Chapter 12 Meeting the Heavenly King (II)

 

Qianhua ran all the way out till the exit of the main palace before she turned around to see if Moon Goddess was chasing her. There wasn’t any one behind. Qianhua then slowed down and laughed out loud. 

Right after Qianhua stopped, HanYing jumped out of Qianhua’s arms impatiently and transfigured back to the human form. She tidied her dress and fixed her hairstyle quickly, then exclaimed, "What should we do now? How we supposed to find out where the Heavenly King is? Sis, you must help me!"

Qianhua stroked her forehead and replied, "It’s my first time visiting the heavenly, just like you. I’m not familiar with the constructions here at all. So how do you expect me to find your Mr. dreamy?”

These two women felt a little blue and started to ramble about aimlessly. They did not know that the king they were looking for was right around the corner. 

"This forest feels full of depression. I thought it was supposed to be spring all year round in Heavenly. How come it has such a desolated place?" HanYing gazed around curiously and noticed something odd when they passed by a small forest.
   
Qianhua stopped and glanced up at the withered trees and dead leaves around them. There were no golden flowers and crystal weed like elsewhere. The whole place was in the color of late autumn. There was an isolated but magnificent fort behind the forest, formulating a sense of loneliness and sorrow. The closer Qianhua walked towards the palace, the stronger unexpected pain she felt in her heart. As like her heart was stabbed by a dozen needles. Qianhua slightly frowned; and her teeth were chattering.
   
"Qianhua, are you sick?"

"No… I don’t think so."

"You look rather pale."

"Maybe it’s the wind. Don't you think it's cold here?"

"No, but I think that guy looks strange." HanYing raised her hand and pointed to the abandoned Lotus Pool in front of the building. A man in frosty robe was standing by the pool next to a human-height statue, which was covered with white gauze. His tall and straight back looked graceful but inexplicable dispirited.
   
"Who is that?" Qianhua asked.

"I can't see his face clearly. But that perfect figure is somehow attractive."

Qianhua rolled her eyes at the drooling woman beside her, and tried to drag her away from that place, "Don't forget that you are here for the king. How could you change your mind the moment you saw another smart man? Be careful to get struck by lightening as your punishment!"

"Sis, you are so over worried!" HanYing had never considered being of two minds as a mistake. Thus she responded loudly and happened to be heard by the man.

"Who is there?" The man spoke.

His voice was nice and clear. If heard in the Mortal realm, it would be called the sound of heaven, which was exactly right.

Qianhua and HanYing nudged each other for help. Neither of them wanted to take the lead in answering the stranger. 

Before they realized, the man in white had approached. He slowly paced over in a light breeze mixed with the fragrance of flowers. He smelled refreshing and elegant.
   
HanYing suddenly got extremely excited and inhaled some cool air.

The man in front of them looked gentle; and his sharp-featured face seemed bright and delicate. His skin was flawless like well-polished jade. His thin lips had beautiful arc lines. When he looked at the two women, there seemed to be a clear spring from the highest mountain flowing inside his watery eyes. The impression of this man was just breathtaking.

Qianhua frowned again. Her body trembled a little. She was wondering if she had seen him before.

HanYing almost shouted out in a cracking voice, "the Heavenly King?!"

Qianhua was surprised. She double-checked, "Heavenly King MoYunye?"

"Exactly." MoYunye answered politely without a slice of condescension. 

Qianhua was amazed and glanced at the overjoyed woman by her side. She couldn’t believe that they met the Heavenly King in such a hopeless place.
