28 The Mysterious Altar

Living in harmony and having friendly exchanges? This is really ironic. Everyone knows that the three countries seem to be in peace on the surface, but secretly they are preparing for war, and the world will be in chaos soon.

‘‘Prince Ling is really thoughtful. Since you have come to Fengtian Kingdom, you can stay in the palace for a few more days so that I can fulfill my friendship as a landlord.’’

''Then Ling Feng would like to thank Emperor Feng.''

Ling Feng stayed at the Fengtian Palace for five days, playing chess and drinking tea all day long, feeling very at ease.

Liu Yunche couldn't hold it any longer and came to ask Feng Aotian to resign, "Brother Liu, do you really want to leave?"

''Yes, Wei Chen wants to go to Liuyun Country.''

''Why does this good-looking person want to go to Liuyun Country?''

''Wei Chen thought that Prince Ling came to our Fengtian Kingdom to express his friendship. Our Fengtian Kingdom is a huge country, how can we lose our grace? Isn't it good for Wei Chen to go to Liuyun Kingdom as a return visit to deepen the good relations between the two countries?

?''

‘‘Brother Liu is still thoughtful, I’m sure.’’

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Liu Yunche smiled in his heart. It was great. He could finally go to Yunxi. Half a month had passed. Yunxi and the others should have arrived at Liuyun Kingdom.

Liu Yunche left in a hurry. He couldn't wait any longer. When he returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Liu Yunche began to pack his luggage.

''Che'er, where are you going?'' The eldest lady said nothing when her son came back from the palace. In the past, no matter how busy he was, he would always talk to her mother when he came back. Since he came back a few days ago,

I haven't said a word to her since.

''Mom, I'm going to Liuyun Country and I'll accompany you when I come back.''

''Going to Liuyun Country? Why did Che'er go to Liuyun Country?''

‘‘Prince Ling of Liuyun Kingdom came here to pay a special visit. I am just going to pay a return visit. The Emperor has given permission.’’

Liu Yunche is completely perfunctory with her now. He has only one real purpose, which is to find Yunxi, but he cannot let his mother know about this.

''Oh, since it is the emperor's wish, Che'er can go.''

‘‘Thank you, mother, I have something to ask my mother, can you tell me?’’

''If you have anything to do with Che'er, just ask me. Mom will tell you everything she knows.''

''About Yunxi.''

''Yunxi, why did you mention that bitch? When did Che'er change her name?'' The eldest lady was extremely disgusted with Yunxi.

Liu Yunche also knew that the eldest lady did not want to mention Yunxi, so he was no longer happy and continued to ask, "'Nothing, since you don't want to mention her, then don't talk about it, I should go."

‘‘Che’er is in such a hurry to leave, why don’t you just stay with your mother for a moment longer? Even if you don’t want to accompany me, won’t Che’er go see your father when you come back?’’

''I will visit my father after my son comes back.'' No matter what the eldest lady said, Liu Yunche's heart was no longer in Fengtian Kingdom, but had already flown to Yunxi in Liuyun Kingdom.

Liu Yunche left the Prime Minister's Mansion, released the flamingo, and drove the flamingo in the direction of Liuyun Kingdom. In addition, in Fengluo City, Lord Sima's poison had been cured, and Sima Rui also continued to head towards Liuyun Kingdom.

Go to the country of clouds.

Yun Xi had already arrived in Liuyun Country and stopped in a small town. For the convenience of her, she stayed in a family's house. The place was quite large. After paying the rent, a few people could live there safely.

''Miss Liu, there will be a sacrificial meeting in our town tonight, will you go?'' Zhang Min asked Liu Yunxi.

Zhang Min is the only daughter of the host couple. She is the only daughter between the two of them, and she is very precious. Yunxi is not disgusted with this cute girl. He thinks she is sincere and straightforward. Yunxi likes such people.

''Sacrificial assembly? Can you tell me what a sacrificial assembly is?''

''The sacrificial meeting is where the townspeople pray to God for blessings and worship gods.''

''Oh, I'll go with you tonight and I'll bring the others with me.''

‘‘Okay, okay, I finally have someone to accompany me. It’s so crowded. But this year’s ceremony is a little different.’’

''What's the difference?'' Yun Xi was also curious about what difference worshiping gods could make.

''There used to be female priests, but I don't know why the female priests suddenly died suddenly after last year's sacrifice. Several died this year, and all the female priests died.''

‘‘Oh? There is such a thing, I’m going to see it tonight.’’

''That's good, as long as you are with me, I won't be afraid anymore.''

''It turns out you pulled me in because you were afraid.''

''Of course not. I'm a timid person. I'm afraid of the dark. Although there were plenty of fires at the ceremony and it wasn't dark, the priestess died suddenly, so I'm a little scared. If someone is with me, I won't be afraid anymore.

,Besides, I really want to go with you.''

''Whatever you say, you are just naughty.''

‘‘Miss Liu should be younger than me, why do you talk like an older person?’’

Yunxi smiled secretly, of course I am older than you. I have lived for twenty-two years in my previous life. Adding in Liu Yunxi's real age, I am thirty-five years old, more than enough to be her mother.

''I'm used to it.'' Yunxi replied with a smile.

‘‘Since you are younger than me, how about we become sworn brothers? I am older and I want to be the older sister.’’

She wants to be a sister? I have no relatives, so it would be nice to have a sister, so I might as well satisfy her request.

''Okay, I will sworn sworn vows with you, and you will be my sister from now on.''

''Great, can I just call you Sister Yunxi?''

It’s just a title, Yun Xi doesn’t care, ‘‘It’s up to you.’’

In the evening, Yunxi and his party went to attend the sacrificial meeting with Zhang Min. The fire was soaring into the sky, and a bonfire had been lit in front of the altar. It was really not dark at all.

The sacrificial meeting began, and everyone knelt down and shouted, "May the gods bless our town of Nuoqi and enjoy peace from generation to generation."

The people of Nuoqi Town really don't have high demands. They don't ask the gods to give them more blessings, but only seek peace. However, this sounds really weird. It sounds like Nuoqi Town was not peaceful before. It's no wonder.

, so many priestesses died inexplicably, which is indeed a bit unfair.

''The chosen human being, you are finally here.''

Yunxi suddenly heard the sound and couldn't help but was startled. Who spoke again? Yunxi asked the shadow beside him in a very soft voice, "Ying, did you hear any strange sounds?"

''No, I didn't hear anything.'' Ying replied stiffly to Yun Xi.

This is when Yun Xi realized that something was wrong with everyone around him, like a walking zombie with no one under his control, "Human, they can't hear me, only you can hear me."

Yunxi listened carefully to the sound. The sound seemed to come from the altar. Could everything that happened be related to the altar? Yunxi couldn't figure out what secrets the altar held, so he could only speculate secretly.

Originally, I might not have time to update it today, and indeed I don’t have much time, but I wrote it anyway, and if you like it, I’ll keep it in your memory and save it.
