It wasn't until half a month after that incident that Tao Yi Xuan finally dragged his exhausted body to the inn.
Sima Youyue poured him a cup of tea and said, "You don't look very well. Drink some tea to wake yourself up."
Tao Yi Xuan did not stand on ceremony as he took the tea and drank it in one gulp. Then, he looked at her.
She smiled and poured him another cup.
"If you're like this, I'll think that you won't even have water to drink after becoming the head of the family." She teased.
"That's about right." Tao Yi Xuan said, "I just wanted to sort things out quickly so I could come and see you."
"So you're saying that you've already started?" Sima Youyue thought about the ambiguity in his words and changed the topic.
She did not really think that Tao Yi Xuan was working so hard for her.
"You can say that. I've already grasped the general direction. " Tao Yi Xuan said, "Youyue, you're going to tell me the details of the people you're looking for now, right?"
"Alright."
Sima Youyue took out two portraits and said, "These are my master and teacher. They came to the Lost Lands a few decades ago. In the beginning, they … "
"There aren't many outsiders on this island. A few decades ago, they weren't that far from here. You should be able to find them." Tao Yi Xuan said, "However, it might take some time."
"Let me know if there's any news." Sima Youyue said.
"Alright."
"However, I won't be staying in Phoenix City for long. If I leave, I think you'll have a way to find me." Sima Youyue said.
"You're leaving?" Tao Yi Xuan said a little anxiously, "Since your main goal in coming here is to find them, I'll send people to help you find them. You just have to wait here for the results."
"I can't wait any longer." Sima Youyue said, "Instead of being anxious here, why don't I go out and search?"
"You said that they're very good at alchemy and medicine?" Tao Yi Xuan asked.
"Yes. What about it? "
"If that's really the case, they might be participating in the Crimson Pearl Convention."
"Crimson Pearl Convention? What's that? "Sima Youyue asked.
"It was a conference about medicinal herbs and alchemy. The people on this island are far too bored. They always like to find something to do and satisfy their vanity at the same time, making it seem as if the people here are more powerful than the outsiders. "Tao Yi Xuan said sarcastically.
"You think that my master and the others will participate in this Crimson Tree Meeting?" Sima Youyue guessed.
"Since your master and the others are experts in this field, they might participate or have participated in it before."
"Participated in it before?"
"I'm just guessing. If they had participated in it, they would have left behind some clues, and we might be able to start our investigation from there. "
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Sima Youyue said, "Where will the Crimson Bamboo Meeting be held this year?"
"The Crimson Bamboo Meeting is always held in the four major cities. This year, it's White Tiger City's turn."
"White Tiger City …" Sima Youyue remembered that it was not easy to enter the city and said, "Is it impossible to enter White Tiger City now?"
"Those with invitations are welcome."
"Then can you help me get an invitation?"
"Sure."
Outsiders were invited by their families to participate in this event. Regardless of their strength or status, they could invite those who were qualified to participate.
The Tao Family was one of the top families in Vermillion Bird City, so they naturally had this qualification.
"Thank you." Sima Youyue said gratefully.
"This is what we agreed on, so there's no need to thank me." Tao Yi Xuan said, "I need a bit of time, so I'll give it to you tomorrow. There's still some time before the Crimson Pearl Meeting, so there's still time. Also, I'll send people over to investigate first. Since there's a starting point, it should be much easier to investigate. Once there's news, I'll let you know. "
"Alright."
Tao Yi Xuan did not sit for long before leaving. Right now, he had too many things to do. He had to quickly send people to investigate Xu Jin and the others, so that he could give her news when she reached White Tiger City.
The next day, Tao Yi Xuan did not come, but he sent a guard to deliver an invitation.
Sima Youyue looked at the Vermillion Bird drawn on the invitation and thought of Chi Yan.
If they knew that she really had a Vermillion Bird, what kind of expression would they have?
"Young Miss Youyue, my Master has instructed that if you encounter any danger and it's not convenient for you to come out, you are to release this signal flare into the air. Our people will rush over to save you." The guard took out a signal flare and handed it to Sima Youyue.
"I understand." Sima Youyue took the signal flare and said.
"Goodbye."
Sima Youyue studied the signal flare in her hand and knew that he was doing her a favour. He knew that she had so many people, but she might not be able to use them. However, since he was doing her a favour, whether she used it or not was her own business.
Since they had already received the invitation, they did not stay here any longer and went to find Guo Yin Da and the others to say goodbye.
The other small families had already left, but the Guo Family was still busy here. She could already see the signs of their rise.
"You're leaving already?" Guo Yin Da did not think that they would leave so soon. He thought that they would stay here to wait for news from Tao Yi Xuan.
"Mm, we're going to participate in the Crimson Pearl Convention." Sima Youyue said, "Although there's still a bit of time, we want to go to White Tiger City to take a look."
"That's good too. Then be careful on your way. If you need anything, just contact us. I hope that we'll have a chance to meet again. "Guo Yin Da smiled.
"The world is big, we'll meet again. Goodbye. "
Guo Yin Da and the others watched as Sima Youyue and the others left. Thinking about what happened after they met her, they felt rather emotional.
"It's really not bad for people to live like them." Guo Xin was a little envious.
"With power, you can do whatever you want. Now you know that there's always someone better than you, right? Work hard on your cultivation. "Guo Yin Da spurred.
"When have I ever not worked hard? However, I feel that I can't be as carefree and casual as she is. Even when she needs help from others, she can make things better for herself. It's as if no matter how difficult things are, she can easily solve them. "
"Wait for the clan to settle down, then you should go out and take a look. This world is very big. If you stay on this island, you'll be confined. "
"Okay …"
… …
It was said that White Tiger City's teleportation array was closed. Sima Youyue and the others could only leave Vermilion Bird City and call out Chongming to fly towards White Tiger City. Luckily, Vermilion Bird City was in the south of the island and White Tiger City was in the west. The distance was not very far. Even if they rode on flying beasts, it did not take long.
Halfway there, Little Lucky and the ancient spirit beast came back together.
"Why is it only you? Where's Little Roar? "
"He left with Big Sister and said that he'll come back later to find you. I missed Yue Yue, so I came back. "
Sima Youyue knew that Little Lucky was very clingy to her and Little Roar loved to play. She did not think much of it and continued on with him.
When they arrived at White Tiger City, they saw the towering city walls. On the city walls, there were carvings of white tigers. The carvings were vivid and lifelike, as if a white tiger was standing on the city walls, roaring towards the sky.
Sima Youyue focused on it and suddenly thought of a question that she had never thought of before.
If the Vermilion Bird was with her, then where were the other three spirit beasts?
