Chapter 135: Chapter 135 Dark Night Son (Please Tip)
"Brother, someone is looking for you!"
After leaving Divine Thought Hall and just returning to the residence, the voice of Ling Wu could be heard.
"Greetings to Young Master Lingchen!"
A maid clad in a green dress greeted Ling Chen with a slight bow.
Ling Chen returned the greeting with a slight nod.
"Young Master Lingchen, my young mistress invites you to join her at the Drunken Immortal Tavern."
As she spoke, the maid in the green dress handed over an invitation.
The Drunken Immortal Tavern, the most famous tavern in Zhenwu Prefecture.
Therein lies a wine known as the Drunken Immortal Brew.
It was from this wine that the tavern got its name.
Ling Chen took the invitation, smiling, "May I ask who your young mistress is?"
"Piano Girl," replied the maid respectfully.
"Oh, it’s Qin Xianzi!" exclaimed Ling Chen. "Please tell your young mistress that I will definitely arrive on time."
He was also curious to see to what extent Qin Xianzi had integrated her Divine Soul into her piano playing.
"Then we will await Young Master’s honored visit," said the maid hastily.
"Wait a minute."
Suddenly, Ling Wu spoke up.
"Can I come along?"
Ling Wu asked, looking at the maid in the green dress.
Piano Girl had met with the young master of her household once before at Qin Mansion, and now she has invited him again, which might indicate she has certain intentions towards the young master.
"This..."
A hint of embarrassment flashed across the maid’s face. "Miss Ling, my young mistress did not invite you, please forgive us!"
She was only a maid, responsible for delivering messages; she had no authority to make decisions.
Ling Wu nodded, "Oh, I see! Then I guess my brother probably won’t have time to go."
Glancing at Ling Wu, a bitter smile appeared on Ling Chen’s face.
This little girl is getting bold!
Daring to take charge of his decisions too?
The maid in the green dress was taken aback.
Her purpose had been to invite Ling Chen.
If he didn’t go, wouldn’t that be a waste of her young mistress’s kind intentions?
Looking at Ling Wu, the maid said, "Since Miss Ling would like to come along, you can come with us when the time comes. Although there is no invitation, I’m afraid it may be somewhat impolite towards Miss Ling."
"Not at all impolite!"
Seeing her tactful persuasion succeed, Ling Wu was quite pleased with herself.
"Alright, then we will wait for the two of you to arrive."
After bidding farewell with a curtsey, the maid in the green dress took her leave.
...
Night fell.
Two figures appeared at the entrance of the Drunken Immortal Tavern.
After giving their names, they were led to a luxurious private room on the top floor.
"Young Master Ling, Miss Ling!"
Piano Girl promptly rose and greeted them with a graceful bow.
"Qin Xianzi."
Ling Chen and Ling Wu greeted back.
Unlike Ling Chen, it was Ling Wu’s first encounter with Piano Girl’s appearance.
A touch of astonishment crossed her eyes.
Even through her view as a woman, she thought that Qin Xianzi truly lived up to the name of an Immortal.
Especially her striking bosom.
Ling Wu looked down at herself and felt a crushing blow.
"I’m still young!" she comforted herself.
"Please take your seats!"
Qin Xianzi smiled.
Soon after they were seated, exquisite wines and dishes were served.
The maid in the green dress from earlier poured wine for the three of them.
After the third round of drinks.
Piano Girl looked at Ling Chen and said, "Would it please the guests if I played a piece on the zither to add to the enjoyment?"
"Sure!"
Ling Chen nodded.
He too wished to see how much Qin Xianzi’s piano skill had improved.
"Lu’er, take Miss Ling downstairs," said Qin Xianzi.
"Yes, mistress," replied the maid in the green dress respectfully.
Ling Wu refused and said, "No, I want to listen too."
Having followed with such effort, if she were to leave, what would she do if the young master fell under the enchantment of this demon?
Ling Chen looked at Ling Wu and solemnly said, "Xiao Wu, this time the Piano Immortal’s melody is imbued with Divine Soul Telekinesis. Are you sure you want to listen?"
"The Piano Immortal is also a Divine Thought Master?"
Ling Wu was startled.
"Yes."
Piano Girl said with a smile.
"Alright, I’ll leave first."
Ling Wu glanced at the Piano Immortal with some apprehension.
After Ling Wu left, only Ling Chen and the Piano Girl remained in the private room.
"I’m going to start now."
The Piano Girl said with a smile.
"Mhm."
Ling Chen nodded.
"Hum!"
The Piano Girl plucked the strings, and a melody arose from the jade zither.
Soon, the piece ended.
"Young Master Ling, what do you think?"
The Piano Girl asked smilingly.
Ling Chen nodded slightly and admired, "The Piano Immortal indeed lives up to the name of Immortal. I’m afraid that even Divine Thought Masters who’ve just entered the early stages of the Solid Realm would inadvertently fall under the Immortal’s enchantment if they’re not careful."
Hearing this, the smile deepened on the Piano Girl’s face: "I must also thank the young master for the guidance."
"Not at all, the Immortal is too modest."
Ling Chen waved his hand.
"Young Master, it seems that you were not affected by my piano music at all. Could it be that your Divine Soul cultivation is not inferior to mine? Let this humble one guess, is it mid-Solid Realm?"
The Piano Girl said with a smile.
"Hehe."
Ling Chen neither confirmed nor denied.
His own Divine Soul cultivation was not something he needed to let others know.
"Could it be that this humble one’s guess is wrong, and the young master has already advanced to the late stage of the Solid Realm?"
The Piano Girl’s voice carried a hint of shock.
She had reached the late stage of the Solid Realm at her age, and that too with the help of a Soul Ascending Pill.
And Ling Chen was several years younger than her, yet his Divine Soul cultivation was not inferior to hers?
Just how terrifying was this person’s talent!
Ling Chen did not wish to dwell on this topic and changed the subject, "Did the Piano Immortal seek me out just to play a melody for me?"
"You truly are astute, Young Master!"
The Piano Girl nodded.
"Young Master, do you know that I am a person of the Dark Night?"
The Piano Girl stated something astonishing.
"Dark Night?"
Ling Chen’s pupils shrank.
Of course, he knew of Dark Night.
He had even clashed with a silver-ranked assassin from Dark Night.
"Yes."
The Piano Girl nodded: "I am not just a person from Dark Night, but also the Dark Night Son in Dark Night!"
"Dark Night Son?"
Ling Chen frowned.
This was something he had never heard of.
The Piano Girl stood up, smiling, "The Dark Night Son, put simply, is a candidate to be the heir of Dark Night."
Ling Chen stared at the Piano Immortal and said, "Aren’t you afraid I’ll inform on you? Someone who might become the ruler of Dark Night in the future, that would be a great accomplishment."
"You won’t."
The Piano Girl said with utter confidence.
"Why is that?"
Ling Chen asked back.
"Because your surname is Ling, and your father is Ling Tianxing!"
The Piano Girl said with a smile.
Ling Chen was shaken inside and continued, "Even if my father is Ling Tianxing, so what?"
"Because I know your father’s whereabouts."
The Piano Girl said with a smile: "And, you should know too, that your father is still alive, right?"
Ling Chen was even more surprised, "How do you know?"
The Piano Girl smiled faintly, "That Sealing God Jade in your possession, it actually comes from our Dark Night. Even though the Sealing God Jade is within your containment ring, we people of Dark Night have a way to sense it."
A look of shock crossed Ling Chen’s eyes.
The Sealing God Jade, he had never mentioned it to anyone, not even Ling Wu knew about it. Yet, the Piano Immortal knew so clearly.
"Tell me, what’s your purpose in looking for me?"
Ling Chen forced himself to calm down.
The Piano Girl said with a smile, "Young Master Ling, my purpose is simple, hoping that you could join our Dark Night. With your talent, coupled with Dark Night’s cultivation, your future self could probably contend with Xia Jiuyou."
Seeing Ling Chen’s silence, the Piano Girl continued, "Young Master Ling, that Soul Ascending Pill was a small token from our Dark Night."
