… …
If no one fanned the flames, the rumors would collapse on their own.
The dusky sky finally cleared up bit by bit, following a gust of wind that came from the mountain range furthest from the Lichuan Plains.
The turbid air seemed to have been completely washed away.
It was the first clear morning. It was a morning with the first glimmer of dawn and the sky gradually brightening.
When the windows were opened, half of the sky was blue. Although the other half was still shrouded in thick clouds and fog, it would probably be blown away by the summer wind soon.
Everyone's mood improved. The disaster that couldn't see the light of day had finally passed. As long as they continued to work, they would be able to reap a bountiful harvest before autumn arrived.
… …
"Let's go out for a walk. Let's see Xia Liu and try the new tea from Luhua Pavilion." Zhu Minglang walked to the main room of the courtyard.
He didn't barge in. Even though everyone was familiar with each other, Zhu Minglang still maintained his integrity and integrity. He quietly waited outside the door for Li Yunzi's response.
Even if she was recuperating, she still needed to walk around and breathe in the fresh air.
Recently, Zhu Minglang saw people rushing about outside the courtyard from morning to night. He also knew that Zulong City had just undergone a change. Many people had to ask for her permission to do many things.
However, Zhu Minglang could also tell that she wasn't interested in the internal affairs of the clan. She had basically appointed the next leader and gave him full authority to deal with it.
This person might not be someone Li Yunzi completely trusted. At least, he wouldn't obstruct her anymore.
As for the military, it seemed like Commander Cheng was in charge.
Recently, the military had been mobilized on a large scale. They seemed to be waiting for a signal. This signal was that Li Yunzi had survived the change.
If she survived, all the military of the three great city-states and the southeastern city-states would make preparations to establish their own nation.
Since many things were handled by relaying messages, it was fine to stay cooped up in the house or go out to enjoy the scenery.
Li Yunzi liked tea. It couldn't be better for her to go to Luhua Pavilion with its beautiful scenery … …
"Miss, it might be a little inconvenient today." At this moment, Shuang 'er's voice came from inside.
"It's alright. It's good to go out for a walk …" Li Yunzi spoke up. Her voice was very gentle today. It was unknown whether it was because she was in a good mood or because her worries had lessened following her recovery from her injuries. She no longer had her usual coldness.
Zhu Minglang nodded and continued to wait outside the door.
He waited and waited.
Zhu Minglang's calves were sore, but Li Yunzi didn't come out.
She wanted to ask Shuang 'er if her Young Miss had fallen asleep, but she felt that it would be rude, so she could only continue to wait.
Finally, Li Yunzi walked out. Zhu Minglang gave her a fake bow and slowly put down his clasped hands. The moment he looked up, he was stunned!
She bent her slender waist and walked with lotus steps, revealing her white wrists under a thin veil. Her eyes were like autumn water. When she noticed that Zhu Minglang was looking at her absent-mindedly, her eyes seemed to ripple shyly.
"Hmm, hmm." At this time, Miss Shuang 'er reminded him.
Zhu Minglang came back to his senses and smiled politely instead of awkwardly.
Alright, Zhu Minglang couldn't help but admit a fact.
He and Li Yunzi's so-called admirers were the same as the vast majority of vulgar men. They were all attracted by Li Yunzi's beautiful appearance and elegant temperament.
After carefully dressing up, Li Yunzi was beautiful and charming. Just looking at her like this was pleasing to the eye.
"Let's go." Li Yunzi said.
Miss Shuang 'er opened an umbrella to shield her Young Miss from the sun. They walked together leisurely.
Zhu Minglang walked alongside him. Beside him, Fang Niannian, who had gone out to play, also held up an exquisite little umbrella.
However, she only covered herself. She didn't even come close to Zhu Minglang. She pouted her lips slightly and acted like she wasn't his maid.
Zhu Minglang didn't mind. He kept a distance, but unintentionally got closer to her as they walked and talked.
If it was Zhu Minglang, he wouldn't mind tying Shuang 'er and Niannian up and throwing them into the river. In this sunny day, only he and Li Yunzi were needed.
… …
They arrived at the Luhua Building.
The willow trees were soft and beautiful. There were many people walking around today. After all, it was the first sunny day in a long time.
The clouds were still being lifted bit by bit. The sky was completely clear.
After drinking a few mouthfuls of tea, Zhu Minglang planned to tell Li Yunzi about the things she hadn't seen in this land before. At this time, a burst of noise came from outside the building. It seemed like something had happened.
Soon, the noise downstairs turned into shouts.
Even the beautiful people of the Luhua Building came to the wooden window. They wanted to see what was happening outside.
Fang Niannian loved to watch a bustling scene. She quickly walked to the window and looked down. She saw that there were many people on the flat ground downstairs.
Even some farmers who were busy picking vegetables put down their shoulder poles and looked up at the sky in the west.
So many people stopped just to look at the clouds?
Fang Niannian was puzzled. She followed the others and looked at the sky in the west.
However, when she looked, she couldn't help but have goosebumps all over her body.
What was reflected in her eyes wasn't the blue sky or the beautiful clouds. Instead, it was a mountain range that seemed to be far away yet close at the same time.
It was far away because this mountain range was tens of thousands of li away from Ancestral Dragon City. Even in such a clear and dustless sky, it seemed like the mountain range was slightly distorted due to the light refraction. It even went from the blue sky to the light blue sky, and then to the purple sky that was even further away.
It was close at hand because it was simply too huge.
The northernmost mountain of Ancestral Dragon City was magnificent. However, compared to this mountain range that seemed to be reflected in the sky, it was still insignificant.
This mountain range was like the Heavenly Mountain. It occupied the entire sky in the west. It was even more vast and boundless than the land in the west.
As the turbid clouds in the west disappeared, the scene became more and more shocking. People gradually realized that it wasn't a mountain range, but a floating continent that could completely cover the sky in the west.
Screams rang out on the street. Previously, there were still some people in their houses who didn't know what was happening outside.
However, more and more people heard about it. When they went to the street to take a look, they were immediately scared out of their wits.
The sky was so vast. The small piece of blue sky in the distance might be dozens of times larger than the entire plain of Ancestral Dragon City.
However, the sky in the west was now completely covered by a continent. The towering mountain range that people saw at the beginning was only the tip of the iceberg.
It was vast and boundless. It was clearly very far away, but it was a shocking scene that was close at hand.
