At that moment, the voice of the music troupe leader came from below, saying, "Distinguished guests, we are ready."
Ma Xueqing, Gu Yan'er, and the others stopped talking and turned their attention to the stage.
Servants closed the palace doors, and the light inside the palace dimmed. Then, a light began to shine from the stage.
Suddenly, an explosion like thunder from the outside, as if someone's fist had burst the air, creating a thunderous sound.
"It's that Fan Kongliu monk showing off his golden body again!" everyone frowned in irritation.
Gu Yan'er instructed her servants, "Hang a few Silence Talismans; don't let that monk disturb our music appreciation."
Several servants hurriedly went into the courtyard of Dawn Palace, raised the Silence Talismans, which soared and silently burned, preventing any outside noise from entering Dawn Palace.
Inside the palace, music and singing began, and the dancers entered the stage gracefully, each making their own appearance.
