Chapter 104: Say Something... Will You?

An entire minute had passed, yet the heavenly voice was still lingering inside the audiences' head, unwilling to go away.

Not waiting for them to wake up, the veiled figure, Tang Yi, continued speaking, Thank you all for coming today, I know this is sudden and will be hard for many of you to digest, but today will be our last day operating here in the Jin Long Continent.

Her last sentence jolted everybody there awake with even more shock than before.

What?!New novel chapters are published on

They could not help but scream.

Our Sect has been operating within the four Continent since 12 years ago, and after today, we will finally return to the Holy Continent, she continued.

N-N-No way

Sorrow overwhelmed many people there and dozens wanted to cry, but Tang Yis voice was magical, preventing them from bawling their eyes out.

Qiu Heng was the same, he wanted to cry, but an invisible force was preventing him from doing so.

He looked at the girl right behind Tang Yi, the one surnamed Sun, and his eyes turned red.

Xuan Wanshan rolled her eyes at them thinking its an overreaction before ignoring them.

Tian Yi continued to watch with a tranquil expression on his face.

Why?!

Somebody shouted.

Tang Yi shook her head slowly, saying that she is unable to answer that question.

.....

The entire place had instantly turned gloomy, even depressing.

Pulling out a chair made from jade, Tang Yi sits on it and places the zither in her arms onto her lap.

I do not know what else to say, so I will just play a song for you Hopefully listening to this will lessen the sadness within the souls in the room, she said.

Her fingers began moving towards the strings on the zither.

The movements of her hands were slow, yet it looked as if she had suddenly gained two extra arms, making it look as if there were four arms moving at once!

The people rubbed their eyes like washing dishes, but no matter how hard they rubbed, they could still see four arms!

The string on the zither trembled, sending out a ripple that contained a profound note.

Just this one note was already enough to shake the souls of everybody there, forcing them to forget about their sadness.

Tang Yis fingers danced around the strings, sending ripples upon ripples of music, its speed increasing and slowing at random paces, making it a unique pattern.

The audience sat there dumbfounded, not knowing how to react. The girls before her were great, even calling it perfect was not out of stretch. But Tang Yi her mastery in the zither was even higher than perfect! It was so perfect that they did not know how to explain the feeling they were currently experiencing.

It was as if a new kind of feeling was born inside them, one they never knew existed.

...

Tian Yi sat there with a strange look on his face.

Hearing the notes, he was not happy, nor was he feeling sadness he was actually confused.

He could tell that she was indeed more skillful than the previous girls by a large margin, yet he enjoyed the notes created by the previous girls better than her.

Time passed by extremely fast, what had lasted for a good five minutes actually felt like five seconds.

The music stopped, the ripples disappeared, Tang Yis fingers were no longer touching the silk-like strings, and she stood up to bow.

The crowd was quiet after many minutes even after she had finished. They were just that shocked.

Clap. Clap.

Someone finally began clapping, and that person was actually Xuan Wanshan!

Clap. Clap. Clap.

Thunderous claps loud enough to shake the dust off the ceiling resounded in the red room, even penetrating the closed doors and allowing the pedestrians outside to hear it.

Nobody spoke a word, only clapping with all their might.

The audience clapped and clapped, many even began feeling pain because their palms were red from excessive clapping.

The people there were not able to see it, but a gentle smile appeared behind Tang Yis veil.

She swept the audience with her Divine Sense and she was happy because everybody there enjoyed it---

The gentle smile behind her veil suddenly froze.

Eh?

Her attention was on the ordinary-looking young man sitting in the most front row.

He was ordinary in every way, so ordinary that she would have never noticed him if it were not for the fact that he was the only one in the entire room not clapping. Because of that, he stuck out like a sore thumb.

The longer the people clapped the more apparent the frown was on that ordinary young mans face.

Was it not satisfying for him? I-Is that even possible?

The ninth song.

Dont tell me you are really deaf?

The tenth song.

Why the hell are you even here if you are deaf?!

More than a dozen song was played by Tang Yi, surpassing even her fellow disciples in the amount of songs played.

Not only did she play more than them, she was even improving after every song!

Haaah. Haaah.

Tang Yi finally separated her fingers from the zither on her lap and breathed heavily.

....

.......

..........

After they were certain that she was done playing the zither, the entire room was filled with thunderous clapping again.

It was so loud that some could feel their eardrums hurting.... yet they ignored it and continued clapping!

They clapped for so long that some could see blood oozing out of their palms... yet they ignored it and continued clapping!

S-Senior apprentice-sister Tang Y-You

Her fellow disciples were already shocked numb and did not know what to say to her.

The Senior Yao on the top floor was smiling from ear to ear. Even though they were not able to find that person, at least their most prominent disciple was able to take another wide step in her cultivation path!

Why?

An exhausted voice came from behind the veil covering Tang Yi.

Eh? What did senior apprentice-sister Tang say? asked one of the girls.

WHY?!

Tang Yi suddenly shouted, shocking the entire audience into silence.

Why are you not satisfied? Is there something wrong with my zither playing? Do I really suck that much? Why do you look so confused? Who are you? Are you actually deaf? You are deaf, arent you? Yeah, you are definitely deaf, right?

Countless questions echoed within the silent room.

...

Did senior apprentice-sister Tang go crazy?

Her fellow disciples asked each other with Divine Sense.

What nonsense are you talking about?

But what is she doing? Who is she directing these questions to?

Does it look like I can read her mind?

They sent messages with Divine Sense back and forth.

What arent you saying anything?

Tang Yi finally stood up and began walking towards the edge of the stage.

"Why are you not acknowledging me?"

She looked down at the ordinary-looking young man who was only a few feet away from her.

"Am I not worthy enough for your words?"

She suddenly took off her veil, revealing her shockingly beautiful fairy-like face, sending waves upon waves of admiration and love into the males' heart.

"Did I do something to offend you?"

Her emerald colored eyes stared at the young man, ignoring everything else.

Say something... will you?

Her voice was getting lower and lower, yet she continued to ask him questions.

....

Qiu Heng and Xuan Wanshan had strange looks on their face. Was she talking to them? What did they do wrong?

I am talking to you the one with the white robes!

Tang Yi pointed at the one she was referring to, making everybody turn their gazes.

Her finger was pointing to an ordinary-looking young man sitting in the front row.

Xuan Wanshan and Qiu Hengs head slowly turned to the side with stiff movements and stared at the person sitting next to them.

T-Tian Yi? What did you do to her? Qiu Heng asked him in a shaking tone.

Xuan Wanshan did not even bother speaking and directly went for the facepalm while sighing.
