Chapter 137: Heading to the Beast Tamers Guild
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
The meeting had been going on for less than two hours. Ever since they had come out from the conference hall, the face of every single attendant was brimming with confidence, as if they had an extremely perfect future in sight.
Sima You Yue only came out after the attendants, so when the attendants saw Sima You Yue, they really felt extremely gratified.
Sima You Yue had neither flaws nor hesitation. Their Master was not beaten but actually planned everything out so well within such a short amount of time.
Nobody ever knew that the Master they thought nothing much of had actually was overflowing with such a vast amount of leadership abilities.
“Young Master.” Chun Jian had been waiting outside the entire time. When she saw Sima You Yue emerge, she went forward and asked, “Young Master, Young Master Qu and the others have come and they have already been waiting for quite a while.”
“Fatty and the others have come? Where are they?” Sima You Yue asked.
“They are waiting outside.” Chun Jian said, “We don’t have that many houses now, so we could only let them wait outside.”
“I got it.” Sima You Yue said, “Steward, you can carry on.”
“Yes, this old servant will take his leave.” The Steward gave a bow as he turned around to leave.
Chun Jian brought Sima You Yue to the front. Seeing that quite a few people were standing there, she quickened her pace and walked forward.
“You Yue.” They turned around and saw her walking when they heard the sound of her footsteps.
Sima You Yue saw the worry on the faces of Bei Gong Tang and the others and smiled at them, saying, “I’m so sorry that you don’t even have a place to sit right now.”
“You Yue, we heard that you are going to leave the Academy and came over to take a look.” Bei Gong Tang said. “How’s your body right now?”
“That’s right, I heard that quite a few of your bones were shattered. How are you now, are you still hurting anywhere?” Fatty Qu asked.
Sima You Yue shook her head, saying, “How could it have been that serious, I merely fainted for a few days and healed by the time I woke up.”
“Really?” Wei Zi Qi looked at Sima You Yue as she moved her body, proving that she was completely fine. Only then did everyone relax.
“Let’s continue this conversation somewhere else. Right now, the General’s residence doesn’t have any place that can properly entertain you.” Sima You Yue said, “We can go to the teahouse nearby.”
The five of them entered the tea house and looked for a private room. When they sent the tea, the shopkeeper took a few more glances at Sima You Yue.
Sima You Yue picked up the tea cup and said to Fatty Qu, “Fatty, I offer this toast to you, to thank you for helping my clan in my time of need.”
“You Yue, I’m a bit unaccustomed to how formal you’re being.” Fatty Qu said as he scratched the back of his head.
Sima You Yue smiled as she downed the cup of tea. After that, she filled up another cup as she said to Wei Zi Qi, “The help received from the Beast Tamers Guild should be because you sought help from your Granduncle, right. Thank you, Zi Qi.”
Wei Zi Qi smiled as he waved his hands, holding the teacup as he drank the cup of tea along with Sima You Yue.
Sima You Yue poured her third cup of tea, saying, “This cup of tea is to express my gratitude at your supply of pills during this season.”
Ouyang Fei and Bei Gong Tang grasped the cups and drank the tea.
“You Yue, I heard that the current situation of the Sima Clan is not good. Do you have any plans?” Fatty Qu asked.
“Of course I do.” Sima You Yue said, “Those few people think it’s so easy to take the opportunity to split up the Sima Clan’s property amongst themselves. Although Grandfather and the others are not around, I’m still here and I won’t let the Sima Clan be any weaker than it was before. I will increase its influence even more!”
“What do you plan to do?” Wei Zi Qi asked.
Sima You Yue smiled, “I’ll still need your help for this…”
On the second day, Sima You Yue followed Wei Zi Qi to the Beast Tamers Guild to meet the Vice President of the guild.
“Granduncle, You Yue has come.” Wei Zi Qi brought Sima You Yue to the living room as he said to the person on the opposite side.
Sima You Yue bowed her waist slightly as she said, “Greetings to the Vice President.”
The Vice President nodded, saying, “Fifth Young Master, take a seat.”
“Thank you Vice President. You can just call me You Yue.”
Sima You Yue and Wei Zi Qi sat down as the servants immediately served tea.
“You Yue, Zi Qi came to find me yesterday, saying that I definitely had to meet you. Is there something up?” The Vice President asked.
“It’s like this, after I regained consciousness, I heard the Steward tell me about the help the Beast Tamers Guild had accorded us. I heard that it was because they were following your orders, so I wanted to come and express my gratitude. Also, there are also a few things that I wish to discuss with Vice President.”
“Although I did not interact much with your Grandfather, I know that he was an upright man. Added on to that, the fact that you and Zi Qi have such a good relationship, it’s no big deal with me to help you.” The Vice President said, “As for the situation regarding your shop, you can send men to propose and firm up something.”
“With regards to this, I need to discuss with the attendants, so I wanted to use Zi Qi to come and look for you.” Sima You Yue said, “Vice President, I’m not here to seek assistance, but to form a partnership with the Beast Tamers Guild.”
“Partnership?” The Vice President looked at Sima You Yue and didn’t know how he could possibly form a partnership with them. “The decisions made on behalf of the Beast Tamers Guild cannot be made by me alone. If you want to form a partnership with the Beast Tamers Guild, you need to take out something that will cause the heart of the guild to move.
“Since I’ve already come, it’s natural that I’ve thought of this.” Sima You Yue said.
“Then tell me, how do you plan to partner the Beast Tamers Guild?” The Vice President asked.
“The Sima Clan needs a few Spirit Beasts that have already been tamed, I hope that Beast Tamer Master Guild will be able to supplement what we need for awhile.” Sima You Yue said, “As for repayment, I’m willing to help the Beast Tamers Guild tame a number of Saint Beasts!”
“What did you say?! You can tame Saint Beasts?!”
The Vice President and Wei Zi Qi were stunned and thought that they had heard something fantastical.
Sima You Yue nodded, saying, “That’s right. I wonder whether or not the Beast Tamers Guild will be able to accept this condition in exchange?”
“You Yue, you’re a Beast Tamer Master?” Wei Zi Qi looked at Sima You Yue. Even though he lived with her under the same roof everyday, she gave him surprise after surprise.
Sima You Yue nodded.
The gaze with which the Vice President used to look at Sima You Yue changed. He said, “You have tamed a Saint Beast before?”
“Yup.”
“How high was its rank?”
“Fourth Rank.”
Wei Zi Qi was looking at Sima You Yue as if she was some kind of weird animal. Granduncle had told him before that talented individuals would have unusually good outcomes. However, up to now, he had not yet managed to tame a Saint Beast, while Sima You Yue had actually tamed a Fourth Ranked Saint Beast.
Even his Granduncle, as the Vice President of the Beast Tamers Guild, who had lived a few hundred years, but even he could only tame sixth ranked Saint Beast.
Furthermore, her Spiritual energy was higher than his, and was even an Alchemist.
He massaged his forehead, was this person really someone living together with him?
No way, how was she human at all. She was clearly a perverse genius!
“Empty blustering.” The Vice President regained his calm as he said while looking at Sima You Yue.
“I can prove it.” Sima You Yue said, “If the Guild has any untamed Spirit Beast, I can tame it on the spot. You can take it as a token of my sincerity for wanting to partner with you.”
“Alright, a Saint Beast just came in two days ago. We were actually planning to tame it two days later, but we’ll give it for you to try on now.” The Vice President grew some interest in this little lad and wanted to let him give it a try when he thought of the Spirit Beasts that were just sent over. He wanted to see if he was really as good as he claimed and could tame a Saint Beast!
Sima You Yue smiled confidently, “Okay!”
