Dragon Martial Sword Supreme

Everyone's eyes soon gathered on Princess Ye Siyu of Dajin Country.

Due to the veil she wore, her face was obscured from view, but just from the spirit and beauty of her eyes, one could tell she was undoubtedly a stunning beauty.

Zhao Letian also glanced over, but quickly averted his gaze and closed his eyes to meditate.

Although a beautiful woman was pleasant to look at and could be delightful, he was not in the mood to admire beauty at the moment.

"Clang!"

Just then, Princess Ye Siyu, without uttering a word, stretched out her delicate, fair hand and gently plucked the strings of her instrument, producing a sound as enchanting as the music of the heavens.

"What a magnificent zither!"

Someone couldn't help but exclaim.

As soon as the zither music began, it stirred the emotions, indicating that the ancient zither in Ye Siyu's hands was certainly no ordinary instrument and must have an extraordinary origin.

Following that, the soft sounds of the zither flowed like a gentle stream, causing everyone's emotions to undulate involuntarily with the melody.

"What a beautiful piece!"

Another person exclaimed in admiration.

The zither was excellent, and the music played was even more extraordinary, containing profound secrets of the musical score.

At the same time, a group of gracefully moving beauties began to dance in the hall, captivating the audience and making them involuntarily immerse themselves in the beauty of the moment.

Seeing this, Prince Chenxiao, as the host, couldn't help showing a look of satisfaction.

From the looks of it, talents from various countries were likely dazzled by his sister Ye Siyu's zither music, which was exactly the effect he desired.

"Wu!"

However, at that moment, the delightful sound of Ye Siyu's zither suddenly deepened, turning mournful and plaintive, resonating with a surge of sadness.

The atmosphere at the scene immediately became oppressive.

Upon seeing this, Prince Chenxiao frowned. Playing such a sorrowful piece at the banquet was indeed a dampener on the festive mood.

Fortunately, instead of displeasure, the change in the music only deepened the engrossment of the audience.

Thus, Prince Chenxiao stopped minding.

At the same time, as the mournful music poured forth, Zhao Letian felt a sudden jolt in his heart, opened his eyes, and with a slight furrow of his brows, he deeply gazed at Ye Siyu.

This sorrowful sound seemed to speak of a longing, involuntarily making him think of his mother.

Time silently passed.

Soon, the piece ended, but the audience was still not back to reality.

"Wonderful music, wonderful song, and a splendid lady; the Princess's music speaks volumes of the romantic affections of this world, making one wish to remain intoxicated in the land of tenderness and never awaken. Truly indescribable,"

said Zhou Bin from Thunder Swamp Country, a man of strong determination, who quickly regained his composure and smiled at Ye Siyu, unable to resist praising her.

"You flatter me, sir."

Ye Siyu slightly bowed, speaking calmly, her voice even more melodic than the music.

"Brother Zhou is right, Princess Siyu's mastery of the musical score is indeed extraordinary, making one involuntarily forget the conflicts of the world and wish only to find a perfect companion to stay by one's side forever."

Xiao Yan from Skyfire Country also followed up with admiration, his eyes showing undisguised adoration as he looked towards Ye Siyu.

However, Ye Siyu responded very indifferently, merely nodding slightly towards him.

"The Princess's zither music, akin to the melodies of the immortals, to have the honor of listening today is our privilege."

"The melody is exquisite, and the person even more so. Princess Siyu must surely be a beauty that could bring down kingdoms. It's just unfortunate that we have no chance to witness her true appearance."

Others at the scene also expressed their admiration one after another, many eyes looking towards Ye Siyu carried hints of adoration and eagerness, all eager to see the stunning face beneath her veil.

Only the people from Gray Wolf Kingdom remained comparatively composed. Although they too were astonished by Ye Siyu's zither music, they merely showed admiration in their eyes, without any traces of affection or open praise.

After all, these were candidates for the role of Prince Consort of Gray Wolf Kingdom. With the Princess of Gray Wolf Kingdom yet to be won, they would not dare show admiration towards the Princess of Dajin Country, as doing so would mean creating opportunities for their rivals.

"Ladies and gentlemen, pardon my intrusion. My younger sister generally prefers not to meet guests. Today, only after much persuasion could I convince her, and had it not been so, you would not have been fortunate enough to listen to her music. As for seeing my sister's true face, I'm afraid it won't be possible today."

Ye Chenxiao shook his head with a smile, his face expressing helplessness.

"Respected big brother, I have other matters to attend to and must take my leave now."

Ye Siyu suddenly spoke up, intending to get up and leave.

"Wait, younger sister, don't hurry. The talents from Thunder Swamp Country and Skyfire Country have expressed their opinions. Only the talents from Gray Wolf Kingdom haven't made any statement yet. Don't you want to hear what they think?"

Ye Chenxiao spoke with a smile as he tried to stop her.

He knew that his younger sister, obsessed with the art of zither music, always aspired to a higher realm and greatly cared about others' impressions after listening, surely wanting to know what the people from Gray Wolf Kingdom thought.

"Alright then."

Ye Siyu hesitated for a moment before sitting down again.

She was unsatisfied with the opinions from Thunder Swamp Country and Skyfire Country; their views vastly differed from her own expectations. Thus, she also wanted to hear if these talents from the steppes could offer a different perspective.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I understand you are all candidates for Prince Consort of Gray Wolf Kingdom and ought to avoid getting too close to other ladies. But today, do not hold back too much; feel free to frankly share your thoughts after hearing my sister's zither music."

Ye Chenxiao said as he looked towards the people from Gray Wolf Kingdom with a smile.

"Our opinion doesn't differ from theirs. Princess Siyu's mastery of the zither commands respect, and the sound of the zither seems to tell of longing for a loved one, stirring emotions and involuntarily bringing to mind youthful romance."

Meng Yi said.

"Indeed, our opinion is the same as Brother Meng's. It's a great fortune to have listened to the Princess's music today."

The others from Gray Wolf Kingdom also echoed in agreement.

Although they initially did not want to reveal their opinions, since Ye Chenxiao had asked them directly, they felt no need to hide anything.

Upon hearing the comments from the people of Gray Wolf Kingdom, Ye Chenxiao's face revealed a smug look.

However, disappointment flickered in the beautiful eyes of Princess Ye Siyu.

In her view, the people from Gray Wolf Kingdom were no different from those of Skyfire Country and Thunder Swamp Country, and they all greatly disappointed her.

"Brother Zilong, everyone has spoken, but you haven't yet. May I know your thoughts?"

Ye Chenxiao suddenly raised his brows, his gaze firmly fixed on Zhao Letian.

"Hehe, a mere rustic, what could he know of music? Second Prince, I think you shouldn't waste your time."

Xiao Yan from Skyfire Country glanced at Zhao Letian and scoffed coldly with disdain.
