Chapter 91: Ling Kexin’s Perfect Support Character
When everyone saw that Qin Bei had already gone inside, they knew there was no hope for them.
Who knows how long this first guest of the event would stay inside?
What if Ling Kexin, just like some of the girls in the pavilions, decided to become a guest and give herself to someone else?
In that case, staying inside for a month wouldn’t be surprising at all. After all, in other pavilions, the guests usually stayed around a month.
As for what happened during that month, everyone was aware, and it was something many looked forward to.
But thinking about it, Prince Bei is already a family man, married to the Saintess.
He probably wouldn’t do something scandalous, right?
With this thought, everyone felt a lot more at ease.
“Xiaoxuan, let’s go.”
“I’m not leaving! I want to wait for my brother to come out!”
“Stop waiting; your brother is busy with important matters. It’ll take him a few days. I’ll take you back to the palace.”
“Oh~ fine.”
…….
Qin Zhen then looked over at Qin Xiu.
“Prince Xiu, why not come with us?”
Qin Xiu’s face twitched in irritation.
“Hmph! I have plenty of free time! This month, I’ll stay here! I want to see what outrageous things Qin Bei dares to do! I believe that Mu Zhaoxue, the Saintess of Wu Nation, is still waiting at home, right? My royal brother should really advise him to return home early; after all, Wu Nation is one of the three giants and shouldn’t be offended like this!”
Qin Xiu said angrily.
Qin Zhen shrugged.
“Then Prince Xiu will be disappointed; Xiao Bei already got his wife’s consent before coming. I think the Saintess of Wu Nation is quite reasonable too~”
“You!”
Qin Xiu was furious!
“Fine, if you’re not leaving, we’ll go. But you can’t sneakily eavesdrop using magic, or be careful of your blood and qi attacking your heart.”
Hahaha~
Qin Zhen laughed heartily as he left.
Only the grim-faced Qin Xiu was left behind.
……
Now, let’s talk about Qin Bei on the other side.
He followed Xiao Huan into the Spirit Pavilion.
Qin Bei could be said to have witnessed what true wealth looked like.
The scenery, furnishings, and more inside the pavilion were not only beautiful but also quite peculiar.
It was nothing short of a treasure trove.
Qin Bei felt it could rival the palace itself.
It was many times better than his own royal manor.
“I thought that after buying some rare treasures for the royal manor, it would be quite high-end. I didn’t expect your lady’s place to be even more luxurious.”
Qin Bei couldn’t help but sigh.
“That’s right; you don’t consider my lady’s status. What rare treasures is there that she cannot obtain?”
“True, the spirit race is gifted, after all.”
Qin Bei sighed again.
“Prince Bei, here we are. My lady is inside.”
Xiao Huan brought Qin Bei to the outside of a courtyard and stopped.
Qin Bei nodded.
Xiao Huan then left on her own.
Qin Bei looked up at the courtyard.
Compared to the peculiar treasures he had seen on the way,
the courtyard was much simpler.
It was filled with ordinary decor and supplies typically found in an everyday home.
This surprised Qin Bei a bit.
As he entered the courtyard, the fragrance of flowers wafted in the air.
The sound of a zither echoed alongside.
Following the melody, Qin Bei walked through the courtyard and arrived at the backyard.
There, near a small lake, was a pavilion.
A woman in a green dress was gently playing the guqin. She wore a green gauze over her face, revealing only half of her exquisite features.
Qin Bei naturally approached the pavilion.
He didn’t say a word, just sat quietly, listening to the beautiful melody.
As the song ended,
Ling Kexin finally looked at Qin Bei.
Although she had seen Qin Bei’s reflection before,
this was their first real encounter, and Ling Kexin carefully observed him.
Sure enough, he was handsome.
Even though Qin Bei was merely sitting quietly,
Ling Kexin could still sense that mysterious confidence radiating from him, leaving her slightly stunned.
“It’s better to meet in person than just hear about it. Prince, you pleasantly surprised Kexin.”
Ling Kexin said with a smile.
“Oh? Surprised? Why? Did Miss Kexin expect me to have a fierce look because of the rumors saying I’m arrogant?”
Ling Kexin: …
Is this what they call mysterious confidence?
Before she was “Miss Ling,” and now it’s “Miss Kexin”? Am I going to be called Kexin later?
“Not at all! How could a child of the Xia Emperor have a fierce look? Kexin is merely surprised that the prince is exceptionally handsome and confident.”
Ling Kexin said with a gentle smile.
“Hahaha, I think so too.”
“Well… would you mind telling me what perks come with being your guest? Please elaborate; the prince would like to choose a few.”
Qin Bei said, grinning.
Ling Kexin: …
“This… actually… How about I play a song for the prince?”
“I’ve listened to quite a lot and am quite tired. Is there anything else?”
“The prince misunderstood. The songs I play don’t require you to comprehend them again, and the effect is different in person. Why don’t you give it a try?”
“Well… okay, since we have plenty of time, we can play later.”
Ling Kexin: …
Why does Prince Bei seem less serious than Prince Xiu?
Why is his mind filled with such dirty thoughts?
“Then I shall begin.”
After saying that, Ling Kexin started playing.
The beautiful melody of the guqin filled the air, unlike anything Qin Bei had heard before.
And this time was completely different. The artistic conception in the music felt like an open-book exam, directly instilling itself in Qin Bei’s mind.
Slowly, Qin Bei became immersed in it.
The extremely cold gaze that had just broken through was finally stable.
Ling Kexin’s music surprisingly assisted him in mastering these powers.
Qin Bei finally understood what path Ling Kexin was practicing.
Assistance!
Complete assistance!
Whether in cultivation or combat, Ling Kexin could help people enhance their abilities.
As this thought dawned on him, Qin Bei was both enlightened and shocked.
And he had a bold idea.
The system’s epiphany could theoretically allow him to grasp skills and learn to use them.
And Ling Kexin’s music could help him physically master these skills.
Thus, by combining the two, he wouldn’t even need to practice or go into combat—the world would be his oyster!
Of course, the premise was to have enough Krypton Gold points and Ling Kexin’s continued support.
Not only that, but Qin Bei also felt that after exchanging for cultivation through the system mall, his strength could soar without worrying about a fragile foundation.
As long as Ling Kexin was there to help, he could stabilize without actual combat.
Not only would it be faster, but also easier.
It was simply a fishing artifact!
……
Having thought this through, Qin Bei no longer hesitated.
Even though he couldn’t guarantee Ling Kexin would be helpful in the long run, at least for now she could aid him.
“System, how many Krypton Gold points do I need to exchange for a year of cultivation?”
