NOVEL WEB
Chapter 51: Hall Master
Pfft, the 2 painting beauties couldnt help but laugh at Ye Yongs words.
Hey, dont laugh. Write it down, Ye Yong said, as if he was a strict school teacher.
Eh? Senior sisters, why are you here? Ye Yong asked, looking at Yi Bai and the others, even though he knew the answer. The reason that Ye Yong knew what the assessment was about despite Long Tian not joining the Music and Art Hall was because Long Tian and Li Jun Xia had brought it up and talked about it in the novel when they were drinking together.
The 2 painting beauties were both drawn by the Hall Master, and they were named Hua Ming and Hua Xin. Mu Qing Yin was in the ascension realm, so it wasnt hard for her to make things in paintings alive. But thats to the extent of her power- sure, she could make them alive, but in essence, they were still things in paintings. They had a spiritual body, but not a physical body. In other words, it was impossible for them to you know, do that thing.
So what was the assessment?
Think about this. After spending a whole day copying a book without rest, youre both mentally and physically tired. Suddenly, out of nowhere, 2 sexy beauties appeared, and both of them were seducing and tempting you. Would you be able to resist? No normal man could resist it. That was the assessment.
Knowing the contents of the assessment in advance wouldnt be enough. The painting beauties had the ability to influence the divine soul and could hypnotize those without a strong will, so they could still fail.
But who was Ye Yong? He was someone with a divine physique! Normally, a strong physique didnt correspond to a strong divine soul, but that wasnt the case for the Chaotic Origin Divine Physique. This was because a strong divine soul was required to use chaotic energy.
And that wasnt all. The painting beauties would adjust the strength of their influence on the soul depending on the cultivation of the examinee. Ye Yong was only at the 10th layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm, so they would only use a little more influence than what would be enough to affect a cultivator at the 10th layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm. They would not use enough strength to influence a cultivator at the Crystallization or even the Golden Core Realm.
As such, Ye Yong felt like it was less tempting than the time when he had whispered things into Qin Shi Mengs ears. The fragrance Empress Qin gave off, those pink earlobes, that snow-white neck, was much, much more seductive and tempting. And yet, Ive managed to keep control of myself. This is nothing in comparison.
Junior Brother Ye, youre okay? Even though Yi Bai and the others always wanted to believe in Ye Yong, they knew just how powerful the painting beauties were.
What could happen to me? These 2 sisters are really kind and offered to help me write down stories.
The 2 painting beauties laughed. If the people who took the test in the past were half as talented as you are, we wouldnt have been bored for so long.
Does that mean I passed the test? Ye Yong asked.
Of course, the painting beauties said, each of them blowing into one of Ye Yongs ears. You can come and find us to play in the future. Even though we cant let you experience the real thing, we do have the ability to let you experience an illusion that feels more real than a dream.
Or you can also wait for us for a few hundred years. By then, well have consumed enough spiritual energy to become specters, at which point well have physical bodies. At that time
The things that mortals called specter beasts and specters were simply things that consumed enough spiritual energy that they obtained consciousness and life. Hua Ming and Hua Xin had intelligence and consciousness given to them by Mu Qing Yin, but they lacked life to become specters.
Being a specter didnt make someone a bad person. Some cultivators who spent their lives killing demons and specters might even receive help from kind-hearted specters when they were in danger.
Ye Yong only smiled faintly at Hua Ming and Hua Xin and didnt answer. He could tell that they were still testing him, so he couldnt let his guard down. Just from their appearance, the painting beauties were perfect. Ye Yong was honestly a bit tempted, especially since he didnt actually have to wait a few hundred years. He could simply buy something from the system shop that would accelerate their process and make them become specters and gain life immediately.
However, at the end of the day, they were still created by Mu Qin Ying, and she was their master. She could sense everything that the painting beauties could sense. If Ye Yong really bought the thing to make the painting beauties specters immediately, he would just be killing himself.
Mu Qing Yin had lived for over 600 years, so even though she spent all her time cultivating music and art and hardly interacted with others, she wouldnt be as innocent as Qin Shi Meng or Wu Xue, who werent even 20 years old. There was no way she would remain indifferent if Ye Yong took out an artifact that could speed up the process becoming specters. freёwebnovel.com
After all, it was something that could make painted objects specters. It was something that would make every art cultivator go crazy. Besides, she was an ascension realm cultivator and had strength, and her divine soul was way stronger than Ye Yongs divine soul. She could use her divine soul and make Ye Yong spill out all of his secrets.
Especially the favorability system. I may not be able to control the numbers, and the heroines favorability of me is solely because of my efforts, if Mu Qing Yin realizes that something like that exists, then she would feel extremely repulsed by it, which would make it impossible for me to make her fall in love with me.
Please rest assured. This system is a high-order existence, so unless you, the host, speak about it of your own will, then no matter what method is used, nothing about this system will be leaked, and all related information will be protected, the system explained.
Ye Yong felt relieved hearing that, but he still thought that it was best to be careful before Mu Qing Yins favorability reached a certain level. As for the painting beauties, Ye Yong couldnt trust them completely or show them too much, but conversely, he could use them to help make Mu Qing Yin fall in love with him. After all, Mu Qing Yin could sense everything that they sensed when she wanted to, so Ye Yong chatting with the painting beauties was essentially also him chatting with Mu Qing Yin.
The reason Ye Yong thought that Mu Qing Yin was the hardest heroine to capture and the reason he joined the Music and Art Hall was that Mu Qing Yin was too much of a shut-in. It was difficult for disciples in the Music and Art Hall to see her even once, let alone disciples from other halls. Becoming a disciple in the Music and Art Hall would at least allow Ye Yong to contact Mu Qing Yin through the painting beauties.
If Mu Qing Yin was such a shut-in, then how did Long Tian get to know Mu Qing Yin in the novel? Of course, it was a setup by the author.
Mu Qing Yin was unable to advance in the path of music or art, and she realized that she was too much of a shut-in. As such, decided to go out on a journey to try and break through. On her journey, she coincidentally met Long Tian and a few other disciples from the Heavenly Luo Sect protecting a city from demons. Long Tian had the best performance, so she took a bit of interest in the young and hot-blooded cultivator. That was their first encounter.
Mu Qing Yin wasnt a heroine who appeared at the beginning of the novel; instead, she was a mid-story heroine.
As the male lead, Long Tian was born with a trait that would make him a target for pretty much everyone, so Mu Qing Yin helped Long Tian a few times during her journey. In the middle of the novel, Mu Qing Yin got trapped in the ruins of an ancient sect, and it was Long Tian (with the help of the Fallen Immortal Elder and his vast knowledge) who helped her get out of the ruin, though she became heavily injured.
The ruin was infested with demons, and Long Tian fought to the death and eventually brought Mu Qing Yin to safety. And with that, their relationship changed from simple friendship to friends who went through life and death together. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Once Mu Qing Yin obtained the music and art inheritance from the ancient sect, her cultivation skyrocketed, and people started calling her Zither Art Fairy.
She was the type of character whose cultivation consistently stayed higher than the male lead in the novel and always helped the male lead through difficult situations.
What reason is there for me not to hug such a big thigh? Ive joined the Music and Art Hall, so Im way ahead of the male lead in terms of capturing Mu Qing Yin. If I interfered properly, then Mu Qing Yin wouldnt interact with the male lead at all. However, who would save the male lead when hes in danger if Mu Qing Yin doesnt?
Well, whatever. Hes the invincible son of the realm with amazing luck on his side. Im better off worrying about how to keep myself alive and well and not be targeted by the worlds consciousness than worrying about him.
