My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare! Chapter 175 - 108: The Phoenix's Kindred Spirit4

The portrait in the Law Code could light up on its own?

He too was encountering this for the first ti.

At this mont, the music in the room gradually faded. Phoenix withdrew her hands from the zither strings and smilingly looked at Li Nuo, asking, "How did I play?"

Regarding her recent performance, although Li Nuo had nurous critiques, he didn't want to dishearten her without reason and said, "It was okay."

Phoenix had already braced herself for a wealth of extravagant praise, yet all she got was "It was okay."

This caused a significant disappointnt in her heart.

Feigning sincerity, she pressed on, "Where did I not play well? Please enlighten ."

Seeing her earnestness, Li Nuo no longer held back and said, "Then I'll be frank. You have many issues in your playing."

Phoenix was taken aback.

Really? She was just being polite, and he actually took it seriously?

Wasn't he completely ignorant about the Music?

She took a deep breath and, trying to calm herself, put on an earnest face and said, "Please, teach ."

Li Nuo looked at her and, after a mont of thought, slowly said, "Honestly, your basic skills barely pass, but while playing, you chase after techniques too much and neglect the emotions. Music has a soul, and your music, while technically sound, lacks a soul; it's rely flaunting skill, which is the lowest of the low..."

"Barely pass?"

"No soul?"

"The lowest of the low?"

Phoenix gazed at Li Nuo, stunned.

Who didn't know that music should have a soul? But to imbue music with a soul, one must be a Master of Music who has imrsed themselves in the art for decades. Wasn't it too harsh to expect her to et the standards of a Grandmaster?

She shifted slightly to make so room, and with a touch of defiance said, "Could you demonstrate what music with a soul sounds like?"

Li Nuo approached the ancient zither and said, "Taking your recent piece as an example, I could tell that it depicted a woman's yearning for her husband. The tune is sorrowful yet holds a hint of solemnity. This wife must have lost her husband in a war, but you only narrated the most superficial story and failed to play out the woman's profound longing for her husband..."

Phoenix looked at Li Nuo in disbelief.

Lovers are easy to find; a soulmate is hard to find.

At that mont, she felt she had found her soulmate.

This piece was her own creation, and only she knew the background of the composition. Li Nuo was the first person to articulate the story behind the piece...

Only a true connoisseur of Music could offer such a precise critique.

While she was still in shock, a mournful and plaintive lody, as if crying and pleading, began to flow from Li Nuo's fingertips.

Phoenix sat there, dazed.

He had listened just once and could already replay the original piece!

The music entered her ears, and she felt as if she beca the woman in the story.

Childhood sweethearts who finally ca together seed poised for happiness when their country declared war against a neighboring nation. On their wedding night, the husband was drafted, leaving the bride alone with the red candles of their bridal chamber...

She thought of him day and night, eagerly awaiting him, enduring three years of hardship, only to receive the devastating news of her husband's death...

A tear fell from Phoenix's beautiful cheek.

At first, it was just one, but then it ford a steady stream.

This piece was composed by her, and she knew the story behind the music more than anyone.

The music penetrated her soul, and she could not control her emotions, a naless sorrow rising in her heart. Unable to bear it any longer, she leaned on Li Nuo's shoulder and cried sorrowfully...
