“Of course he hates me. I once ruined something good of his, and even let the people know how nefarious the Northern Du Clan is and tarnished their name.” Yin Lang shrugged, looking disdainful of him instead of feeling any fear from being trapped by the Northern Du Clan.
In the past when Yin Lang was wandering around outside, he had bumped into Northern Du Hao forcefully snatching a girl. He had rescued the girl, then let everyone know about how the Northern Du Clan was using women as cultivation furnaces.
Although this news wasn’t wantonly spread, the hidden families had found out about it and their already bad relationships with the Northern Du Clan had become even worse. Although they were one of the more powerful clans, they were held in contempt.
The one who released the news was now their target, and Yin Lang had naturally become the target of their hatred.
If it was not because of the fame of the fourteenth prefecture and his strength, the Yin Clan would probably have been extinguished. They were usually helpless against them, so now that they had encountered each other here, how could Northern Du Hao let this opportunity go?
It was just that Sima You Yue had foiled his plan.
“You Yue!”
Feng Zhi Xing led his men over and the Yin Clan immediately grew wary.
They had yet to recover. If the ones who came did not bear good intentions…
Sima You Yue made an action of telling them to calm down, then went to the cave and called out, “Master.”
Feng Zhi Xing entered, and saw that Sima You Yue was not injured. Only then did his anxious heart calm down.
“Did you manage to rescue them?”
“Mm. However, I didn’t have time to kill them.” Sima You Yue was a little regretful as she said it.
When the Yin Clansmen heard this, they couldn’t help but purse their lips. She was already quite amazing to be able to rescue them from the clutches of the Northern Du Clan, but she was actually regretful about being unable to kill the Northern Du Clansmen?
“Those people actually wanted to use women as cultivation furnaces!” Sima You Yue absolutely abhorred those types of people. Leaving them on the earth was a threat to womankind!
“It’s fine as long as you are fine.” Feng Zhi Xing didn’t care about the Northern Du clan. He only cared for the safety of Sima You Yue.
“Master, let me introduce you. This is Yin Lang, and this is Yin Su Su.” Sima You Yue only knew the both of them anyway, “This is my master.”
Yin Lang bowed towards Feng Zhi Xing, saying, “I didn’t think that the Young Patriarch of the Integral Moon Palace would be You Yue’s Master. Nice to meet you.”
“Even if you didn’t want to stay in Tangerine City, you shouldn’t have bothered my disciple.” Feng Zhi Xing had long since known about Yin Lang tailing Sima You Yue and warned him with an uncaring tone.”
“He he…” Yin Lang chuckled. This guy was really like a protective mother hen.
Sima You Yue didn’t think that Feng Zhi Xing would be so direct. However, she also knew that her Master would definitely know about things that involved her.
“Master, do you want to continue forward?” She held onto Feng Zhi Xing’s arm and asked.
“Since I’ve already come, how could I not join the fun?” Feng Zhi Xing asked.
Who knows, he might be able to find some treasure and give Sima You Yue a present!
He glanced at the Yin Clansmen and his meaning was obvious. Did she want to take these guys with them?
Sima You Yue glanced at Yin Su Su and the others. Every single one of them had suffered harsh injuries under the Northern Du Clan. If she left them here, they might even be killed by someone else.
Yin Lang and the others knew that the Integral Moon Palace was not a kindhearted power and didn’t want to force Sima You Yue, so he said, “We have already asked our clan for help. They just have to find us.”
“But we don’t know when they’ll be able to arrive. It will be better for you guys to come with me. Once we find them, we’ll talk again.” Sima You Yue said.
“Little Uncle, You Yue is right. The Clansmen have not come after so long, and we don’t know whether or not they’ve been entangled in something. We’re injured as well. If we encounter any enemies, that would be troublesome.” Yin Su Su said.
Yin Lang hesitated for a moment. When Sima You Yue had mentioned it, Feng Zhi Xing did not reject the idea, which probably meant that he agreed.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you guys.” Yin Lang bowed towards her and Feng Zhi Xing.
“Lets go, then.”
Feng Zhi Xing’s subordinates were quietly muttering about how their master was too giving to the Young Miss. One had to know that taking the Yin Clansmen with them would make it very inconvenient to do a lot of things.
However, as long as the Young Miss suggested it, he would have no thoughts of rejecting it.
He indulged her so much. Did he think he was her father or something like that!
The scarlet bees had long since headed inside the cave. With their direction, the group did not have to take many curved roads and could head directly inside the mine.
On the road there, Little Golden once against displayed its usefulness in finding ancient objects. From time to time, it would discover some ores hidden in the walls.
Sima You Yue handed the ores she obtained to Feng Zhi Xing and beamed, “Master, this is what your disciple honors you with.”
Feng Zhi Xing saw those ores and was secretly even more convinced when she said that she had reaped quite a bit of benefits.
“Since it is a gift given to honor me as your Master, I will accept it.” He kept the ore and did not bother about whether or not there were treasures inside.
When the Yin Clansmen saw how easily she obtained the ores, they were incredibly envious. If they had a spirit beast that was as good as Little Golden, they would have been able to gain a lot of profits as well. How would they have been plotted against by the Northern Du Clan?
Sima You Yue also gave a few of the ores she obtained to the Yin Clan. Since everyone was together, although she didn’t distribute it evenly, she could still give them some for being around.
In the beginning, they felt a little embarrassed about receiving it, however, when they saw how Little Golden would find many over and over again, they did not stand on ceremony either.
If they were really able to obtain something good from it, they would definitely give their thanks to her. Even if there was nothing good inside, they would also have a good relationship with the Sima Clan in the future.
This was different from the average mines. The minerals here were not in the ground. When Sima You Yue and the others reached the end, they were obviously lying on the ground. At the very end, when they exited a mountain, they came to an open-air mine.
Because they had found these ores halfway here, when they reached the area with the most number of ores, the area was filled with people.
Eastern Lai Clan, Northern Du Clan, Yang Clan and the Xuan Qiu Clan that they didn’t see earlier. There were also other powers that they didn’t recognise. They were all gathered on the edges of the huge mine.
All around them, mountains that were so tall that they reached the clouds surrounded the area. They seemed to be limitless.
In the heart of the abyss, there were many stone statues standing around. There were big and small ones, all of different shapes.
When the people around them saw the ores inside, their eyes turned red.
These ores were in the shape of animals, so didn’t that mean that the items inside were genuine ancient beasts! If they could obtain them, wouldn’t they have greatly profited?
“Seems like there’s no advantage in arriving here first!” Feng Xiu Jie saw everyone standing outside and chuckled when they weren’t heading inside to loot the ores.
“There’s a barrier around it, locking everyone outside.” Wu Lingyu saw the issue immediately.
“I’m guessing that they have definitely tried but they couldn’t open the barrier.” Sima You Yue glanced at the mess scattered about everywhere. At a glance, she could see that it was a result of all the attacks that had been reflected.
At this moment, the powers were gathered in twos and threes. It was as if they were deciding how to deal with this issue before deciding how to split the loot.
However, there were some people who were just born without having to worry about these things.
