Now that Sima You Yue had asked him, Sima You Ran remembered why he had come looking for her in the first place. He took out a written invitation and said, “To celebrate the successful closure of competitions, and for the future generations of guild members, the Master’s Guild is inviting people to a banquet tonight. Because you weren’t there, they had requested that I pass the invitation to you.”

Sima You Yue took the invitation and took a look, but as she saw the location, she raised an eyebrow. “At the Alchemy Masters Guild?”

“Mmhm, since the Alchemy Masters were the ones who organised the banquet, it will be held at their organisation.” Sima You Ran said. “We don’t get along with them, so don’t have to go.”

“That’s good, I don’t have an interest in such banquets anyway.” Sima You Yue said.

“I’ll go back first then.” Sima You Ran said.

“Alright, thank you, Third Brother.” Sima You Yue said as she walked him out.

In the afternoon, Sima You Yue received another invitation, but under someone else’s name.

“Jade is inviting me to a banquet?” Sima You Yue looked at the invitation, and was surprised that she would be invited.

“I don’t know, the person who sent the invitation had just dropped the invitation and promptly left. I happened to pass by, and so I brought it here.” Fatty Qu said. “You Yue, will you be going today then?”

“She wrote that she has something that she would like to discuss with me, it looks like she has a purpose for looking for me. Since it is this way, I should just go, and if it is a waste of time I’ll just return early.” Sima You Yue said.

Why would Jade look for her?

“We didn’t receive the invite, so we can’t go. Please be careful since you’ll be on your own, it’ll be best if you could stick with your older brothers.” Fatty Qu urged.

“I know.”

In the evening, Sima You Yue and Sima You Ran went to the Alchemy Masters Guild

. Because this invite was only sent to the younger generation of competitors, Wei Zi Qi and the rest had to remain at home. Because they had thought that Sima You Yue would not be attending the banquet, they were greatly surprised to see her appear. When they heard that she would be going, they didn’t think much of it and simply brought her on her way.

“When the Li family was being challenged they were almost overcome by the competition, and I never thought that they would win the last round, if not they would be in the lower category of powers now. Now that we have to see them later, I don’t feel that great.” Sima You Yang said.

“You can just pretend that you didn’t see them.” Sima You Lin closed his eyes in recuperation, not looking at him.

“That’s all we can do.” Sima You Yang said grudgingly, and looked at Sima You Yang and said, “You Yue, didn’t you say that you weren’t going? Why did you suddenly change your mind?”

“In the afternoon I received the invitation from Jade, saying that she had to discuss something with me. I don’t know what, though, so I’ll have to go to find out. I do know her, anyway.” Sima You Yue said.

Sima You Lin looked at her, and his eyes glistened. He didn’t say anything, but closed his eyes once more.

The palanquin brought them punctually to the Alchemy Masters Guild, and under the instruction of the servant girl, they brought them to the banquet’s location.

At that time there was already a crowd, and a significant number of members of other families had already arrived, each holding a cup of wine, gathered in groups of three to five and chattering. Sima You Yue held a cup of wine and chatted with Sima You Lin at a corner.

Not long after, a servant girl came up and said, “Young Master Sima, my Young Mistress invites you over to come to her.” Sima You Yue knew who this person was, she was Jade’s close maidservant, and seeing that she was the one to summon her, she did not think much, and got up to follow her.

“I’ll go with you.” Sima You Lin felt unsure in his heart, and got up as well.

“I’m sorry, Master You Lin, my Mistress only wants Young Master You Yue over.” The maidservant said apologetically, and looked at Sima You Yue, saying, “Young Master You Yue, please come with me.”

Sima You Yue nodded at Sima You Lin, and followed the maidservant out of the party.

Sima You Lin looked at them as they left, and sat down again by himself.

Sima You Yue followed the maidservant to the back of the Alchemy Masters Guild

. But because she had never been at this place before, she was unable to ascertain if the maidservant was walking in the right direction or not. After walking for a long time, she realised that?where the maidservant was going was more and more secluded, and stopped in her tracks, asking, “Your young mistress is also someone at the Alchemy Masters Guild

, her quarters should not be in such a secluded place as this, right?”

The maidservant smiled and said, “My young mistress will not be meeting you at her quarters. She has something to say to you, and so she specially requested to meet at a quiet, secluded place. We will be arriving soon.”

Sima You Yue felt suspicious, but she still continued to walk on. A few moments later, they arrived at a desolate yard. In the middle of the place’s pavilion, there was some food, and a pitcher of alcohol.

“Master You Yue, please wait here for a moment, my young mistress will be arriving soon.” The maidservant said, and promptly left.

Sima You Yue walked into the pavilion, and looking at the set up on the table, the corners of her mouth turned upwards in an icy smile.

“Looks like someone is purposefully luring me here!” She said quietly, and Li Mu, who was hiding on the other side of the yard, felt his heart leap, and smiled, seeing the opportunity before his eyes.

*Wooooo*

The floor tiles beneath her suddenly split open, and she fell through them.

“You Yue!” An urgent voice cried out from the yard, but before Sima You Yue was able to tell who it was, she had fallen into darkness. In the dark, she felt someone jump in after her. The hole below was very deep, of perhaps about a few hundred metres, but because the tiles had closed up, the was pitch dark.

In her urgency she created a flame, and as she looked around, she also steadied her body so that she could land safely. A few seconds later, another person also landed.

“You Lin?” Sima You Yue started to be able to make out who the person was. She gasped, “Why are you here?”

“I saw you leaving, and felt that something wasn’t right, so I stealthily followed you, but when I arrived I saw you fall in, and so I followed after you.” Sima You Lin said.

“Thank you.” Sima You Yue said, smiling.

Using the light from the flame, they checked their surroundings, and they realised that it was small square room, and the walls were covered with moss, probably made as a trap.

“The moss beneath our feet is rather strange.” Sima You Lin said.

“What?” When Sima You Yue was about to look carefully at the moss, she heard footsteps from above her head. Sima You Yue closed her eyes to feel, and said, “Li Mu, it is you!”

“Hahaha, Sima You Yue, you never thought so, but it is me!” Li Mu laughed from above. “Aren’t you very powerful, how did you fall into my trap?”

“Jade’s maidservant was bribed by you.” Sima You Yue thought about the maidservant who had brought her, and knew that because she was Jade’s close maidservant that she had followed her at all, and she had never thought that that maidservant was now working for Li Mu.

“Your mind is quite sharp, too bad that that sharp mind can only be used until today.” Li Mu said.

“Do you really think that a small place like this will be able to contain me?” Sima You Yue squinted, shooting a dangerous look at him. When she gets back up, she will teach him a lesson!

“Don’t underestimate this place, these rocks are hard beyond comparison, and even if a Spirit Paragon came here, they would take a whole hour to fight their way out of here.” Li Mu said. “I know you have very strong spirit beasts, but a few seconds here is enough! I will send you to your death….”
