That night, two people in black were running through the remote streets of Happiness City, quickly approaching the tombstone in the centre of the city.
However, they had yet to approach a hundred metres of the tombstone, when a circle of people suddenly appeared on the grounds, surrounding the two people in black.
“Nan Yu Zhi appeared from the back and laughed coldly at the black-clothed person in the middle, ” Sima You Yue, you really came.”
Sima You Yue pulled down the black cloth that was covering her face, “You knew that I would come.”
“Of course. Why else would the dignified Young Princess of the Ghost Realm come here if not to charge towards this tombstone.” Nan Yu Zhi said.
This tombstone has helped many to sense the spiritual energy. Even if no emperor ranked appeared, it was still very important to the people in the Soul Region.
That Ghost Realm’s Young Princess would come here, he could not think of any other motives that she would have.
Sima You Yue smiled sweetly at him, “Sorry, maybe you used to think you were smart, but this time you have guessed wrongly. My target is not this tombstone , instead it is… you!”
“Ha ha ha- what an arrogant tone!” Nan Yu Zhi laughed, “In this world, there are many people who are interested in me, but you are the first to say it so blatantly. If you are willing to dually cultivate with me, I wouldn’t mind having one more Young Princess of the Ghost Realm in my harem.
“Although it is in the middle of the night now, you can’t have a daydream like that.” Sima You Yue placed both of her hands behind her back. How did it seem like she was being surrounded at all?
“You will know very soon if I am daydreaming or not.” Nan Yu Zhi said, “Capturing the Ghost Realm’s Young Princess? I think the Ghost King will be delighted to redeem you. With how much the Ghost King loves you, I think he would be willing to spend a huge amount of money.”
“What a coincidence, it looks like we were thinking the same thing. If I capture you, I think the City Lord would surely be willing to pay the ransom for you.” Sima You Yue found out that they were thinking the same thing.
The City Lord highly valued Nan Yu Zhi. Although they were not blood-related, the two are still known as father and son. However, it had been a long time since the City Lord had appeared, and the whole Happiness City was basically under the management of Nan Yu Zhi.
Nan Yu Zhi was not her final target in the Happiness City, but he could help her reach her target.
“You look so beautiful. If you weren’t my enemy, I really would ask you to enter my harem.” Nan Yu Zhi laughed maliciously.
“What a pity, I have zero interest in you.” Sima You Yue said, “Since we have the same goals, let’s see who will be able to achieve their goal tonight.”
Nan Yu Zhi felt that this question was redundant. He waved his hands, and soldiers started to attack in their direction…
Happiness City had been on high alert recently. People with or without an entry token would be examined. The soldiers of the City Lord’s Mansion led people everywhere all day looking for something, slowly over time, the expressions on their faces were getting more and more serious.
Nan Yu Zhi had disappeared!
Now everyone in the Happiness City was looking for him. They did not know who had captured him, but you could say that they had become the public enemy here. They could not understand, what were the motives of these people who had captured him away? Where were these people hiding?
One could not leave the city during the night in Happiness City. Before the city gates opened, they had found many people dead in the City Lord’s Manor. The steward immediately blocked the city gates, and the whole of Happiness City only allowed people to enter but did not allow anyone to leave. Hence, these people could not have escaped.
They only realised afterwards that the Young City Lord had gone missing.
No matter how chaotic it was outside, Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu were relaxing leisurely in the small yard, drinking tea and chatting away. It was like they were not the ones who had made such a big commotion.
Luo Liu could vaguely sense something, but had no evidence, he also did not have any methods to look for Nan Yu Zhi straight away, and it has yet to affect their safety yet, so he did not say anything to Sima You Yue and the others.
Luo Yi went to find Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu.
“You Yue, your pill is too magical, ever since I’ve eaten it, I really don’t have the urge to speak anymore.” Luo Yi said happily.
“Mm, it’s good that you find it useful.” Sima You Yue did not say that it was all in his head.
“I didn’t think that your medical skills would be so incredible, if I have any sickness in the future, I can come look for you.”
“Sure, If I am still around.”
“Why? Do you intend on leaving?” Luo Yi asked in surprise.
“Even if I don’t leave now, we would also be going our separate ways.” Sima You Yue said.
“We don’t know what’s going on outside now, but where do you think Nan Yu Zhi went? Maybe he ran away on his own, even implicating us and making it so we are not able to leave.” Luo Yi wasn’t too happy. There were not many fun things to do in Happiness City, and he had come just to see Nan Yu Zhi. Now that he had gone missing, he could not take being stuck here anymore.
“Who knows!” Sima You Yue had no change in expression at all. Seeing her now, you would not think that Nan Yu Zhi was in her hands.
“But this situation will not continue for long.”
“Why?”
“Sixth Uncle said that it is impossible for the Happiness City to continue to be in a mess. Now that they only allow people to enter and not leave, everyone is already forming opinions. So, when the City Lord appears, Happiness City will settle down.”
“Where exactly is this Nan Yu Miao? Why hasn’t he come out, even when such a major thing has happened in Happiness City?
“There are rumours that he is in seclusion, there are also rumours that he is no longer here. We do not know much about the situation here, we can only hear what others are saying.” Luo Yi said, “But no matter what the situation is, it has already been so many days. He should appear soon.”
“Is that so? I would like to see this City Lord.” Sima You Yue said meaningfully.
“Nan Yu Miao isn’t someone you should associate yourself with. It will be better if you don’t meet him. My master said that he is ruthless and killing the innocents is something that happens often. Unluckily, he also has strong abilities, and I think that he has some connection with someone in the Top Ten Commanders, so most people dare not mess with him. My master told me to take a detour if I were to see him.”
“Such an incredible person?”
“Yes, yes.” Luo Yi emphasized by nodding his head twice, “So, if we see him in the city, it will be better not to provoke him.”
“You’re so scared of him. So, previously, when you dared to provoke Nan Yu Zhi, was it because Nan Yu Miao wasn’t around?”
“Cough cough, there are some things… you don’t have to point out.” Luo Yi felt a little embarrassed and immediately changed the topic, “So, who exactly do you think captured Nan Yu Zhi?”
“Since Happiness City is already in a mess, Nan Yu Miao will appear. The person who captured Nan Yu Zhi must want Nan Yu Miao to appear.”
“Of course I know this. What I am trying to say it, who exactly is stupid enough to target Nan Yu Miao?”
Sima You Yue mouth twitched, how was she going to tell him that this person was just in front of him?
