Chapter 278 New Year's Grand Ceremony, King's Will_2

Su'angua turned his head and watched the sun ascend to mid-sky, with not a cloud in the boundless expanse. Then, his gaze followed the sunlight downward to the pyramid below, illuminating a multitude of tiny figures. Tens of thousands of faces looked up in excitement and anticipation, their eyes also on him. Within the heart of Tarasco's king, a sense of fate dawned. He suddenly recalled a fleeting thought from long ago, while watching the "House of Wind" sacrificial rite.

"So this is the famous Mexica sacrifice ceremony known throughout the world! And I am witnessing the grand spectacle of the New Year's great ceremony in this manner..."

Suppressing the sorrow in his heart, Su'angua surveyed the queue of sacrifices for a long time. He saw several of his sons, a few brothers of the royal family, but not the small figure of Shatini. The Tarasco king nodded silently, finally climbed the last step, and for the first time, truly faced the Mexica king.
