Chapter 909: Qin Qin takes a Master

The men around Bi Jian all began to breathe heavily when they heard this . Their glances toward the Flame City that was still under construction no longer possessed any fear, now replaced by an intense greed .

“Prince Bi Jian, if the protector clan and Mercenary City really won’t be interfering, what else do we have to fear?” One of the middle-aged men immediately said excitedly .

Even with the entire Tian Yuan Continent in perspective, a city completely made out of tungsten alloy like Flame City was enough to make everyone green with envy . Let alone hermit clans with Saint Rulers, even ancient clans that possessed Saint Kings would drool at it . The reason why they never dared to move against the mercenaries was all because they feared the protector Changyang clan and Mercenary City . If it were not for these two powerful organizations supporting them, the mercenaries definitely would not have the power to keep such a large tungsten alloy mine in possession .

“Alright, as long as the Flame Mercenaries doesn’t receive any other powerful support, we, the Apocalypse Mercenaries, will also take part . ”

Afterward, many of them expressed their opinions . They were each a captain of huge mercenary groups, all with at least a thousand or even thousands of years of history . Although they were only Heaven Saint Masters, there were many former captains that had stepped down . There were some Saint Rulers among them .

Most of the captains were greatly attracted by Flame City, so they all signed up for the operation to take it . Only a few of them were left hesitating and did not plan to participate .

Bi Jian looked at them with some cold intent, before looking toward Flame City once again . He said, “The city should be complete in another year’s time . When it’s complete, it’ll be time for us to take over it . I’ll invite my father and a great elder of the Yiyuan sect to personally form a Space Gate when the time comes and deliver your groups in from several hundred kilometers away . ”

“That would be fantastic . With the help from the two esteemed seniors, it’ll be too easy for our people to get here . ” The mercenary captains all revealed happy expressions .

Beyond the continent, the Heavenly Enchantress currently sat on the edge of a cliff at the very top of Three Saint Island . She had placed the simple Zither of the Demonic Cry on a flat, smooth surface, gently playing the strings with her white and elegant fingers . It produced a pleasant sound .

She was not wearing her veil, revealing her beauty that even the sky seemed to envy . Her hair fluttered gently in the slight breeze beside her ears, covering up a small portion of her face . It only amplified her beauty .

The zither notes seemed to contain an enchanting, sagely tune, reverberating in the surroundings . It was filled with a sorrowful, miserable feeling that was able to influence the emotions of people and make them sad .

The notes echoed gently through the area . All the small creatures who heard the sound quieted down, each and everyone stopping their foraging for food . They would lie down on the ground, listening quietly to the music that seemed to be the most beautiful tune in the world . The sadness within it even made some of the creatures tear up and cry .

“What’s with master? Why is she sad for no reason?” Xiao Yue glanced toward the Heavenly Enchantress’ location with suspicion . She was filled with doubt .

“I can feel that master seems to be very sad and very miserable . It’s so weird . Why does master feel like this?” Xiao Qian also said doubtfully as she blinked her bright eyes . They were baffled by why the Heavenly Enchantress would feel like this with no evident reason .

The sad music gradually stopped . The Heavenly Enchantress had stopped playing the zither . She placed her hands gently on the zither strings, gazing lifelessly at where the sea and sky met . Her face was a mix of emotions .

“Sigh . ” The Heavenly Enchantress produced a long sigh and mumbled, “Do I hate you, or do I not?” She was currently strewn between different emotions .

Suddenly, her eyes narrowed . She suddenly looked into the distance and with a gentle motion of her hands, she immediately ripped open space . It quickly formed a Space Gate . Through the gate, a huge and boundless continent could be seen . It was the Tian Yuan Continent .

The Heavenly Enchantress disappeared through the Space Gate, having already traveled to the distant Tian Yuan Continent .

Within the Tianqin clan of Walaurent City in the Zhuya Kingdom, a young lady current sat all by herself in a pavilion . She played the zither, producing beautiful music which drifted through the garden gently .

Although Qin Qin’s zither had yet to reach the level where it could control the emotions of people, it possessed the power to influence and affect people’s feelings . It could make them become unwillingly intoxicated by her zither notes .

Qin Qin’s zither seemed exactly like the Zither of the Demonic Cry used by the Heavenly Enchantress . They were of the same color, size and had the same number of strings . It seemed like the real thing .

“Master Jian Chen, just where are you? Are you still well?” Qin Qin could not help but imagine Jian Chen’s handsome, determined face . She was filled with a deep reminiscence, and perhaps because of her emotions, the music she played possessed a sliver of longing and concern .

“Qin’er, you’re playing here again!” A heavy voice sounded from behind her . The patriarch of the clan had arrived before her, staring at her with a smile .

Qin Qin said nothing . She did not stop the gentle stroking of her fingers as if she had not even heard the voice behind her .

“Qin’er, your marriage with the first young master of the Zhuyun clan is in three days . Why don’t you go and make some preparations,” said the patriarch with a smile .

The music suddenly stopped . Qin Qin said with a gentle but resolved voice, “Father, I don’t want to marry . ”

“Qin’er, you’re not young anymore . It’s about time you marry . It’s a pity that you can’t cultivate, so your life is only as long as normal people . Otherwise, your father would not force you like this,” said the patriarch . He too was filled with helplessness .

“But I don’t like the first young master of the Zhuyun clan . Does father want to force me into marrying someone I don’t love?” Qin Qin’s voice was filled with pain .

“Sigh . ” The patriarch produced a long exhale . He did not know what to say in this moment .

At this very moment, a vast pressure suddenly appeared . It enveloped the entire clan . Before this pressure, all the guards of the clan felt like a boulder had come crashing down on them . It was even difficult for them to remain standing and they were now all incapacitated . Even the Earth Saint Masters were the same, immobilized by the pressure .

In the entire clan, the only person who was unaffected was Qin Qin .

At this moment, a veiled, purple-dressed woman descended from the sky . She seemed like a fairy that came from heaven . She was filled with a dignified, divine, and consecrated aura .

The woman carried a zither . She stopped three meters above in the air, staring at Qin Qin with the only thing revealed—her emotionless eyes . She said, “Are you willing to take me as your master?”

The patriarch of the Tianqin clan had been bound by frozen space unknowingly . He stared at the mysterious woman in shock as his emotions churned . He struggled to speak .

Qin Qin stared at the woman in shock, before locking onto the zither in the woman’s arms . It was exactly the same as the zither she used .

“A- a- are you the Heavenly Enchantress?” Qin Qin immediately cried out as she identified the woman through the Zither of the Demonic Cry .

The Heavenly Enchantress nodded slightly and said calmly, “You have drawn me here with your zither music . We’re fated to meet . Are you willing to take me as your master?”

“I’m willing, I’m willing . Disciple Qin Qin pays respects to master . ” Qin Qin agreed hurriedly . She liked playing the zither, while the Heavenly Enchantress was equivalent to the god of zithers . She had once dreamed about becoming a disciple of hers, so now that the opportunity had presented itself, how could she let it go?”

“You will need to come with me if you accept . You will go far beyond the continent for cultivation . Are you certain?” asked the Heavenly Enchantress .

Qin Qin hesitated slightly . A strong unwillingness to part appeared on her face, but her eyes became determined soon after, “Disciple is willing to leave the clan and follow master to beyond the continent . However, disciple would like master to give disciple the chance to bid farewell to her family . ”

The pressure from the Heavenly Enchantress’ body had already disappeared, freeing the people of the clan from their bindings .

The patriarch in the pavilion bowed toward the Heavenly Enchantress politely, before turning to Qin Qin . He said, “Qin’er, are you really going to be leaving the clan?”

Qin Qin nodded resolutely . “Father, you know that I can’t cultivate and that I only like to play the zither . Only by following master can my fate be changed . ”

The patriarch pondered in silence before exhaling deeply . “Alright then . Qin’er, go without worry . Whenever you have time, you need to come back and visit your father frequently . As for the marriage with the young master of the Zhuyun clan, father will talk to them about it and cancel it . "

At this very moment, a large group of people rushed over from the surroundings . The person in front was the young master of the clan, Qin Xiao .

Qin Qin immediately informed them of the matter that she had taken on the Heavenly Enchantress as her master, before bidding farewell to them . She knew that once she left, she would not be returning anytime soon . Afterward, it would be a journey of tens of millions of kilometers . Even when Saint Rulers hurried without any sleep or rest, it would take them over a month of travel .

“Sister, brother respects your choice . In the future, brother will definitely become a Heaven Saint Master and come looking for you in the sea . ” Qin Xiao’s eyes were filled with tears . He was extremely unwilling to part with Qin Qin .

Qin Qin’s eyes also glimmered with tears . She said, “Brother, when you see young master Jian Chen again, please give him this drawing . ” Qin Qin pulled out a piece of paper from within her wide sleeves, before slowly opening it . To no surprise, the drawing was of Jian Chen . It was him wielding the Light Wind Sword, in a sword dance all by himself . His posture with the sword was sharp, as if every strike was lethal . It was extremely realistic .
