The music stopped . Ye Wuchen, Yu Sheng and Loulan Xue all came to Ye Futian's court . Shen Yu stood beside him blankly .

Ye Futian turned around and asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?"
"What happened to you?" Yu Sheng asked . Ye Futian often told him that music could convey one's spirit . He had heard Ye Futian's music many times, so he became quite sensitive to music artistic conception . He was not talented enough, but the artistic conception in the music that Ye Futian had just played was too strong to ignore . After leaving the Eastern Barren Territory, it had been a long time since Ye Futian last showed such a spirit in his music . The end of his music was very sharp and powerful .
Yu Sheng had never heard this piece before .
"I just need to vent . Is there any problem?" Ye Futian stared at Yu Sheng, wondering how he saw through it . What had happened these days made him a little upset and depressed .
"I can't even ask?" Yu Sheng grumbled .
"What's the name of the music you just played?" asked Ye Wuchen . He could feel the marvelous artistic conception . From the plain beginning to a heated climax, the music made him feel like there was a man standing under the sky and daring to break all the chains .
"I haven't named it yet . It's an improvisation . Have any suggestions about the name?" said Ye Futian .
Ye Wuchen, Yu Sheng and Loulan Xue were speechless . It was an improvisation? It was perfect!
"How about Elegance?" suggested Loulan Xue . This word fit the artistic conception very well .
"Elegance?" Ye Futian murmured and nodded immediately . "Good! Elegance is the name now . "
"It's late now . Go have a rest," said Ye Futian . The four nodded . Ye Wuchen and Yu Sheng walked toward the bamboo woods in the backyard . They needed to cultivate . It was too early for them to sleep . Loulan Xue went toward another direction . Shen Yu didn't move . Staring at Ye Futian, she had no idea where she was going to live . Though having worked in the Celestial Pavilion before, she was not qualified to live in it .
"Why are you looking at me? You want to spend the long night with me?" Ye Futian quipped .

Shen Yu blushed and ran away immediately .
Seeing Shen Yu running away, Ye Futian was speechless . Was he so scary? Maybe she was just too excited .
…
The Divine Prefecture Calendar's 10004th year came to its last day . The Divine Sky City was more bustling and lively than before . As the transaction center of the city, Qingyun Street was the busiest, especially on such an important day . People and their demon beasts crowed here . The locals were totally used to this scene . Even small kids weren't scared .
A line of people walked along the street . "What a lively place!" the youth in white exclaimed . It was Ye Futian's group . These days, they had been cultivating in the Celestial Pavilion . The last day of the year was a good chance to take a breath of air .
"Here is the transaction center of the eastern Barren State . Of course, it'll be so lively . Look at that castle!" Loulan Xue pointed at a place in the distance . A great dark castle overshadowed this vast place .
"It's the Demon Castle . You could buy all kinds of powerful demon beasts there . The trainers could make a great profit from it . They have demon beasts in all levels," Loulan Xue introduced softly . She had been there before and was shocked by the scene .
In the Divine Sky City, money could get you everything .
"Demon beasts are so profitable? We happen to have one here," Ye Futian murmured and looked behind . The Black Wind Eagle winced, looking at Ye Futian with its big eyes . Master, this joke is not funny!
"Maybe no one would like to buy it . " Pondering for a while, Ye Futian chose to give up . The Black Wind Eagle was relieved and kept flapping its wings . How could he think about selling me, such an excellent demon beast? It's inhumane .
"Loulan, you could go buy yourself some nice ritual implementing clothes," Ye Futian suggested . There were many stores selling ritual implementing clothes on either side of the street . Many people came here to select gifts for their families or descendants .
The end of the year here was busier and more luxurious than Eastern Barren Territory's . The resources here were much more bountiful too .

"I'm good . " Loulan Xue shook her head slightly .
"Shen Yu, go with her," Ye Futian continued . "You could pick something for yourself too . "
"Okay . " Shen Yu nodded and dragged Loulan Xue away . After a while, the two came back with some bags in hands .
Ye Futian couldn't help thinking how wonderful it could be if Hua Jieyu was here too . He had to work harder now . In the future, this area would only be more prosperous . After Hue Jieyu came, he would definitely bring her here to feel the atmosphere . It had been a year since they were separated . Was she alright?
"What a kind of place is that?" Walking on the street, Ye Futain was attracted by music from a quaint manor in the corner .
"It's a famous music workshop where music sorcerers trade guqins or music spells," Shen Yu explained .
Hearing this, Ye Futain suddenly came up with an idea . These days he had been considering how to make money to support his cultivation . This music workshop might be a good place to start .
"Let's go . " Thinking of this, Ye Futian walked straight toward the workshop .
The workshop was clean and elegant . There were young beauties welcoming them . Knowing that they wanted to trade music, these beauties led them to a quaint pavilion where a guqin was placed .
"Go ahead . " An old man sat in the front . Since they wanted to trade music, the host needed to know the music's level . If the level was too low, the music couldn't be traded here . It was not a good idea to show the music score directly since someone might plagiarize . The best way was to play it on the spot .
Sitting in front of the guqin, Ye Futian began to play his music, Elegance . As the music was played, the old man gradually sensed the artistic conception . He listened to the music seriously .
From peace to mania, there was a kind of straightforwardness . No more inhibitions were there . The impetuous fire of youth burned and even howled . Endless thunder intent seemly melted into the music . The senior closed his eyes and felt it silently . He could feel that even the airflow was controlled by the music . The artistic conception was very strong .

The music stopped . The old man opened his eyes and looked at Ye Futian in a totally different way . He smiled and asked, "Marvelous! What is the name? Who is the composer?"
"Its name is Elegance . It's my opus," Ye Futian raised his head and answered .
The old man was shocked and stared at Ye Futian . "You are not joking, right?"
Creating a song was not something new since many experienced musical sorcerers could do that either . But in Ye Futian's age, it was not an easy thing to create a song which contained such an artistic conception .
"It's not a joke," said Ye Futian .
"There are two methods . I can arrange the auction right now or you could sell it to me directly . What's your choice?" the senior asked .
"Auction!" Ye Futian didn't hesitate . Only through auction could he know the real value of this song .
"Good, but this time, the workshop will join the auction too . " The senior smiled and ordered, "Tell the others that there will be a potential hit song for auction very soon . "
"Yes . " The two maids beside them nodded and went to spread the news .
"Sir, you need to play it again later for the auction . Furthermore, if the auction is successful, the workshop will take one-twentieth of the profit . If the bid is ritual implements, it'll be a price based on the ritual implement . "
"Deal!" Ye Futian nodded and asked, "Can I conceal my identity when playing?"
"No problem!" The old man nodded with a smile .
…
There was a tower in the workshop just for auctions . People in the workshop gathered here and the tower suddenly became lively . All floors and rooms were occupied . This music workshop was a very famous place in the Divine Sky City . Many well-known music scores and spells all came from here . Therefore, many music lovers and sorcerers often gathered here .
It was the last day of the year . Hearing that there was a potential hit song to be auctioned, people in the workshop all gathered in the tower . If a song was said to have potential, there must be something special about it .
At this moment, an old man's figure appeared on the stage . He waved and said, "Let's get down to the business . Enjoy yourselves!" He walked away and then the stage burst with bright lights . Some spells helped mask the stage . On the stage, a faint figure loomed . The figure touched the guqin lightly and began to play .
Hearing the music, the whole tower fell silent . From the ethereal music and its extremely strong artistic conception, it could be inferred that the music player was very well-versed in music .
As the music was played, people became engrossed in its artistic conception and the player's spiritual movement . Gradually, thunder was heard and lightning was seen . The artistic conception became more and more sublimated . Finally, the music stopped . For a while, the tower remained silent .
"What a masterpiece!" somebody exclaimed .
"It's marvelous indeed!"
"This spell is in such a low level . I don't see anything special," at this moment, doubts were heard from a room on the third floor .
A line of figure sat there . People outside couldn't see them . The speaker was a young man with an outstanding temperament and some powerful men guarding beside him .
He was from the Dragon Clan . He knew very little about music, but still, he could feel the mightiness contained in the music Ye Futian had just played . Though it had a strong conception, the spell was still just in the Arcana Plane . He just couldn't understand what made it so special to people .
Today was the end of the year as well as the fourteenth birthday of the Dragon Clan's little princess . The young man wanted to select a good present for the little princess who was good at music and was going to be a Dragon Master in the future .
At tonight's party, many members of the family would have prepared all kinds of presents . He wanted to be different from the others .
