Chapter 659 - 658
Huo Yuanzhen waved her hand casually, and an ancient zither appeared before her.
Seated with her legs crossed, Huo Yuanzhen meditated for a long time before she stretched out a pair of jade hands and placed them on the zither. Delicate fingers strummed the strings, and the beautiful sound of the zither immediately spread out. These notes were precisely the ten pieces Su Yang had just written.
The music was graceful and delightful, yet it was confined to this room. A ring of purple light enveloped the room, sealing the sound within and preventing it from escaping.
As Huo Yuanzhen played faster and faster, the air within the room began to pulsate. That air slowly condensed, and Spiritual Energy gathered, forming visible musical notes that filled the entire room.
Suddenly, the music from Huo Yuanzhen’s hands became intense, and the notes also rapidly oscillated. Fortunately, the surrounding purple glow pressed down quickly, containing the musical notes within it.
However, this situation did not last for long. As the music from Huo Yuanzhen became more intense and the notes oscillated more violently, the purple light eventually shattered under the force of the notes, dispersing completely.
At this moment, Huo Yuanzhen timely ceased playing, and the music stopped abruptly. The musical notes in the air, however, lingered for a long while.
Huo Yuanzhen stood up, looking at the musical notes that filled the air, and nodded, "Just as I suspected, this lad’s compositions are not ordinary pieces; they are Immortal melodies that can be used for cultivation. They can even enhance my cultivation level, indeed extraordinary. Had I known this, I should have asked for a hundred pieces instead of just ten."
Su Yang naturally did not know that it was Huo Yuanzhen who had asked for the musical pieces, not Huo Qianfang.
Ever since Huo Yuanzhen last heard the songs Su Yang had written for Ying’er, she had a faint feeling that these compositions were special. However, without seeing the actual pieces, merely listening to the performance, she was unable to discern their true intricacy. Therefore, she had been manipulating Huo Qianfang’s spirit all this time to coerce Su Yang into parting with the pieces.
Though Huo Qianfang was outward in personality, she was certainly no match for Huo Yuanzhen. Relying solely on Huo Qianfang, it would naturally have been impossible to force Su Yang to live in the same room with her and then use this situation to pressure Su Yang into composing for her.
