Sima You Yue watched Li Mu leave and her eyes flashed, but she remained silent.

The sky had already turned dark by the time they finished pitching camp. Sima You Yue walked a few circles around their campsite and would occasionally throw a few small stone down. After that, she returned to the front of their campfire and threw a red stone inside. She inserted a bit of spiritual qi into it and a white ray of light immediately started twisting and turning. It drew a circle and five stars on the ground.

“Protection array!” Jade saw the flickering ray of light that was sucked into the ground and was shocked. She looked at Sima You Yue and asked, “You’re an Array Master?”

Sima You Yue didn’t deny. After she ascertained that there was no problems with her array, she said, “There will be no problems this way.”

Sima You Lin watched as she set up the array and sighed in his heart about how this guy had really improved a lot this two years.

He was an array master as well and understood arrays. By observing the rays of light as it was being set up, he could observe how strong the array was.

Although Jade was not an Array Master, she also understood this reasoning. When she saw the blinding rays of light just now, she knew that this array was very strong.

“I really never thought that you would actually be an Array Master!” Jade saw that Sima You Yue remained low key no matter what he said or did, and did not have a single trace of arrogance that was commonly found in Array Masters.

Sima You Yue smiled.

“You Yue, there should be fish in this river. Want to fish up a few and make roasted fish?” Fatty Qu said.

“Okay! In any case, there’s nothing else to do here.” Sima You Yue said.

And so the group of them started fishing at the side of the lake, laughing and cursing without an ounce of worry or fear. Jade was completely speechless as she watched.

“Jade Jade, come, let’s go and fish together!” Sima You Qing came over and pulled her. She was stunned for a moment, but went over too.

“Let me tell you, You Yue and Fatty Qu make really delicious things. I ate the roasted fish they made once, and its flavor made you want to swallow the fish, bones and all!” Sima You Qing spoke while handing Jade a fishing rod.

Ever since they had been with Sima You Yue, they were all used to bringing along all types of equipment with them.

“You all usually still eat this kinds of things?” Jade said with surprise.

“We eat! Why don’t we eat!” Sima You Lan ran over and said, “Like Fatty said, it’s boring enough to cultivate all day, if we don’t cook a bit of delicious food to reward ourselves, we would not be living life well. Do you not usually eat these things?”

Jade shook her head and said, “If I eat, I usually eat Spirit Fruits and the like. I rarely eat things like this.”

“Then you’re missing out on a big joy of life.” Sima You Lan said, “In the past, I didn’t really like to eat, but I’ve been influenced by this group of guys.”

As she spoke, she she pointed at Sima You Yue, Fatty Qu and the others with her chin.

“Really a person who makes one curious.” She sighed when she saw Sima You Yue laughing loudly and fishing with everyone else, and thought about how he could actually create such a powerful array despite being so young.

“Mm, he’s not only one who makes you curious, he also makes you mad!” Sima You Qing said.

“Makes you mad?” Jade looked at her with confusion.

Sima You Lan smiled and replied, “That’s right, this guy was born to beat others. Don’t bother comparing yourself with him about anything. If you compared, you’ll just be angered to death. Looking at him will cause you to die of anger.”

“Is he very powerful?” Jade asked.

“For him, you can’t look at him as if he were any ordinary person.” Sima You Qing asked, “Just treat him as a monster!”

“Eh-” Jade looked at Sima You Yue with curiosity. How much of a perverse genius was he that he would be taken as a monster!

“Ah, I’ve hooked one! I’ve hooked one!” At this moment, Fatty Qu cried out loudly as the group ran over to help him reel in his rod.

“Ah, I’ve hooked a fish as well. It’s a large fish.” Sima You Le cried out loudly at the same time.

“Fourth Bro, I’ll come help you!”

“Ah, me too, someone quickly help me take a fishing net.”

“Wait, they’ve taken the net.”

“What do you need a net for, just pull it up!”

“Ah, mine got hooked but ran away!”

Sima You Qing ran over as well, asking, “How did you all manage to hook one? How come we don’t have any?”

Jade saw them messing around without bothering about hierarchy and status, and was extremely jealous.

Inside their guild, she had never seen them act this way. Everyone always contested on strength and very few people would actually work together to improve.

At the end, they fished many fish and group of them settled the fish and then gave it to Sima You Yue and Fatty Qu to roast.

Everyone had eaten and drunk their fill when it was very late, and even Jade, who had normally never eaten things, ate an entire fish.

“Whoa, so full. Being full means a food coma, so everyone should go and sleep.” Sima You Yang shouted at everyone.

As a result, everyone all slowly stood up and went back to their tents. Jade asked, “Is no one staying to keep watch?”

“No need, You Yue has already scattered some medicinal powder and activated the array. Anyone who doesn’t open their eyes and attacks us would be knocked down before we even met them.” Sima You Qing said.

Jade thought of the array that Sima You Yue had constructed and felt the same way. This kind of array was merely protecting such a small lake, so there was naturally no problem. As a result, she returned to her tent to sleep.

On the morning of the second day, Sima You Yue who was sitting on the bed cultivating, opened her eyes. She pondered about it for a moment and still decided to get off the bed.

“Why did you come out so early?” She walked over and asked when she saw the person standing beside the lake.

“Aren’t you early as well?” Jade asked when she saw Sima You Yue.

“I woke up because I heard someone wake up.” Sima You Yue said, “Don’t tell me you Saint City people all wake up so early?”

Jade shook her head and didn’t speak.

“I can see the worry in your eyes. Who are you worrying about?” Sima You Yue asked.

Jade never thought that Sima You Yue would be so astute in her observations, and nodded her head, “I’m worried about my parents. In the past, we would always be together whenever these things happen. Right now, we’re no longer together and I’m worried whether anything may have happened to them.”

“DIdn’t you say that the Saint City would always activate a great array? Since this is the case, what’s there to worry about.” Sima You Yue said, “If you want to talk about being worried, your parents should be the ones worried about you who are outside!”

“That’s true.” Jade said. “I’m afraid that they will come out and look for me if they see that my brother disciples and I haven’t returned.”

“You’re no longer a kid and they know that the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain isn’t safe. With Saint City closed up, how would they still come over?” Sima You Yue said, “Your parents would think this way too.”

“Mm, if only.” Jade said.

“That’s right, I heard your disciple brother say that something occurred at the Saint Pavilion and caused your Brother Han to go over. Do you know what happened?” Sima You Yue asked.

Jade shook her head, saying, “It’s been more than half a year since I left Saint City, so I’m not too clear on the things happening at Sage Pavilion. Are you very interested towards it? I am pretty familiar with the Holy Daughter, if you want to know anything, I can help you ask when I get back.”

“No need, no need.” Sima You Yue quickly waved her hands, “I’ve never had any encounter with the Sage Pavilion, so I’m merely a bit curious.”

Of course, that outwardly pure yet inwardly evil Wu Lingyu had directly been overlooked by Sima You Yue.

Furthermore, that overlooked person was currently inside Saint City, thinking about over and over, thinking about how he could cast off the people there to go and look for her.
