When Sima Youyue heard Sima Lie's words, she originally wanted to tell him that she was an all-rounder, but after thinking about it, she decided not to. She only told him that she could sense spiritual energy, but this was enough to make him excited.
"Yue Er, is what you said true? You can really sense spiritual energy? "Sima Lie suddenly hugged Sima Youyue and asked excitedly.
Sima Youyue saw Sima Lie's excited look and couldn't help but laugh. She nodded and said: "Yes, my poison has been cured. Last night I tried to cultivate, and this morning I felt a light surrounding me."
"What?" Sima Lie suddenly froze and looked at Sima Youyue with a strange expression.
Sima Youyue was frightened by Sima Lie's expression. Could it be that she didn't sense spiritual energy before and she made a mistake? She carefully looked at Sima Lie and said: "Grandfather, is it because I can't cultivate? That isn't spiritual energy? "
"Ha ha ha ha — —" Sima Lie didn't answer Sima Youyue's question, but instead laughed loudly and said: "I knew that my Yue Er wasn't trash, but a genius. Ha ha ha, no, a genius among geniuses!"
Sima Youyue looked at Sima Lie's excited look. Although he didn't answer her, she understood what he meant and couldn't help but break out in cold sweat.
Sima Lie laughed enough and slowly calmed down, saying: "Yue Er, you only spent a night to sense spiritual energy, this is something that no one has ever done before! Thinking back to when Grandfather was called a genius, he also used around four to five days to sense a light. Most people meditate for half a month and still not be able to do it! As for your brothers, the shortest one used a week. Ha ha ha, not only can you cultivate now, you also have an extremely high talent! "
Sima Youyue was stunned by Sima Lie's words. She thought that spending a night was considered long, but she didn't expect it to be so short!
If that was the case, then her cultivation speed would be extremely fast?!
"Yue 'er, what colour of light did you sense?" Sima Lie asked as he thought of the question she had asked about his attributes.
Sima Youyue thought that it would be better for her not to reveal the fact that she was an all-rounder before she became strong enough to avoid being envied and framed like in her previous life. Furthermore, Sima Lie had just said that the entire family had not appeared for hundreds of thousands of years. If her matters were to be exposed, it might bring disaster to this family.
"Grandpa, I can only sense red light spots." Sima Youyue replied. Sima Lie and her brothers were all Fire Spirit Masters, so it was normal for her to say that she was a Fire Spirit Master.
"Yes, everyone in my family is of the fire element. Looks like you are one too." Sima Lie nodded his head and said, "Tonight, you must definitely call your four brothers back to celebrate. After that, we'll spread the news of you being able to cultivate. Let's see if anyone dares to call you trash in the future!"
"Grandpa, I think it's better not to tell anyone about this." Sima Youyue advised.
"Why? Yue 'er, I know that although you don't say it, you care a lot about what others think. In the past, I even saw you secretly hiding in the courtyard and crying. That's why I didn't force you to go to the academy. "Sima Lie looked at Sima Youyue in confusion.
"I've lived for fourteen years and have never been able to cultivate. If I suddenly say that I can cultivate, others will think that I'm just spouting nonsense. Furthermore, those people will constantly look for me to verify whether or not I can cultivate. That will bring me unnecessary trouble. "
Sima Lie heard Sima Youyue's words and said, "But you also care a lot about others saying that you're trash. You're my granddaughter, why should you suffer such grievances?"
"I did care a lot and was very sad before, but that was because I really couldn't cultivate. It wasn't because of what others said. Now that I can cultivate, I don't care what others say. Furthermore, whether or not I can cultivate is my own business. Even if others know about it, I won't be able to increase my strength. On the contrary, it might even bring danger to the family. Grandpa also has many strong opponents, right? The Nalan family has always been dissatisfied with us. If they know about my talent, they might have bad intentions. "Sima Youyue said.
Sima Lie looked at Sima Youyue with satisfaction. Ever since she was injured, she seemed to have changed a lot. She was no longer willful and was more sensible. She also thought about things more comprehensively than before.
"Mm, what you said makes sense. Then for the time being, we won't tell anyone about your cultivation. However, we still need to call your four brothers back to celebrate. We'll close the door and celebrate by ourselves! "Sima Lie thought it through and regained his mood.
"Then I'll go back to cultivate first. I'll wait for my brothers to come back at night before coming back. "Sima Youyue finished speaking and turned to leave.
"Wait." Sima Lie called out to her.
"What's the matter, Grandpa?"
"Come with me." Sima Lie said as he turned around and walked to a corner of the study. He touched the wall and found a protruding spot. He pressed down heavily and the bookshelf beside him slowly moved aside, revealing a hole in the ground. A staircase extended downwards. He took out an illuminating pearl and looked at Sima Youyue, saying: "Let's go down."
Sima Youyue looked at Sima Lie's mysterious appearance and followed him down. She discovered that this was a place similar to a basement. The long passageway led to who knows where.
"We're here."
After walking for a few minutes, they finally reached their destination. Sima Youyue looked around and saw that it was a simple stone room. Other than a stone table in the middle and a box on top, there was nothing else inside.
Sima Lie came to the front of the stone table and said: "This is something your father left behind. He said that he would give it to you when you could cultivate. I'll give it to you now. "
Sima Youyue heard Sima Lie's words and felt that it was strange. However, she couldn't tell what was strange. She saw Sima Lie's encouraging eyes and walked to the front of the stone table. She reached out and took the box. She wanted to open it but was stopped by Sima Lie.
"Open it when you're alone."
Sima Lie's eyes were very insistent. Sima Youyue could only nod her head and prepare to open it when they returned.
"Okay, let's go back." Sima Lie said.
Sima Youyue left Sima Lie's study and returned to her own courtyard. She sent Yun Yue and Chun Jian out and sat on the bed alone. She placed the box in front of her and stared at it.
Sima Lie had just told her that Yun Yue and Chun Jian were trustworthy people. This was because they had sworn an oath to themselves that they would never betray her. Although Sima Lie had asked them to swear an oath, under the constraints of the rules, they still couldn't betray her. Otherwise, they would be thrown into the abyss by the power of the oath.
The power of the oath was also one of the most mysterious things in this world. Swearing an oath was like making a contract with the laws of heaven and earth. If one violated the contract, then it was the same as violating the contract. One would be forcefully thrown into the abyss and never be able to leave!
