Chapter 5076 Zither Sect, Qin Keqing

chapter 5076 zither sect, qin keqing

this arrogant woman immediately picked at the netherdragon race’s scab, enraging netherdragon wushang.

however, before he could shout, she turned to long chen and bai yingxue, sneering at them as well.

“to be able to stay peaceful even in front of traitors, the dragon race has fallen. they are no longer the great dragon race.”

long chen frowned. just what was this woman thinking? first, she insulted the netherdragon race, and then she insulted the white dragon race?

the arrogant woman surveyed the crowd, her eyes filled with disdain. shaking her head, she declared, “the brahma pill valley claimed that the opening of the heavenly flame devil domain would attract heavenly geniuses—talented individuals capable of discussing the dao with my zither sect. but it seems it’s nothing more than a group of rabble! you aren’t worthy to hear me play my zither!”

with a cold snort, that woman turned and left. liao yuhuang and the others had positioned themselves to perform together, but unexpectedly, that woman walked away.

“senior apprentice-sister keqing, we already told pill valley we would play!” whispered liao yuhuang hastily.

“i don’t need your reminder. zither music is for the refined. what is the point of playing it for a pack of bulls?” that woman retorted dismissively.

swinging her sleeve, she left just like that, leaving the crowd baffled. they didn’t even know what was going on.

“i don’t know about skill, but her temper isn’t small!” long chen remarked, shaking his head as he watched her leave.

liao yuhuang and the others felt embarrassed. the zither sect had arranged with the brahma pill valley to perform three songs here. the zither sect could then use this chance to discuss the dao with the best experts beneath the heavens, which was a rare opportunity for them.

however, their number one master, qin keqing, had insulted them and left as soon as she arrived. the atmosphere was thick with discomfort.

“what kind of crap is that? if she doesn’t want to play, then don’t. no one is forcing her. what’s wrong with that woman? why is she cursing everyone?” finally, someone with a bad temper spoke up.

qin keqing was truly dislikable. although the zither sect was famous, many factions here weren’t part of the human race, so the zither sect’s name couldn’t sway them.

after liao yuhuang and the others were done playing, they put away their zithers and bowed to everyone before gracefully departing. only liao yuhuang stayed behind and approached long chen. she bowed deeply to him alone.

“yuhuang will remember today’s favor. hopefully, i will have a chance to hear sir’s pointers in the future.”

at this moment, countless eyes turned toward long chen, and many of them were filled with jealousy.

after that song, everyone was amazed by liao yuhuang and the others’ talent. they even forgot qin keqing’s rudeness, thinking it was only natural for someone with such skill.

hence, countless people felt jealous to see liao yuhuang being so polite toward long chen. some people glared at him.

long chen smiled slightly. “you are too courteous. your name contains the five notes and twelve scales. your magnanimity proves that you are fit for such a name.”

after saying this, long chen had the urge to slap himself in the face, but it was too late to regret it. liao yuhuang was also surprised. seeing her eye him strangely, long chen hastily added, “my lover has a friend called gong rui! it’s the same kind of meaning as your yuhuang.”

only then did liao yuhuang nod and smile. “how coincidental. you are the second person to praise my name.”

“oh? someone actually said it before me? i wish i could meet them,” long chen said, nodding with apparent interest.

“i’m sorry, but i can’t say his name. i still have matters to attend to. goodbye.” liao yuhuang bowed to him once more before leaving.

long chen’s back was sweaty. when did his mouth become so loose? he had almost exposed himself.

beside him, bai yingxue was gazing at him worshipfully. she hadn’t expected even the zither sect’s experts to be so amazed by him. his learning was truly vast.

“what are you doing?!”

just then, long chen heard a woman’s scream behind him. he turned over, clenching his fists until they creaked.
