Chapter 2123 - Snow Mountain
Chapter 2123: Snow Mountain
Sima You Yue did not feel like playing around for now. She looked at Mo Yu and asked, “Really?”
“Before I came to look for Nai He, I had just returned from Ghost Realm.” Mo Yu said, “I heard that Ghost Concubine is currently pressuring the General to hand you over! She said that she can’t let a clash between the two clans happen because of you!”
“Hmph, that Ghost Concubine. She has finally gotten a hold of something that can be used against me.” Sima You Yue laughed icily. The aura that she suddenly released gave Mo Yu and Qin Qin a huge shock.
They originally thought that she was really as calm as she always portrayed herself to be!
“You Yue, what are you going to do?” Qin Qin wasn’t very familiar with what Sima You Yue was going through, but she could still imagine the severity of the situation.
“My cousin will not be defeated by Ghost Concubine so easily. I have to finish what I am doing now before I can return.” Sima You Yue said.
Although she was anxious, she had already reached this stage and could not just give up halfway. She could only hope that Di Zhe would be able to hold on.
Because she was concerned about something now, Sima You Yue no longer had the mood to tarry any longer. Once Mo Yu was done, the three of them returned.
Wu Lingyu noticed that Sima You Yue was in a bad mood when she returned, so he pulled on her hand and asked her what was wrong.
“Qing Hun has already begun fighting with Ghost Realm.” Sima You Yue said, “He’s calling out for Ghost Realm to hand me over and Ghost Concubine is pressuring Cousin. Grandfather hasn’t come out from seclusion, and I’m worried that Cousin will not be able to hold on.”
“Di Zhe is truly powerful. Also, Ghost King will not allow Ghost Concubine to grow too powerful and will give Di Zhe his power. It will not be a problem for him to withstand this.” Wu Lingyu comforted her.
“I think the same way, but my heart is still restless.” Sima You Yue said, “I hope that this trip will be smooth so that I can hurry and rescue my mother and hurry to return.”
“Mm. I will get someone to pay attention to these things. If anything happens, they will inform me immediately.”
“Alright.” Sima You Yue nodded. She heard Mo Yu cry out, then looked over to see that Qin Qin was suspiciously getting closer to the mouth of the fountain.
Mo Yu cried out just now because she saw Qin Qin keep away some bones along the way.
She subconsciously looked at Nai He, who had a smile on his face, but his eyes held a faintly discernible trace of worry.
Qin Qin was quick and immediately arrived by the side of the fountain. She took out two jade bottles, filled up a bottle quickly, then returned.
“Here.” Qin Qin handed the bottles to Sima You Yue and Mo Yu.
Mo Yu kept the bottle away and asked, “Why did you keep the bones?”
“I’m used to it.” Qin Qin said, “And it was convenient. I don’t care about the places that are too dangerous.”
Sima You Yue knew what she was thinking. The places in the past were carefully selected to lay the bodies to rest. This was her way of showing respect to them.
“Thank you.” She raised her glass to Qin Qin.
“Qin Qin, what about me?” Nai He hurried over to ask, “You always used to give me a bottle too.”
“I already gave yours to Lady Boss.” Qin Qin glanced at him lightly, “Anyway, you’ve already drunk so much of it. You won’t die by drinking once or twice less.”
“Qin Qin! I am the one who is your boss! Show me a little respect, otherwise, I’ll dock your pay!” Nai He cried out.
“If you want to dock it then go ahead! Did you not already dock a lot of it before?” Qin Qin huffed before turning around and returning to her tent.
“Just you wait! I’ll start docking it from this month onwards!”
“Deduct it then, go ahead! I’m leaving after this month anyway.” Qin Qin’s lazy voice sounded from inside the tent, “You’ve already deducted it the past few hundreds of years, what’s to fear about this one month? Ah, I’m finally going to be free!”
“Qin Qin! I haven’t given you my approval to leave!”
“Pfft- I don’t care whether or not you agree!” The flash of a barrier shone outside the tent and no voice was heard again from inside.
“I’m so angry, I’m angered to death!” Nai He stopped his feet in anger, “You guys tell me, what kind of subordinate is this?”
Old Jiang was already used to this scene, so he did not reply to Nai He. he just turned around and returned to his tent.
Sima You Yue smiled at Nai He, then pulled Wu Lingyu and returned to their tent. She had no desire to interfere in their issues.
The night passed peacefully without issue.
On the morning of the second day, when Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu went out, she saw Nai He and Qin Qin fighting about something in the distance. Nai He was still miffed about what happened the night before while Qin Qin was still reacting lazily. No matter what Nai He said, she did not change.
As for Mo Yu, she just stood outside the tent watching the scene silently. When she saw Sima You Yue emerge, she even smiled at her and greeted her.
When Qin Qin and Nai He saw Sima You Yue return, they stopped fighting and walked back, one in front of the other. Of course, Qin Qin was walking in the front and was in a decent mood. Nai He, who was walking behind her, had an expression as dark as coal.
“If you’re done packing, we can continue rushing ahead.” Qin Qin said.
“Alright.” Sima You Yue did not ask what they were talking about. After she was done packing, everyone continued to set off.
Because they wanted Qin Qin to lead the way, the journey was relatively smooth. The poisonous animals in the valley seemed to have been beaten up quite badly by them the past few years, so they stayed far away and left quickly when they saw them. It was like they had seen a ferocious viper!
When she saw this scene, Sima You Yue laughed for a long time.
Just like that, they stayed in the valley for more than a month, but there was no trace of the Divine Medicine at all. In order to save time, they did not even harvest anything decent that they found.
“It is possible that we have already gone past the place where the divine medicine grows.” Qin Qin said, “That’s the only place that’s left.”
“Where?”
“Right there.” Qin Qin looked over at a few snow mountains towering in the centre of Hades Valley, “If the Divine Medicine really exists in Hades Valley, then that’s the only place it could be in.”
Sima You Yue had a sense of fear when she heard her mention those few mountains, she asked, “Does the Snow Lady of the rumors really exist there?”
“I don’t know whether or not the Snow Lady exists, but there is definitely a very powerful guy who lives up top. It’s not easy to get there, even I could only make it to the foot of the mountain. There was not a single time where I intentionally climbed up there.”
“Then are we still going?”
“Old Jiang has gone there before, which is why I got him to lead the way that time.” Qin QIn said.
That meant that they had thought of it long ago, that the Divine Medicine would not be in the usual places in the mountain valley. They had walked around for more than a month because they wanted her to give up as well as ascertain that the divine medicine was not there.
“There are many natural attacks on the snow mountain, but I’ve never met the Snow Lady.” Old Jiang said, “WHen we head up in a moment, bear in mind that you are not to use your spirit energy to attack anything that you can see.”
When they arrived at the foot of the snow mountain, Sima You Yue called out Little Seven. Because she was very sensitive to treasures, she might be able to sense its position.
Little Seven was very happy that she was able to come outside. She pulled on Sima You Yue’s hand and attentively surveyed the Snow Mountain. She hoped that she would be able to sense something.
However, they had already searched the snow mountain once through without a single piece of news or trace of the divine medicine.
Could it be that it really wasn’t here?
