Chapter 2100: Desolation

Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Sima You Yue was momentarily shocked. This…was someone trying to rob them the moment they entered the Abyss of Hell?!

She and Wu Lingyu turned around and saw more than a dozen ruffians walking towards them intimidatingly.

“It’s the first time I’ve encountered a robbery since I’ve grown up. It’s quite fresh.” Sima You Yue was a little excited as her eyes sparkled.

“Indeed, it’s really a fresh feeling.” Wu Lingyu had never been robbed before, to dare to rob them, it was a kind of courage!

Just don’t know if these people were ready to die.

“Hand over all your spatial artifacts, and we’ll spare your life! Hurry up, don’t let us say this another time!”

Sima You Yue smiled: “Really? The last person who wanted my life paid a heavy price. Are you sure you want to follow suit?”

“Little girl, you can’t sprout big words casually, be careful that the strong wind will cut your tongue.”

“Then let’s see who’s tongue will be cut!” After Sima You Yue finished speaking, she directly attacked those people.

Teleport, assassinate, teleport, assassinate again. The speed was so fast that they were all killed without even seeing her figure and technique clearly.

From the beginning to the end, Wu Lingyu didn’t make a move.

Sima You Yue delved her divine consciousness into the boss’ sea of ??consciousness and read his memory.

“With this little strength, I feel too embarrassed for you to come out and rob, and lose your Grandfather’s face!” She let go of the person, and the corpse turned into black smoke and dissipated.

“The soul trapping technique taught by Mo Yu is good.” Wu Lingyu said.

“I think it’s good too.” Sima You Yue said with a smile, “These people couldn’t stay in the Soul Region and were forced to come to the Abyss of Hell. They haven’t been here for a long time, so they don’t have much desirable information. .”

“It doesn’t matter if they don’t, we will naturally know when we enter the interior.” Wu Lingyu said.

“Yeah.” Sima You Yue wasn’t disappointed either, things like getting important news when Soul Region would not happen often. “The Southern Cardinal Divine Seal is in Mu Lan’s hands. We don’t know what Mu Lan’s attitude is now. Now we can only go over and see the situation.”

“Are we heading to the Imperial Capital now?” Wu Lingyu asked.

Sima You Yue looked in the opposite direction to the Imperial Capital, and said quietly, “No, let’s go to another place first.”

Wu Lingyu saw her face sinking instantly and knew where she was going.

Two months later, Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu came to a barren mountain. They were blocked from entering the mountain with a barrier.

There was no vegetation nor a single creature on the scorched black land. It can be said that everything was silent. For some reason, the temperature here was extremely high, and even standing on the mountain, one could feel the scorching temperature.

“This is the place where Mother is being suppressed at, it’s so desolate.” Sima You Yue murmured, “It’s so hot, Mother was locked up in such a place for more than a hundred years, how hard it must have been.”

“It’ll be over soon.” Wu Lingyu took her by the shoulders and comforted her.

“Yes, very soon, no matter what, I will get the Southern Cardinal Divine Seal!” Sima You Yue clenched her fists in determination.

“Do you want to go in?” Wu Lingyu asked.

“Is it possible? But I don’t dare to attack this barrier, if I hurt my mother, it will be bad.” So, it’s better that they don’t meet yet.

“Try it. Your Grandfather can go in, I think it should be possible.” Wu Lingyu walked forward, and a barrier stopped him. He reached out and touched the barrier, which did not attack him.

It seems that this barrier was aimed at stopping people, not hurting them.

Wu Lingyu held Sima You Yue with the other hand, not knowing what he did, Sima You Yue only felt a dazzling white light suddenly appear, and she closed her eyes subconsciously. Then she felt her body fly.

When she opened her eyes, the two had already entered the barrier.

“Cough cough—”

Wu Lingyu coughed twice, Sima You Yue saw that his complexion was very bad, and asked him with deep concern, “Lingyu, how are you?”

Wu Lingyu didn’t hide his situation, and smiled weakly: “This barrier should be connected to the seal, so it is relatively powerful. But it’s alright, it’s within the range I can bear.”

“Do you want to go to the Spirit Pagoda to recuperate?”

“No need. I don’t know what danger will be here. I’m worried about leaving you out here alone.” Wu Lingyu refused.

Sima You Yue was moved, grabbed his hand, and took him into the Spirit Pagoda: “You heal first, anyway, since we are already here, what’s a few more days?”

She took him to Elder White and asked Elder White to have a look at him. Elder White gave him a little essence, and then let him meditate under his tree.

“You’re here to recover, I’ll go and talk to Father.” Sima You Yue pressed him to the ground and sat down, “Don’t worry, even if it’s for your peace of mind, I won’t go out.”

“Alright.” Wu Lingyu thought that there were many dangerous places in the Abyss of Hell, and it is really not good for him to be injured. And she said so, so she wouldn’t run out alone. Thinking of this, he felt relieved and began to concentrate to heal his wounds here.

Sima You Yue went to Sima Liu Xuan, who was currently reading a book with his back facing her. Seeing his white hair floating and thinking back that he was trapped outside the ghost city for decades in order to find her mother, his black hair turned into silver strands yet he couldn’t even see her mother. Her heart ached.

Thinking about it now, what he did at that time was really stupid, but it made tears well up in her eyes.

Sima Liu Xuan sensed that someone was coming, and when he turned around, he saw her tearful eyes. He frowned slightly: “Wu Lingyu bullied you?”

“No.” Sima You Yue wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, “How could he bully me?”

“What happened? Were you wronged outside?” Sima Liu Xuan put down the book with a serious look on his face, as if someone had bullied her, he wanted to go out and clean that person up.

Sima You Yue walked over, sat down next to him, looked at him, and said with a smile, “Father, we’re finally going to see my mother.”

“What did you say?!” The long-awaited day was finally coming, and Sima Liu Xuan couldn’t believe his ears.

“We are already in the place of suppression, and it should be only a few days away from the centre where Mother is.” Sima You Yue explained, “But I haven’t obtained the Southern Cardinal Divine Seal, so I can’t rescue Mother yet.”

“Your mother...you...” The news was so shocking that he didn’t even know what to say.

“Wu Lingyu was injured when he entered the barrier, so we came here to recuperate first.” Sima You Yue knew what he wanted to know, and explained: “My Grandfather didn’t say anything about the situation here, so I don’t know what to expect later but currently there’s no danger so here I am to tell you first.”

“Good! Good!” Sima Liu Xuan said and looked at Sima You Yue with relief, “Thank you for your hard work, it’s been hard on you.”

Although he didn’t see everything that had happened to her, he knew how much she had gone through all these years.

Sima You Yue took his arm and put her head on his shoulder: “As long as I can save my mother, it’s not hard on me.”
