In the vast and boundless void, a roar that seemed to shatter the heavens and earth rumbled through the air.
This roar deterred even the heavens, evoking an involuntary sense of submission in all things!
In an instant, an aura of supreme dominance swept through the void.
Ye Xiu's pupils suddenly contracted. Before him, an enormous golden dragon soared into the sky. Wherever it passed, even the void quaked and trembled with great turmoil!
This was the awe of a true dragon!
A true dragon!
It looked exactly like the dragon carved on the zither.
An aura of supreme nobility looking down on the world.
At this moment, Ye Xiu's fingers unconsciously plucked the strings of the ancient zither.
Ding
The instant the first note rang out, the two people drinking tea in the pavilion showed no change in expression at first, but in the blink of an eye, they both shuddered, dropping the teacups in their hands which shattered on the ground.
They both suddenly stood up, their gazes looking towards Ye Xiu not far away who was playing the zither!
The moment the second note sounded, a roar of an enraged true dragon carrying a supreme aura directly entered the minds of the two!
The faces of the two changed dramatically, completely dumbfounded.
That was actually the roar of a true dragon with a god-level dragon bloodline!
A shocking scene appeared in their minds.
The hidden dragon lurked deep beneath the endless sea. Suddenly, towering waves shocking to heaven erupted and a golden dragon soared from beneath the sea. The instant the golden dragon took flight, the entire sea boiled recklessly, and at the same time the heavens and earth trembled!
This was the hidden dragon emerging from the sea, with the heavens and earth and all things paying it homage!
With only two notes, it depicted the magnificent and shocking scene of the hidden dragon emerging from the sea.
At this moment, neither Bai Qin nor Xue Yao could speak, staring blankly at Ye Xiu in shock.
Ye Xiu's hands were also uncontrollably trembling, but this was not fear, it was excitement!
This was the zither he wanted!
Capable of deterring the heavens and earth, shaking the nine heavens, a peerless zither!
Only a zither like this was worthy of his talents and temperament!
Thinking of this, Ye Xiu directly picked up the zither and walked towards his master and senior sister Xue Yao.
He saw that the two of them were completely dumbfounded in the pavilion, unable even to speak for a long time.
Ye Xiu was a little speechless, why couldn't they be more psychologically resilient like him, having been shocked so many times already.
Alas, it seems age really isn't the key to maturity, he was still more mature and steady, suited to being a good husband.
At this time, Bai Qin and Xue Yao finally recovered, but although they had calmed down, their beautiful eyes still trembled slightly.
Damn!
What the hell!
Especially Bai Qin, whose dao heart cultivated for thousands of years was about to collapse.
She had studied this zither for a hundred years and still hadn't figured out anything about it.
That's why she left the zither in the yard, regarding it only as an ordinary instrument to appreciate for its exquisitely carved dragon.
But she never imagined that this zither she hadn't been able to figure out anything about for a hundred years would actually erupt with dragon might!
Moreover, true dragon might!
Dragons were legendary god-level demon beasts capable of destroying the heavens and earth!
To think that dragon might capable of annihilating the heavens and earth was actually hidden in such an ordinary looking zither!
Ye Xiu directly asked: Master, you said this zither was an ordinary instrument, but I feel it's more amazing than the other three king-grade zithers by I don't know how many times, no?
The corner of Bai Qin's mouth involuntarily twitched. Looking at Ye Xiu, she said, I'm not as good as you.
Ye Xiu quickly said: How could master say such words? Master has cultivated the zither for thousands of years, your skills naturally far surpass this disciple's.
Bai Qin shook her head with a bitter smile. I've studied this zither for a hundred years and still wasn't able to figure anything out, which can only prove that its spirit doesn't acknowledge me. But you, with just a pluck of the strings, were able to elicit the spirit's resonance! And brought out the roar of a true dragon! You're a natural born zither prodigy! In the future you will surely attain sainthood through the zither! As Bai Qin spoke, she became more and more excited.
With such a monstrous son, what need is there to worry about him being unable to attain sainthood in the future?
But hearing these words, Ye Xiu didn't show much excitement. After all, with his cheat by his side, no matter how monstrous others were, they couldn't compare to him.
"Right, Master. In your opinion, what level could this zither reach now that it has a true dragon's spirit?" Ye Xiu asked.
Bai Qin's eyes flashed. "Although this zither has the most top level spirit, its materials are still ordinary. If you recklessly utilize the spirit, with these materials it wouldn't withstand even three uses before the zither is crippled. However, if you can learn zither forging techniques and slowly refine it in the future, even with the most basic materials, it would be sufficient to reach the saint grade!"
Saint grade! Ye Xiu's voice trembled slightly. Damn, that was just below god grade in legends! He would definitely have to learn zither forging techniques when necessary. He had no worries about not being able to learn it. With just a look, his comprehension would be equal to others' comprehension after dozens or even hundreds of years.
"Mm. The downside is that without you being able to use the spirit, this is just an ordinary zither. And it's best for a zitherist to only use one zither in their lifetime. So are you certain you want this zither?" Bai Qin asked.
Ye Xiu's gaze was firm. "I'm certain!"
He wasn't worried. After all, it wasn't necessarily impossible for him to reforge this zither a bit.
"Right, Master. Does this zither have a name?" Ye Xiu asked.
Bai Qin shook her head. "I thought it was just an ordinary zither, so why would I give it a name?"
Ye Xiu stroked his chin. "Then let's call it Defying Dragon Zither. Defying heaven and earth, with the dragon's arrogance reaching the nine heavens!"
Bai Qin nodded with a pleased smile.
"Teacher, we've disturbed your tranquility today, so we'll take our leave first." At this time, Xue Yao walked down the steps.
Bai Qin took out a jade-green spatial ring and said, "Alright. Here are three zither manuals, upper, middle and lower grade Xuan level zither techniques. Take them."
You currently only have zither intent but your intent can't cause substantive damage yet. These techniques can help make up for that.
Ye Xiu accepted the ring, cupped his fists, put on the ring, and stored the Defying Dragon Zither inside as well. "Many thanks, Master."
"Farewell, Master!"
"Farewell, Teacher!"
The two left after speaking.
Bai Qin remained standing there, watching until Ye Xiu and Xue Yao completely disappeared from sight, smilingly shaking her head. Perhaps she might get to see the rise of the generation's zither saint in her lifetime.
On the way back.
"Hey, Ye Xiu, where do you get such freakish comprehension from?" Xue Yao pouted adorably as she asked.
Ye Xiu grinned wickedly. "Xue Yao jiejie really wants to know?"
Xue Yao said coquettishly, "Of course!"
Ye Xiu hooked a finger and Xue Yao brought her face closer.
Ye Xiu looked at her long fluttering lashes and translucent crystalline skin, his heart blooming with joy.
*smooch*
Before he knew it, he directly stole a kiss.
Damn, so fragrant! A fairy's face really is different, lingering aftertaste!
Xue Yao's small face suddenly blushed bright red as she glared angrily at Ye Xiu.
Ye Xiu laughed. "Alright Xue Yao jiejie, to tell you the truth, no matter what I do, I only need to look at it once to comprehend it. Do you believe that?"
Xue Yao:
As if I'd believe your bullshit!
He's obviously messing with her!
Coupled with the anger from being stolen a kiss.
Xue Yao directly rolled up her sleeves, swinging her small fist. "You're asking for a beating!"
Ye Xiu yelled out, little loli can't be so violent!
