Blue Card Starry Sky

Chapter 64 Encounter
"Go, go, go, get me a glass of water. My mouth is parched, this liquor is too strong, and now my head is throbbing." Lan Tian ordered Yingying, slowly getting out of bed. He dared not drink like this again next time; such excessive drinking was definitely not good for his health, and even less helpful for his cultivation.

"Here you go, Brother Lantian. The three Yu siblings came to see you today! They left because they saw you weren't up yet." Yingying handed the water to Lantian and said casually.

"Ah, when? Why didn't you wake me up?" Hearing Yingying say this, he remembered that they had agreed to meet today, but he had forgotten about it and had been sleeping soundly until now.

"Can you even wake me up? I've patted and pulled you, but you still won't wake up. You're sleeping like a log, snoring away." Yingying felt wronged and said loudly.

"Okay, I misunderstood you. I'm sorry, my dear lady!" Lan Tian felt he had wronged Yingying and teased her with a playful smile.

"Hmph, I'm going back, I'm ignoring you!" Yingying said, and ran back to her room in a flash.

Watching Yi Mengying leave, Lan Tian smiled slightly. He hadn't done anything all day, and his head was still spinning after sleeping all day. He felt a little hungry, so he went straight to the hall and instructed the servants to prepare a meal for him.

At this moment, Qin Lei also walked in and shook his head repeatedly when he saw Lan Tian's helpless expression.

"Young Master, you're awake! So many people came to see you today, only to leave disappointed!"

"Uncle Lei, I know I was wrong. I won't drink so much next time. My head is still killing me!"

"Yeah, tomorrow's going to be busy." Qin Lei said before going off to attend to his own business.

After dinner and a few cups of hangover tea, I feel much better! After spacing out in the lobby for a while, Lantian returned to her room listlessly. Tomorrow will definitely be busy! I shouldn't think too much; I should get some sleep first. Tomorrow has its own things to do, so I should focus on getting my body in order and resting well.

Early the next morning, Yi Mengying woke Lan Tian up and asked him to take her to the largest palace in Sky City for a pilgrimage. She wanted to see the temple fair that everyone there went to worship at; today was the day of the pilgrimage.

"Okay, okay, I'll go with you, we'll go right away." Lan Tian reluctantly got up, washed up, and went out to accompany Yingying on her pilgrimage.

Along the way, there were many pilgrims, and people from all walks of life were heading towards the temple. The main road was crowded with people and carriages, and they were all devout men and women, young ladies and princesses from various families.

Yi Mengying loved this kind of scene the most. She was in high spirits, watching the princesses and young ladies from various ethnic groups, all adorned with jewels, dressed in gorgeous clothes, and looking beautiful. She was filled with envy and would often say this to Lantian.

"Look, how beautiful this young lady is, as beautiful as an angel." Lan Tian followed Yingying's gaze and indeed she was quite beautiful, comparable to Yingying.

"Ah, Sister Jia Hui! That's Sister Jia Hui! Brother Lan Tian, ​​hurry up and move closer!" Yi Mengying exclaimed excitedly at a carriage in the distance, urging Lan Tian to move his carriage closer. It turned out to be Yu Jiajie and Yu Jiachen's younger sister, Yu Jia Hui. They had visited the Lan residence yesterday, and Yi Mengying knew them well, especially Yu Jia Hui, whom she was very close to, like sisters. Seeing them now was like seeing a precious treasure; she insisted on staying close to them. The three Yu siblings were all together, so Lan Tian could travel with them and explain away his rudeness from yesterday.

"Blue Sky greets the three of you. I was impolite yesterday, please forgive me." Blue Sky quickly took the initiative to make amends, admitting that he had indeed been impolite.

"Brother Lan, no need to be so polite. Come over here and let's have a chat. Let my little sister go and join Yingying!"

"Okay, that's exactly what I was thinking." Before she could finish speaking, Yingying urged Yu Jiahui to come over quickly so that Lantian could immediately interrupt their whispered conversation. Lantian readily got off the carriage and let Jiahui board his own carriage with Yingying. Looking at Yi Mengying's excited expression, it really was a bit too much!
There was nothing to be done; it was best not to delve too deeply into a girl's thoughts, so let them be! Lan Tian swiftly boarded the Yu family's carriage, where he and the Yu brothers were already fast friends—they got along very well. Whispers rippled across the carriage, heroic spirits roamed freely; as long as everyone was doing well, that was all that mattered.

"Brother Lan, it's such a pity that we had a contest the other day, but you didn't even show up for the marriage recruitment!" Yu Jiachen said. He had been badly injured by the princess of the underwater city and had great respect for the city lord's daughter. He had no choice but to admit that he was not as skilled as her.

"That's not a good idea! How could I be a match for Brother Jiachen? Brother Jiachen, please take me around Sky City that day and find me some fun places to play!" Lan Tian didn't want to show off his strength right now; he just wanted to wander around Sky City and see what was special about it.

“Okay, okay, let’s go somewhere tomorrow, and I’ll come find you then.” Yu Jiachen’s interest was immediately piqued when he heard Lan Tian say that, and he thought of a place to go tomorrow.

Along the way, everyone chatted and laughed, having a great time. Lan Tian asked the two brothers for some information, and they told him everything without reservation, treating Lan Tian as their good brother and friend, without hiding anything from him.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye they arrived at the foot of the temple mountain. This was the only path leading up to the temple, the largest and most famous temple in Sky City, nestled on the mountainside. The steps leading up the mountain extended all the way to the main hall. These steps were very wide, allowing more than a dozen people to climb at the same time. From below, one could see the temple's grandeur and magnificent, shimmering splendor.

During this time, the foot of the mountain was already filled with all kinds of carriages, and servants from various families and clans had completely filled the area, all waiting for their masters to return from their pilgrimage. Yingying and Jiahui were now complaining that they hadn't come earlier; everyone else had already gone up the mountain to worship, while they were still here looking for a place to park.

Sigh, there was no other way. After finally settling the carriage, everyone immediately set off to climb the mountain for pilgrimage. It looked close, but it was a long climb. Before we were even halfway up, we were already out of breath. Everyone was exhausted, and looking around, everyone else was in the same boat, panting heavily.

"Let's take a break, I'm so tired," Yu Jiajie said, he was almost collapsing from exhaustion. It wasn't that he lacked strength, but rather that there was a mysterious energy barrier here that prevented him from using any energy attributes; he could only climb it by his own strength, and only sincere worship could bring about effective results.

"No!" The two young ladies objected in unison. They had heard that the pilgrimage would only be effective if one climbed up in one go, so they unanimously opposed resting and urged everyone to persevere, as they were almost there.

Lan Tian felt a certain pressure from the energy barrier here, but unlike the others, he didn't find it difficult; in fact, he felt relaxed. He had already endured it once in the other world, and it was even more intense than this, but he had survived it. This was a piece of cake! However, Lan Tian didn't show it and pretended to be suffering just as much as everyone else.
