Chapter 105: Very Rarely Do I Get To Play For Others

Tian Yi is your name?

Tang Yi did not miss it when Qiu Heng spoke to him.

They had the same given name was this a coincidence or was this fate?

Then Junior Brother Tian, what was it about my performance that did you not find satisfying? she asked him.

Tian Yi looked at her with a strange face. What did he do to get caught up in this? Where did she get this idea of him not finding it not satisfying?

Although he was confused at her actions, he still sort of knew what she was trying to ask.

Your zither playing was not bad---

The muscle on Tang Yis face uncontrollably twitched. Not bad? Just not bad? All she had done was just not bad?!

The audience went into an uproar when they heard that. Not bad?! Their ears were literally getting orgasms from experiencing her zither play and all he said was not bad? If hes not deaf, then who in this world can be considered deaf?!

Little did they know that not bad was already a very good compliment from somebody like him.

Tian Yi ignored the uproar and continued, Its not bad, but what are you confused about? he asked her.

Tang Yi lifted her eyebrows in surprise, Confused? You are saying that I am confused?

He nodded, Your skills are no doubt better than the girls behind you, but if I had to compare you two, then I would say I had gotten more enjoyment from them.

Tang Yi frowned upon hearing that. She was better than her fellow disciples yet he liked their performance better than hers? What was the logic in that?

The girls behind her were a bit shocked when they heard that he enjoyed their performance better than their senior apprentice-sister Tang. That was truly something they had never expected to hear.

Maybe this kid was extremely bad at comparing things? Maybe he's piss poor with his judgment? They could not help but doubt his words.

The audience also could not help but laugh at his words.

Fairy Tang is worse than the others? Are you deaf? Hahaha!

They were indeed worse than Tang Yi, and it was a fact. Yet the girls still frowned upon hearing that. While they were aware of such facts, it still did not feel good to hear such statements. They rather listen to this young man bullshit than hear the audience speaking of facts.

Can you elaborate? What do you mean by that? Tang Yi asked him.

Tian Yi nodded, Their music brought joy, sorrow, excitement, and all sorts of emotions within their notes, yet yours they were nothing but empty notes. No happiness, joy, or excitement could be felt from your notes---

Bullshit! I was excited when I heard Fairy Tangs songs!

Yeah! What empty notes? Your words are empty!

Silence!

Tang Yi shouted, silencing the audience.

A serious expression hung on her fairy-like face, and she continued, Even if what you said is true t-that m-my notes are e-empty how does that make me confused? she had a hard time calling her own notes empty.

Tian Yi shrugged his shoulders at her question, Just a feeling, he said nonchalantly.

...

A vein unknowingly bulged on Tang Yis forehead, she was clearly mad at that half-assed answer.

That answer will not cut it. I played all those songs just for you, and you give me such a half-assed answer? Are you making fun of me? she said.

What?! She played all those songs specifically for him?! How fucking lucky does he have to be?!

The audience began feeling both envy and hatred towards Tian Yi.

Tian Yi did not know whether to laugh or cry. Who had told her to play for him? Definitely not him.

Fairy Tang, do not mind this idiot whose ears are only for display. Your zither play was heavenly and divine, definitely the best of the best. If you claim to be number two under heaven, then nobody will dare to claim number one.

Ah, Fairy Tang, why are you wasting your time and effort on this kid who doesnt even know how to play the zither? If you cannot satisfy him, then who can?

His words are as empty as farts at best.

I could feel confusion in your music, but you do not know why right?

Tian Yi asked the girl sitting in front of him.

I do not recall agreeing to your statement, she replied with a frown.

That is fine too then allow me to show you---

He stopped speaking halfway through and turned silent.

What is it this time? Tang Yi asked him.

Feeling a bit awkward, he said, I do not have my zither with me right now can I borrow yours?

Tang Yi stared at him with wide eyes.

He walked up the stage without a zither on him? What the hell?

Tang Yis gaze fell on her own zither.

This zither has been with her since forever. She does not even remember the last time someone else other than her had touched it. Was she willing to let some Mortal that had even looked down on her borrow it?

Before she could even reply, a low voice came from behind Tian Yi.

U-Umm you can use mine

It was one of the girls on the stage.

Not minding Tang Yi anymore, Tian Yi stood back up and walked to the girl standing on the far right.

Thank you, I will make sure it will be happy before I return it to you, he said.

Huh?

The girls were surprised and confused at his words. Was he talking about the zither being happy or himself? What does he mean by that?

And while Tian Yi did look down on their senior appreciate-sister Tang, he still had said that they were better than her, giving them a somewhat good impression on him. If it were not for that, would this girl even let him touch her zither let alone borrowing it?

The girl carefully held the zither in front of her chest, offering it to Tian Yi.

It was a wooden zither with strange symbols engraved on the top.

He accepted the zither and the moment his skin touched the cold, hard surface

The entire zither began trembling in excitement!

What?! The owner of the zither cried out in shock.

Her zither was actually physically trembling! She has never heard of this phenomenon before let alone witnessing it happen to her zither.

A warm smile appeared on Tian Yis face as he gently brushed the silky strings with his fingers.

7 ripples corresponding to the number of strings on the zither swept through the entire room in that instant.

The moment these 7 ripples appeared, it swept through the room and continued outside, sweeping through the entire Jin Long Continent, creating a phenomenon where both humans and nature itself had turned quiet! The humans halted in their steps, the beasts no longer roamed, nature itself had shut down, there was no longer wind traversing the world, there were no longer waves in the ocean, it was as if time itself had stopped!

The entire Continent was silent at this moment so one can imagine how quiet the red room was currently.

The owner of the zither stared at the zither in Tian Yis hand with wide eyes and a loose jaw.

She did not know her zither was capable of making profound sounds like that!

A fine piece of treasure

Tian Yis murmurs could be heard even from the end of the room because it was just that quiet.

Under the dumbfounded gazes of everybody, Tian Yi walked back to the jade chair and sat down in front of the stupefied Tang Yi.

Looking into her wide eyes that flickered nonstop with shock, he said, Very rarely do I get the chance to play for others and now that I have the chance it would be a shame to just keep it within this room.

Closing his eyes, he takes a deep breath before moving his fingers closer to the still trembling zither strings.

The next second, a massive ripple swept through the Four Continents, the Holy Continent, the entire Mortal's Realm, leaving no corners untouched!
