Insanely Pampered Wife: Divine Doctor Fifth Young Miss
chapter-710

Scarlet Lake was the largest lake in the dark forest. It was called the Scarlet Lake because the water was scalding hot all year round.

As per the description given by the Xuan Yuan Pavilion, the water temperature was extremely high. It had an accumulation of the fire and water spirit energy, and the inside of the water was filled with minerals. After soaking for such a long time, it reached the state it was today.

However, because there were many sacred beasts around them, there were many groups of them. This meant that humans rarely dared to come here. As such, nobody dared to use this place despite the benefits it brought.

At this moment, the lake was covered with a blanket of thick fog. The people outside were totally unable to see the inside clearly.

Sima You Yue kept Halcyon away before the members of the Sage Pavilion noticed him. She flew towards the shore with Bei Gong Tang.

“We can’t fly across the front. The entire pace has been covered by a barrier.”

The people who came later on were unable to reach the lake either, and had no choice but to land beside it. It was no wonder those who arrived earlier could only stand by the shore. There was no one who wanted to fly over.

Shortly after Sima You Yue and a few others landed, Shi Chen and the ten brothers arrived. They were blocked outside the barrier, same as everyone else.

“This barrier..” Ni An Yi stretched forth a hand to feel it before saying confidently, “This isn’t a natural barrier, nor is it one made by a spirit beast. It’s been created by a person using an array.”

“An array?” Shi Chen flew to the sky for a look, “It’s true. There’s a giant protection array here this time. I wonder what kind of person would actually be able to create this kind of aray.”

“With this here, we won’t be able to enter for the time being.” Ni An Yi said.

“What’s the rush? We can’t enter, but neither can anyone else.” Feng Kai wasn’t worried. Since nobody was able to enter, this wasn’t about who could enter first.

On the other side, Sima You Yue and Sima You Lin had already come to the same conclusion.

“The person who set up the array is really powerful. The array actually turned into a barrier. This is better than your average protection array.” Sima You Lin sighed, “The average array can be broken, but this barrier array needs to be broken before it can be taken apart.”

“If someone really set up a protection array here, wouldn’t this mean that someone was the first to reach this place?” Wei Zi Qi asked.

“Yes.” Sima you Lin said confidently, “Furthermore, the person who set up the array is currently inside. It’s just that the fog is blocking us. As for this array, it can only be moved from the inside.”

“He’s in there? The auspicious beast is in there as well. Wouldn’t that mean that person would be guaranteed to get that auspicious beast?” Fatty Qu cried out.

Everyone around them heard what they were saying, and their expressions were ugly. They had thought that they were the first to arrive, but who would have expected that someone would have been the first to reach the auspicious beast.

“Roar-”

A painful cry came from the heart of the lake, and the eyes of everyone on shore burned with rage when they heard it. So what if the other person got it first? As long as he didn’t form a contract with it yet, there was still hope.

“This aura… this getting cleaner and cleaner… the auspicious beast is transforming!” A middle aged youth cried out excitedly. His eyes, which were not initially excited, started to glean, his interest towards the auspicious beast piqued.

“Transforming? Who knows, maybe it would obtain some kind of bloodline!”

“Is this barrier to protect it? I heard that auspicious beasts are extremely weak when they’re transforming.”

“The person inside must have expected that the transformation of the auspicious beast would attract a lot of people, so he set up a barrier.”

“No matter what, the auspicious beast and human cannot possibly remain in there forever. Once they come out, we’ll use the opportunity to snatch it!” Nalan Lan’s senior said.

Nalan Lan watched as more people started to arrive, and furrowed her eyebrows with frustration, saying a little worriedly, “More and more people are coming. Have our reinforcements arrived? Is Master Uncle coming or not?”

“Junior, relax. Our reinforcements have already entered the dark forest a few days ago. They should be here any time now.” Ma Lin replied, “Master Uncle said that he would find two others. He would cut a hle through space to get here when the time came. He won’t delay. Whenever Master Uncle does something, he’s always done it properly.”

“Mm. I haven’t met Master Uncle more than a few times. I naturally wouldn’t understand him like you do.” Nalan Lan said, “It’s good since you say that things will be fine.”

Suddenly, a portal was cut open through space, and a short and black bald man emerged with a few beautiful ladies clad in black.

“An elder from One Mountain Sect has arrived.” Ma Lin said with a grave expression when he saw the black baldy.

“What kind of sect is One Mountain Sect? Are they a first-ranked one? Why does it look like Senior is afraid of them?” Nalan Lan had only been up here for a few years, and wasn’t familiar with everything that was happening.

“The One Mountain Sect isn’t a first ranked sect, but they are extraordinary. They aren’t that powerful, but stand unwaveringly in the inner regions. The elder from One Mountain Sect is a real weirdo. He always does abnormal things. His character is strange as well, and likes every beauty that he sees. He’ll take down anyone he sees that is taller and more handsome than he is. He might take his anger out on us once he finds out that we’re Master’s students.”

“He isn’t weak either, right? Since he was able to cut a hole through space. I wonder who’s more powerful between him and Master.” Nalan Lan mused.

“Of course Master is more powerful, but this guy has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. His power in battle is average, but has managed to survive till this point.” Ma Lin really disliked this ugly baldy, and it seemed like he wasn’t even willing to look at him.

As for Sima You Yue, who was listening to whatever Ma Li was saying, she looked at him a few more times and realised that he truly was quite ugly. However, the black clothed ladies were truly beautiful. They were just a little too ice cold, as if everyone who they looked at owed them eight hundred million dollars.

This was a prime example of beauty and the beast!

The black baldy stood in midair and looked at the many people dotting the shore. His thick lips parted, “Oh my, who would have thought that there would be so many people here? Beauties, tell me. Under which banners have these people come?”

“Sage Pavilion.”

“Kong Valley.”

“…”

“The ten great evils.”

Each lady spoke a sentence, and quickly pointed out the ten different powers.

Sima You Yue followed the gaze of the second lady when she mentioned the Kong Valley. She really did see a disciple from there. She raised a head and glanced over at Kong Xiang Yi, eyes questioning.

“They are the disciples that initially followed me to take my revenge. At that time, they followed me, but I didn’t like it, so I let them act on their own. Who would have thought that those guys would secretly run over here.” Kong Xiang Yi said.

Sima You Yue dashed beside her and said quietly, “Xiang Yi, in a moment, send them news and get them to leave. Tell them not to involve themselves in the happenings here. If possible, they should leave as quickly as they can.”
