Chapter 225: Ancient Law Ocarina



As Lin Xun walked along the bustling street, he finally confirmed that, after some observations, the bloody massacre three nights ago indeed had no impact on him. He knew this was due to Xue Jin’s interference.

This undoubtedly made Lin Xun feel a lot more relaxed.

Before long, Lin Xun came to a stop when he passed a rune transmission light screen in the center of the city.

On the light screen, a woman with a perfectly beautiful face and a serious demeanor was speaking very quickly, “Today, we have invited Fang Yu, a renowned advanced rune master in Haze City, to help us evaluate a Snowfury Blade.”

As she was speaking, a dazzlingly bright blade appeared in her grip. “This blade is a treasure personally made by the mysterious Master Xun. I believe many friends are very curious why Master Xun’s Snowfury Blade is significantly stronger than ordinary Snowfury Blades.”

“Now, we invite Elder Fang Yu to explain to us.”

As the light screen flickered, the figure of an old man appeared. He was dressed in a luxurious silk robe and radiated an imposing bearing.

An uproar broke out.

“It’s indeed Elder Fang Yu. He is one of the top figures in Haze City and he is one step away from reaching the rune grandmaster level in terms of his mastery in the art of runes.”

“The mysterious Master Xun has been very secretive and everyone is curious what kind of person he is. Now, even Elder Fang Yu wants to evaluate the aeth tools made from the hands of Master Xun. This is too exciting. Perhaps, we can find out how powerful Master Xun is from this appraisal.”

“Damn it, be quiet. Listen to what Elder Fang Yu has to say.”

Dumbfounded, Lin Xun swept his gaze around and saw many cultivators lift their heads and stare at the giant light screen in curious anticipation.

Lin Xun had never thought that he would have such a resounding reputation in Haze City, let alone be broadcasted on a rune transmission light screen. Furthermore, he had never imagined that a renowned advanced rune master would be invited to appraise his works.

It was no doubt an honor for any rune master, but Lin Xun felt a little strange about it.

He even doubted whether the mysterious Master Xun that everyone was curious about was actually him.

At that moment, Fang Yu cleared his throat on the rune transmission light screen and lifted up the Snowfury Blade, his expression solemn. “To be honest, the first time I saw this blade I was astounded by Master Xun’s marvelous workmanship. Indeed, the Snowfury Blade is just a mid tier human-grade aeth tool and is very commonly found on the market. However, Master Xun, through a unique method, gave new powers to the blade that had long been well-established and recognized. This is undoubtedly a ground-breaking creation.”

Fang Yu couldn’t control his emotions and his eyes blazed fanatically.

As he explained, many cultivators were firmly drawn to the light screen, their eyes wide with unconcealable astonishment.

Master Fang Yu’s choice of words and his high praise of Master Xun made them suspect whether Fang Yu was a long-established advanced rune master.

Rune masters were known to be prideful and proud. It was almost impossible for them to bow their heads and compliment another rune master.

Yet, Fang Yu had unreservedly praised a mysterious rune master highly in an admiring tone, surprising everyone.

This made the many cultivators present more curious whether Master Xun was really as powerful as Fang Yu had said.

However, Lin Xun felt extremely uncomfortable when he heard the compliments. If he didn’t know Fang Yu was an advanced rune master, he would have suspected that he had been bribed to exaggerate his ability.

On the light screen, Fang Yu gestured with frantic enthusiasm as he described the Snowfury Blade in professional rune terminology.

It was very rare to see someone able to explain such boring rune information in such an easy to understand way. It was very witty and interesting and captured everyone’s attention.

However, the more that Lin Xun listened, the more he couldn’t stand it. The way he made the Snowfury Blade was not as exaggerated as Fang Yu had described.

He only made the blade to make money and had no intention of creating anything ground-breaking.

It was very normal for someone to ramble after a person had achieved remarkable success.

However, Fang Yu, an experienced advanced rune master, clearly regarded the mysterious Master Xun as the strongest master in the world and so was very generous in his praise.

If he knew that the mysterious Master Xun was only a fourteen to fifteen year old youngster, how would he feel and would he feel embarrassed about what he had said?

“Young Master, since this Master Xun is so powerful, he may be able to repair your Ancient Law Ocarina.”

Suddenly, a crisp and clear voice caught Lin Xun’s attention.

Ancient Law Ocarina!

Someone still has an ancient musical instrument that has long vanished from the world! Lin Xun exclaimed in his mind.

From a young age, he had seen Mister Lu occasionally take out a palm-sized tear-drop-shaped musical instrument to play.

The noise it produced was sometimes thick and hazy and sometimes deep and resounding. It gave a sense of time like it was from ancient times.

Sometimes it was ethereal and lonely, like a cultivator walking alone in the world and constantly glancing around, unable to find the end of the road.

Sometimes it was simple and pure, like the lofty mountains and flowing streams. It cleared the mind and soothed the soul and spirit like one was bathing in the sounds of heaven.

Mister Lu was very fond of the musical instrument. He would be very happy to be only accompanied by the instrument all his life even if the road had no end.

Only later did Lin Xun learn that it was called Ancient Law Ocarina, a musical instrument that had almost disappeared with time. It had nine tone holes, and each one produced a different note. The number nine represented externality.

The instrument could even produce a magnificent effect if an art cultivator with a remarkable musical talent played it.

However, the Ancient Law Ocarina was extremely special. In order to control it, the performer not only needed to have a tremendous spirit power, but also an innate musical talent.

Mister Lu had once said that the tunes of the Ancient Law Ocarina could kill but also save people. It had endless magical uses but there were very few in the world who could play it.

The reason why the Ancient Law Ocarina had almost become extinct with time was precisely because very few people in the world could control it. Such a mysterious instrument gradually vanished from the world as the time passed.

This was the reason that Lin Xun was so surprised to hear someone mention the Ancient Law Ocarina and he couldn’t help but turn around.

Not far away stood a pretty and elegant young master in an azure robe with red lips and pearly white teeth. Fanning himself, he looked very graceful.

Standing beside him was a well-behaved and bright little maid.

Aware of Lin Xun’s gaze, the azure-robed young master greeted Lin Xun with a smile, seemingly humble and polite.

The little female servant cast Lin Xun a sidelong glance, but she was rather rude. “What are you looking at?” Her voice was crisp and pleasant.

However, the azure-robed young master scolded her, “Ying’er, don’t be rude.”

The little maid pursed her lips. “Little Young Master, that guy’s gaze is strange. He clearly has bad intentions.”

The azure-robed young master reddened with embarrassment and shot a glare at the little servant. “I won\'t bring you out if you keep talking nonsense.”

The little maid’s aggressiveness immediately faded. Although she didn’t say anything else, she still cast occasional vigilant glances over Lin Xun, like he was a bad guy.

“Young master, my servant has always been wilful. Please forgive her rudeness,” the azure-robed young master said apologetically.

“It\'s fine.”

Lin Xun smiled brightly. How would I be bothered about what a little servant said?

Who would have thought that his smile felt like a porcupine’s spike in the little maid’s eyes. She vigilantly reminded, “Young Master, this guy has a chilling smile. Even if he’s not a bad person, he definitely isn’t a good guy.”

Lin Xun was taken aback.

However, the azure-robed young master tapped the little maid’s head with his fan and scolded, “If you say something wrong again, I’m really going to be angry.”

He gave Lin Xun a cupped fist salute from afar and was about to leave with his maid.

However, Lin Xun couldn\'t help but say, “My friend, if you want to repair the Ancient Law Ocarina, maybe you really can try to ask Master Xun.”

The azure-robed young master abruptly halted his footsteps and a strange glint flashed across his eyes. He pondered for a moment and said, “Thank you for your advice. Farewell.”

He left with the maid.

Lin Xun shrugged. He wanted to help him because he was really fond of the Ancient Law Ocarina due to its association with Mister Lu.

Unfortunately, the young master clearly had no interest.

Meanwhile, Fang Yu\'s appraisal of the Snowfury Blade was about to come to an end. “If possible, I really hope to have the opportunity to meet Master Xun. I would have no more regrets in life if I can receive his teachings.”

All the cultivators buzzed like never before. After listening to Fang Yu’s evaluation, they grew more curious about the mysterious Master Xun and they seemed to have already regarded Master Xun as a sage-like figure.

Only Lin Xun shuddered. The old man is too crazy. I just hope that I won’t ever meet him.

Without further delay, Lin Xun hurriedly left and headed to the Rune Master Association.

Not long after Lin Xun left, a woman couldn’t help but cackle in a bronze carriage in the distance. She shook with laughter and almost cried.
