Half the night passed like this. The sky was already dawn, and the valley was filled with a trace of early morning coldness and the fragrance of vegetation.

Xiao Chen’s zither music continued to flow like an ancient spring in the mountains.

After playing the zither for a night, not only did he feel refreshed, his inner breath was completely balanced, but his cultivation had also recovered completely, benefiting entirely from the rhythm of the zither.

The so-called rhythm was definitely not a chaotic zither, or an ordinary tune. Those who played it had to adjust the rhythm according to the direction of their true energy. This way, not only could their Genuine energy recover quickly, they could even heal their injuries quickly.

Once this ability reached its peak, not only could the melody be used to recover one’s Genuine energy, but it could also be used to recover the true qi of others. Healing was not a problem, and if it was used to disturb the enemy, it would be even more useful.

Xiao Chen’s melody was passed down by Ling Yin. Ling Yin was known as Fairy Miaoyin. Her attainments in melody were naturally unmatched by anyone. However, what Xiao Chen had learned was actually less than one in ten or two.

At this moment, even Zi Yuan felt refreshed when she heard the melodious zither music. Even after standing by the side for a night, she did not feel tired at all.

Xiao Chen suddenly said, “Zi Yuan, you’ve been listening to the zither all night. Let’s talk about how the zither sounds this night.”

“Ah?”

This question puzzled Zi Yuan, Although this wasn’t the first time she had heard Xiao Chen play the zither, she didn’t know anything about music. She scratched her head and whispered, “I, I can’t tell you why. Anyway, it sounds good anyway. I think … the best tune I’ve ever heard in the world is the one Excellency is playing.”

Her words weren’t meant to flatter him, but she listened to Xiao Chen’s zither music. It was as high as an eagle striking the sky, flying thousands of kilometers into the clouds. The low place was like a spring, rumbling. Slowly, it was like a cool breeze from a panasonic, gently blowing; The galloping place was like an unstoppable army, unstoppable. It was truly not something that an ordinary person could play.

Xiao Chen shook his head and said, “If you had sniffed the song of one person, you wouldn’t have said that.”

“Ah?”

Zi Yuan was stunned. Could there be someone in this world who could play the zither better than Excellency? Yes, the person he is talking about at this moment must be his master, Xuanqing Sect of Fairy Miaoyin. Fairy Miaoyin is proficient in melody, and his attainment in melody is unparalleled …

“Coming.”

Xiao Chen raised his fingers and slowly pushed them. As he spoke, Zi Yuan was stunned for a moment before she realized that the people outside had barged in!

Just as she was about to pull out her weapon, Xiao Chen said, “No need, just retreat behind me.”

“Your Excellency …”

Zi Yuan was stunned for a moment, but then she came to a sudden realization. Excellency’s attainments in rhythm were so great that he must have recovered his strength. At this moment, not to mention the dozen or so killers outside, even if there were another 20, they would not be his opponents. Thinking of this, she was relieved and retreated to the ancient pine tree behind.

Soon, more than a dozen people outside had already followed the zither sounds, but even if there was no zither sound, it would not be difficult for them to find this place.

More than a dozen people rushed to the valley entrance. The black-clothed man in the lead recognized the white-haired boy from yesterday. However, yesterday, the other party seemed to be using his cultivation to treat his injuries. Why would he be playing the zither here today? This is really strange …

“Brat, why is it you again?” A person behind him shouted coldly. “Let me ask you …”

“There’s no need to ask. She’s in the valley.” Xiao Chen continued to play the zither slowly. He didn’t even raise his head and didn’t even look at the dozen people.

When Xiao Chen heard that Xiao Meng’er was in the valley, two of the dozen or so people immediately rushed forward. Xiao Chen ignored the two of them and rushed into the valley. He lightly plucked the strings and the zither music immediately turned into a green light and flew out. With a “zheng” sound, the two people who rushed in were sent flying back.

This scene was too sudden. The dozen people outside were all shocked. The black-clothed man in the lead reacted first and immediately shot two sharp sword-like gazes at Xiao Chen. He said gloomily, “Sir, what do you mean?”

Xiao Chen’s zither music was endless, and he said indifferently, “This place was originally a beautiful place with beautiful mountains and rivers, but everyone here is filled with killing intent. It would be detrimental to the scenery here. I think it’s better to sit down for now and listen to I am play this song.”

“I’ve already seen that you have a problem. Go!”

The black-clothed man’s gaze was cold and fierce. He gave the order, and the dozen or so people behind him immediately drew out their weapons. However, before they could approach, Xiao Chen’s zither music seemed to have transformed into millions of rays of light and slashed out horizontally.

Even though their cultivation levels weren’t low, they couldn’t withstand this kind of zither music. The light was damaged within five years, and the heavy was injured in the primordial spirit. In a short moment, more than a dozen people were knocked backwards by the zither music like withered grass.

Only now did the black-clothed man suddenly wake up. This time, he had misjudged. This person’s zither music ability alone was no longer inferior to Xiao Meng’er’s!

“Sir … who exactly is it?”

The black-clothed man was shocked, but he saw Xiao Chen still playing the zither calmly. He hadn’t even messed with the zither rhyme since just now. Who could do this …

Could it be …

At this moment, the black-clothed man instantly felt as if he had fallen into an ice abyss. In the Spirit Ruins Realm, as far as he knew, only Immortal Monarch Donghua was capable of such a thing. Could it be that this person was actually a disciple of Immortal Monarch Donghua? Could it be that senior brother Xiao Meng’er …

“What? You’re not leaving yet. Could it be that you’re planning to wait for her to come out, cut off your limbs, dig out your eyes, and finally force me to find out who the employer is?”

Xiao Chen continued to play the zither as he spoke with an indifferent expression.

At this moment, the dozen or so people completely reacted, and without stopping, they instantly turned into sickly shadows and went outside.

“Zi Yuan, you must be very strange. Why don’t I ask those people who sent them?” Xiao Chen said.

Zi Yuan frowned and whispered, “Then … why didn’t Excellency ask?”

Xiao Chen gently pressed his fingers on the string and looked at the white clouds outside the valley. He said indifferently, “This is a matter of the six great clans. It has nothing to do with Lustless Heaven.”

Zi Yuan scratched her head. She was somewhat confused. Xiao Chen stopped talking and continued to play the zither until it was almost noon. Suddenly, an icy cold aura arrived behind him in an instant.

The zither music suddenly came to an end. Xiao Chen gently pressed his hands on the zither string. He did not get up, nor did he turn around. He only said indifferently, “You want to kill me? Kill the person who saved your life this morning?”

Behind him, Xiao Meng’er had already stood there at an unknown time. The other party’s speed was too fast, even Zi Yuan could not react.

At this moment, the aura on her body was as cold as frost. Not only that, it was also extremely suffocating. Obviously, not only had her injuries healed completely, but even her cultivation had broken through the shackles that had existed for a long time.

“Thank you for helping me defend against those people. I, Xiao Meng’er, owe you a favor today.”

At this moment, Xiao Meng’er’s voice could not hear any change in her emotions, but it was much colder than before. At this moment, she seemed to have turned back into Fairy, who had a heart that was as still as water and didn’t ask anything about the mortal world.

“Oh?”

Xiao Chen slowly stood up and didn’t turn around to look at her. “Fairy didn’t kill me. I am has already accepted great kindness. How dare you let Fairy owe I am another favor …” he said.

As he spoke, he walked out of the valley. Only then did Zi Yuan regain her senses, picked up the jade zither he had left on the ground, and quickly followed.

Xiao Meng’er said from behind, “Aren’t you being hunted down by your enemies? Do you need me to help you retreat?”

“No need.”

Xiao Chen’s voice was still faint, “The tide is almost over. Fairy Xiao should think of a way to get out as soon as possible. As for the Eye of the Nether Spring, I don’t think we need to think about it anymore …”

The sound gradually faded away, and the figure slowly disappeared into the forest outside the valley.

Xiao Meng’er was still standing there, staring in the direction where he left. The tide was about to end. It was unknown how far away this place was from the outside, and it was unknown how Xiao Ling’er and the others were doing now …

Right at this moment, a wisp of spiritual sense suddenly came out from her sleeve. Immediately after, she quickly took out a jade note. There was a flash of spiritual light inside the jade note, and she said to herself, “Fifth Elder is here …”

…

After traveling for an unknown distance, Xiao Chen was still thinking about Xiao Meng’er’s immortal aura. Perhaps her cultivation level was already higher than hers. She was indeed a terrifying person. If Qianyu Nichang could not cultivate the Three Flowers Gathering Summit, she would most likely be inferior to her …

The Xiao Clan’s ancient martial arts were exquisite, and the Immortal Joan Sect’s dao techniques were unparalleled. It seemed that she was the only one who could perfectly mix the two together.

The appearance of such a powerful person in the Xiao Clan was equivalent to having another Saint realm expert in the near future. Furthermore, he was the youngest Saint realm expert. In the future, he would even reach the legendary Outer Realm … No wonder such a powerful person would arouse the fear of the other clans.

After the two left for a while, Zi Yuan suddenly asked, “Why didn’t Excellency ask her to help deal with that person?”

“Are you talking about that aura from last night?” Xiao Chen’s expression was indifferent. After Zi Yuan heard this, her brows furrowed. “Could there be someone else?”

Xiao Chen said, “Don’t worry, I’ve probably guessed who that aura was from last night. However, if we want to get out smoothly this time, we’ll most likely need to borrow the help of this person. As for Xiao Meng’er … let the Xiao Clan owe me a favor for the time being.”

At the end of his sentence, a cold light flashed in his eyes. Zi Yuan no longer asked. The two of them traveled a few hundred li further. At this moment, an aura gradually approached. It was precisely the aura from last night.

Zi Yuan immediately became alert. At first, the aura was still ten miles away, but in the blink of an eye, it was less than a hundred feet away. Then, a figure landed in front of the two of them.

“Senior, have you finally appeared after following me for so long?”

Xiao Chen’s expression was natural, and his expression did not change. The person in front of him had a thin face, white beard, and a black robe. His body emitted an extremely heavy Yin Qi. It was none other than Tai Yinsi’s master, Patriarch Guiyin.
