Chapter 53 Plucking the Sun and Moon in Your Hands, There’s No One Like Me in the World!
Mu Youqing had a snake phobia ever since she was young
She was extremely afraid of even ordinary snakes, let alone a ferocious and terrifying snake like the Nine-Headed Heavenly Python.
Even the palm-sized Nine-Headed Heavenly Python almost made Mu Youqing faint from fear.
However, this didn’t affect their trip to the Absolute Beginning Holy Land.
After she recovered, Mu Youqing carried Xuan Zhu and Xuan Xi onto the pegasus.
Lin Xuan carried Xuan Han and Xuan You and rode another Heavenly Horse.
Then, the pegasus spread its wings and soared into the sky to bring them in the direction of the Absolute Beginning Holy Land.
The Absolute Beginning Holy Land was located at the southeast border of North Mystic Heaven, and it covered an area of 80 million kilometers.
A million miles outside the Holy Land’s sphere of influence, there was a country called the Zhai Yue Nation.
At noon, Lin Xuan and the others arrived at the Imperial City of Zhai Yue Nation.
After landing, Mu Youqing asked the pegasus to fly into the sky to wait for her orders. She was like a guide as she led Lin Xuan and the four babies forward.
“I’ve been to the Absolute Beginning Holy Land three times in total. I would come to the Zhai Yue Nation for fun every time.”
Mu Youqing told them about the interesting aspects of the Zhai Yue Nation. “The most famous landmark in the Zhai Yue Nation is Star-gazing Tower.”
“Not only is the food in this restaurant delicious, but we can also stand at the top of the restaurant and see the scenery of the starry sky millions of kilometers away, even during the day.”
Xuan Zhu and the others revealed shocked expressions. “Can we see stars during the day?”
Mu Youqing nodded. “Yes, but I can’t explain why.”
Lin Xuan said with a smile, “Actually, stars are also there during the day, but because the sunlight is too bright, they block the light of the stars.”
“And the reason you can see stars when on the Star-gazing Tower during the day is probably because of some special material. It can block the light of the day and reveal a small night sky. In this way, the stars can be seen.”
With the Absolute Mystic Sutra, Lin Xuan could instantly explain it. To put it bluntly, to see stars during the day, Star-gazing Tower must have something similar to the astronomical telescope in his previous life.
His breadth of knowledge was very impressive to Mu Youqing and the girls. “Father, you’re so impressive!”
“Yes, yes. Although I didn’t understand it, Father must be the most impressive!”
The little girls revealed looks of admiration.
Mu Youqing also looked at Lin Xuan with bright eyes. She was deeply shocked by his talent and knowledge.
“Not only is my cousin-in-law talented in literature, but your horizon and knowledge are also far beyond those of ordinary people.” “No wonder even a powerful woman like my cousin was willing to give birth to four babies for you.”
With this in mind, the few of them arrived at the entrance of Star-gazing Tower.
Seeing Lin Xuan’s handsome appearance, Mu Youqing’s beautiful appearance, and the cute four girls, the waiter from Star-gazing Tower immediately determined that they were all important figures.
She hurriedly greeted them with a smile, “Young Master, Miss, please come in!”
Lin Xuan and Mu Youqing brought the children
in.
The waiter said, “The most luxurious place in Star-gazing Tower is the Stargazing Pavilion on the top floor. It was built for esteemed guests.”
“The two of you are obviously extraordinary people. How about I bring you to the Star Observatory?”
Lin Xuan nodded casually. “Alright.”
“Then please follow me!” The waiter brought Lin Xuan and the others upstairs respectfully.
On the third floor, there was the most luxurious Stargazing Pavilion in this restaurant.
Lin Xuan saw that this pavilion was extremely vast and its interior was luxurious to the extreme.
The amber calyxes, bone porcelain lusters, and golden dragons were on par with those of the imperial palace halls of a country.
The entire Stargazing Pavilion was divided into four luxurious rooms.
They could observe while maintaining a certain level of privacy. They had really put in a lot of consideration.
Through the special glass ceiling above their heads, they could see the starry sky millions of miles away.
At this moment, the night hadn’t yet fallen, but the stars could be seen. They looked especially dreamlike and beautiful.
Xuan Zhu and the other two girls looked up.
They couldn’t help but exclaim, and they were immersed in the beautiful starry sky for a moment.
After watching for a while, Lin Xuan and Mu Youging sat down with the children.
While they were waiting for the dishes to be served, the waiter brought the Four Treasures of the Study and said respectfully,
“Young Master, why don’t you use the topic of ‘stargazing’ and write a poem or two?!”
Lin Xuan asked in amusement, “Your restaurant even has the rule of writing poems before eating?”
The waiter shook his head. “It’s not a rule. It’s just a gimmick. Most of the nobles who come to the Stargazing Pavilion like to leave behind some calligraphy.”
“Whether it’s a gimmick or a rule, there’s no need.” Lin Xuan was too lazy to do such a pretentious thing.
Mu Youqing hurriedly said, “Cousin-in-law, why don’t you write it? You’re talented in literature, so you should show off some more!”
“That’s right!” Xuan Zhu agreed.
Xuan Xi smiled. “Father, I want to see you write!”
Xuan Han nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes, yes. I want to see Daddy write a verse about the stars!”
Xuan You nodded. “Yes, yes, yes!”
Seeing how expectant his daughters were, Lin Xuan could only agree. “Alright.”
Then, he picked up the brush and wrote on the white paper. The sun and moon are in my hands, there’s no one like me in the world!
Mu Youqing’s face stiffened and she praised, “What a beautiful poem!”
The waiter also couldn’t help but clap and praise, “Young Master, I have seen countless esteemed guests leave behind calligraphy here, but none of them can compare to what you wrote!” “The sun and moon are in my hands, there’s no one like me in the world’. How profound!”
The waiter’s words also attracted the attention of the guests in the other three rooms.
Upon hearing him recite the poem, the men and women in the three private rooms immediately gathered around.
“This poem complements the Star-gazing Tower and showcases unparalleled charm. It’s really a masterpiece in history!”
“What a profound poem. It’s so sophisticated!”
“Indeed. Just these two lines are enough for you to be a legendary Poet. I didn’t expect to encounter an expert today!”
The men and women gathered were all wealthy and influential people of North Mystic Heaven.
However, when they saw Lin Xuan’s two lines of the poem, they revealed looks of admiration.
Among them, there were two or three young and beautiful heiresses who wished they could go forward and get to know Lin Xuan.
However, when they saw Mu Youqing, who looked like a goddess, sitting beside him, they could only give up.
“Young Master, I’ll frame these two lines for you and hang them in the shop!”
After the waiter finished speaking, he carried the poem Lin Xuan had written and went downstairs happily.
He knew that this handsome young master he met today was definitely an impressive figure.
Star-gazing Tower would definitely benefit greatly from obtaining this treasure!
Lin Xuan didn’t stop the waiter.
They could do whatever they wanted with this casually written verse. Lin Xuan thought nothing of it.
Then, the dishes were served. The boss of Star-gazing Tower personally went upstairs. Not only did he waive Lin Xuan and the others’ orders, but he also gave them two jars of good wine that had been kept for hundreds of years.
Because Lin Xuan didn’t introduce himself, the boss of Star-gazing Tower didn’t dare to ask.
After dinner, Lin Xuan and Mu Youqing stood at the top of the Star-gazing Tower with the children. They leaned against the railing and looked into the distance to admire the scenery of the Zhai Yue Nation.
As Star-gazing Tower wasn’t far from the Zhai Yue Nation’s royal palace, Lin Xuan, who was standing high up, quickly attracted the attention of many people in the imperial palace.
