Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 1242: Perfect Substitute

Chapter 1242: Chapter 1242: Perfect Substitute

They had been together for so long that Ye You understood Qin Sisi well. She wouldn’t take a life unless absolutely necessary.

In the battle to break the formation, the enemy’s tens of thousands must be completely rendered incapable of resistance, allowing them to penetrate without hesitation, seize the mont before the opponent reacts to kill the operators of the other six formations, ensuring those six formations crumble on their own, enabling the forces of the Seven Major Families to continue advancing.

The formation they faced was the key to the battle of breaking the formation; they could only succeed, not fail, or else all prior efforts would be wasted.

"Sisi, leave this task to Teacher Yirou. After breaking the formation, help

kill the seven Earth Demons guarding it." Ye You spoke softly; for the few particularly vicious enemies, Qin Sisi would definitely not be rciful, he was sure of that.

Qin Sisi thought for a mont and nodded in agreent.

After Ye You’s words, she also felt she might not be suited for the task anyway. Since Yi Rou, her foster mother, had sufficient ability to accomplish it, let her handle it, just as Ye You suggested. Besides, it could score a huge rit for the ilan Family.

A few days later, Wen Xuan and Chen Song also arrived. Yi Rou was to perform the final Soul Taker tune. To conserve energy and magic power, the previous tranquilizing song and lullaby needed to be perford by others; Wen Xuan and Chen Song were the best choices.

With nearly ten days of preparation, on a silent night, the plan to break the formation was officially put into motion.

That night was pitch black with no moon or stars. The warriors of the Panhu family had already sealed their ears and divine sense with magic, following orders to avoid harm.

Illuminated by the gentle light of a Luminous Pearl, Qin Sisi and the others climbed onto a towering cloud platform.

The past ten days were mainly spent constructing this tall platform to let the music carry further.

The use of Music Magic to break the formation posed a significant challenge to the participants, as the music must cover a sufficiently wide area and possess strong destructive power.

Chen Song took the lead. He was currently a High-level Magic Spirit, though not of the highest rank. Since losing the Magic Source, he had imrsed himself in music to accompany Yi Rou better, gaining deeper insight into Music Magic than others of his level.

He stood solemnly at the front of the cloud platform, facing Divine Dog City, where it was also dark and nothing could be seen.

Chen Song’s instrunt was a flute, crafted from fine black jade, producing crisp and lodious tones.

He gently brought the flute to his lips and, sowhat cautiously, played the tranquilizing song. The flute’s sound was lodious and flowing like trickling water across the heart, allowing all anxiety and worries to settle.

Gradually, Chen Song began to release the music attribute magic power; purple magic power flowed from his mouth, swirled around the black jade flute, and drifted towards the sky opposite, following the tune of the tranquilizing song.

The flute’s sound was beautiful, but Qin Sisi slightly furrowed her brow. Given Chen Song’s level, he was barely suitable for this task, but with a good performance, there should be no issue.

However, Chen Song seed sowhat too tense, unable to relax, which would diminish the effect of the tranquilizing song and subsequently impact the following plan.

Qin Sisi turned to look at Yi Rou, who indeed watched Chen Song with a worried gaze, her hand nervously adjusting her lute, showing her hesitancy.

It seed she also noticed Chen Song’s performance wasn’t perfect, tempted to guide him slightly, yet afraid of affecting her own state later.

Qin Sisi thought briefly, flipped her wrist to take out the Fairy Snow Zither. Tonight’s battle to break the formation was crucial, if not leading, she should at least help within her capacity, especially since Chen Song needed assistance.

Her fingers gently touched the strings, producing lodious sounds like pearls falling onto a silver plate, complenting Chen Song’s flute beautifully.

However, the zither’s sound was more relaxed and natural, peaceful and serene, giving a more comfortable and wonderful feeling.

Qin Sisi did not use any magic power, rely played casually as if she were a person without magic. Her music seed akin to a guide, helping Chen Song’s tense emotions gradually unwind, his flute playing improving, and the tranquilizing song’s magical power increasing.

Once Chen Song reached a more excellent state, Qin Sisi stopped playing the Fairy Snow Zither, leaving the remaining task for Chen Song to complete alone.

Ye You glanced deeply at her, then walked over to hold her hand.

An hour later, Wen Xuan picked up the Dreamy Snow Jade Flute, beginning the lullaby, even more peaceful than the tranquilizing song, resonating through the night sky.

As Wen Xuan started playing the lullaby, Chen Song paused after ending his piece; the first phase was completed, allowing him to rest a bit.

At this ti, he was pale, panting, his hand clutching the black jade flute trembling slightly, clearly nearly exhausting his magic power.

Ye You imdiately stepped before Chen Song and handed him a Spirit Revitalizing Pill, urging him to rest aside.

Next, it was Wen Xuan’s turn.

Wen Xuan stood at the forefront of the cloud platform, his white robe like snow unstained, the Dreamy Snow Jade Flute in his hand like frost on the moon, under the soft glow of the Luminous Pearl, making his features appear picturesque, gentle as jade.

Wen Xuan was also a High-level Magic Spirit now, but originating from the music-oriented ilan Family, his talent in Music Magic surpassed Chen Song’s, capable of greater potency, which is why he was chosen for the second phase.

A good effect required the lullaby to last for two hours.

Wen Xuan began well; the flute’s sound grew from soft to loud, shallow to deep, seamlessly connecting with Chen Song’s tranquilizing song.

During the subsequent performance, he managed to fully exert the lullaby’s power, turning the purple Magic Light into starlike grains, blending with the lodious flute, drifting across the opposite night’s sky.

But in the final half hour, Wen Xuan started to falter due to his relatively low rank, his magic power waning, leading to unstable breath.

Everyone around grew tense; any interruption in Music Magic would greatly diminish its effect, requiring more ti to regain good results.

In this urgent situation, Qin Sisi once again stepped forward, the sound of the Fairy Snow Zither trickling, perfectly presenting the lullaby’s serene and soothing tune.

Wen Xuan gratefully glanced at Qin Sisi and, after transitioning the music, slowly lowered the Dreamy Snow Jade Flute, collapsing to the ground in weakness.

Ye You also approached and gave him a Spirit Revitalizing Pill, Wen Xuan apologetically bowed to Ye You. Ye You patted his shoulder and said sternly: "Doing your best is all that matters."

He couldn’t bla anything, given such extensive use of Music Magic was an unprecedented challenge for them.
