Chapter 121: Becoming a discipleTranslator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Before a few days had passed, it was time to go back to school.
Since she had given up on fighting with the Nalan Clan, Sima You Yue returned to the academy and merely set a date for the men to come and collect the pills.
Once she returned to the dorm, Sima You Yue saw four people standing inside the house.
“Cough cough, what are you all doing here?” Seeing that Bei Gong Tang and the others all had long faces and thinking about how much it looked like she was on trial, she laughed as she asked.
“Say it, do we have to extort a confession from you or will you account for it truthfully.” Wei Zi Qi said.
“Account for what?” Sima You Yue blinked her eyes innocently.
“When did you become an Alchemist? During the entire time that we lived with you, we never realized it. If you didn’t reveal this during the banquet, it’s certain that we never would have found out that there was a second ranked Alchemist in our midst.” Bei Gong Tang said.
Fatty Qu walked beside Sima You Yue and patted her shoulders, saying, “Sigh, You Yue. It’s not that I don’t want to speak up for you this time, but it looks like they’re not going to let you off if you’re not going to account for it truthfully!”
“It started from last year. Last year, after I found out I could cultivate, and from a chance encounter, it was my first try with alchemy and after that I slowly learnt how.” Sima You Yue touched her nose, “Actually, it’s nothing much. You all were so busy every day, that’s why you never noticed me.”
“No matter what you say, it’s a fact that you kept this from us. In order to demonstrate your remorse, you have to make an entire feast for us in order to heal our wounded hearts.” Ouyang Fei finally revealed their motive this time.
Eh-
Sima You Yue looked over at the few of them, saying, “Okay, no problem. I’ll cook a large feast for our lunch today!”
Actually she knew that every single one of them had their own secrets and they would not really want to force her to tell them the truth. They merely wanted to rip her off.
However, it was lucky that she was an expert in cooking and treating them was not anything difficult.
Seeing that Sima You Yue had agreed, everyone’s long face turned warm.
“I want to eat Kung Pao Chicken.” Ouyang Fei said.
“I want to eat Sichuan poached sliced fish in hot chili oil.” Bei Gong Tang did not have the average preference in food.
“Mine is relatively simple. Anything that is yummy can be served.” Wei Zi Qi’s request appeared simple, but was actually the most difficult.
“Since You Yue had already agreed, then we’ll go and do our own things. We’ll just wait for lunch and we’ll have yummy things to eat.” Fatty Qu said.
“You Yue, call us once you’re done.” Bei Gong Tang turned around to return back to her own house after she finished speaking.
Wei Zi Qi and Ouyang Fei left as well, leaving behind Fatty Qu and Sima You Yue who were standing in the house.
“Oh right, You Yue, Master Fang sent people to send word that when you return back to the academy today, you should go look for him before it gets dark.”
