Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Wu Lingyu followed Fei Yi and left, while Huan, Black Shadow and Chan Jiu hid themselves away. In a moment, only Fu Xi, Hai Xi and Hai Xing were left by Sima You Yue’s side.

The Music Sect members saw that she only kept three people by her side and said, “You only kept three children with you. Are they taking care of you, or are you taking care of them? Why don’t we send a few more people here?”

“What do you mean send a few more people? I think you guys just want to send yourselves here right?” Great Elder Jing Fu patted the shoulder of the person who spoke, “The few of you, hurry up and go to practice your skills. Your Master Ancestor is about to surpass you guys!”

“Master Ancestor’s position is higher than ours. There is nothing embarrassing about her surpassing us!”

“Still talking back to me? Do you want to go back and reflect while facing the wall?” Jing Fu Master blew on his beard, and those people immediately ran away.

Sima You Yue felt that this old rascal was quite interesting.

“You Yue, we did not introduce ourselves properly that day. I am the Music Sect’s Great Elder, Fu Jing. You can call me Martial Uncle in the future. Great Elder or Fu Jing, is also fine.” Fu Jing Said.

“Martial Uncle,” Sima You Yue chose to call him with a more intimate title.

“Mm, I came to see how things were going.” Fu Jing said.

“It is almost done. We just need to decorate the interior a bit and we’ll be done.” Sima You Yue answered.

Initially, it would take a few days. However, many people came to help her out, so the house was built quickly but it was better if they didn’t interfere with the decorations of the house.

“That’s good. If you need anything, just let the sect know. Oh, you can tell me. If I am able to arrange it for you, I will.” Fu Jing said.

“Thank you, Martial Uncle. For the time being there isn’t anything I need. If there is, I will be sure to look for you.” Sima You Yue said politely.

“That’s good, then.” Fu Jing nodded his head, “You Yue, you’ve already been here for a few days. Have you seen the Vice Sect Master?”

Sima You Yue understood what he meant. Was this Martial Uncle here for gossip? Yan Ya said that he was a busybody, and it looked like it was really the case!

“The Vice Sect Master has to manage the matters in the sect. She is very busy, and I had also just finished building my house. How could we have had the time to meet one another?” She laughed in reply.

“Oh.”

Sima You Yue could hear the disappointment in his voice along with anticipation.

“I also heard what happened between you and the Beast Tamer Sect Master. The Beast Tamer Sect Master is petty, and you put him in such an embarrassing situation. He’s sure to cause trouble for you.” Fu Jing said, “We don’t bother ourselves with issues involving those of the same generation, but if anyone else from the Beast Tamer Sect finds trouble with you, you can tell us.” Great Elder said.

“Alright, I will.” Sima You Yue nodded her head, showing that she had heard what he said.

“The Hidden Sect is very dangerous.You have to be careful if you want to go out.” Fu Jing warned before leaving.

“This rascal is so old, yet he doesn’t act his age. How old is he already, yet he is still curious about everything!” Fu Xi scorned.


“Martial Uncle is still alright. That cheap Master of mine has yet to even visit once. At least he came to visit.” Sima You Yue said, “Alright, each of you can go ahead and pick a house. If you need anything let me know. If we’re missing anything, let me know. We can get those from the sect to help us buy whatever we need .”

“Alright!” The three of them went to pick their own house and took out the items that they already had. Sima You Yue gave them a few items. The remaining things they needed were reported to the sect, and someone quickly delivered the items.

She had finally finished packing up her house when Lu Yan finally thought of her, his disciple. He arranged for someone to ask her to go over, and to bring those three rascals with her.

“Master,” Sima You Yue went to Lu Yan’s training room. Lu Yan had his hair down lazily as he sat behind the instrument stand dressed in a white robe.

Once they entered, Lu Yan stopped playing the zither, looked at the four of them, and said, “Have you decided to keep them by your side?”

“Yes, I have already decided.” Sima You Yue responded.

“People from the Hai Clan. You should already know what troubles you may encounter, since you’ve made such a decision. In that case, I will not ask you further about it.” Lu Yan said, “As for the other one, although I do not know what his identity is there, you should not let it affect the safety of the Hidden Sect. Otherwise, I will not protect you.”

Since he said it this way, it meant that he had agreed to let them stay.

“Many thanks, Master.”

Lu Yan got the three rascals to leave before he spoke to Sima You Yue, “Today, I asked you to come to test your talent in this area. I will be playing a tune, and you will tell me what you can hear from it.”

After talking about it, he started playing the zither.

This is Sima You Yue’s second time hearing him play the zither, it was different from the previous time where the sound was broken and had a sharp aura, his tune was much softer this time, letting the people who hear it feel relaxed.

It had been a long time since the people in the sect had heard him play his zither. He had always used other instruments. Although he always carried the zither with him, he rarely let others hear him play.

This was a gentle piece that carried a sense of joy. After one tune was finished, everyone who heard his tune had calmed down as they went to do their own things happily.

Lu Yan could feel the reactions of the people outside, He had intentionally let them hear it so that he would be able to have a source of comparison.

However, Sima You Yue was not relaxed, instead she furrowed her brows slightly.

“What did you hear from the tune?”

The two of them looked at one another. He wanted to see her reaction.

Although he already took her in as his disciple, this was already set in stone, he still wanted to gauge her talents. He hoped that she would not be too bad.

However, judging from the way that she furrowed her brows, could it be that she couldn’t grasp what the concept was behind the tune?

“You can say anything you want, even if you didn’t manage to get anything from the tune, it doesn’t matter.”

“Then I’ll just say it!” Sima You Yue took a glance at him, and said carefully, “Master, you chose this piece that carried happiness within the gentle tune. No matter how restless the heart is, after hearing this tune, one would be able to calm down. But…”

“But what? Is my playing not good enough?”

“How could I comment on Master’s skills? I just feel that when Master was playing, you included a bit of longing in it. In the beginning I felt happy listening to the tune, but towards the end, it made me feel a little sad.”

Lu Yan was stunned at that moment. She could actually hear the longing in it, That extremely slight and faint hint of longing.

“Very good. You could actually hear all the feelings that were in the tune.” He looked at her with approval, “Anything else?”

“I feel that the feeling of longing was separated from the other feelings. The other feelings were meant to be in the concept of the tune, but the feeling of longing came from Master’s own feelings.” Sima You Yue said, “Master, were you thinking of somebody?”

Lu Yan fiddled with the strings twice and said, “I thought of your Senior Sister. At that point of them she also sat in front of me casually just as you are now, with both hands supporting her cheeks. Even the look in your eyes is very similar.”

They even looked alike, causing him to feel rather dazed for a moment.
