The two of them went to look for Sima Zhi Yuan and saw that everyone was frowning.
"What's wrong?" Sima Youyue looked at them in confusion. "Did something happen in the family?"
"Sigh." Sima Zhi Yuan sighed, still not saying anything.
"Alright, from the looks of it, it shouldn't be a big deal. Tell me, what's the matter that's making you so conflicted? "Sima You Yue sat on the empty chair at the bottom, and her hanging heart finally calmed down.
"How do you know he's fine?" Sima Zhi Yuan glared at her, "Can't you see that Great Grandfather's hair is turning white?"
"Didn't your hair turn white a long time ago?" Sima Youyue glanced at him helplessly.
"…" Sima Zhi Yuan glared at her, "You little heartless one, I was so worried about you, and you're still talking about me like that."
"Oh? You're worried about me. What's the matter? Let me see if it's really that worrisome, "Sima Youyue asked.
"Hmph, it's all because of those ignorant brats. They actually dared to come to my residence to propose marriage. What the hell! My Youyue is not someone that can be married to a nobody like them? He's not worthy! "Sima Zhi Yuan snorted coldly.
"Pfff —"
Sima Youyue and Sima Liu Xuan spat out the tea in their mouths.
"Great-grandfather, what did you say? Someone is proposing to me? "Sima Youyue looked at everyone in surprise. "Great-grandfather, you didn't agree, did you?"
"Of course not! Do you think your Great Grandfather is blind! "Sima Zhi Yuan snorted coldly.
"That's good." Sima Youyue heaved a sigh of relief.
"But more people came after that. In just a short two months, seven or eight groups of people came. It really angered me to death!" Sima Zhi Yuan said.
"So, great-grandfather, do you think that no one wants to marry me?" Sima Youyue asked.
"No way! My Youyue is the best. Those people are not worthy of you! Speaking of which, why wasn't there any news about Wu Lingyu? Is he asking for a beating? "Sima Zhi Yuan was very unhappy.
"He was delayed by something over there. Could it be that great-grandfather doesn't like me and wants to marry me off as soon as possible? "Sima Youyue pursed her lips.
"Says who!"
"Isn't that right? Then why are you still upset?" Sima Youyue said with a smile.
"I'm just unhappy." Sima Zhi Yuan snorted coldly.
"Alright, there's no need to worry about these things. There are other things that you need to worry about! "Sima Youyue said.
"Is it about the undead?" Sima He Shun immediately guessed what she wanted to say.
"That's right. If this matter is not resolved, it will be suspended here. "Sima Youyue said.
"We all know about what happened in Paramount Valley. Although the Yang Clan was forced to hide in the end, if we don't get rid of them completely, I'm afraid that there will be a huge problem in the future." Sima Zhi Yuan said.
"The Yang family isn't the most important right now. What we need to guard against now is … the Hidden Clan's Northern Du Clan. "
"Northern Du Clan?"
"If the Yang Clan enters the Northern Du Clan, with their hatred towards me and Paramount Valley, I'm afraid that they will drag the Northern Du Clan down with them." Sima Youyue's expression turned serious, "And the best way is to let them think that I'm a threat to them. Once the Northern Du Clan believes it, I'm afraid that they will deal with me and the Sima family. "
"Under such circumstances, it's indeed not good to deal with Paramount Valley. Our Sima family seems to be easier to deal with. "Sima He Shun understood Sima Youyue's worries.
"That's right, that's what I'm worried about too." Sima Youyue said worriedly, "I'm afraid that they will make a move on the Sima family."
"You don't have to worry about that." Sima He Shun smiled, "Our Sima family has already risen in recent years. Do you think it's that easy to deal with us now? As long as they don't use the undead, we don't have to worry. And they don't even dare to use them now. "
"But I'm the one who implicated the family." Sima Youyue felt very guilty when she thought of this.
"Sigh, you're not right." Sima Zhi Yuan said disapprovingly, "You and the family are one. You helped the family rise, so we should protect you."
"That's right. Don't think too much about it. " Sima He Shun said, "We've been developing in secret for so many years, it's time for others to see our strength. You just have to go back to the family and stay in peace. You don't have to worry about anything else. "
"Great Grandfather, Great Uncle, I'm worried that the Northern Du Clan won't do it themselves and will let others deal with us. So the family has to be more careful and be more cautious of others. "
"We know." Sima He Shun agreed.
If it was Sima Zhi Yuan who said it, Sima Youyue would have said a few more words. But since Sima He Shun said it, she didn't have to worry.
"Alright, since there's nothing else, I'll go back first." She stood up and said.
"Go, go. Liu Xuan, stay behind and talk to us. " Sima Zhi Yuan waved at Sima Youyue and waited for her to leave before saying to Sima Liu Xuan, "Tell us what happened to her during this period."
"Yes, Patriarch."
…
After Sima Youyue returned to her courtyard, she immediately went into the Spirit Pagoda and rummaged through the Treasure Pavilion to see if there was anything else she could help the family with.
After rummaging through it, she realised that the only thing she hadn't given to the Sima family was the arrays. Previously, she felt that this thing belonged to the Hundred Changing Doors after all, but now that the situation was special and she had given the rubbing to the little old man, it shouldn't be a problem for her to use it. And now that the situation was special, she had to strengthen the family's defensive array.
Thinking of this, she rubbed a copy of the Imperial Beast Art and Spirit Seeker's Origin together and told Bi Sheng to come and get it. Bi Sheng was very fast and came over to her place in a short while. Sima Youyue passed the items to him and said, "These are some cultivation methods that I've collected over the years. Take them back to Feng 'er, he will know what to do."
To be safe, she had placed a restriction on the rubbing. Without the method that she had taught Ximen Feng, if anyone tried to open it by force, they would only destroy the rubbing.
Bi Sheng took the items and left. She took the array book and went to look for Sima Zhi Yuan.
"Great Grandfather, this is the birthday gift that I've prepared for you. Now that I've given it to you in advance, don't come looking for me for a birthday gift when the time comes!" She placed the rubbing into Sima Zhi Yuan's hands.
"Oh, you little girl, are you afraid that you won't be able to take this out on my birthday, so you're giving it to me in advance?" Sima Zhi Yuan said disdainfully.
"Heh heh, Great Grandfather, you know me." Sima Youyue didn't explain. She really couldn't take this out on the birthday banquet.
"Hmph hmph, let me see what you've prepared." Although Sima Zhi Yuan appeared to be very disdainful, the corners of her mouth were raised, showing that she was in a good mood.
"Enough, who doesn't know that the things that Youyue gives are all good things. Just keep showing off!" Sima He Shun couldn't help but expose him.
He just didn't like this arrogant look of his, he really didn't like it no matter how he looked at it!
