Chapter 278: 278

Xuan Yunlan’s breath stopped once more . She noticed that what Zong Shou was saying wasn’t that he was trying to provoke the Qingyin School, nor was he trying to pull out the strength of the sect behind him .

He directly said a sentence-its just battle, why should I fear it!

There was no explanation, no avoiding, no beating around the bush . It was just a short sentence, but it was filled with confidence!

He had no fear, fighting spirit charging into the sky!

Slightly shocked, Xuan Yunlan kept all her other thoughts .

Although she had received such humiliation today, every step that Zong Shou did was reasonable . Even being poured a basin of water by the Monster King was because she used the demon charming technique and she deserved it .

Although it was to take revenge, his methods were indeed wise . Even a sect as strong as the Qingyin Sect and Common people path couldn’t find anything wrong about him, not a single bit .

She could only bear with the anger, tightly biting her lips . Looking at the teasing gaze of the teen, the anger in her chest nearly made her spit blood . She wanted to go all out and fight to the death with Zong Shou!

In the end, the heart that she trained up within the brothel was slowly coming to use . Rationality slowly took the upper hand as she bowed once more, her tone going soft, “The ruler is so amusing . Although Qingyin Sect is seen as a demon sect, we aren’t unreasonable . How can we go to battle for such a small matter? Become enemies with Gantian mountain? Now that the ruler has vented his anger, can you remove the lockdown order on Shili Ling Xiangding?”

Zong Shou was delighted when he heard that, retracting his fighting intent and slightly shaking his head, “That order is a policy of our city and affects the big picture . What does it have to do with our grievances? Those girls are also people of Gantian City . I naturally have a way to deal with them . You all don’t need to care . If you came because of that matter then there is no need to say anymore and waste my time…”

At this moment, not only was Zhang Xin furious, but even Xuan Yunlan’s face twitched . So they came for nothing? They got humiliated and in the end, got nothing from him?

Zong Shou was originally planning to directly wave his sleeves and leave . He had plans for the Shili Ling Xiangding matter and naturally would give those brothel girls a way out, without needing them to say anything to him .

However, just as he got up, he suddenly had an idea .

Thinking about that night the day ago, the zither sound from the building, he stopped in his tracks . He smiled towards Xuan Yunlan, “Your zither skills are not bad, so do you know your Qingyin School’s soul calming spiritual tune?”

Xuan Yunlan was startled, slightly nodding her head . Who knew why Zong Shou would suddenly speak about this matter .

In the next moment, Zong Shou smiled, “So you are the core disciple of Qingyin School . I’ve been disrespectful . How about this? If you want to save those pitiful people, play that tune for me for 2 hours every day for 3 months . What does Miss Yunlan say?”

Xuan Yunlan was at a loss . After she thought for a moment, she nodded . The soul calming spiritual tune was a secret technique of the Qingyin School . Each time she played it, it would consume a portion of her soul power .

But if she could perfectly solve this while matter then she wouldn’t care .

Disciples of the common people path all came from tragic pasts, so the way they did things would normally be different from others .

Only the Qingyin School was different . Due to the cultivation method, they were more calm and peaceful . Xuan Yunlan, due to her birth, really pitied the girls at Shili Ling Xiangding . If she could let these people have a new road to walk, she was willing to pay any price and do anything .

Zong Shou silently shook his head . Looking at her expression, he suddenly felt ashamed .

Did this girl think that she was a saint reborn? She didn’t bargain and agreed right away . One could see that she was extremely sincere .

Compared to her, he was a total scum, making him feel guilty and ashamed of himself .

In the last life, he hated and was annoyed with these people who thought they were pure and morally upright . Those that were kind and pitied people all around . It wasn’t that they made him angry, just that he felt that it pierced the eye . Like something living in the dark for long, subconsciously being afraid of the light .

He gave out a laugh which had uncertain meaning . He didn’t speak anymore, using his finger to do a hook to her before walking out of the side hall .

He still returned to the cultivation hall but after he entered the directly closed the gate . He locked her out, the meaning was obvious that he wanted her to play the zither outside .

Hanyan Palace had many instruments . Not long later Chuxue found a decent quality peptachord and placed it in front of her before smiling and sitting beside her .

Xuan Yunlan was furious and frustrated, her heart was extremely bitter . What did she do to attract such a demon?

Taking in tens of deep breaths to suppress her emotions . Her hands pressed on the instrument . When the 1st note was played out, it was clean and crisp, tugging at one’s heartstrings .

A series of notes were like a stream, naturally flowing into the hearts of everyone around .

Chuxue was originally planning on monitoring her but along with the music continuing, her eyes slowly went off into a daze . She only felt that there was nothing as beautiful as this in the world .

Even her soul ocean which had not moved for long also slowly expanded .

This soul calming spiritual tune even had the effect of helping one cultivate soul power!

However, that music lasted for just a short moment before a cold scoff came out from the room . A line of words formed in mid-air, “It’s so bad, impulsive! This is your secret technique? If it only has such little charming ability it is disappointing!”

Xuan Yunlan was startled, her fingers going chaotic and the tip instantly cut by the instrument string . Then, she looked at the gate in anger and shock .

She could allow this Zong Shou to humiliate her in exchange for the lives of the ten thousand girls, but she couldn’t accept him insulting her sect!

Just as she was about to retort, another line of words formed up, “I heard that the tune focused on the word calming . You are not calm, so how can you play out a nice tune? You entered the Quiet Cloud Pavilion to experience life and bathe yourself in humanity . The Confucians have a phrase that is said well . When someone goes from heaven to earth, first his heart will be hurt, then his bones and muscles will be tired, his body hungry, and he will be lost . Thus, he will learn how to bear with it and gain many benefits . All the things you experienced today, isn’t it just a test from the heavens? If you can’t even bear such small things, why are you still cultivating and practicing?”

That Xuan Yunlan was laughing coldly at the start . She had only agreed to play 2 hours of this tune . She didn’t promise what effect her tune had . What obligation did she have such that she had to be calm?

The following few sentences were like a giant bell reverberating through her ears, shaking her soul such that waves broke out . Her mood was long unable to calm down . She suddenly had a sort of total comprehension .

That’s right . She came to this Quiet Cloud Pavilion as a musician to experience the world, to see how the world changes and how people change .

Then the things she went through today were a test of her heart . Thinking about it, what difference was this young ruler from the many guests that frequent Quiet Cloud Pavilion?

Weren’t their people who were unhappy about her and found trouble with her everyday? Even people who had nefarious intentions .

Then why should she bother so much?

Thinking about it this way, her heart instantly calmed down . All of a sudden she seemed to have comprehended a lot . Not only not being angry, but the corner of her lips also broke out into a smile .

Her fingers danced on the instrument, melodies jumping out once more, and as expected it was different from before .

It should have consumed soul power but not only did it not, but it also showed signs of increasing . Her mind seemed to have dust that was swept away, becoming clearer and more transparent .

The current Zong Shou was behind their gate, his mouth opened wide, unable to close .

His whole bunch of random words was just to bluff her to willingly help him play this soul calming spiritual tune .

This silly girl believed him and not only so, but she also properly played the tune . Her heart realm also seemed to have some improvement because of his words .

Zong Shou didn’t know if he should regret or should feel fortunate . Anyways this Xuan Yunlan could be said to be a rare talent .

He smiled, lazy to bother about her . That illusionary heart mirror floating in front of him as he entered meditation once more .

This secret legacy soul calming spiritual tune of Qingyin Sect was exceptional . Its recovery of the soul was no less than some rare pills .

The pain in his brain had now totally faded . Zong Shou observed his soul ocean for a while before leaving it alone .

Then, he activated the illusionary heart mirror, but this time he didn’t let his heart enter a peaceful realm . Instead, it was a battlefield where killing intent surged . The first to appear was a strong foe from his last life .

The mirror was a grade 7 spiritual artifact which was why it could only replicate grade 7 experts-ascended ancestors and day wandering spirit masters .

Zong Shou set his cultivation as a night wandering realm spirit master, having no true qi .

Then, within this illusion, sword energy charged about and spiritual energy was surging maniacally .

What Zong Shou used now were spiritual techniques . At most he had the help of that one energy sword to face up against the attacks of the day wandering spirit masters such that he won’t die too quickly .

…although his martial path was strong, in this life his best achievements was soul power . However, he had no experience in spell battles .

As he used the illusion to practice such fighting methods, it didn’t have the time dilation of the game of the last life, but it was still the fastest way to make up for this shortcoming of his .

As for directly choosing a day wandering spirit master, Zong Shou firmly believed that under the strong pressure of a tough opponent, he would be able to swiftly grow .
