Chapitre 24: Chapter 24 The Fame of the Butterfly Lovers' Melody Spreads Far and Wide
Body Refinement Process.
One word.
Pain.
Like needles stinging all over the body.
With Divine Sense, although it makes the cultivation route flawless, it also makes the feeling of pain much clearer.
Yu Qingtan's body trembled slightly, and tears uncontrollably flowed from the corners of her eyes.
But she endured it.
Although she was injured, she still tried hard to cultivate.
Before the quarter-hour ended, Yu Qingtan paused her cultivation.
As Yu Qingtan returned to the fifth layer of Qi Cultivation, she felt that the memories and effects of practicing the Ice Skin Jade Bone Art were still present.
Opening the System Panel.
[Cultivation Level: Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer 307/500, Body Refinement Second Layer 12/200]
[Cultivation Techniques: Clear Water Technique, Ice Skin Jade Bone Art]
"The progress of Body Refinement is surprisingly fast. Hmm, it must be related to the previous Desolate Lotus Seeds and Stonemarrow Milk as well."
"It seems I've grown taller, too!"
Yu Qingtan used a Cleansing Spell to clean herself and then willed a thought.
A dog without a tail appeared on the ground, it was the Half-Demon "Erha".
"Erha", still unconscious, came out.
Yu Qingtan set its fractured leg straight, made a splint from wood, and firmly tied it with cloth strips.
She then took out a Healing Pill, crushed it into water, and poured it into the dog.
The process went quite smoothly.
Afterwards, Yu Qingtan started to cultivate the Clear Water Technique without paying any further attention to it.
After cultivating for an hour, she put "Erha" back into the System Space.
...
In the following days, a story called Love of Butterfly Lovers spread throughout Suichuan Immortal City.
"Does anyone know where that part of the Mortal Realm is? I want to eliminate that Ma Wencai."
"Count me in!"
"Xiaoping, I want to cross-dress and go to the academy too!"
"Miss, we don't have an academy here."
"Why would Liang Shanbo's grave open?"
"Could it be a coincidence that he became a ghost cultivator?"
"Then how did they transform into butterflies?"
"Who knows?"
"The author of this story is actually Miss Qing Tan. What, you don't even know Miss Qing Tan?"
"Miss Qing Tan is the one who saved many fellow cultivators by killing a late-stage first-order Phantom Mist Desolate Butterfly in the Trial Demon Tower. She's also the remarkable woman who sole-handedly searched for her friend who fell off a cliff, and successfully reunited, full of affection and righteousness."
"What, is this Miss Qing Tan a top Qi Cultivation Stage cultivator?"
"Not exactly, Miss Qing Tan is the newly promoted inner disciple of Tianxiang Pavilion, exceptional in both the zither and dance, but she has her own fortune."
"Well, I must go and see for myself."
"I'll join you, I'll join you!"
Thus, the number of people wishing to see Yu Qingtan exploded daily.
Every visitor felt at home with Yu Qingtan and had the chance to listen to Love of Butterfly Lovers, singing her praises after they left.
Seeing this, Manager Su decisively arranged for Yu Qingtan to perform every four days.
This time, Yu Qingtan did not dance but played Love of Butterfly Lovers twice.
The audience below listened as if transfixed.
"Why do your eyes always carry tears?"
"Because I remember the first love I failed to keep."
...
That day, in Yu Qingtan's "office".
"Miss Qingtan, I am Yang Zhen. I really like your 'Love of Butterfly Lovers' story and the music. I want to get to know Miss Qingtan."
The beaded curtain had already been opened, and Yu Qingtan looked at the handsome "young master" who was saluting and introducing himself, speechless.
Those chest muscles more developed than her own, those tiny holes in the earlobes.
Does she really think I'm blind?
It was clearly another girl, yet wandering around Tianxiang Pavilion!
"Why do I say 'also a girl' so naturally, as if she's a kind of plant!"
Yu Qingtan suppressed her feelings, stood up and returned the courtesy, saying, "I thank Young Master Yang for his affection."
Seeing but not revealing.
"How did Miss Qingtan create such a good work like 'Love of Butterfly Lovers'?"
"Qingtan also heard such a story from others and was moved to create out of that emotion."
"I see, does Miss Qingtan have someone she likes?"
"I haven't met them yet."
"Then what kind of person does Miss Qingtan like?"
"Well, I like someone whose personality matches mine, and if they're good-looking and have a high Cultivation Level, that would be even better."
A herd of alpacas ran through Yu Qingtan's mind once again, but she could only deal with the question verbally.
Looking at the extraordinary robe she wore and the exquisitely made folding fan slanted at her waist, Yu Qingtan judged that she must certainly be a young miss from some family.
"Eh, Miss Qingtan and a friend of mine have very similar tastes! That friend of mine likes a senior brother who's very good-looking, has a high Cultivation Level, and has a personality that suits hers well."
Still "a friend", that friend is probably yourself, isn't it?
"Has Young Master Yang's friend and her senior brother gotten together yet?"
Yang Zhen's face stalled slightly, looking a little unnatural as she said, "Not yet."
"Let me guess, has that senior brother ever told your friend that he sees her as a sister?"
"Ha, ha, yes. My friend is very troubled and doesn't know what to do. Miss Qingtan's guess is so accurate, do you have any good strategies?"
"It's not about having any good strategies, but I've heard a story: In a Sect, the Sect Leader's daughter liked the eldest senior brother, but he only saw her as a sister. Later on, the Sect Leader took in another disciple who, although not highly gifted, was steady in character, diligent in cultivation, and quite fortunate. He took great care of his naive and mischievous senior sister, as assigned by the Sect Leader, and eventually won her heart. The eldest senior brother, upon learning this, regretted and hated the mistake, and wanted to kill the disciple, but after being defeated, he defected from the Sect."
"Ah, the Sect Leader's daughter is rather fickle to fall in love so easily."
"Cough, cough, that's not the point. You go tell that story to your friend and let her reflect on it. Now, let me play a piece for Young Master Yang. What would you like to hear?"
"Still 'Love of Butterfly Lovers', please."
...
"Young Master Qi, it's been a long time since your last visit, I thought you had forgotten about Qingtan."
The last customer turned out to be Qi Hong, and Yu Qingtan said coquettishly.
She had long ceased to feel sick about such behavior.
"Ha ha, how could that be? I could forget anyone but not Miss Qingtan. To think that after just over a month, Miss Qingtan has become even more beautiful and quite famous. If I hadn't been lucky, I wouldn't have seen Miss Qingtan today."
"Young Master Qi says so, truly flustering Qingtan. I've often thought of Young Master Qi, just wondering which sister kept you away from coming to Qingtan's place."
"Tsk, it's all because of that thief. A month ago, a brash thief broke into the Qis' treasure vault. Not only did he steal many treasures, but he also ruthlessly killed the cousin guarding the vault. Despite my uncle's efforts to severely wound the thief using the Blood Tether Technique, the thief still managed to escape. After some time, the thief healed and audaciously crippled several of the Qis' Qi Cultivation family members' Dantians, forcing the Family Head to order us not to go out at will."
Qi Hong took a sip of tea and continued with a smile, "Thankfully, our Family Head is unparalleled in wisdom and strategy, first setting up a dragnet before using bait to capture the thief in one fell swoop. Right now, he's locked in our family dungeon, paying the price for his actions."
A shock went through Yu Qingtan's heart. She poured Qi Hong another cup of tea, then asked, "Such a detestable thief, getting such an end is indeed reaping what he has sown. But what is this Blood Tracking Technique?"
"This Blood Tether Technique, it is a method my Qi family uses to protect our juniors. We cast a Blood Tether on the juniors, so if they are harmed, the Blood Tether will transfer to the perpetrator, and we can then use this to locate their position. Unfortunately, it has distance and time limitations. Otherwise, the thief wouldn't have escaped the first time. Let's not talk about these disappointing things now. I haven't heard Miss Qingtan play 'Love of Butterfly Lovers' solo yet."
"Qingtan will play it for Young Master Qi right now."
