Chapter 602 - You Cannot Enter
Chapter 602: You Cannot Enter
Sima You Yue was not worried about Wu La Li’s question. She spoke confidently, “Do you have any other way besides believing me?”
Wu La Li raised his brows. He didn’t like her self-confidence.
“I think you’ve thought about every way you can think about and have looked for all the people you can, but you have not found a better solution. Otherwise you will not rest your hope on this ethereal nirvana pill.” Sima You Yue concluded., “Don’t be angry. Being too impulsive is not the quality an emperor should have.”
Her words extinguished the burning scorn in Wu La Li. “You’re saying, I’ll have to wager on you?”
“You can only choose to wager.” Sima You Yue remarked. “But you can keep betting when you can find your Nirvana Pill. It doesn’t matter, does it? I’m just another backup for you.”
“What if I find these materials?”
“Then I’ll promise you a condition and help you later.”
“You?” Wu La Li sized her up. This kid is truly overconfident!
How can Sima You Yue not understand the meaning of his eyes. “Mister Wu La, have you heard of a saying?”
“What?”
“It is better to deceive a white mustache duke than a poor youngster. I’m very weak now, but I’m still young. and I have a big future. Besides, I have a lot of talent.” Sima You Yue smiled.
“Puff…” Wu La Li really laughed this time. He hadn’t seen such a boaster. “You are the most self-confident person I’ve met.”
“Thank you for your praise.” Sima You Yue replied curtly.
“I don’t think I’m praising you.”
“I think you are praising me.” Sima You Yue retorted, “For human beings, black sea cucumber is a very rare medicine, but for your sea people, it is not uncommon. To be honest, it’s really important for me, but the Ninth Star Ocean is so big, maybe I’ll meet someone else who has it. But you can’t meet a confident doctor like me. How about, Mister Wu La? It’s a good deal?”
“I need to know your true strength.” Wu La Li stated.
“If you promise me, I’ll immediately show you my strength.” Sima You Yue said. “Since we’d discuss, I’ll take the black sea cucumber first.”
Wu La Li looked at her and thought for a moment. Maybe it was her confidence that made him believe her. He took out a crystal box, “Here is the black sea cucumber. Since the black sea cucumber left the sea, it can only be contained in this crystal box, otherwise it will wither rapidly. Can you prove it to me now?”
Sima You Yue stored the black sea cucumber away. The anxiousness in her heart subsided.
“Alright, come with me.”
Wu La Li came out with her and discovered her unperturbed behavior turned urgent when she came out.
“Young master You Yue, your beast carriage has already been prepared.” The administrator waited for her at the lobby downstairs.
“Thank you. Mister Wu La is coming with me to the sect. Some time later, I will send him back.” Sima You Yue pulled Wu La Li as she ran towards the carriage at the entrance.
Wu La Li watched as he followed her out the door. He saw the small hand grabbing onto his and dark light flashed in his eyes.
This feeling, it didn’t feel like a man’s palm!
Sima You Yue pulled Wu La Li into the carriage and shouted to the coachman. “Go to the Heavenly Sect! Hurry!”
“Alright, young master You Yue sit still!” The coachman yelled and rushed to the Heavenly Sect.
Wu La Li observed Sima You Yue’s anxious face, which was a large change from then. He couldn’t help but ask, “Are you worried?”
“Yes.” Sima You Yue nodded. She was really anxious because a lot of time had passed. She wasn’t sure if she could catch up.
“You’re… really strange.”
“Hmm?” Sima You Yue looked at him confusedly. She didn’t understand his words.
“You were so calm when you talked with me a moment ago and you weren’t anxious at all. But now… ” Wu La Li stared at her with interest.
“How can I talk to you if I’m not calm?” Sima You Yue smiled, “I always believe that no matter how anxious you are, you should calm down and get things done.”
“Very good mentality.” Wu La Li leaned back. “You said you would prove your ability to me. Is that what you are in a hurry to do?”
“Yes. If I can accomplish it well, then you’ll be able to see my ability.” Sima You Yue answered.
She opened the curtains and looked out. The beast carriage was very fast, and it had already traveled halfway..
Later, both of them did not speak. Sima You Yue lowered her head to think about her own affair, while Wu La Li watched her thoughtfully.
The open-air venue of the sect was populated, because today was the first day of the selection into the inner sect and the selection of the alchemy department.
In order to satisfy the crowd’s desire for action, only one department’s examination would be carried out each day. Today was the alchemy, tomorrow would be for arrays, and the day after tomorrow would be weapon expertise. After that would be the beast taming, and the last few days would be devoted to spirit masters.
The open-air venue was surrounded with onlooking students, concentrating on the competition.
It was hard to see the scene of hundreds of students refining pills together. Half the time had passed, and those who’re quick had finished purifying the herbs and started fusing.
Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei were seated in the back. They both had finish purifying and was ready to fuse.
.
Beside them, an unused pill furnace and two batches of herbs sat on the table.
Before they started fusing, both of them glance at that seat and them at each other. Keen worry was reflected in their eyes.
“It’s already half past two, why is You Yue still not here?!” Fatty Qu worriedly commented.
“There’s only three and a half hours left. Sixth grade pill, I’m afraid that refining successfully is…”
“No, fifth brother won’t give up.” Sima You Le clenched his fist. He didn’t believe Sima You Yue would give up this chance.
“I also believe in her.” Sima You Lin agreed.
The people in the stands had long found out that one person was absent. Before that, people were still thinking that someone would be late. Now it seemed that the person gave up the chance.
“Is it the student that Old Ge talked about?” On the rostrum, a teacher said to Ge Liang, “I wanted to see what kind of students you were full of praise about. Now it seems that I won’t have the chance.”
Ge Liang saw his infuriating smile and gave him a cold look. He glanced toward the empty seat and felt anxious as well.
That kid said so firmly that he was going to enter the inner sect? How can he be absent now? Did something happen?
But his friends and family are all here. If something happened to him, they wouldn’t be here.
At this moment, there was a clamor at the entrance of the conference hall. When people looked over, it was the beast carriage that had drove directly to the door.
“You can go find a place to sit.” Sima You Yue jumped from the carriage and broke into a run heading inside.
“Stop! What are you doing?” The teacher outside of the examination hall stopped her.
“Teacher, I’m here to attend the selection’s examination.” Sima You Yue replied.
“No, you cannot enter.” The teacher vetoed.
