2190 The perfect timing to return(Chapter preview)

Qi Qi was captured just like that. The men that he had brought with him were completely unable to resist. They were captured by the Alliance.

Qi Qi hung in midair with no way to breathe. He could feel that his mind was growing duller.

Suddenly, he felt his brain hurt and Sima You Yue's consciousness entered.

It was a pity that he knew of no useful information. There was only a man in a black who dealt with him alone and gave him these Qi Spirits. As to why he did it, it was simple. If he could succeed, they would let him form a contract with an ancient beast.

The carrot and the stick approach. This was the result of it.

Sima You Yue let him go and those from the Alliance came forward. They brought everyone down and there wasn't a single drop of blood in the courtyard. From her perspective, this whole thing was a farce.

However, the Presidents did not think this way. If not for the fact that she had rushed over in time, the Alliance would have been in trouble. Even without mentioning the commanding tokens, blood would flow like a river.

"You Yue, why would you return at this time?" Xia Chang Tian walked over to ask.

It really was… the perfect timing to return!

If she had returned too early, the black robed men would have obtained the news and would definitely not have so easily asked Qi Qi to act. They would then not know who the traitor was. If she returned too late, that would have been worse. She might never have been able to see them again. Who knew that she happened to return just before Qi Qi acted, rendering the black robed men unable to change their plans. It also leaked who their spy was.

The saying was true. Coming back was good, but not better than coming back at the right time!

"I came back when I was done with my things." Sima You Yue replied, "Who knew that I would see such a farce when I returned."

It was very dangerous and urgent just now, but she actually called it a farce. The Presidents were helpless.

"You've gotten stronger." Xiang Yang said, "Is it because of Supreme Fifth Spirit Senior on the other side?"

"Right. I absorbed that energy, which also helped them to solve their problem." Sima You Yue said.

"Great! It's great that you have improved!" Xia Chang Tian laughed twice, then cried out, "You brat! You've just reached two hundred years old, but you're already a middle ranked Paragon. You're too outrageous! Can your body handle such quick improvements? Can your mental strength and senses keep up? It won't harm you, right?"

Once he said this, the other Presidents started to worry as well.

It was good that she grew powerful quickly. However, if her body could not keep up, it wouldturn into a bad thing.

"I haven't felt anything off about me so far." Sima You Yue said.

At this time, she was able to give thanks for the many years of getting struck by lightning. After getting struck again and again, her body was a lot sturdier than the average person. There was completely no need to worry that her body would not be able to withstand a huge force. At the same time, the heavenly law that came with the tribulation lightning was slowly accumulating in her body, so she had no need to worry that her senses would not be able to keep up. With the soul arts that Wu Lingyu had obtained for her and the experiences she gained in the Ghost Realm, she had no need to worry that her soul would not be able to keep up.

With this and that, her body was not uncomfortable in the slightest. Seeing it now, everything that she had gone through seemed to have been in preparation for this!

However, she still had some questions in her heart.

She was this powerful at this age, and it actually was mostly not due to her own cultivations.

Most of it was inherited. Like from Ancestor, Emperor Qing Dao and so on.

Logically, in a situation like this, it was only normal for her to feel uncomfortable. However, she felt like these powers had always been hers. She did not feel out of sorts at all.

Also, with everything, it was as if they were always meant to be. It was like they had been planned for a long time ago.

This was simply too strange!

She was a little puzzled, but nobody could give her an explanation.

The biggest internal demon had been weeded out, and brought with it a few small fries.

Cerulean City returned to its original state.

Sima You Yue planned to leave after staying here for a few days. The black robed men had made such a big move today, so she wanted to go and confirm some suspicions that she had.

Knowing that she wanted to leave, the Presidents did not stop her. Xia Chang Tian and He Chen Dong came over to send her off and passed her a box.

Sima You Yue guessed what was inside without needing to open it.

"It's not a good idea to leave this with me, right?" She didn't want to take it.

The Alliance's chief commanding token, similar to the Alliance's master token. With this token, even if the Alliance was pledged to the Alliance leader in reality, everyone in the Alliance had to obey her order. This power was more than just a little huge!

"What's not good about it?" Xia Chang Tian stuffed the box into her hands, "This is something that us old folks came to a decision about after discussion. This is best suited in your hands. It will be safe!"

"That's right." He Chen Dong agreed as well, "In the past, the black robed men planned to attack every guild. The guild formed an alliance successfully, which allowed us to become more powerful. However, it has also made us more outstanding as a force. This time, it was Qi Qi. The next time, it will be somebody else. We have no power to defeat the Qi Spirits.

The next time it happens and you are not around, it will be dangerous.

"Alright then." They had already said so much, so she would just hold on to it in the meantime. It was better for her to take it than for the black robed men to steal it away. "I'm going off, then."

"Go ahead, be careful."

Sima You Yue nodded. She took out Little Throne, sat on it and left.

A few days later, she appeared in the tenth state, Declaration City.

The last time she came here, she went to the Xuan Qiu Clan. Xuan Qiu He had come here to pick her up and bring her to the Xuan Qiu Clan personally.

Now that she was here again, her heart was in dismay.

If that was true, could they get along with each other like they used to?

She entered the city and found an inn to stay in. This inn was not very far from the courtyard that Xuan Qiu He had prepared for her back then. This inn was also considered to be one of the properties belonging to the Xuan Qiu Clan. Perhaps the Xuan Qiu clan already knew that she was staying here.

Would Xuan Qiu He know? Would he come personally to look for her? Once he met her, what kind of expression would he have?

She lay on the bed and she didn't know when she fell asleep.

Night came, and the night was boundless and infinite.

She ran into this boundless night, no limit to her destination, and behind her was like an abyss. She could hear herself breathe and could hear the sound of her sweat falling.

"Ughh-"

After exhausting all of her energy, she tripped over something and crashed to the ground, unable to climb back up.

"Sister, keep on running!" A raspy voice came from all around her. She raised her head, her eyes filled with dread and fear.

"Who are you?" She struggled to sit up. She looked all around her but there was not a single trace of a person.

"Are you still going to run? If not, then just die!" The voice was gleeful.

When it saw the terror in her eyes, it was extremely satisfied.

"Don't… don't kill me…" She cried out.

"Rip-"

A hand came out from nowhere and pierced into her chest. She raised her head only to see a pair of attractive but gloomy eyes.

"Rip-"

That hand ripped itself out from her body and she heard the dripping sounds of fresh blood.

"Ahhhhhh!!!"
