Chapter 1754 The Dragon King's Return

As Tan Songyun's fingers touched the zither, the melodies that flowed captivated everyone who heard them, drawing them into a trance.

When Yuan recognized the song Tan Songyun had specifically chosen, a slight smile appeared on his face. However, the song was traditionally accompanied by a voice, and since Tan Songyun played only the zither, it felt incomplete.

A minute later, Tan Songyun stopped playing the zither to look at Yuan.

"Is that enough proof?" she asked.

Yuan nodded, "Yes, that's enough proof. Since the zither belonged to you, it's only right to return it to its rightful owner."

Without saying another word, Tan Songyun stored the zither inside her spatial ring.

"Can I ask you a question, Lady Tan?" Yuan suddenly spoke.

"What?"

"This man who wronged you… What are you going to do once you find him?"

"I'm going to kill him, then I am going to kill myself," she calmly responded.

Yuan's eyes widened after hearing this disturbing response, and he quickly said, "Don't you think that's a bit… too much? I don't know what he did to you, but to take your own life over it…"

Tan Songyun gritted her teeth and said, "What do you know about my life? I pursued the zither for most of my life because of that man, only to find out that it'd been a waste!"

"Although I don't know the details, I am willing to listen to your story," said Yuan.

Tan Songyun narrowed her eyes at him and sneered in disdain, "Since when were Dragon Emperors so kind and compassionate? As far as I am aware, they're all arrogant bastards who only care about themselves and their authority."

"You speak as if you know them personally."

"I have never met any of them, but my fellow sisters in the faction have. If you knew how many women have been wronged by these so-called Dragon Emperors, your view of them would instantly shatter—Oh, right. You're also one, aren't you?"

"I may be a Dragon Emperor, but that doesn't automatically mean I am affiliated or friends with the other Dragon Emperors. As a matter of fact, I only stay within my territory and don't interact with them."

"Sorry, but I am not buying it." Tan Songyun sneered.

Yuan shrugged, "You are free to believe what you want. In any case, are you satisfied with your investigation? Am I free to leave now?"

"Yes, go ahead. I won't stop you."

Yuan nodded, turned around, and walked back inside the Shen Family.

However, Tan Songyun remained standing outside for some reason.

"Um… Lady Tan, what are you still doing here?" one of the elders approached her and asked.

"What? I can't be here?" she glared at him.

"N-no… but…"

"Don't mind me. I won't cause any more trouble for the Shen Family."

"If you say so…"

Tan Songyun retrieved several spirit stones and handed them to the elder, "This is for the gate I damaged."
