176: Chapter 176 The Howling Moon Fox Clan, the Crown Prince's Followers

"Giggle! I didn't expect Sister Gu to host the Divine Sound Gathering today. Naturally, I had to come and support you!"

The person had not yet arrived, but her voice came first.

Just by hearing her voice, many young Prodigies within the Heavenly Sound Tower lost their composure.

The person who arrived was a woman wearing a purple moon high-slit Fairy dress, her pair of flawless jade feet exposed casually, with charming fox eyes. Behind her, five fox tails swayed elegantly in the air.

"It is the Saintess of the Cold Moon Pavilion—Su Yuling!"

"Tsk tsk! I didn't expect even her to come!"

"It is said that this Cold Moon Pavilion was created by people from the Howling Moon Fox Clan. I heard the Goddess of the Howling Moon Fox Clan is currently in the pavilion as well..."

"This fox spirit is as seductive as ever!"

The surrounding Prodigies whispered among themselves, and many ill-intentioned gazes fell upon Su Yuling.

"Hiss—"

At this moment, the neighing of a Heavenly Dragon Horse rang out from outside the building. A youth wearing golden battle armor, holding a heavy blade, with an unruly expression, walked in.

"It is the true disciple of the Mad Blade Sect—Nie Feng! It is said that he is now a follower of the Crown Prince."

"This Nie Feng possesses an Intermediate Emperor Physique—the Mad Gale Heaven Blade Physique. It is rumored that when he was born, a divine weapon descended from the heavens and chose him as its master on its own, which is this heavy blade!"

"Nie Feng is nothing surprising; he is merely sent by His Highness the Crown Prince to watch over Fairy Qin."

"Indeed. Now everyone in the entire Jue Jian Imperial Dynasty knows that the Crown Prince has his heart set on Fairy Qin. Anyone who dares to provoke Fairy Qin is courting disaster from the Crown Prince and will not have a good ending."

"Speaking of which, this Crown Prince is also a Divine Being. Suddenly, from a widely known trash, he became..."

"There is no need to say these things; we know it in our hearts. Just don't let the Crown Prince's people hear you, or your little life won't be saved."

Lin Ran listened silently to the discussions of the surrounding young Prodigies, while silently calculating in his heart.

First is the Saintess of the Cold Moon Pavilion—Su Yuling. Listening to what these young Prodigies said, this Cold Moon Pavilion is a force created by people from the Howling Moon Fox Clan, so this Su Yuling must also be from the Howling Moon Fox Clan!

If he remembered correctly, Su Xiyue once told him that it was a Supreme of the Howling Moon Fox Clan who schemed to frame his Master Baby!

And this Supreme is none other than the Goddess of the Howling Moon Fox Clan!

Not too much time has passed; the Goddess of the Howling Moon Fox Clan should not have reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm yet.

However, even if the other party reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm, Lin Ran would not be afraid.

With his current Physical Body strength, even a Quasi-Emperor expert could be forcefully suppressed and killed!

"It seems that the revenge for Master Baby must be carried out by me, her Rebellious Disciple!"

Lin Ran narrowed his eyes slightly.

Then there is this so-called His Highness the Crown Prince. Listening to people talk, it seems the Crown Prince of the Jue Jian Imperial Dynasty was once a widely known trash?

Although what that person was about to say next was interrupted by others, Lin Ran could guess with his toes that the Crown Prince of the Jue Jian Imperial Dynasty must have suddenly risen, Cultivated with smooth sailing, and slapped everyone in the face.

"Was he subjected to Possession by an old monster, or did he encounter some kind of Heaven-Defying Opportunity?"

Lin Ran pondered secretly in his heart.

Of course, relying on just guessing, he certainly couldn't figure out why the Crown Prince of the Jue Jian Imperial Dynasty suddenly rose to power.

All of this will have to wait until he meets the person himself to draw a conclusion.

And just as he was lost in thought, a woman wearing clean white plain clothes, with gentle eyebrows and eyes, as picturesque as a poem, slowly appeared.

She parted her red lips slightly and smiled gently, saying: "Thank you all for coming to the gathering. Before the Divine Sound Gathering begins, Liu Qin will first present a song for everyone!"

After speaking, Gu Liuqin waved her hand and took out an ancient zither of extraordinary quality.

She skillfully used her ten fingers to pluck the strings quickly, playing bursts of beautiful zither music, as if letting people immerse themselves in an illusion, intoxicated.

"Boring."

Meng Qing shook her head and muttered.

"Barely passable."

Xuan Zhixue also felt bored.

Lin Ran did not speak, just drank his tea calmly.

For him, who had just comprehended the Seven Absolute Arts of Music, this song by Gu Liuqin was, in his view, just so-so.

Creating an illusion with zither music is indeed quite remarkable, but in his eyes, it counts for nothing.

The song ended, and the Prodigies inevitably began to offer compliments one after another.

Gu Liuqin smiled slightly and spoke in a sweet voice:

"The purpose of Liu Qin hosting the Divine Sound Gathering is actually to find a soulmate who can Cultivate the Sound Dao with me."

"I wonder who is willing to compete with me in zither playing?"

As the words fell, the whole place suddenly became silent, so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.

In the entire Imperial Province, who does not know that the zither arts of the Heavenly Sound Tower are remarkable?

And as the Goddess of the Heavenly Sound Tower, Gu Liuqin has obtained the true teachings of the Heavenly Sound Tower Master; currently, only the Heavenly Sound Tower Master can suppress her in terms of Sound Dao.

They would not be so bored as to compete with Gu Liuqin in zither playing.

Their purpose in coming to attend the Divine Sound Gathering was to witness Gu Liuqin's peerless beauty and listen to Gu Liuqin's beautiful zither music; that was satisfying enough.

"I heard that this time, as long as one defeats the Fairy in the Sound Dao, one can obtain a heavenly sword token?"

The Saintess of the Cold Moon Pavilion, Su Yuling, suddenly smiled and said.

"Yes. I only Cultivate the Sound Dao, and this heavenly sword token is useless to me, so I brought it out as a reward for defeating me in the Sound Dao."

"What, is Sister Su interested in competing with me in zither playing?"

Gu Liuqin raised her eyes calmly and smiled.

"This sister is untalented, but recently I accidentally cultivated a zither art, so I would like to compete with Sister Gu."

Su Yuling giggled and said.

"Since when did even a fox spirit know how to play the zither?"

"Is Fairy Qin someone you can challenge? It should be This Saint who does so."

Lin Ran yawned lazily and said.

Su Yuling's eyes suddenly became ice-cold to the bone, and she turned sharply to look at Lin Ran.

However, when she saw Lin Ran's appearance, her breathing could not help but hitch.

But, Lin Ran calling her a fox spirit still made her very angry in her heart.

Although with Lin Ran's looks, he had already been spared from the death penalty in her heart, the death penalty could be spared, but the living punishment could not be avoided!

"This Young Master, how have I offended you, that you would insult me so?!"

Su Yuling said in an icy tone.

"I beg you to stop talking. Don't you know that as soon as you open your mouth, the whole building is filled with your fox stench?"

"You are not yet the Goddess of the Howling Moon Fox Clan, and the fox stench on you is already so heavy."

"It is imaginable that as the Goddess of the Howling Moon Fox Clan, Su Qingyi, the fox spirit Bloodline in her body is extremely pure, so the fox stench on her should be even stronger, right?"

Lin Ran smiled playfully.

Once these words were spoken, all the Prodigies in the audience were stunned, and the smiles on their faces instantly stiffened.

Originally, when they heard the first half of Lin Ran's words, they were still secretly mocking underneath.

As a result, now, they were completely stunned.

It turned out that Lin Ran's intention was not in the wine; the one he really wanted to insult was the Goddess of the Howling Moon Fox Clan!

You must know that the Howling Moon Fox Clan is a top-tier force in the Desolate Province, and it is said that there are Divine experts sitting in the clan!

Lin Ran dared to publicly insult Su Qingyi like this; isn't this seeking death?!
