LGS - Chapter 557 - Refining the Lake of Dragons and Snakes

In the commandery city of Ruyi, within the great general’s estate, joss paper filled the air. White banners trailed into the distance.

An empty coffin sat on the mourning altar.

Below, the descendants of the Han family were dressed in mourning attire, kneeling on the ground. However, underneath their white clothes was sturdy armour.

The sandalwood incense burned quietly. There was not a single sob. Only the endless sound of autumn rain could be heard from outside.

Outside the mourning hall, armoured soldiers stood in formation with their weapons. The rain fell on their icy-cold armour. All of them were sorrowful.

The Marquis of Ruyi’s funeral was being carried out at the same time. A downcast cloud loomed over the entire city.

“Commander Gu arrives!”

A messenger reported. The soldiers all lifted their weapons as their armour clanked like thunder.

Gu Yanying made her way over down the centre of the path. She stepped into the mourning hall, paid her respects, and offered up incense. She did not say much, turning around and leaving immediately. Her gaze swept past the descendants of the Han family in front of the mourning altar, only to see Han Qiongzhi among them. She glanced past her before flying out the door.

She pierced through the cloud layer and began to drift down gently like a feather. She lay between the white clouds.

She rested her head on her hands and closed her eyes, crossing one leg over the other leisurely as she took a small break.

After lying for a while, she frowned and changed her posture. She laid on her side before flipping over before eventually leaning on the clouds. She tossed and turned a full cycle before returning to her original, flat posure. She recited slowly, “His life is like floating; his death is like resting. He ‘does not dream when he is asleep, does not worry when he is awake.’ Sorrow and joy are perversions of integrity; happiness and anger are transgressions of the Dao; likes and dislikes are failings of the mind.”
