Chapter 11: Tang Yuehua, Mistress of Moon Pavilion; Sign-in Rewards Mastery of All Musical Instruments
Chapter 11: Tang Yuehua, Lord of the Moon Pavilion, Signs In and Obtains the Mastery of Musical Instruments Skill!
“Kid, leave immediately. The Lord of the Moon Pavilion isn’t someone you can see. Get lost.”
The two men spoke angrily.
The Court Etiquette Academy of the Tiandou Empire was filled with noble offspring.
Here, the status of the Martial Soul Hall carried no weight.
Therefore, Xu Yan could not reveal his true identity.
Bang! Bang!
With a single strike of his staff, Xu Yan sent the two men flying.
He then charged straight inside.
“Auntie, I’m here,” Xu Yan said with a bright smile.
At that moment, many soul masters protecting the Moon Pavilion rushed out.
“Where did this wild kid come from, daring to trespass the Court Etiquette Academy?”
Xu Yan stomped his golden staff heavily on the ground.
“I’m here to see my aunt,” he said. “Tang Yuehua, Lord of the Moon Pavilion, is my aunt.”
Within this Court Etiquette Academy, many nobles not only knew Tang Yuehua but also the adorable Princess Xue Ke.
Knowing Princess Xue Ke meant access to Xue Qinghe.
Xue Qinghe was none other than the other goddess of the Douluo world, Qian Renxue.
Though he couldn’t expose Xue Qinghe’s true identity outright, he could at least get to know Qian Renxue well.
From the memories of his previous life in the Martial Soul Hall, he had never encountered Qian Renxue.
The original owner was also curious about what Qian Renxue looked like.
If it weren’t for him now, no one would know the whereabouts of the Martial Soul Hall’s young master, Qian Renxue.
“Seize him!”
Everyone charged forward.
Many nobles, who had been quietly playing harps by a beautifully serene lake nearby, watched curiously.
As the soul masters approached, Xu Yan immediately activated his Reincarnation Eye.
“Shenluo Tianzheng!”
A powerful repelling force sent everyone flying backward.
Those left standing were struck heavily to the ground as Xu Yan’s golden staff suddenly enlarged and slammed down with tremendous force.
A massive shockwave of destructive power radiated outward, sending everyone flying.
The commotion was loud, causing the students nearby to be utterly stunned.
Some soul masters, noticing Xu Yan’s soul power level was not high but his combat prowess so fierce, were astonished.
A woman clad in a silver palace gown slowly stepped forward.
At first glance, she appeared to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, yet her eyes seemed to see through all worldly matters, far beyond what a woman of that age could possess. In terms of aura, only Bibi Dong, the pope of the Martial Soul Hall, could compare.
However, unlike Bibi Dong’s suffocating pressure, she exuded nobility without losing grace.
Like Bibi Dong, she was a peerless beauty, rich with mature charm.
Naturally, she was Tang Yuehua, Lord of the Moon Pavilion of the Tiandou Empire’s Court Etiquette Academy.
“What’s going on?” she asked gently, her demeanor extremely noble.
When she saw the young boy not far off, she was immediately surprised.
“Auntie! Auntie!” Xu Yan retracted his golden staff and waved repeatedly from afar.
Tang Yuehua was momentarily stunned, then approached. When she looked closely at Xu Yan, she was shocked.
“Big brother?”
Tang Yuehua blinked repeatedly and involuntarily called out.
“??” Xu Yan was confused by the sudden “big brother” address.
I call you auntie, and you call me big brother? What kind of greeting is this?
Everyone present was shocked.
The two women accompanying Tang Yuehua were also surprised.
Tang Yuehua quickly composed herself, thinking this was not her big brother, just a resemblance.
Xu Yan thought about it: Tang Yuehua had two older brothers—Tang Hao, father of Tang San, and Tang Xiao.
Her calling might mean she thought he resembled her big brother Tang Xiao.
Perhaps he looked like Tang Xiao when he was a child.
Xu Yan was only eighteen years old, so he appeared youthful, though his eyes held a fierce determination.
Beyond this, Xu Yan could think of no other explanation.
If that was the case, it was good news—he could get closer to his beautiful aunt.
Just as he pondered how to address Tang Yuehua, it was impossible to straightforwardly say in front of her that he was attracted to her.
“Come with me,” Tang Yuehua said, then turned around.
Xu Yan said to the other soul masters, “See? He’s one of us.”
After saying this, Xu Yan followed Tang Yuehua into the main hall in front of many onlookers.
They arrived at a place of exquisite beauty—the environment so clean, it seemed like a dream.
Tang Yuehua stood nearby, gazing into the distance. “Seeing you reminds me of the times when I was young, with my big brother and second brother.”
Xu Yan thought, as expected, no surprises there.
But that made it even better.
[Beep! Detection indicates sign-in is available. Would the host like to sign in?]
“Sign in!” Xu Yan silently mouthed.
[Beep! Sign-in successful in the Moon Pavilion Lord’s Hall. Skill acquired: Mastery of Musical Instruments.]
Xu Yan felt a surge of energy as numerous musical techniques flashed through his mind—harp, piano, guitar, suona.
He was astonished to receive these upon arrival.
This system truly was a timely blessing.
With his piano skills combined with his heavenly voice, he’d be unbeatable at wooing.
This was a skill that gave him priority in choosing partners.
As the saying goes, if you have a chance with a girl and don’t pursue it, it’s a grave mistake.
He had now fully integrated all this musical theory knowledge, becoming an all-around talent.
The joy of this cheat-like life was beyond anyone’s imagination.
Seeing Xu Yan standing obediently, a stark contrast to his earlier rude intrusion, Tang Yuehua turned with a gentle gaze.
“You really look so much alike,” she said softly. “What’s your name?”
She knew Xu Yan couldn’t be Tang Xiao and quickly asked.
“Auntie, my name is Xu Yan,” he answered.
“Xu Yan, why do you call me auntie? Could you be Tang Xiao’s son?” Tang Yuehua asked.
But thinking it over, Tang Xiao’s beloved was Second Sister-in-law A Yin, and they had not married or had children, so it was impossible.
“No, then I’ll just call you sister,” Xu Yan said.
Tang Yuehua couldn’t help but smile softly and said tenderly, “Silly child, you really know how to talk. My youth is long gone; call me whatever you like.”
“Alright,” Xu Yan smiled.
“Auntie, in my heart, you will always be young, beautiful, forever eighteen, and forever youthful.”
Tang Yuehua felt her heart blossom with joy. If others praised her like this, she wouldn’t feel the same.
Perhaps it was because of the warmth she felt from Xu Yan.
“Xu Yan, why did you intrude so rudely?” Tang Yuehua asked.
“Auntie, I want to cleanse my soul, and also to see you,” Xu Yan said. “I heard that studying music theory at the Moon Pavilion can purify the soul, and help control emotions and spiritual power, so I came.”
“I see. You can learn if you wish. But the noble offspring here are very proud. You must be careful,” Tang Yuehua said softly.
“Okay, thank you, auntie,” Xu Yan immediately bowed.
“Hmm, follow me. I will arrange a place for you to stay. Tomorrow, I will have you study alongside these noble children,” Tang Yuehua said, leading Xu Yan toward a pavilion.
