Chapter 307: Xiao and Qin Ensemble, Confronting Qiu Yan

“What happened to Venerable Qiu Yan’s corpse!”

At this moment, even Great Emperor Jin Ming fully panicked.

He could feel the deathly aura spreading from the Venerable’s body.

Even though the strength of the corpse had greatly diminished after death, the terrifying might of a Qiu Yan, even as a corpse, was enough to far surpass the strength of a Great Emperor!

A pipa appeared in the Venerable’s hand; it was the once world-renowned heavenly tribulation magical treasure, ‘Kong Ling’.

With strings crafted from the colorful wings of a peacock, the Venerable’s somewhat stiff and pale fingers plucked them.

In an instant, boundless Majesty instantly spread outwards.

As the pipa’s notes sounded, wherever they passed, countless cultivators instantly felt as if struck by lightning, their bodies trembling violently.

Even Holy Emperors of the Transforming Sea Realm stumbled, nearly falling to the ground.

Wherever the Venerable’s gaze swept, the pipa’s sound transformed into waves, sweeping past.

Over a hundred cultivators were instantly swept away, falling in disarray, utterly embarrassed.

Under the simple pipa melody, countless people were drenched in sweat, their eyes filled with terror.

They couldn’t imagine that a mere few notes could unexpectedly exude such terrifying power!

“Is this the terrifying power of the Tribulation Realm? If we truly want to confront her head-on, I’m afraid we must join forces to have a chance of winning!”

Great Emperor Jin Ming exclaimed in astonishment, hurriedly looking up at the others.

Chu Qingyue’s gaze also wore a slight coldness:

“It seems, we can only…”

“Wife, I might have a chance.”

Just at this moment, Nie Chen suddenly spoke.

Using the Spirit Birth Eye, he had previously sensed this Venerable’s past and also received a prompt from the System.

[The Venerable in life was infatuated with the Dao of Music and Love, and after her Dao Companion died, she was unwilling to live alone and committed suicide.

The host can try to influence her with the Dao of Music and Love]

“What chance?”

Chu Qingyue couldn’t help but show curiosity.

After all, they were facing a Tribulation Realm corpse that once looked down upon the world.

If they were to confront her head-on, I’m afraid four Great Emperors would have to try their best just to subdue her.

“We only need to do this…”

Nie Chen gently leaned into Chu Qingyue’s ear and spoke his thoughts.

“That’s all?”

This time, even Chu Qingyue seemed somewhat in disbelief.

“Don’t worry, trust your husband.”

Nie Chen confidently guaranteed.

“Alright, then let’s try it.”

Chu Qingyue quickly nodded seriously.

As the pipa sound continuously rang out, in the blink of an eye, countless cultivators stiffened under the Venerable’s pressure, terrified and drenched in sweat, with no room for resistance.

But at this moment, Chu Qingyue quickly borrowed a bamboo flute from Saintess Fanhua, and Nie Chen also took out a wooden zither.

“What are they doing?”

Great Emperor Jin Ming was completely puzzled by this scene.

But just at this moment, Nie Chen and Chu Qingyue smiled at each other and said:

“Let’s begin.”

Immediately, melodious flute music rose ethereally, and accompanied by this flute music, Nie Chen also played the zither.

The most unimaginable thing was that the flute music and zither music, although from two different instruments, seemed to be connected as if they shared a single mind.

The two melodies drifted within the Emperor Mausoleum.

And every note, every rhythm, seemed to be perfectly natural, without a single flaw.

Note by note, they were connected like lovers entwined, reluctant to part.

Even more importantly…

Compared to this profound and extremely harmonious melody, Great Emperor Jin Ming’s gaze instantly froze.

Because he clearly saw.

Playing the zither and accompanying it with the flute.

Whether it was Nie Chen or Chu Qingyue, their gazes were as if fixed on each other’s bodies.

Cherry lips lightly touching the flute’s opening, Chu Qingyue looked up at Nie Chen, a smile on her lips.

And completely different from the coldness on her stunning cheeks, that smile seemed even sweeter than honey.

Nie Chen’s lips also wore a smile.

The two seemed to be playing music, but in reality, they were gazing at each other with deep affection!

“This… how can this be!”

The single Great Emperor Jin Ming felt as if he had suffered ten thousand points of critical damage.

And at this moment, the music, a mixture of zither and flute, melodiously drifted.

The intoxicating melody caused many cultivators to become lost within it.

However, compared to this, there was something even more startling.

The Venerable corpse’s advance stopped!

Her empty, lifeless eyes, covered with a faint red light, also looked towards Nie Chen and Empress Qingyue.

Although they didn’t notice the affectionate gazes between the two, the cultivators instantly erupted in excitement.

“The Empress stopped the Qiu Yan corpse’s advance with just a flute melody, what profound method is this!”

“As expected of the Empress!”

Many people even felt their eyes tearing up.

If it weren’t for Empress Qingyue, I’m afraid Qiu Yan corpse would be enough to annihilate everyone.

But at this time, although the Venerable stopped advancing, her empty gaze was fully captivated.

“Clang~~~”

The pipa strings trembled, transforming into majestic ripples that surged towards the two.

The zither and flute music gathered in the sky and collided with them.

Immediately, shockwaves spread outwards, causing the clothes of many people nearby to flutter, and they couldn’t help but take a step back.

But unexpectedly, the two melodies canceled each other out in the air!

At this moment, even the stiff and sluggish Venerable corpse seemed to be stunned for a moment.

Following this, an even more formidable pressure swept around her. The Kong Ling pipa shone even brighter.

“Wife, we need to step it up.”

Nie Chen said softly, seemingly taking it seriously.

“Mm.”

At this moment, Nie Chen sat cross-legged on the ground, playing the zither.

But Chu Qingyue, who was standing beside him, leaned down.

And, she gently sat on Nie Chen’s lap, her light blue, cold skirt also leaning against Nie Chen’s legs, like blooming flowers.

The two looked at each other, and Nie Chen couldn’t help but smile:

“Wife, your flute playing skills seem to have become even more proficient.”

“Stop with the sweet talk, this is the Venerable Qiu Yan!”

Chu Qingyue softly replied.

“What about Qiu Yan? Isn’t my wife more beautiful?”

Nie Chen answered without hesitation.

“You! Forget it, let’s focus on the enemy.”

Chu Qingyue never thought that Nie Chen would have the leisure to say these things in such a situation, but after complaining, she placed the bamboo flute against her cherry lips once more.

Two melodies swirled up and fiercely charged towards the Venerable!
