Chapter 599: Lu Chanzi gets an Opportunity
Compared to the spaceship, a level five flying ship was a turtle.
However, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue didn’t mind.
Rather, they felt it was appropriate to use a slow vessel since it allowed them to see the scenery.
Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen sat on the deck.
Yu Nianzhen held a wine pot in his right hand while Jiang Yue held a guqin.
"What song do you want to listen to?" Jiang Yue asked.
Hearing the question, Yu Nianzhen looked outside the flying ship.
As it happened, they were flying over a mountain and the swordsman was suddenly inspired.
"High mountain and flowing water." He said and Jiang Yue nodded in appreciation.
"Nice pick." He said.
The next moment, a pleasant sound filled the flying ship, startling Lu Chanzi, Lu Jingjing, and the Jin party.
"Grandpa, that music..." Lu Jingjing started but Lu Chanzi raised his hand to stop her.
While listening to the music, Lu Chanzi suddenly saw towering mountains and flowing water.
The mountains were higher than any peaks he had ever seen and the flowing water was the gentlest.
For a single moment, Lu Chanzi was transported to another reality.
When he regained consciousness, his cultivation suddenly broke through to the mid-stage of the nascent soul realm.
"This..." Lu Jingjing was shocked.
To her, the music was pleasant and skilful.
However, her state of mind was not enough to appreciate the subtle dao in the music.
Fortunately, Lu Chanzi had long reached the point of breakthrough.
With just a little encouragement, his cultivation advanced and achieved initial stability.
"Jingjing." Lu Chanzi suddenly called.
"Grandpa..., what’s wrong?"
"Jingjing, no matter who you offend, you must never offend these two people. Do you understand?" The city lord asked with a solemn expression.
"Don’t worry, grandpa. I understand."
When he heard this, Lu Chanzi nodded in satisfaction.
"Follow me." He said, leading the way to the ship deck.
On the deck, Jiang Yue was still playing a guqin and Yu Nianzhen was listening while drinking wine.
Seeing this, Lu Chanzi didn’t dare to interrupt.
Instead, he waited until the song ended before rushing forward.
"Senior, thank you for your assistance." He bowed.
Similarly, Lu Jingjing bowed.
When he saw this, Jiang Yue chuckled.
"I wasn’t playing to help you. I was playing for my lover’s enjoyment."
"I still benefited from the music. Without the enlightenment from senior’s music, I don’t know how long I would have been stuck at the early stage of the nascent soul realm."
"In that case, consider this our compensation for causing trouble for your city lord’s residence."
"The senior has overcompensated." Lu Chanzi insisted.
"Like I said, your breakthrough was incidental to my purpose." Jiang Yue said and turned to Yu Nianzhen.
"What else do you want to listen to?"
"Lament at Changmen palace."
"Okay."
After that, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue formed a habit.
After every song, Jiang Yue would ask for a request and Yu Nianzhen would name a song.
In this way, three days passed in the blink of an eye.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, the flying ship crossed the Cangxing sect’s mountain guarding formation.
"Peak level six formation, not bad." Jiang Yue observed.
"Not as good as the formations you arrange." Yu Nianzhen countered and Jiang Yue burst into amused laughter.
However, he was happy his lover always thought others were not as good as him.
"You always see my good side. I also have shortcomings." Jiang Yue said.
"Shortcomings? How come I have never seen them?"
"My guqin is still a little lacking." Jiang Yue frowned.
Back on Earth, Jiang Yue suddenly thought of trying different musical instruments.
However, this was not because he wanted to change his preference or weapon.
Rather, he thought understanding music from different perspectives would help improve his understanding of the pipa.
Since the pipa was his natal weapon, the better he could play it, the more effective his illusions.
"It makes sense since the guqin is not your primary musical instrument. However, I believe in you. With time, your performance on the guqin may not be inferior to that on your pipa. Yu Nianzhen rubbed Jiang Yue’s hair.
However, Lu Chanzi was not calm.
After enlightenment, he stayed on the deck, hoping for a second opportunity.
Unfortunately, he didn’t get what he wanted.
That said, he didn’t regret his decision to stay.
After all, the senior was extremely talented.
No matter which song he played, the resulting music was like the sound of heaven.
’If the senior is so good with the guqin, how good is he with his primary instrument?’ Lu Chanzi wondered with a trace of curiosity.
However, he was not the senior’s lover and didn’t dare to make any requests.
"Is the senior a formation master?" Lu Jingjing suddenly asked.
Hearing the question, Jiang Yue looked at the girl with a curious expression.
"The little niece is also a formation master?" He asked.
"I am a level three formation master." Lu Jingjing said and proudly raised her chin.
Seeing this, Jiang Yue laughed.
’A level three formation master at the qi transformation realm, she is not bad.’ He thought.
"The art of formations is the best at guarding and killing. Work hard to become an excellent formation master." Jiang Yue encouraged.
"I..." Lu Jingjing started but the flying ship had already come to a stop.
The landing point was the middle of a big square.
At a glance, more than a dozen people were waiting at the square.
However, the people didn’t seem like a welcoming party.
Rather, they looked ready to engage a monstrous enemy.
"Could they be thinking of fighting us?" Jiang Yue asked with an amused expression.
"It seems so." Yu Nianzhen said and Jiang Yue smiled.
"What to do? I am a little looking forward to this."
Hearing this, Yu Nianzhen almost rolled his eyes.
However, he restrained himself and shook his head instead.
"I will leave them to you." The swordsman said and Jiang Yue readily nodded.
