The Most Powerful Overlord
Chapter 493: The Daughter of That Man’s Servant
Xiao Zhen was unable to control his sobbing.
"No... It’s definitely not his music that’s moving me, definitely not!"
Although he wouldn’t admit it, the streaming tears betrayed him.
Tang Chan’er also had wet eyes.
"What... kind of masterpiece is this?"
Bei Xiyue wiped her tears and said in shock.
Not just them, but everyone in the restaurant listened intently, as if entranced.
They seemed to no longer belong to this world, but to the world of Ye Qingtian’s music.
Boom!
Finally, the notes slowly came to a close.
The sound gradually faded, yet everyone in the restaurant was still savoring the recent beauty.
They closed their eyes, as if hoping they’d never awaken.
Seeing the scene silent, Ye Qingtian gave a wry smile, "I’m really sorry, it’s my first time playing the cello, I didn’t play well, I hope everyone can critique me heavily."
Ye Qingtian’s words suddenly woke the audience from their trance.
Then, thunderous applause filled the restaurant.
The audience went wild!
"Sir, your cello playing is the most beautiful music I’ve ever heard!"
"Yes, it’s like it awakened the soul!"
"So invigorating, so satisfying, it felt like attaining enlightenment and becoming immortal." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
...
The patrons all praised, applauding like thunder.
Some crazed customers even ran up to take pictures with Ye Qingtian.
A moment later, Ye Qingtian walked back to his table.
Tang Chan’er and Bei Xiyue stood up and involuntarily began to clap.
In the depths of their eyes, there was a genuine admiration and envy.
Xiao Zhen shook off his shock, wiped his tears, and snorted coldly, "Hmph, just a blind cat that ran into a dead mouse!"
"The more musically ignorant they are, the more they’ll have dumb luck!"
At this moment, he was filled with resentment towards Ye Qingtian.
Rather than making a fool of himself, Ye Qingtian’s performance had instead stolen the spotlight; how could Xiao Zhen not be furious!
At this moment, Master Bei walked up briskly.
"Father, you’re here?"
"Hello Uncle Bei."
Tang Chan’er and Bei Xiyue both greeted him.
Master Bei nodded.
"This gentleman, my name is Bei Lesheng, and I’m the chief elder of the Hidden Sect Spirit Music Master Union. I have something I don’t know if I should say."
Upon hearing this, Tang Chan’er and Bei Xiyue exchanged a glance, both taken aback.
Is Bei Lesheng about to take Ye Qingtian as a disciple?
"Damn it, even Master Bei favors this kid, he’s definitely going to take him as a disciple!"
Xiao Jian gritted his teeth in resentment.
"Go ahead," Ye Qingtian said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Bei Lesheng suddenly knelt before Ye Qingtian with a thud.
Witnessing this scene, Bei Xiyue was dumbfounded!
Tang Chan’er was dumbfounded!
Xiao Jian was dumbfounded!
To think the elder of the Hidden Sect Spirit Music Master Union would kneel to a kid from the Mortal World!
What kind of act is this?
"Father, you... you should get up quickly, how can he bear such grand courtesy!"
Bei Xiyue hurried forward to help.
Unexpectedly, Bei Lesheng glared at her, "Bei Xiyue, you kneel down too!"
What?
I... kneel too?
"In the presence of a Grandmaster, if not now, then when?"
Bei Lesheng said sternly.
Bei Xiyue bit her lip, filled with reluctance, but still knelt down.
"What are you doing?" Ye Qingtian frowned.
"In the presence of a Grandmaster, this is what we should do. Grandmaster, I wanted to ask, are you married now?"
Bei Lesheng cautiously inquired.
"No, why?" Ye Qingtian replied, puzzled.
"Well... my daughter Bei Xiyue is extremely talented, proficient in music, and is a rare beauty. Even though she might not be one in ten thousand of you, she’s still young and with hard work, she will surely keep up with your pace."
Bei Lesheng said.
"What exactly are you trying to say?" Ye Qingtian seemed to have an inkling.
"I... I wish for my daughter to become your wife."
The scene went silent.
Tang Chan’er’s eyes widened, so that’s why Bei Lesheng knelt before Ye Qingtian.
Xiao Zhen was also so shocked his eyes nearly popped out.
Bei Xiyue is the pride of the heavens, pursued by countless talented rich youths, yet her father had blocked them all.
Now Bei Lesheng was kneeling to beg Ye Qingtian!
This completely overturned Xiao Zhen’s world view!
"Do you think she’s worthy to be my wife?" Ye Qingtian said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Bei Lesheng slapped his own forehead, "I overthought it. How about her being your maid?"
Ye Qingtian shook his head again, "As a maid, she is also unworthy."
"What the heck, how arrogant is this guy?"
"The daughter of the illustrious Master Bei, worshipped by others as a Fairy, isn’t even qualified to be his maid? Does he assume he’s a god?"
Xiao Zhen thought disdainfully to himself.
And what Bei Lesheng decided next would absolutely astonish everyone.
"Then... can I be your servant?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Chan’er was stunned, Bei Xiyue was dumbfounded, and Xiao Zhen was dumbfounded!
In the restaurant, everyone was incredibly shocked.
Wu City’s top Spirit Musician, an elder of the Spirit Music Master Union, was asking to be Ye Qingtian’s servant!
It’s simply unbelievable!
Everyone thought they were dreaming, pinched themselves, realized it wasn’t a dream, and felt even more shocked.
"Sir, your music is a divine masterpiece, only a god could produce such divine music, please grant me the opportunity to follow you, even if just as a beast of burden, I’d be willing!"
Bei Lesheng finished speaking and bowed.
Wow!
The restaurant erupted in chatter.
Master Bei didn’t ask Ye Qingtian for advice or to be his disciple; he directly wanted to become his servant!
This... completely upended everyone’s worldview.
Everyone in the restaurant wore a look of shock.
Then their gazes all fell in unison on Ye Qingtian.
"He’s sure to agree, after all, Master Bei is renowned far and wide."
"Yes, having such a servant would be more joyous than becoming a champion for that young man, right?"
"If Master Bei could become my servant, I’d be too excited to sleep for three days and nights!"
In everyone’s eyes, this was an event of utmost prestige.
At this moment, Bei Xiyue’s delicate body trembled.
If her father became Ye Qingtian’s servant, wouldn’t she be the daughter of Ye Qingtian’s servant?
She wasn’t even worthy of being Ye Qingtian’s servant!
"I’m sorry, you’re not qualified to be my servant; your talent is too poor and your accomplishments too low."
Ye Qingtian’s words once again silenced the scene.
He... actually refused outright!
This was simply unbelievable.
"You’ve forgotten the essence of Spirit Musicians; the cello is unimportant."
"The tool doesn’t matter; the soul does."
The soft words made Bei Lesheng suddenly realize.
"Thank you for your guidance, sir. In this life and the next, I’m willing to be your servant forever!"
Earnestly saying so, he took Bei Xiyue and left the restaurant.
Witnessing this, everyone was once again shocked.
For Master Bei to be so convinced and pleased, in the Hidden Sect, Ye Qingtian was probably the first!
Tang Chan’er’s heart trembled uncontrollably; just how terrifying was Ye Qingtian’s musical talent?
And as Bei Xiyue left the restaurant, she shook her head bitterly.
From today onwards, she was the daughter of that person’s servant!
