(Qin Zetian's POV)

Instead of sitting with everyone, I excused myself and asked my father for his permission to enter his library. I believe he has so many books there that talks about literature. My elder brother Lushan studied under my father's guidance when he was young and he grew up intrinsically knowledgeable about politics, economics and history. I believe he also knew about the existence of the seven continents.

I sat and brought some of the food that I've prepared earlier. Well who said I can't eat in this room? I chuckled and munched on the fried spicy prawns with garlic rice below. Then I flipped on the books that my father has on his table. These involves matters of the court.

I stood and walk towards the shelves on the stone wall. I observed patterns and odd lines from the inner corners of the room. I counted the books and find it odd that every line has a pattern of arrangement. I opened every first book on the shelves, I memorized the letters and start counting again. Then I ended up picking and odd journal which matches the letters on the books.

When I grabbed the journal, the walls started to vibrate oddly. The light in my father's office eventually dimmed and fire ignited the torches that I thought was meant for a luxurious decoration. I smiled, like every chamber there should be a secret pa.s.sage. You know it's not quite shocking to see such event when the books and the movies in the modern world shows the same thing.

I saw another room which is brightly illuminated. The objects were oddly made of gold and bronze. Dust was nowhere to be seen, it seems like someone cleans the place thoroughly. I chuckled and turn around. Trying to find something that I'm looking for. But it is as if there's a magic cover, blocking everything visible to become invisible. I closed my eyes and used my senses to feel. If there is pressure there will be molecules suspended in the air.

If I can find a trace of energy, that means something exist beyond my capabilities. Where oh where could it be? North? East? West? South?

If I entered from the east that means I am the sun, if I fall on the west I'll be the moon. And to follow the north their will be light and to head south leads to war.

So South it is.

I opened my eyes and walk towards the south.

I touched the wall and the ceiling illuminated the room brightly. The walls dismantled themselves, from the top I saw the shelves. Seven hidden books, from the seven continents. The existing bloodline of the legends are to appear. The duty of the guards have been fulfilled, then the dragon has awakened from his deep slumber.

All of a sudden, warm breath fanned behind me.

I slowly turned.

And saw the mighty dragon.

"Is this for real?"

I clasped my chest and tried to steady my breath.

"Human" the dragon said
