Chapter 199: Princess, No! (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This woman was too ruthless.

She looked like a gentle and virtuous woman on the surface. She played the zither and knew nothing.

In the end, her methods were so sharp.

To be honest, Zhou Han was terrified.

“Her father is the Soul Control Sovereign. He specializes in extracting souls. She’s naturally not a good person.”

Zhou Han complained gloomily in his heart.

This was the first time he had been treated so humiliatingly.

When the time came, he had to find an opportunity to take revenge.

Zhou Han quickly thought of a countermeasure in his mind. The most important thing now was how to escape.

Who knew what male slaves had to do?

He did not want to sacrifice his body for no reason.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

…

After teasing Zhou Han, Xi Yao began to play the zither again.

The sound of the zither was long and drawn out. The quiet Xi Yao was still as beautiful as a painting.

However, this was not Zhou Han’s focus.

He realized that there was a phantom ‘?’ above Xi Yao’s head.

“Eh! Isn’t this the mark of the mission?”

Just as Zhou Han was puzzled, a system notification sounded.

[Detected that there is an available mission, ‘Xi Yao’s Soulmate’.]

However, it was in an untriggered state now.

Through talking to Xi Yao, there was a high chance that he could trigger the mission.

In order to successfully trigger the mission, Zhou Han directly attacked her, “What shitty music are you playing?”

“Thump…”

The music stopped abruptly. One of the strings snapped, vibrating.

It indicated the endless anger in Xi Yao’s heart.

“Do you really want to die?” Xi Yao gritted her teeth and enunciated each word clearly, her voice filled with endless coldness.

It seemed that she was really angry this time. After all, zither skills meant a lot to her.

“What’s wrong? You play badly. Are you not allowed to say anything?”

“With an attitude like yours, you don’t accept criticism or opinions. How can you improve your zither skills?”

Because he felt that this mission was his hope of escaping, he stood up and faced it head-on.

Moreover, what Zhou Han said made sense.

Although Xi Yao was good at playing, she still had some flaws.

“I played badly?”

“Then tell me, what’s the problem?”

Xi Yao was interested.

Criticism?

Who would dare criticize her?

He had an opinion?

Because of her status, all she had heard before was praise.

This was the first time Xi Yao had seen someone talk to her like this.

This was a new experience.

“Sigh! You have too many shortcomings!”

Zhou Han shook his head and said pretentiously.

“I’ll just say the next three points!”

“First, no emotions were invested. Second, the tune was too monotonous. Third, the technique was too backward.”

Don’t ask how Zhou Han knew.

It was the auxiliary system that told him.

“You make it sound like it makes sense!”

After hearing Zhou Han’s comments, Xi Yao thought for a while and seemed to understand something.

“You know about the zither too?”

“I know a little!”

“Then hurry over and show me!” Xi Yao ordered.

[New mission ‘Xi Yao’s Soulmate’ has been detected. Do you accept?]

“Accepted!”

Zhou Han chanted in his heart.

[Mission accepted successfully. Please check the description!]

Zhou Han immediately opened the mission interface and the description was slowly displayed.

[Xi Yao’s Soulmate]

[Type: Mission]

[Description: Connect with Xi Yao, including but not limited to zither skills.]

[Progress: In Progress (3 days)]

[Mission Score: None]

[Fixed Reward: Random Supreme-grade Skill Book x1.]

[Random Reward: Issued according to the score.]

After scanning it and seeing the mission reward, Zhou Han nodded in satisfaction.

A Supreme-grade skill book surpassed the Divine-grade. It was simply too awesome.

“What are you waiting for? Do I have to treat you?”

Xi Yao asked bluntly, her eyes filled with threat.

“Are you blind?! How can I get there when I’m tied up like this?”

Although he could still play the zither like this, it undoubtedly made it more difficult for him to escape.

Now that there was a chance to negotiate, Zhou Han naturally would not let it go.

“Hmph! I’ll untie you now. Don’t play tricks on me!” Xi Yao hesitated for a moment before untying Zhou Han.

She had many Supreme-grade Dharma treasures in hand, so it was easy for her to deal with Zhou Han.

Flash!

Xi Yao put away the Immortal Binding Rope. Zhou Han felt his body relax. The most important thing now was to hurry up and complete the mission.

The only way to resonate with Xi Yao now was to play the zither.

‘Can you play the zither?’

He had to!

Zhou Han did not hesitate and sat in front of the zither.

His aura changed. He had been unrestrained before, but now he was a quiet handsome man.

Deng! Deng! Deng!

The strings circled the painting beam, each word melodious.

Xi Yao’s beautiful eyes narrowed, and the gaze she used to look at Zhou Han immediately softened. Her heart skipped a beat.

She slowly closed her eyes and listened carefully to the beauty of it. Soon she was immersed.

Soon, the song ended.

“Hmm? Why is it over so quickly?” Xi Yao frowned and said unhappily.

As if he had just been provoked, the other party suddenly stopped and did not move further.

This feeling was very uncomfortable, like scratching an itch through a boot.

“I have no choice. It’s only three minutes long!” Zhou Han said speechlessly.
