C22 Siyue Killed a Million Cavalry with a Single Song!

At that time, a dynasty from Leaf State was at war with a dynasty from Moon State.

The reason was unclear, but Leaf State had always been the stronger of the two. When the two Great Dynasties clashed, it was inevitably the common folk who bore the brunt of their strife.

Sandwiched between the two Great Dynasties was a small nation known as Cloud Country, situated right on the border of the two states.

As the Great Dynasties waged war, Cloud Country found itself caught in the crossfire.

In an extraordinary twist of fate, Jun Mo had fallen for a woman who was none other than the princess of Cloud Country.

Ding Yi couldn't help but marvel at the string of coincidences. How had Jun Mo stumbled upon such a situation?

The conflict between the two Great Dynasties escalated, with their forces converging on Cloud Country's territory. The epicenter of their confrontation was the capital of Cloud Country.

The two dynasties had an unspoken agreement to first eliminate the bothersome Cloud Country. At that critical juncture, Jun Mo was elsewhere, not in Cloud Country. Had he been present with his Celestial Spirit Stage prowess, the dynasties might have thought twice.

With Jun Mo absent, the most formidable figure in Cloud Country was their elder ancestor, who had only recently attained the Profound Spirit Stage and was on the brink of death. The two Great Dynasties paid him no heed.

Upon receiving the dire news, Jun Mo made haste toward Cloud Country.

But he arrived too late. How could Cloud Country fend off the iron cavalry of the two Great Dynasties, especially when they had deployed a million-strong army for the battle?

In less than half a day, Cloud Country was obliterated. The princess, the woman Jun Mo cherished, chose to end her life in the royal palace rather than flee. She stood with her people to the very end and left a message for Jun Mo.

She lamented her lack of strength and cursed her insufficient power.

By the time Jun Mo arrived, the city had fallen, and his beloved was no more.

Overcome with grief, he wept as he held her. Despite being an elder of the Celestial Spirit Stage, he had failed to protect the one he loved. The depth of his sorrow that day was immeasurable.

After laying his beloved to rest, Jun Mo rose to his feet, his eyes icy as he stared down the approaching forces of the two Great Dynasties.

At that time, someone recognized Jun Mo and offered to make amends, knowing the consequences of offending an elder of the Celestial Spirit Stage. They dreaded the thought of siding with the opposition, which was the last thing they wanted to happen.

However, Jun Mo did not accept their apology at that moment. He sat down, took out his zither, closed his eyes, and gently began to play a tune. Those who were previously unaware of the unfolding events slowly sensed that something was amiss.

On that day, perched atop the ruins of Cloud Country, Jun Mo played a melody that annihilated two million cavalry of the Great Dynasties.

Ding Yi listened with a calm expression, but those familiar with him understood that this was a sign of his anger.

"What happened in the end?" Ding Yi inquired.

The song had decimated a million-strong cavalry, sending shockwaves across the Divine Oracle Continent. Everyone now knew of Jun Mo. The two Great Dynasties, enraged, issued a decree to have him killed. His zither composition also became known: the Siyue melody!

Jun Mo was unyielding in his stance, ready to confront the two Great Dynasties, despite their brazenness bolstered by the presence of Spirit Sovereigns.

He was relentlessly pursued, and although various factions extended offers of alliance, he rejected each one. His identity as the disciple of a notable figure was also revealed.

Taishu Anxue was particularly intrigued; she was eager to discover the identity of the master capable of mentoring someone as formidable as Jun Mo.

When Jun Mo's twelve senior brothers stepped forward, the two Great Dynasties quickly backpedaled and apologized, especially since one of the brothers was a Spirit Sovereign. A lone Spirit Sovereign was not to be trifled with.

Despite the bullying Jun Mo had endured, his brothers were not about to let it slide. The two Great Dynasties, feeling the pressure, formed an alliance. Jun Mo and his brothers were left with no immediate recourse. Reluctantly, they ceased their pursuit, but not without a parting warning: if they encountered anyone from the two Great Dynasties, they would take a life.

"So, are the two Great Dynasties still faring well now?" Ding Yi asked, his gaze turning icy.

Taishu Anxue nodded, "Their power is vast, and they've allied with many strong figures. They had no other option. However, the two Great Dynasties have been quite subdued in recent years. Over the past fifty years, they've suffered many losses at the hands of Jun Mo's group, including the death of a prized prince."

"Has there been no activity from the Righteous Dao from start to finish?"

"Well, that's not entirely true. Some individuals from the Righteous Dao couldn't stomach the actions of the two Great Dynasties and have sided with Jun Mo."

"Are those two Great Dynasties the Flowing Moon Dynasty and the Great Ann Dynasty?"

"How did you know?" Taishu Anxue exclaimed in surprise. "You must have heard the rumors about Devil Sound Master Jun Mo, haven't you?"

Ding Yi simply smiled, offering no reply.

By this time, Ding Yi had already marked these two Great Dynasties for retribution. To harm his disciple was to provoke his wrath. In his past life, everyone respected him; it was unthinkable that they would target his disciple after his passing.

And then there were those Orthodox Dao Disciples. There were certainly more than three who had reached the Spirit Sovereign Stage, yet they remained silent.

It was one thing for internal disputes to occur within their ranks, but when outsiders bullied one of their own and they chose to stand by, Ding Yi found it intolerable.

After speaking, Taishu Anxue produced a zither. "Senior Brother, are you familiar with the zither?"

"A bit, a bit," Ding Yi modestly replied.

Taishu Anxue began to play.

The ranks of a Devil Sound Master are quite distinct, ranging from Level One to Level Nine, and Ding Yi had been involved in establishing these levels.

As Taishu Anxue played, Ding Yi could tell she was a Level Two Devil Sound Master.

To the untrained ear, her music might sound impressive, but to Ding Yi, there was still a hint of awkwardness.

Even Ding Yi, though a mortal, had to invest considerable time when he first learned the Devil Sound, despite his exceptional talents.

Speaking of talent, his was among the rarest on the Divine Oracle Continent. Still, it had taken him significant effort.

After she finished playing, Taishu Anxue turned to Ding Yi. "How was my playing?"

Ding Yi highlighted a few areas for improvement, which brightened Taishu Anxue's eyes. It was clear to her that Ding Yi's mastery surpassed her own.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother!"

Ding Yi remained silent, lost in thought about Jun Mo's situation. The young man had always preferred solitude. Ding Yi couldn't help but wonder how he would cope after that incident. Thankfully, with his Senior Brothers around, there likely wouldn't be any significant issues.

As they traveled, Ding Yi sensed the presence of many powerful Desolate Beasts. However, with the Myriad Treasure Fault's caravan being protected by seasoned experts, they encountered no trouble.

The journey with the caravan was proving worthwhile. Not only had they received news about a fellow disciple, but they were also assured a safe arrival at Heaven Protecting City.

Had he set out alone, Ding Yi would have inevitably faced fierce battles along the way. Riding in the safety of the caravan was undoubtedly the right decision.

Feeling the caravan come to a halt, Ding Yi inquired, "Have we arrived?"

Taishu Anxue shook her head, "No, we've only just left the Heavenly Courtyard."
