The guqin music reverberated in the void.
Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu watched from the crowd. Compared to the others who were amazed, their expressions were much calmer.
To Chu Kuangren, these two women were only average at best. They were far from being worthy of his praise.
As for Lan Yu, ever since she heard Chu Kuangren's guqin music, no other guqin music in this world could enter her ears.
The guqin duel gradually came to an end.
A loud clang could be heard.
Jing Nian's guqin music instantly became extremely high-pitched. Guqin music rained down on Lady Snowflake like a torrential downpour.
Gradually, Lady Snowflake's guqin music seemed to be unable to hold on any longer. With a loud clang, the guqin string broke!
The zither music that resounded throughout heaven and earth stopped in an instant.
Lady Snowflake looked at the broken guqin in front of her with a shocked expression. She had lost?!
"How could this be?"
Lady Snowflake felt an unprecedented sense of defeat. She had been cultivating guqin Dao for so many years. Even some of the elders in the sect could not compare to her. This was the first time she had lost to someone of the same age.
"According to the agreement, this guqin of yours is mine now."
Jing Nian walked up to Lady Snowflake and looked at her arrogantly before she took the guqin away.
Lady Snowflake's expression became even more desolate when she saw that.
"Snowflake, don't be sad. It's just a guqin. I'll get someone to find you a better one when we get back." At that moment, a man suddenly walked up to Lady Snowflake and comforted her.
Lady Snowflake took two steps back and said, "Thank you, Bachelor Sage Chang Yuan. However, the Heaven Chord Sect has a professional guqin craftsman. You don't have to trouble yourself with finding a guqin."
"Is that so?" Bachelor Sage Chang Yuan's eyes flashed with disappointment. He had wanted to use this opportunity to get closer to Lady Snowflake.
He had fallen in love with this woman since the first time he saw her. As a Bachelor Sage of the Overlord Clan, he even disregarded his identity to please her. However, she had always been lukewarm towards him.
"I didn't expect the Bachelor Sage of the Overlord Clan to be such a sentimental person. It's a pity that the love is reciprocated."
Jing Nian sneered and was about to leave.
"Sigh, the delicious food is gone." Godly Phoenix Xiao Hong could not help but sigh when she saw that Jing Nian was about to leave with the Fire Spirit Crystal.
However, to the others, it sounded like chattering.
Mian Nian, who was about to leave, heard the voice and looked towards the source of the voice. When she saw Lil Red on Chu Kuangren's shoulder, her eyes lit up and she strode towards it.
"I want your bird. Give me a price."
Upon hearing that, Chu Kuangren could not help but fall silent.
The surrounding men also had a strange look on their faces.
However, Jing Nian did not think too much about it. She kept staring at Lil 'Red with an indescribable fondness in her eyes.
She had seen images of the Divine Phoenix in ancient books, and the little bird in front of her was actually 70 to 80 percent similar to the legendary Divine Phoenix.
Of course, she did not think that this was the Divine Phoenix. After all, it was a Divine Beast. How could she encounter it so coincidentally?
She just felt that since this little bird looked so similar to the Godly Phoenix, it would not be a bad idea to buy it as a mascot.
"Sorry, I'm not selling this bird."
Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
"One hundred thousand Upper Spiritual Stones." Jing Nian said. She thought that using one hundred thousand Upper Spiritual Stones to buy a little bird was already a great deal for Chu Kuangren.
Not only her, but everyone around her thought the same as well.
They looked at Chu Kuangren enviously.
One hundred thousand Upper Spiritual Stones for a bird?
That was like a free lunch from the heavens.
When Lil Red heard what Jing Nian said, it started to chirp at Chu Kuangren on his shoulder.
"Are you kidding me? You're buying a Godly Phoenix with one hundred thousand Upper Spiritual Stones?"
"B * tch, hurry up and leave. I'm not selling, I'm not selling."
"I'll never leave you, brother."
However, that scolding made her even cuter to Jing Nian.
"It's more fun to play with such an energetic bird. How about this, I'll give you another hundred thousand Upper Spiritual Stones."
Jing Nian said like a tycoon.
As a noble lady of the Sky Emperor Palace, she did not lack those Upper Spiritual Stones.
"I won't be selling this bird, but it's not like there's no way for you to keep it." Chu Kuangren smiled.
"What way?"
"You and I have a musical duel. If you win, the bird is yours. If you lose, I want your Fire Spirit Crystal," Chu Kuangren said.
Everyone was stunned when they heard that.
Even Lady Snowflake, who was about to leave, stopped in her tracks.
"This Daoist Brother wants to have a musical duel with Jing Nian?"
"Hmph, he doesn't know what's good for him. Even you, Lady Snowflake, are no match for Jing Nian, let alone this kid who came out of nowhere." Bachelor Sage Chang Yuan sneered from the side.
Most of the people present had the same thought as him.
In the Firmament Star, the Heaven Chord Sect was the best at musical Dao. Even Lady Snowflake from the Heaven Chord Sect had lost to Jing Nian.
How could this guy who came out of nowhere beat her in musical Dao?
The crowd did not believe it.
"This kid probably knows a thing or two, but it's too bad that he's up against a musical Dao cultivator like Jing Nian. He can only lose."
"Tsk tsk, he really doesn't know his place."
"Let's see how he loses."
Jing Nian looked at Chu Kuangren in amusement. "Even if you want to give me this bird for free, you don't have to do this."
"I'll give it a try."
Chu Kuangren did not care about the doubts of the crowd.
He leaped and landed on top of a tall building.
Jing Nian came before him and took out her guqin.
"I'll let you go first," Jing Nian said.
"No, I advise you to go first. Otherwise, there's a high chance that you won't get another chance," Chu Kuangren said sincerely.
"How arrogant. I'll let you go first, so I'll let you go first."
Jing Nian frowned and was a little displeased.
The others also thought that Chu Kuangren was too good at pretending.
"The more arrogant he is, the more awkward it'll be when he loses later."
"That's right."
Chu Kuangren turned a deaf ear to the discussions around him.
He took out his Lingering Melody.
As soon as Lingering Melody was played, Lady Snowflake's eyes lit up and she could not help but exclaim, "What a nice guqin!"
"Lady Snowflake likes this guqin."
"Whether it's the material or the craftsmanship, this is a top-notch piece of art. It's even better than the one I had before."
Sage Chang Yuan fell into deep thought when he heard that.
"Since you want me to go first, I won't hold back then."
Chu Kuangren placed the guqin on his knees and plucked it with all ten fingers.
The moment the guqin music rang out, Jing Nian could not help but look shocked. Then, her eyes widened and her face was filled with disbelief.
The noisy crowd instantly became incomparably quiet.
The guqin music contained a boundless Daoist Rhyme as it reverberated. Everyone felt as if their minds were being pulled into that boundless world.
This was especially true for Jing Nian. She was affected by the Daoist Rhyme in the guqin music. She felt as if she was in a boundless world as the boundless Daoist Rhyme surged towards her like a tidal wave, making it difficult for her to defend herself.
It was too terrifying.
This guqin music, this Daoist Rhyme was too terrifying.
Jing Nian raised her trembling hand and tried to play the guqin in her hand to resist Chu Kuangren's guqin music. However, when her fingers landed on the guqin strings, she realized that she could not make a single sound no matter how hard she tried.
Her Zither Dao had been completely suppressed!
"How can there be such a guqin Daoist Rhyme in this world?!"
