Seeing Sima Youyue walking over, Xia Chang Tian and Zhao Xiang Qi heaved a sigh of relief.
"Why are you guys here?" Xia Chang Tian asked.
"I got first place, so Senior Brother came to celebrate with me. When he heard about what had happened outside the city, he said that he wanted to go and take a look to see if he could find anything. We had to meet Pavilion Master Shao outside the city this morning, so we went there last night, "Sima Youyue explained.
"Luckily you guys didn't come late at night." Xia Chang Tian said.
"What's going on here? Why is there such a strong Devil Qi? "Sima Youyue asked in surprise.
"We haven't found out the reason yet, but it's definitely not a small matter." Gao Zhihong said.
"Where's the Pavilion Master?" Wu Lingyu asked anxiously. "He arrived here last night."
"We didn't find him." Xia Chang Tian said, "We found some broken corpses, but he wasn't among them."
"I'll go and contact the pavilion," Wu Lingyu said as he walked to the side.
Soon, the space tunnel opened and a group of people came out. What surprised Sima Youyue was that Nalan Lan was also among them.
Nalan Lan was also surprised when she saw Sima Youyue. Then, she looked away coldly as if she didn't know her at all.
When Sima Youyue saw her, she could not help but recall the time when she was struck by lightning and had to escape. Her lips curled into a faint smile.
"Your Highness Holy Son." The people from the Sage Pavilion bowed to Wu Lingyu.
Now that Shao Yunxiao was no longer around, he was the one with the most authority.
"Left Emissary, have you brought the item?" Wu Lingyu asked.
"Here it is." Ning Tai took out the box and handed it to Wu Lingyu with both hands.
Wu Lingyu opened the box. Inside was a broken life card.
"Holy Son, please," Ning Tai said.
Wu Lingyu nodded and condensed a ball of white spirit energy. The ball of spirit energy wrapped around the life tablet, and the life tablet immediately emitted a white light. The scene of Shao Yunxiao's death appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
At the same time, the Sage Pavilion's main pavilion in the inner regions, as well as the other pavilions, had the same scene.
"What is this?" Ning Tai cried out. "How could this be?!"
They originally thought that there would be a ferocious beast that killed the Pavilion Master, but all they saw was darkness. There was nothing. It was as if he had been killed in a dark space.
"It looks like it's inside some spirit beast's body." Zhao Xiangqi said.
"It should be some kind of magical beast." Xia Chang Tian said, "Maybe it's an almighty from the Devil Realm."
The other people in the Sage Pavilion also noticed that there were still remnants of the devil clan's aura.
"Why would a Demon Realm expert suddenly appear here?" Wu Lingyu asked.
"I'm not sure yet. We can only continue to investigate." Xia Chang Tian said, "Zhi Hong, you guys continue to investigate here. Let's finish the final round of the competition first."
Today was the last match of the first group. Everyone was already waiting in the arena. In order not to cause too much panic, they had to continue the match.
Xia Chang Tian and Zhao Xiangqi left the villa and returned to Cloud Sea City. The others stayed behind to continue looking for clues. In order to accompany Wu Lingyu, Sima Youyue also stayed behind.
"I really didn't think that you would still be alive." Nalan Lan came to Sima Youyue's side and said faintly.
"I really didn't think that you would still be alive." Sima Youyue replied.
"I heard that you won first place in the alchemy competition. That's really surprising." Nalan Lan said, "Looking at you now, it's really hard to link you with the trash from before."
"Looking at you now pretending to be pure and holy, it's also hard to link you with the vicious and merciless person you used to be." Sima Youyue said, "But, speaking of which, you used to like to pretend to be a white lotus in front of others."
"You're still as annoying as before." Nalan Lan said.
"You too." Sima Youyue replied.
Nalan Lan looked at Sima Youyue. After not seeing her for so many years, this girl had become even more eloquent.
"Don't look at me like that. Don't think that I'll forget how you worked with others to kill me in the Yi Lin Continent." Sima Youyue stared back at her.
"…" Nalan Lan laughed, saying, "So? Do you think that you can kill me now? "
"Do you think that I can't?" Sima Youyue laughed evilly, "Do you think that with the protection of the Sage Pavilion, you can sit back and relax?"
"Hehe, you're wrong. I've never worried." Nalan Lan said, "Only I can kill you. You can't kill me."
Sima Youyue played with the illusion ring in her hand. She wondered if she should kill her here and use her actions to slap her face.
"Lan 'er, come here." Ning Tai called Nalan Lan from the side.
Ning Tai's voice suppressed Sima Youyue's impulse. If she killed Nalan Lan here, she would be harassed by the Sage Pavilion. She didn't have the time to go against them now.
"Yes, Left Emissary Ning." Nalan Lan replied, then said to Sima Youyue, "I can see the murderous intent in your eyes. But … let's wait and see. We'll see who's the one who kills who."
After speaking, she didn't wait for Sima Youyue to reply and went to Ning Tai.
"Lan 'er, you know that guy?"
"Mm, I used to know him …"
"Is that so? Come here, I have something to tell you. "
"Okay …"
Sima Youyue watched Nalan Lan leave and muttered, "Alright, let's wait and see."
The people from the Guild and the Pill Subdivision searched the mountain villa for an entire day but didn't find anything. The people from the Sage Pavilion didn't find anything either. Everyone worked for nothing.
That night, people from the sect and Divine Devil Valley came to look for her.
"Go back with them first. We still need to settle things here for a few days." Wu Lingyu said.
Sima Youyue looked at the anxious group and knew that things here wouldn't be easy to settle. It wasn't good for an outsider like her to be here. She nodded and went out of the villa.
Han Miao Shuang, Su Xiao Xiao and Ying Bai Chuan were waiting for her outside.
"Senior Brother, Senior Sister, Senior Brother Ying, why are you here?" Sima Youyue went forward and asked.
Han Miao Shuang and the others saw her coming out and sized her up, "Junior Brother, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I wasn't here when it happened." Sima Youyue said.
"What's going on here? Why did the Devil Clan suddenly appear? "Ying Bai Chuan asked.
Sima Youyue looked around and said, "Let's talk when we get back."
It was so chaotic here. Some things weren't suitable to be said here.
Han Miao Shuang and the others understood. Ying Bai Chuan said, "You've been out for so long. Master heard the news and was worried about you, so he asked us to bring you back."
"Instructor Mao too. When he heard the news that something happened outside and you were outside, the air pressure almost froze us to death. "Han Miao Shuang said.
"Then let's go back."
