“Master, Senior Brother, why are the both of you looking at me like that?” She looked at the both of them, and rubbed her temples because she was feeling dizzy.

“What did you see just now?” Old Man Devil asked.

“I saw a skull and a beautiful lady.” Sima You Yue replied as she continued,”Oh right, I think I went to a really strange place just now, did the both of you see it ?”

“You saw a beautiful lady and a skull?” Both of them turned pale with fright when they heard what she saw.

“Yeah, look, the skull and the beautiful lady in the upper realms. “She pointed with her thumb, but realized that they had become as tiny as her thumb was. “Oh, it shrank!”

“That means that it acknowledges you.” Old Man Devil explained.

“Then what was that just now?” Sima You Yue realized what he meant, looked at the ring on her finger and said, “Why do I feel like this ring feels different from the average rings?”

“Obviously it would, that’s the Divine Devil Valley’s successor’s ring.” said Wu Lingyu.

This ring had chosen him initially, but he had still chosen to take it off, erasing Old Man Devil’s acknowledgement of him.

Even if it had acknowledged him in the past, it didn’t have such a big reaction like it did when it acknowledged Sima You Yue.

This place was filled with the smell of blood just a moment ago, if it wasn’t for Old Man Devil who dissipated the smell, it would have reached Ten Thousand Beast Mountain.

“The successor’s ring…” Sima You Yue silently stared at Old Man Devil,

“Master, did you take out the wrong ring?”

“You really think I’m an old fogey, don’t you?” Old Man Devil glared at her.

“You want me to be the successor of Divine Devil Valley?” Sima You Yue looked at Old Man Devil, astonished.

“Of course.” said Old Man Devil, ” Does this not make up for anything?”

“Not really.” Sima You Yue said, displeased, “Can’t I return this to you?”

“You don’t want to become my successor?”

“Yea, I don’t.” she said straightforwardly.

“Why?” Old Man Devil faces turned dark. Even if Wu Lingyu didn’t want to be his first successor it was fine, but now even she didn’t want to be his successor? If word went out, he’d be a laughing stock.

“I just don’t like it.” said Sima You Yue.

“Hahaha!” Wu Lingyu burst out laughing. Her reason was the same as his, it was no wonder he liked her.

Indeed, through their many years of separation, he realized this truth that he liked her. Since he came to terms with his emotions, he decided he would definitely not flee from them, but he would work hard to make her his.

“Even if you don’t like it, you have no choice!” Old Man Devil said,”Now that the Blood Ring has acknowledged you and it’s even the higher ranks that have acknowledged you, you will be the successor whether you like it or not! If you dare to follow in the footsteps of your brother, I’ll break your legs!”

“Brother got acknowledged too? Then why could he reject it, but not me?” Sima You Yue said, annoyed.

“It’s because he rejected it, so you can’t!”said Old Man Devil, “If it gets rejected just one more time, the Blood Ring will be angered. It happened in the past, if it gets rejected one more time, the second person will bleed to death.”

“Something will happen?” Sima You Yue’s eyes widened. “I read a book about it once.” said Wu Lingyu.

Sima You Yue thought about the skull and the beautiful lady, she somehow felt that both of them had endless power.

“Alright. “She didn’t want to bleed to death or die just because she rejected the position of the sect leader, and reluctantly agreed.

“So many people want to enter Divine Devil Valley but they can’t, yet you’re being offered the position of being sect leader and you reject it?” Old Man Devil fumed with anger.

At this point, Sima You Yue was unhappy about having to accept the role as sect leader and choosing not to entertain him, she asked “Master, since Divine Devil Valley has two sect leaders ,that means we’re still missing one sect leader?”

“Yea, that would be Evil Doer.”Old Man Devil nodded, ” When you see him in the future, you will naturally recognise him.”

From the looks of it, Old Man Devil didn’t intend to talk any further about this person, Sima You Yue could only suppress her curiosity.

She took out a few jade bottles, she gave one to Old Man Devil and the rest to Wu Lingyu, saying, ” With my power now, I can only give you one to two drops in one shot, you can use them. ”

“That’s a lot!” Upon seeing a treasure, Old Man Devil’s anger was gone and he opened up the bottle to smell it, “What exactly is this?”

“You can take it as something that’s one rank above the earth dragon’s marrow.”said Sima You Yue.

She put it simply, but the other two were still shocked. They had already pretty much now understood its use.

“I’m displeased. I’m going to head back. My mood just gets bad when I look at the two of you. Sigh.”

With that, she called Little Roc, and left the mountain.

She didn’t manage to get her compensation and instead became the leader of Divine

Devil Valley, so this made her very unhappy.

She wasn’t a fool, this position would definitely have many people jealous of her, with this level of protection, when she went up to the upper realms she would have a better life.

But she was smart, smart enough to understand that with the position came rights and responsibilities at the same time, and she would be busy in the future. Also, she was lazy right down to her bones, and when she thought about the future, having to handle the matters of Divine Devil Valley, she grew increasingly frustrated.

“She really isn’t happy.” Wu Lingyu said to Old Man Devil,as he watched Sima You yue leave.

“She’s mild tempered, I believe she’ll be fine after a few days.” Old Man Devil was still fixated on the soul fluid, he didn’t seem the least bit bothered about Sima You Yue.

Wu Lingyu stared at the jade bottle and said ” I once saw a kind of soul fluid in a book at the Sage Pavilion, it looked really similar to this one. Maybe, it’s exactly what I saw.”

“So what sort of fluid is it?”

“A rare treasure, soul fluid.” answered Wu Lingyu.

Old Man Devil stood stunned, and looked at the bottle in his hands with wide eyes, he heard of it before too. Immediately he burst out laughing “She really is a person of incredibly good fortune!”

Sima You Yue returned to the lake and skipped stones across the water in

annoyance. She was still very unhappy about the whole thing.

“What’s wrong?” Everyone realized that something must have happened and went forward to ask her.

“Nothing much.” Sima You Yue realized that she was in fact angry at herself, and there was pretty much nothing you could do even if you said it out loud. She walked over to a huge stone she saw in the distance and wrapped her arms around it. She gathered her spiritual energy and threw it angrily into the lake.

“Pop,pop——”

The bubbles rose to the surface as the rock sank.

Suddenly, a chill came upon the lake, and everyone shivered.

“Danger! Fall back! Fall back into the array!” Sima You Yue hurriedly shouted, before she turned and ran herself.

Before Sima You Yue shouted, the rest had already ran off into the array.

At this moment, the lake bubbled continuously as like a geyser, bubbles were rising to the surface, and a burst of energy shot into the skies. But as if there was an invisible veil blocking the energy burst from striking the heavens, it quickly fell back into the lake.

Everything happened so quickly, it probably took less than two seconds, but to Sima You Yue and the rest, it felt like a century had gone by. Waiting for that burst of energy to return back to the lake took painfully long and they fell to the floor, paralysed in fear.

After a long while, Sima You Yue finally regained her strength, and with much effort, she stood up and surveyed the lake.
