I’m Really Not A Supreme Master! - Chapter 223: That Tune_1

The gates of Xuan Yin Immortal City opened.

Ao Wushuang hurriedly ushered the envoy inside.

In no time, he and the envoy arrived before a grand hall.

The envoy was taken into the grand hall, while Ao Wushuang was left behind on the spot.

Inside the grand hall.

An elder with white hair, upon seeing the envoy being brought in, instantly flashed a look of rage in his eyes.

“Who dares to lay hands on the people of our Xuan Yin Immortal City?!”

He slammed the table.

On the table beside him, there were more than a dozen flutes of various kinds laid out.

Those were his magical treasures.

“Reporting to Elder Xuan Di, a few days ago, the city received a message saying that traces of the Celestial Monarch’s Formation-Breaking Tune had appeared in one of the lower worlds.”

“So, I dispatched Qin Zhen to investigate.”

“Unexpectedly, he was sent back injured… Judging by the wounds… he must have been harmed by some sort of formidable sound waves!”

A middle-aged man stepped forward.

Hearing this, Elder Xuan Di, sitting at the head, immediately darkened his expression!

He waved his hand.

A ray of light fell upon the envoy Qin Zhen.

After sensing for a moment, he suddenly raised his eyebrows!

“Indeed he has been wounded by some kind of music…”

He spoke up.

At these words, everyone in the grand hall was also taken aback.

“How could the Celestial Monarch’s Formation-Breaking Tune appear in the lower world?”

“Impossible, our lineage has no branches in the lower world.”

“Could it be that the traitor from our lineage in the past has fled to the lower world?”

Everyone was extremely puzzled.

Elder Xuan Di pondered for a moment, then immediately infused a stream of Spiritual Power into Qin Zhen’s body.

The barely-alive Qin Zhen immediately started coughing.

“Speak, what exactly happened?”

Elder Xuan Di asked in a grave tone.

“Reporting to the elder, I went to Saint Cloud City and entered the lower world, but I found that the Immortal Spirit Qi there was even denser than in our Xuan Yin Immortal City…”

Qin Zhen weakly reported all that had happened in the lower world.

In the grand hall, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically!

“In the Million Lower Realms, the Three Great Heavenly Realms are revered, yet even they could not possibly have such an environment!”

“Could it be that some great event has occurred in the lower world?”

“It’s terrifying, from billions of Li in the high skies, after hearing a few ethereal notes of music, it left a Taiyi Golden Immortal like this…”

The faces of the crowd were exceedingly grave!

“Could there really be such terrifying music in the lower world?”

Elder Xuan Di was deep in thought!

—Their lineage had a traitor who had fled from their sect.

For years, they had been seeking the Celestial Monarch’s Formation-Breaking Tune, hoping to find that traitor!

“I must take a trip there myself!”

Elder Xuan Di immediately stood up, his expression extremely solemn.

At these words, everyone in the grand hall was even more shocked.

A mere lower world, was actually attracting the attention of a Daluo Golden Immortal?

…

Soon.

Elder Xuan Di personally returned to Saint Cloud City with Ao Wushuang.

When the many powers of Saint Cloud City learned that an Immortal General was personally taking action, they were all immensely shocked.

Once again, they opened the barrier between worlds!

Not long after, Ao Wushuang and Elder Xuan Di reappeared in the Heavenly Realm.

“This realm is indeed very strange…”

Elder Xuan Di was moved!

The Immortal Spirit Qi was indeed even denser than in their Xuan Yin Immortal City!

One must know that Xuan Yin Immortal City is an Immortal-level city, renowned throughout the entire Northern Immortal Domain, yet this was just a lower world!

“This realm’s territory nearly surpasses that of the great worlds in the Earth Character Realm, almost comparable to the Heavenly Realm itself…”

Murmuring, he said, “Come, take me to where you heard that music.”

Soon, they arrived above the Cangli Mountain Range.

Meanwhile.

Below the sky-high space, on top of a mountain peak.

Zi Ling’s painting was completed!

She let out a long breath.

It was a landscape painting!

Quiet and peaceful, like poetry.

“Sister Zi Ling, one foot has stepped into immortality…”

Nan Feng sensed the change in Zi Ling’s aura.

Indeed, the teacher brought them out, aiming to guide them both.

She could now easily control the notes of the Immortal chapter.

No longer to be lost amidst those notes.

“Let’s go, we should be heading back.”

Li Fan lazed around on a large rock, just had a leisurely nap, stretched himself, feeling utterly comfortable.

Life should be spent leisurely like this.

Even as a cultivator, who could be more carefree than him?

Li Fan couldn’t help but smile.

Zi Ling and Nan Feng also started packing up, getting ready to descend the mountain.

But at that moment, suddenly two people appeared on top of the mountain peak!

A middle-aged man and an elder with silver-white hair.

The elder had a flute hanging from his waist.

It was none other than Xuan Di and Ao Wushuang.

Xuan Di glanced indifferently at the three people of Li Fan.

He quickly understood.

That man was useless, a cripple, showing no aura whatsoever.

But these two women, their auras were extraordinary!

They didn’t seem like cultivators from the lower world could have!

His heart immediately grew heavy, his gaze turning to Nan Feng!

“Not the traitor from those years…”

He mused to himself; could it be the disciple of that traitor?

Whoever it was, deserved to die!

He immediately said coldly:

“May I ask if it was you playing the zither here just now?”

Nan Feng replied serenely:

“Yes.”

Xuan Di sneered and said:

“I, too, enjoy music. May I request the young lady to play a tune and engage in a musical contest with me, what do you say?”

With that, he casually took down the Iron Flute and blew gently.

A powerful wave of sound instantly swept towards Li Fan and the others!

Embeded within this wave of sound, there was a clear intention to kill!

“Too much!”

Zi Ling waved her brush, and the sound waves were immediately dispersed.

However, Nan Feng stopped Zi Ling and turned back to look at Li Fan, asking,

“Teacher?”

She was asking for guidance.

Li Fan smiled and said,

“The old man’s proficiency with his flute is not yet mastered, but since he wishes for a competition, you should oblige him!”

Upon hearing the notes of Xuan Di’s flute, Li Fan had immediately discerned that Xuan Di must have been obsessed with the flute for many years.

Regrettably, he hadn’t even touched the fringe of musical rhythm.

At his words, Nan Feng immediately took down the ancient zither she had been carrying on her back and placed it on her lap.

“Please.”

Nan Feng spoke indifferently.

The Iron Flute began to play once again!

His flute music, sounding like the whistling of the wind and the calls of cranes, carried a formidable force as if summoning troops from the grass and trees—it was grand and powerful!

As the music sounded, Ao Wushuang, who was next to him, instantly retreated rapidly; his body was trembling!

Too terrifying.

Yet Nan Feng simply stroked the zither.

Notes flowed smoothly from string to string.

In an instant, the terrible wave of sound from the old man was beaten back, retreat after retreat!

Hiss!

Xuan Di drew in a sharp breath!

His white hair danced wildly as he nearly exerted his full power, with the entirety of his Daluo Golden Immortal cultivation level bursting forth.

However, it was to no avail!

Nan Feng, with an expression of calm, suddenly played a note as piercing as an Iron Cavalry charge.

“Ah——”

Xuan Di suddenly let out a tragic cry; as the note sounded, his cherished jade flute exploded, and he stumbled several steps backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood!

His face went pale, extremely aggrieved!

He was gravely injured!

“No…impossible, how could it truly be the Celestial Monarch’s Formation-Breaking Tune…”

His old face showed a trace of horror!

At that moment, without any hesitation, he turned and fled!

He was afraid, fearful that the other party would kill to silence him!

Ao Wushuang hastily followed suit in the escape.

Behind them, however, Nan Feng just calmly put away her zither.

She had not even played the Immortal-level notes of the ‘Immortal’ chapter yet.

“This old gentleman, was quite fierce!”

At this time, Li Fan could not help but smile.

The man truly had strength, to the point that he even blew his jade flute apart.

It was the first time Li Fan had seen such a ruthless person!

But, old sir, your competitive spirit is too strong, to actually vomit blood on the spot and then turn and leave just because you’re no match for Nan Feng in musical rhythm?

Such a narrow mind!

He shook his head and then said,

“Let’s go.”

…

Before long, the trio of Li Fan returned to the small courtyard.

Just as they arrived at the courtyard, Xiao Bai leaped into Li Fan’s arms, affectionately crying out.

“Hungry, are you?”

Li Fan rubbed Xiao Bai’s belly and said,

“Let’s make dinner!”

…

Meanwhile, at this moment.

In the Immortal Domain.

At the entrance of Xuan Yin Immortal City.

“Ao Wushuang from Saint Cloud City requests entry; the Elder of your esteemed city is about to die!”

Ao Wushuang’s trembling voice once again resounded!

The people guarding the walls of Xuan Yin Immortal City were bewildered.

Another one close to death?

And an Elder at that?

What an ill omen Ao Wushuang seemed to be!

The city gate was hurriedly opened.

When Elder Xuan Di was brought into the city, Xuan Yin Immortal City instantly trembled with shock!

Before this incident, there had only been a minor Taiyi Golden Immortal, so there hadn’t been much of a stir.

But now… a Daluo Golden Immortal was gravely injured and close to death?

The Immortal Generals within the city were all alerted and astir!

In a flash, everyone gathered inside the main hall.

“What happened, how did Brother Xuan Di sustain such severe injuries?”

“Inconceivable, this… it appears to be an injury inflicted by a zither’s sound?”

“I heard that Brother Xuan Di went down to the Lower World to investigate; how did he return with such heavy injuries?”

Everyone looking at the unconscious Xuan Di was utterly shocked.

At the same time, they applied various medicines, yet they could not revive Xuan Di!

“Immediately report to the Immortal Monarch!”

Eventually, one of the Immortal Generals spoke with a grave tone!

Everyone agreed with nods.

Shortly thereafter.

“The Immortal Monarch has arrived!”

A loud call came from outside the hall.

An aura of immortality wafted gently around.

A woman in a yellow dress, carrying a Seven-Stringed Zither on her back and wearing a veil over her face, entered the hall.

All within the hall bowed respectfully to her!

“Greetings, Immortal Monarch!”

They all spoke in unison!

This woman was none other than the ruler of Xuan Yin Immortal City, Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin!

Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin’s eyes, clear as autumn waters, swept across the hall, finally resting on Elder Xuan Di!

With just one look, ripples violently surged through her eyes!

“This… this is…”

She stepped forward to examine his injuries.

“How is this possible, how could this tune appear in the Lower World?!”

She exclaimed in disbelief!

The discomposure of Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin left the numerous Immortal Generals in utter shock.

What kind of tune could shock the Immortal Monarch so?

“Immortal Monarch, this is…”

An Immortal General asked, perplexed.

“Immediately seal all information!”

Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin gave a direct command,

“This matter must not reach the knowledge of other powers; otherwise, I fear a great disaster will come upon us!”

Hearing this, the numerous Immortal Generals were shocked.

Was the situation that serious?!
