Chapter 342: Trapped by love (1)
“For the sake of a woman, that woman must be a master of zither.
So, in order to please her, you exhausted all your strength to practice the zither.
Unfortunately, what’s the use of you practicing it? Because you won’t be able to surpass her even if you train for another hundred years. ” Tang Wen said.
“You ...” Shen Wu was furious. He struck out with his palm, and his true energy roared like an Azure Dragon as it charged forward at lightning speed.
Tang Wen stretched out his wings and threw he Tian a few hundred meters away. Then, he floated behind Shen Wu.
Seeing Tang Wen’s wings, Shen Wu was also startled. However, in the next moment, he sneered and turned his palm over.
Immediately, three Dragon shadows floated out and surrounded Tang Wen from the top, middle, and bottom. He Tian drew his big saber.
“Just watch, I can handle him.” Tang Wen sent a voice transmission to he Tian.
His spirit power shot out and stabbed into the three Dragon shadows, directly binding them.
The Dragon Shadow was formed by Zhen Yuan, and its strength reached more than a hundred thousand Jin. The telekinetic threads that only had a binding strength of a few thousand Jin naturally couldn’t bind it.
However, he still managed to drag it back. The Dragon’s Shadow immediately changed its direction, and a few large trees nearby were broken by the Dragon’s Shadow as it roared and fell down.
Seeing that Tang Wen wasn’t caught, Shen Wu was stunned.
In the next moment, he flicked his hand, and his true essence turned into a huge tide that rushed toward Tang Wen.
Tang Wen stood in the middle of the tide. His golden – scaled Jade clothes shone with the light of scales as the tide slid past.
Not only did the Golden Jade robe have the effect of making one look more beautiful, it was also a pretty good defensive treasure.
This was because it was made from the scales of a golden carp that had been around for hundreds of years. Its scales were very smooth.
Shen Wu immediately frowned, and with a spin of his hands, he instantly condensed a true energy ball. If he were to throw it over, it would shake the earth and mountains.
However, at this moment, the poison that the heavenly insect had inflicted on Shen Wu’s body had already started to take effect.
Shen Wu felt dizzy, and before he could release his Qi of true essence, his entire body went limp.
“You ... You’re despicable!” Shen Wu pointed at Tang Wen and said angrily.
“What do you mean by despicable?” Tang Wen asked.
“You used poison, you definitely used poison.” Shen Wu said.
“Who made the rule that we can’t use poison in a fight? You can use Dragon Shadow true energy, so what’s so strange about me using poison?
It was just that their attack methods were different.
Could it be that if you use Dragon Shadow true energy to kill people, then you’re not despicable, and I have to stand there and let you kill me?
Just like that big tree, broken into pieces?” Tang Wen asked coldly.
“Sigh ... I, Shen Wu, have failed. Just kill me.” Shen Wu’s face suddenly turned ashen, and he sat on the ground like a dead man.
He looked at the sky listlessly, as if his soul had left his body.
“It’s difficult to be water once the ocean is vast. There are no clouds except for Mount Wu.” Tang Wen said.
“How do you know I like her? Could it be that you’re also an admirer of hers, and that’s why you’re here to kill me?” Shen Wu said.
“For a martial artist in the gathering Yuan state to be so thin and you are not sick, there is only one reason. You have a knot in your heart.
You only know hate when love is strong, and you’ve always hated. And you’ve been practicing the zither all this time, which means that the other party is also a zither expert.
But you’ve been practicing and hiding on this remote island. You want to master your zither skills before you go back to her.
Unfortunately, you’ve never been able to get your wish. All these years, you’ve been so focused on the zither that you’ve almost become a zither fanatic.
So, you’re not interested in anything else.
Even when you see the people you have been with die under the enemy’s knife, you are still indifferent. ” Tang Wen said.
He Tian was dumbfounded. How did old master know so much? It was as if he could read people’s minds ...
“You understand the human heart.” Shen Wu said.
“So, in this world, only I can help you.” Tang Wen said.
“It’s useless! I made a bet with her that she would only accept me if my zither skills surpassed hers. ” Shen Wu shook his head.
“But you’ll never be able to surpass her in your entire life.” Tang Wen shook his head.
“I know, I know that I will never be able to surpass her ...” Shen Wu looked up and sighed, tears flowing down his cheeks.
“That’s because you didn’t touch me. ” Tang Wen said.
“You have a way?” Shen Wu turned his head and looked straight at Tang Wen.
“Of course, my zither skills can’t surpass hers. Although I’ve never seen her, I believe that her zither skills are absolutely superb.” Tang Wen shook his head.
“Of course. Otherwise, why would he be called the ten – fingered demonic zither?” Shen Wu said.
“Ten ... Ten – fingered zither demon.” He Tian suddenly called out.
“It seems that you’ve heard of her.” Shen Wu said.
“A friend of mine once said that if anyone in the world wanted to discuss the zither Dao, it had to be the ten – fingered zither demon yang susu.” He Tian nodded.
“Yang susu, why haven’t I heard of such a famous person?” Tang Wen asked.
“In the capital, she is the most famous master of Paladin Academy in great Chu.
It was said that when the strings were pulled, the sound waves could blow up a huge rock a mile away.
Back then, she had defeated eight experts with the power of a zither, and all eight of them were at the perfected Qi cultivation realm.
That was three to four years ago. She was only twenty – eight then. ” He Tian said.
“So, I know that I have no hope.” Shen Wu sighed.
“You know there’s no hope, but you’re still trying.
That’s why you’re stuck in the quagmire of love, unable to extricate yourself.
Therefore, you’ve become a zither fanatic and made yourself look neither human nor ghost.
If this continues, you’ll definitely die from exhaustion. ” Tang Wen said.
“If she dies, then so be it. Without her, what’s the point of living?” Shen Wu said.
Tang Wen didn’t say anything. He took out an electronic piano from his Void Bag and started playing.
Shen Wu’s face was covered in tears as he played the plum blossom three times.
“Is it nice?” Tang Wen asked.
“It’s so nice. There’s such beautiful music in this world. ” Shen Wu nodded.
“Hehe, that’s why there’s more than just the zither in this world. We can’t surpass her in music, but other instruments can. ” Tang Wen said with a smile.
“But she said that only those who are better at the zither than her can do it.” Shen Wu shook his head.
“Why only the zither? As long as we can find a musical instrument that surpasses her, we win.
It was like a competition of martial arts. You used a sword, and I used a saber. Could you say that your saber was better than my sword?
Only the winner has the right to speak. ” Tang Wen said.
“You seem to have a point.” Shen Wu was startled for a moment before nodding.
“We still have another advantage.” Tang Wen said.
“What advantage?” Shen Wu stood up and quickly asked.
“Our score is good. If our score is beautiful, then yang susu will definitely like better scores. We can attract her with just the score.” Tang Wen said.
“But where can we find beautiful music scores in this world? all the Masters who can compose music are her friends.” Shen Wu said.
“Shen Wu, Shen Wu, the master composer is standing right in front of you, but you’re ignoring him.” Tang Wen immediately started playing the piano again. He played a section of high mountains and flowing water, and the crazy dance of the golden snake.
Just like that, they took turns and played five to six songs at once, leaving Shen Wu intoxicated.
“Master, disciple Shen Wu greets master. Master, please help me.” Shen Wu was really infatuated as he kowtowed.
He Tian was dumbfounded when he saw that a powerful martial artist in the gathering Yuan state wanted to take Tang Wen as his master.
“Alright, alright, I’ll take you in. However, I don’t have the time to teach you music right now. ” Tang Wen said.
“Disciple is not in a hurry. I will first compensate shizun and settle the matters on Qilin Island.” Shen Wu’s eyes glowed as if he had a second spring.
“Alright, eat this first to nourish your body.” Tang Wen took out the spirit essence and dripped a small drop.
“What is this?”
“Spirit marrow, eat it. Once you eat it, you will have more energy. Then we can talk about the big things.”
Shen Wu didn’t say anything else and drank it.
The Empress closed her eyes and regulated her breathing. After a few hours, her skin and muscles actually showed vitality, as if she had changed into a different person. He Tian, who was watching from the side, was amazed.
“Master, although I rarely participate in the island’s matters, I’m still a little worried. However, the leaders of the Qilin Island are all my disciples. I’ll immediately gather them to pay respects to Grand Master. ” Shen Wu said.
“You even took in a disciple. It seems that you’re not just a Qin fanatic.” Tang Wen laughed.
“Hehe, I have to get a few people to help me run errands.
They were all half – baked monks, and their own skills were not weak, but they were convinced by me later.
If they are willing to take me as their master, all the people on the Qilin Island will listen to them. ” Shen Wu laughed drily.
Not long after, three mature young men hurried over.
Tang Wen glanced at them and found that all three of them had the strength of a peak Xiantian expert. He had picked up a few good Grand – Disciples.
“Cui Sheng, Zhan Hong, Hong Yu, the three of you come and pay your respects to Grand Master.” Shen Wu said.
“Greetings, Grand Master!” The three of them were also stunned when they saw Tang Wen. Wasn’t their Grandmaster too young?
However, since their master had already told them, the three of them did not dare to ask and could only lower their heads and bow.
“Hahaha, good, good, good. These three disciples of yours are all pretty good.
As a Grandmaster, I can’t let you down too much. It’s your first time meeting a Grandmaster.
I’ll give each of you a fruit and eat it. ” Tang Wen touched his featherless chin and smiled. He took out three Vermillion Fruit Kings.
The three of them looked at Shen Wu, not daring to take it.
“This is the Vermilion Fruit King! Quickly take it and eat it. This is Grandmaster’s way of training you. ” Shen Wu said, his heart filled with shock.
This person was too awesome. What spirit marrow? what Vermillion Fruit King? it was as if he was throwing out these extremely rare treasures like candy.
Below them, true energy was surging. Tang Wen had set up a spirit gathering array around them, which shocked Shen Wu again.
After another few hours, the thick fog dispersed. As expected, the three Grand – Disciples stepped into the early stage of the yuan cultivation realm at the same time.
“Thank you, Grand Master!” This time, the voices of the three people were much louder than before.
“Since you’ve accepted it, I’ll teach you a low grade golden class technique, Swimming Dragon. Shen Wu, you can learn it as well. ” Tang Wen said.
Shen Wu nodded and entered the formation. Tang Wen’s spiritual force flicked out to receive them. At midnight, the strength imparting was completed.
Shen Wu had actually entered the middle stage of element gathering tier. Tang Wen did not even need to show his face. His three Grand – Disciples had already taken care of everything.
Tang Wen took out the artillery, bulletproof vests, food tents, and other things from the void Bag. They piled up like a small mountain, and his three Grand – Disciples and one disciple were all dumbfounded.
“Master, could this be the legendary mountain moving technique?” Shen Wu asked with a trembling voice.
“No.” Tang Wen said.
“What’s that?” Hong Yu could not help but ask.
“A Void Bag.” Tang Wen said.
“The legendary interspatial bag?” Shen Wu said.
“Each of you should get one. However, this is a secret of the Tang family. Anyone who leaks it will be killed without mercy!” Tang Wen said. The four of them naturally had no objections. After getting the void Bag, they played with it for a long time.
“At night, our people will secretly come to the island to help you train your soldiers. When the sun nation’s thieves attack the island, we’ll work together from the inside and the outside, killing them until they’ve abandoned their armor. ” Tang Wen said.
“We often fight against Pirates and have some experience.
It was just that there were not many cannons and handguns.
Grand Master, you’ve given us so much now, we don’t have to be afraid of them. ” Cui Sheng said.
“These cannons are one thing, but the forts still need to be built. He Tian, you’ll teach them how to use cement and gravel. ” Tang Wen said.
“Understood.” He Tian nodded.
At night, three hundred Tang family soldiers dived onto the island and began their secret training.
