After taking two teleportation arrays, they finally arrived at Chord City. Just as they exited the Spirit Master Guild, they saw Sima Zhi Yuan and the others waiting outside.
Sima Youyue and the rest did not expect that they would come here to pick them up. They could not react in time.
"Hahaha, you're finally here!" When Sima Zhi Yuan saw Sima Youyue, he walked over and hugged her, laughing happily.
He didn't look as dignified as he usually did.
The Sima family members behind them who had seen Sima Zhi Yuan and Sima Youyue meet for the first time were stunned, while Sima Xiu Qi and the others regained their senses.
"Patriarch." They bowed to him.
However, he ignored her. He hugged Sima Youyue and said, "My child, you're finally here. If you didn't come, I would have gone to look for you!"
Sima Youyue was out of breath from his hug. She patted his shoulder and said, "Great-grandfather, I can't breathe from your hug."
Sima Zhi Yuan then let go of her, "Hehe, I was too excited."
Sima Youyue took a step back after escaping from the clutches of the devil. She patted her chest as if she had just survived a disaster.
Sima Liu Xuan, who was at the side, saw how excited Sima Zhi Yuan was and bowed to him, "Patriarch."
Sima Zhi Yuan's attention shifted from Sima Youyue to him. Seeing his silver hair, he felt a little sad and patted his shoulder, saying, "It's good that you're back."
Sima Liu Xuan felt the power coming from his shoulder, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings as he said, "Yes."
"Patriarch, why are you here?" Huang Ying Ying asked.
"That's right. Great-grandfather, why are you here?" Sima Youyue was curious too.
Even if Sima Zhi Yuan wanted to see her, he wouldn't have brought so many people here.
Therefore, there must be a reason.
"How dare you! How can you not abide by the rules and call the Family Head great-grandfather?! "An old man behind him berated loudly.
Sima Youyue was scolded for no reason. Her face darkened and she was unhappy.
No one in her family had ever scolded her like this before! How dare a stranger scold her in public? She didn't come back to be bullied!
However, before she could say anything, Huang Yingying shouted first. She pointed at the old man's nose and scolded, "Sima Tu, what are you barking for?!"
Sima Youyue had an idea.
Sima Tu? Wasn't that the one Grandpa mentioned, the one who was at odds with Grandpa's bloodline?
He was also the biggest suspect in the family's attempts to persecute him.
Thinking of this, she narrowed her eyes and carefully sized him up.
Although he and his grandfather were only cousins, the two of them looked very similar. However, his grandfather looked cold and righteous, while he looked somewhat sinister.
He didn't know if it was because he had given her a hint.
"Huang Ying Ying, your granddaughter is so disgraceful. How dare she call the head of the household her great-grandfather!" Sima Tu was not intimidated by Huang Ying Ying's attitude at all. He continued to criticize Sima Youyue.
"You …" Huang Ying Ying wanted to scold him, but a soft little hand grabbed her arm.
"Old Grandpa, you're already so old. You should have some brains. Why do you keep saying things that show off your intelligence?" Sima Youyue laughed.
Although she was laughing, everyone could tell that she was scolding him.
"How dare you!" The younger people beside Sima Tu scolded.
"Why, am I wrong?" Sima Youyue's face darkened, "I'm not a member of the Sima family. Why do I have to follow your family's rules? To put it bluntly, I was invited by my great-grandfather. I'm considered your guest. Who do you think you are! "
"You …"
Sima Tu wanted to continue scolding her, but Sima Zhi Yuan, who wanted to see Sima Youyue's reaction, scolded him, "Shut up! Youyue is right. Move to the side! "
"Head of the household …" Sima Tu looked at Sima Zhi Yuan in disbelief.
Although he was usually temperamental and often scolded them, he would never scold them because of the younger generation.
When he said that she was right, he meant that she was right when she said who do you think you are?
"Great Grandpa, it seems that they are not satisfied with this title. Since that's the case, I'll call you the head of the Sima family from now on." Sima Youyue looked at Sima Zhi Yuan, feeling wronged.
Although Sima Zhi Yuan knew that she was purposely acting so wronged, he still felt sorry for her. He scolded Sima Tu, "Get lost. I shouldn't have brought you here!"
"Head of the household?!"
The rest of the family looked at him. Why was the Head of the household so angry? Even if she was a talented younger generation, there was no need for him to scold the elders of the family like this, right?
"Hmph, it wasn't easy for me to get her to agree to call me Great Grandfather. If any of you continue to make noise, then scram back to the family!" Sima Zhi Yuan's words were not only directed at Sima Tu, but also the rest of the family.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay, then answered in unison.
Sima Zhi Yuan turned around to look at Sima Youyue and immediately smiled.
"Youyue, alright, I've scolded them. Don't be angry anymore!"
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched. This fawning look, was it really the same person who had scolded them just now?
"Great Grandpa, you're the best!" Sima Youyue went up to hug Sima Zhi Yuan's arm and said with a smile.
The others thought that Sima Zhi Yuan would shake off her hand. There had never been a younger generation who could overstep the rules like this before. This little girl was too daring!
But the expected situation did not happen. Sima Zhi Yuan was even happier.
"Great Grandpa, why are you here?" Sima Youyue asked again.
"We wanted to see you quickly, so we came." Sima Zhi Yuan said and winked at her.
The real reason couldn't be said?
Sima Youyue understood. Since he couldn't say it, then she would go back and say it.
"Great Grandpa, did you miss me, Father and Grandmother? If you had told me earlier, I would have come back earlier. "She smiled," By the way, Great Grandpa, this is my disciple Mu Si. "
"This is Mu Si! Not bad, not bad! "Sima Zhi Yuan said," Where are your grandfather and brothers? "
"They stayed in the valley." Sima Youyue said.
"The inner region is indeed more dangerous than the outside. It's better to stay outside and be taken care of by the valley." Sima Zhi Yuan said.
"I think so too." Sima Youyue replied.
In fact, Grandfather and Fatty Qu also said that they were willing to follow her here. If they felt that they were a burden, they could cultivate in the spirit pagoda and come out when they were stronger.
However, she refused this time because she didn't know what she would encounter in the inner region. If they stayed in Heartbreak Valley, it would be safe and stable. And because Paramount Valley was there, they would not stop her from getting news.
Sima Zhi Yuan brought them back to their residence before Sima Liu Xuan asked, "Patriarch, did something happen in Chord City?"
