Capítulo 963: Chapter 568:
Zhao Rong’s smile finally relaxed a bit.
The transparent woman suddenly reached out and pointed to the position on his chest.
Zhao Rong looked down and realized, “Are you talking about the little red flower you gave ?”
That very strange blood-red Nine Heavens Cold Palace flower, which he had previously tucked into his bosom.
The transparent woman nodded.
Zhao Rong thought for a mont, “You an, use this little red flower as a token? Next ti we et, I’ll bring it along?”
The transparent woman nodded vigorously.
Then she seed to beco happy and excited again, floating around Zhao Rong, spinning and dancing.
In the autumn breeze, her sleeves fluttered, resembling a goddess from a mural of distant lands.
Zhao Rong also smiled and spun around, holding her hands with two fingers, facing each other, floating and spinning together in the air…
He was quite familiar with this weightless floating under the moonlight.
Afterward, the two of them, playing and spinning all the way, returned to the central area of the Wangque City ruins, back to the side of the Crystal Pavilion where they first t.
They passed through the hot springs blooming with Nine Heavens Cold Palace flowers, arriving outside the Great Hall which the little fish had once pointed out to Zhao Rong.
At this mont, the transparent woman turned her head to glance at the do, as if recalling sothing, and suddenly stopped.
She tugged at Zhao Rong’s sleeve and pointed upward at the do.
Zhao Rong turned back, curious, “What’s up?”
This ruin nad Wangque is located inside a massive stone cave.
Zhao Rong previously speculated that it might be inside the Sacrificial Moon Mountain, or an underground cavern, or a hollowed-out mountain.
And the do of this cave was very unique.
Half of it was rock, while the other half was made of glazed material, shaped like a crescent moon.
So when you look up, it looks like a gigantic bright moon.
Moreover, the glazed crescent do emitted a blue light, and if you looked closely, there seed to be so kind of flowing liquid above the glazed do.
The blue light ca from them.
Looking through the glaze, there were also so unknown light-blue lines inside these flowing liquids, resembling serpentine paths of unknown trajectories, fluctuating in strength and transformation…
This place was sowhat like… an aquarium Zhao Rong had visited in a previous life, like sunlight filtered through glass, only with a different color.
He didn’t know what the liquid above was.
Also, the glaze in this world wasn’t as translucent as the glass in his past life, but more hazy…
At this mont, the transparent woman pulled Zhao Rong and flew toward the glazed crescent do above.
Zhao Rong said nothing more and followed.
Soon, they flew up to the glazed do.
Only then, upon close inspection, did Zhao Rong truly confirm that there was indeed water above the stone cave, possibly… a lake.
Connecting this to Sacrificial Moon Mountain…
He suddenly had a faint suspicion rising in his heart.
The transparent woman looked up at the glazed crescent do in front of them, as if she could see through the glaze into the things in the lake behind.
The next second, as if she finally found sothing, she pulled Zhao Rong’s sleeve and moved a hundred and eighty paces to the left, arriving at a spot.
The transparent woman’s right sleeve, empty, lifted up, pointing at the glaze above.
Zhao Rong looked up and fixed his gaze. Suddenly, he spotted a dark object, lying quietly behind the glazed do.
The shape vaguely resembled… a furnace.
Zhao Rong was taken aback and blurted out, “Thunder and Rainbow Purple Gold Furnace?”
“Indeed.” Finally confirming a certain suspicion, he breathed a sigh of relief, “Behind is probably the Moon Pond at the peak of Sacrificial Moon Mountain, where my furnace was thrown by the young emperor. Inside the lake… it’s filled with thunder.”
Saying this, Zhao Rong felt that everything he had seen made sense, “No wonder I thought the blue light behind this glazed do seed familiar, those consistent pale blue lines inside should be the arcs of thunder…”
He chuckled and shook his head, turning around, looking down at the majestic ruins below.
“Wangque City…” Zhao Rong murmured softly, “The forr Wangque City should have been built at the peak of Sacrificial Moon Mountain, gazing at the palace above the heavens. But now, it seems soone didn’t want this abandoned ancient city to be destroyed, so they used so great power to elevate the Sacrificial Moon Mountain by an entire layer, which is the peak we see today.”
Zhao Rong nodded, “No wonder I said that the mountaintop showed no traces left by the Li Clan… As of now, it seems it was done by the ancient Li Clan before they left, and besides… they still exist sowhere in the Xuanhuang Realm.”
His gaze shifted again to the Crystal Pavilion below, where not long ago, it was the ‘gate’ ntioned by the little fish.
Luo Xiu, the little fish, and sixteen other Li won were all taken inside by a certain esteed person.
“Are they all in that Moon Palace?”
Zhao Rong squinted, pondering softly, “That esteed person should indeed be soone from the Li Clan. Then why have they returned to Great Li now? Moreover, it seems like the dual moon appearances during the sealing ceremony I held weren’t entirely due to my and Brother Yi Wu’s efforts…”
He pondered, “Does the Du Gu Empress Dowager know… or is this sothing she orchestrated? Indeed, if the sealing ceremony succeeds, the biggest beneficiaries would be the Du Gu family and the young emperor, is this what the Li Clan aims to achieve?
“Then our skillful Du Gu Empress Dowager is no doubt soone from the Li Clan, and the Music Workshop she held and the faith she conveyed… I’m just not sure if the late Emperor of Great Li’s death is linked to her.
