Chapter 770: 770 Three Ancient Zithers Gather! [2 More Updates]

"..."

The entire scene fell into instant silence.

The name Lin Baiwei wasn’t actually widely known, at least not among the ordinary younger generation of the Lin Family.

Although Lin Baiwei was the seventh senior of the Heavenly Sound Sect and one of the founding ancestors of the Lin Family, in the vast world of Jianghu where heroes abound, those who can have their names recorded in history are already outstanding, and Lin Baiwei seems somewhat overshadowed amid such talented figures.

The People of Lin Family were bewildered, exchanging confused looks.

Only Lin Shiyuan in the high seat suddenly gripped the armrest of the chair.

"Crack, crack..."

The iron armrest turned into powder.

The atmosphere instantly condensed, oppressively silent.

Lin Baiwei didn’t diminish the presence of Shui Yunqing like Su Han Yan did.

Nor did she ever feel any jealousy towards Lin Fanyin, but Ye Wanlan’s words somehow hit her sore spot.

In this modern high-tech society, no one knew she once lived in the same era with Princess Yongning, Xiang Lan, and Lin Fanyin, the Sect Leader of Heavenly Sound Sect.

Back in that era, naturally, no one would compare her to these two.

But now in modern times, plenty do.

Some praise her as the next Princess Yongning, while others say she’s the second Lin Fanyin.

These comparisons might be made without intent, but they have meaning to those listening.

Lin Baiwei was well aware she wasn’t as good as these two, but she could say that about herself, others could not!

"So from the beginning, you were pretending to be weak to deceive the strong." Lin Baiwei’s gaze was icy and violent to the extreme, murderous intent surged like raging tides, "Even I underestimated you."

Just based on the fact that only Ye Wanlan knew her true identity in three hundred years, Ye Wanlan’s wisdom was absolutely above hers.

This woman is not just an average person, she cannot be left alive!

"Pretending to be weak to deceive the strong?" Ye Wanlan chuckled lightly at these words, "It seems you’re quite confident, comparing yourself to a tiger."

This remark further fueled Lin Baiwei’s anger.

But her expression remained calm, she only stood up slowly: "All Lin Family members, retreat."

The People of Lin Family flinched and retreated, widening their eyes, clearly unable to comprehend the scene before them.

"What does Ye Wanlan mean? Why did she call the Family Head Lin Baiwei?"

"I... I know who Lin Baiwei is! Isn’t Lin Baiwei our Lin Family’s first ancestor?"

"What? I actually didn’t notice this name when I went to the ancestral hall to pay respects."

"Alas, Ancestor Fanyin was too outstanding, overshadowing the brilliance of others."

Though the conversations were quiet, how could Lin Baiwei not hear them with her sharp ears?

She only felt the fury in her chest surging like waves, unable to calm.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Baiwei suddenly leapt forward towards Ye Wanlan, striking directly at her forehead with a palm.

"Boom!"

"Zeng——"

The sound of a zither resonated gracefully, like rain descending from the heavens and falling onto a withered field.

It refreshed the heart, delighting the spirit.

And just as this zither sound fell, a layer of white light screen appeared around Ye Wanlan.

Lin Baiwei’s attack hit this light screen and was instantly dissolved, turning into nothingness.

"Family Head!" Steward Lin was shocked, "Family Head, this is..."

Everyone could see the girl had a Seven-stringed Zither in her hand.

The white light naturally emanated from this Zither, enveloping her and blocking Lin Baiwei’s attack.

Even the Lin Family Elders Council was left speechless.

Lin Baiwei’s strike, even they would meet instant demise.

How could a mere Zither block it?

Unless this Zither was...

"Primordial Lost Sound Zither!" Lin Shiyuan’s gaze turned icy, "Indeed, this Zither is in your hands, my previous deductions were correct!"

It’s just that during this period, Ye Wanlan had repeatedly lowered her guard.

She lastly deduced that Lin Weilan gave the Secluded Zither to Lin Qin because Ye Wanlan couldn’t cultivate with a Zither, only a Pipa.

Ye Wanlan did not respond, her fingers resting on the zither strings.

"Do you think that with the Primordial Lost Sound Zither, I couldn’t do anything to you!" Lin Shiyuan waved her sleeve, and the Sun and Moon Ruyi Zither appeared in everyone’s sight, "I want to see, without Vajra Cover, how you will dodge!"

"Zeng Zeng!"

A short and urgent zither sound rang out, like drums and swords clashing on the battlefield, vibrating pain into the eardrums.

Sun and Moon Ruyi Zither truly worthy as the top among the Three Ancient Zithers, its power immensely strong.

The People of Lin Family with slightly weaker cultivation, upon hearing this zither sound, couldn’t help but sink to the ground, with limbs trembling constantly.

Steward Lin also fell to his knees, terrified.

Lin Shiyuan... a terrifying prowess.

However, these sound waves, upon contact with the white light screen, were all absorbed one by one.

Ye Wanlan just sat quietly on the ground, gently strumming the zither, without any panic.

"So what if you have the Primordial Lost Sound Zither?" Lin Shiyuan pressed down her fury, sneering, "Only knowing defense, you’ll eventually lose!"

She certainly hadn’t exerted her full strength.

If she exhausted too much force while killing Ye Wanlan, how would she confront the alliance of Xiang and Huo families?

But after all, she had lived for over three hundred years, the accumulated power from multiple body possessions, how could a girl under twenty like Ye Wanlan oppose?

Today, she would teach Ye Wanlan what the real Heavenly Music Method was!

Lin Baiwei’s fingers moved so swiftly they became mere afterimages, a whole piece of afterimages that completely obscured the exact positions of her fingers.

"Zeng Zeng!"

"Zeng Zeng Zeng!"

Zither sounds poured out one after another, under these intense sound waves, the seven elders of the Lin Family were shaken until they bled from the seven orifices, even if these sound waves weren’t meant to attack them!

"Swoosh swoosh—"

Sound waves stirred the air, transforming into blades, coming from all directions, all rushing towards Ye Wanlan, with the momentum of thousands of swords striking like thunder.

Ye Wanlan finally raised her eyes.

"Boom——!"

Airflows clashed, sound waves surged, space trembled, heaven and earth all shook.

Thick smoke exploded, blinding everyone.

Such a massive attack, even Xiang Family’s ancestors would be wounded.

Ye Wanlan, though protected by the Primordial Lost Sound Zither, once her inner strength was exhausted, she could no longer use the Primordial Lost Sound Zither.

However, reality completely differed from Lin Baiwei’s expectations.

As the smoke cleared, startled cries arose.

Ye Wanlan’s hand held yet another Seven-stringed Zither.

Moreover, she was playing two zithers simultaneously!

This was simply incredible!

Lin Baiwei’s voice squeezed through her teeth: "Withered, Wood, Dragon, Melody, Zither!"

At this moment——

The Heavenly Sound Sect’s Three Ancient Zithers finally gathered!
