Return of the King, Dominating the City-Chapter 1357 - 1342: Have You Heard of "Moon Reflected in Erquan"?

Chapter 1357: Chapter 1342: Have You Heard of "Moon Reflected in Erquan"?

"Song Yun... if I heard correctly just now, did Zhang Long call you Brother Song Yun?"

Dai Dai sat across from Song Yun, her eyes slightly shining as she spoke.

"He was drunk and calling people randomly," Song Yun said with a smile, shaking his head, "I’m just an ordinary guy. It just so happens we were friends back in the day."

"That’s impossible, he looked only half drunk. How could he randomly start calling you ’brother’? He’s definitely used to it!"

Bingbing exclaimed from the side.

"Alright, let’s head back!"

Xiao Hui interrupted Bingbing’s words with blurry eyes and then stood up with Bingbing in his arms, "It’s getting late, everyone."

Song Yun smiled and said, "Yeah, it’s about time we head back."

No matter how much Song Yun tried to clarify, some things are inevitable. For example, when they arrived at the place they were staying, both Bingbing and Dai Dai slipped Song Yun a note with their phone numbers when no one was looking.

Song Yun smiled, and without worrying about losing face, he threw the notes into the trash right in front of them. On one hand, he did this to show his commitment to Chen Lingshan, and on the other hand, to clearly distance himself. A friend chasing after your brother is one thing, but accepting their phone numbers is another.

"You’re so rude!"

Bingbing was dissatisfied when she saw Song Yun toss the note with her number into the trash can.

At that moment, Lin Kai, Wan Chunfeng, and Xiao Hui happened to be in the bathroom, so they didn’t witness it, but Big Head, sitting nearby playing on his phone, saw the whole thing. When he saw Song Yun throw the note into the trash, Big Head chuckled and continued to play on his phone.

"As long as my friend has a good time tonight, it’s all good!"

Song Yun said with a smile.

"I don’t know if you have any women outside, but... they definitely aren’t as fun as me."

Song Yun smiled and said, "I don’t like to waste words. You know what I mean."

"You..."

Bingbing frowned, pouting, and said, "Can’t we just be regular friends? Dai Dai and I both really like hanging out with you!"

Standing beside Bingbing, Dai Dai nodded and said, "Just as normal friends, don’t overthink things."

"Let’s be friends when fate brings us together again someday," Song Yun smiled.

"When the summer vacation comes, can’t we come find you for fun? If we’re not friends, how can we come and find you during summer vacation?" Bingbing said.

"That depends on Xiao Hui, whether he wants to bring you along. However, let me tell you," Song Yun glanced at Bingbing and said, "Xiao Hui has six-pack abs!"

"Crazy..."

Bingbing said, then turned and went upstairs.

Song Yun smiled at Dai Dai and said, "Actually, I think Big Head suits you better."

"Him?"

Dai Dai glanced at Big Head, who was engrossed in his phone, shook her head helplessly, and said, "Forget it, I still think you’re more reliable."

"Wan Chunfeng is really pitiful."

Song Yun also shook his head helplessly. Today, Wan Chunfeng had spent at least ten thousand on Dai Dai, while Song Yun hadn’t spent a dime, yet Dai Dai came over trying to cozy up to him. People are truly unequal!

Song Yun didn’t waste words with them, turned, and went upstairs.

Soon, Xiao Hui and the others appeared downstairs, said a few sentences, and then each went upstairs.

"Song Yun is a good roommate."

As they were going upstairs, Big Head said to Xiao Hui with a smile.

"Yeah, and he doesn’t have a weak background. Being on good terms with Zhang Long, wow," Xiao Hui shook his head and said, "We really don’t know what to say. Having a roommate this amazing, at least he respects us."

"Yeah, tonight you can have a good time," Big Head said with emotion.

"Have fun and be done, women like this are just for fun," Xiao Hui shrugged casually.

"Then I’ll have to find somewhere else to stay..."

"Your sacrifice is worth it for me!"

"Damn it!"

By now, Song Yun had returned to his room.

Inside was a large bed.

The room’s decor and furnishings were quite traditional, making one feel as if they were back in ancient times.

Song Yun had just lain down when the sound of an erhu began to waft slowly into his room.

Song Yun frowned, this erhu music had a hostile air!

The sound of the erhu, to an outsider, might just seem normal, and the more sensitive might feel it a bit piercing, but to Song Yun, it resonated differently.

This erhu sound was like a cold, sharp blade piercing towards him, especially towards his ears.

"Damn! Is someone challenging me?"

Song Yun jumped out of the window and saw, not far away on the stone path, the old man playing the erhu he’d seen this afternoon, sitting on a stone step.

"I must say, you’re quite disrespectful in your old age."

Song Yun said, looking at the old man.

"If I don’t provoke you, would you come out?"

The old man lifted his head, glancing at Song Yun.

His gaze was murky but held a sinister edge.

"I hate being threatened the most," Song Yun said, narrowing his eyes.

"It’s just to get you to come out," the old man said, standing and hopping slightly on the spot, as if warming up.

"Speak, what do you want?"

Song Yun asked.

"I heard you’re in the top ten on the War God List now. I’m in the twenties, thought I’d come and have some fun," the old man said.

"Twenties!!" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Song Yun looked at the old man in shock.

"I was in the twenties many years ago, but one day, someone knocked me off!" the old man shook his head helplessly, lifted his hand holding the erhu, and shook it, saying, "My hand got chopped off, it can’t be helped."

That hand was actually a prosthetic.

"What, someone who got kicked off the War God List dares to be cocky with me?"

Song Yun said disdainfully, though he was secretly on guard. Someone in the twenties compared to thirties on the War God List is a big gap, nearly a whole level difference in strength, though they’re down a hand, for someone ranked in the twenties or thirties, losing a hand isn’t a huge deal.

"Heh, the young ones these days are much more formidable than we ever were!" the old man chuckled.

"I couldn’t agree more..." Song Yun said, "Even if they’re more formidable, it’s standing on your shoulders they grew. If there’s nothing else, let’s not waste time, okay?"

"Heh, no respect for elders, you’re just like your father."

The old man shook his head, slowly stood, holding his erhu, and turned away, saying, "Come, take a walk with me."

With that, the old man walked off leisurely.

Song Yun hesitated a moment, then followed.

They walked for a good ten minutes.

The two walked through the ancient town to its outskirts.

It was a stretch of wasteland, with some trees scattered around, sparse and somewhat desolate.

"Have you ever heard of ’The Moon Reflected in Two Springs’?"

The old man turned to Song Yun.

"Yes, I’ve heard of it."

Song Yun nodded.

"Next, let me play it for you, my version of ’The Moon Reflected in Two Springs.’"

With that, the old man sat cross-legged on the ground, positioning the erhu.

Screech.

A piercing sound abruptly erupted from the erhu.
