Love,
Although he was speechless, Great Master Ji still managed to get her back that night under the temptation of a lost poison recipe.
Sima Youyue did not care how he brought her back. She looked at the person lying on the ground. Her looks … were barely satisfactory.
Tao Yi Xuan clenched his fists when he saw him.
"Old Ji, wake him up." Sima Youyue said.
Old Ji took out a small pill and fed it to him. Then, he got up and the two of them left the room together, leaving Tao Yi Xuan to face his adoptive father alone.
Before he left, Sima Youyue set up a barrier around him.
She and Great Master Ji stood in the courtyard and couldn't hear the commotion inside. She didn't know if he was angry or sad.
"How do you think this brat will deal with his adoptive father?" Great Master Ji felt that he was more interested in things other than poison when he was with her.
"I don't think they'll let him go so easily." Sima Youyue said, "As for how we're going to deal with him, it depends on whether he still remembers our friendship over the years."
"You really want to help him become the head of the family?" Great Master Ji turned to look at her.
"What's the difference?" Sima Youyue smiled at Great Master Ji. "It's the same thing anyway."
"These old bones of mine will probably never have a day of peace because of you!" Great Master Ji said.
"Old Ji, if you have nowhere to go, you can go to Heartbreak Valley. There are a lot of poisonous creatures there, so you can do any research you want. " Sima Youyue said as she threw a token to him. "It's very free inside. As long as you make a small oath before you enter that you will not do anything dangerous in the valley, you will be fine."
"What force is that?" Great Master Ji held the token.
"I'm more familiar with it." Sima Youyue explained the general situation of Paramount Valley to him. She told him that if he wanted to go, he could ask Ximen Feng to arrange a place for him that he liked.
When Great Master Ji heard that there was such a good place, he was rather moved. However, he was used to the life of the Tao Family. If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't continue living, he didn't plan on moving for a while.
"I'll keep this for now. Who knows, it might come in handy one day. "Great Master Ji chuckled as he kept the token. "What do you plan to do next? What do you need from me? "
"You don't have to do anything. You still have to live in the Tao family in the future, so you don't have to get involved in this matter anymore."
Great Master Ji was stunned. He was not allowed to participate at this time?
"This matter will definitely cause unrest in the Tao Family. If you participate too much, it won't be easy for you to have a foothold in the Tao family. You don't belong to any side. If you don't participate in this kind of thing, no one will say anything to you in the future, "Sima Youyue said.
"…" Great Master Ji's heart throbbed a little. He opened his mouth, but his throat felt a little congested.
"Alright, let's not bother about him. Let's go back to our own business." Sima Youyue said and went back to her room.
Great Master Ji looked at her back and laughed silently. It wasn't the usual sneer or feminine smile, but a kind of joy that came from the bottom of his heart.
"Children nowadays …" He sighed. "Forget it, this old man will also go and study that prescription.
Sima Youyue didn't know what Tao Yi Xuan had said to his foster father. She only knew that he had come to ask her for a bottle of Corpse Dissolving Water. When he left, he said, "I gave him a quick death."
In the end, he didn't let his hatred destroy his conscience.
There were only three days left until the Tao family's Great Assembly. Sima Youyue took Tao Yi Xuan away in the middle of the night. She couldn't help him with what he was about to do, nor did she want to interfere. The only thing she had to do now was find the Tao family's old ancestor on the day of the Great Assembly and guarantee that he wouldn't die on that day.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. On the morning of the Tao family's Great Assembly, she had just come out when she saw Great Master Ji standing in the corridor.
"Old Ji, thank you for taking care of me these past few days." Sima Youyue handed him a pill and said with a smile, "Mine is much gentler than yours. I didn't feel anything during the detoxification process."
"Hmph, this old man did it on purpose." Great Master Ji took the antidote and swallowed it. The stagnant feeling in his body slowly dissipated. "You … Be careful."
"I will." Sima Youyue said, "Old Ji, if you come up with anything good in the future, you must share it with this junior."
"You too."
"Old Ji, you sure have confidence in me." Sima Youyue walked out of the courtyard. As she walked, she instructed Thousand Resonance to transform and return to his original appearance. She turned around and the sun shone on her body, "Old Ji, you must take a good look at my appearance. You can't go to Paramount Valley without knowing what I look like. I'm leaving. Goodbye. "
Great Master Ji knew that Sima Youyue had never revealed her true appearance here, but he was still shocked by her sudden transformation. He only regained his senses when she returned to her original appearance and left the courtyard.
"Master, Master, how did Big Sister Youyue do it?" The little child's eyes were filled with worship and his eyes were wide open.
"You can ask her yourself when you grow up." Great Master Ji slapped the child's hands off his legs and went to the research room.
These few days were just a small interlude in his life. Now, his life was about to return to normal.
However, it suddenly felt a little cold and cheerless.
After Sima Youyue left Great Master Ji's courtyard, she turned left and right, avoiding the guards as she headed north.
When she came out of their courtyard, she came into contact with Thousand Resonance and returned to her original appearance. She even changed into the servant girl's clothes.
She hadn't been idle these few days and had been investigating the Tao family's situation. With the map from Helmsman Tuo and the contribution of the scarlet bees these days, she had a clear grasp of where the roads were, when the guards would patrol, and so on.
She avoided the guards and didn't meet anyone from the courtyard to the back mountain.
When she reached the foot of the mountain, she wasn't in a hurry to go up the mountain. Instead, she looked in the direction of the Tao family's courtyard. That place had been filled with earth-shattering noises before, but it had quieted down now. Tao Yi Xuan should have appeared with his men.
"Looks like I have to hurry." She muttered to herself as she turned and walked up the mountain.
"Stop!" Two guards stood in the middle of the road, blocking her way.
Sima Youyue looked at their strength and the two elders from the Egret Clan appeared behind her.
"Since they're here, I'll leave them to you." She ordered the two elders.
"Young Miss, please continue forward." The elder said as he began to fight with the two guards.
Sima Youyue continued forward. Before she reached the top of the mountain, a few more people flew out. Sima Youyue called out the elders from her spirit pagoda and continued forward.
"Who are you?"
Sima Youyue raised her head and looked at the person on the giant rock in front of her, saying, "I'm asking a passerby."
