As soon as everyone sensed the shaking, their expressions changed dramatically. But the shaking soon stopped. Supreme Elder Qingwei widened his eyes and said, "What's going on? Could something have happened outside?"
"Impossible, right? Even when the interface shifted, it didn't make this much noise..." Soft Red Maiden was startled as well, while Shandao remained expressionless, as though nothing had happened.
"Perhaps it was merely a change in the interface. This place is actually a forbidden-law space opened by a treasure, so nothing should have gone wrong." Qingweixin spoke up. Everyone quickly began drawing lots to divide the treasures, afraid that something like Li Poxiao suddenly smashing the treasures would happen again. That would be far too unfair.
After the treasures had been divided, Qingweixin turned to me with a mischievous smile. "Big Brother Xia, Sect Master Liyu doesn't understand music, but I know a little about it. You were able to repay Sect Master Liyu's enmity with kindness, so... I'd like you to help me make a musical artifact. Would that be all right?"
The moment I heard that, I knew the little girl was jealous. Ordinary treasures were mostly dispensable to me anyway. If I could use them to win over friends and preserve a bond, I was generally quite willing to give them away. Human connections mattered far more than material things, and Qingweixin was the one asking for it, so I said, "Sure. What kind of musical artifact would you like? Do you have anything particular in mind?"
Qingweixin pretended to ponder deeply before finally saying playfully, "I've studied all eight types of music—metal, stone, earth, leather, silk, wood, gourd, and bamboo. I can play any instrument made from materials like those very well, so no matter what you make, Big Brother Xia, I'll like it."
