Chapter 622 Ugly?

Wu La Mai left with his sons, leaving Shui Qing Man, Wu La Li and Wu La Xiu behind.

Wu La Xiu ran to Sima You Yue and stretched a hand forwards and poked her cheek, saying, "Lil' Sis, you're so ugly right now. If it weren't for the fact that I had seen how you look like now, I would never have believed how pretty you used to be."

He dared to insult her? Sima You Yue wanted to glare hatefully at him but she couldn't control her eyes. She could only look at the top of his head.

She would remember this grudge! He dared to call her ugly? Once she was well, she would definitely teach him a lesson! Ninth Bro was it? Hmph, she would wait and see would have the last laugh!

"You Yue is someone who holds a grudge. You actually dared to call her ugly? Just wait and see how she ignores you from now on." Wu La Li crossed both his hand over his chest as he said.

"Huh? No way." Wu La Xiu poked SIma You Yue's cheek again,saying bitterly, "Lil' Sis, although you're ugly, I didn't leave you behind, did I? Look, I'm even accompanying you right now. You can't abandon me, okay!"

Sima You Yue secretly rolled her eyes. Was this guy the most annoying because he was the youngest?

She couldn't be bothered to deal with him. Once she was certain that she was safe, she focused on digesting the huge feast she had today.

When she was absorbing those light purple bolts of lightning, her body was also recuperating quickly. Along with the pills that she had eaten earlier, she was able to move her body after a day's time. She realised as she grew, stronger, the weaker the seal over her divine devil body would be, and the quicker she could heal. However, with the weakening of the seal came a higher probability that her body would explode.

Her consciousness continued to focus on her body's condition, and she realised that there was a thin strand of a violet water beast bloodline inside her. Because of this, her remodeled body was even stronger than most other spirit beasts.

"Mother, why do I feel as if the speed of which her physical body is recovering is rather abnormal?" Wu La Xiu would go over to watch over Sima You Yue whenever he was bored. He realised that her torn and tattered body was actually recovered at supernatural speeds. Even her hair that had been burnt off completely was beginning to grow.

"It's probably because she has a unique physique." Wu La Li said, "Don't' humans have various types of physiques?"

"Maybe." Wu La Xiu nodded, "However, Lil' Sis's recuperative abilities are too good. It's even better than ours."

Shui Qing Man saw that Sima You Yue had already closed her eyes, and said, "This child carried many secrets. If she is willing to tell us, then she will. If not, then you are not to force her. Understand?"

"Yes, Mother." Wu La Xiu knew that she was talking to him and replied.

A few days later, Sima You Yue finally regained her ability to move. When she opened her eyes, the first thing she said to Wu La Xiu was, "I'm too ugly, don't talk to me."

Wu La Xiu, who was supporting her at the time, was immediately stunned. He turned to her, smiling sweetly, "Lil' Sis, you're so beautiful. Who dared to call you ugly? Ninth Bro will get rid of him!"

"Pfft-" Sima You Yue was amused at what he said, "You're sure that the person isn't you?"

"How could it have been me? I've always felt that Lil Sis, you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. There's no way I would call you ugly, right?" Wu La Xiu denied it immediately.

"Dear Xiu, You Yue is unable to walk by herself. You should carry her back." Shui Qing Man said.

"Huh?" Wu La Xiu was rather unwilling. He was the lofty prince of the violet water clan. He had the bloodline of the ancient beasts. How could he randomly carry a human on his back?

Even if that human was his sister, who was the most beloved of his beloveds.

"I understand, Ninth Bro hates that I'm ugly…" Sima You Yue said with a pout.

Wu La Xiu saw the way she was acting and knew that she was doing it on purpose. However, he still couldn't help but fall for it, "Fine, I'll carry you, okay?"

"Thanks, Ninth Bro." Sima You Yue beamed at him.

"..."

Wu La Xiu eventually carried Sima You yue back and sent her directly to her room. He placed her gently on the bed.

"Mother, I'm fine now. My wounds will continue to heal over the next few days. It's been a long time since you rested. Father's heart will hurt if you don't rest well." Sima You Yue said with a smile.

"Mother, we'll be here with You Yue. You can head back first to rest." Wu La Li said.

"Alright, then. You Yue, I'll come back to see you soon." Shui Qing Man said to Sima You Yue.

"Take care, Mother." Sima You Yue smiled as she watched Shui Qing Man leave. Then, she said to the remaining two, "Big Bro, Ninth Bro, you guys should head back to rest too."

"Don't worry, we're not tired. We want to take care of you." Wu La Xiu said.

Sima You Yue shot him a glare. Now that she had control her her eyes again, she could glare at whomever she wanted.

"Ninth Bro, I'm a girl, okay. I'll feel uncomfortable if you stayed." Sima You Yue said.

"Alright then, we will head back as well." Wu La Li turned to leave after speaking, dragging an unwilling Wu La Xiu with him.

Sima You Yue let out a long sigh once they had left. She flailed her arms and stomped her feet. Although they still felt a little numb, it was already much better than before. In order to prevent them from being suspicious, she didn't move her arms and legs at all. She was finally free now.

However, what she didn't know was that they had long known that her body was different from the average human.

She lay on the bed and examined how strong she currently was. She was at the advanced Divine Overlord rank, and a mere step away from entering the rank of a Divine Saint.She had traversed an entire rank in a single leap, and she was ecstatic about it. She was filled with gratitude towards Wu La Mai. If he had not given her his blood essence, she would probably have found it impossible to be increase to her current rank.

Initially, they thought that she did not know what was going on in the outside world because she didn't react no matter what they said. That was why they had also talked about how Wu La Mai had given her his blood essence. It was only then that she knew Wu La Mai had harmed his body by giving her his blood essence. If he wasn't careful, he might even cause his strength to weaken permanently.

However, he had still given it to her without regrets. Even if the main reason was because he didn't want Shui Qing Man to use her own blood essence to strengthen her instead.

"I'm already near the level of the Divine Saint. If I have enough strength, I will be able to advance in rank." She said with confidence, "However, I've just grown by so much that I'm in no rush to reach the Divine Saint rank. Although the lightning tribulations were powerful this time, it's also a contributing factor to my current strength. It's helped to ensure my foundations were solid.

"Father's body still seems quite weak after he's given me his essence. I'll rest for another two days to let my body stabilise before thinking of a way to strengthen him again."

When she focused on her dantian, she realised that the reservoir containing her lightning spirit energy was rather different. It had turned completely violet.

She recalled that Crimson Flame had told her to absorb it, but he never told her what for.

"Crimson Flame, why did you get me to absorb the lightning?" She just asked him directly.
