Chapter 11
Not only had Gu Qingfeng’s familiarity with many songs overawed Ouyange Ye, but it also made her fake Young Master Bloodflame a bit more real . And of course, most importantly it saved her face for the time being .

But she had not become conceited with herself due to this, because she was aware that a fake could only be a fake! If things continued like this, Yun Hong and Ye Hui would’ve definitely tried every possible method of finding out the truth . And if they revealed even a small flaw, their whole sham would’ve fallen apart .
Therefore, Ouyang Ye took this opportunity and left with Gu Qingfeng, intending to change seats . However, the musical gathering was about to start and the venue was already overcrowded so the only open table she found was in a corner .
With no other choice left, she had to sit in a rather poor location, but as long as she avoided Yun Hong and Ye Hui, she was content .
Gu Qingfeng, on the other hand, did not mind this at all, as long as food and wine were on the table, he was happy
“Thank you so much for before! Come, I’ll give you a toast!” Ouyang Ye was very happy and excited .
When she thought about the ugly faces of Yun Hong and Ye Hui, she almost wanted to give Gu Qingfeng another kiss on the cheek . After she drank her wine, she asked, “I really didn’t expect you to know so many songs . It’s really incredible! How did you do it?”
“How did I do it? Hmm, how should I say it…I used to be very addicted to music for a long time, and I’ve read a lot of sheets of music and heard lots of songs . That’s how . ”
Back then, Gu Qingfeng started studying music just because he wanted to obtain the favor of a woman, but unwittingly he became engrossed in this field and started searching everywhere for all kinds of sheets of music, and even ended up digging the immortal caves of some experts that were proficient in music .
“Hey, be honest with me, how high are your musical attainment and what poems can you play?”
“Musical attainments are extraordinarily high, and I can play so many poems that even I’m not exactly clear about the number . ”

“Yeah, right, you sure can boast!”
Ouyang Ye gave him a supercilious look and said grumpily, “Oh, so you really think you know so many songs and your attainments are very high? Every song contains a lot of fingering styles, strings, and spiritual arts which require a lot of time to learn . ”
“And this is just for a song . A poem contains a lot of songs, and if you bring out the profundities within a song, it’ll take you at least three or five years . ”
Since music was one of the ten immortal arts, it was naturally not that simple .
As Ouyang Ye said, bringing out the profundities within a song required knowing a lot of fingering styles, strings, and also various spiritual arts . The reason why music was regarded as the most difficult art among the ten immortal arts was simply because it was much more challenging to learn than martial skills, magic arts, and sword arts .
Gu Qingfeng smiled but didn’t say anything, he looked at the crowded venue which caused his eyebrows to raise slightly and asked, “Why hasn’t this event started?”
“What’s the rush? It’s about to start . ”
“Then what happens?”
“What happens? Everyone will go on stage and play . ”
“That’s it?”
“What else do you want?”

“So everyone just goes on stage and plays some songs? Is this called a musical gathering? What’s the point of it?” Gu Qingfeng really couldn’t understand .
“Hey, don’t say it like that . This is a great opportunity for us young musicians . ”
Gu Qingfeng was somewhat puzzled, “Why?”
“Playing on the stage can increase your popularity and value . Later on, the price for playing a song will increase, and it would be easier to earn spiritual stones . ”
“I see . ” Gu Qingfeng nodded and expressed his understanding .
Relying on music, or on other arts to make a living was not embarra.s.sing, after all, cultivation required a lot of resources . Buying potions, magic treasures, maintaining formations and all other things required spiritual stones . An average family simply could not afford i . Back in the days, Gu Qingfeng had also sold his arts when he lacked spiritual stones .
Gu Qingfeng asked rather interestedly, “So what’s your value?”
“I…ah…not much, generally, when I’m playing for people, they give me 1,000 spiritual stones . ”
“1,000? So much? ”
Gu Qingfeng’s youthful cultivation years belonged to the end of the Near Ancient Era when the spiritual energy was extremely scarce and spiritual stones were also very valuable . In his impression, 1,000 spiritual stones were absolutely not a small amount in the mortal world .
He wondered whether the spiritual stones depreciated because all things recovered after the Tribulation of Heavens pa.s.sed, or Ouyange Ye’s musical attainments were that high .

“Of course! I’m somewhat famous in the Bluesun Domain . ”
“So are your musical attainments high?”
Gu Qingfeng saw that her cultivation base was just at the Connate Realm, and had not attempted her Foundation Establishment . Although this cultivation base was the best among her peers, it was nothing more than that .
Albeit, the progress of one’s cultivation base was not dependent on musical attainments, but still, music required talent, and just as she said before, bringing out the profundities within a song was very difficult .
“Eh, m-my musical attainments aren’t very high and can only be described as average, but I am special because I can bring the profundities out of two songs made by the Sovereign
“So you’re worth 1,000 spiritual stones just for bringing out some profundities?”
Every song contained a lot of profundities, and if you were able to bring them out, they could lead to a spiritual resonance . If you were able to bring out the concept within a song, it was capable of making people dream throughout the ages .
What makes Gu Qingfeng surprised was that this little girl was worth 1,000 spiritual stones just for bringing out the profundities of some of his songs . This was too absurd!
“What do you mean ‘just for bringing out some profundities’?” Ouyang Ye gave him a vicious glare, “This Sovereign’s songs that I play are the most profound and popular songs of our age . Out of all the musicians present here, only a few of them are able to bring out the profundities within the Sovereign’s songs, do you understand?”
Ouyang Ye threw a melon seed in her mouth and said, ”You know Grandmaster Wen Zhu right? He is the leading figure in the Bluesun Domain’s music circle . He has spent his entire life studying Sovereign’s songs but even so, he has only been able to bring out the profundities within a dozen of the Sovereign’s songs . ”
“Moreover, he is the only person in the entire Bluesun Domain that can bring out the concept within the Sovereign’s The Wind Rises at the Azure Mountain . ”
“Oh, are Gu Tianlang’s songs that difficult?” After carefully thinking about it, the songs he created back in the day were indeed a bit strange, but they shouldn’t have been so difficult .
Ouyang Ye looked at him as if he was a country b.u.mpkin, “You memorized all those songs and yet, you don’t even know how hard are the Sovereign’s songs… Considering your musical attainments, I advise you to spend more time practicing instead of memorizing so many songs, because they are all useless if you can’t play them . ”
Gu Qingfeng shook his head and was about to say something when suddenly, there was a commotion among the people at the venue, and many people stood up and applauded .
What was going on?
“Grandmaster Wen Zhu arrived . . ”
Ouyang Ye stood up with excitement, raised her small head, clapped her hands and greeted him enthusiastically, “This event will be personally reviewed by Grandmaster Wen Zhu . Hehe, if I can get Grandmaster Wen Zhu’s praise, my value will definitely skyrocket . ”
Since entering this villa, Gu Qingfeng had heard the name of Grandmaster Wen Zhu no less than ten times, and he also wanted to see what kind of person this legendary master was .
He looked over and saw a white-bearded and haired old man dressed in a clean white robe, walking amidst the cheers of the crowd . He was accompanied by a blue-haired girl that was about seven or eight years old .
Weren’t they that pair of grandfather and granddaughter from that garden?
“Is he Grandmaster Wen Zhu?”
“Yes!” Ouyang Ye applauded enthusiastically and nodded, “I heard Grandmaster Wen Zhu will choose an excellent young musician to play with him this time . How nice it would be if I could play a song with Grandmaster Wen Zhu . ”
