just a nobody and am of little use.”

“Haha…” The man chuckled, “Do you believe that you are just a nobody?”

“Of course I believe it.” Sima You Yue nodded earnestly. There was a saying, if you wanted others to believe it, you had to believe it yourself first.

“If you are just a nobody, how can you exterminate the Xiao Family Patriarch so easily? If you are just a nobody, how can you heal the Prince of Great Yu’s injuries that he has suffered with for over a decade? If you are just a nobody, why would the black dragon submit to you? Tell me, are you really a nobody?” Tha man asked.

Although there was a smile on Sima You Yue’s face, her heart was brewing a storm, this person knew everything!

Since he was so certain, she didn’t act dumb about it either. She shrugged her shoulders: “It seems that you have been investigating me. You know everything about me, but I don’t know anything about you. Don’t you think that’s a little unfair?”

“I have spent a lot of effort investigating you.” The man said, “If you want to know who I am, don’t you think you should exchange something for the information?”

“I don’t have anything to exchange with you. Tell me if you want, don’t tell me if you don’t want to.” Sima You Yue leaned back against the chair.

“How boring, I thought that you would at least try to guess!” The man said.

“The world is so big, and there are so many capable people, how will I know everyone?” Sima You Yue said.

“No, but with your intelligence, I’m sure you will be able to guess it. It’s just that you’re not interested in guessing.” The man said, “Perhaps I should do something to pique your interest. Look who that is?”

Sima You Yue looked in the direction he was pointing at and saw the guards bring out two men. Her eyes narrowed slightly.

“What’s the meaning of this?” She asked.

“I heard that they are your good friends, I invited them over first because I wanted to invite you to come.” The man said.

“Xi’er, have you been captured by them too?” Gongzi Yuan looked at Sima You Yue and called out.

“Are you alright?” Sima You Yue asked.

“We’re fine. It’s just that our spiritual energy has been sealed.” Gongzi Yuan replied.

Sima You Yue nodded at the two of them, then she looked at the man and said: “Tell me, why have you brought me here?”

“You don’t have to treat me like your enemy, I just wanted to befriend you.” The man said.

“Your method of befriending someone is really special.” Sima You Yue snorted coldly: “Let Gongzi Yuan and Xiao Ruo Bai go.”

“I have never intended to make things difficult for the two of them to begin with, it’s just that with them around, you will talk to me with more sincerity.” The man said, “When things are settled, I will naturally let them go. But if you are unwilling to talk, I can’t guarantee their safety.”

“I will agree to any terms you have.” Sima You Yue said.

“Perfect! Straightforward!” The man clapped his hands together, “I heard that these two people had a good relationship with you in Eternal Brilliance City. Now that they are being treated so well by you, their undying loyalty to you in Eternal Brilliance CIty was not in vain.”

“Since you want to negotiate terms with me, shouldn’t you show me slime sincerity?” Sima You Yue said, “Since you have sealed their spiritual energy, they won’t be any threat even if they are with me.”

The man thought about it for a while, then he waved his hand, and the guards released Gongzi Yuan and Xiao Ruo Bai immediately. Once Gongzi Yuan was free, he took Xiao Ruo Bai and walked to Sima You Yue’s side.

“Xi’er, why did you come here? They have many highly skilled opponents here.” Gongzi Yuan said.

“I know.” Sima You Yue said, “Are the two of you injured? Take this healing pill first.”

She took out two pills and gave them to the two of them. Perhaps the man was too confident of his own strength, as he didn’t stop them.

Gongzi Yuan took the pill and ate it, while Xiao Ruo Bai stared at the pill in her hand for a long time.

“Ruo Bai?” Gongzi Yuan urged her.

Xiao Ruo Bai raised her head and looked at Sima You Yue, after she said thank you, she swallowed the pill. As soon as she had swallowed the pill, she knew that this wasn’t just a simple healing pill!

“Alright, we can speak now. What do you want?” Sima You Yue stood in front of the two of them and asked the man.

“Very simple, I want you to leave with me.” The man said.

“I don’t even know who you are. Besides, you want me to leave with you, but aren’t you afraid that I will betray you?” Sima You Yue asked.

“That’s easily solved, don’t you think? My name is Di Si Kong, you may have heard of my family clan.” Di Si Kong said.

“Di Si Kong?” Sima You Yue was startled. She remembered Di Wu E in the Spirit Pagoda, “I’m sorry, I’ve never heard of the Di Si[1] Family Clan, I only know the Di Wu Family Clan.”

“You know Di Wu Family Clan?” Di Si Kong laughed, “Di Si is obviously more powerful than Di Wu, why do you know of them but not us? It’s all the same anyway, Di Si and Di Wu families all support the Ghost Concubine”

“Ghost Concubine? Don’t you know that the Ghost Concubine had sent someone to kill me and my Father before? If she has sent you to look for me, I wonder if she has suspicions about your Di Si Family?”

“The Ghost Concubine knows all about your abilities, naturally she will accept you. Our Di Si Family can still keep you alive.” Di Si Kong said.

“But I don’t want to work for her.” Sima You Yue said, “So, I apologise, I cannot accept your terms.”

“Are you sure?”

“I thought that you wanted me to heal your legs. I didn’t expect you to ask for this. I am someone who will seek revenge. Since the Ghost Concubine has sent someone to kill me in the past, she is lucky that I haven’t looked for her for revenge. Now she wants me to work for her, do you think that is possible?” Sima You Yue snorted coldly.

“You will follow me, you won’t have to meet her.” Di Si Kong explained.

“Isn’t it the same thing? Change your terms, I can still consider it.” Sima You Yue said.

“Do you think that you have any choice now that you are here?” Di Si Kong stopped smiling. His breath became dark: “You either agree, or you will die. There is no other choice.”

“What if I insist on choosing a third option?” Sima You Yue asked.

“Then you will pay the price for your choice! You can choose the one called Gongzi Yuan, or this beauty.” Di Si Kong threatened.

“It’s a pity, but I can’t choose.” Sima You Yue said.

“Then I will choose for you. Aren’t you enemies with this beauty, then she will be perfect!” As soon as Di Si Kong finished speaking, the spiritual energy belonging to that of an Underworld Paragon swept towards Xiao Ruo Bai.

[1] In mandarin, it’s actually written as the fourth and Di Wu is the fifth. So this might be a prelude to another ranked clan that’s named literally.
