Sima You Yue looked at the smile hanging on his lips and raised her head to see a Blood Demon Tree.
A gust of wind blew past and the leaves of the Blood Demon Tree rustled.
With both hands, she took the tea and said with a smile, "Thank you, City Lord Li, for your great hospitality."
"Since you have to go to the Blood Arena, I wont tarry you." Li Hong said, "I hope to have the opportunity to invite you for tea in the future."
"I, Si Yue, will take my leave." Sima You Yue cupped her fists in goodbye as she left the residence.
Li Hong watched as she left, and that graceful left with her. He released his blood-thirsty aura and his eyes shone. He didnt look like a blind person at all.
He rubbed his neck, saying, "I always feel so gloomy when Im locked up in there."
"Dont struggle anymore. You cant overpower me, you should just stay in there obediently."
"Little Tree, how is it? Are you certain?"
The Blood Demon Tree rustled.
"Hehe, thats good"
On the other side, Sima You Yue exited the City Lords residence. She didnt let the coachmen go with her, choosing instead to walk to the Blood Arena with Little Seven.
"Yue Yue, why didnt you let them take us there?" LIttle Seven asked, "The competition in the Blood Arena is about to begin."
Sima You Yue called out Ya Guang and sat upon him, letting him take them to the Blood Arena.
"That City Lord is too strange. It is better for us to head to the Blood Arena ourselves."
"Yue Yue, you found him strange as well?" Little Seven asked, "I dont know which part was off about him, but it did feel really weird after we entered. That tea as well. I didnt want to drink it after smelling it."
"That Blood Demon Tree. It reeked of blood." Sima You Yue said.
"Reeked of blood?"
"You didnt drink the tea but you knew that the smell was weird. That tea smells very fragrant at first, but the moment it enters your mouth, it exudes a faint fragrance of blood." Sima You Yue explained, "That scent of blood is very light, but we still discovered it."
"Those were tea leaves from the Blood Demon Tree. So youre saying that the Blood Demon Tree was the one reeking of blood!" Little Seven concluded.
"Also, that City Lord was too strange." Sima You Yue said, "Did you realise or not that he kept inadvertently talking about the Blood Demon Tree?"
Little Seven thought for a bit, saying, "It seems so."
"He wanted us to notice that tree." Sima You Yue said, "If something was off about that tree, he shouldnt have wanted us to know about it, and even less so try to get us to notice it. It was just too strange for him to do that."
"Indeed so." Little Seven said, "The moment I saw the Blood Demon Tree, I felt uncomfortable. It was so strange. Then, Yue Yue, did you figure anything out?"
Sima You Yue shook her head, "Lets talk again after discussing things with them."
When they arrived at the Blood Arena, the competition for the night had already started. The manager brought them directly to the private room.
When Sima You Yue went upstairs, she watched as Bi Sheng said something to the worker, but nobody was on the stage.
"Has the competition for the night not started yet?" She asked the one who was leading her.
"It has already begun. However, because you had not yet arrived, everyone was waiting for you." He replied.
"Waiting for us?" Sima You Yue was rather puzzled.
"We are here. Lord Si Yue, you may ask them." The person led Sima You Yue there and turned around to leave without answering her.
Sima You Yue entered and saw Shi Chen and Feng Kai sitting at the table. Mu Lian Xin had come as well, but the mood in the house was rather gloomy.
"Whats wrong? Why are you all down and out?" Sima You Yue asked.
"Boss, youre here!" Feng Kai immediately became excited.
"Whats wrong?"
