Chapter 654: Opening the Altar

"Sigh..."

The river was broad and boundless.

Atop the Heavenly Altar, Liang Qu lay back and looked up at the sky, exhaling a mouthful of warm breath that scattered into mist against the river wind until it dissipated completely.

The sky was overcast, with not a trace of sunlight visible.

The clouds had dispersed not long before, but as the ship sailed northward, it entered a new body of water and was once again enveloped.

"Mr. Lan, it looks like it's going to snow today, shall we continue sunbathing?"

"Bask." Lan Jicai sat on a small stool, slicing open half a pomegranate and stuffing a handful of rubies into his mouth, he muttered, "When it starts to snow, that's when you come down."

Before the half pomegranate was finished, a light snow began to fall.

Liang Qu turned over and dropped down, brushing the ice crystals off his shoulder: "Mr. Lan, why sunbathe on the Heavenly Altar? Is there any benefit?"
