Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess Chapter 251: 251: Buried Palace in the Sand

Sahara Desert. Underground.

After Yue Xuexia fell in the desert after stepping in a quicksand, she slid through the sand and kept falling downwards without any route. The feeling of a never ending slide ca to the mind of Yue Xuexia who was screaming as she slid down. She couldn't recognize where she was and there was all the sand from all angles surrounding him. Yue Xuexia can only wait until she stops sliding.

At the end of the slide is a hole that throws him in an open space. Yue Xuexia fell on her butt and hit the ground which is no longer pure sand. There is a flat surface in the space she had fallen into.

Ouch!

"Hm?"

Yue Xuexia touched her bottom and noticed that her fall wasn't as painful as she expected even after falling from the height. She looked up and saw the hole she fell from up the ceiling a hundred ters away from her. Before she could understand the reason it wasn't painful, she felt sothing moving through the crevices of her finger.

When she looked down, Yue Xuexia noticed that the sand under her was soft and smooth. Only then did she understand the reason why she wasn't hurt by her fall. The sand hill under her saved her.

Recalling the sign-in reward, she got it when they checked-in at the Burj Al Arab Hotel.

Yue Xuexia mumbles, "Is this what it ans by the Affinity of Sand Elents?" The system was offline as Shen Jueyang, the dium for it, was not near her. So, there is no one to explain the effects of this affinity.

That's right, Yue Xuexia's reward for Burj Al Arab Hotel's signing was 'Sand Elents Affinity'. After getting that reward she tried to control a few pieces of sand Tan Bingyu had prepared for her. Except for moving the sand under her control for a bit, she lost interest as she couldn't use it for combat at all.

Now, it seems that the reason she didn't see the usefulness of that affinity was because there is little too much sand to control in the hotel. In the desert this affinity was the most powerful. It is just that it also has a bit of a disadvantage. It attracts beasts and monsters that live in the desert.

As if re-enacting the disadvantages, Yue Xuexia suddenly heard the sound of hissing as well the sound of rattling all around her.

Hiss~

Rattles~

Feeling the danger around her, Yue Xuexia imdiately summoned her Divine-grade black fan and swung it in the direction with the loudest sound. Her swings created so wind that pushed whatever was approaching her away.

Bringing out a flashlight from her inventory, he illuminated the area and saw thousands of rattlesnakes surrounding her. If one has ophidiophobia, they would have fainted upon the sight of these rattlesnakes.

Yue Xuexia mumbles, "Is this for real?"

Shaa~

The first wave of rattle snakes jump towards Yue Xuexia. She swings her fan to create so wind blades cutting these attacking rattle snakes into mince. However, these snakes seem to be fearless of death. Yue Xuexia keeps waving her fan however the number of these rattlesnakes seems to be endless as well.

Yue Xuexia mumbles, "How annoying~ If I rember correctly these guys are afraid of noise on the ground."

She controlled the sand under her to spread until her feet touched the stone floor. Putting enough strength on her foot, Yue Xuexia stomps the ground until it shakes. Vibration and noises spread from the ground itself making the area shake as if there was an earthquake.

As expected, these rattlesnakes were frozen by the noise and vibration on the ground and once the land stopped shaking they all fled away. Yue Xuexia watches these snakes disappear as if they didn't exist in the first place. Only after that did Yue Xuexia have the ti to look around where she was.

Moving around the flashlight in her hand, Yue Xuexia saw towering pillars that supported the ceiling above her head. The ceiling was gold in color and no one knows if it was truly made of gold or just paint. However, based on the architecture and design of the place she is in, it wasn't hard to see what kind of place this is.

Yue Xuexia mumbles, "Is this an Ancient Palace? Why would there be a palace in the Sahara Desert? Didn't they say that this desert is not completely discovered yet?"

She kept walking around and saw so unbroken wall with murals on it. The ancient pictures weren't that good however it shows a bit of the history of this palace. The murals on the walls show a few people looking like those from the sand country kneeling before a huge altar.

The expressions of these people varied. From sadness to happiness, happiness to anger, and anger to reverence. The altar was too large compared to the people kneeling around it and from a painting of sky a huge snake with wings was descending to the huge altar.

Yue Xuexia mumbles, "What is this? A Snake God?"

She started taking videos as she wanted to get so proof about this mural. This is the history of the country of sand and the people of this land will definitely be interested in this discovery of hers.

The snake god in the murals was completely kind. He would sotis eat his believers and sotis give scales made of gold. It also would give away his tears as sothing to heal it. There is also his feather. Having it allowed even an ordinary person to fly for a short period of ti.

"Now I am a bit interested," Yue Xuexia mumbles.

On the other hand, the Country of Sand's Imperial Palace...

The crown prince, Prince Rasheed, received a report about Taiyang's sudden return to his hotel. However, what followed after his return wasn't good news, but instead sothing that can put even the royal family in danger.

"Reporting to His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"We got the news that one of the Empress's companions nad Taiyang had returned to the hotel asking for a guide in the Sahara Desert."

"He requested for the most powerful and knowledgeable guide."

"It seems that sothing had happened to their group."

Crown Prince Rasheed thought for a mont and gestured to Lord Junna to co over.

"Junna. Send soone to report to father that sothing had happened to our important guest from Huaxia, the Empress. Also gather all the seekers under our command."

"Your highness, do you plan to go yourself?" Lord Junna asked his lord.

It can be said that in the Imperial Palace, there is only one person that is born with love from this country and is said to be the son of the sun and sand. A red eclipse happened when the crown prince was born and the imperial family deems it as proof of their god's blessing.

As Crown Prince Rasheed grew up, the blessing of the sun and sand didn't fail him. He has the strongest affinity for sand in their country. He has a special physique that prevents him from getting lost no matter where he is in the desert and he can always find an oasis as long as we wanted it found. He is indeed the Son of the Desert.

"Yes. Maybe this ti we will be lucky and find the ancient palace that I've been looking for my whole life," said Crown Prince Rasheed. "Prepare to leave as soon as possible!"

"Yes, Your highness!"

At the Burj Al Arab Hotel, as soon as Taiyang arrived he shouted for the word guide in english. He couldn't speak the language of this country but this hotel had translators who sent foreign custors to converse with the staff. When the hotel executive suddenly arrives, Taiyang grabs him.

He said, "Give a guide. Soone who knows the Sahara Desert well. Yue Xuexia had fallen in so quicksand and disappeared. The sand made her fall in. I need soone to help us find her!"

The translator helped him convey his words to the hotel executive.

"Aetini dlylaan. shakhs yaerif alsahra' alkubraa jydan. saqatat yuy shiwishia fi baed alrimal almutaharikat waikhtafat. tasababat alrimal fi suqutiha. 'ahtaj 'iilaa shakhs limusaeadatina fi aleuthur ealayha!"

A frown appeared on the hotel executive and nodded at Taiyang and said to the translator, "'Akhbaruh 'anana sanabdhul qusaraa juhdina lidaem fariqihi. sa'astadei alan jamie almurshidin alnukhbat 'iilaa alsahra' limurafaqatih fi aleawdati. sayusaeidun almajmueat fi aleuthur ealaa athar alansat ywy shyw shia."

The translator said, "Don't worry. They said that the hotel will summon all elite guides and accompany you to the Sahara Desert. They will help you find Miss Yue."

Taiyang said, "Please hurry. I left my other two companions in the desert. Though I don't worry about their safety, they also might disappear in the desert like Yue Xuexia. I hope you can bring the guides as soon as possible so I can leave with them for the Sahara Desert."

The translator said, "Even summoning those elite guides will take ti. A few hours would be the fastest."

"There is no need. I will lead you to the desert myself. There is no better guide than I do."

All of the sudden, soone butt in their conversation. This person spoke in fluent English even though he looked like soone from this country. Taiyang scrutinized the man leading the group that didn't look ordinary. Most of them didn't look like ordinary people. Even though he can't feel much qi to these people, he can feel another energy coming from them. It seems to be close to an elental energy.

Taiyang asked, "Who the hell are you?"

All of a sudden, every countryman in this country had to kneel before this man, including the translator talking to Taiyang just now.

"We greet the son of dessert and our beloved future king. Your highness, Crown Prince Rasheed."
