When Ou Yu Ling met Sima You Yue, she spoke her intentions straightforwardly, “I came this time because I wish to ask you to instruct me in the poison arts.”

Although Sima You Yue didn’t have a bad impression of Ou Yu Ling, and even knew that she had spoken out a few times on her behalf, she still didn’t have the best impression of this woman. Who asked her to be someone on Qing Shi’s side!

“My skills in the poison arts are insignificant. I just play around with it sometimes. How could I possibly teach you?” She rejected her.

“So you are admitting that you know poison arts.” Ou Yu Ling said.

“Eh?”

Sima You Yue was puzzled at her reaction. It seemed that she cared more about this answer?

“The Poison Sect has started a gamble, guessing that you are not a Poison Master and that the poison was not one that you had refined yourself. I came for the answer.” Ou Yu Ling said.

Sima You Yue cursed inwardly, but she could not show it on her face. If she could, she wanted to throw her out.

“You brat, you’re angry but you can still hold it in.” Ou Yu Ling looked through her, making it so Sima You Yue was unable to maintain her straight face.

Shouldn’t she pretend not to see it even though she did?

“Right, I have another question.” Ou Yu Ling said, “Those three days of turmoil that Qing Cai went through, was it legitimate? After the poison left, I examined his body but there was nothing out of the ordinary.”

“You want to hear the truth?”

“Mm. I will not tell anybody.”

“Nope. Actually, he would have recovered if he released it immediately. However, if he didn’t, then it would last three days.”

Ou Yu Ling: “…”

Because of the incident regarding the medicinal catalyst, they thought that she had intentionally targeted him, and didn’t know whether or not to believe her. However, they dared not gamble with it and had no choice but to choose to believe her.

She didn’t expect that she had just said it casually.

“Aren’t you afraid that I lied and will go tell them the truth?” She asked.

“So what? In any case, everyone knows that Qing Cai and I will never get along. It will be normal for me to mess around. If you tell them, at the very most, others will find that I’m a little more devious. Qing Cai has already experienced it anyway.” Sima You Yue didn’t care about it at all and paid no heed to whether or not she would expose her.

“You’ve been rather popular lately. Have you ever considered joining the Poison Sect while you’re at it?” Ou Yu Ling asked.

“Join the Poison Sect?”

“That’s right. I heard that you wanted to join the Alchemy Sect, Array Sect, Seeker Spirit Sect. So, it’s not a big deal to join one more.”

Sima You Yue rejected her immediately, “If Qing Shi knew that you let me join the Poison Sect, what would he think?”

“My relationship with him is my relationship with him. Your relationship with the Poison Sect is between us. It’s not the same.” Ou Yu Ling said, “In any case, we’re not very close to one another. It’s just that there are some things in which we are linked.”

“Actually, I didn’t join the Array Sect or Seeker Spirit Master Sect. it’s just that the people outside are spreading rumors.” Sima You Yue said, “I’ve just been focusing on learning music attacks in the Music Sect recently. The only reason I will hail Sixth Elder as my Master is because Qing Cai killed her Granddaughter.”
