Chapter 1965 - Zhou Clan
Chapter 1965: Zhou Clan
These people were so kind.
They locked them up for over ten days and forgot about it as they went to deal with who they thought were intruders, but did they ever think that it was two different batches of men?
Later on, they understood that it was not that they had forgotten about them, but that the ones who had captured them were sent out again in a rush, and didn’t have the time to report them to their Clan. That was why they were neglected up till now.
“Clank——”
The lock was opened as Zhou Ni brought some men in. He told the ones who were locked up for ten over days and had fully recovered, “Bring them out.”
The Zhou Clan members came over to open the prison gate. Sima You Yue got up and dusted the dust off their clothes and said, “We’ll walk on our own.”
Zhou Ni didn’t want to make it difficult for her either, as he turned around and left. Those that surrounded Sima You Yue left as well.
Perhaps it was because they were too confident of their own powers and thought that these five people couldn’t escape as they were in the clan, so he didn’t even tie them up. He brought them out just like that.
They looked around the Zhou Clan.
There were mountains on one side and water on the other, with mist lingering around that reminded them of a paradise in the human realm.
“These people think they are much better than anyone. They feel that they’re different from mortal life, that’s why they want to stay in this kind of immortal atmosphere.”
“No speaking!” Someone shouted.
Yan Ya twitched his lips as he stopped talking.
Fine, who gave a damn about commenting!
Zhou Ni brought them to the living district and there were a lot of people there.
Everyone looked at them angrily. Apart from their previous criticism, they seemed more angry than before.
Sima You Yue knew what they were angry about. Xu Yu was Xiao He’s lower commander, and they escaped while they were surrounded by three layers of people. Those people wouldn’t be able to do anything to them as they were out of their territory, but they would be a laughing stock to others as they were useless and couldn’t even catch outsiders.
This was more infuriating than having outsiders!
These people and the others must be in contact, so they would be able to find out their identity if they asked them!
Zhou Ni brought them to a simple wide house with ten people inside. When they walked in, they stared at them sharply like a blade.
“Patriarch, we’ve brought them here.” Zhou Ni bowed in greeting.
“Thank you. Go and take a rest since you still have injuries and you just came back.” The old man with white beard said.
“Patriarch, it’s my fault that I didn’t have time to interrogate them after I captured them. I want to stay here to see if they will tell us any useful information.” Zhou Ni said.
“Alright, you can stay.”
Zhou Ni sat at the last seat as he shouted at the clan members who escorted the criminals, “Kneel!”
You Yue didn’t say much as they didn’t have the right to get them to kneel. Huan glanced lightly at him as the person who spoke felt numb to his scalp.
The Zhou Clan members weren’t happy. The way Huan stood looked like a guard. The status of these people must be remarkable since a guard of theirs could be so grand.
But so what if they were remarkable people? This was the Unregulated Zone. Who would dare to behave atrociously in this place?
“Who are you? Why did you intrude into our Zhou Clan’s territory? What is your motive? Who are the ones that hurt you?” Zhou Zhou, the Patriarch of Zhou Clan, questioned.
“Old Master Zhou, if you talk to us nicely, we’ll also cooperate and tell you what you want to know. If you are thinking of trying to kill us after you question us, then I shall give you a piece of advice, which is to save your energy as the people outside that keep watch are nothing to us.” Sima You Yue said.
“Are you threatening us?!” Zhou Clan’s Great Elder Zhou said.
“How is this a threat? We have nothing against each other, so there is no need to create an awful scene.” Sima You Yue shook her head, “Truth to be told, we came here by accident and we don’t have any ill-intentions towards you. Although you came to us shouting and tried to kill us, it seemed like you provided us with a safe place to recuperate. As for ourselves, we’re actually very friendly.”
They had obviously captured them with intentions of interrogating them, but they forgot about them which allowed them to stay in the prison for ten days and recuperate from their injuries.
“Hmph, a group of kids from the younger generation? How dare you negotiate with us! How bold! Do you think you can go out easily after you enter here?”
“How can we not have the courage since we’ve dared to come out?” Sima You Yue wasn’t affected by their threat at all and looked at Zhou Zhou and said, ” Patriarch Zhou said, what do you say?”
“No one in the past was able to walk out alive after trespassing into this Unregulated Zone, who are you to negotiate with me?” Zhou Zhou asked.
Sima You Yue shook her finger, “We’re not negotiating with you, I just want to choose a path that benefits both of us. You think that we’re no match for your clan, but can you guarantee that we wouldn’t use your clan as a scapegoat in a life and death crisis?”
“Just the few of you? I just have to get someone to deal with you and it’s settled.” Someone sneered as he didn’t believe what she was saying.
“Let me get this across. The injuries we have were not inflicted by anyone. It was inflicted when the spatial area collapsed.” Sima You Yue continued, “So, Patriarch Zhou, do you think I have the right to speak now?”
Zhou Clan members took a deep breath.
They heard of their situation from Zhou Ni earlier on and knew that they had critical injuries, but they didn’t expect that the injuries were inflicted when the spatial spatial collapsed.
If that was the case, they would have to reassess their power.
Anyway, who would be able to stay alive if they were in their shoes?
Initially, they thought they were just some intruders, but they didn’t expect that they were some elites.
Zhou Zhou assessed Sima You Yue and thought that she looked familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had met her.
“Did you really get thrown into the Unregulated Zone when the spatial area collapsed?”
“That’s right. Otherwise, who would be seriously injured despite having no signs of battles in our surroundings?” Sima You Yue said.
Zhou Zhou looked towards Zhou Ni.
“Yes, at that time, only five of them were lying on the ground with no signs of fighting.” Zhou Ni answered.
With such serious injuries, there was no way that they would appear on their own. If there were a fight, there would be traces of it around.
“Hmph, who knows if this is a trick to get into our clan.” Someone guessed.
The Zhou Clan members were about to believe her but found it reasonable when they heard from that point. What if they were trying to trick them?
Sima You Yue rolled her eyes, “Are you stupid? Wouldn’t you take the opportunity to kill them if an outsider came with such serious injuries? Only idiots like you would think that way!”
