Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Chapter 356: Chapter 376 Si Yue

Within the Eastern Province.

The Mortal Realm, Great Zhou Dynasty.

Above a cloud-layer atop a plaza in the Imperial Capital.

Chu Yuan looked down upon the crowd flooding the plaza below as he searched with his System, scanning each person one by one.

To Chu Yuan’s disappointment, he had not found the kind of disciple he was searching for.

Of these passersby, ninety-nine percent were ordinary, with potential to succeed.

One percent possessed various remarkable physiques and innate talents.

None of these were Chu Yuan’s targets.

Chu Yuan sighed deeply, out of options.

Finding the destined disciple was clearly a matter of luck.

“Ao Yu, Xi Er, let’s go.”

Chu Yuan waved his hand gently, not intending to stay any longer.

Since none of these people were his target, there was no point in lingering.

“Alright.”

Ao Yu and Su Xi naturally had no objections and nodded in agreement.

Just as Chu Yuan was about to turn and leave,

A rustling sound suddenly reached his ears.

This sound…

Was very much like the sound of someone humming a tune.

However, what drew Chu Yuan’s attention was not the musical quality of the sound but rather that it was somewhat grating to the ear.

It wasn’t exactly unpleasant…@@novelbin@@

Mainly, for some reason, Chu Yuan found it somewhat irritating to listen to.

“Wait, Ao Yu, Xi Er, do you hear an unpleasant song… well, not exactly a song, but a jarring musical sound?”

Chu Yuan turned his head to look at the two behind him and asked aloud.

“Nope.”

“Respected Master, I haven’t heard any music.”

Ao Yu and Su Xi exchanged puzzled looks, both completely baffled.

They simply couldn’t hear any music whatsoever.

All they heard was the noise and clamor coming from below.

“Nothing?”

Chu Yuan frowned.

Could it be that only he could hear it?

He fell silent for a moment. Could it be his chance?

Was he the only one able to hear this unique sound?

Could it mean he, too, was a genius?

No!

Impossible, his template was simply that of an ordinary person.

So what could be the reason that only he could hear this sound?

Chu Yuan listened intently, soon pinpointing the origin of the sound.

Probably…

In that direction.

Chu Yuan’s gaze locked onto the eastern edge of the city.

The music was coming from that direction.

“Let’s go, Ao Yu, Xi Er, follow me.”

Chu Yuan intended to find out the source of the sound.

In any case, he was definitely not afraid, no matter why the sound was coming; he was absolutely fearless.

He was in an invincible state, after all.

Chu Yuan led the way, flying in that direction.

Ao Yu and Su Xi quickly followed him.

…

Elsewhere.

On the eastern edge of the Great Zhou Imperial Capital.

Inside a rather desolate tavern room,

A beautiful woman dressed in light red clothing leaned against the bed’s edge.

This woman was quietly humming an unknown tune.

The tune that came from her lips was quite peculiar.

Some people find it pleasant to listen to, while others find it extremely grating to the ear, and some can’t even hear it at all.

The tune she hummed was mysterious, and her body even more so.

When looked upon with the naked eye, the woman’s body appeared somewhat ethereal.

As if it had no substance at all.

“I’ve finally reached the end,”

she murmured softly after finishing a piece of the tune, her eyes filled with immense sorrow.

Her name was Si Yue, and she was not a Mortal, but a Monster.

Yes, she was a Monster.

A Music Demon!

Born from the music itself.

She came into being unexpectedly through the sound of eight different musical instruments: bells, chimes, zither, flute, reed pipe, ocarina, drums, and clapsticks.

The existence of a Music Demon was exceedingly rare.

Even the Demon Race did not have any Music Demons.

This woman Si Yue could be considered the sole Music Demon.

It was extremely difficult for a Music Demon to exist in this world, as she was born from the music of the eight instruments.

Si Yue needed to listen to the Music of the Eight Sounds from time to time in order to survive.

However, in recent times, musical instruments have frequently gone extinct within the Human Race, and now it is impossible to gather all eight instruments, let alone play the Music of the Eight Sounds.

With the loss of the Music of the Eight Sounds, Si Yue’s lifespan became incredibly limited, and now she was almost at her final moments, her presence fading away as if ready to dissipate at any time.

“I have traveled through the Eighty-two Provinces, witnessed the passage of years, seen the changes of eras, but I have never found what I’ve been searching for… Perhaps… this is my fate. The Great Dao Melody, I’m unable to find it in this life after all,”

Si Yue sighed deeply.

Ever since she came into being, she traveled the Mortal Realm and listened to many enchanting pieces of music.

But what she’s always been searching for was the Great Dao Melody.

The Great Dao Melody that only exists in legends.

According to legend, when the Music of the Eight Sounds reaches the ultimate realm, the Great Dao Melody will appear.

The Great Dao Melody is also what countless music masters in the Divinity Continent have dreamt of obtaining.

But no one has ever witnessed it, the Great Dao Melody exists only in legends.

Si Yue sought the Great Dao Melody because, in an ancient tome, she had seen and learned about her predicament, that perhaps the Great Dao Melody could save her.

Therefore, she had been searching for the Great Dao Melody all along.

But she had never found it.

Si Yue was gradually losing hope.

She gently closed her eyes, seeming ready to quietly await her own dissipation.

As she waited, she started humming a tune again.

The mysterious music resumed.

Rustle…

Suddenly, a series of noises came from outside.

Quite noisy, indeed.

This startled Si Yue, and she furrowed her brows, glancing toward the outside.

The inn where she resided, as far as she knew, was usually not very crowded.

Yet this time it had become noisy.

This was indeed rare.

However, Si Yue didn’t pay much attention to it and closed her eyes once more.

But she suddenly heard a sentence from the room next door that caught her attention.

“Quick, go outside, an Immortal has come in! The kind that glows all around…”

“That Immortal is so handsome! I don’t know why, but I have this urge to devour him!!”

Si Yue paused for a moment.

Immortal?

A Cultivator?

She thought for a while, and then she stood up, deciding to go outside to see what kind of Cultivator it was.

She had traveled across the Divinity Continent before, relying on some innate talents of a Music Demon and, with her minor Cultivation Levels, managed to traverse the Continent.

She had encountered numerous powerful Cultivators.

But listening to the conversation from the next room, she became a little interested in the person outside.

What kind of Cultivator would enter the Mortal Realm?

And visit this deserted inn?

Si Yue looked at her increasingly ethereal body, shook her head, walked to the door, and with some effort, opened it.

She stepped outside…
