When everyone heard her say this, they all held their breath, not knowing what she would say next.
“Patriarch Hua, do you know why the general medicinal materials are useless for your injury?” Sima You Yue asked.
“We were also discussing this matter before. Young Princess knows the reason?” Hua Xu asked.
“Your injury is caused by soul power, so this pill with ghost energy is generally useless.” Sima You Yue said.
“Soul Power!” Hua Yuan exclaimed, “Could it be the Soul Clan who hurt the Patriarch?”
“That’s right. Although the person who hurt the Patriarch was wearing the attire of the Zheng Clan’s, we really haven’t seen that person before.” The Great Elder said as he thought back carefully.
“That’s right.” The Patriarch thought about it for a moment, and realised that he hadn’t seen that person before.
“We recognise all the strong exponents of the Zheng Clan. I thought that it was a foreign aid hired by the Zheng Clan, but I didn’t expect it to be someone from the Soul Clan!” The Great Elder said.
“We are not very far from the boundary between the two realms, but no one from the Soul Clan has ever come here before, nor has such a situation ever occurred. I didn’t expect that this time they turned out to be the ones behind this farce!” Hua Xu’s heart sank, if it was true, then this matter was not a simple family feud.
“Thank you for sharing this piece of news with us, Young Princess. If we didn’t know this and just deal with the Zheng Clan normally, I am afraid we would have been caught off guard.” Hua Xu got up and bowed to Sima You Yue in gratitude.
“Young Princess, do you know how many of those from the Soul Clan are in the Zheng Clan?” Hua Yu asked.
“A lot.” Sima You Yue replied, “We have already informed my cousin Di Zhe about this, but as far as the current situation is concerned, I’m afraid that you won’t be able to wait for him to send reinforcements.”
Hua Xu heard what Sima You Yue said, and after thinking about it, he understood what she meant. He arched his hand at her and said piously: “Would Young Princess please point out the way out.”
They had never thought that Sima You Yue would help them, so he scolded the Seventh Elder to not have any ideas that involved her. But now that Sima You Yue took the initiative to come to them and told them about the Soul Clan, her intentions became obvious.
Sima You Yue tapped three fingers on the table, and Hua Xu felt that every time she tapped, it resounded in his heart.
If it was just the Zheng Clan, he would still be able to deal with it. But now there were people from the Soul Region who were intervening, if Sima You Yue had not informed them, they wouldn’t even know this, let alone how much power the people in the Soul Region had. But he didn’t know if Sima You Yue would be able to deal with those people.
Thinking of these, he was exceptionally nervous.
Sima You Yue took out a token and said, “Use this to call the Duke over.”
Hua Xu took the token and did not question her. He was about to call the Duke, and the Great Elder stood up and said, “I’ll go.”
Seeing that Sima You Yue had no objection, Hua Xu gave the token to the Great Elder. The Great Elder left and soon arrived at the Duke Manor.
The relationship between them and the Duke was not very good, because the Duke of Western Verge, Duke An Xi, once liked a lady from the Hua Clan, but because she already had someone she liked, she rejected him. However, he was a bad person, even if he was rejected because of this, he did not do anything bad to the Hua Clan, but simply helped less.
When the Duke saw the Great Elder holding the token, he was surprised for a while and followed him to the Hua Clan.
He recognized this token. It was the token of Great General Di who could directly mobilize all the Dukes and City Lords. Moreover, he also heard that the Young Princess and Mo Yu were there, hence he went over quickly.
After An Xi saw Sima You Yue, he saluted respectfully. After granting him grace, she asked: “Duke An, do you know the reason for calling you over today?
“I have heard the Great Elder explain along the way.” An Xi responded, “Unexpectedly, the Soul Clan appeared in Western Verge Region, and they even ganged up with the Zheng Clan.”
“Since you know it, then I don’t need to say anything further.” Sima You Yue said, “What do you think of this?”
“Originally, this was a matter between the Zheng Clan and the Hua Clan, so I didn’t plan to intervene. But now that the Zheng Clan is involved with the Soul Clan, it’s a different story altogether! However, if I were to go directly to the Zheng Clan, I’m afraid they won’t admit it so easily and we won’t be able to find out the purpose of the Soul Clan that’s lurking behind. So I propose that we can use some tricks to let the Zheng Clan reveal their tricks and we can also take the opportunity to fish out the people from the Soul Clan.”
His thoughts were similar to the results of the discussions between Sima You Yue and Hua Xu. Sima You Yue nodded slightly and said, “This is indeed the safest. The Zheng Clan is just a small family. Dealing with it is the second most important thing.Uncovering the scheme of the Soul Clan is our priority. Since both of you have the same idea, then I don’t think I need to say anything for the rest of the matter. You can do it together.”
“Is Young Princess leaving the matter alone?” An Xi asked.
“I am not familiar with the things here, nor the Zheng Clan, so I won’t participate.” Sima You Yue said. If it hadn’t been for this matter to involve the Soul Clan, she might not have come out at all. “You are the aristocratic family here, and you are also the Duke here. Just take care of these things.”
Initially, they thought that she was unwilling to intervene in such a thing,but when they heard her say that, they understood that she was respecting their rights. This made them look at her in a different light in their hearts. Only those who know her know that she has always liked to be hands off, and that she would not move her hands if she could not do things personally.
“Then let’s discuss the countermeasures now.” Hua Xu said to the Duke, “Yes, did the Great Elder tell you that the Wei Clan is also involved in this matter?”
“The time on the road is too short, I only talked about the Soul Clan. The Wei Clan has not heard about it. Are you and the Wei Clan family friends? Are they planning to help you? Then…”
“You are mistaken, the Wei Clan is not trying to help us, but has already aligned themselves with the Zheng Clan.” When Hua Xu mentioned the Wei Clan, he was even more angry than when he mentioned the Zheng Clan.
“What?! How did this come about?”
Hua Yu told An Xi about Wei Xing and what he said. After listening to him, An Xi said, “Then this matter is a bit troublesome. I don’t know if the Wei Clan is also involved in the Soul Clan’s affairs.”
If they were, even if there was the Soul Clan behind them, then the situation was even more severe.
“They don’t know. The Zheng Clan didn’t tell them this.” Sima You Yue said.
When the Hua Clan saw that Sima You Yue was so sure, they knew that what she said should be true. She said that there was a Soul Clan behind the Zheng Clan, and she should also be aware of the Wei Clan. They could work along this when they make plans later.
However, she said she was involved in this matter unintentionally, how could she know these things so clearly in such a short time? It must have been checked by someone whom they couldn’t see.
It seems that the Ghost King really doted on her!
