Chapter 404: The Builder of the Underwater Palace



Feng Yi's heart felt swollen, as if it was soaked in warm water.

He suppressed the worry in his heart, hugged Qu Li tightly in his arms, and finally gave her a passionate kiss on the forehead.

The two of them came to the ancient mural, and Qu Li looked up with a calm mind.

Feng Yi's eyes were fixed on her face. If her mood became wrong, he could wake her up immediately.

Like before, this mural is just an ordinary painting, there is nothing wrong with it.

About a minute later, some people suddenly appeared in the painting.

She saw them carrying stones and how they built the underwater palace.

There was a man wearing a black veil who was commanding everyone. Although his face could not be seen clearly, the arrogant aura he exuded made Qu Li clench his hands.

Feng Yi was very nervous. He noticed that Qu Li frowned and became very excited. He called her name hurriedly.

However, this situation only lasted for a short while before Qu Li returned to normal.

Feng Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

Qu Li saw that the underwater palace seemed to be equipped with some dark technology, and this kind of technology should not appear in this era at all.

So, the person who built this underwater palace was also a time traveler?!

If this person is really a time traveler, then what is his intention in building this underwater palace?

Is he still in this time and space?

Countless questions popped up in Qu Li's mind at once, but none of them had an answer.

It took her three hours to finish looking at the entire painting.

Eyes are dry and filled with saline solution.

Feng Yi helped her wipe away her tears and asked her gently if she felt unwell.

"I'm fine." She held Feng Yi's hand and smiled gently, "Don't worry."

"Any findings?"

“There are indeed discoveries.”

"Sit down first and rest for a while."

Regardless of whether she saw anything in the mural, she had been standing there for an hour and a half, and her mental energy was extremely exhausted.

Qu Li nodded.

Just as I was about to walk over, my legs suddenly hung in the air.

She subconsciously put her arms around Feng Yi's neck and looked at him with bright eyes: "Why do you want to hug me?"

The voice was indescribably delicate, and it felt like a gentle spring breeze was blowing across Feng Yi's heart.

"Hug me if you want!"

She raised the corners of her mouth and looked at his smooth jawline, her eyes filled with sweet pink bubbles of happiness.

Noticing her affectionate gaze, Feng Yi smiled deeply, "If Li'er likes it, I'll hold you forever!"

Qu Li imagined several scenes: him attending the morning court, reviewing memorials in the imperial study, and attending a palace banquet...

What should have been a very solemn and dignified picture became very humorous and funny because of the addition of such a large pendant like her.

"What are you laughing at?"

"without."

Feng Yi raised his eyebrows and put her down.

"I'll drink some water first."

"good."

"Would you like to drink some too?"

"good."

Although Qu Li already knew the secret of this underwater palace through the ancient murals, she had just consumed too much mental energy, and drinking some spiritual spring water could replenish her physical strength.

"Does Ayi know about the Tianlong Continent?"

Hearing Qu Li ask this suddenly, Feng Yi couldn't help but guess her intention.

"The Tianlong Continent is a vast landmass. The three largest kingdoms are Daqian, Southern Qi, and Xiling. As for the remaining smaller nations, although there are frequent frictions and wars, they do not affect the tranquility and peace of the Tianlong Continent."

Qu Li had also learned about what Feng Yi said through geographical records before.

"Is there any mysterious realm above the Tianlong Continent?"

She thought, if there had been a very powerful time traveler in this time and space, who was powerful enough to build a huge underwater palace and could use secret divination and black technology to make people stay in this underwater palace without eating or drinking and with time standing still, this person would be fully capable of disrupting the stability of the Tianlong Continent.

Where is this person now?

"Among the Three Kingdoms, Xiling was the most proficient in witchcraft. It's said that there's a mysterious Tianxian Mountain in Xiling. Some people claim to have seen celestial beings on Tianxian Mountain."

Qu Li supported his chin with one hand, his brain working at high speed, thinking about how likely it was that the immortal on Tianxian Mountain was a time traveler.

Feng Yi took her hand and asked, "Could it be that this underwater palace was built by an immortal?"

"I can't really say right now, let's leave here first."

"So you found a way to leave the underwater palace?"

Feng Yi actually didn't want to ask, for fear of embarrassing her.

"There are two ways to leave here."

"Tell me about it."

"That place, do you see it?"

"Hmm?" Feng Yi followed the direction of her finger and looked at a circle not far away.

A very ordinary circle, nothing strange about it.

"If many people mistakenly enter the underwater palace, one person can stay and the rest can leave. Those who leave will no longer remain immortal and will also forget everything in the underwater palace."

It was the first time that Feng Yi heard of such a magical thing.

"What if only one person walks in here by mistake?"

"We need to find another way to leave, or we'll be trapped here forever."

Feng Yi frowned and nodded: "No wonder your father has been trapped here for more than ten years."

"Perhaps so far, I am the only one who can see the mystery in this ancient mural."

His cheek was gently pinched, and Qu Li glared at him, "Don't you agree with what I said?"

"Not really!" He sat beside her, his expression extremely serious. "I just felt that you would definitely let your father and I leave this underwater palace first."

Qu Li's eyes narrowed.

She had indeed thought so since she had glimpsed the mystery hidden in this ancient mural.

Let Feng Yi and Changsun Wuque leave the underwater palace first, and then she will leave by another method.

"I guessed it right, didn't I?" Although Feng Yi's voice was still very soft, his tone was much heavier than before.

"Don't be angry." She cupped his cheeks. "I was just thinking."

Feng Yi's expression darkened completely, "I won't agree."

They were finally able to be together, and there was absolutely no way he would give up on her and separate from her!

"Ayi." Qu Li was a little helpless. "Stop it! I stayed because I'm sure that the only one who can solve the mystery of the underwater palace is me!"

"You're very smart, and I believe you have the ability. But Li'er, how can I let you stay here alone?"

If she failed to solve the mystery and leave here, he would have completely lost the woman he loved most in his life.

Qu Li's throat felt like it was blocked by a ball of wet cotton wool, and she sighed softly.

"Ayi, this time, will you listen to me?"

"No!" He refused without thinking, with anger surging in his eyes.
