Chapter 191: Toying with a princess
It was only now that Sima You Yue cast her glance towards Xi Yue Xi. She didn’t manage to see her clearly the last time, but she was truly a beauty. However, when compared to her appearance, her imposing aura was even more attention grabbing.
Xi Yue Xi looked at Sima You Yue and saw that she was looking straight at herself without being intimidated by her aura at all, so she said, “You have guts.”
“Guts are borrowed from the heavens.” Sima You Yue smiled and said, “Pretty lady, you don’t look bad, eh. Do you want to follow this little Lord to the mountain to be his lady?”
“Based on a little boy like you with little hair?” Xi Yue Xi replied, “Your hairs have not yet grown but you’re already hitting on girls?”
Sima You Yue stretched forth a finger and shook it, saying, “No no no, I’m not hitting on any regular girl, I’m just interested in a pretty lady.”
“Glib tongue!” Xi Yue Xi was not angry and said, “Since cousin said that you beat her, as her older cousin I cannot ignore it. If you kneel down and apologise to her, you can leave as long as she forgives you.”
Wanted her to kneel?
Sima You Yue smirked, “What if I don’t want to?”
“Then I can only break your legs and force you to kneel!” Xi Yue Xi said faintly without feeling as if her words were cruel at all.
“What a pity, my body was a gift from my parents and I treasure it a lot.” Sima You Yue said, “I don’t kneel to heaven or earth; only to my parents. As for your cousin, I’m afraid that’s even more impossible.”
“Don’t kneel to heaven, don’t kneel to earth…” Xi Yue Xi heard what Sima You Yue said and was stunned for a second, saying, “Truly a kid with backbone. However, this resolve will crumble in the face of power.”
“Really?” Sima You Yue saw that the opponent was unwilling to let her off so she shrugged and said, “What do I do, I really don’t want to fight against a pretty lady! My heart will hurt if I wound you.”
“Then we’ll just see who hurts who.” Xi Yue Xi said as her fingers curled into a fist and she threw it towards Sima You Yue.
Sima You Yue observed her speed as well as the sound of wind that came along with her punch and pretty much estimated her strength. She moved aside and lightly blocked her punch. After that, she retreated two steps back lightly and left the opponent’s attacking radius.
Xi Yue Si never thought that Sima You Yue would be so quick. Even while he was avoiding her, she had also changed the direction in order to grab him, but was unable to catch him at all.
“Pretty lady, ten moves. If you can catch me within ten moves, I will apologise to her. While standing!” Sima You Yue said while laughing and dodging.
Xi Yue Xi had always been stronger than everyone else, so she had never encountered someone who was actually faster than her. Because they were just chasing and dodging, they did not use any spiritual qi. As a result, right till they end, they were just relying on brute strength.
Two moves, three moves, four moves… nine moves… ten moves…
Ten movs had passed but without talking about catching Sima You Yue, Xi Yue Xi had not even managed to touch her clothes. Her speed and reaction were quick, but it could not be compared to Sima You Yue who had trained her speed and reflexes in the Sofia Mountain Range for two years.
Ten moves later, Sima You Yue had arrived at the edge of the group and said to Xi Yue Xi, who was still inside, “Pretty Lady, this Lord had something on today so I won’t stay to chat with you. Remember to move a little bit faster next time!”
She quickly left the area after she had finished speaking.
Xi Yue Xi didn’t see how Sima You Yue had managed to flash outside and her expressed turned extremely terrifying as she watched the retreating silhouette.
“Cousin, are you going to let her go just like that?” Qin Wan stepped forward and said begrudgingly.
“Are you able to catch him?” Xi Yue Xi glanced sideways at Qin Wan, saying, “That guy’s strength isn’t weak. The important thing now is the auction in a few days time, and I don’t plan for side issues to arise. We’ll naturally have our chance for revenge after the auction! Understand?”
“Yes, I understand.” Qin Wan was saying this with her lips, but dissatisfaction was still clear in her gaze as she watch Sima You Yue leave.
“Sima You Yue returned to the Sand gull army where Wei Zi Qi and the others were playing with Little Tu in the house. Seeing that she had returned, they asked, “how is it?”
“Settled.” Sima You Yue said, “However, I’m afraid that the auction has been pushed back by another two days.”
“Delayed again?” Fatty Qu was shocked, asking, “Why?!”
“The Hundred Revolutions Pill is a pill that is quickly going in extinction, a pill that defies the natural order. It will naturally arouse everyone’s interest and there will be even more things that they will want to auction for, so they need to raise more money!” Sima You Yue said, “They said that they want to push it back by two more days, and it allows me just enough time to unblock Little Tu’s meridians again.”
“Mm. The last time, you rested for a long time after you unblocked them. This time, we won’t know what will happen so it’s best to first let your spirit power be at its maximum.” Bei Gong Tang said.
“Mm.” Sima You Yue nodded, she thought this way as well.
“You Yue, do you have enough money now?” Wei Zi Qi asked.
“Enough.” Sima You Yue was extremely happy when she said this, “I sold the Hundred Revolutions Pill refining method to Ugly Person and earned sixty thousand gold coins [1]. With four Hundred Revolution Pills, I would earn at least forty thousand.”
“That adds up to a hundred thousand!” Fatty Qu said, “Why is there this sudden feeling of striking it rich?”
“Strike it rich, your ass!” Sima You Yue slapped his head and said, “I have always been rich, it’s just that it used to be in possessions. Now it’s in terms of money.”
“We should be able to obtain this Lazurite Pearl.” Wei Zi Qi said, “However, You Yue, why do you want to get this Lazurite Pearl no matter what? You didn’t seem to have much interest in it before.”
“There’s a group of people in my family that likes it, especially the boss who leads the house. I have no choice but to satisfy them .” Sima You Yue said quite helplessly.
When Mo Sha, who was in the Devil Snare bracelet, heard Sima You Yue call him the boss, he could not help but purse his lips.
There was never a person who dared to call him the boss. If it was anyone else, he would definitely have killed them with a single slap. However, why did he not feel a single drop of anger when Sima You Yue said it?
“You Yue, when do you plan to help Little Tu clear his meridians the second time?” Bei Gong Tang said.
“Tomorrow.” Sima You Yue said, “Little Tu, rest well today. We’ll start tomorrow, okay?”
“Okay.” Little Tu nodded his head. Although he was terrified by the scary excruciating pain, he could not quench his thirst for the ability to cutivate.
After that, Sima You Yue related the event where she bumped into Qin Wan and Xi Yue Xi and everyone didn’t have much to comment about it, they just said that they should leave a bit earlier to avoid bumping into them again.
Just as Sima You Yue had said, that very afternoon, the auction released news once again that the auction would be delayed by two more days.
There had never been a precedent event where the auction was delayed by two days twice in a row. Many were dissatisfied, but the moment that they heard the reason for the delay was because of the appearance of the Hundred Revolutions Pill, their dissatisfaction turned to excitement and many went to get as much funds as they possibly could, once again.
Even Xi Yue Xi, who had seen quite a bit of high grade things ever since she was young, was shocked. Her original constitution was already not bad, so if she managed to obtain the Hundred Revolutions Pill, that would cleanse and sharpen her marrows, she would be able to defy heaven one day.
“Men, come and quickly raise funds. I have to raise enough money no matter what. Also, send men to report about this matter to my father…”
