Chapter 357: Chapter 375 Music Demon
Great Zhou Dynasty, the capital city.
In a rather deserted tavern.
Chu Yuan walked in.
Enveloped by countless golden specks, he made the few mortals inside kneel and call out “Immortal”.
But Chu Yuan had no time to attend to such matters.
His gaze swept around ceaselessly.
He heard it!
That piercing noise.
It was coming from this tavern!
However, after entering, the noise had vanished, leaving Chu Yuan unable to pinpoint its exact location.
He only knew that the person making the noise was inside the tavern.
“Sect Master, what are you looking for? Do you need my help?”
Ao Yu stepped forward and asked.
“No need, just stand there,” Chu Yuan waved his hand, his eyes still scanning the tavern.
He wanted to find the person who made the noise.
After examining the whole place,
eventually, Chu Yuan’s gaze landed on the second floor.
To be exact, it settled on a woman wearing light red garments by the balcony railing.
When Chu Yuan saw the woman in the light red dress, surprise flashed in his eyes.
This person…
Her body was somewhat ethereal…
Chu Yuan, puzzled, immediately opened the System to probe and started to inspect the woman’s template.
[Object of Investigation: Si Yue]
[Race: Monster—Music Demon]
[Cultivation Level: Foundation Establishment Realm]
[Physique: Phantom Sound Body]
[Evaluation: This monster is born from music. Music Demons are extremely rare monsters, which require special music to sustain their existence, or they will dissipate.
According to the System’s detection, this monster has an exceptional talent for music, while other talents are extremely weak or even nonexistent, and it’s on the verge of dissipating. It is recommended that the host take it as a disciple and teach it ways unrelated to music; if so, the chance of success is zero.]
[Note: If the host takes this monster as a disciple, they will have to find a way to prolong its life, which involves finding the Great Dao Melody.]
Chu Yuan stared at the template, dumbstruck, his eyes widening to the extreme.
This template!!
Isn’t this precisely what he was looking for?
A music monster! Gifted only in music, with all other talents being zero!
And the System directly provided a solution.
Teach it the ways unrelated to music, and the chances of success will drop to zero!
Which means, he just needed to blabber on about anything, ensuring the content had nothing to do with music, and that would suffice.
What a great candidate.
Just the right kind of person to take as a disciple.
Chu Yuan’s eyes lit up.
“Ao Yu, clear the area. Kick everyone out, oh, except for the woman in the light red dress on the second floor,” Chu Yuan waved his hand and casually ordered.
“Got it, Sect Master!”
Ao Yu nodded in agreement, ready to forcefully evict these mortals.
But Su Xi promptly stopped Ao Yu.
“Wait, Respected Master, let me do it. It’s simpler for me to handle this matter,” Su Xi said eagerly.
“Sure,”
Chu Yuan nodded, looking at Su Xi.
Frankly, he was curious to see what Su Xi’s method would be.@@novelbin@@
He hadn’t seen this disciple’s, Su Xi’s, techniques yet.
“Respected Master, please wait a moment,”
She quickly nodded.
Then she began to exhibit her own method.
Chu Yuan watched intently.
In his view, Su Xi raised her hand, and then…
And then there was nothing.
Chu Yuan was confused; he was just about to ask Su Xi why she hasn’t made a move.
But the next moment, he noticed something was amiss.
All the people inside the tavern suddenly lifted their heads, each of them showing a dazed expression in their eyes.
Then, all the mortals slowly walked out of the tavern.
Like marionettes pulled by strings.
Just within a moment,
the tavern was cleared out.
All mortals had walked out of the tavern.
This dumbfounded Chu Yuan.
What in the world was this thing?
He didn’t even know what happened, and the tavern had been cleared out?
What was this thing that Su Xi did?
In a trance, Chu Yuan remembered the instructions he once gave—what was that nonsense about the way of puppetry?
Could this thing really be cultivated?
And it was so damn miraculous.
He didn’t see anything, and yet everything was completed.
Chu Yuan was utterly bewildered.
If the nonsense he spouted could be cultivated, then if he found a disciple capable of greatness and taught them the way to split open the heavens, would that disciple truly go to split open the heavens, standing shoulder to shoulder with the sun?
“Respected Master, it has been accomplished,”
Su Xi bowed and faced Chu Yuan, speaking slowly.
“Uh…”
Chu Yuan was stunned for a long time before he answered with a single word. After thinking for a bit, he continued with another sentence.
“You all just wait here, don’t let any mortals come in here,”
Chu Yuan said.
He then went straight towards the second floor.
Su Xi glanced at Ao Yu, and their gazes crossed, both filled with confusion.
Since Chu Yuan had given the order, they dared not disobey.
They silently stood in place, watching Chu Yuan’s actions.
…
On the other side,
Chu Yuan approached Si Yue on the second floor.
The two of them looked at each other.
Si Yue was the first to speak.
“Who are you? Why are you looking for me? I don’t seem to have offended you, have I?”
Si Yue’s voice was very pleasing to the ear, like the song of orioles and swallows.
She could tell that Chu Yuan had come for her.
Evicting everyone from the tavern and leaving only her behind clearly indicated he intended to meet with her.
“I am the Sect Master of the Hidden Sect of East State. Have you heard of this title?”
Chu Yuan put on an air of nonchalance, one hand behind his back, speaking slowly.
He was once again using the prestige of the East State Hidden Sect.
“What? The Hidden Sect Master of East State? The Hidden Sect of East State?!”
Si Yue’s pupils shrank sharply, no longer able to maintain her composure due to weakness, her expression filled with shock.
Having traveled many places, she of course knew what the Hidden Sect of East State was about.
And precisely because she knew, she was shocked.
The Hidden Sect of East State was no simple matter…
The masters of the holy lands in East State, Yun State, Cang State, and Gu State all originated from this Hidden Sect of East State.
Even across the entire Divinity Continent, the Hidden Sect of East State held an extremely high reputation.
The man before her was actually the Hidden Sect Master of East State!
That was the legendary Sect Master of the Daoless Sect!
Of course, Si Yue was tremendously shocked to meet such an existence.
This was a figure who existed only in legends!
This existence was comparable to the Great Dao Melody.
Both were legendary figures.
“Indeed, it seems you do recognize this seat,”
Chu Yuan, seeing that Si Yue recognized the title, nodded with satisfaction and smiled.
In his heart, he pondered whether he really should bring forward the plan to eliminate the true East State Hidden Sect.
As long as he got rid of that sect, removed the real East State Hidden Sect Master,
he would then transform from a counterfeit to the real deal, from someone just falsely wielding prestige to someone genuine.
“You… Then can you play the Great Dao Melody?”
Si Yue asked with immense excitement…
