Chapter 338: Yang Qianhuan Released
# 338. Yang Qianhuan Released
At the base of the Tower of Noble Spirit, Xu Qi'an tilted his head up to gaze at the towering structure. The eaves curled upward gracefully, and the levels stacked upon one another like a pagoda.
Starting from the second floor, each level featured an open corridor for observation. With spring sunlight gracing the seventh floor, the view was picturesque.
Xu Qi'an didn’t ascend immediately. He stood dazed for a while, adjusted his mink hat, and, without much expression, turned to the guard and said in a low voice, "Announce me."
Once the guard returned with a reply, Xu Qi'an ascended swiftly. Along the way, he encountered clerks who bowed in greeting, to which he only nodded slightly and replied with a short "Hm."
Entering the tearoom, stepping onto the soft reed rug , Xu Qi'an knelt beside the tea table. A cup of steaming tea had already been prepared, and Wei Yuan sat calmly reading a book.
"Duke Wei, I have something to report," Xu Qi'an began.
"Speak," Wei Yuan responded.
Xu Qi'an immediately explained the reasons for his involvement in the Conflict of Heaven and Man, detailing Daoist Jinlian's instructions and the reward of the Azure Pill.
