Chapter 1025: Chapter 177: Mother and Daughter Reunited
Ninth Main Summoner, Hu Jiusheng!
Upon hearing this na, Yun Sheng felt as if her heart was struck by a heavy object, trembling fiercely.
Mother, she finally received news about her mother.
Yun Sheng had thought it would be a struggle to find Hu Jiusheng, but unexpectedly, among the thirteen main summoners, there was only one woman.
This saved her a lot of guesswork.
"Thank you, Seventh Main Summoner, I will be careful and try not to offend those main summoners," Yun Sheng forced herself to contain her excitent, contemplating how she could create an opportunity to reunite with her mother, Hu Jiusheng.
However, the Seventh Main Summoner also ntioned that the Ninth Main Summoner is famously elusive, sotis even the Red Robe Summoning Emperor cannot find her.
"Master Yan Yun, if you have ti, why not help
find a suitable demon beast? You see, as a summoner, not having a suitable Holy Beast contracted beast is quite embarrassing. As long as you help
cultivate a suitable Holy Beast, I will surely reward you handsoly," the Seventh Main Summoner still unyielding, wanted Yun Sheng to help him cultivate a new Holy Beast.
Of course, Yun Sheng would not agree, she made a few perfunctory remarks and finally sent off the Seventh Main Summoner.
In the Linglong Beast Tower, Bo Bo Sheep and Gold Coin, who had been cooped up for several days, expressed a lot of complaints, especially Gold Coin that felt uncomfortable for a mont without Yun Sheng by its side.
Yun Sheng thought for a mont, and since she was now in the Demon Beast Forest, she did not need to worry about anything, so she simply let the two beasts out.
"Bo Bo, dear master, the zither sound you played earlier was very nice; Bo Bo and Gold Coin both want to hear it," Bo Bo Sheep felt that the master’s zither sound was very pleasant.
Golden Qilin, Ye Beiming, felt the sa way.
He had accompanied Yun Sheng in learning the Emperor’s Song, rembering clearly that Yun Sheng was initially clueless about music.
When Yun Sheng first learned the Emperor’s Song, her zither skills were quite ordinary.
But ever since she experienced the battle at Taiyuan City and killed the Taiyuan City Lord, her zither skills improved drastically, perhaps due to so realization during that ti, though Golden Qilin, Ye Beiming, was not sure, he believed Yun Sheng must have grasped sothing then.
Ye Beiming naturally could not guess that Yun Sheng had gained insight after seeing the true form of Emperor Huoyan (Emperor Shennong).
Unfortunately, the people of Dihong City were stingy; if Yun Sheng could enter the Emperor’s Tomb and gain the last few Chapters of the Emperor’s Song, her zither skills would surely improve even more.
Seeing Bo Bo Sheep being proud, Yun Sheng couldn’t help but find it amusing, and since the weather was nice, she took out her zither and started to play a tune.
The lody of the Emperor’s Song was still lodious and drifted far away.
Touching the strings, Yun Sheng recalled a scene from Immortal Residence Icefall City.
At that ti, she didn’t know the masked female prisoner was her own mother, and this zither was made by her and her mother together.
Thinking of Hu Jiusheng, Yun Sheng’s music unknowingly changed, thoughts of Hu Jiusheng and their family of three, who hadn’t reunited for eighteen years, flooded her mind.
The zither sound inevitably beca more lancholic.
Within the Summoning Court, the Ninth Main Summoner, Hu Jiusheng, had just returned from a mission.
Upon hearing the zither sound, she stopped in her tracks.
This lody was so familiar; she had heard similar tunes in Icefall City, but compared to then, this music had progressed both in mory and tone.
Hu Jiusheng’s beautiful eyes changed, suddenly rembering sothing.
Could it be, she was in Penglai?
Hu Jiusheng’s heart tightened.
There was no mistake; only that ice zither could produce such a lodious sound, and only that person could play such an Emperor’s Song.
Yun Sheng, she was in Penglai.
Damn it, why did she co to Penglai?
The Red Robe Summoning Emperor, couldn’t wait to take her life.
Flustered, for the first ti, the Ninth Main Summoner showed panic.
She grabbed the guard next to her and demanded: "Who is playing the zither?"
The guard looked terrified; he had never seen the Ninth Main Summoner show such an expression.
Stamring, the guard said: "Ninth Main Summoner, I don’t know, I heard that the Seventh Main Summoner recently recruited a new summoner. The one playing the zither is the newly arrived cultivation summoner, said to be playing it to heal the demon beasts in the Demon Beast Forest."
"Nonsense, the Seventh Main Summoner is getting more and more out of hand, daring to bring anyone into the Demon Beast Forest," a stern voice ca from behind.
Hu Jiusheng heard the voice and loosened her grip on the guard.
In front, stood a stern old man, around five or six decades old, even older than the Red Robe Summoning Emperor.
The guard saw the old man and imdiately called out respectfully: "First Main Summoner."
The person was indeed the First Main Summoner, second only in status to the Red Robe Summoning Emperor within the Summoning Court.
"Ninth Main Summoner, I didn’t expect you to be interested in music too?" The First Main Summoner knew little about the Ninth Main Summoner; from his impression, the Ninth Main Summoner rarely got so excited like today.
"Not interested at all, the zither music is too noisy, making one upset and irritable," Hu Jiusheng replied coldly, not showing politeness even to the First Main Summoner. She said no more, and left on her own.
"Ungrateful woman, thinking that just because the Summoning Emperor favors you, you can act recklessly, wait and see how cocky you will be in a few days," the First Main Summoner muttered through gritted teeth, displeased as he watched Hu Jiusheng leave.
Yun Sheng finished playing a song in the Demon Beast Forest, Bo Bo Sheep and Gold Coin beside her squinted their eyes, looking content.
This rare harmonious scene didn’t last long before Gold Coin’s ears perked, and it stood up alertly, watching a certain direction in the forest.
Soone walked out from behind the bushes.
Seeing the person, Yun Sheng’s fingers stumbled on the strings, a bright red drop of blood stood out.
Hu Jiusheng’s gaze changed slightly, her eyes landing on the unfamiliar female summoner’s face.
Not her?
It was her!
Bloodline worked at this mont; despite the disguise magic, Hu Jiusheng imdiately recognized the disguised Yun Sheng.
"Mother..." Yun Sheng faltered, about to speak.
"You shouldn’t be here, leave Penglai imdiately," Hu Jiusheng cut Yun Sheng off, not giving her a chance to speak.
"I am Yun Sheng, I am your daughter," Yun Sheng couldn’t help but step forward.
"Don’t co closer, I don’t care who you are, I’ve forgotten the past. Leave Penglai at once, or I will personally report your identity to the Summoning Emperor," Hu Jiusheng sternly warned Yun Sheng, raising her magic wand and pointing at Yun Sheng, showing no familial affections.
Hu Jiusheng’s expression was solemn, not like joking.
Yun Sheng didn’t expect that the mother-daughter reunion would be like this.
