Bab 341: Memory Lane

It was true, he really should have asked better questions. But back then Qi Lou honestly had no idea what he was facing. At the time of the occurrence, he simply saw it as something interesting to pass the time. It was only after "Jun Kai" left that the bright idea dawned on him...an idea he now questioned the validity of. But it was too late to turn back now, he had dealt the cards and the damage had been done. 

Once he recalled the memory of Jun Kai's visit that night in the crystal cave many years ago, Qi Lou had promptly gone to his most secretive vault of treasures to seek out the crystal he had long kept hidden in the most obscure of his trove. This crystal was his most precious gem for what it held - a swirling wave of golden light swam about inside it. What that crystal held was, in actual essence, a piece of an old friend he had lost a long, long time ago... A piece that had now become known as the Long country's Empress dowager.
