Chapter 64 With Blood as a Medium I (2/2)
But if it wasn't what he desired, how could she force him.
”Miss, you seem to be different than usual today.” Chishao walked in carrying a bowl of water, ”Miss woke up unusually early today. Abbot Lingyang said, he wanted to meet miss before his rites.”
Listening to Chishao's words, Qingyan washed her face, before being brought away by the young
e, as if they were old friends.
”Old madam, today's buddhist sermon, I will only lecture to Miss Su alone.” Lingyang faced Su Jiashi and said respectfully.
Old madam listened to Lingyang's words and earnestly nodded, ”Alright, then I'll leave it to you for today.” Su Jiashi said and patted her hand. Afterwards, she left with Yunxiang and the others.
”Abbot, I've decided to purse my desires.” Qingyan looked to him and slowly said, ”and I won't regret it.”
Lingyang looked to her and nodded, as if he wasn't surprised by her decision. ”Since that's the case, then you can already start working on that blood jade in your hands.” Lingyang said and walked to the side, pressing an unknown mechanism. Before them, a long path appeared.
”Shizhu, at the end of this path is a device. As for how it's used, I'm sure you will know.” Lingyang looked to Qingyan still with calm look.
”Thank you for the guidance.” Qingyan lifted the corners of her dress and step by step headed towards the secret entrance. Inside the hidden chamber, on either sides, seems to be filled with the former Qilian Qingyan's voice and smiling face.
The further she went, the more she felt the mysterious pain in her chest spreading, as if she was still Qilian Qingyan. And she could no longer tell whether she was Qilian Qingyan or Su Qingyan anymore.
When she reached the end of the path, she saw a painting. The woman in the painting was clad in white sitting on the back of a white tiger. And in her hand was a jade flute, put to her lips. It look as if she was about to perform a moving melody.
That woman was precisely Nanchen's previous Empress--Qilian Qingyan.
