The Lord's Mansion was engulfed in silence. Sura and Haiyang stood beside Ye Yinzhu, smiling as they listened to him play the zither. They had naturally listened to Ye Yinzhu play more times than anyone else, but each time, they still experienced that indescribably comfortable feeling. This was especially true for the "Cultivation Source Calm Mind Song".
"Sigh—" Elder Guru exhaled deeply and slowly opened his eyes. Although his face remained as aged as ever, his eyes had clearly changed. The formerly cloudy eyes were now shining brightly, twinkling with faint light. His complexion was ruddy, and he seemed to have become much younger all at once; his spirit was completely different.
"Thank you, His Excellency, the Zither Emperor." Elder Guru gave Ye Yinzhu a deep bow, with a strong sense of gratitude in his eyes. He didn't regard his own life as important and was aware of his dire condition, knowing that he could leave this world at any time.
