Sima You Yue thought that Yin Su Su would know quite a bit more, but she shook her head instead, saying, “I only know this much. It was also because I just happened to see them. However, I don’t like the Yuan Clansmen. That’s why I don’t pay them attention either. This time, it was also because I heard that you were going to meet the Yuan Clansmen and thought of the last time you helped me, so I decided to give you a little warning.”

Sima You Yue was rather disappointed but she recovered and started chatting with Yin Su Su about other things.

After half an hour passed, Yin Su Su stood up and said goodbye. Before she left, she took out a jade bottle and placed it in Sima You Yue’s hands.

“This is a mark of my Yin Clan. If you should encounter any troubles while you’re in the Fifth State, use this to seek out my men. If you have any needs, you may just order them to get it done.” Yin Su Su said.

Sima You Yue considered rejecting it. She and Yin Su Su were not really considered close, so it wouldn’t be too good for her to casually accept her things.

“I know that you have the Xuan Yuan Pavilion helping you, but the Xuan Yuan Pavilion will not be able to help you every single time. Who knows, if anything urgent happens, this might be able to help you.” Yin Su Su left after speaking without waiting for Sima You Yue to reject her as she opened the door and left.

Sima You Yue lowered her head and looked at the jade bottle in her hand. She sighed as she went to lock her door.

Yin Su Su had told her these things and had even left her an escape route like this. That was also because she had saved some of the people from the Yin clan before. For people like them, the gratitude they owed her would not turn into vengeance like it did for Eastern Lai Li. However, they didn’t like to owe her either.

If accepting this would give them a peace of mind, then she would just accept it.

For the next few days, Yin Su Su did not come to seek out Sima You Yue again and she happily rested. She stayed in her house reading books all the way until some servant girls notified her that they had arrived.

She kept her things away and found that many people were already waiting on the deck. She looked around but she did not find Yin Su Su.

“Young Miss, she has already gotten off the ship.” The servant girl seemed to have guessed what she was thinking and said.

Sima You Yue was shocked. She asked, “Does this spatial ship belong to the Yin Clan?”

“That’s right.” The servant girl smiled, “Young Miss has instructed us that you have no need to pay the fees the next time you take our spatial ship.”

After speaking, she returned the fees that she had collected before.

Sima You Yue finally understood. It was no wonder Yin Su Su was able to find out that she was on the ship later on. It turned out that this belonged to her clan in the first place.

Yin Lang had helped her figure things out the last time, and this spatial ship belonged to the Yin Clan as well and now this item. This Yin Clan really was extremely powerful and rich.

After handing her the ticket, she got off the spatial ship. She didn’t recognise a single one of those passengers, so she went out and bought a copy of the Fifth State’s map.

Although the map was a little expensive, the cities in the Fifth State were mapped out in detail. There were even some summaries of a few powers written by the side.

Sima You Yue looked at the map and thought about how the map in her brain was also quite detailed, and couldn’t help but think of Helmsman Tuo again. He had told her his map would be of use to her again, but also seemed to say she wouldn’t return to the Lost Place again.

She had no idea what he meant.

Since she couldn’t figure it out, she wouldn’t bother to think about it. This was her modus operandi. She believed that she would figure it out once she got there. Since she didn’t understand it yet, then the time had not yet come.

Curiosity killed the cat, and this way of thinking had saved her life more or less.

She found a quiet place to study the map and knew that the Yuan Clan was not far from her. She would arrive in two days by teleportation array. However, the Yuan Clansmen were rather guarded. The city she was in, Kangmar City, didn’t have a teleportation array at all. She could only head to the nearest city and get there on her own.
