Mo Yu saw that lump of metal and his eyes were filled with a kind of disbelief.
It couldn’t be real, right? However, based on how it looked, it really looked like what he had once seen before.
He took that lump of metal and took a deep breath before flipping it over. Below it, the indistinct but present word, “North”, burned into his eyes.
“It really is it. Where did you find this?” He asked excitedly.
“Ah? I picked it up from under the mud.” Fu Xi didn’t understand why he was so excited, but it looked like he had really picked up a piece of treasure.
Sima You Yue looked at Mo Yu with even more surprise. When did he become so excited? Even Wu Lingyu looked like he was finding it inconceivable.
“What is this? You guys are so excited.”
She took the item from Mo Yu’s hand then inserted her spirit energy and realised that she didn’t feel any reaction from it.
Wasn’t this just a useless piece of metal?
Fu Xi looked at her curiously as well, saying, “Exactly, exactly. Could it be a piece of treasure?”
“Northern Divine Seal.” Mo Yu said, “Look at this.”
He flipped the northern divine seal over and pointed out the very faint word, ‘north’, saying, “The four divine seals all look the same. The only difference between them is the word written below.
“It really does look like that word.” Sima You Yue and Fu Xi rushed over. They saw that faintly discernible word, “However, this word is really difficult to recognise. I couldn’t make it out no matter how much I tried. I even thought it was some sort of decoration!”
“Mo Yu, is this really one of the Cardinal Point Divine Seals?” Sima You Yue said with uncertainty. No matter how she looked at it, it looked like a useless item. Was she really able to use this to rescue her mother?
“This… I’m not that certain either.” Mo Yu was a little hesitant, “After all, the northern divine seal has disappeared for many years already.”
“What did you say?!” Sima You Yue suddenly raised her voice and shocked Mo Yu who was deep in thought.
It was only now that Mo Yu realised what he had said. He inwardly chastised himself for blurting out something so major so carelessly.
He wanted to laugh and brush it off, but Sima You Yue was staring directly at him, preventing him from continuing what he wanted to say. He could only look pleadingly at Wu Lingyu.
Sima You Yue looked at Wu Lingyu as well, saying, “You knew this as well?”
“He insisted on telling me.” Wu Lingyu saw that the aura surrounding her had changed and he hurriedly walked up to grab her by her shoulders. At this moment, her body had already started to tremble uncontrollably, “You You, don’t be anxious. Didn’t you already find it? If this really is it, wouldn’t you have found one coincidentally?”
“But what if it isn’t real? Look, it’s a useless piece of metal. It doesn’t even have any spirit energy fluctuations. How does it look like an ancient divine tool?” Sima You Yue raised her head and looked at him, “If, if this isn’t real, then what do I do? What happens to Mother? Is there even any more need for me to press on?”
Wu Lingyu had never seen her acting like this before and did not care that others were around as well as he hugged her rightly. He patted her back and comforted her, “If this isn’t real, then there is no need to worry either. Even if we have to stake our lives, we will break that ancient seal and rescue your mother. Look at how many years you’ve made me wait? I’ve been waiting to marry you after she is rescued, so how could I let this stand in my way? Also, I have a feeling that this is eighty to ninety percent real.”
“Really?”
“That’s right, look how hard these walnuts are. I can’t even shatter them when I use my spirit energy, but it can split it in an instant. How could an ordinary item be so powerful?” Wu Lingyu analysed, “That’s why I have a feeling that it is real.”
After speaking, he glanced at Mo Yu, who immediately agreed with him, “That’s true. The average spirit tool isn’t so powerful. That’s why you shouldn’t worry yet. Let’s examine it first.”
Fu Xi saw the way Sima You Yue had changed so abruptly and had a shock. He asked, “You Yue, what’s wrong? Do you want this? I’ll give this to you okay, don’t be this way.”
After saying this, he even placed the northern divine seal in her hand and lifted his head to look at her.
Nothing could happen to her! She was the only one who could save him. If anything happened to her, what was he to do!
Sima You Yue took the Cardinal Point Divine Seal and took a deep breath, forcing herself to relax, Saying, “How can we ascertain the authenticity of this?”
“I’m afraid we will have to let your grandfather confirm it.” Mo Yu said, “If we can place those two divine seals together, we should be able to tell whether or not it is real.”
“Then we’re going to head back to the palace.” Sima You Yue said, “Fu Xi, come with me to the palace. Once we confirm this, we’ll settle your issue. Is that alright?”
Fu Xi looked at her, “Is this very important to you?”
“Yes, this is what I’ve been fighting for all these years. If this is fake, I…”
She didn’t know what she would do.
“Alright then, I’ll go with you.” Fu Xi said, “However, you have to keep me safe!”
Sima You Yue smiled a warm smile and nodded, “Mm, I will definitely protect you!”
Mo Yu and Wu Lingyu saw that she had calmed down and took a deep breath.
It was a good thing that this item was around when she found out about it. At the very least, it allowed her to fulfill her wishes. If they found it to be fake later on, then she would have more time to prepare her heart and at the very least, wouldn’t fall apart.
Lucky! They were lucky!
When he thought about it, the way Mo Yu looked at Fu Xi became a lot more gentle. They had to thank him for this. If not because he had brought this item with him, they wouldn’t have known what to do!
Fu Xi could sense Mo Yu’s kind gaze and raised his chin at him, insufferably arrogant. Without waiting for Mo Yu to reply to him, he turned around and refused to look at him.
Mo Yu pursed his lips. This damned brat!
“Since we’re going to return, then let’s go now.” Sima You Yue said, “Let’s use the quickest method to head back.”
As Mo Yu and the others were making the arrangements, Fu Xi finally had the time to ask her, “You Yue, are these Cardinal Point Divine Seals very important to you? What do you need them for?”
“They’re extremely important.” Sima You Yue nodded, “My mother has been imprisoned in the abyss of hell and, because of the mischief of some evildoers, they sealed my mother with an ancient seal. I can only break it if I use the Cardinal Point Divine Seals. My mother has already been sealed for more than a hundred years and I’ve always wanted to rescue her as soon as possible. However, my grandfather said that he will only tell me where she is after I’ve obtained all the Cardinal Point Divine Seals and have broken through the ranks of Underworld Paragon. Thinking about it now, he must have known long ago that the northern divine seal had disappeared for many years, which is why he used this to placate me. He wanted me not to lose my will to fight.”
“I see. I hope that this lump of metal is real.” Fu Xi only understood now why she had been so devastated. If it were him, to know that all he had been fighting for was a waste, he might have reacted the same way.
“Thank you, Fu Xi.” Whether or not it was real, he had given this item to her.. She was grateful for his kind intentions.
