Supreme Emperor of Swords-Novel

Chapter 392 The Moon Over a Fountain

In Ding Hao’s previous life, he was forced to attend many classes of interest when he was young. One of them was to learn erhu from a prestigious artist. He could play a few songs. Since today he went out to relax, he wanted to play when seeing the erhu. He tuned it and played a song named “The Moon Over a Fountain”.

That was a famous song of his previous life and it was widely spread. At first, Ding Hao was a little clumsy, and after playing for a while, he gradually became skilled.

The so-called expert could transfer his skills to other things. Ding Hao had an excellent control of his body and spirit. So in relatively short time, he had completely surpassed the proficiency of his previous life. He even reached the level of master. The lingering sound of the erhu expressed complaint and anger. When people heard it, they felt like being in a lotus pond under the moonlight night. It seemed the water in the pond rippled...

Even Ding Hao himself was immersed in the song; he felt unprecedentedly relaxed physically and psychologically.

In a trance, he had the illusion of “Clear and bright moon cast its light on the pine woods, while creeks flow above the stone.”, as if he were wandering along the West Lake in a moonlit night. The moonlight shed over him cleansed him and eased his mind. He wanted to fly with the wind and sleep in the Guang Han Palace...

Time passed; Ding Hao suddenly felt that something bound in his body suddenly collapsed. An unprecedented sense of comfort engulfed him, and his divine awareness suddenly became clear. It seemed that the thing that covered his eyes was instantly removed...

“Body Furnace”!

Ding Hao was ecstatic.

He inadvertently made it.

Unexpectedly, he broke through the fourth level of “Mind Essential” and entered the realm of “Body Furnace” by playing the erhu. He felt that his body was like a stove which could melt and refine everything. He even sensed that the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth drifted into his body.

Ding Hao couldn’t have felt the beauty and marvel of it.

The compliments suddenly came into his ear. The blind old man shook his head and sighed, “I have been studying music my whole life, but I have never heard such a beautiful tune. Can you tell me where this song derives from?”

Then Ding Hao noticed that the people in the tavern were all gazing at him and were still immersed in the song. Even many passersby outside the tavern were listening in to the song next to the door.

After hesitating for a while, Ding Hao directly plagiarized a blind man’s work from another spacetime. He answered with a smile, “It was just an occasional play.”

The blind old man lamented for a long time. His empty eyeballs seemed sharper than ordinary people. He “looked at” Ding Hao with a strange expression for a long time and then said, “I didn’t expect that I could meet a bosom friend here. I’ll accept the gold ingot.”

After saying that, the old man complimented again and again.

Li Lan also looked at Ding Hao in surprise.

In the Martial Arts practice, Ding Hao had brought too much amazement to him and the entire Sect. Unexpectedly, he was also excellent in music. “Was this guy born to be a omnipotent genius?”

However, just at that moment—

“I didn’t expect that the number one genius of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect played to the galley.” A strange cynical voice came from the crowd.

Ding Hao looked around and saw five or six young people coming out of the crowd.

Those people all were dressed in cyan and red warrior tight suits. Their leaders were a man and a woman wearing gorgeous red and blue armors. They were both good-looking. The man with red long hair and long eyebrows should be 18 or 19 years old; the woman was a little younger. She was graceful and charming, with slender eyebrows and fair skin which made her very attractive.

The man and the woman had a steady aura. Apparently they very powerful, beyond the realm of primordial grandmaster.

“Ah, they are the “Double Wind and Lightning” of the Leiyin Sect!”

Someone in the crowd claimed and revealed their status. It turned out that they were the young leading figures of the Leiyin Sect, one of the nine sects. They were named “Double Wind and Lightning” who were among the very few young experts in the Snow Province.

Ding Hao frowned.

Among the nine sects, the Leiyin Sect and the Falling Star Sect belonged to the Tranquility Academy’s camp. There had been many frictions between the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and the Leiyin Sect over the years. Half a year ago in the battle of the Heavenly Valley, in which Leiyin Sect took part, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect lost many primordial superiors such as Ma Yifei.

Ding Hao had seen the information of the man and the woman in the file provided by the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

The man named Bi Xia cultivated “Da Yan Thunder Techniques” which ranked ninth in the Snow Province’s Achievement List. He was expected to be at the realm of seven apertures primordial grandmaster and he was good at melee and controlling lightning. The woman named Xia Nichang practiced “Circulation Breeze technique” which ranked eighth in the Achievement List. They were the competitors of the ranking conference.

Ding Hao believed that those two people had also studied his information in detail, so they could recognize his identity.

With several masters confronting each other, the atmosphere immediately became tense.

The crowd was horrified and all receded.

In the twinkling of an eye, all the people in the restaurant were evacuated to the outside and the entire restaurant was left empty.

Only then did people realize that the youth in cyan robe who played a fantastic song was Ding Hao, the well-known man of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. No wonder he was so excellent. It was true that under such fame, he was indeed outstanding.

Considering the relationship between the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and the Leiyin Sect, no one dared to stay in the tavern.

If the two parties fought, the restaurant could be destroyed in an instant.

Even the old man and his grandson somehow mysteriously disappeared into the crowd.

“Ding Hao, known for his skills in both sword and saber, is just an immature boy. It is really disappointing.” the leader Bi Xia with red long hair sneered provocatively.

He cultivated the “Da Yan Thunder technique” which ranked ninth in the “Fantastic Martial Arts List” of the Snow Province. Five or six years prior, he had become famous and was known as the once-in-a-hundred-year genius of the Leiyin Sect. Moreover, he was unrivalled in the Snow Province state; seldom could he find a match for him.

Ding Hao smiled slightly and said, “You should be glad that your luck today is good.”
