Chapter 915: Chapter 913 Ancestral Remnant Chapter 915: Chapter 913 Ancestral Remnant True Moonlight Grove!
As Selana sighed in wonder, Fu Qian also noticed what she was pointing at.
Right in front of them, not too far to the right, stood a most peculiar sight.
Beams of moonlight of exaggerated brightness fell straight from the sky, densely covering an area. At a rough estimate, there probably were hundreds of beams, looking quite like a grove at a glance.
Upon closer inspection, some special traces could be observed within the grove–the remnants of some ancient structure, it seemed.
“Is that the place?”
Fu Qian confirmed with Selana, who nodded in response.
“The grove’s location is never fixed when it appears, but it’s always there. Let’s make haste.”
Before the words could completely fade away, Selana’s wings spread once more as she dashed towards the target like lightning.
The distance was even farther than it appeared, and both demigods exerted themselves before finally arriving near the grove.
Standing close by, the exaggerated size of each moonlight beam was even more striking, their brightness nearly blinding.
“What do you think?”
In front of this magnificent sight, Selana asked with an eerily delighted smile after a brief moment of astonishment.
What are you so proud of!
Seeing Selana’s “impressive, right? Isn’t it scary?” attitude, Fu Qian couldn’t help but mock her internally.
“767 beams.”
In the next moment, Fu Qian gave a nod.
“…Did you count them all just now?”
The expression of the Bloodline Clan’s magic young lass bordered on terror.
“Did I get the count right?”
Professional consultant Fu Qian smirked proudly.
“How would I know if it’s right or not… But why would you do something so pointless? You counted pretty fast, that much is true.”
Selana couldn’t help but growl softly, puzzled by Fu Qian’s frivolous behavior yet acknowledging his rapid counting skills.
“I didn’t count them; I was guessing.”
However, in the next moment, Fu Qian, who had just been praised, naturally shook his head.
“I just wanted to see if you’d counted them, and clearly, you never have in all these years.”
…
Without a word, Selana stepped into the Moonlight Grove and began moving swiftly through it.
“It’s clear that what troubles you isn’t some elusive, unsolvable mystery.”
Fu Qian followed effortlessly and continued his casual commentary.
Upon entering the grove, the difference from the outside was immediately noticeable.
The standing columns of light, with their exaggerated brightness, made it feel as if one were beneath a shadowless lamp on an operating table.
Simultaneously, the speed of the accumulated restraints also increased.
“Why are you so sure?”
Skillfully dodging the columns of light, Selana finally couldn’t resist asking.
“If there was really some unsolvable mechanism, the most basic thing to do would be to count the number of trees, seeing if the quantity varies each time you enter, and look for a pattern. But you didn’t do that.”
Fu Qian mimicked her moves, weaving through the beams as well. Each ray of moonlight stood still, and despite their density, avoiding them was not difficult.
“Was that your purpose just now?”
Selana stopped in her tracks, looking at Fu Qian with a touch of surprise.
The more contact she had with him, the more terrifying aspects of him she discovered.
That seemingly frivolous act of his had easily extracted information from her.
No wonder Yuan Shan relied so heavily on his advice.
“Hard to say, it might also be that I’m just making it up now, and that I really did count them earlier, merely sharing my thoughts with you.”
Unfortunately, Fu Qian was even more troublesome than she had imagined, and he even gestured with his chin towards the front.
“Check the count and see if it’s correct, and then you should be able to confirm it.”
…
Selana naturally wouldn’t be fooled into doing such a tedious task by Fu Qian, and turned her head to discern their direction before continuing on.
“Yes, I’ve always known it was there, but it felt too dangerous, and at the same time, it was a kind of offense to the Ancestor, so I’ve never been able to make up my mind.”
However, she soon confirmed Fu Qian’s speculation.
“Here.”
The next moment, she even casually pointed towards the deeper parts of the grove.
Fu Qian followed the direction she pointed and saw a small hill with slight undulations.
To be precise, it was the remains of some ancient building wrapped in countless grains of silver sand.
It had a spire akin to that of a religious building, but it was already slightly tilted, standing amidst the fine sand.
“To go inside?”
Fu Qian surveyed the landscape and spotted something resembling a door on the debris.
“Right.”
Selana, without saying much, weaved through the air consecutively and landed steadily on the hill, her expression solemn as she looked up.
“I think I know why you were afraid to go in.”
Standing next to her, Fu Qian was now able to see the view inside the entrance.
The inside was just as desolate and disordered, but one glance revealed an especially conspicuous stone statue.
It had massive wings, smooth lines, and a gentle and profound expression on its face, clearly that of a woman.
Regrettably, that face was now on the ground.
It was unclear whether it was due to the erosion of time, but the upper body of the statue had already broken in half.
At the same time, because of the tilted angle, there happened to be a shaft of light shining down from above, illuminating half of the statue’s face brightly, like the obscured half of the moon.
“Your Ancestor? Have to say, she does look quite kind.”
Feeling a trace of strange energy lingering on the statue, Fu Qian glanced at Selana.
The head and moonlight nearly blocked the essential path.
The strong moonlight indicated a strong confining effect, and though it might be somewhat bearable, if the statue really was of Annalise, for Selana to enter, she would definitely have to cross over it. For the Bloodline Clan, who placed great importance on hierarchy and respect, such an act of desecration would still require considerable courage.
“Yes, I can’t be particularly certain of the Ancestor’s appearance, but the energy is definitely correct.”
Selana confirmed Fu Qian’s guess.
“And you’ve been worshipping here for so many years, never daring to go in?”
“You don’t understand, the pressure is different for the Bloodline Clan,”
Selana shook her head.
“I can clearly feel that the Ancestor doesn’t want us to enter and disturb her, to oppose such a will requires tremendous strength. Previously, at best I’ve only approached the doorway… If I really wanted to go deeper, it’s very likely I’d lose the power to resist the confinement in a short time.”
“That’s pretty much what I thought.”
Fu Qian nodded.
“So there is a way to go deeper inside?”
“There’s a passageway leading downward,”
Selana quickly said.
“I think it leads into the interior of the building.”
“Well, you’re in luck, having a cross-boundary ally has its advantages right here.”

Fu Qian chose to take the initiative.
“I’ll take a look; your Ancestor probably won’t have such a big problem with me.”
“No… I can’t allow you to do that.”
Unfortunately for his eagerness, Selana rejected the idea without a second thought.
“I’ll go in with you.”
