“To find him, you’ll put your life at great risk. Do you really want to find him?”
“I must!” Gu Xijiu stated without a trace of doubt.
That voice went into silence once again. Just when Gu Xijiu thought that it would not sound anymore, the voice uttered once more. “Then you must first find the box in his embrace.”
Gu Xijiu was taken by surprise. Find that box?
“Where is that box?” she asked.
“The heavens bestow the fate of marriage upon the land for lifelong love. When the love doth break, the sentiments and box are buried...” The voice began to chant a mantra-like speech.
Gu Xijiu could not comprehend what the voice was saying. She tried to ask about the meaning behind those words, but the voice had already disappeared.
Gu Xijiu chanted the mantra several times. Although she did not understand what it meant, she could memorize it fully.
“Hey, what should I do after I find the box?” she shouted at the void.
...
“Master! Master! Wake up! Wake up!” The Firmament Stone suddenly shouted in her head.
Gu Xijiu woke up from her dream. She opened her eyes and found out that her back was still leaning against the tree; she had a dream.
It was the first time she has had a dream like that over the past few days. She recollected it with a lingering sense of longing. It seems that the person that she was looking for does not only wear purple. In her dream, he was wearing a snowy-white garment.
She recalled the box that the person had put in his embrace. It was red and embedded with an emerald green gem. What secret did that box contain?
Seeing that she has entered a trance-like state, the Firmament Stone blurted out, “Master, what happened? You kept on talking in your dream just now...”
It was the first time it had heard her talk in her dreams in a while! It was curious about what its master had dreamt.
“Shut up!” Gu Xijiu was exasperated by its nagging and sealed its voice to gain some peace of mind.
Just when she was about to sink into contemplation again, she sensed turmoil from below. Someone shouted, “The Eldest Prince has arrived!”
Gu Xijiu straightened her body. What a coincidence! She was just thinking about looking for the Eldest Prince just now, and here he is in his full presence!
The Eldest Prince’s entourage was extremely large and differed from Yun Yanli’s habit of being alone. His presence was accompanied by a sheer number of guards of honor!
The fairies playing music, while behind them were an orderly group of fairy warriors. In the middle of the pack was a magnificent shining gold chariot driven by eight pegasuses that were accompanied by a large group of guards of honor behind them. The whole entourage traveled in utmost splendor and radiance.
The commoners in the market stepped to the side of the street and kneeled down, not even daring to breathe.
Gu Xijiu sat idly on the trunk of the tree and contemplated whether she would follow the prince’s chariot to catch a glimpse of his appearance. She did not expect that a cold voice would sound from within the chariot when it went past the tree she was sleeping under. “Stop!”
The chariot thereby stopped in its tracks. A fair-skinned hand emerged from the window of the chariot and pointed at the tree Gu Xijiu was sleeping under. “Who is over there?”
Gu Xijiu was caught by surprise. Did he see through her Invisibility Spell?
That prince was really something! With his finger pointed at the tree, all of his servants naturally turned their gaze toward the tree where Gu Xijiu was at.
