Strongest Medical Saint-Chapter 738: Fatal Flaw

What?

Upon hearing Shen Feng’s words, the old man’s emotions, which had been gradually subsiding, again surged violently!

Despite the Zither Master Circle not thriving much in the Middle Realm now,

this old man was one of the Deputy Pavilion Masters of the Zither Master Pavilion headquarters in the Middle Realm. He was also the Pavilion Master of the Flame Fallen City branch, He Haichen, currently a Seventh-Rank Zither Master.

The grades of Zither Masters ranged from low to high, respectively from First Grade to Ninth Grade, and above Ninth Grade was Supreme!

Presently in the entire Middle Realm, the person with the highest Zither Master grade was the Pavilion Master of the Zither Master Pavilion headquarters, yet he was merely an Eighth-Grade Zither Master!

Zither Masters could temporarily enhance a cultivator’s combat power, naturally making them sought after by all the powers of the Middle Realm.

In today’s Middle Realm, the status of Zither Masters rivaled that of Alchemists and Artifact Refiners and the like.

The Zither Master Pavilion was a relatively loose power; even disciples from other Sects, as long as they had a talent for the zither, could join the Zither Master Pavilion.

Of course, their Sects wouldn’t oppose this, as having their own disciples join the Zither Master Pavilion would only be beneficial.

He Haichen held a very high status in the Zither Master Circle, and this was the first time he had been choked by a youngster at the Nascent Variation Stage, his body faintly exuding the formidable aura of an Immortal Sovereign at his peak.

One should know that above the Condensing Immortal Stage followed True Immortal, Profound Immortal, Immortal Sovereign...

Each level was still divided into Initial Stage, Middle Stage, Late Stage, and Peak!

Given Shen Feng’s current cultivation, the likelihood of defeating an Immortal Sovereign Peak powerhouse was almost zero!

Facing the aura emanating from He Haichen, Shen Feng knew very well that this kind of old man was generally extremely devoted to the path of the zither, very stubborn. He had indeed interacted with quite a few such old men before.

Hidden Edge returned to the blood-red ring in Shen Feng’s hand, and under the pressure of the Immortal Sovereign’s Peak aura, not a trace of panic showed on his face as he was about to speak.

Yet it was the woman sitting in the pavilion who spoke first, "Master, why not listen to his reason?"

This woman was dressed very elegantly, giving off a mist-like, obscure beauty.

She was the Great Princess Xiu Zuixin of the Xu’s Dynasty in the Middle Realm.

Because her father was extremely devoted to cultivation, as his first child, he named her Zuixin, hoping that his children would also be as devoted to cultivation as him, advancing further and further on the path of cultivation.

Xiu Zuixin was indeed devoted to something, but not to cultivation; it was the way of the Zither Master! This left her father quite disappointed.

Zither Masters, despite their noble status, ultimately only served cultivators.

Today, although Xiu Zuixin’s cultivation was only at the initial stage of Profound Immortal, not particularly outstanding among the young generation of the Middle Realm, her Zither Master grade had reached Sixth Grade.

In the Middle Realm, she was absolutely a once-in-a-millennium Zither Master talent, and people called her the Zither Fairy!

And the Xu’s Dynasty to which she belonged was also a top-notch first-rate power in the Middle Realm, probably not much different from those top-tier powers.

Xiu Zuixin spoke because she saw the man drenched in blood before her remaining unflustered in the face of her master’s aura.

"Zither Fairy, this kid is talking complete nonsense. What qualifies him to say that your heart is not calm enough? Is he implying that his zither mastery surpasses yours?"

"Zither Fairy, shall I take action and teach this kid a lesson?"

Two angry voices came from behind Shen Feng; it turned out that there stood a blue-robed youth and a purple-robed youth behind him!

Shen Feng had indeed not noticed them immediately due to his hurried appearance just now.

Both the blue-robed youth and the purple-robed youth had cultivation at the Middle Stage of Condensing Immortal, and their combat power was nearly equal.

Zither Masters must concentrate the power of their music within the body of a Cultivator to truly demonstrate their proficiency as a Zither Master.

Typically, Zither Masters offer a certain reward to recruit Cultivators of comparable strength, arranging sparring matches among them while focusing their music on one individual to see how long that Cultivator, bolstered by the zither music, can overcome another Cultivator of equal ability.

Of course, during these friendly contests, the use of Immortal Techniques and such is not allowed, so the defeated party will not suffer any severe injuries.

The recruiting Zither Master will provide Pills to the injured Cultivator until their internal injuries are completely healed.

Many Loose Cultivators are very willing to take on such work, after all, it provides a good reward, and they get the chance to forge a connection with a Zither Master.

Not to mention being recruited by the well-known Zither Fairy from the Middle Realm, desire for such an opportunity is beyond count among Loose Cultivators, and even many Sect Disciples are willing to become experimental subjects.

The fact is, Xiu Zuixin is sufficiently beautiful, with an impressive background, and most importantly, she’s a once-in-a-millennium Zither Master talent!

The young man in blue and the young man in purple are among those recruited, they greatly admire Xiu Zuixin, and naturally, they saw this as an opportunity to show off.

Xiu Zuixin said indifferently, "I am more interested in hearing the reason behind his words."

Upon hearing this.

The young man in blue and the young man in purple ceased to speak further, they certainly didn’t dare to offend Xiu Zuixin!

Xiu Zuixin might treat everyone politely, but she possesses a quality that keeps people at a great distance!

He Haichen has always been helpless with his prized disciple; he looked towards Shen Feng impatiently, waiting for this youngster to speak up.

Shen Feng didn’t care about his own disheveled, beggar-like appearance, he looked at Xiu Zuixin and said, "What is the role of a Zither Master?"

Without waiting for Xiu Zuixin to reply, Shen Feng continued, "In battle, to temporarily enhance a Cultivator’s cultivation is the responsibility of every Zither Master."

"Many unforeseen circumstances can arise in combat. Just by appearing here unexpectedly, I have unsettled your composure, which reveals how poor your state of mind truly is!"

"Of course, if I’m not wrong, then you probably have never enhanced a Cultivator’s cultivation in the midst of a chaotic battle!"

"This is your most fatal flaw; no matter how high your Zither Master grade might be, you are all show and no substance!"

As these words were spoken.

He Haichen immediately fell into a daze. Given that Xiu Zuixin was a Great Princess of the Xu’s Dynasty, as well as his disciple, the Deputy Pavilion Master of the Zither Master Pavilion Headquarters.

Why would she enhance someone’s cultivation in the throes of battle? Even under normal circumstances, she rarely takes action in actual combat.

She typically only intervenes during sparring matches between recruited Cultivators, which always take place in relatively favorable environments.

All along the way.

Xiu Zuixin’s Zither Master skills have been continuously improving. He Haichen hadn’t seen anything amiss and was simply pleased with his disciple’s rapid progress.

Now with Shen Feng pointing it out, he suddenly had an epiphany. His gaze softened considerably when he looked at Shen Feng!

But as a Seventh-Rank Senior Tier Zither Master himself, being lectured by a youngster at the Nascent Variation Stage naturally left him feeling unreconciled.

Xiu Zuixin’s beautiful eyes gazed at Shen Feng, her lips curving into a faint smirk: "Zuixin would like to learn from you here; your Zither Master skills must surpass mine!"

As she spoke.

A teasing light flickered in her beautiful eyes.

Even though she acknowledged Shen Feng’s point, being publicly belittled like that was still uncomfortable for her.

Of course, there was no malice in her, and there weren’t many people around. She forgot how long it had been since she had shown this sort of demureness.
