Chapter 91: Relentless Pursuit
It took Lian Yun nearly half a month to forge a set of Silver Dragon Armor. Even with improved skills in the future, he could only hope to reduce that time by a few days at most.
Although Lian Yun was generally cheerful and had become much more easygoing, he was unwilling to waste time on this matter. Moreover, neither he nor the Ghost Slaves possessed a single piece of Soul Gear.
Additionally, now that the Silver Dragon Armor had been created, other Master Blacksmiths could also forge it. Although they had never seen the awakened Azure Dragon, they could still produce a set with effects, even if those effects would be weakened by thirty to forty percent. The control over Earth Spirit Energy within several dozen meters would still be sufficient for them to comprehend and utilize.
However, Lian Yun underestimated the allure of the Silver Dragon Armor he had created.
Not long after he returned to the Azure Pavilion, several influential figures arrived with their descendants or successors. The original customers were almost instantly frightened away, and soon various factions occupied the place, leaving the first-floor hall crowded with people.
There were even many leaders from outside the Four Great Cities of Huaxia who came as well. This led to quite a few disputes with the local Huaxia factions.
Had Lian Yun inadvertently stirred up trouble for Lan Ruoxuan?
The formations of the Azure Pavilion were fully activated, unafraid of any fighting that might arise from Peak Monarchs appearing. However, if the Azure Pavilion did not handle this situation well, it would attract considerable hostility.
Yet Azure Drift smiled mysteriously and said, "No! Moreover..."
Azure Drift feigned mystery, but Lan Ruoxuan interjected, "In previous years, whenever someone from our Azure Pavilion sought to achieve fame, we would set up a performance stage in Chang'an City Square for public performances witnessed by all. We would also invite esteemed and powerful individuals to attend."
"Yixuan was already prepared; she just lacked confidence."
"And today she might play the Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix to help you out of your predicament. With many strong witnesses present in the pavilion, if Yixuan can perform it successfully, there will be no need for promotion; her reputation will spread on its own."
Azure Drift shot Lan Ruoxuan an annoyed glance before turning to Lian Yun with a smile. "You must not leave!"
"Now you are indeed in a place of renown, and all these strong individuals have come for you. This situation may provide Yixuan with some inspiration to refine her artistic conception."
Lian Yun felt somewhat speechless; this seemed like a case of compounding mistakes!
Meanwhile, beside Meng Yixuan, Le asked curiously, "Is sister planning to perform Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix?"
Inadvertently, Le had revealed her true identity.
However, Meng Yixuan seemed to have known all along and was not surprised. Instead, she appeared a bit annoyed as she said, "Originally, Yuying and I were discussing that when I hold the witness ceremony, you should dress up and perform a dance. Recently, Yuying has even finished sewing the outfit."
Although Le was a Soul Body avatar, he couldn't help but secretly break into a cold sweat at that moment. He thought to himself, 'Sister, you must succeed this time! You can't make any mistakes!'
When the time came, if it was Meng Yixuan's request, Lian Yun would have no way to refuse. Just the thought of what Xi Men Yu Ying had sewn for him made Lian Yun tremble with anxiety and unease.
Thus, Lian Yun could only pray for Meng Yixuan to succeed in one go and perform the essence of Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix.
As for the effect of that essence, Lian Yun had no thoughts about it at all.
At this moment, chaos reigned inside Azure Pavilion. Major Powers forcefully moved into some compartments, driving away weaker factions or sharing a loft with them.
This created an interesting scene where the weakest factions were gradually squeezed out of Azure Pavilion, while the overall strength of the guests inside continued to grow stronger.
However, within a short period of time, although the newcomers were all upper-class or even top-tier individuals, Azure Pavilion remained noisy.
At one point, the entire Azure Pavilion suddenly fell silent; not a sound could be heard. This was due to a special soundproof formation that had been activated. It was originally set up to prevent disturbances during performances by prominent figures but now had an unexpected effect.
On the third floor, Meng Yixuan's compartment suddenly opened. With a calm expression and indifferent tone, she said, "If my Yun Di were merely a Blacksmith, it would be understandable for you esteemed guests to come here."
"However, my brother's talent surpasses that of any of your disciples; how could he have time to forge equipment for you?"
Upon hearing this, many people's faces turned red with anger; they opened their mouths but couldn't find their voices in their frustration.
Yet Meng Yixuan paid no mind and lightly stroked her guqin before continuing calmly, "Guests are here by fate; why not let a lady play a piece for you? Once the music ends, please disperse."
Many high-ranking individuals and even Top Emperors showed disdain on their faces. A few Peerless Monarchs were visibly irritated but remained silent; even if someone wanted to speak up, they held their tongues.
However, from one compartment emerged an arrogant woman with alluring features. She waved her hand at Meng Yixuan with a look of grievance and raised a fiery red outfit.
Meng Yixuan's eyes brightened momentarily before she lowered her head and softly said, "Opportunities are rare; this scene is even more difficult. I still lack confidence in being able to play well."
"Pfft~~~"
Le spat out in anger, feeling desolate inside. It seemed they would never let him off the hook.
"Little sister took two sisters to Leader to help me change clothes,"
Xi Men Yu Ying nodded eagerly, like a chick pecking at grain, then pulled the two members of Azure Pavilion and rushed upstairs.
Meanwhile, Meng Yixuan carried Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix down, leaving Laughter sitting there with a face full of despair.
In the courtyard of Lan Ruoxuan, Lian Yun almost spat out in sync with Laughter, wishing to disappear on the spot, longing to hide in another space.
However, Lian Yun stayed.
After all, Meng Yixuan had just offended nearly all the future leaders of the major powers in the realm of Yin and Yang with her words in order to defend herself, including all the strong figures of the next generation.
How could she refuse Meng Yixuan's 'impolite' request?
Before long, Xi Men Yu Ying appeared with the two women, her face filled with joy, a glistening liquid still lingering at the corner of her pink lips. She said, "Hehe, Young Master Yun should just give in to me and my sister!"
Lian Yun shivered all over, then looked on speechlessly; silence was an acknowledgment.
