Chapter 1889 - Sending A Declaration Of War
Sima You Yue led her group with her as they slowly went to sheep city. As for those people who would occasionally appear and follow them, she pretended like she didn't see them as long as they didn't appear and block their way.
It was really such a rare peaceful time!
They sat on their flying beasts and they were a little unsettled. They didn't know whether or not they would be able to return this time.
"Father, eat some fruit." Sima You Yue took out some fruits and offered it to everyone before giving a portion to Murong Hui.
"You Yue, I know that you've always been a child with a lot of plans. Can you tell me why we're not escaping?"
Sima You Yue took out a spirit fruit and stuffed it into his hand and then sat down beside him, saying, "Father, you've seen Huan and Black Shadow's battle abilities."
"They're very powerful, but there are so many of those guys. They just have to use a few of them to stop them." Murong Hui said.
"Father, back then, I was able to hold back all the Ghost Clans entering the Human Realm at Fair Eastern City. Naturally, I'll use the same method to let them know what it means to stop before going too far.If they're able to stop and no longer cause trouble for me, everyone will be able to relax. If we cannot come to a consensus, then I do not mind causing another Fair Eastern City incident." Sima You Yue wanted to settle this issue as well to save her from any future troubles that would keep occurring. If they couldn't come to a consensus, then she would use force to get them to see the reality of the situation.
Murong Hui watched her and thought about that spirit beast of hers that could invoke the lightning tribulation, and suddenly understood her thought process.
If those people insisted on doing anything, she could invoke that lightning tribulation. At that time, with so many of them, who knew what the lightning tribulation would turn into. She also had Little Purple, so that lightning tribulation wouldn't be able to harm her that much. However, the same couldn't be said for those people.
He recalled the last time he saw her caught in the lightning tribulation and thought of the lightning that struck his body and couldn't help but break out into cold sweat.
He observed a moment of silence for those people in his heart. This little girl really didn't usually act, but once she did, she would shatter their bones!
"That's why, when the time comes, Father, do not stand near me. If anything happens, I'll die of regret. At that time, just bring a few men and wait to receive me outside." Sima You Yue smiled at him. Murong Hui felt like he was looking at a little devil.
However, after knowing her plans, he did not request again to stay by her side. At that time, those people would not only har her, but it would make it difficult to hide.
He calmed down and was now in the mood to eat the fruits. He took a big bite, as if he was trying to get rid of his worries. At the same time, he did not forget to scold her, "This child, you couldn't have told me all of this earlier? You made me worried for nothing for so long."
"You didn't ask me." Sima You Yue chuckled.
"You-" Murong Hui was helpless. However, he liked seeing her this way. Having a trump card was so much better than not!
When they arrived in Sheep City, Sima You Yue did not enter. Instead, she stopped outside the city. Murong Hui and the people from Vast Region were dumped behind her.
When those from Sheep City received the news that Sima You Yue had come to Sheep City on her own accord and was even camping outside, they were incredibly surprised.
After that, their shock was replaced with rage. This was provocation, pure provocation! Could it be that she felt that she really was unrivaled and could defeat over ten thousand of them?!
"Patriarch Peng, you're the first point person. Tell us what we should do?"
"There's still two more days before the set date. Since she has come to our front door, it's an open provocation and clearly a slap to our faces! If we let it go, how will we still show our faces in the ghost realm?!"
"Hmph, since she dared to come, we'll make sure she won't leave alive!"
"That's right!"
"Although there are still two more days to the set date, it seems like many of our people have already arrived. Are we going to wait two days or head out right now?"
Should they kill Sima You Yue? The answer was a definite yes. However, when should they kill her? That was uncertain.
Head out now? Or wait till two days later?
Before they managed to make their decision, Sima You Yue made it for them.
"Patriarch, our people have been beaten back!" A youth dashed inside and came to the centre of the discussion hall. He panted heavily as he repeated, "Patriarch, the people who have been keeping surveillance on Sima You Yue have been beaten back!"
"Beaten back? They were discovered?" Patriarch Peng asked.
"Yes, apart from Xiang Zi, not one of them has returned." The youth said.
"He is not the strongest of them all, how could he be the one who returned."
"It seems that Sima You Yue let him return to make his report."
"Then aren't you going to hurry and bring him in!"
"Yes! Yes!"
Very quickly, the one called Xiang Zi was brought in. However, he did not walk up on his own, but was carried up by someone.
"How did you get so heavily injured?"
"Pa- Patriarch, Sima You Yue kept me alive, saying that she wanted me to return to tell you to go to Black Goddess Mountain on the outside of the city if you wanted to look for her." Xiang Zi said weakly as he fainted.
Patriarch Peng waved his hand and the two men who carried Xiang Zi in, brought him out.
"It seems that she knows about our plan."
"We were not secretive when we carried this out and many powers know about it. It's not strange that Sima You Yue found out about it."
"So you're saying that she truly does know about it but still came to our doorstep to provoke us."
"But why did she set up camp outside the city gates instead of choosing to come in?"
"Of course she wouldn't dare to come in! More than ten thousand experts have gathered together here to kill her. Even if you lent her a hundred thousand guts, she wouldn't dare to enter this place!"
"She thinks that entering the city will result in her being trapped, and that not entering the city will prevent her from being surrounded?"
"That might be the case!"
"Since she has already come to provoke us, then what are we waiting for?! Patriarch Peng, there are already so many of us here, there's no need to wait for two more days. Let's head out of the city today!"
"That's right, let's go! This Sima You Yue has killed so many of our people. This time, we definitely have to kill her in Black Goddess Mountain!"
"That's right! We have already lost more than three hundred men at her hands. We definitely have to use her blood to sacrifice to our clansmen!"
"Us as well! We have already lost a few hundred men!"
These people only thought of the fact that their own people had been killed. However, they completely overlooked the fact that, if they had not sent those men to try and kill her, how would they have lost so many of them?
"Now that you mention it, those two people by her side are really strong. Their origins are strange as well. We don't know where they're from!"
"It really is strange. Once we meet her, we definitely have to make her tell us who her backer is!"
Sima You Yue heard what they were saying from her scarlet bees, and smiled faintly.
"What's up?" Wu Lingyu peeled a tangerine for her and gently fed it to her.
Sima You Yue ate it from his hand, then said, "I just heard a funny joke."
Wu Lingyu pretty much guessed it as he smiled lightly, "Aren't those people experts in it? They will probably come over soon.. We should finish up our preparations."
