Peerless God Emperor

Emperor Zi seemed to be biased towards the other party.    

Although Emperor Zi did not immediately reject him, it was not set in stone. A change could happen at any time, and this, was obviously not the result he wanted.    

He hoped that Emperor Zi would give him a hand. In this way, he would have a greater hope of getting a higher ranking from the battles of trials, if he only relied on his foster father's strength, then maybe it would not be enough. He wanted it to be a bit safer.    

He did not have much fear towards his own strength. Other than the top prodigies raised by the Nine Saints Island, he did not fear the people from the other islands.    

"Qin Zhu, you leave first. I still have something to discuss with Donghuang Yu." Emperor Zi said as he looked at Qin Zhu.    

"Donghuang Yu?" Hearing the name, the disciples of the Qianqin Mountain and Qin Zhu trembled, Qin Zhu could not help but look at Qin Xuan in disbelief.    

This person's surname was the Eastern Emperor.    

He came from the Eastern Emperor?    

Qin Xuan's expression was incomparably calm. He took a glance at Emperor Zi and immediately guessed Emperor Zi's intentions. Emperor Zi was telling him his identity and warning him not to think any further.    

Qin Zhu did not inquire Emperor Zi whether or not he truly came from the Eastern Emperor, and since Emperor Zi had deliberately mentioned this person's name, then it had already contained some hidden meaning.    

Even if he was not from the main bloodline of the Eastern Emperor, he was probably related to the Eastern Emperor too.    

Qin Zhu turned and walked out of the Pure Heart Palace, his bright and resplendent eyes flashed with a strange light, no wonder why he was so arrogant and haughty, acting like a great roc in the clouds, hating that the sky was too low, and not willing to fly.    

So it turned out that the Eastern Emperor's bloodline flowed inside.    

It seemed that he couldn't underestimate this person. He had to pay more attention to him, as there wasn't a single person from Eastern Emperor that was as simple as that.    

"Donghuang Yu." At this moment, Yuan Shan's face was ashen, devoid of any color. His heart trembled violently, feeling as if everything that had just happened had been a dream. It gave him an illusion that was not real.    

The one who defeated him, was it someone from the Eastern Emperor?    

No wonder he was so domineering. Just by standing there and not moving, he was able to instantly kill him.    

When he thought about how he had mocked and ridiculed Donghuang Yu before, and how he claimed that he was extraordinary, he only felt that he was so ridiculous. Most likely, in's eyes, he was just a small clown who did not even bother to take action.    

Qianqin Mountain and his group left the Pure Heart Palace, and then directly left Ziyun House, not staying for long.    

Inside the Heart Cleansing Hall, only Emperor Zi, Xi Yue and Qin Xuan were left.    

"Donghuang Yu, have you brought my book?" Emperor Zi smiled at Qin Xuan, and his gaze was especially casual and gentle.    

"I've brought it." Qin Xuan waved his palm upwards, and a ray of spatial light flashed across the spatial ring. Soon after, five books appeared in his hands, and Qin Xuan handed the books over to Emperor Zi.    

But, Emperor Zi did not accept it.    

Qin Xuan's brows twitched, and looked at Emperor Zi with a bit of astonishment, not knowing what Emperor Zi meant by this.    

"Play a song with me first. If you're still not good enough and don't meet my expectations, you can continue to learn when you get back." Emperor Zi spoke indifferently, as if she had only said something extremely ordinary.    

Xi Yue's beautiful eyes flashed with splendor when she heard Emperor Zi's words. She had followed her master for so many years, but she had never seen her master lend her zither book to anyone, nor did she ever care about a junior so much. It seemed that her master really valued this Donghuang Yu!    

Could it be that Master wished to borrow Donghuang Yu's hand and establish a relationship with the Eastern Emperor?    

Xi Yue was only a maid and had lived in the Profound Moon Island since she was young. Her horizons were limited, so she could only think of this point.    

"Alright, then I'll play a song to embarrass senior. Senior, please give me a few pointers." Qin Xuan cupped his fists towards Emperor Zi, his expression extremely serious.    

Qin Xuan's actions caused the expression in Emperor Zi's eyes to become somewhat shocked. He could clearly feel that when the matter regarding the zither technique was brought up, Donghuang Yu's attitude seemed to have changed, as if he was very concerned about it.    

Qin Xuan took out the zither he had been training in for the past few days. He had bought this guqin from Bamboo Town and spent a total of thirty-five Sea Spirit Stones.    

Emperor Zi's eyes swept across the zither Qin Xuan had taken out and directly said: "Wait."    

"Hmm?" Qin Xuan raised his head to look at Emperor Zi, only to see Emperor Zi saying: "This zither is too inferior, it is not compatible with my zither music, throw away this zither, I will give you another good zither."    

"Eh." Qin Xuan was startled, was she that good to him?    

Not only did they give him music books and music books, but they also gave him a good zither. This made him feel very flattered.    

"Xi Yue, bring the ring pendant over." Emperor Zi's gaze turned towards Xi Yue as she instructed him. Xi Yue's beautiful eyes could not help but freeze, and her beautiful face revealed a look of astonishment.    

Although the master had the habit of hiding the guqin, the number of guqin he truly loved was not many. The ones he loved the most were the nine heavens and the ring pendant.    

And now, he was giving it away just like that?    

"What are you still standing there for? Do you want me to go get it myself?" Emperor Zi said again.    

"Yes, Xi Yue will come over right away." Xi Yue said, then walked out of the hall.    

Not long after, Xi Yue returned with a long and narrow zither case in his hand. The zither case had a pale green luster, as though there was an immortal light flowing on it, as though an array formation was hidden inside the case.    

Xi Yue slowly walked to Qin Xuan and handed the guqin box over to him. Then he said to Qin Xuan: "Here, take this."    

Qin Xuan looked at Xi Yue, and felt that it was somewhat funny. It seemed that this girl had a very deep grudge against him.    

However, Qin Xuan did not blame her. His attitude towards Xi Yue before was extremely cold, and it was understandable that he would not be happy with him.    

Qin Xuan reached out to catch the guqin box, but at this moment, a serious expression suddenly appeared on Xi Yue's pretty face. She spoke out to Qin Xuan once more, "This guqin is called the Ring-Bao Hall, it's a treasure ranked guqin, you have to take good care of it, don't damage it."    

"A treasure ranked zither!" Qin Xuan's eyes revealed a hint of light, he had heard the Master mention the type of zither before.    

Not only was the materials needed to make the zither scarce, the person who played the zither had to warm it up day and night. When the zither gave birth to his own true spirit, it would also need countless years before it was possible to transform into an immortal beast.    

Every single immortal zither could be cultivated, and could even be cultivated to the point of being able to unleash powerful attacks. It was no different from a true martial cultivator.    

And beneath the immortal grade zither was a treasure ranked zither.    

There were many kinds of Hongbao ranked zithers, and their strengths varied. However, even the worst quality one could be called a imperial weapon with spiritual nature. The zither body would not fade after thousands of years, and it could even withstand being burned by raging flames and bombarded by thunder and not being destroyed.    

What Qin Xuan didn't expect was that Emperor Zi would actually gift him a Precious Treasure level guqin.    

This was definitely an extremely precious gift.    

At this moment, Qin Xuan finally understood why Xi Yue had revealed such a reluctant expression.    

If he gave away a treasure ranked zither like this, how could he not feel the pinch?    

But to not accept rewards without merit, with a way to earn money, Qin Xuan would not casually receive gifts from others.    

Qin Xuan then retracted both his hands from the guqin, and cupped his hands at Emperor Zi: "This guqin is too precious, senior should retract it."    

"Take it. There is no reason for me to take back the things I gave you." Emperor Zi said with an expressionless face. Although his tone was calm, it was as if he was trying to say that he couldn't refuse.    

Qin Xuan's gaze immediately became strange. Emperor Zi, are you going to forcefully send me off?    

"Junior is worried that he is lacking in talent and is unable to release the true light of the zither. The disciple is mocked by others and this zither will be shamed, causing senior to lose even more face." Qin Xuan said calmly.    

He had just started learning the zither and it was enough for him to just use the ordinary zither practice. To directly give him a treasure rank zither, wasn't that a bit too much?    

"I told you, that zither of yours doesn't match up to my zither music." Emperor Zi's tone was calm, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and a look of playfulness appeared in his eyes, and he smiled at Qin Xuan: "Didn't you always have confidence in yourself? Why, are you scared now?"    

"…" The corner of Qin Xuan's mouth twitched, and without another word, he turned to Xi Yue and said: "Give me the guqin."    

Before Xi Yue could react, Qin Xuan took the pendant from her hand.    

"You …" Xi Yue wanted to say something, but Qin Xuan had already walked to the side, and opened the guqin case, releasing an extremely bright light from the guqin case, illuminating the entire Pure Heart Palace.    

Qin Xuan lowered his head, and saw a light green zither lying inside the case, the zither looked no different from an ordinary zither, but upon closer inspection, one would realize that it contained an extremely majestic spirit, and the spirit had protected the zither extremely well, preventing it from being worn out by the passage of time.    

This ring was a Hongbao ranked zither. It had already given birth to a zither spirit, and at times, it would resonate with the person who played it, creating an even more wonderful melody.    

You possess the Zither Heart, so you must have extremely keen insight into the sound of zither. Although your playing skills are lacking, as long as you train diligently and hard, it won't take long for you to reach a certain height. At that time, when you play the zither heart, you will definitely be able to release the light that belongs to the ring. Emperor Zi looked at Qin Xuan and said, his eyes revealing traces of hope.    

Obviously, he did not gift the ring to Qin Xuan out of impulse.    

He saw the potential in Qin Xuan, at least on the journey to the zither, it was limitless.    

When Qin Xuan heard Emperor Zi, he also understood what was going on. He turned around to face Emperor Zi, and for the first time, he revealed a respectful expression.    

Looking at the handsome figure in front of him, Emperor Zi's eyes suddenly revealed an incomparably brilliant smile. He had already seen that this child hid tigers within his heart, and was not arrogant and ignorant.
