Emperor Qiankun

Chapter 343 Dream Returns to the City of Lovebirds

That night.

A bright, clear moon hangs high in the vast sky, like a dazzling pearl, radiating a soft and cool glow.

The stars, like tiny diamonds, dotted the night sky, reflecting the bright moon and creating a dreamlike and beautiful picture.

The Su family, a family with a thousand-year history, is located in the back mountain.

One by one, vibrant flowers and grasses sprouted from the soil, growing in competition and clustering together densely, resembling a vast and boundless sea of ​​flowers.

Red like fire, pink like the sunset, white like snow...

Colorful and dazzling, the flowers sway gently in the breeze, releasing a refreshing fragrance.

A graceful figure in white stood quietly atop a mountain in the center, like a fairy statue sculpted from ice and jade.

She gazed silently at the sky, her bright eyes deep and distant, as if pondering the path of cultivation;

She seemed to be reminiscing about the past, making it impossible to fathom her thoughts at this moment.

The moonlight, like water, gently fell upon her.

It is evident that she has a slender and graceful figure, with long, flowing black hair that is casually draped over her shoulders, and a face that is exquisite and flawless!

The moonlight enveloped her, making her appear like a fairy under the moon, aloof from the world, with unparalleled beauty, as if she did not belong to this mortal realm.

At that moment, the woman in white murmured to herself:

"Time flies, a hundred days have passed in a flash, Junior Uncle... are you still well?"

Her voice was soft and melodious, carrying a deep longing and concern.

This woman is none other than Su Yaoyue.

......

In a moment.

Su Yaoyue seemed to be thinking of a beautiful scene, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing a bright smile.

However, a blush immediately appeared on her face, as beautiful and charming as the sunset.

She pursed her lips, two blushes rising on her cheeks, and murmured softly:

"That was my first kiss..."

Suddenly.

She seemed to remember something, her cheeks burning even hotter, her voice tinged with embarrassment and annoyance:

"However, it seems like I was the one who forcibly kissed him..."

Thinking of this, Su Yaoyue felt as if a deer was pounding in her heart, her cheeks burning red, like a ripe peach.

At this moment.

A hoarse voice suddenly rang out:

"Miss, when did you leave the pass? What brings you here?"

"Granny Lan..."

Su Yaoyue turned around and said softly,

"After being secluded for a long time, I felt extremely bored and dull, so I came out to get some fresh air and relax."

Granny Lan approached slowly, gave a soft "hmm," pondered for a moment, and then said:

"If you want to clear your mind... Miss, why don't you go for a stroll at the Mandarin Duck Lantern Festival? Perhaps it will lift your spirits."

"Three years have passed so quickly..." Su Yaoyue paused slightly and murmured to herself.

"Yes, we'll arrive in a few more days."

Granny Lan nodded and continued,

"I've heard that this year's King of Lamps is a nine-turn glazed palace lamp, and the wick is inlaid with a pearl from the Western Sea. It's a rare treasure that's hard to come by."

......

Su Yaoyue hesitated. Her mind was focused on breaking through her cultivation level and cultivating diligently. She didn't really want to go to the lantern festival to join in the fun.

Another reason is that the Mandarin Duck Lantern Festival was organized by the Mandarin Duck Tower.

She didn't have much interaction with Yuanyang Tower, and in fact, this lantern festival was a large-scale "marriage matchmaking venue," so she inevitably felt some resistance.

But somehow, a voice inside her kept whispering to her:

We should go and see; we might find something unexpected...

Thinking of this, Su Yaoyue nodded slightly and agreed:

"Alright, let's go take a look."

Upon seeing this, Granny Lan added:

"Then, Miss, shall I go and arrange for some accompanying cultivators?"

"No need, it's too crowded and noisy. I want to wander around by myself." Su Yaoyue refused without hesitation.

Granny Lan thought about it and agreed. Too many people would indeed be troublesome, and might even cause some trouble.

Moreover, lantern festivals are generally not dangerous, so there is no need to go to such lengths.

Of course, she would definitely go with her, after all, she was Su Yaoyue's protector and bore the heavy responsibility of protecting her.

The two fell into silence, with only the gentle breeze rustling through the sea of ​​flowers.

Granny Lan didn't bother Su Yaoyue any longer, said goodbye, and then slowly withdrew.

Su Yaoyue remained standing alone in the center of the sea of ​​flowers, gazing up at the moon.

Under the moonlight, she was dressed in flowing white robes, her graceful figure breathtaking, like a fairy descending to earth!

......

------

The dream returns to the city, in the middle of the city.

A magnificent and grand complex of courtyards and pavilions stands proudly, which is the renowned 'Mandarin Duck Tower'.

The pavilions are arranged in a staggered pattern, with soaring eaves and carved beams and painted rafters, exuding luxury and elegance.

Behind the Yuanyang Building lies an amazing "artificial sea"!

The sea is vast and boundless, with surging and turbulent waves.

It is said that a top-level cultivator used his great supernatural powers to bring in water from a distant place.

Looking into the distance, one can see the sea meeting the sky, the water and sky blending into one color, stretching as far as the eye can see, as if it were closely connected to an unknown and mysterious land.

On the sea, rows of massive warships stretched out like steel dragons, lined up one after another, creating a magnificent sight.

These giant ships have unique shapes, and their hulls are carved with exquisite runes and patterns in various colors, making them quite beautiful.

Flags fluttered on the ship, rustling in the wind.

The deck of the giant ship was fully equipped with all kinds of facilities, including towering watchtowers, allowing the monks to overlook the sea and observe the surrounding movements.

It has sturdy gun emplacements, concealing powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, ready to deal with any emergencies at any time;

There are also spacious cabins, decorated in a magnificent style, which are excellent places for monks to rest and communicate.

A gentle sea breeze caressed the giant ship, which swayed slightly under the push of the waves, making rhythmic sounds, a constant 'creaking' noise.

at this time.

Groups of two or three male and female cultivators came and went, laughing and joking or strolling side by side, displaying their youthful vitality.

These young monks were dressed in magnificent robes and possessed extraordinary bearing. The men were handsome and dashing, and the women were beautiful and charming, as if they had stepped out of a painting.

They enjoyed this wonderful time by the "artificial sea," adding a touch of splendor to the Mandarin Duck Lantern Festival!
