The current Spirit Hall is certainly not as strong as the Spirit Hall during Qian Daoliu's time, but overall it has become stronger.
Di Hong estimated that the Spirit Hall changed its nature around this time, or rather, it had already changed its nature long ago, and Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong were just facilitators.
The Spirit Hall during Bibi Dong's era was the most powerful period since its establishment, but it was also the period that led to its destruction.
Chapter 114 Hundred Flowers Mountain
Chapter 114 Hundred Flowers Mountain
The parade of floats lasted all morning, and in the afternoon, there were various celebrations. Everyone was immersed in the joy of the festival and put the disappearance of the Soul Master behind them.
Some couples use this holiday to express their love and commit to each other for life, while others propose on this day.
Di Hong and Tang Yuehua strolled hand in hand through the city, enjoying the festive atmosphere. Only the brothers Tang Xiao and Tang Hao were still miserably investigating, as this festival had absolutely nothing to do with them.
On a rooftop.
Tang Hao lay there, looking at the azure sky, which was clear and blue, with a gentle breeze carrying the fragrance of flowers into the distance.
Tang Xiao stood there with his arms crossed, watching the jubilant crowd below.
"We've searched everywhere except the Hundred Flowers Mountain near the City Lord's Mansion and the Spirit Hall in Flower City, but we haven't found anything." Tang Hao sat up. He was starting to wonder if they had suspected the wrong target, and if the disappearance of the spirit masters had nothing to do with the City Lord's Mansion.
Otherwise, how could they have found absolutely no trace of it?
Tang Xiao looked towards Baihua Mountain.
"Baihua Mountain is currently closed off; we can only enter by evening."
To maintain its mystique, Baihua Mountain is currently off-limits to visitors. Of course, after so many years of hosting the Baihua Festival, Baihua Mountain has long since lost its secrets, but the proper procedures still need to be followed.
"Brother, haven't you noticed? The city lord hasn't shown up yet."
"Logically speaking, he shouldn't have been absent from such an important festival."
Tang Xiao shook his head: "I don't know, the city lord should appear tonight."
"Let's wait, let's wait, we'll go to Hundred Flowers Mountain tonight." Tang Hao lay back down, bored.
"No, we'll go to the City Lord's Mansion tonight," Tang Xiao said calmly.
"Huh?" Tang Hao asked, puzzled.
Tang Xiao said, "If the city lord goes to Hundred Flowers Mountain tonight, then we will secretly sneak into the city lord's mansion to investigate."
"Be a thief?" Tang Hao chuckled, but what greeted him was Tang Xiao's palm.
Tang Xiao patted Tang Hao on the shoulder and said irritably, "You're going to investigate, not to be a thief."
"If the city lord has no problem, we'll leave."
Tang Hao nodded: "Alright, should we inform Di Hong and Yue Hua?"
Tang Xiao shook his head slightly: "No need. Let them enjoy their trip. There's no need for them to get involved in this. Besides, you and I are more than capable of handling this."
He refused to believe it. Could it be that two Soul Saints couldn't handle this? Even if they fought, they weren't afraid.
There isn't a single Soul Saint in Huacheng. To put it dramatically, all the Soul Masters in Huacheng combined might not be a match for the two of them.
So no need to worry.
In the evening, the city lord's convoy left the city lord's mansion and headed towards Hundred Flowers Mountain.
Meanwhile, the people in the city also headed towards Hundred Flower Mountain. Of course, not many people went to Hundred Flower Mountain. It wasn't that people didn't want to go, but that going to Hundred Flower Mountain required spending money. It cost ten gold soul coins per person, and ordinary people couldn't bear to spend ten gold soul coins to admire the flowers.
Moreover, it's not an ordinary person who can come up with ten gold soul coins.
Di Hong and Tang Yuehua arrived at the foot of Baihua Mountain in a carriage. There was only one road leading up the mountain, and the city's defense troops were stationed at the foot of the mountain.
Tang Yuehua lifted the curtain and looked outside.
Although not many people came, there were still nearly 10,000 people.
Each person gets ten gold soul coins, which adds up to approximately 100,000 gold soul coins.
Di Hong stepped down from the carriage, then extended his hand, and Tang Yuehua took his hand as they stepped down from the carriage.
Although it's just at the foot of the mountain, you can see the unopened flowers covering the entire mountainside as soon as you look up. These flowers were specially selected and will all bloom at the same time tonight.
At the same time, you can clearly see the huge colorful lotus.
After paying twenty gold soul coins, the two headed up the mountain.
As they walked up the mountain, Di Hong made a joke.
"This city lord's mansion is very fair. No matter what your status is, everyone has to pay ten gold soul coins."
"Then do you think Emperor Xueye would pay ten gold soul coins if he came?" Tang Yuehua asked with a smile.
Di Hong thought for a moment.
"If Emperor Xueye comes, the City Lord's Mansion should give him ten gold soul coins."
"This is utterly outrageous! I've never heard of a city lord daring to accept money from the emperor."
The two walked hand in hand up the mountain, seeing many couples along the way, some with the man carrying the woman on his back, which Tang Yuehua found somewhat enviable.
Di Hong saw this and then walked up to her and squatted down.
"Come on, I'll carry you on my back."
Tang Yuehua naturally leaned on his back, and then Di Hong carried her up the mountain. Along the way, some people saw this and, unwilling to admit defeat, wanted to overtake him.
Suddenly, the couples and spouses on the mountain road started competing with each other, none of them willing to concede to the other.
What good is it if your wife is beautiful and has a great figure? Can you be as fast as me?
Actually, everyone wants to find a good spot to enjoy the flowers. Otherwise, in a crowded situation, you need to find a good spot to better appreciate the blooming flowers all over the mountains.
Soon, Di Hong reached the top of the mountain. Although he was not the first to set off, he was the first to arrive at the top and found an excellent spot.
Looking out from here, there is an endless sea of flowers in the distance, though none of them are in full bloom.
Just a few dozen meters behind them was the enormous colorful lotus.
The lotus was already quite large from a distance, but when you get up close, you are truly amazed by its size.
The colorful lotus is nearly 100 meters tall; if it were to bloom, it would probably cover the entire mountaintop.
The summit platform of Baihua Mountain is not very large.
If tens of thousands of people gathered, it would definitely be too crowded. Most people chose to stay halfway up the mountain, and only a few hundred people made it to the top.
The fiery red sun in the west is slowly setting, while the moon is slowly rising in the east.
The sunset on the horizon was exceptionally beautiful, and Tang Yuehua admired the stunning scenery.
Just then, Di Hong seemed to smell a fishy odor.
"Can you smell something?"
"Taste?" Tang Yuehua asked, puzzled.
"No, isn't the only fragrance here the scent of flowers?"
Di Hong shook his head: "It smells like blood, very faint, mixed with the fragrance of flowers."
"Really?" Tang Yuehua sniffed carefully and there did seem to be a faint smell of blood, but it was so faint that it was hard to detect.
"There really is some, but why does this place smell of blood?"
Tang Yuehua looked around. Although she could smell the blood, she couldn't find where the smell was coming from. Di Hong looked at the lotus flower.
"If I'm not mistaken, the smell of blood should be coming from this lotus flower."
"A lotus flower." Tang Yuehua looked at the huge colorful lotus flower, and the bloody smell was actually coming from inside it.
She seemed to understand something.
"No wonder no one noticed it all these years."
"It seems that the City Lord's Mansion has ulterior motives for holding this Flower Festival."
The fragrance of the flowers masked the faint smell of blood, and with the mountains and fields covered in wildflowers, most people wouldn't even be able to smell the almost negligible stench of blood.
Chapter 115 Finding the Passage
Chapter 115 Finding the Passage
Surrounded by the crowd, City Lord Hua Yang arrived at the top of Hundred Flowers Mountain. As soon as he stepped up, he saw Di Hong and Tang Yuehua.
At the same time, Tang Yuehua's gaze also lingered on him.
Feeling that gaze that seemed to see right through him, Hua Yang couldn't help but swallow.
If it were just Tang Yuehua, it wouldn't be so scary, but there's also Di Hong.
At this moment, Di Hong was looking at the beautiful scenery on the horizon with his hands behind his back, completely ignoring Hua Yang behind him.
Tang Yuehua greeted her with a smile.
