Qin Xingluo quickly woke up from his daze. When Lu Shiqian asked him that, he quickly ran through several possibilities in his mind.

What kind of waves would this news cause if it were spread? The emperor of the country was actually poisoned! The people would be in chaos if this gets out, foreign nations would start eyeing them, they may even try to invade them! Such a big thing was met with a casual “oh” from Lu Shiqian.

Qin Xingluo couldn’t help wonder if she really is a citizen of Qin.

Of course she isn’t a Qin citizen: she’s thoroughly Chinese! The good and bad, life and death of the Qin Empire has nothing to do with her! However, this body and identity she was using is a part of Qin. With a guilty conscience, Lu Shiqian decided to help Qin out once. She took out the Devil Fruit and tossed it over to Qin Xingluo. Walking forward, she decided to find a way out first.

The three were completely stunned and Lu Shiqian silently screamed. A palace of this size cannot be made in her world. Perhaps, such a beautiful and magnificent palace can only be constructed in this mysterious world. But when was this palace made and for what reason? Why was it built at the bottom of this cliff?

Lu Shiqian sat down cross-legged in the corridor of the palace. She calmly took out two deer legs and started grilling it!

Her behavior, especially when it’s in front of such a magnificent sight, was rather strange and out of place. 

Qin Xingluo looked at her speechlessly: this person sure doesn’t know how to appreciate beauty! He was born in the royal family and naturally lived in luxury. He also has many requirements regarding food, clothing, and accommodations. His eye is many times sharper than others. Thus, he felt even more awestruck by this palace’s beauty and mysterious atmosphere! He almost wanted to stay here— at the bottom of this mountain— forever!

The palace is of course beautiful, but after appreciating it you should just get over it. Life is more important. Who knew how long they’ll be stuck here? It’s most important they kept their strength. Eat when you need to, drink when you need to, these were Lu Shiqian’s thoughts.
