Chapter 438: 438
Hearing Ye Futian's reply, Long Ling'er looked at him and said, "I won't let you leave . "

"Ling'er, cultivate well with Senior Feng . Don't keep thinking about the past," Ye Futian said, smiling . "I'm going . " With that, he walked out .
"Brother Futian," Ling'er called .
Ye Futian stopped . Turning around, he said, "Hey, don't you know that you're annoying?"
Long Ling'er's eyes were red . Her tears were about to fall out and Ye Futian's heart softened . This girl was too good at acting .
"You didn't forget what you promised right?" the little girl said pitifully .
Ye Futian was confused, but he quickly remembered what Long Ling'er was talking about . He'd promised to spend New Year with her .
"I remember . " Ye Futian nodded .
"Then you must do it," Long Ling'er said .
"Okay . " Ye Futian chuckled and started walking out .
After he left, Long Ling'er glared at Long Mu . "Happy now?"
"Ling'er," Long Mu said . "You've messed around enough . How well do you know him?"
"I don't care . " Long Ling'er glared .

"You are Uncle's only daughter . You're the little prince of the Long Family," Long Mu continued . "Even without me, you should know the recent relationship between Uncle and the family . Now, you casually gave the Celestial Pavilion to a stranger . What would the family think?"
"I'm not eating anymore . " Long Ling'er turned and left .
Looking at her back, Long Mu felt helpless . "Uncle Yang," he said . "Take Ling'er back . "
"Yes, Young Master Mu . " Yang Xing nodded and followed out . He chuckled wryly . Long Mu was straightforward . He loved Long Ling'er, but their personalities were too different . It was hard to get together . He was more suited for cultivation .
When Ye Futian returned, Loulan Xue, Yu Sheng, and Shen Yu had gone out . Only Ye Wuchen was cultivating . They didn't return until evening and had come with many things . Yu Sheng carried them .
"What's that?" Ye Futian asked curiously .
"Some spiritual herbs . We went to Qingyun Street," Loulan Xue answered . "That's the biggest trade market in this area . I bought some spiritual herbs to make medicated baths . The martial arts cultivators in Divine Sky City often train themselves like this . I came across a way to make medicated baths . You, Yu Sheng, and Ye Wuchen can use it . "
"You've worked hard . Be generous for yourself too . " Ye Futian nodded . People in the outside world usually used resources for cultivation . If possible, they would definitely do so too and raise their cultivation as much as possible .
"Yes . " Loulan Xue nodded . "I'll go do it with Shen Yu . " With that, they left .
Ye Futian looked at Loulan Xue's back . Back when Loulan Xue had gone to the Cottage voluntarily to become his servant, he hadn't had this thought . He thought that Loulan Xue couldn't do well because she was a princess . But after his second senior sister trained her, Loulan Xue gradually became accustomed to being a servant and accepted it . Even Ye Futian had gotten used to it .
"We aren't going to the Long Family anymore?" Yu Sheng asked .
"No . " Ye Futian shook his head . "I don't think the Celestial Pavilion is a long-term plan either . We must find other ways to earn spiritual stones . "

Long Ling'er had given them the Celestial Pavilion . She was the princess of the Long Family, but she was still too young . She couldn't decide anything . Ye Futian had felt some things from Long Mu's attitude . Thus, the Celestial Pavilion bought with the Long Family's resources wasn't very stable . It was better to rely on himself .
"This trip cost a lot," Yu Sheng said . With their cultivation plane, ordinary methods couldn't support their consumption of resources .
"Yeah, let me think . " Ye Futian nodded . They were poor . He felt that their cultivation planes were too low . They weren't enough for a rich city like Divine Sky City . Of course, they could join the Top Three Schools or another force and they would have enough resources . However, Ye Futian didn't want that anymore .
A while later, Loulan Xue and Shen Yu walked over . Loulan Xue said, "It's done . Want to try?"
"Yes . " Ye Futian nodded and followed Loulan Xue to a bath inside the house .
The bathwater was bubbling now . There were fiery-red stones inside, making the entire bath look like lava . The heat was scary . The spiritual herbs were already inside .
"You can go," Ye Futian said .
"I'm not sure I put in the right amount . You can try it . I'll wait here," Loulan Xue said .
"Uh…" Ye Futian blinked at her . Was this proper?
Loulan Xue looked up at him . Her cool silver eyes showed no disturbances and said softly, "Isn't this what a servant should do?"
Ye Futian wanted to facepalm, but it seemed to make sense . But it still felt weird?
Seeing that Loulan Xue was still staring at him and didn't move, Ye Futian had a weird expression . Then he took off his white robe and shirt, revealing a lean body . Half naked, he walked towards the bath while muttering, "Taking advantage of me . "

Hiss… The moment Ye Futian entered the pool, he felt frightening power dig into his body . He didn't think the high temperature would affect him, but he'd clearly underestimated the medicated bath . Instantly, streams of power dug into his limbs . His body seemed to boil and his blood flew through his body .
"Don't resist . Let your body take it and let the power meld into you . It won't do much the first time, but apparently, long-term use will greatly improve your physical body . It's very beneficial," Loulan Xue said . "How do you feel?"
"What did you add…" Ye Futian mumbled . "But it feels good . " With that, he closed his eyes and endured it quietly . The frightening power was wildly melding into his flesh, digging into his body, and challenging his every cell .
The pain kept lowering . After a long while, he didn't feel anything anymore . He stood up and walked out of the bath . Loulan Xue walked up and put a prepared bathrobe on Ye Futian . Right now, her silver eyes sparkled .
"You can go now," Ye Futian said .
"Okay . " Loulan Xue nodded and left .
A while later, Ye Futian returned to the courtyard and said, "Yu Sheng, you go try . It will help you . "
"Okay . " Yu Sheng nodded .
Ye Futian sat down in the courtyard . The ring on his finger lit up and a guqin appeared before him . He played the instrument with his eyes closed . In his mind, Ukiyo rang out . Every music note was filled with magic .
Ukiyo was one of the world's top ten musical pieces . Each one was a masterpiece .
Ukiyo's artistic conception was the minds of the two emperors . But now, Ye Futian's mind was different .
Ye Futian gradually forgot about Ukiyo . At that moment, he seemed to be immersed in his own world . Afterward, he strummed the instrument strings and a graceful melody flowed out . The sky darkened and moonlight shone down . The moment the music rang out, the courtyard became ethereal and clean . One's heart seemed to be caught in that moment .
Shen Yu stood in the near distance . When the music sounded, she felt her heartstrings twang . Her pure eyes looked quietly at the figure . His music was so ethereal . It had a special attraction that made people listen to it . The graceful music was steady and beautiful, instantly taking people into a unique artistic conception . From the music, one could feel a youth leaving home to travel far . He chased after his goal and dream, facing everything optimistically .
He was kind and low-key . He'd put away his brightness and was unbothered by many things . However, the world never followed one's wishes . There would always be people invading his world . Those people were arrogant . He wanted to overlook them but couldn't avoid them . Some things would always follow him .
Identity, status, and power were like mountains that could crush one's spine . Even a simple relationship would still be affected .
The music went from calm to wild as if his mind had been affected by the outside world . But after the wildness, it became serene again . However, this serenity had a lonely arrogance to it . The music became cold and arrogant . Gradually, it became hurried .
Ye Futian's fingers sped up and crazily strummed the instrument strings . The music became frenzied . There was an invisible aura around him . He was arrogant and able to destroy everything in the world .
The world's Spiritual Qi seemed to be affected too . It went wild as well and beams of purple light shone like lightning . The bolts streaked across the courtyard . The music accelerated and lightning cracked . The entire world became chaotic as if there was an electric storm that wanted to destroy everything .
In the courtyard, Shen Yu watched this in shock . She'd felt the music change bit by bit from peace to chaos . Even now, Ye Futian had a frightening aura . It was arrogant and cold . His fingers strumming the instrument strings were still elegant, but he seemed to have changed .
He didn't care for the world and dared to compete with the lords .
Shen Yu plugged her ears, but it was useless . A scene of the world ending appeared in her mind . Lightning cracked, almost destroying her mind . Yet this was only the music's side effects . Ye Futian wasn't attacking anyone . The electric windstorm seemed to become complete around Ye Futian . This was a frightening musical sorcery that could turn into spiritual attacks .
Finally, the music stopped . The scary scene disappeared .
Ye Futian quieted down and he opened his eyes slowly . He smiled . Ukiyo told him that if he added spiritual energy into the music, he could control the Spiritual Qi in the air . Now, using Ukiyo as the base, he'd composed his own musical piece according to his own mind and experiences . It was a music sorcery spell and was very powerful .
This was a great start .
