Chapter 651: Chapter 377 Intrusion_1
Feng Qing’an followed the voice and immediately saw a gently elegant and tender Feather woman with a graceful neck and charming pose, just like a Banished Celestial Maiden stepping out of a painting.
“Who are you?”
Despite her delicate appearance, indicating that a slight push could topple her, Feng Qing’an could distinctly sense an energy from her that was unyieldingly potent and didn’t match her outer appearance.
This was a Feather person who had survived two heavenly tribulations. Her power was in no way inferior to any Feather person present and in many aspects, even surpassed them.
“I am Yun Chenglu, a dear friend of Yao Sheng’s.”
“Yao Sheng?”
Feng Qing’an looked puzzled, not recognizing the completely unfamiliar name or having any recollection of it.
“Isn’t she the Merfolk standing beside you whom you just invited into Cave Sky?”
Upon seeing Feng Qing’an’s reaction, Yun Chenglu couldn’t help but show a complex expression. Did it mean he didn’t even know her friend’s name? What was going on?
“Ah, you are talking about her. So, her name is Yao Sheng, just found out today. Forgot to ask earlier.”
Feng Qing’an stroked his chin, not even a little embarrassed.
On the contrary, he thought that the Merfolk Queen was somewhat impolite for not taking the initiative to tell him her name.
“It seems you didn’t bother much about her.”
Yun Chenglu exhaled softly, feeling the situation more difficult than she had imagined.
Her friend was an Earth Immortal, yet treated so lightly despite being a follower. He didn’t even bother to ask her name.
“What are you talking about? Isn’t it enough to keep her close? My heart is quite small; it can’t accommodate too many people.”
Feng Qing’an laughed.
“Moreover, it was her advice that led me to come here and witness the grandeur of your Qiong Yu race!”
“So it really was her.”
Yun Chenglu’s expression remained the same, but Feng Qing’an detected a change in her aura. As he expected, their relationship was probably strained now. If they weren’t arch-enemies, they must be at least adversaries.
But given how things had turned out, he could not be blamed. It was Yao Sheng, the Merfolk Queen’s decision to drag a friend into all this.
“Since your elderly lord has inspected my Cave Sky, why don’t you act on his behalf and guide me through your Qiong Yu’s Heavenly City!”
“Certainly!”
The Feather woman dutifully replied, bending slightly in acknowledgement. The Feathers around, witnessing this situation, wanted to say something but dared not to intervene after seeing Feng Qing’an easily open the Cave Sky.
A Heavenly Immortal!
For their race, such an entity could only be admired from afar. True, their starting point was much higher than that of the Human Race.
However, their high starting point was mainly due to their bloodline inherited from the ancient times, which over generations, gradually weakened.
Prospered due to bloodline yet declined for the same reason. Today, their bloodline had turned into an invisible yoke, hindering their progress towards higher realms and longevity.
The Dong Xuan stage was the highest they could reach currently. As for the realm of Earth Immortal above a Human Immortal, even their old king, despite his unparalleled talent, still couldn’t break this shackle.
“No need to be so formal, just be yourself. I’m not some big bad guy. Today, I’m just here to satisfy my curiosity, broaden my vision and expand my horizons.”
Seeing the woman acting so respectfully, Feng Qing’an casually waved his hand without much care.
“Yes.”
The delicate Feather woman, mesmerizing and gentle, turned and walked gracefully in front of Feng Qing’an, leading him into the primarily white-colored Cloud City.
This was a stunningly beautiful and picturesque city. Towering palace towers like misty mountains, glowing dazzlingly under the sunlight like the residence of ancient heavenly gods, exuded an air of purity and sanctity.
But upon a closer look, Feng Qing’an realized that only the actual white grand palace at the center was made from white jade. The surrounding palaces gradually changed from milky white to a grayish shade, but all carried the texture of floating clouds, as if suspended in mid-air.
Between the palaces of the Cloud City, one after another exquisitely beautiful Qiong Yutians spread their wings and soared, their crowns fluttering, their long robes flying, elegant in manner, emitting a refined and unworldly aura, seeming like a serene paradise far from the madding crowd.
“Honored guest, this is our Qiong Yu’s Heavenly City, constructed by our forebears.”
Although Yun Chenglu’s tone was modest, Feng Qing’an could hear a hint of suppressed pride from her words.
“What’s so great about this?”
Squatting on Feng Qing’an’s shoulder, observing the surroundings, the black cat began to speak, its voice filled with contempt and disdain.
“Compared to the Mechanism City of Xuan Qin’s Mo family, your city falls far behind. If we were to collide head-on, within half an hour, your feeble city would be blasted into fragments.”
“Xuan Qin?!”
Upon hearing the black cat’s words, the prideful and somewhat arrogant Feather maiden was taken aback.
“Our ancestors built this city so that our descendants could live away from the strife of the world, flourish in peace in one corner and not wage wars or conquer the universe like the Mechanism City of Xuan Qin.”
