“You…haven’t done your best?” Bai Cailing asked as she looked at Xu Que in disbelief.
The composition he had played just now was much better than the one he had played for the Dong Family, which had also exceeded the expectations of all the people listening.
For most people who had heard this music today, this was their first time to enjoy such a restless and passionate song, except for Xu Feifei and Jiang Hongyan who were used to enjoying this kind of rock music.
He shocked countless people and awakened numerous remnant souls with only one song. But now he had said he hadn’t done his best. How could Bai Cailing stay calm?
If he didn’t do his best in this song, how amazing must his musical skills be?
Bai Cailing was confused. A faint light of hope appeared in her gloomy eyes again.
“Of course! Members of the Exploding Heavens Faction never need to do their best to accomplish a mission! Humph! These old farts have been dead for so many years. I didn’t expect they would be so stubborn. I just don’t believe I didn’t awaken them today!” Xu Que snorted as he sat back to the drum set and rolled up his sleeves.
Bai Cailing opened her mouth but said nothing! She didn’t know what to say. Xu Que gave her hope again. She knew it was not necessary to say something. Anyway, it would be good news if Xu Que could succeed. If he failed again, she would accept her fate. Therefore, what she could do now was only wait and hope Xu Que could create a miracle!
Zeng!
A sonorous sound of the Guqin could be heard at this time. Xu Que used one strand of his soul to play a Guqin. This sound pulled a lot of people out from the rock music he had played just now. They came to themselves and looked at each other in surprise.
“What’s going on?”
“I didn’t expect he would start to play a second composition!”
“Does it mean the last composition he played didn’t awaken all remnant souls?”
“My God! See! Several big gravestones had no reaction at all. It seems he failed last time!”
Gasp! “His composition was so powerful just now. I don’t believe he could fail!”
A lot of apprentices of the Leaving Leaves Sect were shocked. Elder Yu was also startled. The composition Xu Que played just now had far exceeded her expectations. She didn’t expect that he failed to awaken those souls.
So, what stunning composition will he play this time?
Instantly, all people fixed their eyes on Xu Que again. He sat in front of the drum set and closed his eyes slightly. He only played a Guqin with his soul and didn’t touch the rest of the musical instruments.
Zeng! Zeng! Zeng!
After a rapid melody, the pace of the composition was slowed down abruptly. Then, a simple and casual melody could be heard.
“These…are….” Elder Yu’s expression changed immediately.
Bai Cailing was also surprised, “Do, Re, Mi, S, and La?”
Apprentices of the Leaving Leaves Sect were stunned, “My God!”
“Do, Re, Mi, So, and La? Aren’t they the ancient musical scales?”
“How could he make a composition with it?”
…..
Suddenly, Xu Que started to sing loudly. His passionate voice was very penetrating and explosive.
“The vast sea laughs, waves roar on shores!
“We swim with the stream and only remember today!
“The Heavens laugh at the troubled world!
“Only God knows who is the winner!”
His magnificent, graceful, and slightly weatherbeaten voice exploded suddenly.
All the people in the area were shocked and felt blood was boiling in their veins.
How could such a miraculous composition exist in this world?
Do, Re, Mi, So, and La…. How could these most common musical notes be used to make compositions?
My God! What kind of weirdo is this guy? His musical skills are really amazing!
Everyone became absent-minded because of the full and delightful melody as well as his unique voice and singing style. Dimly, they thought of images of the sea and a vast world. Lofty ambitions generated in their hearts. They remembered the fighting, killing, adventure, and treasure-hunting of the past, which they were imagining vividly.
Even Bai Cailing, who had reached the Human Celestial Realm, was shocked by this song. Although she was quite powerful, she was still moved by this composition. She remembered everything that had happened in the World of Near Celestial from her cultivation to the time she spent with her fellow apprentices.
The Vast Sea Laugh resonated with countless people in this area. If the rock music he had played just now shocked their hearts, The Vast Sea Laugh stunned their souls.
The main idea of this song was the complicated human world. However, both the World of Cultivators and the Taijin Continent were complicated human worlds. Wherever there were people, there was a complicated human world!
This was also one reason that everyone was moved by the music. This song could be deemed as Xu Que’s trump card. He didn’t believe he couldn’t awaken those remnant souls. However, the result startled him again. Those motionless gravestones were still standing in the corner lifelessly, which created a distinct contrast with the countless trembling gravestones around them.
Bai Cailing also saw that. A strand of disappointment appeared on her face.Then she started to smile lightly. She had accepted this result for she and Xu Que had done their best. If they couldn’t change the result, it meant this was her fate. However, Xu Que didn’t believe in fate. He just wanted to do whatever he wanted to do. What he wanted should not be refused by fate. What he didn’t want should not be imposed by fate.
Among so many Taos, he only followed the one which would let him do anything at will.
“Humph!” Xu Que snorted and stopped his performance immediately. The next moment, he changed the musical style by playing another composition.
“You are my beloved, my other half, my love for you is never enough!
“You are my most beautiful cloud, please stay when I shout!
“Big brother is Gangnam Style!
“Grab it, grab it, little missy, grab a bunch of melon seeds!
“Show them off, little chap, show them your black fur, black fur pants!”
From Little Apple, The Hottest Ethnic Trend to Gangnam Style, he sang a lot of songs of different styles. At last, he even started to fabricate lyrics. He tried all musical styles! All the onlookers were totally stunned by him.
None of them expected that Xu Que was so good at music. He knew so many musical styles, which shocked them completely. Even Xu Feifei who used to enjoy the original versions of these songs didn’t understand why these songs could be so extraordinary. However, those big gravestones were still motionless.
“My God! Why couldn’t so many compositions awaken those gravestones?”
“Could it be that the remnant souls in those tombs have already disappeared?”
Many members of the Leaving Leaves Sect couldn’t help but guess.
Only Bai Cailing knew that the restrictive spell would have been opened if the remnant souls had disappeared. But now one-third of the restrictive spell was still closed.
“Enough! Lord Tang, it is not necessary to continue your performance!” Bai Cailing stopped Xu Que from playing other compositions at last. The beautiful, young eyes on her old face were full of disappointment.
“It is not necessary to continue. This is my fate and I have to accept it!” Bai Cailing said lightly as she had accepted this result.
Xu Que’s face darkened directly and he said seriously, “I don’t care whether you have accepted your fate or not. I just refuse to believe I can’t awaken these old farts!”
After saying that, he stood up and stepped forward. He had to accomplish this task for acting tough, for his decency, or for those boxed in the restrictive spell.
“What are you going to do? Don’t ruin those gravestones! It’s useless!” Bai Cailing shouted in surprise as she thought Xu Que was annoyed and was about to ruin those gravestones.
“I won’t do that! I will convince them with my sincerity today!” Xu Que replied loudly as he walked toward those gravestones.
Sincerity?
Convince?
Bai Cailing was shocked together with the rest of the onlookers in this area.
Could these remnant souls be convinced?
Patter!
Xu Que had arrived in front of those gravestones at this time. In front of so many puzzled eyes, he crouched down slowly and said lightly to one of the gravestones as if he was saying in a whisper, “Screw you!”
