Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1290

Chapter 1290 Mysterious Beauty

After confirming her rescheduling with Liang Xiaosheng, Li Luoyang brought Yuan to her room on the fourth floor.

Unsurprisingly, as the establishment's most popular and highest-earning performer, Li Luoyang's room took up half of the fourth floor. The interior of her room was simple yet elegant with decorations that were barely noticeable until Li Luoyang stood near them, enhancing her beauty.

"Please, make yourself comfortable." Li Luoyang said to him as she took her usual seat by the platform.

Yuan sat directly in front of her.

"So, what would you like to know about my master?" Li Luoyang asked him.

"Oh, just so you know, this information won't come for free. In return, I'd like you to play some songs for me with that Soul Ensnaring Zither."

"Of course." Yuan nodded.

"Then, for my first question, do you know where the Zither Goddess is now?"

"No, but she visits the lower heavens once every few hundred years."

"Do you think she'll visit soon?"

"I doubt it since she visited 100 years ago."

"I see… then how did you become her disciple?"

"Well, she was a patron at this establishment when I happened to be performing that day, and she approached me with the offer of guidance. I refused at first, unaware of her identity."

"Then—"

Li Luoyang raised her hand when Yuan tried to ask another question, and she said, "I'd like to hear a song before we continue."

Without saying another word, Yuan placed the Soul Ensnaring Zither on his lap and began playing with a gentle smile on his face.

"..."

Li Luoyang's eyes widened with shock a few moments later. She only had to hear a few notes before she was convinced of his god-like skills.

Yuan's music penetrated the walls and quickly filled the building, shocking everyone inside. When those outside the building heard the music, they rushed inside to take a glance at the performer, but to their disappointment, he was nowhere to be found.

"Who's that playing?!"

"Only Fairy Li would be this good… No… I have never heard this song before!"

"Who else besides Fairy Li could perform like this? It's even coming from the fourth floor!"

"What about that young man who went with her? She must've known about his skills, hence why she risked offending Senior Liang!"

Yuan's performance lasted only a minute, which was far from enough to satisfy the audience.

"You… are you also her disciple?" Li Luoyang asked him afterward.

Yuan pondered for a moment before responding, "I guess you can say that since she taught me how to play this zither."

"So she taught you… No wonder why you can play it…"

Yuan then asked, "Can I ask my next question now?"

She nodded.

"Do you know anything about the Zither Goddess' relationship with the God of Music?"
