Chapter 291.3: Taken Away
“The two of you really look just too much alike. The first time I saw you, I was already suspicious but you actually hid it very well. If not for the time that you got into the Scrolls Chamber so easily, a place that even Cang Jian was unable to get close to, I might really have been deceived by you.”
“You might not know this, but only the godly lord himself and people who were chosen to keep the Scrolls Chamber tidy are able to enter that place. Since then, there had only been one exception to that rule, and that was my youngest sister Qing Lan Fei, the goddess born with possession of phoenix fire. The magnetic field of her blood unexpectedly coincides with the Scrolls Chamber’s and that was why she was able to go in and out at will.”
“Besides that, no one else was able to gain entry into the Scrolls Chamber. But you, you became the second exception after her.”
Qing Luo Yan’s gaze was fixed closely on her as she continued on, pausing at every word. “Because in your body, you inherited the phoenix fire that she possessed.”
Qing Yu would never have ever thought that she had slipped up there.
Qing Yu curved up the ends of her lips. Though her identity had just been exposed, her expression still did not show the slightest fear or panic, but she went on to say with an indifferent smile on her face: “Since the Temple Lord already knows my real identity, I need not play tachi with you any longer.

Qing Luo Yan did not continue with her words, but just threw her head back in laughter. Under the bright moon’s illumination, at the corners of the woman’s extremely beautiful eyes, it looked as though the faint glimmer of tears could suddenly be seen flowing.
At that same moment, Qing Yu sensed something else and she lifted her head up to look, only to discover that the moon that was lacking had only one half of a sphere left.
The thing that did not change was that it was still exceptionally bright, but seemed brighter than before. The moon was clearly hanging in the sky a far distance away but it seemed as if it was so close at the same time, so close that its cold chill could almost be felt, sending tingles up a person’s spine.
Qing Yu’s eyes narrowed as she stared up at the sudden flurries of snow falling down from the sky, landing on her shoulders and her hair. The temperature in the air plummeted in an instant, so icy cold that it seemed like it would freeze the blood in a person and seep right into their bones.
If she was not dressed in her thin and light summer dress at that moment, she might very have thought that it was winter.
But, that chillingly cold season had clearly passed not that long ago.
That strange and bizarre scene immediately made Qing Yu clenched up her hands tightly subconsciously, as she surveyed her surroundings warily,
