The sound of the guqin.
It was like a stream of light that turned into ripples on the surface of a lake. It created ripples that flowed towards the String Master in the form of waves!
The sound of the guqin didn't seem to be fast, but everyone could feel that it was pervasive. It was like a sailboat floating in the ocean. It couldn't escape the ebb and flow of the waves.
"This, this is …"
When Qin Manyun's aura appeared, the String Master was dumbfounded. At that moment, his cultivation seemed to have met its natural enemy. He didn't hesitate to go into hibernation. His entire body was covered in goosebumps, and he couldn't stop trembling.
"What kind of guqin sound is this? It can actually resonate with the Great Dao!"
He couldn't believe it. His eyes were bulging and filled with blood vessels. Fear, surprise, helplessness, and other emotions surged in his heart. He didn't know what to do at all.
He watched all of this with his own eyes. He wanted to resist, but a sense of powerlessness rose in his heart.
He was too insignificant. He had been conceited his entire life and arrogant for countless years. He had never been defeated like today. He didn't expect that there would be a time when he would be so insignificant.
The speed of the Great Dao wasn't fast. It wasn't worried that the String Master would break free. It seemed to be giving him enough time to think, letting him quietly feel the despair before death.
This feeling was like an emperor announcing a person's death sentence. It was on the way to execution, and the outcome was already determined.
"Impossible. How can you have such extraordinary power?!"
The String Master let out his last stubborn roar. His hands were trembling because of fear. He stroked the body of the guqin with all his might and started playing!
He was crazy.
Guqin sounds began to wreak havoc. He didn't care about the consequences. He only wanted to release his strongest attack!
Normally, such an action would probably shake heaven and earth. It would cause quite a stir in the divine territory. A large part of the starry sky would be wiped out, and life would be plunged into misery and suffering.
However, at this moment, he was like a madman without cultivation playing the guqin recklessly. All the strange phenomena were suppressed, and it didn't cause the slightest ripple.
"You, you, you … You have a supreme Great Dao behind you? He, he … "
The String Master seemed to have thought of something terrifying. His voice was unclear. However, before he could finish speaking, the Great Dao ripple flowed past him like a small stream under everyone's gaze …
The sound of the zither stopped abruptly.
Just like that, his body and his guqin flowed away with the ripples of the Great Path in front of everyone's eyes, leaving no trace behind. It was as if they had never appeared.
If not for the fact that everyone had witnessed everything from the beginning to the end, they would have thought that the String Master was just an illusion.
It was too easy, too dreamy.
The dignified String Master was like chalk dust on a blackboard that had been erased by a blackboard eraser, easily erased …
The extreme shock caused everyone's eyes to widen. They even forgot to take a deep breath as they turned into statues. The scene just now repeatedly replayed in their minds.
As for the man beside the String Master, he was so shocked that he had become mute. His mouth was wide open as he pointed at the place where the String Master had disappeared with a trembling finger.
"Ah, ah, ah …"
Where is my master?
I was such a powerful, victorious, and awesome master. How could he disappear just like that?
Was this an illusion?
I must be under an illusion!
Nuwa and the others were the first to regain their senses. They immediately raised their hands and a majestic power suppressed the String Master's lackey, saving Taishang Laojun at the same time.
The other party was also an expert among the Chaos Daluo Golden Immortals. However, when faced with the combined forces of Nuwa and the others, he was naturally not enough. Moreover, his heart was already dead, and he was on the verge of collapse. He did not have any defense.
Until Taishang Laojun was rescued, his eyes were fixed on Qin Manyun. His eyes were in a daze, and he thought that he was dreaming.
If it was not a dream, how could he see a Daluo Golden Immortal unleash such a terrifying attack?
The changes in his hometown had subverted his worldview …
"Laojun!"
The Jade Emperor called out to the Laojun, causing him to regain his senses.
He looked at the Jade Emperor blankly, and his lips trembled. For a moment, countless questions surged in his heart, and he did not know where to start asking.
When fellow townsmen met, tears welled up in their eyes. They looked at each other speechlessly and could only weep.
Thousands of words were finally gathered into a single sentence by the Daoist Junjun. "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"
The Laojun looked at the Jade Emperor and finally asked the question that bothered him the most. "Jade Emperor, your cultivation seems to have … surpassed mine?"
"It's not 'seems'."
The Jade Emperor smiled and waved his hand. He said modestly, "It's a long story. I encountered some opportunities and broke through. There's nothing to brag about."
The Laojun did not speak. Suddenly, he felt sad.
He thought about how he had wandered in the chaos and experienced several life and death situations. He relied on his little alchemy skills to help others and survive in the cracks. However, now that he was back, he realized that the people who stayed at home were doing better than him.
He used to be a Sage in the Chaos Era. As time passed, he became a younger brother in front of his old friend.
"Why did I leave the Untainted Land?"
"Congratulations."
The Laojun did not want his old friend to see his weak side. He forced a smile and looked at Qin Manyun in awe. He whispered, "That … that person is?"
If he was shocked by Qin Manyun's talent and wanted to take her in as a disciple, then now, he began to admire himself for having such a crazy idea.
This woman … could not be offended!
The Daoist Junjun pretended to be mysterious and said, "Her background is too big. It's not something you can imagine. Let's go. I'll introduce you to her. Remember to be respectful."
The Laojun did not suspect anything and quickly said, "I know my limits."
He had been living miserably in the chaos and had long been trained to be thick-skinned in front of big shots. He would only put on airs if he did not want to live anymore.
Didn't you see that even the insufferably arrogant String Master had died? Moreover, the cause of death was too strange. No one would believe it if he told others.
There were crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the Chaos Era. One should not be too arrogant.
At this moment, Qin Manyun was also in a state of confusion. There was only one sentence in her mind, "I just plucked the strings and killed a mighty person in the Heavenly Realm?!"
I'm so awesome!
The Daoist Junjun did not dare to put on airs in front of Qin Manyun. He said respectfully, "Fairy Manyun, this is the Sage of the Chaos Era, Laojun Taishang."
"Laojun Taishang? Nice to meet you. I heard Young Master Li mention you. "
Qin Manyun immediately bowed to Laojun Taishang. When Li Nianfan explained the story of the Chaos Era, she knew the names of the Sages.
"You flatter me, you flatter me." Laojun Taishang hurriedly waved his hand and praised sincerely, "Fairy Manyun is the Chaos Era's Pride. The battle just now really made me admire you to the extreme. It allowed me, who was in despair, to see an impossible miracle. Especially the last attack, it's indescribable. I believe the entire Chaos Era can't replicate it!"
"Thank you, Fairy Manyun, for saving my life. Please accept my bow!"
As he spoke, Laojun Taishang bowed respectfully. He looked like a humble old man.
"Laojun, you flatter me. Actually, the last attack was the Great Path aura that Young Master Li attached to me when he was teaching me." Qin Manyun said embarrassedly.
The Daoist Junjun and the others suddenly understood. "So it was the doing of an expert."
Qin Manyun was filled with sincerity. She nodded and said, "Yes. Before I came, Young Master Li specially taught me for a day. He even played the guqin for me to sing with him. At first, I thought he was just guiding me. However, it turns out that most of the Great Path aura attached to me and protected me."
"This is not to protect you."
Nuwa shook her head and said firmly, "The expert must have predicted that the Guqin Master would do this. That's why he purposely placed a secret attack on you. He's clearly saved us all once again!"
The Jade Emperor agreed and said, "Lady Nuwa is right."
Taishang Laojun, who was listening on the side, was confused. He suddenly felt that he was out of touch with the times and was not in the same dimension as everyone else. He could not help but ask, "Pardon me for asking, but who is the master that Fairy Man Yun is talking about?"
Qin Manyun said, "It's Young Master Li. I'm lucky to be his guqin attendant."
"Guqin … Guqin attendant?"
Laojun Taishang's mind went blank. He could not believe his ears and froze on the spot.
This woman, who could withstand the Zither Master's music with just a zither, was actually willing to be a zither attendant?
Moreover, from their conversation, it was not hard to tell that Qin Manyun was able to withstand it because this so-called expert had taught her for a day!
The most important thing was that the last terrifying attack was also the technique of that expert!
What kind of godly existence was this?
The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it was!
His old face was so shocked that it started to distort. He did not know how to express the state of his heart.
He looked at the calm Jade Emperor and the others and asked, "You … Aren't you shocked?"
The Jade Emperor said calmly, "We're used to being shocked. You don't understand how powerful the expert is."
Laojun Taishang said blankly, "I really don't understand. It's beyond my scope of understanding."
"Oh right, I have a piece of good news for you."
Yao Mengji suddenly spoke from the side with a mysterious smile on his face.
"Oh? What's the news? "Everyone was interested.
Lady Yun Shu smiled and said, "It has something to do with the expert, right?"
"Hahaha, smart! Manyun and I came from the expert. Of course, this news has something to do with the expert. "
Yao Mengji stroked his beard and pretended to be a gentleman. Then, he said, "Before we left, the expert gave me something. He said it was a reward for us."
As soon as he said that, the Jade Emperor and the others' eyes lit up like light bulbs. They were extremely excited.
The expert's reward was naturally something extraordinary. Looking at Yao Mengji's smug expression, it was definitely something extraordinary!
Qin Manyun laughed and said, "Alright, Master. Don't keep us in suspense. Hurry up and tell them."
The smile on Yao Mengji's face grew bigger and bigger. He raised the plastic bag and said loudly, "Look! Dang dang dang dang dang! "
At that moment, everyone's attention was attracted. Then, their pupils constricted.
Nuwa gasped and said with a trembling voice, "This, this is..."
"Dumplings! It's dumplings!"
Qin Zhongshan and Bai Chen shouted at the same time. Their faces were filled with joy.
Daoist Junjun was also shocked. She gulped and her eyes were glued to the dumplings. "Could this be the dumplings?"
Previously, when Nuwa went out with Blackie to fight the Taotie, they were unable to go because they had to guard the Heavenly Palace. When they heard Nuwa describe the delicious taste of roasted Taotie, they were extremely envious. Of course, they also heard Nuwa mention that the expert could make dumplings out of Taotie meat.
Then, this dumpling … was most likely made out of Taotie meat!
How could they not be excited when they were suddenly hit by the surprise of their dreams?
"Dumplings …"
Jade Emperor's eyes suddenly flashed. He said thoughtfully, "If I remember correctly, dumplings are a symbol of reunion in the mortal world, right?"
As soon as he said that, everyone's heart skipped a beat. They immediately understood the meaning behind it.
"The expert … already knows that Laojun will return. That's why he gave us the dumplings to celebrate our reunion?"
"Indeed, everything is under the expert's control."
"Sigh, what did we do to deserve such great favor from the expert?"
Everyone was filled with emotions. Their excited emotions instantly disappeared. Their eyes were filled with tears. They were so touched that they fell into a state of self-improvement.
How can I repay you? My expert!
Taishang Laojun looked around and could not help but purse his lips. He said, "That … I'm sorry to interrupt. Aren't you guys a little too exaggerated? It's just a bag of dumplings. There's no need to … "
After not seeing them for so many years, he never expected that not only had their strength increased by a lot, even their bootlicking skills had improved by leaps and bounds. They had transformed into experts who could boast about even the most trivial matters.
"Be careful with your words!"
Daoist Junjun immediately shouted. Her face was solemn as she said seriously, "Laojun, you're too presumptuous. You've been in the chaos for so many years. Since you can't understand some things, then don't say them! Don't judge them so casually! "
Taishang Laojun was shocked. He was so weak that he did not dare to speak.
"Laojun, you'll understand soon."
Jade Emperor patted Taishang Laojun's shoulder. His eyes were fixed on the bag of dumplings. He said, "Hurry up. Don't waste the expert's good intentions. Let's eat while it's still fresh."
Naturally, this sentence was unanimously agreed by everyone, and the group hurriedly returned to the Heavenly Palace.
They quickly set up the stove, started a fire, boiled water, and cooked the dumplings …
Then, they held bowls and chopsticks in their hands and surrounded the pot. They looked into the pot eagerly, hoping that the dumplings would float to the surface.
The group of cultivators simply threw their image to the back of their minds. They were like children staring at their favorite delicacies. The scene was extremely comical.
As they secreted too much saliva, the sound of them swallowing their saliva was like a symphony …
