After it was all done, Tao Yi Xuan called Guo Yin Da and Guo Xin to his tent and told them about his arrangement with Sima You Yue.

“Young Master, are you really planning to place your hopes into the hands of a young lady that you just met?” Guo Xin frowned, feeling like it was rather inappropriate. Sima You Yue was not as strong as they were. Would she really be able to let Young Master return to the clan?

“Do you have a better idea?” Tao Yi Xuan asked.

“…” He really didn’t.

“Don’t feel like Sima You Yue is young and therefore unreliable. Based on the way I see it, she is a lot more reliable than many others.” Tao Yi Xuan said.

“Young Master, do you have so much confidence in her?”

“Yes, she is not very strong, and there are many on this island who will be able to suppress her. However, strength is not just based off cultivation level. She has many helpers by her side, and she will definitely bring us fortune.” Tao Yi Xuan said confidently.

At the very least, they didn’t have the reputation to get the old monster to let them off.

They didn’t have any ancient spirit beasts by their sides either, and they were even protective of her.

“If I did not guess wrongly, the one who let her cross and enter was not anyone else but the Island Master who does nothing but idle about the island all day.” Tao Yi Xuan guessed.

“The Island Master?”

“On this island, is there anybody who is able to soundlessly seize a helmsman’s boat?” He asked.

Not at all!

Although the helmsman was fat and lazy, his abilities are true. If you wanted to seize his boat, wasn’t that the same as asking for death?

“However, his relationship with the Island Master is very good and they often drink together. I’m guessing that Helmsman Tuo definitely got him drunk and seized his boat and took it for a joyride.” Tao Yi Xuan said, “Furthermore, the name of our Island Master, isn’t it Shao Gong?

“Helmsman Tuo, Tuo Shao Gong, these two names are similar! But isn’t the Island master called Tuo Hong Yu?” Guo Xin asked.

“That is the name he commonly uses. When he secretly came out to play before, the name he used was Shao Gong. That is why many people also know that he has this name as well.” Tao Yi Xuan explained, “If it was someone from the island, we would have been able to guess his identity long ago. Those from the outside have no way of knowing that he also goes by the name Shao Gong.”

“When you say it like that, it sounds very possible!” Guo Yin Da said, “We all have masters like Lord Helmsman Tuo. I didn’t think that Young Master would have let them in.”

“It’s not about letting them in or not, but that Island Master very obviously took an interest in them. Otherwise, he wouldn’t appear to protect her.” This was the real reason Tao Yi Xuan was willing to work with Sima You Yue.

Since she was someone that Island Master had set his sights on, he definitely wouldn’t ignore her if she ended up in a pinch. Since that was the case, even if he wasn’t able to survive, he could make the Guo Clan’s future miserable!

And who knows, he might really be able to obtain the antidote. She was so confident that her confidence boostered his.

…

As they were talking about Sima You Yue, Sima You Yue was also talking about Tao Yi Xuan.

“Junior Sister, are you really willing to work together with that guy?!” Han Miao Shuang felt like this kid was too small and didn’t even have a good backer. He could be killed off by his family so easily.

“Since I’m the one who took the initiative to rescue them, I’m thinking that he should be the opportunity that Yin Lin talked about. As long as we help him return to the clan and he takes the seat of the Young Master, he will be able to look for Master and Teacher Ge.” Sima You Yue said.

“But his current situation is so terrible. If we follow him, won’t we waste a lot of time?”
