On the Stargazing Platform where the morning mist had yet to dissipate, Luna wove the Light Element into Fine Threads that ensnared the Silver Bell.
As her little feet pedaled with an innocent Awareness, the bell suddenly chimed out Qingyue Mingxiang, startling twelve Moonlight Butterflies resting on the stone carvings.
These magical creatures, shimmering with a Pearl Luster, formed a fragmented Star Map in the air, perfectly overlapping with the Iris Pattern on Aelia's ring finger.
"Is Xiao Luna being mischievous again?" Aelia teased, pinching the baby Luna, only to feel her Fingertip suddenly scorched by the warmth of the Star Map.
She abruptly recalled the patterns of last night's Mirror Seal, about to inquire when she noticed the Little One in her arms was focused on gnawing at the edge of the Embroidered Gold Thread swaddling, her grape-like eyes filled with innocent wonder.
Suddenly, urgent footsteps echoed from the Crystal Corridor. Qin Si rushed in, holding up her Skirt: "My lady, the Lord has returned early and is in a rage at the Thunder Hall." Frosty fragments clung to her sleeves, clearly from her recent passage through the snowstorm-covered courtyard.
Seizing the opportunity, Luna infused the Light Element into her mother’s cascading silver hair.
As Aelia stepped into the Thunder Hall, the moonlight flowing from her hair illuminated the hanging " Frostwolf Pact " on the wall—an oath of loyalty drawn in blood by the First Generation Fortress Lord Couple. At that moment, the gold foil lettering of the third Contract was eerily fading.
"The Snow Demon from the Northern Icefield has suddenly turned against its allies." Leonard unfastened his cloak, which was dusted with ice crystals, and his Xuan Tie Wristguards clashed against the table with a dull thud.
He reached out to touch his wife's delicate shoulders but was blocked by a suddenly fluttering Moonlight Butterfly. "Those old fools from Starfall Pavilion..."
"Starfall Pavilion only recognizes the Moonlight Crown." Aelia sidestepped her husband's hand, and an Ice Crystal Rose tucked in her hair burst into bloom.
At just the right moment, Luna let out a soft Giggling, her chubby fingers pointing at the missing part of the Contract. Baby saliva coalesced in mid-air into a translucent "Lunar Phase" rune.
Leonard's pupils constricted sharply as a shrill cry emanated from the soul insects entwined in gold thread on his sword.
He forcefully changed the subject: "The caravan from Crystal City needs a Passage Permit issued by the Magic Castle. I recall you have kept hold of the City Lord's Seal..."
"The seal cannot touch blood for several days each month." Aelia caressed Luna's neck where the newly brightened Silver Bell hung. The warning spell of last night's Mirror Seal flickered faintly at her collarbone.
When she lifted her gaze, she caught sight of an uncleaned rosy lip mark on Leonard's neck reflected in ice blue Luna's eyes.
The air in the Thunder Hall suddenly crystallized into sharp Ice Shards.
Luna pretended to be startled by a sudden Cold Wave, her small hands grasping Leonard's talisman as the infused Light Element instantly severed the soul-controlling gold thread entwined around it.
With a crisp cracking sound, Brother San projected the hidden chamber Leonard's Last Night using Dark Element, revealing a woman wrapped in Gold Thread, who was wearing Aelia's lost Emerald Bracelet from last year on her wrist.
"It seems the Snow Demon’s backlash is a ruse, but someone is eager to find a snow shelter for their new lover," Aelia's cold laugh startled all the Moonlight Butterflies. She lifted Luna to meet her husband's gaze. "Why not let this child see how the Founding Lady dealt with traitors in the painting of Thunder Hall's Dome?"
Veins bulged on Leonard's forehead as Leonard's Sword rattled Jian Qiao ominously.
When he caught sight of the amulet fragment Luna was toying with, his tone suddenly turned earnest. "That child has awakened the Frostwolf Bloodline; we can't let him wander alone..."
A heavy thud echoed from outside the East Wall as Second Brother's Magic Messenger eagle crashed through the Colored Window, clutching a blood-stained Starfall Pavilion badge in its talons.
Aelia, while adjusting Luna’s bow, avoided her husband's gaze. The pearl-embroidered satin ribbon twisted into a Thorn shape, drawing blood from her palm.
"Three days from now, at the lowest point of the Lunar Phase, I will send someone to bring him into the fortress," Leonard pressed down on the fading Contract. The Gold Thread soul insect crawled along his fingertip toward Luna. "After all, Mother also..."
Suddenly, Luna sneezed, sparkling with starlight, and the soul insect was instantly vaporized by Light Element.
Aelia stepped back and knocked over a Bronze Candlestick. The melting Wax twisted on the Ground into an "unforgivable" inscription in Ancient Elvish Language, while the innocent baby in her arms gnawed on her glowing finger as if all the strange occurrences were unrelated to her.
A roar from the West Tower signaled Lucius triggering the Teleportation Circle; the Moonlight Crown of the First Generation Castle Lord's Lady was about to appear.
Aelia handed Luna over to the arriving Qin Si. As she turned, petals from the Ice Crystal Rose fell like rain, forming a small grave where the Contract had completely vanished.
The fragrance of Ice Crystal Rose floated amidst the Contract Ashes as Aelia’s Embroidered Shoes brushed against pearls scattered across the floor.
Qin Si retreated behind an Enamel screen with Luna in her arms when suddenly, the baby’s neck bell emitted a piercing Bronze Tremor.
"You let the Frostwolf Bloodline infiltrate Glorious Demon Fortress?" Aelia's ice spike hovered half an inch from Leonard's Adam's Apple. The candlelight cast their confronting shadows onto the Dome painted with legends of the Sacred Tree. "Those wildlings that devour livestock on full moon nights are worthy of bearing the holy mark created by First Patriarch?"
Luna grabbed Qin Si’s silver hair and, seizing the moment when her maid winced in pain and lowered her head, flicked the saliva-covered amulet fragment toward the Contract Ashes.
The Ice Crystal Rose suddenly grew wildly; its petals enveloped the fragment, forming a cocoon-like structure that emitted a sound reminiscent of a heartbeat.
The gem on Leonard's Sword began to seep black mist, but as it touched Aelia's Skirt, it was illuminated by the moonlight of Ailina's Burn.
He caressed the damaged Family Crest on Jian Qiao, his voice wrapped in the bitterness of Sandy Gravel. "That child can make the withered Starfall Vine bloom. During the bloodline test, even the Judgment Silver Cup of the Elder Council..."
"Just like your Mother filled the Judgment Silver Cup with Poisoned Wine?" Aelia's cold laugh startled the Blood-eyed Crow resting outside the window, and icicles formed at the tip of her Frostflower Incantation.
Luna suddenly giggled, her chubby Palm striking the Moonstone Pendant on Qin Si's chest. The entire Enamel screen suddenly reflected an illusion from Twenty Years Ago—young Leonard was planting a bloodied Starfall Vine in front of his Mother's grave.
Leonard's Pupil suddenly contracted, and Leonard's Sword unsheathed itself, shattering the illusion.
As the sword energy swept over Luna's head, Qin Si's Moonstone erupted with Moon Goddess Holy Light Shield, enveloping the infant in a silver Light Cocoon.
Aelia's icicle traced a Bloodline across her husband's neck. "If you touch her again, let your Frostwolf pup keep company with the First Patriarch's tombstone."
The Contract Ashes floating in the air suddenly coalesced into a Golden Butterfly, dancing a blessing around Luna's Light Cocoon.
When Leonard sheathed his sword, he tore off three strands of his Hair frozen in the icicle. The Hair fell to the ground and transformed into three shrieking Silver Ring Snakes, which were crushed into powder by Aelia's shoe embedded with a demon-repelling crystal.
"Just a joke." He smoothed out the wrinkles in his sleeve, and the Frostwolf Totem on his cuff appeared dull and dusty. "With you and Lucius around, the Heir of Glorious Demon Fortress would have long..."
Luna suddenly blew a bubble at Leonard. The bubble made of Light Element encapsulated the Magic Dust that had fallen from his cufflink and exploded between them into a sky full of Xing Xu.
Aelia used the motion of adjusting Luna's Infant Swaddling to gather Xing Xu into a miniature detection formation and shot it toward her husband's neck. However, upon touching his skin, it was devoured by Frostwolf Shadow.
"Has there been any unusual fluctuations with the Moonlight Star Pendant recently?" Leonard seemed to unintentionally wipe the sword hilt. "Last month when repairing the West Tower's Defensive Formation, I discovered that in the First Patriarch's Shou Zha it recorded..."
"The Holy Relic that passes to daughters but not sons doesn't require your Lordship’s concern." Aelia’s Fingertip brushed through Luna’s golden hair, where new moonlight-colored strands had emerged. Suddenly, a pearl from the infant’s Wrist shot out and pieced together on the wall the Inheritance Curse set by the First Generation Castle Lord's Lady.
Leonard raised his hand to catch the last pearl. As his Palm’s Bloodline patterns glowed, an image emerged on its surface: Concubine cradling Leonard's Last Night with Starfall Vine in slumber.
Luna suddenly let out a kitten-like Sobbing, and that pearl cracked in her cries, revealing within it a Moonlight Butterfly Pupa sealed for three hundred years.
"I'm just worried about you." He placed the cracked pearl into a Bronze Candlestick. The moment the pupa touched the flame, it transformed into Ice Blue Ashes. "After all, regarding the Teleportation Circle of West Tower..."
Aelia wrapped Luna's small hand, which began to emit the light of Yue Hui, in a lace handkerchief. The starry pattern on the infant's palm resonated with the curse on the wall.
As the ashes of the Moonlight Butterfly drifted out the window, the Blood-eyed Crow, which had been striking against the magic barrier, suddenly exploded into a mist of blood. The feathers inscribed with curses were washed white by the moonlight.
"In three days, we will hold the purification ceremony for the Moonlight Crown." She placed Luna into Qin Si's arms, and the fragrance of milk that the infant exhaled formed a small defensive formation in front of the maid. "My Lord, perhaps you should check the altar's Star Chart Device?"
Before leaving, Leonard hung Leonard's Sword on the porch, and the tail fur of Frostwolf brushed against Luna's ankle.
Immediately, a silver curse mark with tooth marks emerged on the infant's ankle, fading to a pale pink Luna amidst the ice crystals that Aelia scattered with a wave of her sleeve.
When his footsteps faded at the end of the spiral staircase, a crisp sound of jade pendants clashing suddenly came from Qin Si's arms—Luna had unknowingly grasped the Moonlight Star Pendant that Aelia had hidden in her bodice and was gnawing at the edge of the star pattern with her milk tooth.
Leonard's silver-gray cloak melted into moonlight at the turn of the stone steps, yet the ice crystals clinging to Aelia's cuffs remained undissipated.
When Qin Si placed Luna back into the lustrous cradle, she noticed several pieces of residual shadow from Frostwolf Totem resting in the infant swaddling, illuminated by the moonstone pendant to reveal a snake scale pattern.
"Madam, the tassel of the Starry Pendant..." Qin Si suddenly lowered her voice as her fingertip brushed against the jade pendant clutched by Luna.
The azure jadeite carved Starfall Vine suddenly twisted in the infant's palm, twisting the dangling silver threads into thorn-shaped forms.
Aelia's neck adorned with a moonlight-colored magic pattern suddenly grew warm.
She leaned down to untie Luna's pearl swaddling strap and discovered a diamond-shaped mark emerging from the baby's lower back—one that perfectly matched the Moonlight Star Pendant. It was a bloodline imprint left by the First Matriarch using tears from the Moon Goddess.
"How could he know about the abnormal fluctuations of the holy relic?" Aelia re-tied the jade pendant around her neck with dark purple thread infused with curses. As the cool jadeite pressed against her collarbone, intricate blood vein-like patterns suddenly appeared.
Luna stretched out her finger stained with milk to reach for those moving blood patterns but squinted as she touched them, blinded by a burst of silver light from the pendant.
Qin Si dripped warmed Moonlight Grass Juice onto the surface of the pendant and watched as Blue Blood Fern Juice condensed into seven Xing Zi that fell into the jadeite: "Last month during repairs at West Tower, craftsmen said they found a sacrificial talisman from Frostwolf Clan embedded in the foundation of the defensive formation.
My Lord... he must have already come into contact with taboo blood exchange secret techniques."
Outside, remnants of Blood-eyed Crow feathers stirred without wind and formed half an image of Frostwolf Totem against the window lattice.
As Aelia waved her sleeve to brush away the fallen crow feathers, Luna suddenly emitted an urgent sound—her chubby toes were hooked on the edge of the cradle, twisting the Star Pattern Chain into the shape of the Starfall Vine nestled in the Consort's arms.
"Madam, you must not give the Holy Relic to the Lord." Qin Si adjusted the Star Trail of the Defensive Formation back to its original position, a few strands of his silver hair severed by the chaotic magical currents. "Three hundred years ago, a branch of our family offered a jade pendant to quell a curse, and as a result, the entire clan was struck by the Bloodvine sent down by the Moon Goddess..."
Luna suddenly coughed violently, expelling milk foam that contained tiny fragments of Xing Mang.
When Aelia caught it with a lace handkerchief, the Xing Mang scorched a crescent-shaped black hole into the surface of the Cursed Fabric, revealing a glimpse of the Frostwolf tattoo emerging on the Consort's wrist.
The infant's fist, fragrant with milk, struck heavily against the jade pendant, causing cracks to form on its surface like strands of hair.
"Go fetch the First Patriarch's Moonlight Journal." Aelia submerged the pendant into a crystal cup filled with Chen Lu, watching as liquid of frost snow color seeped from the ice cracks. "We need Ankeli's copy written with Bloodvine and Blue Blood Fern Juice."
As Qin Si left, he automatically activated the defensive crystals in each corner of the room. However, as the door closed, flowing silver light was consumed by black mist spilling from the cracks in the jade pendant.
Luna rolled over and knocked over the crystal cup, splashing Chen Lu onto the bronze candlestick and dragging the sunlit room into a starry night illusion.
Aelia's moonlight hair moved without wind as she saw her eighteen-year-old self tying the jade pendant around the neck of an infant girl.
The baby's wrist was adorned with a starry birthmark identical to Luna's, yet her chest bore an Ice Crystal Pendant from the Frostwolf Clan.
Just as she reached out to touch the infant in the illusion, Luna let out a heart-wrenching loud cry, shattering the intertwining reality and illusion into ice shards.
"Madam!" Qin Si burst in, holding a shou zha wrapped in cursed cloth; his hair tips still clung to silk from the Forbidden Library. "The ashes of Moonlight Butterfly Pupa have formed Frostwolf paw prints in the corridor!"
As Aelia unfurled the shou zha, Luna's tears fell precisely onto the Forbidden Formation drawn with Bloodvine.
The parchment suddenly came alive, wrapping around the baby's wrist and etching a Moon Goddess totem opposite to that of the Consort's tattoo onto her palm with spikes.
The jade pendant floated away from the crystal cup in harmony with Luna's loud cry, hovering above her head and casting a circular halo.
"I see now..." Aelia's fingertip brushed against the tiny inscriptions blurred by blood tears on the shou zha. "The Moonlight Star Pendant has never been singular."
Luna suddenly reached out to grasp the jade pendant within the halo, and silver light bursting from the ice cracks enveloped her entirely.
As the light dissipated, three strands of moonlight-colored hair sprouted from the baby's head, resonating with Aelia's ear and the magic pattern, forming a Zhen Chan.
The ice cracks on the surface of the jade pendant had quietly healed at some point, leaving only a red dot resembling Zhusha on the seventh leaf of the Starfall Vine's relief.
Qin Si was about to say something when Luna suddenly bit down on the jade pendant, her milk teeth clashing against the jadeite, producing a sound reminiscent of Qing Yue and Zhong Ming.
The entire castle's defensive formation lit up simultaneously, and a roar came from the direction of the West Tower as the Star Chart Device collapsed.
Aelia held the suddenly quiet baby tightly and noticed that deep within her Liuli-colored pupils, a faint swirl of moonlight flickered, reminiscent of the forbidden spell cast by the First Matriarch three hundred years ago.
Aelia's fingertip brushed against the edge of the jade pendant's star pattern, and suddenly, the cool jadeite radiated a burning temperature.
Luna's Liuli-colored pupils abruptly contracted as memories from her past life, trapped within the baby's body, surged forth like a tide—before her death, it was with this very jade pendant that the First Matriarch sealed the bloodline curse of the traitor's daughter within a tear of the Moon Goddess.
"Yee... Ah!" Luna suddenly reached for the jade pendant, her delicate Ailya's white nails scraping across the Starfall Vine's relief with an ear-piercing sound.
Aelia's neck was suddenly enveloped in moonlight magic patterns that erupted with Yin Mang, and within the pendant came a child's clear laughter.
The defensive array surrounding the Lustrous Cradle twisted into thorns, ensnaring Aelia's wrist amidst Qin Si's startled cries.
"Madam, be careful!" Qin Si hurriedly tried to pull away those glowing thorns, but his fingertip was scratched by a barb, drawing forth a blood pearl.
The blood pearl fell onto the surface of the jade pendant, staining it with an image resembling Mei Yan—a girl strikingly similar to Luna—who wore an ice crystal necklace of the Frostwolf Clan around her neck and sweetly called out "Father" to Leonard while holding a Moonlight Star Pendant.
Aelia's moonlight hair suddenly danced wildly without wind, and the flames in the gilded candelabra instantly froze into ice crystals.
She raised the jade pendant to examine it closely; on the seventh leaf of the Starfall Vine, the Zhusha red dot was seeping with the blood stench of the Frostwolf Clan. "So he had already given her a counterfeit..."
Luna suddenly let out a sharp loud cry, her chubby little hands desperately pounding on the jade pendant.
The original magic power from her past life as a great mage surged within her bloodline, and new moonlight-colored hair among her infant locks ensnared the pendant like a spider web.
When her hair touched Shan Na of the star pattern, ancient demon script emerged on the surface of the pendant—only she could see it: "In the name of the Moon Goddess, seal your treasure."
"Ah!" Aelia suddenly cried out in pain and let go, the jade pendant was suspended in the air and violently Zhen Chan. The memories that Leonard had deliberately erased pierced into her mind like a sharp blade: on the night of delivery, the midwife stuffed the blood-stained jade pendant into her unconscious In Hand; on Full Moon Feast, Leonard personally put a fake Frostwolf collar on Eldest Daughter; and in the darkroom of West Tower, Concubine held the fake jade pendant and grinned at Defensive Formation... Luna took the opportunity to bite through the Tongue and sprayed the Saliva containing the Great Mage's life essence and blood on the jade pendant. The surface of Azure Jadeite cracked with Spider Web patterns, and the moonlight bursting out from inside was like a galaxy pouring down. The space around the Cradle suddenly twisted and deformed, and countless Magic Tome and Crystal Vessel shining with Xing Hui emerged from the void - this was the Dimensional Storage Space that she had spent a hundred years to build in her previous life! "Ugh...Wow!" Luna cried with rage. She recognized the Frostwolf ClanAlchemySpellKe Hen on the edge of the jade pendant, and the Magic Potion materials that should have belonged to her were replaced with InferiorCrystal. The baby's delicate Palm slapped on the floating Magic Tome, and the yellowed Yellowed Pages automatically turned to the chapter recording "Bloodline Exchange Forbidden Technique", and the Blood-red Runes outlined the scene of Leonard and Concubine holding a blood exchange ceremony. Aelia staggered and held onto the Gilded Bedpost, the moonlight Magic Pattern was spreading from the Neck to Luna: "He actually used the Holy Relic to make a substitute jade pendant for the bastard..." Ailya's White Nails, dyed with Dan Kou, dug deep into the Palm, Blood Pearl dripped onto the First Generation Family Head's Notebook, burning the Frostwolf Totem in the Forbidden Formation into Ashes. Qin Si hurriedly used the Healing Spell to stop the bleeding for Aelia, but found that his wife's Wrist Emerging with the same Frostwolf Tattoo pattern as the Concubine. The Defensive Formation suddenly made a cracking sound under the heavy load, and the Dome, which was painted with the legend of the Sacred Tree, began to drop Starshine Fragment. "Madam, the jade pendant is drawing the castle's Guardian Magic!" Qin Si tried to cover the floating jade pendant with the Moonstone Pendant, but was knocked to the ground by the backlash of magic. Luna's storage space was frantically absorbing the spiritual power accumulated by the Moonlight Star Pendant for three hundred years. The Xu Ying of the Great Mage was Emerging around the baby, and the Blood Moon Wheel was spinning in the Pupil of the Glass. Aelia tore open the gorgeous Skirt and wrapped the jade pendant with the blood-stained Lace cloth. The moonlight Blessing that remained during the birth suddenly awakened and condensed into the Guardian Sigil of the First Matriarch in her lower abdomen. Luna's storage space suddenly emitted a Roar, and a magic wand inlaid with Starfall Vine seeds fell from the void, and Zhang Jian was pointing at the Curse Mark on Aelia's abdomen. "I see..." Aelia held the wand tremblingly, and the memories that were tampered with by Leonard came back like a tide.
She finally remembered the night when her Eldest Daughter passed away, and how she had sealed the true Heir's Mark within the jade pendant using her own essence blood. At that moment, the mark was shimmering on Luna's forehead.
Yet, Luna was crying heart-wrenchingly.
She saw that the core of the Nine Star Convergence Formation, which should have been stored in the spatial storage, had transformed into a Blood Sacrifice vessel of the Frostwolf Clan.
The infant's frail limbs struggled violently in the swaddling cloth, and the newly grown moonlight-colored hair wrapped around the wand before her—its base engraved with the Frost Flower bearing Concubine Ailya's Birthday Rune, was devouring the Defensive Barrier she had set up in her past life.
"No... don't..." Luna mumbled brokenly, her tears melting the Frost Flower on the wand into venom.
Aelia hurried to wipe it away, but her fingertip was corroded, leaving behind charred marks.
Suddenly, the entire castle shook violently. From the direction of the West Tower came the roar of the Starfall Vine growing wildly. The Original Magic Power that Luna had reclaimed was destroying all of Leonard's blood exchange mediums through their Bloodline connection.
Qin Si wiped the infant's tear-streaked face with a cloth soaked in Moonlight Grass Juice and said, "The Young Miss must be having a nightmare..." Before she could finish her sentence, Luna suddenly grabbed her silver hair for leverage and sat up. Her tear-stained lips pressed heavily against the surface of the jade pendant.
At that moment, as the spatial storage closed with a snap, everyone saw a glimpse of Leonard's Last Night from Three Hundred Years Ago—the First Matriarch holding a crimson-eyed infant, stuffing the true Moonlight Star Pendant into a Time-Space Rift.
Aelia suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and from within the Blood Mist emerged a scene of Leonard and Concubine standing in the blood exchange array.
She finally understood her husband's true intention in demanding the jade pendant; those nights spent "repairing" the Defensive Formation in the West Tower were actually used to taint the Holy Relic with the Frostwolf Clan's tainted blood.
"How dare he... use my daughter..." The elegant hem of her skirt was torn by a Magic Pattern, and Aelia's ear bore a moonlight mark that suddenly extended into a Thorned Crown.
Luna's cries gradually weakened as the infant fell into a slumber, her little hand still tightly gripping a seed of Starfall Vine pulled from the spatial storage—this was indeed key to breaking the Forbidden Technique of blood exchange.
When Qin Si attempted to pry open Luna's fingers to adjust the swaddling cloth, she discovered that a wound on the infant's palm had been pierced by the seed and was oozing Silver-Blue Blood.
The Moonstone Pendant suddenly burst forth with Strong Light, casting an image on the Dome of Lucius casting spells while holding an infant like Luna.
Aelia gazed at Luna and Lucius’s sleeping baby face that resembled each other so closely, gently tucking the blood-stained jade pendant back into the Infant Swaddling.
The Liuli Lantern cast a swaying Halo beneath the Gilded Dome. Aelia clenched tightly onto her soft pillow embroidered with Star Patterns. Just as Qin Si brought a Silver Spoon to Luna's lips, a crashing sound echoed from the porch as Magic Silver Armor collided.
"Do you truly wish to sacrifice your marital bond for a mere lifeless object?" Leonard's fingertips were icy as the drawer of the dressing table flew open, and the indigo brocade box soared towards him.
As the lid sprang open, a blue light spilled into the chamber like Liu Ying, illuminating Aelia's wedding gown, where the unfaded patterns of harmony glimmered in Zhen Chan.
Luna bit down hard on her milk tooth, the minty maple syrup exploding coolly on her tongue—the crescent moon suspended in the air clearly bore the Ouroboros dark pattern she had once bathed in blood in her past life!
The small hand in the swaddling cloth broke out in cold sweat as she silently recited the first complete ancient curse since her crossing over; her newborn hair stirred without wind.
"Do you know this is a treasure passed down through twelve generations of the Albert family..." Aelia's defense abruptly halted.
The jade pendant suddenly broke free from its magical restraints, rolling into Luna's embroidered golden carp swaddle. Amidst the baby's giggles, as Yu Jue touched her heart, it transformed instantly into a blue butterfly mark.
The piercing pain made Luna cry out loud, memories from her past life flooding back like a burst dam: on the day the Magic Tower collapsed, it was this storage pendant that sealed the soul crystals of the Twelve Saints!
Through tear-blurred eyes, she caught sight of Leonard's sleeve dusted with violet powder—that was the favorite intoxicating spice of the West City Diva.
"Have you had enough of this ruckus?" The lord's fury shattered the crystal cradle, yet it suddenly halted upon reaching Aelia's thorn barrier.
Taking advantage of the moment, Qin Si scooped up Luna and darted behind the enamel screen. The infant sobbed as she clutched at the maid's emerald earrings, managing to pull out a fragment of a secret letter.
As Luna drifted off to sleep amidst Aelia's humming requiem, Mei Xin's blue butterfly felt a faint warmth.
At dawn, Qin Si's hand holding the dew flower tea suddenly trembled: "Third Young Master Lucius's griffin has just landed at the Black Tower!"
In her dreams, Luna saw the soul crystal floating in her storage space resonating with some distant curse mark. Deep within the castle cellar, a body frozen for fifteen years stirred its eyelashes—perfectly synchronized with Lucius’s returning hoofbeats.
