Chapter 1699 - 1699 One in a Million

1699 One in a Million

Chu Liuyue was shocked and immediately became alert!

She knew how terrifying the zither sound was. At that time, she was outside the wall and directly vomited blood, let alone now.

The two of them were so close. The only thing she could do was to endure it!

Besides, according to what Senior Ah Jing said, I have to understand the tune if I want to merge the two music scores.

Chu Liuyue took a deep breath to calm herself down. Then, as the zither sound was heard, she raised her hand and reached toward the book.

But the moment her fingertips touched the sides of the transparent pages, the book suddenly flew up!

Hula!

Chu Liuyue instinctively looked over, and she saw countless transparent pages falling everywhere!

That book actually fell apart like that!

At that moment, all she could see were iridescent and transparent pages! They landed at every corner of the space in a messy and causal manner, almost filling up the whole area.

Chu Liuyue looked over, and the rays of light shone brightly everywhere! However, this scene caused her to be extremely uneasy.

F

“Actually, that music score has only three pieces. Other than one of them being real, the remaining pages in the booklet are all fake. If you want to merge the two torn pieces of music scores, the first step is to find the true one in this pile of at least 10,000 pages.”

Ah Jing’s voice was nonchalant and relaxed, yet it was akin to thunder beside Chu Liuyue’s ears! It exploded and caused her heart to shake!

Out of the thousands of pages, only one was real?! How long do I have to search?

The key was that she didn’t even know how to differentiate between the true and fake ones.

“Oh, you actually don’t have to worry about this. The first music score is with you and has already recognized you as its owner. It’ll be much simpler if you’re looking for the second piece. However, the difference between the music scores is very small, so you must take a good look at every piece.”

“Most of these music scores are fake, but looking at each one requires a large amount of force and energy. With your current skills… you probably can read a piece in three days…” This was also the reason why he said that she needed a hundred years to complete the task.

Chu Liuyue’s eyelids twitched harshly. One piece in three days… There were at least 10,000 here! Who knows when I have to read them till? Not to mention that this is just ‘the first step.’

Facing Chu Liuyue’s silence, Ah Jing thought for a while and comforted, “It’s okay. After looking at it for a long time, you’ll get used to it. Your reading speed will then become faster.”

With his identity, status, and personality, it was rare for him to comfort someone. If it weren’t because Chu Liuyue was the only owner of these music scores, he definitely wouldn’t be so patient and harmonious.

However, this sentence clearly didn’t comfort Chu Liuyue much.

She closed her eyes, rubbed her temples, and fell silent for a while before she accepted reality. Since I have already reached this step, it is impossible to turn around. Then… I just hope that I can finish this as soon as possible!

An idea popped up in her mind as she recalled the torn piece of paper.

Probably because it felt the existence of the second music score, it didn’t turn into a water droplet again. Instead, it maintained the state of torn paper and quietly floated in her dantian.

The rays of light glowed, and the energy flowed!

Chu Liuyue lightly spat out and reached her hand in.

A nearby transparent piece of paper floated to her hands—the first piece!

At this time, the zither sound clearly landed in her ears!

The killing intent was biting cold!

…

Some mountain miles away, there was lush greenery with other hills surrounding it.

The intense Heaven and Earth Force caused it to be more fairy-like.

The tallest mountain peak was sharp and beautiful. At first glance, it really looked like a paradise.

On the mountain, there were many stairs that led to the top.

A pile of rocks gathered and formed a door on the mountaintop, and a piece of wood was hung on said door: Wugou Peak!

This was the most distinguished existence out of the 18 mountain peaks in the Nan family! Almost all the distinguished people of the Nan family were gathered here.

Normal people didn’t even have the right to come near to this place, let alone go up the mountain.

On Wugou Peak, many intricate yards had people of distinguished statuses in the Nan family.

At the top was a magnificent building.

At this point, a tall and burly figure stood before the door and looked afar. That person was the Nan family’s master—Nan Yifan!

He looked like he was in his forties. Even though time had left traces on his face, one could still see his handsome appearance in his youth.

His purple robe and his entire aura made him look even more high and mighty.

He stood there and looked afar as if he were waiting for something.

“Master, Eldest Young Master and Second Missy haven’t sent a message back. I’m afraid it won’t happen today. Why don’t you go back and rest first?” advised an elder, who looked like a slave, behind Nan Yifan.

“I know.” Nan Yifan nodded. “But they did go on this trip for quite some time. I do miss Yiyi a little.”

Thinking about it, Yiyi had never left his side for so long.

“I wonder… if it’s successful.”

After all, it wasn’t a small matter. It was impossible for him not to be worried.

The old slave smiled, and his old eyes squinted. “With Eldest Young Master and the two elders around, Master, you don’t have to be worried. Besides, Second Missy has always been smart and agile. Isn’t the mission as easy as ABC to Second Missy? You don’t have to worry.”

Hearing him say this, Nan Yifan’s face revealed a delighted and doting smile.

He only had this one daughter who was born pretty and talented, so he naturally doted on her. This time, it was one of the rare times he was hard on Nan Yiyi. But at the end of the day, it was still for her own good.

Even though this child was still very upset with him because of this, when she was more mature in a few years, she should be able to understand his intentions.

“I hope so.” As Nan Yifan spoke, he retracted his gaze and planned to turn around to enter the house.

But the moment he took a step out, he suddenly felt something, and his expression changed drastically!

At the side, the old slave immediately detected that something was amiss and concernedly asked, “Master, what’s wrong?”

He had followed Nan Yifan for many years and rarely saw him show such an expression.

Nan Yifan clenched his fists, and there seemed to be waves crashing in his eyes. “Yiyi’s aura suddenly disappeared!

Once he said this, the old slave’s expression instantly changed. “How can this be?”

Nan Yifan rapidly opened the door to enter. That elder immediately followed and locked the door behind him.

After entering, Nan Yifan took out a piece of jade pendant. On it, four sparks floated lightly.
