When Sima You Yue saw the Wu Clan Patriarch, she was momentarily stunned.

He looked very familiar, with a resemblance to a certain someone.

Patriarch Wu saw that she was staring at his face and he looked at her with a light smile.

“I was caught up in some issues earlier on and was unable to receive you, please do not take offense.”

“It is us who are intruding. We heard of the great name of Patriarch Wu when we were on the island, and are finally able to meet you today.” Sima Xiu Qi casually said.

“Haha, please come inside.” Patriarch Wu smiled widely and led them into the guest hall. “I heard that you came in from outside. Since you are here, then please stay a while longer.”

“Wouldn’t this bother you too much?” Sima Xiu Qi said, “The most important reason we came this time was to participate in the Crimson Pearl Convention. Now that the Crimson Pearl Convention is over, we will be leaving after a period of time.”

“Don’t you still have a bit of time? Just stay in our Wu Clan for two days. You don’t have anyone else you are familiar with, so why don’t you stay here.” Patriarch Wu said warmly.

“If so, then we will have to bother you.”

Sima You Yue sat down obediently. She didn’t listen to Grandfather and Patriarch Wu’s banter and, suddenly, had a premonition in her heart.

The Wu Clan…1, 2these two surnames were not similar, and should have been extremely different from one another. However, she subconsciously thought of them.

Wu Lingyu was a child that Old Devil Mo had picked up. As to where he had come from, what he was really named, she had no idea. Old Man Devil said that he had once asked the one to two year old Wu Lingyu what his name was, and he had once said ‘Wu’, so he had given him the name Wu Lingyu.

At that time, he was so young. So which character ‘Wu’ was he referring to?

It was not her fault for thinking too much. The reality was… Patriarch Wu and Wu Lingyu looked rather similar. Also, the Wu Clan gave her a very familiar feeling.

She thought of it now. She knew why she felt that the stone lion was so familiar. She had once seen this kind of stone lion in Wu Lingyu’s little realm. However, it was merely around the size of a fist.

She had asked him before what that was as it was unlike him. He had told her later on that this was something that was found inside his interspatial ring when he was young.

No wonder…

She didn’t know whether or not the Wu Clan had any relationship with Wu LIngyu. However, she had no plans to say anything. She would tell him later on. If he wanted to investigate, then he could do it himself. If he was not willing to, then she would just let this situation pass.

Once she had thought this through, she didn’t reveal anything. She thought about how her Master and the others had come here before and so she asked during the brief pause in the conversation between Sima Xiu Qi and Patriarch Wu, “Patriarch Wu, I heard that during the previous Crimson Pearl Convention, Xu Jin and Ge Lang once came to your residence?”

Patriarch Wu was stunned for a moment as he nodded and admitted, “They did. At that time, it was also after the Crimson Pearl Convention. We invited them over as well. At that time, there were many who invited them, but they replied to us alone. However, they left that very day.”

“Then when they were here, did they say anything?” Sima You Yue asked.

“Say anything?” Patriarch Wu looked at Sima You Yue a little puzzledly, “They merely casually conversed with us when they came. We wanted to invite them to join us, but they were unwilling, so we didn’t speak of it again. Then, they left.”
