Chapter 2200: Aren’t you afraid of getting into trouble?
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Sima You Yue wasn’t threatened by him, she snorted coldly: “You didn’t do anything to them? That’s actually true, you really didn’t do anything, because you just stood by idly and watched.”
“Even if we just stood by and watched, you can’t just kill us like this!” A woman cried.
They just stood by the sidelines, it was nothing at all. She couldn’t hurt them just for that reason!
“Really?” A sneer appeared on Sima You Yue’s face: “What if I insist?”
“Aren’t you afraid of causing trouble for yourself?”
“Why would I be afraid? Although I don’t like trouble, I have never been afraid of trouble. Besides, although you haven’t done anything, you have been watching the fun and hoping that my beasts will get beaten to death, then watch me get beaten to death, right? But who knew their Master would have
exceeded your expectations and drag you into it, so now you’re making a fuss. When you were watching the fun, did it cross your mind that you will end up in the same position and be watched by others?”
“Sima You Yue! Even if we didn’t help before, you can’t blame us for that! Who doesn’t play it safe on this continent? Will you get involved when you see others being bullied?” Someone yelled.
“Does that mean you can cheer on the sidelines when you can see my beasts are going to be killed?” Sima You Yue’s words became sharp: “Haven’t you noticed that I have released the others who didn’t cheer?”
Only then did they realise that not everyone had been detained here, and that the people who were detained were the ones who had applauded and cheered earlier. Those who were simply watching the fun on the sidelines had continued to do so.
It seemed that she was determined to deal with them!
“You shall enjoy the feeling of approaching death slowly! If there is a next life, remember not to kick a man when he is down!” Sima You Yue finished speaking, then she Little Eleven and went outside with Wu Lingyu.
‘As soon as they had left, the ancient battle souls inside began to move. There were too many people for just Blacky to deal with, everyone should work together.
The combat power of the people who were locked inside wasn’t weak. However, under the attack of the ancient battle souls, they soon lost the strength to ward off the blows.
A force flew over from the middle of the city and struck the space that had been sealed off. When the people inside felt that the surroundings had weakened, they escaped quickly. Sima You Yue watched this scene without any movement. Wu Lingyu stood by her device and also didn’t stop them.
A figure emerged from the sky and the surrounding people saluted him. Sima You Yue and him looked at each other and neither of them moved away in a hurry.
“although those people are in the wrong, you have already taught them a lesson. This matter shall end now.” The man said.
“You are the City Lord here, Zhao Rui Xiang.” Sima You Yue asked.
“Yes, I wonder if Miss Sima can do me a favour.” Zhao Rui Xiang said with a smile.
“We are not close, why should I do this favour for you?” Sima You Yue said straightforwardly, without any intention of doing him any favours.
“You came here to look for your disciple, not to fight. It is better to do kind deeds than to make enemies.” Zhao Rui Xiang said.
“You know my purpose for coming here?”
“Everyone in the world knows you are looking for your disciple. Although my news in Clear Bridge City is a little behind, I still know the important things.” Zhao Rui Xiang smiled, his eyes were steadfast. She was here to look for Mu Si!
Sima You Yue was wondering if he was going to use this to threaten her when he spoke again: “Why don’t we make a deal?”
“What deal?”
“You spare their lives today and I will inquire about your disciple’s whereabouts for you. How about that?” The conditions that Zhao Rui Xiang had put forward were indeed attractive.
He knew that she had arrived here and had been following her situation, so he knew that Mu Si was not here now. However, since she was here, it meant that there was something related to him. It was also likely that it was something she knew.
‘When he saw that Sima You Yue appeared a little reluctant, he continued: “Killing these people won’t do you any good, but if I help you pay attention to your disciples affairs, and if he comes here later, my news will definitely be faster than yours.”
‘That was indeed the case. As the City Lord, the news travelled fastest to him naturally. If he could help her keep an eye out, it would naturally be much better.
“Alright, I agree.” With a wave of her hand, the ancient battle souls were put away and Blacky returned to her side in human form.
The people who had surrounded them disappeared, and those people breathed a sigh of relief. They left hurriedly after they bowed to Zhao Rui Xiang.
“I wonder if Miss Sima would like to visit the City Lord Manor?” Zhao Rui Xiang asked.
Sima You Yue only hesitated for a couple of breaths before she agreed and followed him to the City Lord Manor. After they left, people from the City Lord Manor came to clean up the wreckage at the teahouse.
In the future, no one would try to deal with Sima You Yue and the others again.
Sima You Yue followed Zhao Rui Xiang to the City Lord Manor and arrived at the reception hall.
She carried Little Eleven and sat down on a chair, then she asked: “City Lord Zhao, what do you want to tell us?”
Little Eleven was lying in her arms, the incident this time had really scared her. Even though some time had passed, she was still lying in Sima You Yue’s arms and refused to leave her no matter what.
Upon hearing Sima You Yue speak, she twisted in her arms and found a comfortable position. Sima You Yue accommodated her shifting so that she was more comfortable.
Zhao Rui Xiang watched Sima You Yue, she quietened down after she spoke, as if the question wasn’t asked by her, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart: “How do you know I have something to tell you?”
“A guess.” Sima You Yue said, “If I guessed correctly, this matter is related to my disciple, am I right?”
If it wasn’t related, why would he have come forward and interfered in other’s affairs? Although on the surface, he had stood up for those people, in fact, it was to establish a relationship with her so that he could invite her to the City Lord Manor.
“It is related indeed.” Zhao Rui Xiang said.
“Then tell me, why are you looking for me?” Sima You Yue said, “You know it’s useless to lie.”
Zhao Rui Xiang hadn’t expected Sima You Yue to be so sensitive and had understood the meaning of his words immediately. A bitter smile appeared on his face gradually: “This is not a matter that we wanted to involve you in, but we need your help. Come and look at this.”
He took out a box and placed it beside Sima You Yue, then he asked: “What are your thoughts on this matter?”
