It was only when Sima Youyue asked this that Sima You Ran remembered why he was looking for her.
He took out an invitation card from his bosom and said, "The Union Alliance has invited some people to tonight's banquet in order to celebrate the end of the competition between the first-rate powers, as well as to have a good start for the various unions' gathering tomorrow. Since you didn't go, we brought your invitation card to you. "
Sima Youyue took the invitation card and read through it. When she saw the location, her eyebrows raised as she said, "At the Alchemist Guild?"
"Mm. It's said that this banquet was first suggested by the Alchemist Guild, so it will be held in their guild." Sima You Ran said, "We don't get along well with the Alchemist Guild, so you don't have to go."
"Alright, I'm not interested in such banquets anyway." Sima Youyue said.
"Then I'll head back first." Sima You Ran said.
"Alright, thank you, Brother San." Sima Youyue walked him out.
In the afternoon, Sima Youyue received another invitation. This time, it was from someone else.
"Jade invited me to a banquet?" Sima Youyue looked at the invitation and was surprised that Jade would invite her.
"I don't know. The person who delivered the invitation handed it to the guard and left. I just happened to pass by and brought it back for you. "Fatty Qu said. "Youyue, are you going tonight?"
"It says that she has something to discuss with me. It seems that she has something to discuss with me. If that's the case, then go ahead. If you're bored, you can come back. "Sima Youyue said.
Why was Jade looking for him?
"We didn't receive an invitation, so we can't go. You have to be careful when you go alone. It's best if you stay with your brother and the others." Fatty Qu warned.
"I know."
In the evening, Sima You Yue, Sima You Ran and the others went to the Alchemist Guild together. Because they only invited those from the younger generation who had participated in the competition, Wei Zi Qi and the others could only stay at home.
Originally, they knew that Sima Youyue would not attend the banquet, but when she suddenly appeared, everyone was a little surprised. When they heard that she was going to attend the banquet, they did not think much about it and brought her along.
"When the Li family was challenged, they were almost defeated. I didn't expect them to win the last round. Otherwise, they would be a second-rate force now. Thinking about how we still have to see them tonight, I'm a little unhappy. "Sima You Yang said.
"You can turn a blind eye to it." Sima You Lin closed his eyes and rested, not even looking at him.
"That's the only way." Sima You Yang said helplessly. After that, he looked at Sima You Yang, saying, "You yue, didn't you say that you weren't going? Why did you change your mind?"
"I received an invitation from Jade in the afternoon, saying that she had something to discuss with me. I didn't know what it was, so I decided to go and take a look. After all, we know each other. "Sima Youyue said.
Sima You Lin opened his eyes and glanced at her. His eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything and closed them again.
The beast carriage brought them to the Alchemist Guild on time. Under the guidance of the servant girl, they went to the place where the event would be held.
At this time, many people had already gathered. Most of the people from the other clans had come. They all raised their wine cups and chatted in groups of three or five.
Sima Youyue held her wine cup and chatted with Sima You Lin in a corner. After a while, a servant girl came forward, saying, "Young Master Youyue, my family's Young Miss invites you to come over."
Sima Youyue recognised this person. She was Jade's personal servant girl. When she saw that she had called for her, she didn't have any suspicions and stood up to follow her.
"I'll go with you." Sima You Lin felt a little uneasy as he stood up and said.
"I'm sorry, Young Master You Lin. My family's Young Miss only invites Young Master Youyue over." The servant girl said apologetically. After that, she looked at Sima Youyue and said, "Young Master Youyue, please come with me."
Sima Youyue nodded at Sima You Lin and followed the servant girl out of the venue.
Sima You Lin watched them leave and went back to his seat alone.
Sima Youyue followed the servant girl to the back of the Alchemist Guild. Because she had never been here before, she didn't know if the servant girl was leading her in the right direction.
After walking for ten minutes, she saw that the servant girl was leading her in a more and more secluded area. She stopped and asked, "Your family's Young Miss is the Alchemist Guild's Young Miss. Her courtyard can't be so secluded, right?"
The servant girl smiled, saying, "My family's Young Miss is not meeting you in her courtyard. She has some things she wants to say to you, so she specially chose a secluded place. We'll be there soon. "
Although Sima Youyue was suspicious, she still followed her. After a few minutes, they arrived at a secluded courtyard. There was a pavilion in the courtyard with some dishes and a jug of wine.
"Young Master Youyue, please wait in the pavilion. My family's Young Miss will be here soon." The servant girl left after speaking.
Sima Youyue walked into the pavilion and saw the dishes on the table. Her lips curled into a cold smile.
"Looks like someone purposely lured me here!" She said softly. Li Mu, who was on the other side of the courtyard, felt his heart skip a beat. He secretly laughed at the mechanism in his hand.
"Whoosh — —"
The stone floor under her feet suddenly opened and she fell down.
"You yue!" An anxious voice called out from the courtyard. Sima Youyue didn't even see who it was before she fell into darkness. In the darkness, she felt someone jump down before the stone floor closed.
The hole below was very deep. It was close to a hundred metres deep. Because the stone floor above was closed, it was pitch black below.
"Chi — —" In a moment of desperation, she released a ball of fire. When she saw the ground, she quickly adjusted her body and landed steadily.
After a few seconds, another person also landed.
"You Lin?" Sima Youyue saw who it was and said with surprise, "Why are you here?"
"I saw you leave and felt that something was wrong. So I secretly followed you. But when I saw you fall, I followed you." Sima Youyue said.
"Thank you." Sima Youyue said with a smile.
With the help of the fire, they looked around and realised that this was a two metre wide stone cave. The walls were covered in moss. It seemed that this was a mechanism set up before.
"The moss below our feet is a little strange." Sima Youyue said.
"Eh?" Sima Youyue wanted to take a closer look at the moss when footsteps came from above.
Sima Youyue closed her eyes and sensed, saying, "Li Mu, it's actually you!"
"Hahaha, Sima Youyue, you didn't expect it, right? It's me!" Li Mu laughed from above, "Aren't you very capable? How did you become my prisoner as well? "
"Jade's servant girl has been bribed by you." Sima Youyue thought of the servant girl who brought her here. She knew that she was Jade's personal servant girl, so she followed her. She didn't expect that she was already Li Mu's person.
"Your brain is really good. It's a pity that your brain can only be used until today." Li Mu said.
"You want to imprison me in such a small cage?" Sima Youyue narrowed her eyes and shot out a dangerous light.
Wait till she goes up, she will definitely teach this Li Mu a lesson!
"Don't underestimate this place. These stones are incomparably hard. Even if a spirit paragon came, they would be able to break it in a short time." Li Mu said, "I know you have a spirit paragon level spirit beast, but a few seconds is enough! I'll send you on your way now … "
