Chapter 611: What is he doing here?

Today, the divine valley master happened to be doing research on an array when a disciple came to report that Wu La Li had come again and was kept outside by the new array he had set up.

He recalled the time Wu La Li had destroyed their things, so the guardsman immediately came to report to the valley master.

“Wu La Li has come? Could he have come to look for Ol’ Second? Tell him that Ol’ Second isn’t around.” Divine Valley Master said.

“I’ve already told him that, but he said that he’s not here for Devil Valley Master.” The disciple replied.

“He’s not here for Ol’ Second? Then did he say who he was looking for?”

“He said that he’s here for you.”

“Me?” Divine Valley master placed his book down, “I wonder what he has come for. Send men to send him to the guest pavilion, I’ll be there immediately.”

“Yes, Valley Master.”

The disciple retreated as Divine Valley Master kept his things away before making his way slowly to the outer valley.

Wu La Li was led across the array outside, into the guest pavilion. Then, he waited there with tea.

After a moment, the Divine Valley Master came in.

“Your Highness, I wonder what brings you here to the Divine Devil Valley?”

Wu La Li stood up, saying, “I, Li, have come this time with a request.”

“I wonder what has happened to Your Highness, that you require our assistance?” Divine Valley Master saw that Wu La Li was still rather polite, so his prejudice was lessened somewhat.

Wu La Li took out a sound stone and handed it to the Divine Valley Master. “Valley Master, you will know once you listen to this.”

Divine Valley Master took the stound stone and inserted a stream of spirit energy. Sima You Yue’s voice played out.

“Master, I’m with the Violet Water Beast clan, helping them to treat their queen. I need a few ingredients now, so could you help me check if the valley has these items? Violet Sand, Red Heart Sand… I can only stay here for a maximum of three to four months, so I definitely have to prepare these ingredients within this period of time. Master, you have to help me prepare these things and let His Highness bring them back. I’m sure they will give you the proper compensation. Master, hurry hurry hurry hurry, okay!”

Sima You Yue’s voice cut off there, and had to count inwardly as he heard her list the ingredients that she needed.

The Violet Water Clan had many treasures!

“Valley Master, You Yue said that it was possible her Master was not in the valley, and told us to look for you instead.” Wu La Li said, “I request for you, the Valley Master’s assistance in preparing these ingredients. As You Yue has said, we will be sure to compensate you properly.”

The Divine Valley Master knocked a finger on the table, then pondered for a moment, saying, “We will discuss the compensation later. We will definitely find a way to prepare these ingredients. I invite Your Highness to wait outside for a moment.”

“Thank you, Valley Master!’ Wu La Li said gratefully.

Divine Valley Master called for someone to enter.

“Valley Master.”

Divine Valley Master handed him the sound stone and said, “This are the things that Young Valley Master requires. You should prepare the ingredients based on his requests as listed in there. First check to see if we have it within the valley, and to search outside if we do not have enough. You definitely have to ensure all ingredients are properly prepared.”

“Yes, Valley Master.” That person took the sound stone, then turned to go.

“Isn’t You Yue studying in the sect outside? What is he doing in the Ninth Star Ocean?” Divine Valley Master asked.

“It’s like this…”

Wu La Li told him about how he had met Sima You yue in the outer regions, and told them about their agreement.

“I see. I have heard as well that his medicinal skills are not bad. Even Ge Lang has not stopped singing his praises.” Divine Valley Master said, “I hope that he will be able to cure your mother.”

“I believe that he can.” Wu La Li said with a smile, “in the past, those who came to treat my mother all said that they had hit a dead end. He has merely treated her for ten days, but there are visible improvements already. That’s why I believe that he will be able to cure my mother.”

“We will do our best to prepare the ingredients as soon as possible to empower him to heal your mother as soon as possible. Right now, I’ll get someone to take you to rest.”

“Thank you for the trouble, Valley Master.”

“Oh right, you should know that our valley has many arrays everywhere. If you want to walk around, you should get someone to take you. Otherwise, it would be a problem if something untoward were to happen.” Divine Valley Master cautioned.

Wu La Li thought of the last time had charged through their arrays, and was rather embarrassed. He nodded sheepishly and said, “I got it.”

Divine Valley Master called out for his men, and a disciple came in to lead Wu La Li down.

“Master.” Ying Bai Chun came in.

“Bai Chun, you’re back. How are the things you been checking up on?” Divine Valley Master asked.

“I have already found out a lead. Cloud Cave is actually in contact with people from the inner regions. It’s just that they’re extremely careful, and we have not yet ascertained who it is.” Ying Bai Chun said, “I got them to stay behind to continue the search.”

“It’s been tough on you.”

“This is something I should do as your disciple.” Ying Bai Chun said, “Master, upon my return, I saw our valley’s men wantonly getting ingredients. Has Master returned?”

“No, it’s You Yue.” Divine Valley Master said, “He has gotten men to prepare a few ingredients, saying it was very important.”

“You Yue has come to the valley?” Ying Bai Chun rather missed that rascal. Who knows how many years it had been? He wondered how she had turned out.”

“He isn’t here. It was the prince of the Violet Water clan who came. He brought his sound stone, saying that he is there to cure the queen of the violet water clan. He needed a few ingredients and sought my help to prepare them.” Divine Valley Master replied, “That brat. He ran off to the Ninth Star Ocean without a word. He’s real bold, isn’t he!”

“He’s in the Ninth Star Ocean?” Ying Bai Chun was rather worried, “That place is so dangerous, what is he doing there? He’s even gone to the violet water clan to heal their queen that even Martial Uncle was unable to. What is he doing meddling in this?”

“Aren’t you curious as well?” Divine Valley Master said with a smile, “That brat really is gutsy. He dared to make a deal with Wu La Li under who-knows-what circumstances. However, Ge Lang has said that his skills in medicine aren’t bad. Who knows, he might really be able to treat the Violet Water Clan’s queen. The Violet Water Clan is the biggest clan in the Ninth Star Ocean. If we can forge a good relationship with the Queen and King, as well as the favour of their clansmen, it will be good for the divine devil valley.

“But what if he doesn’t?” Ying Bai Chun was not at rest, “When Martial Uncle came back that time, he said that the queen had suffered grievous injuries. Although the water crystal bed was preserving her life, she had already slipped into a comatose state. You Yue is still so young. If things don’t turn out well, he might never be able to take another step out of the Violet Water Clan.”

“If Ol’ Second finds out that his obedient disciple died there, he might cause a huge chaos.” Divine Valley Master was rather worried as well.

“Master, I have an idea…”

Three months later, Sima You Yue had just finished the queen’s acupuncture. The appointed servant girl dressed her as another servant girl entered, saying that the King has called for her.

She went to the side hall, and saw that there were two people who appeared in the palace. She said with surprise, “Senior Ying? What are you doing here? And this is?”
