The Twins Playing the Flute and Zither
Han Qianshan glanced in the direction Chi Mo had left, scratched his head, and muttered, "What's that kid angry about?"
In Han Qianshan's opinion, Junior Sister Su was the person Young Master Lu liked, and Chi Mo could never be worthy of her. Wasn't it normal for Junior Sister Su to ignore him?
After a while, other top forces in Qin Province also arrived one after another.
The cultivators of Nine Nether Valley arrived amidst dark clouds, all of their disciples clad in black robes.
Unlike normal righteous sects, Nine Nether Valley belongs to the Demonic Sect.
However, disciples of the demonic path are not Evil Cultivators after all. They do not have the destructive power of Evil Cultivators who feed on living beings. They are just more aggressive. Although their relationship with cultivators of the righteous sects is not very good, they are not universally hated.
The leader of the Nine Nether Valley was an old man with black hair and beard and a face full of wrinkles. His expression was rather gloomy. His gaze swept over the cultivators from the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect and other sects, but he showed no expression. He simply landed quietly on a mountain peak, waiting for the secret realm passage to open.
Lu Yang learned from Su Jinxuan's introduction that the old man's name was Zhao Ang, who was notorious throughout Qin Province. In his youth, he had fought his way up the ranks, was extremely bloodthirsty, and had extremely strong combat power. He was a Nascent Soul True Lord was not to be trifled with in the entire Qin Province.
Su Jinxuan found it perfectly reasonable for a Nascent Soul cultivator of this caliber to personally escort her.
After all, Nine Nether Valley has made many enemies outside. If the sect's disciples were to be mobilized in large numbers, the situation would be extremely dangerous without a sufficiently powerful expert to keep them in check.
The disciples of the Crimson Cloud Sect arrived in a flying Law Treasure called a giant gourd filled with medicinal pills.
The Crimson Cloud Sect specializes in Dao of Alchemy and is the wealthiest and most well-connected sect among all the top forces in Qin Province.
The Crimson Cloud Sect has good relations with almost every sect, even the Nine Nether Valley, which is universally disliked, treats the Crimson Cloud Sect with a completely different attitude.
The Nascent Soul Realm elder from the Crimson Cloud Sect responsible for escorting them was a beautiful middle-aged woman. She had a gentle expression and greeted all the Nascent Soul True Lord from various sects with a smile. Even Zhao Ang managed a slight smile and returned the greeting with a cupped hand.
The number of the Crimson Cloud Sect disciples who came to explore the secret realm was less than that of other sects.
After all, the disciples of the Crimson Cloud Sect are not good at combat, and entering the secret realm requires a certain level of combat ability, otherwise there will be danger to their lives.
The last sect is the Heavenly Melody Pavilion.
Heavenly Melody Pavilion also arrived by flying boat. Heavenly Melody Pavilion's flying boat was about the same size as Golden Rainbow Sword Sect's flying boat, but it looked more luxurious, and there were cultivators dancing gracefully on it.
The cultivators of the Heavenly Melody Pavilion specialize in the Way of Music, and are skilled at using musical techniques to fight enemies. They can also use the Way of Music to cleanse their Heart Demons.
Within Qin Province Prefecture, there are several music venues operated by the Heavenly Melody Pavilion, where Heavenly Melody Pavilion cultivators specialize in cleansing others of their Heart Demons in exchange for Spirit Stones, and each session costs a considerable amount.
After all, cleansing Heart Demons is not something that can be done by ordinary means.
For cultivators, Heart Demons are a problem they cannot avoid facing.
The cultivators on the Heavenly Melody Pavilion were mostly handsome men and beautiful women with outstanding temperaments, causing disciples from the other five top forces around them to look on in awe at the beautiful female cultivators dancing gracefully.
Lu Yang glanced at it a few times, and then two messages appeared on the panel.
[Found a stunningly beautiful woman!]
[Found a stunningly beautiful woman!]
Wow, I've found two perfect 10/10 female friends in a row?!
As expected of the Heavenly Melody Pavilion, which has the most female cultivators.
Lu Yang's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately perked up.
If it were just an ordinary beautiful female cultivator, that would be fine, but since it involves a woman, he couldn't help but get excited.
Lu Yang looked around curiously and soon saw two female cultivators in pink dresses at the bow of the ship. One was playing a jade flute and the other was playing a wooden zither. The clear and moving melody spread in all directions, calming people's hearts and gradually immersing them in the music.
The two women were identical, with fair skin, oval faces, beautiful, clear black and white eyes, long, well-defined eyebrows, and rosy lips, making them unforgettable.
As Lu Yang was looking at the two female cultivators, Qin Nanyue's somewhat resentful muttering echoed in his mind, "Oh? Which of our young master Lu has taken a fancy to this time? Could it be the twin beauties playing the flute and zither earlier? They are indeed quite pitiful~"
Lu Yang was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and saw that Mu Yunxue and the others were all looking at him.
Mu Yunxue's expression didn't change much, Jiang Shiqing seemed eager to try, Lin Ying's eyes held a mixture of helplessness and amusement, Qin Nanyue gritted her teeth, and Su Jinxuan also looked at Lu Yang, but when Lu Yang looked over, she looked away.
Even with Lu Yang's thick skin, he felt a little embarrassed and his face flushed.
He coughed lightly and explained, "I just feel that the cultivators of the Heavenly Melody Pavilion seem to be very proficient in the art of music; the music is quite beautiful."
"Yes, yes, someone's harem is lacking in singers and dancers, so you want someone to eat some fruit and watch a dance, right?" Qin Nanyue looked at Lu Yang with a half-smile.
Lu Yang glared at Qin Nanyue, a little embarrassed and angry, and sneered, "You, Nanyue, how dare you tease your own husband like that? Has it been too long since I dealt with you? Fine, fine, after this secret realm, I'll show you what's what!"
Upon hearing Lu Yang's words, Qin Nanyue immediately recalled the various experiences that had previously thrilled and terrified her. Her delicate body trembled, and she silently took two steps behind Lin Ying, as if Lin Ying could lend her a hand.
When Lin Ying saw Qin Nanyue walk up behind her, she panicked and quickly waved her hand, saying, "It's not my fault!"
Are you kidding me?
After her breakthrough, she was initially quite confident, thinking that with her improved cultivation, she could at least barely withstand Lu Yang's favor. But now, just thinking about it makes her scalp tingle.
She didn't want to run into trouble at this time.
Qin Nanyue's eyes widened in disbelief when she saw Lin Ying so quickly sever ties. She looked at Lin Ying with disbelief and whispered, "Wow! Yingying! Aren't we still best friends?! You were the one who asked me to help you before! Now that this pervert is bullying me, aren't you going to help me?"
Lin Ying felt a little guilty, then, as if remembering something, she glanced at her and muttered, "Even if I didn't say anything, you wouldn't have come to help me?"
Qin Nanyue, recalling her previous situation, gave an awkward laugh.
Then she looked at Lu Yang pitifully and said, "I'm sorry, Lu Yang, I was wrong!"
Seeing that Qin Nanyue gave in so quickly, Jiang Shiqing chuckled and said, "Nanyue, why didn't you hold out a little longer?"
She actually wanted to see Nanyue being bullied by the young master.
Qin Nanyue rolled her eyes at Jiang Shiqing. This girl was simply a troublemaker, and she had also become corrupted by Lu Yang, making her extremely perverted.
Lu Yang sighed softly and said, "I still prefer your unruly self from earlier. Why don't you revert to your old self?"
Qin Nanyue snorted softly, turned her head away from Lu Yang, and completely ignored his words.
Lu Yang shook his head helplessly, then glanced in the direction of the Heavenly Melody Pavilion, thinking about how to find an opportunity to get their contact information.
Of course, Lu Yang didn't necessarily have to have anything happen between them. As long as they met his criteria for a confidante, he could get their contact information and receive the first wave of rewards.
Just like Qing Luo and Shen Hongyu, he only added their communication marks and received the first wave of friend-adding rewards, and then never contacted them again.
Even with Xu Youling, Lu Yang only took the opportunity to deepen his relationship with her.
Now, he tends to let things take their natural course rather than deliberately doing anything to increase his favorability with any female cultivator who fits his ideal woman's criteria.
He already has so many women around him; he'd be better off focusing his energy on nurturing these women.
