The Skyfire Plane was a rather renowned place among the forty-nine great planes of the Saints' World. Compared to the Cloud Plane, which was also one of the forty-nine great planes, both in terms of overall strength and reputation, the Skyfire Plane was incomparable to the Cloud Plane.
This was because a famed peak expert had once been born on the Skyfire Plane. His cultivation had reached the apex, and he was so powerful that many Grand Primes in the Saints' World would pale in fright at the mention of him.
Not only was she known as one of the most powerful people below Grand Exalts in the past, but her Way of Music had also reached an unbelievable level. She wielded the renowned Zither of the Demonic Cry and created the Two Tunes of the Demonic and Divine.
When the two tunes were played, they could play the mysteries of the world and interfere with the workings of the heavenly ways.
When the Demonic Song was played, it could steal the souls of all living things in the world, killing people without a trace. It could control the minds of Grand Primes, causing their expressions to change.
No one knew the name of this supreme expert. They only knew that she came from the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound on the Skyfire Plane, and her name was the Third Ancestor. Her name shook up the Saints' World, and she was a peak expert who stood at the apex of the Saints' World.
It was because of the Third Ancestor that the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound became the greatest organisation on the Skyfire Plane. It possessed an extremely great status.
However, good times did not last forever. After the Third Ancestor died over three million years ago, the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound lost its right to be the greatest organisation on the Skyfire Plane. It was replaced by another organisation.
This was because the glory of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound was all because of the Third Ancestor. Without the protection of the Third Ancestor, the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound was not even close to being the greatest organisation on the Skyfire Plane with its heritage, let alone remaining as the greatest organisation on the Skyfire Plane.
However, even with that being the case, the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound still possessed a certain status on the Skyfire Plane. It was one of the great organisations on the Skyfire Plane.
In particular, due to the influence of the Third Ancestor when she was still alive, the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound still received the respect of many peak organisations that stood at the apex of the Skyfire Plane even though they had fallen from their position as the greatest organisation.
At this moment, within the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound in the central region of the Skyfire Plane, there was a beautiful woman in a purple dress. She was so perfect that she seemed like a painting. She sat on the peak of a mountain shrouded in clouds.
This woman appeared to be only in her twenties. Not only was her peerless appearance beautiful to the point of suffocation, but her temperament was also otherworldly. At first glance, it was as if she was truly an otherworldly fairy.
The woman's enchanting eyes stared unblinkingly at the zither on her knees. Her expression was focused as her slender fingers gently plucked at the strings, producing a celestial melody.
This beautiful woman was Shangguan Mu 'er.
Due to the Zither of the Demonic Cry, Shangguan Mu 'er stirred up all the upper echelon of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound as soon as she entered. She had even alarmed the ancestor who had been in seclusion for several hundred thousand years. She emerged as soon as possible.
This was because the Zither of the Demonic Cry was the lifebound treasure of the Third Ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound. Ever since the Third Ancestor died, the Zither of the Demonic Cry had vanished.
As a result, when Shangguan Mu 'er appeared in the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound with the Zither of the Demonic Cry, all the upper echelon of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound believed that it was the Third Ancestor's legacy.
With her identity as the successor of the Third Ancestor, Shangguan Mu 'er enjoyed an extremely special and lofty status in the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound. She had even been personally nurtured by the ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound. Her status was only second to the sect master.
At this moment, an extremely handsome man in white robes appeared behind Shangguan Mu 'er. He held a jade flute engraved with the image of a dragon and phoenix.
The man had arrived silently. He stood a few metres away as he stared at Shangguan Mu 'er's back. Undisguised adoration and infatuation filled his eyes.
Afterwards, the man elegantly placed the jade flute by his mouth and played it along with Shangguan Mu 'er's melody.
This man clearly had great attainments in music. Once the sound of the jade flute was emitted, it perfectly blended with the sound of the zither. That gentle and pleasing sound directly entered one's heart, causing a comfortable feeling to emerge from the depths of one's heart.
The zither and the flute harmonized. Anyone who saw this would think that they were an immortal couple. It was enviable.
However, the harmony between the zither and the flute did not continue. The moment the flute sounded, the zither music suddenly stopped. Only the gentle and pleasing sound of the flute slowly spread out and reverberated in the mountain peak.
Shangguan Mu 'er had already stopped playing. She frowned slightly and said, "Senior Kong, why have you come?" Shangguan Mu 'er's voice was cold and emotionless. It was filled with a sense of unapproachable coldness.
The man was called Jun Kong. His master was one of the four ancestors of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound. His talent was astonishing. Not only was he a dazzling new star in the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound, but he was also a supreme prodigy renowned across the Skyfire Plane.
Moreover, Jun Kong had already deeply engraved his name on the Divine King's Throne a hundred years ago. He was truly a supreme Divine King!
Jun Kong did not continue playing the flute when he saw Shangguan Mu 'er stop playing. He looked at Shangguan Mu' er's back gently and said with a gentle voice, "Junior Mu 'er, why have you suddenly stopped? The scenery here is so elegant, like a paradise. Why don't we play a song together so that our Way of Music can make this fairy-like scenery even more charming?"
"I like to be alone. I don't want to be disturbed, so please go back, senior Kong," Shangguan Mu 'er said coldly without even looking back.
Jun Kong did not leave. He stared at Shangguan Mu 'er's back deeply. His gaze was filled with love, but there were also mixed feelings. He sighed gently, "Junior Mu' er, ever since you came to the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound, I've never seen you smile. You're always sunken, as if you have a lot on your mind. Are you still thinking about that person on the distant Cloud Plane? Have you not forgotten about him? "
"That's my own matter. There's no need to trouble senior Kong with it," said Shangguan Mu 'er.
"Junior Mu 'er, if you really are still thinking about that person, I can only advise you to forget about him as soon as possible. I've just received news that the person called Jianchen on the distant Cloud Plane has already died. He died to the hands of the Heavenly Demon Religion, having his soul wiped out," said Jun Kong.
Shangguan Mu 'er shuddered when she heard that. She could not help but tremble violently. A smear of paleness appeared on her beautiful face. After a moment of silence, she murmured with a trembling voice, "Impossible, impossible. It's impossible for him to be dead. This news must be fake."
