Sima You Yue looked at Xi Yu, “Who is this ninety-ninth Princess? How many Princesses are there?!”
“Ninety-ninth Princess can be considered as Young Princess’ cousin whom the King had personally sealed her as a Princess.” Xi Yu explained, “In the past, the ninety-ninth Princess and Princess were almost the same age and they were close, but after she followed His Highness back to the Dynasty, they rarely came back.”
“Then is there anything in particular that she is looking for me for?” Sima You Yue questioned.
“I think she knows that you’re back and wants to meet you.” Xi Yu continued, “Young Princess, do you want to meet her?”
“Since I’m already at Youthful Palace, let’s meet her.” Sima You Yue made a sign to Xi Yu as she welcomed her in.
“Ninety-ninth Princess, welcome.”
Sima You Yue heard Xi Yu’s voice and lifted her head up to see an enchanting lady in a red dress walking in.
“Little Aunt?” Yu Wan Wan went blank after seeing Sima You Yue.
“You Yue greets the Ninety-ninth Princess.” Sima You Yue slightly bowed in greeting and stood up.
Yu Wan Wan came back to her senses as she smiled and said, “They said that you and your Mother look alike, I thought I saw her for a moment when I saw you. You both really look alike.”
“Ninety-ninth Princess, you…”
“We’re of the same generation, just address me as Cousin Wan Wan.” Yu Wan Wan said.
“Alright, Cousin Wan Wan.” Sima You Yue readily accepted it as she didn’t like calling out long forms of address as well.
“The King, Father and I knew you were back long ago, but we couldn’t come back early to see you as we were busy preparing for the competition. I was thinking that I could see you at the competition but I didn’t expect that you weren’t in the Palace. That’s why I came over quickly when I received the news.”
“I appreciate your thoughts, Cousin Wan Wan.” Sima You Yue said formally.
“Thinking back, I agreed with Little Aunt that we’d get married and have kids together. I didn’t expect to see you grow up so quickly.” Yu Wan Wan said with a sigh.
Sima You Yue didn’t know what to say, so she smiled.
She was only her Elder Cousin, so why did she sound like she was an elder.
Yu Wan Wan didn’t notice that as she even asked her about a lot of things. Sima You Yue would answer everything she asked.
“I heard that you wanted to save Little Aunt?” Yu Wan Wan asked.
Sima You Yue was in doubt, how did she know about this?
“You don’t have to be surprised, Di Zhe and I are still on good enough terms to talk about this.” Yu Wan Wan explained.
Sima You Yue now understood that they had to be close enough that he was able to tell her about such secret matters.
It was so rare for someone like him to have someone he was close to.
“Initially, we weren’t on good terms.” Yu Wan Wan explained, “We both couldn’t stand each other, but after Little Aunt’s problem, we were able to sit down and have a good talk. Despite that, all we talked about was just the information that we received.”
So this was the case. They were both close to Mother, so when Mother got into trouble, they were able to sit down and discuss how to save Mother, which meant that they were on the same boat.
“Yes, I want to save Mother.” Sima You Yue admitted.
“Is the Hundred Ghost Banner still with you?” Yu Wan Wan questioned.
“You know about the Hundred Ghost Banner too?” She even knew that it was with her!
“Of course I know about the Hundred Ghost Banner. I was the one who gave it to Di Zhe secretly. Initially, I asked him to collect all the ancient war souls when he was in the Immortal Land, but he came back telling me that he lost it. It was only after much probing, that he finally told me about your existence.” Yu Wan Wan mentioned this through gritted teeth as she was still unhappy about how Di Zhe had lied to her about losing the Hundred Ghost Banner.
“The Hundred Ghost Banner is with me.” Since she already knew it from Di Zhe, she didn’t want to hide it either.
“Then pass it to me for a while.” Yu Wan Wan said.
“Yin Lin said that I’ll need this to save Mother, I won’t be able to agree to it if Cousin Wan Wan wants to take it back.” Sima You Yue rejected.
She wouldn’t agree no matter what Yu Wan Wan wanted to do with it. She couldn’t take this risk if anything happened.
“You’re thinking too much, I’m not going to do anything with it.” Yu Wan Wan continued, “I’ve found an ancient battle place and I’ve confirmed that there are still war souls there. That’s why I’m thinking of using the Hundred Ghost Banner to capture them. There are many souls in there and will be able to put it to good use when we save Little Aunt.”
“Cousin Wan Wan?” Sima You Yue didn’t think that she would do that.
“That place has not been discovered by anyone yet, but those Soul Clansmen are looking for these ancient souls, so it’ll be problematic if they found it. That’s why we have to take this opportunity to rush over there.” Yu Wan Wan said.
“Yu Wan Wan!” Di Zhe’s flustered and exasperated voice came from outside and they saw Di Zhe’s dark expression while he walked in when they turned to him.
“Why are you being so fierce? It scared me to death!” Di Zhe’s face was scary when he got angry but Yu Wan Wan glared back at him as she wasn’t scared of him.
“How many times have I told you that you can’t tell You Yue about this? But you just ran into the Palace immediately. Do my words mean nothing to you?” Di Zhe shouted.
“By the time you get the Hundred Ghost Banner, a lot of time will be wasted.” Yu Wan Wan continued, “You Yue will give it to us if she knows what we want it for.”
Di Zhe rolled his eyes at her and sat beside Sima You Yue without talking.
“Cousin, what excuse were you going to come up with to get the Hundred Ghost Banner from me?” Sima You Yue asked.
“Hmph.” Di Zhe was unhappy, Yu Wan Wan didn’t know her well.
All in all, she wouldn’t give the Hundred Ghost Banner to Yu Wan Wan as this was the first time they met. But if Di Zhe asked for it, she might have considered it.
“Where is that ancient ancient battlefield?” Sima You Yue asked Yu Wan Wan.
“It’s in a Little Realm.” Yu Wan Wan continued, “That Little Realm is attached to the Ghost Realm, that’s how we accidentally found it.”
“Where is the Little Realm then?”
“It’s…..” Yu Wan Wan paused as she looked at her and said, “Why are you asking in detail? You want to go?”
“Since I already know about it not, I’ll definitely not let those ancient souls go.” Sima You Yue said.
“What, just leave this to us. That Little Realm is not safe to go to.” Yu Wan Wan said.
“Is that place dangerous?” Sima You Yue looked at Di Zhe instead of Yu Wan Wan, “So you intended to hide it from me and bring the Hundred Ghost Banner to collect the souls, am I right?”
“Yes.”
Now, he couldn’t even hide it from her anymore.
“Cousin, you’re already busy. The problems at Soul Region caused enough trouble for you. Let me do this on my own.” Sima You Yue said.
She wasn’t familiar with Yu Wan Wan.. Although she found her nice after talking to her, she couldn’t risk it. Hence, the best way was to go to the ancient battlefield to collect the ancient battle souls herself!
