Omnipotent Husband System

The lady with a twirling walk gained a lot of gazes from the people in the guest area. She led Hao Ren and Han Lingshi to a table where an old lady sat on a table with her eyes closed. Hao Ren could tell she was immersed in the music. It was indeed a nice display of skills that was being showcased at the moment.

After a few minutes, the music came to a stop. The lady moved closer to the the old lady and bowed down to whisper something in her ears. The old lady was surprised, and turned to look at Hao Ren who was talking to Han Lingshi.

She frowned and asked, "Does this gentleman know the price of losing the challenge?"

The lady hesitated and turned to say something to Hao Ren when the latter asked, "May I ask, what the price is, Elder?"

Hao Ren cupped his fists to the lady and slightly bowed his head. The old lady replied, "If you lose, do not practice music ever again."

The crowd was hearing this, and were surprised. Hao Ren himself was surprised and asked, "Elder, don't you think that the price you have set is too much? After all, in return I am only getting the seat closer to the pavilion with my wife."

The old lady said, "Life is not always fair, is it?"

Hao Ren chuckled and flicked his hand. A small mountain of superior spirit stones appeared behind him and he said, "I can buy this place and ask everyone to leave. However, for the sake of fairness, I did not do it. Life may not be fair to other people, but people can be."

Han Lingshi frowned and said, "Ren, you don't have to prove anything to these people. Let us leave."

Hao Ren shook his head and said, "Initially, I just wanted to admire the scenery with you. However, now, I want to broaden their horizons. They should know that the essence of music lays far beyond their grasp."

The old lady clenched her fist and said, "Are you slapping my face by these words?" Experience tales at empire

Hao Ren shook his head as he walked towards the pavilion where a young lady was sitting with a qin in her lap and said, "I am only stating facts, the slap will land after my performance. Also, I hope that you are fair in your evaluation, otherwise you might suffer even more."

The old lady glared at Hao Ren and Han Lingshi smiled helplessly. She could not help but recall the day when Hao Ren raced for her company and stood proudly among the rest of the rival companies, and defended her honor.

Hao Ren walked up to the pavilion and cupped his fist as he said, "May I have a chance to perform, fellow daoist?"

The young lady looked at the elder and nodded forcefully. The young lady came out of the pavilion with her instrument in her lap. Hao Ren took out his own qin. It was the same qin that Han Lingxue gave him, but he had changed the strings. The quality of the wood made the old lady sneer at Hao Ren.

The young man ignored her and closed his eyes. Earlier, the system had issued a task for him to win the challenge by performing a song that was dedicated to his wife, and mesmerize the people with his true emotions.

Hao Ren took a deep breath, and then his long fingers ran across the strings. The first note created a small ripple in the void, while many people could not tell the difference, the old lady opened her eyes wide.

The shock from the first note itself was so much that she could not help but stand up from her chair and look at the young man in a daze. Hao Ren did not care about it at all. His fingers moved and he plucked the strings with great calm. His face did not change, but his eyes flickered with emotions.

Han Lingshi could picturize everything, the notes resonated within her conscious, similar to her heart beats. The song started from the first day Hao Ren met her and they got married, then followed their entire journey. As the song progressed the scenery changed, she saw Hao Ren playing the Qin in the dark of the night as he gazed at the moon.

His longing for her reached such an extent where his expression turned cold, and his eyes lost spark, only a few days he would smile. Han Lingshi understood that it was the times when she called him. Her eyes brimmed with tears.

Not only her, but all the other people were shedding tears as well. They did not know but the music had pulled them all inside the scene where they saw a young man longing for his wife who was sitting in a far away nation.

He struggled and thrived in unfamiliar territories for her sake, and finally, the song picked up as the young man met his beloved. His emotions transitioned so smoothly, that the people started smiling before they could stop their tears.

The old lady was shocked. She was standing with her fingers clenched so tight that the nails had began digging in her skin. The young lady beside her was shocked, her eyes were brimming with ideas that she never could have thought of. Hao Ren's song and his imagery had opened the doors of a new world for her.

Soon, as the scenery changed, the people saw the young man dancing with his wife in his arm. They were performing a dance that they did know, however, Han Lingshi knew, it was the waltz they had done many times at home while they were alone.

The emotions of love were conveyed by the eyes of the young man in the imagery. Slowly, the song came to an end, but the people were entranced in the illusion. Hao Ren did not disturb them, after all, it could cause them to suffer from internal injuries as their spiritual energy was flowing at a high speed.

It took them a few minutes, before they woke up, and everyone looked at the old lady. They found her taking a deep breath, coming around her table, and then she walked up to the pavilion where she cupped her fist and bowed her head to Hao Ren saying, "Forgive my ignorance, Young Master. I did not realize that your skill was at this level. I am not qualified to judge you."

Hao Ren waved his hand and the spiritual wind made the old lady stand up straight. Hao Ren said, "You do not have to be like this. However, please do not judge a book by its cover. In this world there are people who perceive the essence of music way better than the others. Only by keeping an open mind can you improve on the path of music. The moment you think you have attained it all, that is when you start being left behind."

The lady nodded, and the people began to applause Hao Ren. The young man, however, did not care about them. His gaze was locked with the young lady who was still crying.

He stood up and took a step. The next moment, he appeared before Han Lingshi. His movement shocked people. Most of them thought that he was quick. However, the old lady knew, that Hao Ren's step made the space fold. He just used teleportation at micro level.

She was so scared at the moment, that she shivered terribly. Her young disciple asked, "What happened, Third Elder?"

The elder took a deep breath and said, "That person is a senior cultivator. He is at least at the Dao Integration Realm."

Her message was conveyed with spiritual sense, but it shocked the young disciple so much that she turned pale. In their entire sect, only the School Master was at this level. Thinking about how disrespectful the elder had been, it was already a bliss that they were not dead.

Hao Ren did not care about any of them. He gently wiped her tears and asked, "What happened, my love? Did I make you sad?"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Han Lingshi shook her head and hugged him. She buried her head in his chest and kept on crying. Hao Ren could feel that she was probably overwhelmed by his grief and longing for her that made him colder. He sighed and rubbed her back gently.

He consoled her without caring about what the people thought of them. After a few minutes, Han Lingshi calmed down. She had the bearing of an Empress when looking at the world, but in her eyes, Hao Ren was her everything. She was no different from any other human who craved for undiluted love.

She said, "Never leave me alone."

Hao Ren smiled and replied, "I promise."

Han Lingshi shook her head, "I will not let you go away ever."

Hao Ren smiled even brightly. He calmed her down and then the old lady arrived. She again apologized and Hao Ren shook his head. The old lady said, "Young Master, my name is Qin Yuan, and this is the prime disciple of my school, The Resonance Music School, Yao Yue."

The young lady bowed to Hao Ren, and the old lady said, "Young Master, may I ask who you are?"

Hao Ren smiled, the system has just announced a reward and a pawn came forward for his future plans. He looked at Han Lingshi with a bright smile and the lady understood his thoughts, before she said, "Elder, let us have a seat. Please join us for the meal."
