715: Chapter 715 Demonic Sound Body!
But Ye Chen was not looking at these.
He was looking inside Lee Yoon-hee.
The energy center.
The meridians.
The trajectory of the flow of energy.
The next second.
Ye Chen's pupils suddenly contracted.
He saw it.
Deep within Lee Yoon-hee's energy center, a very special power was surging.
That power was not True Qi, nor was it spiritual power; it was a form of energy he had never seen before.
It was like a ball of mist, and yet like a patch of light, slowly rotating within Lee Yoon-hee's energy center.
Whenever her fingers touched the piano keys, that power would flow along her meridians to her fingertips and then spread out with the musical notes.
This power was harmless to ordinary people; it could even make people feel physically and mentally pleasant and relaxed.
And the reason for this was...
Lee Yoon-hee was just an ordinary person with no cultivation.
Once she had cultivation, that power would not be so friendly.
Ye Chen took a deep breath, a trace of astonishment flashing in his eyes.
This is...
The legendary Demonic Sound Physique!
He had seen records of this physique in the memory fragments of the Houtu Inheritance.
The Demonic Sound Physique is rare in ten thousand years, born with resonance to sound, and capable of turning sound into power.
For those possessing this physique, if they are ordinary people, at most they have outstanding musical talent and can play the piano well.
But if they embark on the path of cultivation, entering the Dao through sound...
Then the future is limitless.
One thought to become a demon, one thought to become an immortal.
If on the righteous path, one song can bring peace to the world.
If on the demonic path, one song can slaughter a million soldiers.
Ye Chen moved his gaze away from Lee Yoon-hee and swept a glance across the intoxicated guests, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
These people only thought the music was moving, not knowing that their souls were being gently caressed by a young girl's musical notes.
Ye Chen withdrew his gaze, picked up the champagne on the table, and took a small sip.
Interesting.
A tiny place like South Korea actually hides such a treasure.
And looking at her, she has no idea she possesses this kind of physique.
"Mr. Ye, what is wrong?" Kim Zhilong noticed Ye Chen's oddity and asked cautiously.
Ye Chen put down his wine glass and said indifferently, "It is nothing."
Kim Zhilong dared not ask more and quickly shut his mouth.
On the stage, the song ended.
The last note slowly dissipated in the banquet hall.
The whole room was quiet for a full three seconds.
Then.
"Clatter—"
Thunderous applause resounded throughout the banquet hall.
Everyone was clapping, some even stood up, their eyes full of admiration.
Lee Yoon-hee stood up from the piano, bowed slightly to the stage, with a faint smile on her face.
Chairman Lee Seung-heon walked onto the stage and took the microphone handed over by the host.
"Thank you all for gracing us with your presence tonight to attend my granddaughter's coming-of-age ceremony."
"Yunxi has been without parents since she was young, and I raised her myself."
"That she can have today is inseparable from the care and support of everyone here over the years."
"As her grandfather, I thank you all here."
He bowed deeply.
The applause rang out in the hall again.
Lee Yoon-hee stood beside her grandfather, her gaze sweeping over the unfamiliar faces in the audience, and suddenly stopped in a certain direction.
She saw Ye Chen.
A strange young man, holding a glass of champagne, was looking at her.
Those eyes were very calm, so calm that it did not seem like he was looking at a beautiful woman, but rather like he was appreciating... a rare treasure.
Lee Yoon-hee's heart skipped a beat inexplicably.
She quickly moved her gaze away, a faint blush appearing on her face.
Chairman Lee Seung-heon continued, "Next is the free exchange time, please enjoy the fine wine and food tonight."
The music started again, this time it was melodious jazz.
The guests began to move around, gathering in groups of three or five to talk.
Chairman Lee Seung-heon took Lee Yoon-hee's hand and walked off the stage, heading towards the crowd.
Kim Zhilong quickly nudged Ye Chen's arm and lowered his voice, "Mr. Ye, Chairman Li is coming over with Miss Yunxi."
Ye Chen raised his eyes and saw Chairman Lee Seung-heon walking towards him, with Lee Yoon-hee following behind him, head lowered, like a shy little girl.
"Instructor Ye."
Chairman Lee Seung-heon walked in front of Ye Chen with a smile, "Please forgive me for any lack of hospitality."
"Chairman Li is too polite." Ye Chen stood up and nodded slightly.
Chairman Lee Seung-heon stepped aside, letting Lee Yoon-hee out from behind him, "Yunxi, this is Instructor Ye from the Dragon Country, greet him."
Lee Yoon-hee looked up, glanced at Ye Chen, then quickly lowered her head, and bowed.
"Hello, Instructor Ye, I am Lee Yoon-hee."
Her voice was soft, like cotton candy.
Ye Chen looked at her, "Hello, you played well."
Lee Yoon-hee's face turned even redder.
"Thank you for the compliment, Instructor Ye."
Kim Zhilong stood to the side, a flash of triumph in his eyes.
He could tell that Ye Chen was interested in this Lee Yoon-hee.
As expected!
This man, just like the rumors, is a lecherous villain.
As long as one plays to his preferences, one can deal with him well...
Piao Zhenying also walked over, followed by a young man in his early twenties wearing a white suit, his hair combed slick and shiny, exuding the aura of a playboy.
"Chairman Li, congratulations, congratulations."
Piao Zhenying cupped his hands, "This is my son, Park Changfan, who just returned from studying in the USA, specially here to congratulate Miss Yunxi."
Park Changfan stepped forward, his gaze falling on Lee Yoon-hee, a flash of greed in his eyes.
"Miss Yunxi, hello, I am Park Changfan."
He reached out his hand, wanting to shake hands with Lee Yoon-hee.
Lee Yoon-hee glanced at him, stepped back half a step, and did not reach out.
This man gave her a very uncomfortable feeling...
However.
Little did they know.
Ye Chen saw all of this in his eyes.
He knew very well...
The Demonic Sound Physique possesses the ability to distinguish good from evil, capable of capturing whether the other party has good intentions or malice towards oneself.
And obviously.
Piao Zhenying's son, at a glance, is not a good thing.
Otherwise...
Lee Yoon-hee would not have such a big reaction.
Park Changfan's hand froze in mid-air, his expression somewhat ugly.
Piao Zhenying quickly tried to smooth things over, "Yunxi is thin-skinned, Changfan, don't mind it."
Park Changfan withdrew his hand and laughed dryly, "I don't mind, I don't mind."
But his gaze was still fixed on Lee Yoon-hee, like a venomous snake staring at its prey.
However.
Just at this moment, Ye Chen looked at Lee Yoon-hee and asked, "Miss Li, are you interested in cultivation?"
He came here to see what Kim Zhilong was up to.
Now.
Having encountered such a rare physique in Lee Yoon-hee, he naturally would not let it go.
If he could recruit this little girl into the Ancient Tomb Sect...
Tsk tsk tsk!
The Ancient Tomb Sect could surely continue to grow stronger!
"Ah?"
Lee Yoon-hee was stunned, then asked in astonishment, "Cultivation? Can... can I cultivate?"
Having lived for eighteen years, she never knew she could cultivate.
Since she was a child, her grandfather had hired countless famous teachers to teach her piano, painting, etiquette, and multiple languages, but no one had ever told her she could cultivate.
Chairman Lee Seung-heon was also stunned, and then his brows furrowed tightly.
"Mr. Ye, what do you mean by that?"
He remembered...
He had once had people check his granddaughter's physical condition because her musical talent far exceeded her peers.
But without exception, they all shook their heads and said his granddaughter could not cultivate.
But now.
Someone actually came out and told him his granddaughter could cultivate???
Ye Chen picked up the champagne glass and took a small sip, "I mean, she can cultivate."
As soon as these words came out, Chairman Lee Seung-heon's pupils contracted slightly.
He subconsciously looked at his granddaughter, a flash of complex light in his eyes.
Although the Li family is a prestigious family in South Korea, in the cultivation world, they cannot even be considered third-rate.
The family's foundation is too shallow, the most powerful expert is only at the Heavenly Realm Peak, and they don't even have a decent cultivation technique.
If Yunxi could really cultivate, that would undoubtedly be a huge, great thing.
But the problem is...
He had already asked people to check, and none of them were optimistic!
Chairman Lee Seung-heon took a deep breath, suppressing the waves in his heart, and asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Ye, what you said... is it true?"
Ye Chen put down the champagne glass and looked at him.
"What benefit would I get from lying to you?"
Chairman Lee Seung-heon fell silent.
Indeed, Ye Chen had no reason to lie to him.
With his status and position, he doesn't need to lie to anyone in South Korea.
A look of uncontrollable joy gradually appeared on Chairman Lee Seung-heon's face, and his eyes even turned slightly red.
He turned around, held Lee Yoon-hee's hands with both of his, his voice trembling.
"Yunxi, did you hear that? You can cultivate!"
Lee Yoon-hee was startled by her grandfather's reaction.
But soon.
An indescribable emotion surged in her heart.
Her grandfather had worried his heart out for her all these years.
Since she was weak and sickly from childhood, her grandfather had sought medical treatment everywhere; if South Korea couldn't cure her, he went to the Dragon Country; if the Dragon Country couldn't cure her, he went to the USA, almost traveling half the globe.
Later, when her health improved and she started learning the piano, her grandfather hired famous teachers everywhere, never caring about how much money it cost.
Now, someone told her she could cultivate, and her grandfather was even happier than she was.
Lee Yoon-hee's eyes also became a bit moist, and she nodded gently, "Grandpa, I heard."
Chairman Lee Seung-heon nodded repeatedly, turned to look at Ye Chen, and bowed deeply.
"Mr. Ye, thank you!", "Thank you for telling me this news!"
