Chapter 39: Dumbfounded
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Blood overflowed from the corner of Muyan’s mouth, and the pain attacked her body with its deadly fangs and claws. However, Muyan was like a queen at this moment, scorning everything between heaven and earth, and no one could stop her.
“I don’t care about dominating worlds or obtaining inheritance to your God-Musician class. But if anyone dares to separate me from my Xiaobao, I’ll destroy heaven and earth and won’t stop until I die!”
Muyan looked sideways at the broken zither in her hand and continued word by word, “Tianmo Zither, I’m not interested in your past glory, but today, either you choose me as your owner and let me return to my son, or I’ll die with you.”
The gentle female voice uttered a sigh. “It’s no use to threaten the Tianmo Zither…”
But before it could finish speaking, the voice stopped abruptly.
Because it saw that when Muyan dug her fingers into the Tianmo Zither, no more bits of rotten wood fell.
Instead, a shining red light glowed.
As the red light became brighter and brighter, the blood Muyan left on the body of the zither was completely absorbed, and the remaining strings began to vibrate violently.
With the solemn and stirring music rang out, the surrounding space also began to fluctuate wildly.
The gentle female voice couldn’t keep calm any longer. “Tianmo Zither’s acoustic resonance… She triggered the acoustic resonance… Even I couldn’t do that… How hot is this woman’s blood? How strong is her mind?!”
Bang!
The dark space collapsed completely, and the red light on the Tianmo Zither also disappeared.
Muyan had used the last of her strength and was about to fall.
But at that very moment, she heard Xiaobao’s shrill cry. “Mommy —!”
Her mind suddenly sharpened and she barely held herself up while looking up. “Xiaobao,” she said very weakly.
“Mommy!” Xiaobao couldn’t stand it any longer as he rushed into Muyan’s arms and cried out. He held his mother so tightly and looked like he’d never let her go.
Tears fell like rain from his typically cold face, with his little body quivering ceaselessly in Muyan’s arms.
Muyan felt her heart breaking to see Xiaobao crying so sadly. She almost forgot all about her fatigue and pain.
She also held her son tightly and comforted him softly, “Xiaobao, good baby. Don’t cry, mommy’s all right. I won’t ever leave Xiaobao and I’ll be with Xiaobao forever.”
Xiaobao lifted his little face full of tears, and his blue eyes were like the washed sky, clear and beautiful. He looked at her without blinking, as if he was afraid she would suddenly disappear again. “Mommy, does it hurt very much?”
Muyan shook her head with a smile. “No, not at all. I’ve got a treasure!”
As she spoke, she happily showed Xiaobao the Tianmo Zither.
When she was in the inheritance space earlier, she witnessed the red light shining on the Tianmo Zither, making it a glowing, crimson treasure.
Its overbearing made Muyan shout with an even more intense pain.
The zither was so attractive, and she desired to have it so eagerly.
That was the real Tianmo Zither—a treasure of heaven and earth that could dominate the three worlds, coveted by everyone.
Muyan couldn’t wait to show it to her son so he could play with it to his heart’s content.
However, when she showed him the zither, she was dumbfounded.
