The two of them looked at Wu Lingyu without saying anything. They were trying to guess his identity. He was actually able to discover them in such a situation and even lock onto their position.
"Why are you following her?" Wu Lingyu asked. "If you don't tell me, then …"
His gaze was cold, and the other party could clearly feel the dense killing intent.
"We're here to protect her," one of them said, indicating that they were not hostile.
They saw how he interacted with her just now, and it seemed like their relationship was not ordinary. If they did anything to him, Sima Youyue would definitely find them.
"Who asked you to protect her? Xuan Qiu He? "
"No, Young Master doesn't know that we're here. We are here on the orders of the Great Elder. "
Hearing that it was not someone sent by Xuan Qiu He, Wu Lingyu heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. It seemed like that guy hadn't realized that Youyue was a girl.
"Go back and tell Xuan Qiu Lai that he doesn't need you to protect him in secret." Wu Lingyu said, "If you really want to, then protect him openly. If I see you again, don't blame me for taking action. "
The two of them glanced at each other, then directly disappeared into the air, returning to report to Xuan Qiu Liang.
After Wu Lingyu finished dealing with the situation here, he returned to the inn.
In the small courtyard where the Xuan Qiu Clan was staying, Xuan Qiu Lai was listening to the report of the two guards.
"To be able to lock onto your position so accurately, that person must be very powerful." Xuan Qiu Lie pondered. "He doesn't want you to follow him?"
"He said that if you want to protect her, you have to do it openly. You're not allowed to follow her in secret." A guard said.
"Hmph, you want to borrow the power of my Xuan Qiu Clan? In your dreams! " Xuan Qiu Lie said angrily, "He's just a small alchemist. Does he really think that he's that important?!"
"Then what should we do?"
"Since they don't allow us to follow them, then let's call them back." Xuan Qiu Lai said, "Since she has experts following her, then we don't have to worry. By the way, has the person who went to investigate her returned? "
"Not yet. So far, the only information we have is that she's behind the city. "
"Send the information to Young Master as soon as you find it. Also, get someone to make a copy for me."
"Yes, Grand Elder."
…
In the following days, Sima Youyue would go to the spirit pagoda to refine pills whenever she was free. She managed to refine quite a number of grade-7 pills. More than ten days were equivalent to more than a year's time. She had spent more than half of her time here.
This was the longest time she had spent researching pills in the past few years. After refining all the seventh-grade pills in her hands, she felt that she had faintly touched the threshold of an eighth-grade alchemist.
In this one year, Han Miao Shuang and Su Xiao Xiao were also inside, practicing on their own and discussing from time to time.
Wu Lingyu had also been accompanying Sima Youyue. With the other half of Mo Sha's soul, he could give her more professional guidance. This was also the reason why she was able to reach the threshold of the eighth rank so quickly.
On this day, Sima Youyue and Wu Lingyu were refining pills in the alchemy room. One was refining pills while the other was observing.
"Puchi —"
The sound coming from the pill furnace and the smell of burning in the air indicated that the pill refining had failed.
Another failure! This was already the third time she had failed today.
"Is it that hard to refine an eighth-grade pill?" She sighed, "Or is there something I didn't notice?"
"Your skills are already very good. You can definitely try to break through to the eighth rank." Wu Lingyu said, "You keep failing now. It should be related to the pressure on your mind. You've already been practicing here for half a year. Refining pills for a long time has made your mind tense. Why don't you go out and relax. "
Sima Youyue thought about it and agreed. Practicing all the time might not be good.
"How long until the pill competition?"
"Three more days."
"So fast!"
"Yes. There are many people here now. It's more lively than before. "Wu Lingyu said," You can go out and take a look. "
"Where are you going?" Sima Youyue looked at him and asked.
"The people from the Sage Pavilion are here." Wu Lingyu said, "That old man is coming this time too. I'm afraid that the substitute won't be able to hide from him."
His original plan was to let the substitute take his place to watch, but he didn't expect that old man to come too. Although the substitute looked like him, a fake was still a fake. It could fool others, but if he wanted to fool that old man, he was still lacking.
"He's coming too? He won't do anything to you right? "Sima Youyue was a little worried. That guy was eyeing his body covetously.
"Of course he can't do anything now. Don't worry. "Wu Lingyu came to her side and hugged her. He kissed her on the lips.
"Then I won't be able to see you for a few days?" Sima Youyue hugged his neck with both hands, "When will you settle the matter with the Sage Pavilion?"
"When I don't need this identity anymore." Wu Lingyu said, "I still need this identity to roam the continent."
"The disciple of the Divine Devil Valley's Valley Lord can also be your identity." Sima Youyue pouted.
"There are some things that if done with that identity, it will bring trouble to the Divine Devil Valley." Wu Lingyu explained, "That old man isn't here. I can't bring a lot of trouble back for him."
"Speaking of Master, is there still no news of him?" Sima Youyue thought of Old Man Devil. He left after knowing about Feng Ru Yan. She hadn't seen him for so many years.
He said that he was her Master, but he was comfortable being a hands-off shopkeeper.
It wasn't just him. Xu Jin, Feng Zhixing, and every other Master felt that her self-learning ability was excellent. They left after leaving some books, and no one taught her properly.
If not for the Spirit Pagoda, she didn't know what she would be like now!
"Although I don't know where he is, his life jade is with me. It's fine, which means that he's fine. You don't have to worry too much about him. He hasn't been reliable for so many years. "Wu Lingyu said.
"That's good." Sima Youyue said, "This Master's life jade is with you. The other Master's life jade is … Sigh, I don't know how Master Xu, Teacher Ge and Principal Yuan are doing."
"You, you're so busy. Why are you worrying so much." Wu Lingyu said, "If something happened to them, there would be people from the Academy to settle it."
"But, Master's life jade isn't with me." Sima Youyue said, "When Eldest Senior Brother left, he took Master's life jade with him."
"The Jiang family will be participating too. I think Kang Jun-chul will be there too. Who knows, your Eldest Senior Brother might be there too. "
"Really?"
"I'm not sure." Wu Lingyu said, "Let's go out and walk around. You'll meet a lot of people. Who knows, there might be something fun. Let's relax and compete properly. "
"Alright."
Sima Youyue wasn't interested in going out for a walk, but she really needed to relax. So she brought Little Seven out for a walk.
