Song of Time - Dusk Awakening Verse - Chapter 46

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

Hsuan was still thinking about leaving the trouble for the emperor. Still, when he saw the emperor, his mood was slightly subtle.

With what Ning had said just now as a foreshadow, he certainly knew why the emperor came, and he didn’t want to waste his breath on the same thing. He reached out his hand and pointed at the side seat, as if he knew something, but smiled as if nothing had happened. “There’s so much noise outside. You still have time to come.”

“You heard about it?” The emperor was not surprised to see that he had already known it. After all, the rumor was almost spread in the streets. It was natural for someone to tell the Priest. He stepped forward and sat down on the chair. He touched his robe and sighed, pretending to be helpless. “To be honest, I don’t know how the fat bird found Miyo. You don’t have to ask me about it. You can do whatever you want. I have no objection. “

The emperor was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh. They hadn’t seen each other for so many years, and they were afraid of trouble the most. As for human language, they didn’t care at all…However, as an emperor, he couldn’t ignore the folk custom, not to mention that this matter was by no means as simple as it seemed…He sighed in his heart. Since he had understood what Priest was thinking, he didn’t say anything more. He echoed, “You have been traveling all year round, so it’s inevitable that you can’t care about these. It’s all my fault. I haven’t paid much attention to this matter. If I could find her earlier, I wouldn’t have caused so much discussion. “

He apologized, but there was still a smile on his face as if he was not talking about himself. Of course, Hsuan knew that he was just lying. Eight years ago, when he first took Miyo to the study, Shane didn’t want to do anything and went to the study all day long. Even if he didn’t tell him, as a father, he knew what had happened?

Even so, he didn’t want to make it clear to the emperor. He shook his head and scolded, “You’re not a good man. You need to be careful in the future…”He glanced at the emperor and didn’t want to say anything more. When he was about to see the guest out, he heard the man whispering, “Your Majesty…Is there any progress? “

Hearing this, Hsuan’s face became serious. He pursed his lips and wondered how to answer. The abnormal phenomenon that had happened during the CeremonyCeremony had never appeared in Wong’s history, which shocked Priest, who had practiced for a thousand years. In the past few years, he had been searching for clues, but there was no result. He often thought of the obscure prophecy and the powerful force that was so deep that it could shake his soul. He always felt a little powerless.

The emperor narrowed his eyes and stared at the Priest. There was no smile on his face. At that time, because of the distance and the poor eyesight, he saw something vague. He only knew that the scene was strange, but he heard the poem with a strange melody very clearly. The accident happened all of a sudden. Although he didn’t know why it happened, he still made a prompt decision. After the CeremonyCeremony, he isolated Miyo from others, in case any accident would cause panic. At that time, his son was strongly dissatisfied with his action and tried to fight against him in various ways. Still, he did not agree, which made the relationship between the two people stiff from then on.

However, except Shane, all the other princes present at the CeremonyCeremony were knocked out because of the great power. When the royal family waiting outside the tower saw it, they were shocked and couldn’t help but doubt it. They kept questioning and caused a sensation.

Although the disturbance was easily explained by Priest as a burst of divine power, no one dared to question it. However, after she returned to the palace, she would often say something that she couldn’t control for unknown reasons. Although the emperor had ordered people to isolate her, these abnormalities were still captured by people with ulterior motives and spread throughout the royal family. Later, when Miyo suddenly disappeared, Prince Yu, together with the other emperors, forced him to issue a wanted warrant, which temporarily ended.

Over the years, although he knew that his daughter was still alive, he did not take her back to the palace. On the one hand, Priest must have some plans. On the other hand, there were too many people in the palace. It was really not as peaceful as in the study, far away from worries. When he asked about it, he felt a little ashamed, but the most important thing right now was to find out the truth of the prophecy. As the emperor, this mysterious divine texture was like a thorn in the back, making him worried.

No one spoke in the reception room for a while. The Priest sat quietly for a long time and thought about it. Since the investigation had no result, it was better not to avoid more involvement with the other party. He looked up and saw the emperor looking at him with deep anxiety in his eyes. Then he smiled and said, “Don’t ask too much. I will figure out a way to deal with it. Nothing can go wrong.”

The emperor was a little unwilling to see him refuse to answer, but he couldn’t ask anymore. He could only say a few more dry greetings and find an excuse to leave.

Hsuan leaned back in the chair and watched the emperor disappear from the door. He felt a little annoyed, so he took out the cigarette. He didn’t smoke but habitually held it in his mouth. The mention of the old incident brought up countless thoughts in his mind. From the CeremonyCeremony to the terrifying abnormal phenomenon, to the increasingly fierce catastrophe of the divine power this year, all these signs did not show any good[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

When he was thinking about something, a golden light flashed at the door, which made him a little angry. One after another, there were so many things…He cursed in his heart and took off the cigarette with a straight face. Leaning against the back of the chair, he squinted forward and saw jade standing in front of the door in a purple robe, wrapped in golden lightning.

As soon as Prince entered the room, he saw the Priest sitting in the main seat and looking at him expressionlessly. He quickly bowed deeply in fear and trepidation. “Teacher, I’m sorry to disturb you. Please forgive me…”

Seeing the culprit of this farce, Hsuan snorted in his heart, “Damn you! You are really a troublemaker. If you hadn’t intervened, how could you make such a scene!” In fact, he didn’t want to talk to him anymore, but he had to pretend to be happy. He had to put on a smile again and answered vaguely with a cigarette pipe in his mouth, “It’s you. Why…Do you have time to come here? “

“Teacher…”

“Well, you don’t have to call me like that… I just give you some advice. I’m not your teacher… “

Hearing this, Prince Yu’s heart skipped a beat. Seeing that he closed his eyes and looked stiff, he knew that he was most likely unhappy because he had heard of what happened to Miyo. He immediately stepped forward and bowed to apologize. “I was so reckless that I didn’t think too much, causing rumors to spread and disturbing the teacher. I’m really guilty, guilty…”

Reckless? As a member of the royal family, how can you not know the consequences? The Priest was even more unhappy when he saw that he was showing off his good deeds. He did it and said, as long as you were reasonable, it didn’t matter. Why did you pretend? Now he didn’t even have the intention to invite someone to sit down. He waved his hand, pretending not to care, and said perfunctorily, “You didn’t do anything wrong. Since the fat bird has caused trouble, he has to follow the rules. You can do whatever you want to do…”

After saying a few words, he tried to find an excuse to see the guest out. However, Prince Yu stepped forward and said unwillingly, “Sir, You have always been fair and scrupulous, and naturally you are not afraid of gossip. However, I’m afraid that someone deliberately favors you and discredit you… “

Of course, Hsuan knew who he was talking about, and he didn’t want to point it out. He just patiently repeated, “You have to follow the rules. You are all people of this status. How can you not understand?”

“Of course I know, but there are people who don’t like to follow the rules. Don’t you know what he has done over the years…”Speaking of the new politics that the emperor had implemented, Prince Yu couldn’t help but get angry. From the constant introduction of all kinds of strange and ingenious things to the full opening of the magic light flower market and the hateful order of freedom of speech, he repeatedly complained, saying that the emperor was fatuous. The latter disregarded the general principles and acted arbitrarily, causing public complaints.

The Priest had listened to them for a while, but the more he listened, the more impatient he became. He put the pipe into the bag, stood up, and drank in a low voice, “All right, all right. What are you talking about? I don’t care about your business…” He didn’t even look at Prince Yu. He waved his sleeve and left. Then he heard a loud shout in a fit of pique, “Since you don’t want to meddle in this matter, please don’t interfere…”

Hearing this, Hsuan was unhappy. “I didn’t mean to care. What did you mean? Do you mean there must be something wrong with my behavior? ” He narrowed his eyes and raised his chin. Slowly, he turned around and stared at the Jade King expressionlessly. “Are you threatening me?”

Prince Yu knew he had made a slip of the tongue, but he frowned and didn’t say anything. He just lowered his head and gasped for breath, blowing his beard trembling with anger.

The Priest waited for a few seconds, but he finally lost his patience. He turned around and strode to the door. A white light flashed around him, and in the blink of an eye, he returned to the quiet bamboo forest at the top of the tower. At this moment, he was in a bad mood. As he stood still, he heard a cheerful voice from Gian. “Sir! You’re finally back. I’m so bored waiting for you. When shall we start to practice? “

“I’m annoyed to death downstairs, but this guy is very happy…”Looking numbly at the young man running over in front of him and the joy of the sun shining, Hsuan felt very uncomfortable.

Upon seeing his strange expression, Gian asked in confusion, “Sir, what happened?”

The Priest didn’t answer. He just stared at the young man, whose weird eyes with light thorns almost made his hair stand on end. But he suddenly showed a relaxed smile and said, “Nothing.” As if the cold atmosphere just now was just an illusion.

Gian was stunned and stood there, feeling strange. With a faint smile, Priest grabbed his arm and pulled him towards the tower for cultivation. “Let’s continue to practice and see if you have made any progress.”

The young man was inexplicably dragged to the stage by the Priest. He scratched his head and wanted to ask more, but the Priest’s face seemed to be unhappy. He was frightened and quickly sat on the stage. He did not dare to say more, fearing that he would irritate the master again.

Hsuan smiled and waited for him to sit down. Without saying anything, he raised his hand, and a ball of white light enveloped him. Gian was also familiar with this process. He closed his eyes and practiced it step by step. However, today, the white light seemed extremely dense and endless, making his spirit that wasn’t yet strong enough to withstand it. The black light within his body also appeared from time to time, causing his entire body to be sour and numb, and he couldn’t stop complaining.

Although the Priest knew his sufferings, he controlled the white light’s intensity as if he was playing a trick. He took a break from time to time, and before Gian could react, he swept up again. As a result, he could only grit his teeth with a bitter smile. By dusk, the warriors in Gian were already exhausted, sweating profusely. Lying on the stage, they didn’t even have the strength to breathe. Their minds were also in a mess, and they had no time to think about what had happened.

At this moment, Hsuan finally let out a sigh of relief. He leaned against the thin bamboo with a cigarette, looking at the young man’s embarrassing appearance, and then looked up at the sky. He felt that it was almost the time, so he stuffed the pipe in his hand, clapped his hands, and said, “Okay, let’s stop here today…”

He stroked his sleeve, thinking about what to eat. After waiting for a long time, there was no response. He looked down and found that the boy had fallen asleep on Shitai. The Priest couldn’t help laughing when he saw him drooling. He shook his head and didn’t care about him. He walked slowly to the small bamboo Pavilion in front of the house.

The sun had not yet set, but it was still shining with dim light. The sky was full of red clouds, and against the long thin leaves of the purple bamboo, it was like a flame that was spurting out. In his eyes, the fire was still leaning against the deck chair. He took out the china cup from the cloth bag, which seemed to be inexhaustible. With a white light flashing, the cup was filled with wine again.

He stared at it in silence and took a sip. The cold wine went straight into his throat, seeping into his chest and brewing several times. Finally, he let out a sigh. He just drank alone and thought of the annoying things today. His eyes were empty, and he looked into the distance blankly. He didn’t realize it until the night fell, and the full moon rose to the bamboo’s top.

It was already this late, but he didn’t know if that boy had woken up or not…The Priest sighed and cleared his mind. When he stood up and was about to walk out, he heard a chuckle in the bamboo forest outside the pavilion. “Hey, boss, I…!”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
