Stepping into the Moon Palace, they were greeted by soaring Immortal Cranes and dancing Spiritual Birds, the entire place enveloped in the brilliant light of pearls and jade.
Ethereal music drifted on the air.
"Immortal Cranes!"
Zhu Shuang'er cried out in surprise:
"There are actually living things in here?"
"They're not living things." Zhou Ruxuan shook her head, her eyes flickering slightly:
"They're fragments of scenes from the Ancient Era, made manifest because the Moon Palace's Restrictions were triggered."
"Let's go!"
She strode forward, leading the way into a grand hall.
In the center of the grand hall sat a figure, wearing a crown with twelve tassels of beads and a nine-emblem ceremonial robe. Flanked by a Golden Boy and Jade Girl, the figure exuded such nobility and majesty that no one dared to look directly at them.
On either side of the hall were twelve cushions, with nine people seated cross-legged upon them, listening intently as the figure lectured.
