Sacred City. The entire city was built like a palace, and it was a white palace. Sima Youyue's first impression was that it was pretentious.
Zong Zheng Han Yue's appearance was very useful here, those who saw her had to bow to her. All she had to do was smile and nod at them.
"Saintess, you've finally returned." A maid ran over.
Sima Youyue recognized that this was one of her personal maidservants, Gu Xi. She had left Gu Xi behind in Sacred City when Sima Youyue went on a secret mission.
"What's the matter?" She imitated Zong Zheng Han Yue's tone and spoke coldly.
"This servant tried to contact you before, but I couldn't. I thought something had happened to you." Gu Xi said worriedly.
Sima Youyue paused and glanced at her. "You know that I'm on a secret mission, so it's not convenient for me to contact you. What's there to be surprised about? "
"This servant knows her mistake." Gu Xi lowered her head and said.
"Yes. Let's talk when we get back, "Sima Youyue said and turned to leave.
"Oh, isn't this our new Saintess? Why are you in such a hurry to come back? Do you miss our Pavilion Master? " A strange voice came from the side. Sima Youyue turned around and saw a woman in a white dress with peach blossoms embroidered on the hem. She was surrounded by a group of people.
She searched through Zong Zheng Han Yue's memories and quickly found out about this person's identity and the conflict between her and Zong Zheng Han Yue.
Tao Xue Er, one of the girls who competed for saintess with Zong Zheng Han Yue last time. She had a high chance of winning, so much so that she called herself a saintess. Who would have thought that the final Saintess would be Zong Zheng Han Yue. Although he was kept in the General Pavilion in the end, he had always been against Zong Zheng Han Yue.
Moreover, she always thought that Zong Zheng Han Yue could become the Saintess because she had an ambiguous relationship with the Pavilion Master, so she always looked for opportunities to run on Zong Zheng Han Yue.
If it was Zong Zheng Han Yue herself, she might have argued with Tao Xue Er. But at this time, Sima You Yue was a fake. She had no interest in the intrigue between these women, so she just glanced at Tao Xue Er. She didn't even say a word before she turned and left.
"Eh? Did this woman have a sex change today? He actually left without saying a word. " Tao Xueer looked at Sima Youyue's back view in astonishment. She had prepared a long conversation with her.
Now, she felt like she had punched cotton, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Young Miss, why lower yourself to the same level as this kind of person." The maidservant on the side said, "Wait until her reputation is ruined at this grand meeting. Let's see if she can still be arrogant in the future. This kind of person who doesn't have a family backing her up, once she's rejected by the sect, she's nothing. "
Only then was Tao Xueer happy. She praised, "You're right. Let's just wait and see! "
When Sima Youyue returned to her residence, a group of maidservants rushed out to welcome her.
"Lady Saintess."
Sima Youyue glanced at them, thinking that Zong Zheng Han Yue really knew how to enjoy life.
"Gu Xi, come with me. The rest of you can leave."
"Yes, Saintess."
Sima Youyue brought Gu Xi into the house. She asked, "Did anything happen in the city recently?"
"It's about the same as when Saintess left. But recently, it seems like many people with higher status have returned. It seems that Holy Son has returned too. "
Sima Youyue's breath tightened. Holy Son? Wasn't that Wu Lingyu?
He's back? Why didn't she know?
She suppressed her restless heart and made herself sound calm. She asked, "Didn't he not return for a long time? Why would he return at this time? "
"He said that the Pavilion Master asked him to return. It should be for this meeting. "Gu Xi said.
"Mm, is there anything else?" Sima Youyue asked.
"Everything else is about the same as before. There's nothing special." Gu Xi said, "Oh, right, there's one more thing. I heard that Holy Son brought back a woman. That woman is very liked by the Pavilion Master. She relied on the relationship between the Pavilion Master and Holy Son to be very arrogant in the sect. "
"He brought a woman back?" Sima Youyue suddenly felt that the blood in her body was surging. There was a primitive force that was about to explode.
"Yes." Gu Xi saw her face change. "Saintess, you …"
Sima Youyue knew that she overreacted. She didn't deny it. She coughed twice and said, "Don't tell anyone."
Gu Xi immediately understood what she meant. So Saintess liked Holy Son too! She nodded and said, "I won't tell anyone."
Sima Youyue then asked a few other questions. Gu Xi answered them one by one. Because her tone and understanding of the situation was the same as before, she didn't think that the person in front of her wasn't Zong Zheng Han Yue.
At this time, a white paper crane flew in. Zong Zheng Han Yue looked at it and said to Gu Xi, "I'm going to see the Pavilion Master."
She had to face what was to come. She also wanted to ask Wu Lingyu why he didn't contact her when he came back.
She went to the huge palace in the city. There weren't many people here. Those who could enter were people with status.
She walked into the spacious hall. There was only a middle-aged man sitting on top. That man had ordinary facial features. Because of the holy aura he exuded, it was more comfortable to look at. But after glancing at him, she lowered her eyes and didn't look at him anymore.
"Han Yue greets Pavilion Master." Sima Youyue followed Zong Zheng Han Yue and bowed.
Qiu Chi didn't open his eyes and didn't speak. He let her do that.
After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Han Yue, you didn't handle the matter well this time."
"Han Yue knows her mistake. Please punish me, Pavilion Master." Sima Youyue didn't explain. Because there was no point in talking to Qiu Chi.
Qiu Chi opened his eyes and said, "That side is very angry. Tell me, what happened?"
"It's like this. After I arrived there, I went to check on the selected girls. After confirming that there were no mistakes, I went to see them according to Pavilion Master's instructions. But I waited there for two days and no one came. When I went back, those girls had already been rescued. "Sima Youyue said," Pavilion Master, could it be that they did it on purpose? If I had been there, those women wouldn't have been rescued. "
Qiu Chi stared at her for a while and said, "No, but they must have found something. That's why they gave up on meeting you. You didn't bring that thing to them? "
Sima Youyue took out a black box. Although she was curious about it, she didn't touch it in order to not arouse suspicion.
Qiu Chi waved his hand and the box flew into his hand. After confirming that the box wasn't opened, his expression became better.
At this time, a guard's voice came from outside, "Greetings to Holy Son. Pavilion Master is meeting Holy Daughter. You can't enter without orders. "
