Chapter 447: Coming personally to apologise

Sima You Yue was currently reading a book in the house when she suddenly heard a knock on the door.

“Dear guest, the men from Heavenly Tiger Hall have come and asked to see you.” The servant said from outside.

Sima You Yue went to open the door. Seeing the servant, she said, “You’re sure they’ve come to see me, not to catch me?”

“Not at all, they Hall Master of Heavenly Tiger Hall has personally come and asked to see you to apologise in person.” The servant said.

“Didn’t they say that the Heavenly Tiger Hall was an unreasonable group? I’ve killed one of their branch leaders, but they’ve actually come personally to apologise instead of coming to catch me?” Sima You Yue mused.

“This Heavenly Tiger Hall is truly not a good place, but their Hall Master is still okay. He was a practicing and devoted buddhist, so the Heavenly Tiger Hall was handed to their younger brother over to handle. It’s only because of this that it became such a foul place.” The servant explained, “Dear guest, they are still waiting downstairs.”

“You can head down first.” Sima You Yue said.

“Okay, then I’ll head downstairs first.” The servant left after he spoke.

Sima You Yue watched the way the servant went downstairs and knew that he was no ordinary servant of the inn.

The other room doors had opened when they heard the knocking on her door. After hearing what the servant said, they asked, “You Yue, are we going downstairs?”

“Of course, we’ll definitely go.” Sima You Yue replied, “Zhuo Ran said before that the Heavenly Tiger Hall wasn’t too bad. However, it wouldn’t grow too big. Eventually, for whatever reason, it ended up in its current state. I’m guessing that it’s because of the younger brother that it ended up this way. Now that the Hall Master has come, we definitely have to go down and take a look.”

“Let’s go downstairs then.” Sima Lie said.

“Okay.”

Downstairs, Zhou Hai Mo and Innkeeper Qiu were drinking tea at a table. When Sima You Yue came downstairs, she raised an eyebrow when she saw them sitting opposite each other.

Innkeeper Chou would actually be drinking tea with someone else at the same table?

When Innkeeper Chou saw Sima You Yue and the others, he pursed his lips, saying, “There. He’s Sima You Yue.”

Zhou Hai Mo stood up and cupped his fist at Sima You Yue in greeting. He gave a big bow, saying, “Great Master Sima, this lowly one is Heavenly Tiger Hall’s Hall Master Zhou Hai Mo. I have specially come here to apologise for the wrong my Heavenly Tiger Hall has previously committed.”

When the others from Heavenly Tiger Hall saw that their own Hall Master was bowing, they simultaneously bowed in apology as well.

There were many people gathered outside the inn. Initially, they thought that they would be able to watch the Heavenly Tiger Hall clansmen would punish or capture Sima You Yue and the others. They thought that it was just an excuse when Innkeeper Chou said they were here to apologise.

However, they never expected that Heavenly Tiger Hall would really bow in apology when the two sides met face to face.

Sima You Yue watched Zhou Hai Mo and could feel that he was truly apologetic. However, one could tell at a glance that the others were just going along with it.

“Hall Master Zhou is too courteous.” Sima You Yue waved her hand.

She was actually a very easy going person. She would not slap a smiling person. Since the other party had come to apologise, she would not press the issue.

Of course, that was under the assumption that the apology was a genuine one.

Zhou Hai Mo took out an interspatial ring and offered it to Sima You Yue with both hands saying, “This is our gift of apology for offending Great Master. Great Master, please accept this.”

Sima You Yue took the ring and inspected it mentally. When she saw the things piled inside, she smiled and said, “Hall Master Zhou is too kind. If you do this, I’ll be rather embarrassed.”

“This is only right. That Zhou Shu Ren and Zhou Shu Yu were ignorant and offended Great Master. Losing his life was something he caused himself.” Zhou Hai Mo said, “I warned them long before not to stir trouble but they refused to listen. The fault it their own.”

Sima You Yue watched Zhou Hai Mo and saw that he was sincere. She said, “We are grateful that Hall Master Zhou does not blame. Since even Hall Master Zhou has come in person to apologise and has even offered compensation, let us not speak of the past grievances anymore. As long as the Heavenly Tiger Hall does not bother us, we will not stir up trouble with you guys either.”

It was only when Zhou Hai Mo heard what Sima You Yue said that he finally relaxed. He gave a big bow once again, saying, “Many thanks to Great Master Sima.”

The others from the Sima Clan saw Zhou Hai Mo put himself so low and Sima You Yue also said that he let it go, so they did not hold a grudge either. They also dropped their guard.

“Hall Master Zhou. I heard that one needs to ride on a flying beast for several months if one wishes to leave Heavenly Tiger Ridge. The other way is to take the teleportation array in Heavenly Tiger Hall.” Sima You Yue said.

“That’s right.” Zhou Hai Mo said, “In the past, we still communicated quite a lot with the outside world. However, ten over years ago, the teleportation array spoilt. Later on, no array master came to fix it. As such, our communication with the outside world was broken.”

“Could it be that nobody was willing to take a flying beast and leave?” Fatty Qu asked.

“It’s not that they were unwilling, but that they did not dare to.” Zhou Hai Mo said.

“Did not dare to? Why?”

“Because there are spirit beast clans living in the areas that are connected to this place. If we want to go out, we have to go past their territories. However, how could we have the strength to trespass in those spirit beast clans?

“Spirit Beast clans?” Sima You Yue looked at Innkeeper Chou, whose eyes showed that he was reminiscing to the time they were counting debts. Did he come here for this reason?

“The teleportation array is broken and we are surrounded by spirit beast clans. That’s why it’s been a long time since someone has come to Heavenly Tiger Hall. It’s also been a long time since someone left.” Zhou Hai Mo said.

“I heard that outsiders are not allowed to see the teleportation array. I wonder if we could take a look at that teleportation array?” Sima You Yue asked.

Right now, it wasn’t difficult for her to set up a teleportation array. However, she had to know the coordinates of the place. If she randomly set it up, she might not even leave the Heavenly Tiger Ridges and end up being sent directly into a spirit beast clan instead.

If she went to take a look at that broken teleportation array, who knows, she might be able to obtain the coordinates out there. If it really wasn’t possible, then they could only choose to traverse the spirit beast areas.

When Zhou Hai Mo heard this, his eyes shone, saying, “Of course you can! IF it is possible, I wish to invite you all as guests of our Heavenly Tiger Hall.”

Sima You Yue was an array master, and one talented at setting up arrays as well. This proved that her array skills were high. If she was able to fix their teleportation array, they would be able to go out in the future!

“We’re not going to stay over. We’ve already become used to things here. If we go over, we’ll definitely be unused to things over there.” Sima You Yue said, “We’ll continue to stay here and just go over to take a look at your teleportation array.”

“Ss-”

They actually dared reject the invitation of Heavenly Tiger Hall!

Everyone outside looked at Sima You Yue. He must have gone crazy!

“Third Bro, You Lin, Bei Gong. You guys follow me to Heavenly Tiger Hall to take a look.” Sima You Yue said, “Grandfather, take care of everyone and wait here for us.”

“Alright, you guys be careful.” Sima Lie was still worried for Sima You Yue.

“We will.” Sima You Yue said, “Oh right, that gamble that Innkeeper Chou set up? Not a single one of the participants could guess it right. As such, that money all belongs to the house. We’ve agreed to split it 50-50, so do split the money with Innkeeper Chou while you’re here.”

When she finished speaking, she nodded at Zhou Hai Mo and the two of them walked out together. Sima You Ran and the other two followed along with the other Heavenly Tiger Hall clansmen and left the inn.
