Insanely Pampered Wife: Divine Doctor Fifth Young Miss Novel - Chapter 432
Chapter 432: She’s A Demon
“An Array Master?”
Seeing these unforeseen changes, the Zhuo family and Jiang family members were shocked. Secretly, the Zhuo family members were a little happy on the inside, but the Jiang family was deeply flustered.
“Never thought that you’d also be an Array Master, I have looked down on you indeed!” Jiang Fei looked at Sima You Yue, for she did bring about some unforeseen news. However, he still remained unconvinced that her array would be able to imprison him.
The workmanship of arrays was linked to the skill of the one who made it. Sima You Yue didn’t look very outstanding, and maybe she had not even surpassed the divine rank. What’s more, without decades and centuries of research, there was no way that this array would be one that would be made successfully. Sima You Yue didn’t look very old or like she had not studied arrays for very long, so she was probably not that great.
As they entertained these thoughts, they started to relax, and looked at Sima You Yue and the rest, saying, “This is your regularly protective array, isn’t it? I wonder if it will be able to handle the attacks of two High-Rank Divine Kings! I’ll give you a chance to remove your arrays and come out, and I will spare you from your death.”
“Spare me from my death?” Sima You Yue scoffed. “If you think you’re that great, try attacking my array then.”
“Humph, it’s just a measly array!” The Mid-Rank Divine King gruffed, gathering his spiritual energy to launch an attack at them.
Meanwhile, the Zhuo family members simply watched as that Divine King attacked the array. Seeing that even Zhuo Ran was not going to intervene, they just continued to look from afar, although they were feeling so worried that it felt like their hearts were beating out of their chests. As the attack hit the array, there was an impact that no had had ever imagined that they would see. It was as though the spiritual energy was simply being absorbed by the array, disappearing and dissipating silently.
“What….” That Divine King looked at the rays from the array, and was shocked speechless. He was well aware of how powerful his own attacks could be. He had put in his best efforts, yet it amounted to nothing, not even a scratch!
The Zhuo family members were elated. This array was indeed so powerful that even a Middle-Rank Divine King could leave no impact on it. That means that even if Jiang Fei was to personally make a move, he may not be able to destroy it either.
“Since you have already launched your attack, I guess it is time for us to return the favour.” Sima You Yue moved to stand in the middle of the array and asked Zhuo Yang to move to the side. It was only after he moved did she take the array stone and put it over the little groove that was made where he previously stood. After she put the array stone in, there was no noticeable change in the array. However, rays of light started to beam around outside the array. And when the beams of light disappeared, the Jiang family members started to go crazy.
“Augh!! I’ll kill you!” One of the young men started to give chase and hack at the person standing next to him.
“Just because you think you can?”
“I’ve hated you for a long time!”
“Damn you! How dare you hit an elderly man! I’ll kill you today myself if I have to!”
“Master Jiang, I’ve had feelings for you for a while now, how about we get together?” Even the City Lord was starting to utter nonsense.
“Get out!”
As the people started to speak rubbish and attack one another, each person exhausted all their energies on the others, as though they were fighting against their sworn enemies.
Jiang Fei and the Evernew City Lord were fighting each other, and the Spirit Paragons were being beaten up by the High-Rank Divine Kings, some of them dying from their injuries. Everyone who was hit by the array was kept outside of the protection. Meanwhile, everyone was who was within the array remained completely unaffected, and none of the Zhuo family members felt a single thing, for they were protected.
“These people are too soft, they’ve been smashed so quickly.” Sima You Yue said flatly, looking at all the dead bodies.
The Zhuo family members looked at her easygoing and breezy demeanour. There was no way one would have thought that she would be someone who could destroy a Divine King. Zhuo Yang thought about how he had pit himself against her in the past, and broke out in cold sweat. He never imagined that she would become a respectable Array Master. If he had known back then, he definitely would not not dared to disrespect her. Now that everything has happened, and if she happened to hold a grudge, what was he to do? He looked at her carefully, worried that in an act of revenge that she would throw him out.
“You Yue, what’s wrong with them? Why have they gone ahead to kill one another?” Zhuo Ma asked.
“I’ve put out an illusion array outside. So when it starts, they will start to hallucinate and stop being able to recognise the people around them, but only consider them to be their enemies. At the same time, they will start to spill out their innermost thoughts.” Sima You Yue explained.
“But isn’t this a protective array?” Zhuo Ma couldn’t understand. He had never seen a protective array that could also double as an illusion array.
Sima You Yue explained patiently: “At first I opened a protective array, then I unleashed the illusion array. The two arrays kind of overlapped, so you can think of it as an array within an array.” Zhuo Ma stared at Sima You Yue, utterly shocked. She wasn’t entirely sure of what she was talking about, but it sounded formidable, whatever it was. For any other array master, being able to set up one array was already a big deal. But for her, she could create an array within an array. How powerful must she be?
“There will still be some time before that fight with those Divine Kings, I think we can all go back to rest before that happens.” With that, she returned to her original seat and sat down and continued to tend to her wounds.
As the Zhuo family members saw how calm she was compared to the crazy battle ongoing outside, they shuddered. Nonetheless they were really grateful that Sima You Yue was on their side, if not they might have died that very night. As they looked at the battle that had yet to finish itself, they realised that no matter where they went, they would not be able to leave the outermost beam of light, and could only fight where they were. Which means that from this moment on, they would not be able to leave this place, but only look at the outcome from the inside. As they realised that, they started to look at Sima You Yue with gazes that carried some dread.
What a scary person. Even with all the bloodshed that was going on around her, she was neither shaken nor moved, letting them continue to destroy themselves till the end.
As the night passed, the sun started to rise again. It was only at this time did Sima You Yue open her eyes again.
“So he’s the one who remains at the end? I thought that it would be a Jiang family member who would be the last man standing.” She looked at the Evernew City Lord, who was lying on the ground, panting, with one of his arms missing. His legs had been cut into stumps, and the flesh on his body flapping around from the slash wounds. His skills were not far off from those of Jiang Fei, so the fact that he survived longer than Jiang Fei did was probably just by a stroke of luck.
When he was the only one left alive within the array, the array started to dissipate and disappeared, as its use was no longer required. It was only then when he saw the body parts and fresh blood pooled around him. He looked at Sima You Yue, shocked beyond measure. It was like interacting with a demon!
Because the Zhuo family members had seen all that had happened from the start till its end, they felt a deep sense of fear take root in their hearts. As Sima You Yue got up and walked over, she kept the array stone, and both the protective and illusion arrays disappeared.
“Great Master, these people…?” Zhuo Ran asked, looking at Sima You Yue. He even changed the way he addressed her now.
“Since they had come with you as their target, you can decide what to do. I think you wouldn’t want the Jiang family to know what happened today, right?” Sima You Yue said. Because she was still unwell, she could not be bothered to deal with this situation.
Zhuo Ran nodded his head and said, “You there, let’s clear the bodies and the blood.”
“Yes, family head.”
Sima You Yue went to the nearby river to rinse herself off. By the time she had returned, the Zhuo family had already cleared up the area. Upon seeing her return, everyone froze in their places.
