583: Chapter 543 Lantern Festival_1 583: Chapter 543 Lantern Festival_1 Gu Xiaosang finished speaking, making both Gu Xiaorou and Lu Chuan feel puzzled.
“I hadn’t heard about her visiting before.
Flower City is quite far from Carefree City.”
Gu Xiaosang stroked her chin, pondered for a mont, and said, “I’m not sure either, maybe she wants to develop her career elsewhere.
She must be tired of performing in Flower City all the ti.”
“The Lantern Festival… Doesn’t that an there will be a lot of lanterns set up outside?”
Lu Chuan asked.
“Yep, that’s right.
After all, it’s called the Lantern Festival.
Nothing is too abundant except for lanterns.”
Lu Chuan turned to Gu Xiaorou and said, “Let’s go take a look tonight then.
It’ll be a good chance for to learn about the traditional festivals in the Kunlun Domain.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaosang imdiately gave Lu Chuan a mischievous look, “I think you’re really just going for that dancer.
You better stay here; I’m afraid you’ll fall for her as soon as you see her.”
“Can’t you say anything pleasant?”
Lu Chuan said helplessly.
Gu Xiaosang leaned in close to Gu Xiaorou and whispered, “Aren’t you worried at all?
When those n outside heard that Hua Qianwu was coming, they all went mad.
So of these grown n even went to a rouge shop and bought makeup to put on themselves.”
“What do those crazies outside have to do with Lu Chuan?
I trust he’s not that type of person.”
Lu Chuan shrugged innocently, “I’ve seen too many delicately packaged superstars in the secular world; a minor dancer here won’t bewitch .
Stop talking nonsense.”
Gu Xiaosang pursed her lips but said no more.
Lu Chuan looked at Gu Xiaorou and continued to ask, “Xiaorou, what’s the situation with Flower City?”
“Flower City is a big city, about three to four tis larger than Carefree City.
It’s situated next to Flourishing Flower Valley, and it’s said that the environnt there is quite beautiful, filled with gorgeous seas of flowers.”
“Rumor has it that it’s a place of romance; many rich young n, when it cos to marrying, would go there for their wedding.”
Gu Xiaosang interjected imdiately, “How about you two get married there too, once it’s ti for your wedding?”
“That’s still a long way off.
Lu Chuan has his own matters to attend to in the Kunlun Domain.”
After saying that, Gu Xiaorou continued to look at Lu Chuan, “Well then, let’s go take a look tonight.”
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “No problem.
I’ll continue practicing Swordsmanship this afternoon.”
After saying this, he stood up, took out his bronze sword, and resud practicing the techniques from the sword manual.
Gu Xiaorou turned to Gu Xiaosang and asked, “Is this Hua Qianwu very famous?”
Gu Xiaosang’s curiosity was stronger than hers, so she knew much more about the things outside Carefree City.
“You could say that.
I heard she’s quite a renowned dancer in Flower City.”
“Within the Hua family, she ranks among the top ten.”
Gu Xiaosang asked again, “Aren’t you really worried about Lu Chuan?
Maybe Hua Qianwu ca specifically for him.”
Gu Xiaorou said with a helpless face, “Hua Qianwu and Lu Chuan have never crossed paths before.
How could she co specifically for him?
You think too much.
Go practice your Swordsmanship properly and stop having these wild thoughts.”
Gu Xiaosang pouted, and after being scolded, she obediently got up and turned to continue practicing Swordsmanship.
In the garden, Lu Chuan was imrsed in refining his Swordsmanship moves, and unconsciously, the afternoon passed by quickly.
As evening approached, Lu Chuan sheathed his Longsword and turned to walk towards Gu Xiaorou.
She had spent the entire afternoon sitting cross-legged in the sa spot, absorbing nature’s spiritual energy.
An afternoon of cultivation had only accumulated a pitiful strand of Spiritual Energy for her.
To break through to the Saint Realm and reach the Martial King Realm was still a far-off journey.
As Lu Chuan approached, she stopped her ditation and stood up, looking at him.
“Training’s over?
Then let’s go and see this so-called Lantern Festival.”
Lu Chuan could tell that Gu Xiaorou was sowhat expectant and also quite excited.
Although it wasn’t as obvious as with Gu Xiaosang, it was still clear enough for Lu Chuan to notice at a glance.
“Let’s go, let’s go out and have a look.”
Together, Lu Chuan and Gu Xiaorou arrived at the Gu family’s front courtyard and upon reaching the main gate, saw that Gu Xiaosang was already there waiting for them.
“Xiaosang, did you practice your swordsmanship well this afternoon?”
Xiaosang smiled awkwardly, “Sis, let’s not talk about that right now, there are so many fun things outside, co out and have a look.”
Hearing this, Gu Xiaorou sighed helplessly.
“I really can’t do anything with you.”
“Forget it, let’s not worry about other things for now, let’s see what this Flower Lantern Festival is all about.”
The trio walked out of Gu Family Manor.
They then arrived at the main thoroughfare of Carefree City.
The spacious avenue was wide enough to accommodate three large carriages side by side.
As evening approached, the streets were lined with various stalls, selling food, toys, and jewelry.
The array of stalls was dazzling, causing even Gu Xiaosang to suffer from choice paralysis.
The households near the street had hung all sorts of lanterns above their doors.
The lanterns were adorned with patterns of various bright flowers.
The entire street was illuminated by colorful lights, looking vibrant and festive, creating the impression that the dazzling array of flowers was about to bewitch the eyes.
“It looks really lively, doesn’t it?
There are so many people on the streets, I’ve never seen so many people in Carefree City all at once.”
The crowd was teeming, making it impossible for Lu Chuan to see the end.
“Later, Hua Qianwu will ride a flower carriage into Carefree City, traveling down the main thoroughfare.
She’ll stand on the carriage and dance, performing for the people on both sides of the road.”
“This type of performance is quite common in Flower City.
Over there, they have a convoy of five or six flower carriages passing by in succession, with beautiful dancers each taking their turn in the spotlight.”
“How about that, sounds pretty good, doesn’t it?”
Gu Xiaosang asked Lu Chuan with a smile.
“Indeed, it sounds great.
Based on what you’re saying, Flower City must be akin to a tourist city in the secular world?
People go there to eat, drink, have fun, and enjoy the beauty of won, luxuriating in enjoynt.”
Gu Xiaosang nodded slightly, “Exactly, it’s a city of entertainnt and leisure.
Many wealthy sons often head there for fun.”
“The key is, there are too many beauties there, and that’s the main attraction for tourists.”
As he listened to Gu Xiaosang’s description of Flower City, Lu Chuan squeezed into the crowd, making his way forward.
The flashy decorations on both sides of the street were a sight for sore eyes.
Lu Chuan didn’t expect that in just one day, the decorations would beco so lavish.
It seed that the people of Carefree City were really looking forward to this Flower Lantern Festival.
The trio walked forward through the stream of people for a while when suddenly, they saw the crowd ahead part to stand by the sides of the street, leaving the main thoroughfare clear for the procession of carriages.
Arranged by others, Lu Chuan too stood by the side of the street, with Gu Xiaosang and Gu Xiaorou standing to his left and right.
After the street cleared, Lu Chuan looked along the open thoroughfare to the far end.
To his surprise, he saw a beautifully exquisite carriage advancing along the main road.
Four white horses drew a huge platform behind them.
The platform was like a giant blooming lotus, and amidst it stood a figure who instantly caught everyone’s attention.
