At this point, those that gathered around became afraid. The Ghost King actually killed those forces that participated in the event because of Sima You Yue. Even though there were ten thousands of people here, there were also a few thousands of forces, it would be hard to eliminate all of them from Ghost Realm.
This was nothing for the ruler of the Ghost Realm.
It would be the end if they participated! Most of them were drenched with sweat just by thinking of it.
No one thought that Ghost King would care about his Granddaughter, but he actually made a fuss over it just to avenge her!
Everyone stood up from the ground after Ghost King and Sima You Yue left, while some of them continued to sit on the ground as they were shocked by it.
He turned his head around to glance at the bodies in the valley, these people were complacent initially. Now, not only were they killed by Sima You Yue, they even implicated their clans. What would they think if they were still alive?
Di Wu and Di Liu were happy to hear that. Most of the forces that participated in this were mostly under the Ghost Concubine, and her power would be weakened now that Ghost King had eliminated them. They wanted to spread this good news.
Sima You Yue followed Ghost King and walked for a long time as none of them talked as they went to the highest peak of Black Goddess Mountain.
Wind from the mountain top blew against their clothes and hair. Ghost King looked at Sima You Yue and said, “You look like your Mother.”
Sima You Yue lifted her head towards Ghost King. He looked young but it seemed like he had gone through many changes as there was helplessness and pain in his eyes.
“Since you’ve mentioned my Mother, then I won’t beat around the bush.” She pursed her lips and asked the question that she had suppressed in her heart, “Where is my Mother?”
Ghost King stared at her sharply. Seeing how she didn’t back down, he moved his hands back and looked away, “Your Mother has made a mistake and is getting punished. Since you’re already at the Ghost Realm, stay here and don’t worry about useless things.”
“Useless things?” Sima You Yue huffed, “Is my Mother a useless thing to you?”
“Don’t worry about it since you don’t know anything.” Ghost King contained his temper to avoid scaring her.
“So should I not be concerned when I don’t know anything? She is my Mother!” Sima You Yue’s voice became sharp, “She is my Mother, I can’t wash my hands off and not do anything knowing that my Mother is suffering! My goal is to save her the moment that I know she’s in pain. If you tell me, it’ll save me a lot of trouble, but if you don’t, I won’t stop here as I’ll look for my Mother and save her!”
“You dare?!”
“Why would I not dare?!” Sima You Yue looked at him mockingly, “Do you think I’m like you? Older Cousin said you have your difficulties, but no matter how I look at it, it looks like you are just using your Daughter as an excuse! I’m different from you, I won’t hesitate for so long. I don’t care if it will stir any trouble. As long as my Mother is safe!”
Regardless of what happened that very year, Ghost King would always be the coward that compromised with others, using his own Daughter to exchange for them to retreat.
Ghost King closed his eyes while trying to suppress his anger, he opened his eyes with indifference again. They both glared at each other and didn’t step down.
At last, he gave in and said, “I told you, I don’t allow it.”
“I’ve told you as well, I’ll do it even if you don’t tell me where she is.” Sima You Yue didn’t give in.
Ghost King looked at those familiar looks and was distracted for a moment, he thought he saw another pair of pupils. He knew and understood the determination in those eyes. However, he didn’t dare to look straight at her because of these eyes.
He looked far away with a lower temperament, “You and your Mother… look too similar.”
Sima You Yue didn’t speak as it was pointless saying anything.
“Actually, your Mother requested for all of this.” Ghost King continued, “So was leaving you and your Father and choosing to be imprisoned too.”
‘What?! It’s impossible!” Sima You Yue didn’t believe what he said, “Initially when you sent someone to bring Mother back, she was struggling and resisting badly, why would she leave my Father and me. Not to mention that she requested to be imprisoned and lose her freedom forever.”
“That’s the truth even if you don’t believe it.” Ghost King said.
“It’s impossible! She likes Father so much, why would she request to leave. She wouldn’t want to leave My Father and me.” Sima You Yue shook her head in disbelief, “Don’t even try to think that I’ll give up looking for Mother just because you said that. I won’t fall for it.”
“Back in those days, not only did the Human Realm disapprove of your Father and Mother, they also got into danger in the Ghost Realm. People from the Ghost Realm knew that she went to the Human Realm with no forces and power, so they sent people to assassinate them and she hid this from your Father.” Ghost King continued, “Those from the Human Realm and Ghost Realm were trying to assassinate them, and there were many times where they couldn’t make it through. If it was only humans who disapproved, she might have been able to persist, but there were also risks from the Ghost Realm. Especially when she had you, she couldn’t let you live in danger everyday. So she came to me for help.”

Sima You Yue looked at Ghost King astonishingly. That very year when he brought the men over to catch her, it wasn’t because she and her Father were together, but because of her request?
How was that possible?!
Sima Liu Yun told them that Father almost lost his life and it was Ghost King who was the one that fought with him and Mother was so sad when she left.
Ghost King understood what she was thinking and continued, “Afterall, I’m a Ghost King, would he still have a chance to live if I wanted to kill a mere Human?”
Sima You Yue quivered. He was right, why would he let Father live if he was angry at them. Although it looked like he had injured him badly, there were chances that he could live if he hadn’t died.
Could Mother really have requested to leave? Because she was worried that she might endanger Father and her, and just so that Sima You Yue could live happily?
With both of them carrying a child, how would both of them deal with the assassination from both Human and Ghost Realm….
She had rather left in pain for Sima You Yue’s safety. How would she be able to tolerate the pain of leaving her own Daughter?
Thinking of these, her eyes became painfully dry.
“What comes after? Since she requested to go back, why was she being suppressed?”
