Suddenly hearing Jiang Lingyue’s scream-like exclamation, Yu Yu was startled on the spot.
Junior Sister Jiang, what is... going on?!
Is someone hitting her?!
But with her status, even without the backing of a newly advanced Tier Five Alchemist, no one in the sect should dare lay a hand on her inside the sect...
Of course, those infiltrated spies don’t count.
So overhearing Junior Sister Jiang seemingly being bullied in her own courtyard, Yu Yu’s first reaction was...
Who did it?!
Such nerve!
Do they not know that not long ago a Martial Arts Grandmaster Fifth Layer lost even their Dantian for trying to mess with Junior Sister Jiang?
Yet, just as this thought crossed Yu Yu’s mind, she seemed to hear Junior Sister Jiang’s voice again...
"Ah... it seems Senior Sister Yu is here!"
Yu Yu: "???"
No, evidently she’s not being hit, otherwise, how could she speak like that?
The next moment... the noises that could be heard nearing the courtyard suddenly vanished.
In this situation, Yu Yu quickly realized... it must be Junior Sister Jiang, or someone else, setting up a soundproof barrier.
But whether the person who set it up is male or female, sect disciple or otherwise...
An image suddenly flashed in Yu Yu’s mind.
Junior Sister Jiang’s sweetheart?!
Immediately, Yu Yu felt a hint of shock, if it really is as she thought, then this person’s nerve is way too big.
Actually coming right into the Wuxiang Sect to do that... that kind of thing with Junior Sister Jiang?!
If those who admire Junior Sister Jiang from within or outside the sects knew, they probably wouldn’t sleep well at night.
Unexpectedly, she arrived at such a time, Yu Yu felt a bit awkward and was about to quietly turn and leave when the soundproof barrier behind her disappeared again.
Soon after, the sound of hurried footsteps came out.
"Senior Sister, you’ve come?"
Jiang Lingyue opened the courtyard door, looking at Yu Yu who had just turned away not long ago, and spoke.
Although her tone was calm, Yu Yu sharply noticed that Junior Sister Jiang’s voice seemed to have a bit of a tremble to it...
Unsure of what exactly happened just now.
She turned around to look at Jiang Lingyue, and seeing her caused Yu Yu nearly to lose composure.
Jiang Lingyue’s face was flushed with redness visible here and there.
Even a blind person could sense something was amiss at this moment.
"Junior Sister Jiang, I heard your voice earlier, is there someone else inside? If it’s inconvenient, I can come by later." Yu Yu, feeling embarrassed, quickly spoke up.
Although she hadn’t experienced such things herself before, the situation now was enough to guess a few clues.
"No problem, it’s quite convenient." Upon hearing this, Jiang Lingyue’s face turned visibly redder.
Senior Sister Yu surely heard something!
Mainly, each True Disciple’s residence is spaced fairly wide apart.
And Jiang Lingyue thought after all this time, she couldn’t just simply cry out and surrender right away.
So she didn’t even let Lu Ye set up the soundproof barrier.
Quite convenient...
A moment later, following Jiang Lingyue into the courtyard, they saw someone else standing inside.
"Senior Sister, this is my brother-in-law Lu Ye."
"Brother-in-law, this is my senior sister Yu Yu..."
Following Jiang Lingyue into the courtyard, though her face was a bit flushed, she introduced them.
Previously, noises had already been overheard by her senior sister, and given her current state... saying no one else was in the courtyard would be too obvious a lie.
So Jiang Lingyue decided not to hide it.
At this moment, Yu Yu thought to herself "so I was right, it really was her brother-in-law!"
Yu Yu recalled last time seeing her brother-in-law once, his appearance wasn’t too different from the one standing before her.
Suddenly, an incredible thought passed through Yu Yu’s mind.
That Zhou Family Ancestor who had been crippled...
Like others, Yu Yu knew that within the sect, there was no one whose strength surpassed that of the Zhou Family Ancestor.
Therefore, the one who made the Zhou Family Ancestor part from the Martial Dao must be someone outside of Wuxiang Sect.
And within the Wuxiang Sect, the only outsider for now... could it just be Junior Sister Jiang’s brother-in-law?!
Thinking this, Yu Yu’s heartbeat slightly quickened, feeling like... she might have stumbled onto some truth.
Her brother-in-law... is someone who could cripple a Grandmaster Fifth Layer in an instant?!
Hiss...
Looks young, is this Lu Ye really so formidable?
Plus, this name, why does it feel like she’s heard it somewhere else before?
Currently, the most widespread name in the Northern Territory is undoubtedly Chen Beixuan, but the name Lu Ye doesn’t sound unfamiliar to Yu Yu either.
She just can’t recall for now why she’s heard it once before.
...
Yu Yu didn’t stay too long in Jiang Lingyue’s courtyard, deciding to take her leave shortly after having this thought.
Firstly, the two of them might still have other things to do, secondly, Yu Yu felt that she needed a moment to calm down.
But just before leaving, Lu Ye suddenly recalled something.
He too thought, why does the name Yu Yu sound somewhat familiar?
After a brief moment, Lu Ye remembered, it seemed someone with a similar name to Lingyue’s senior sister existed.
Just recently seen in the Western Territory, a Mortal Realm Grandmaster... the Mortal Realm Fifth Layer from Shangxiao Sect, Yu You.
"By the way, Senior Sister Yu, are you acquainted with someone named Yu You?"
Since she was Lingyue’s senior sister, Lu Ye naturally addressed her as Senior Sister.
If people outside knew, nowadays Chen Beixuan actually called a mere Postnatal Ninth Layer woman Senior Sister...
Hearing this name, Yu Yu, who was about to say goodbye, froze for a moment.
"I... do know, Junior Brother Lu, how do you know him? He’s my uncle."
She does know him, and he’s her uncle? No wonder they both have the surname Yu.
"I happened to meet him previously in the Western Territory. Suddenly remembered Senior Sister Yu’s name was somewhat similar, just curious." Upon hearing, Lu Ye explained with a smile.
After hearing this, Yu Yu nodded and said, "Then I won’t disturb you anymore, I’ll come find Junior Sister Jiang another time. If you need anything, feel free to contact me."
Having said this, Yu Yu quickly left.
At the same time, somewhat curious about what Lu Ye just said, she planned to ask her uncle via the Communication Jade Token upon returning, he actually met Lu Ye before?
Watching Senior Sister leave, Jiang Lingyue turned her head and surprisedly said: "You came back from the Western Territory?"
