Meng Huang quivered and, unable to suppress her body’s instinct, withdrew her hand.
Chen Mobai did not grip it tightly either, sensing that his action had been somewhat impulsive.
Having just reached an agreement with Meng Huang, he suddenly felt as if he owned this big star. Under the beautiful sunset, he was somewhat carried away.
“When are you planning on initiating the Foundation Establishment?”
Chen Mobai was the first to speak, breaking the silence.
“After the finals, I have already booked a room in building nine with the highest-ranking Spiritual Energy. I will go there first, and you should get a room as cover. Come to my room at night, I’ll let you in.”
...Upon hearing Meng Huang’s words, Chen Mobai felt a subtle thrill inside him.
Perhaps all men experience these feelings when they engage in clandestine activities.
However, both of them were high-profile figures within the Daoist Academy, and if people saw them checking into a room together, it would undoubtedly cause a great stir. Hence, Meng Huang’s consideration is extremely thoughtful.
“Alright, we’ll do as you said. Also, what should I prepare if I were to implement the Equaling Heaven Art?”Having confirmed the time of Meng Huang’s Foundation Establishment, Chen Mobai proceeded to ask another key question.
“There’s no need to prepare anything, I’ve already asked someone to draw the Talisman for the Equaling Heaven Art, and we can simply inject spiritual power to activate it.”
Meng Huang’s response sparked a deep interest in Chen Mobai. As a Rank-2 Talisman Master of the Immortal School, he was quite curious about this unheard-of method of transforming a spell into a Talisman.
“May I look at this Talisman?”
“The Talisman-Maker is still working on it; they promised to send it to me two days before my Foundation Establishment. That’s why I scheduled it at that time.”
After listening to Meng Huang’s words, Chen Mobai was regretful. But after all, he wouldn’t have to wait much longer. When the time comes, he can carefully examine it and take some photos.
“By the way, where is your ‘Device Nurturing Sphere?’ It was the original reason for my visit today.”
Chen Mobai remembered the initial motive for his visit, which was digressed by Meng Huang’s Equaling Heaven Art. He almost forgets that matter.
“It’s in my studio. Please wait here, and I’ll get it.”
Chen Mobai nodded, watching Meng Huang’s graceful silhouette enter the hall. She then opened a practice room in a corner, taking a tray out with her.
There were five ‘Device Nurturing Spheres’ on the tray.
“I’ll sketch the shapes of the Magic Artifacts within the spheres for you, and you can see which one suit you.”
Chen Mobai expertly used his Void Spirit Eye to see through the five Magic Artifacts. Taking the sketchbook and pencil from Meng Huang, he used his exquisite drawing skills to vividly illustrate each Magic Artifact on the paper.
There were guqin, pipa, jade flute, guzheng, and waist drum.
“That’s why you’re number one in Talismans.”
Meng Huang couldn’t help praising him when she saw the lifelike illustrations Chen Mobai had drawn.
“This pipa is good. I have seen it in the Map of Treasures before. It’s a lower-grade Rank-2 instrument, and the previous owner was also cultivating the Mystic Sound Method.”
Meng Huang had virtually studied all the music-related Magic Artifacts in the Map of Treasures in anticipation of her meeting with Chen Mobai. So, as soon as she saw the real nature of the spheres, she immediately picked her target.
“Alright then, I will wait for you in the Treasure Trove tomorrow.”
Opening the ‘Device Nurturing Sphere’ requires the use of a Device Piece to trigger the fire of the Treasure Trove.
With all matters settled, an awkward silence fell between them once again.
Chen Mobai felt that his relationship with Meng Huang was progressing a bit too fast. He needed to go back and cool down, so he proposed to leave first.
“Hmm.”
Meng Huang responded softly, her head lowered.
Had Chen Mobai not been fully focusing on her, he might not have heard her at all.
After flying off the balcony to his own wooden house, Chen Mobai suddenly slapped his head.
Such a great opportunity, why didn’t he think of asking Meng Huang to sing a solo for him!
This has been a dream of his since the first time he learned about Meng Huang.
It should be considered fulfilled now.
Although he thought so, Chen Mobai still suppressed the urge to fly back. They would have plenty of opportunities to listen to Meng sing in the future, given the progress in their relationship.
At night.
Inside the hilltop villa.
Meng Huang was speaking on the phone with someone: “Yes, the time has been set, let’s hope the Equaling Heaven Art really works.”
[Don’t worry. You know our reputation in this area. We have also made a vow with you to ensure that this Equaling Heaven Art will not cause after-effects to either party.]
Meng Huang: “If it weren’t so, I wouldn’t have agreed.”
[For us, you are just a piece on the board we occasionally move. Don’t take yourself too seriously.]
After saying this, the person on the other end hung up the phone.
Meng Huang set down her phone expressionlessly.
Although in the eyes of outsiders, she is a musical genius who could potentially play the Shocking God Sonata, in the eyes of top echelons, she is just another slightly outstanding cultivator.
Without successful Foundation Establishment, she would soon join the rank of countless cultivators from the Immortal history who had practiced the Mystic Sound Method, and fade into history as their voices aged.
Since she failed to establish her Foundation and learned about the Equaling Heaven Art during her national tour, she has been looking for someone to borrow luck from.
As a big star, she has quite a few connections.
