“We haven’t seen each other for merely a short while, but you…” Sima You Yue looked at Mu Lan in surprise. It was less than a year, but he had already aged so much.
“My body isn’t good.” Mu Lan’s face had a faint smile. He did not feel unresigned just because he was about to die.
Seeing him face his death so peacefully, she took pity on him, and said subconsciously, “Can I examine you?”
“Sure. I heard that your medical skills are very good.” Mu Lan reached out his hand, not minding that he was revealing his Ming Men point.
Sima You Yue walked over, held onto his hands and gave him a thorough check. She only let go after a while, “All of your meridians and internal organs have degenerated, It’s no wonder you need the Divine Medicine.”
“Yes.” Mu Lan kept his hands away. With his eyelids drooping slightly, he asked while smiling, “Now are you willing to give me the Divine Medicine?”
“Of course, but I have to add a condition.” Sima You Yue said.
“Say it.”
“If this Divine Medicine saves you, then you have to guarantee, you cannot release an army to go against the Ghost Realm.” Sima You Yue said, “I am not asking you to help the Ghost Realm, but the least you can do is to not help the Soul Region. Anyway, this condition is not excessive.”
“You know about the Soul Region sending an army already.” Mu Lan said with certainty.
“Yes.” Sima You Yue admitted, “Triangle relationship is the most stable one, but it is also the most dangerous one. Once two parties unite, the other party will be sure to die.”
“Then why are you not asking for me to help the Ghost Realm, but to stand at the side?”
“Three Realms in chaos? Then the whole Ghost Realm will collapse.” Sima You Yue said, “If I ask you not to interfere, it will be easier for you to agree. If I ask you to get involved, you may not agree.”
Mu Lan laughed, she had analysed thoroughly.
“Alright, I promise you, I will not send out troops to help the Soul Region.” He agreed to her condition.
“Actually, the people from the Soul Region had come before, so His Honour has been contemplating. I have to say, your condition came at the right time,” Xi Er Mo said.
“Then I am really lucky.” Sima You Yue said while taking out a jade box that contained the teleost, took out the cover and let them see the flower that was inside.
At the moment that the box opened, Xi Er Mo and Mu Lan could feel a gentle force coming from it. Just by smelling it, Mu Lan could sense that his heavy chest felt more comfortable.
“It is indeed a Divine Medicine, the effects are extraordinary!” Mu Lan exclaimed.
Sima You Yue then took out the Northern Cardinal Divine Seal. Mu Lan understood her intentions, and took out the South Cardinal Point Divine Seal that had always been on him. They eached infused their spirit energy into their respective Cardinal Point Divine Seals and they emitted light as they immediately merged together.
Mu Lan kept away his spiritual energy, then threw the South Cardinal Point Divine Seal to her.
Sima You Yue caught the South Cardinal Point Divine Seal, then passed the Divine Medicine to him. Both parties did not think about cheating one another, so the exchange process was very smooth.
Mu Lan did not rush to take the Divine Medicine. Instead he looked at Sima You Yue and asked, “How do you know that you can unlock the seal if you have the Four Cardinal Point Divine Seals?”
Sima You Yue was just thinking about this, but she did not think that he would mention it before she could ask.
“I am unsure, and I wanted to ask you about it!” Sima You Yue said, “The previous time I tried, the Northern Cardinal Divine Seal alone was enough to use up all my spiritual energy. If all four of them are placed together, I don’t think I can withstand it. I don’t know how I should resolve this problem, if four people do it together will it be possible?”
“So you have already discovered this problem.” Mu Lan said, “Letting four people use it at the same time will not be possible, because the Four Cardinal Point Divine Seals have to be placed in at the same time, even a second’s difference will not be possible. So, you will have to do this on your own.”
“But if I do it alone, I’m afraid that it would not even be enough if I gave my life for it.”
“That is why you will need to cultivate.” Mu Lan said, “Only when you have them refined completely, will you be able to control them completely.”

“That would take such a long time!” Sima You Yue was still hung up about the war between the Soul Region and Ghost Realm. If it dragged on for too long, she did not know what the situation would be like when she went back.”
“There is no other way.”
Sima You Yue remained silent for a while, and said, “I understand. Thank You, Your Honour.”
“Do you need me to provide you with a place to stay?”
“No need. I don’t think I will be able to calm down if I stay in the Royal Palace.” Sima You Yue declined.
“Then I will let Mo send you out.”
“Thanks for the trouble.”
Xi Er Mo sent Sima You Yue to the Royal Palace’s gates and returned. When he returned, Mu Lan was still staring at the Divine Medicine.
“Your Honour, you should use it quickly!” He said.
“Mo, she actually found the Divine medicine.” Mu Lan still felt that the situation was a little surreal.
“He said that Sima You Yue was the Divine Medicine’s fated person, so naturally, it won’t be wrong.” Xi Er Mo said, “Just now she told me, the longer you delay, the more the effectiveness of the medicine will decrease. Your Honour, take it quickly, I will protect you.”
After he used it, he would need some time to absorb it and recover. During this period, he could be interrupted by anyone.
“Alright!”
…
After Sima You Yue left the Royal Palace, she went to Xiao Ling’s restaurant. There was a courtyard behind the restaurant, and it could house her for a while.
Qin Qin was currently eating in the private room. Sima You Yue walked in to see her, and immediately waved to her.
“Why did you come out so quickly? Did you manage to exchange for the item?”
“Yes, I did.” Sima You Yue sat down, “But, I have some matters to deal with, so I have to stay here for a few months.”
“Alright! You can arrange it according to your needs. Anyway, I have a lot of free time. For the next few months, I just happened to be taking a look around the Imperial Capital. In the past, I have always been rushing around, so I haven’t had time to play.” Qin Qin said.
Nai He, who was standing by the side, looked at her sadly.
“Alright, I may need to seclude myself. If you have anything you need, you can look for Xiao Ling. If even he cannot settle it, you can look for his uncle Xi Er Mo.” Sima You Yue instructed.
“Mm hmm, I understand. Do you want to order anything?”
“No, it’s fine. I still have some things to assign to Xiao Ling.” After speaking, Sima You Yue stood up and left.
Sima You Yue decided to stay in the most remote area in the courtyard behind the restaurant. Although Qin Qin stayed there as well, she knew that she was in seclusion, so she did not look for her.
However, what she could not understand was that Mo Yu and Nai He were actually staying here too. Although the two of them were often outside, seeing them occasionally was also annoying and gave her an eye sore.
In the Spirit Pagoda, Sima You Yue placed the Four Cardinal Point Divine Seals in the front. She used her divine senses to wrap up one of the Cardinal Point Divine Seal, then tried to refine it slowly, making it completely her own divine artifact.
And Wu Lingyu did not stay with her in the Spirit Pagoda during this time, Instead, he had been dealing with the Devil Clan’s matters outside.
His subordinates were very tired. Their own Master did not want to be the Devil King, and insisted on going to the Ghost Realm to play, making them report everything, going through a lot of ups and downs.. But everyone gave this action a nice title – courting a wife.
