"Ah?" Being recognized caught Pei Ma'er by surprise, she looked carefully at Qin Chuan and Lin Yue, seeming to discern something from beneath their concealed attire, her eyes widened unexpectedly, "You guys..."
Thinking of something, Pei Ma'er quickly fell silent, cautiously looking around before lowering her voice, "Why are you here?"
"We just ascended to the Heavenly Dome Rank and are now just wandering around," Lin Yue said with a smile, without hiding this fact.
After all, the higher ups of the six major clans would definitely know by now.
"No wonder I felt that you two were different from before," Pei Ma'er revealed an enlightened expression, then sweetly smiled, "Anyway, congratulations on your success!"
Looking at her sincere smile, Qin Chuan and Lin Yue also smiled.
"Pei Ma'er, you mentioned earlier that Gohn Territory is not that important to the Moon Spirit Clan, so why are there so many Moon Spirits here?" Lin Yue inquired curiously, "Also, weren't you in Masiso Territory? How did you come here?"
"It's quite a distance from Masiso Territory to here, right?"
"You sure have a lot of questions, Sister Yue Li," Pei Ma'er chuckled, "These questions are not difficult to answer."
"The reason Gohn Territory has so many of our clan is because there will soon be a very important ceremony held in Gohn Territory, with many Moon Spirits rushing over from other places to participate."
"But this ceremony does not necessarily have to be held in Gohn Territory, any place where the Moon Spirits serve as Lords is suitable, it's just that this time Gohn Territory was chosen."
"So it's not that Gohn Territory is very important and has so many Moon Spirits," Pei Ma'er said with a smile, "As for why I'm here, of course, I'm here to attend the ceremony."
"When a clan has multiple Lords, the corresponding territories allow transportation for that clan."
"The previous Lord of Masiso Territory was killed, the new Lord is now one of our Mythical Rank, so I could directly teleport from Masiso Territory to Gohn Territory."
"Speaking of which, I should thank you two," Pei Ma'er winked, looking at the two, "because I helped you, I was able to secure a spot in this ceremony."
"And the Nether River Demon God as well..."
Pei Ma'er did not continue, but Qin Chuan and Lin Yue both revealed strange expressions.
Killing a Lord in an instance did not allow one to obtain the corresponding Lord Token.
And almost every SSS-ranked instance they did required killing a Lord.
There was always a frustrating feeling as if sewing wedding clothes for others.
At this moment, the purple crystal pendant on Pei Ma'er's chest suddenly lit up.
"Huh?" Pei Ma'er looked surprised, then raised her head towards Qin Chuan and Lin Yue, "The Main Priest has asked if you would like to join the ceremony."
"She, on behalf of the Moon Spirit Clan, welcomes you to observe."
"Is it the Purple Moon Priest, Mahiya?" Qin Chuan looked at Pei Ma'er's pendant thoughtfully.
It seemed this pendant had some sort of monitoring capability.
Through Pei Ma'er, Mahiya already knew of their arrival.
"Mhm!" Pei Ma'er smiled, "This is the Guardian Talisman gifted by the Main Priest, which automatically activates when strong beings of other clans appear nearby."
"So... are you coming?" Pei Ma'er looked at them with hopeful eyes, "The Spirit Moon Festival is quite lively, and there will be lots of delicious food too!"
Qin Chuan and Lin Yue exchanged a glance.
"Shall we... go and take a look?" Qin Chuan stroked his chin.
There was a suspicious aspect of this matter, which was the location of this Spirit Moon Ceremony.
Gohn Territory was right next to the White Flood Dragon Territory, which seemed too much of a coincidence.
But upon further thought, they had only just arrived at the Heavenly Dome Rank today; a major ceremony of the Moon Spirit Clan couldn't have been decided today.
He must be overthinking it.
The Moon Spirit Clan always had a mysterious veil to them that no other clans possessed, and if they could take this opportunity to understand more about the Moon Spirit Clan, that would be quite nice.
Lin Yue closed her eyes to sense subtly, then slowly opened them, "Let's go."
Prayer did not give her any negative feedback, meaning this was not a trap set by the Moon Spirit Clan for the two of them.
They just happened to be present.
In that case, it wouldn't hurt to go and enjoy the festive atmosphere.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the site of the Spirit Moon Ceremony, the Main Priest is waiting there for you," Pei Ma'er said with a sweet smile.
This Spirit Moon Ceremony was very important to her.
Qin Chuan and Lin Yue were some of the few friends she had on the Heavenly Dome Rank, and she was overjoyed that they agreed to watch the ceremony!
The site of the Spirit Moon Ceremony was located in the main city of Gohn Territory.
Qin Chuan and Lin Yue quickly followed Pei Ma'er to the venue, a vast square platform.
At that moment, a massive and majestic altar had already been constructed in the square, similar to a pyramid in design but several kilometers in height, which was truly astonishing.
Below the altar, hundreds of Moon Spirits were busy making final touches and preparations.
Not far away, a Moon Spirit woman draped in purple gauze, with rings of the Moon Wheel behind her head, was surrounded protectively by several Moon Spirits, she seemed to sense something, looked towards Qin Chuan and Lin Yue, then stepped forward with her entourage.
It was none other than the Purple Moon Priest, Mahiya.
Behind Mahiya, two powerful male Moon Spirits followed closely, both possessing Mythical Rank strength, currently guarding her sides like bodyguards and looking at Qin Chuan and Lin Yue with wary eyes.
