At the end of the sea of clouds, an orange-red Great Sun revealed a corner of itself, its golden light dazzling.
White mist clung to the ground.
Liang Qu's robe hem snapped in the wind. He stood like a reef in the sea, its crown ringed with snow.

It truly made one worry that Ta Ta Kai might one day pee somewhere it should not and get beaten up for it.
