Chapter 1904: A lofty position
When Di Zhe heard about what happened in the palace, he wanted to rush over to protect Sima You Yue but Di Yi stopped him.
Di Yi said, “Master, Princess You Yue will be able to handle it. Look.”
Di Zhe lifted his head and looked over and happened to see the tribulation clouds gathering above. He suddenly laughed, “This brat really isn’t someone who eats a loss!”
“After blowing this situation up, nobody will dare to provoke her anymore.” Ghost Master saw the tribulation clouds and found it amusing as well. This reaction of her was too exaggerated!
“Pay close attention to the happenings in the palace.” Knowing that Sima You Yue wouldn’t suffer a loss, Di Zhe relaxed. He ordered his men to keep an eye on the palace before resuming his work on other things.
Once news of what happened in the palace spread, Di Zhe laughed out loud with joy, “Beautifully settled! I’ve been fighting with Ghost Concubine for such a long time, but I’ve never managed to cause a single bit of harm to her. She merely entered the palace a short while ago but caused Ghost Concubine to lose a layer of skin already. Hahaha, not bad. Not bad!”
“Princess is really powerful!” The Di Clan guards were all pleasantly surprised. She was so much stronger than they were!
“But, Master, Princess caused harm to Ghost Concubine and even made her stay in the dark palace for three days. Won’t she take revenge on Princess the moment she emerges?” Di Liu was worried for Sima You Yue’s safety.
“Don’t worry, with Grandfather around, and the fact that this issue was blown up, she won’t dare to touch You Yue for the time being. Unless she really wants to go through a real lightning tribulation.” Di Zhe said, “This lightning tribulation is really great. I saw her struck quite terribly before, but now it seems rather useful. Did you guys record what happened back at Sheep City?”
“We did.” Di Liu said, ‘At that time, it was Di Wu who suggested it. He said that everyone could watch it together once we were back.”
“Then you should make copies of this and distribute it. Let those people see with their own eyes what happened at Sheep City. let them see what a lightning tribulation that really moves heaven and earth is like!”
“Yes, Master!”
“First bring the recording stone over for me to take a look. You group of jerks, why didn’t you show it to me since you had it!”
“Hehe, isn’t it because you went to see the princess the moment you returned? We were so excited that we forgot about it.” Di Liu saw that Di Zhe was about to explode, so he hurried added on, “I’m going to get the recording stone from Di Wu.”
Recently, the hearts of those from the Imperial Palace were filled with terror of the lightning tribulation. In the past, they felt like the lightning tribulation was something far away, but now they felt like it was so close by.
Two days ago, they just experienced a small lightning tribulation. They didn’t think that news of what happened in Sheep City would spread throughout the city within these two days. That terrifying lightning and horrifying aura immediately filled their hearts with fear that caused their hairs to stand on end. When they recalled the tribulation cloud from that day, a new sense of fear for Sima You Yue rose in their hearts. They definitely, definitely could not provoke her!
Not only were they not to provoke her, they had to tell others not to provoke her either! What if she got upset and evoked the lightning tribulation? They would be dragged into it!
However, Sima You Yue personally didn’t know how high the others had elevated her in their hearts, to such a frightful extent that adults would turn pale and children would cry upon hearing about her!
Three days later, Ghost Concubine led Yu Hao out of the dark palace. The palace maids and guards immediately went forward to support the both of them back to their own palaces.
Yu Hao was originally weak. After staying in the dark palace for three days, he was like an ordinary person who would hunger and feel the cold without being able to use spirit energy to ward it off. When he came out, he was hungry, thirsty and cold. He was completely weak.
He had never been punished like this in his entire life!
However, comparing it to his previous state, he was still rather well off. Ghost Concubine was the one who had been tortured for the three days spent inside.
In the beginning, in order to save Yu Hao from the lightning tribulation, although she was rather powerful, it was still heaven’s lightning. After getting struck, she would have suffered quite serious injuries. Furthermore, the wounds inflicted by the lightning tribulation could not be treated by the average pill. That was why, her condition after staying in the dark palace for three days after receiving those injuries was as expected.
What made her even more furious was that this news had already spread around the entire Imperial Capital. Not only did they know that Yu Hao wanted to kill Sima You Yue, but that she had used the lightning tribulation to retaliate. They even knew that, in order to protect Yu Hao, she had put herself into a very sorry state.
That was the only thing. When those people saw the lightning tribulation in Sheep City, they were terrified of Sima You Yue. if she acted against her again, she might evoke public rage. That was why she had no way to touch her at this moment!
She lay on her phoenix bed, so enraged that she broke her own fingernail. She had never been in such a pathetic state before. This had all been caused by that bitch!
“Your Highness, do not let your anger harm your body.” Ghost Concubine’s head palace maid, He Xiang An, comforted her, “That Sima You Yue may be able to evoke the heavenly tribulation, but she’s just a brat that’s wet behind the ears. She won’t be able to do much.”
“It’s precisely that inexperienced brat that caused me the biggest trouble of my life!” Ghost Concubine raged, “I refuse to take this lying down! If I don’t kill her, I’ll never be able to get rid of this hatred in my heart! I’ll also let down Dou’er who died.”
“Your Highness, do not lose your propriety for the sake of a young child.” Blue River walked in from outside. When he saw her pale face, his eyebrows furrowed lightly, “How did you get so badly injured”
“Your Highness protected His Highness from the lightning tribulation and then had to remain in the dark palace for three days. She has already healed since then. When she just came out, she was more terrifying.” He Xiang said.
“That Sima You Yue!” Blue River’s eyes burned, “It seems like we cannot leave her alive.”
“What do you want to do?” He Xiang asked, “We can’t do anything right now!”
“I know.” Blue River said, “I won’t do anything to her while she’s in the royal palace, but she won’t stay in there forever. Once she heads out, who knows whether or not she’ll stay alive?”
“Do you have any ideas?” Ghost Concubine asked.
“I heard that her relationship with Yu Ke Luo’s past maids and guards is pretty good?” Blue River asked.
“Yes.” He Xiang nodded, “It’s because His Highness beat up the people in her palace that she even beat up His Highness.”
“That’s easy, then! I remember that there were a few of Yu Ke Luo’s guards and palace maids who went missing after going to complete a mission. It seems like someone captured them. If we are able to find those people and release word of it, she’ll definitely leave the palace.”
“But she can evoke the lightning tribulation. There’s no use no matter how many people we send.” He Xiang said.
“Those people are all useless wastes. If we act this time, we need to use a few eccentric talents. How can the average person suffice?” Blue River said confidently.
Thinking about those people below, Ghost Concubine was filled with confidence again. “I’ll leave this to you then.”
“Don’t worry. I will take revenge on your behalf.” Blue River smiled lightly in reply.
He Xiang was like an idiot as she watched him smile. Although she had seen it many times, she couldn’t withstand his smile. It was a pity that he only smiled for Ghost Concubine.
Blue River examined Ghost Concubine before saying, “At least you didn’t hurt your core. You should rest well and ignore everything else. However, you have to teach His Highness properly. If not because he was too rash, you would not have had to suffer so.”
