Chapter 1298

~6 min read 1,001 words

It was like a prologue to the story before the curtain rose.

Miss Shen He's father, having lost his wife, was trapped by obsession...

【Only because that evil sacrifice determined the calamity~】

【If not for the heroine drawing her sword, all would have perished~】

As the singing reached this point, the young Miss Shen He appeared in the animation.

"Dang~"

A Peking opera gong struck.

The guzheng and vocals played in unison.

Added to Miss Yun Jin's clear and exquisite operatic singing, it instantly gave countless people goosebumps.

They felt as if they were listening to an opera, not a pop song.

Yet the rhythm in this music completely revealed a flavor of pop music...

One can only say that such an imaginative combination truly makes one unable to help but exclaim in wonder.

The screen was filled with 666s in the chat.

But Su Qian kept her eyes wide open the entire time, staring fixedly at the computer screen, with no mind left to think about anything else.

Perhaps because she was also someone with one foot in the music industry, the shock she felt was much stronger than that of ordinary listeners.

Amidst her shock, she threw herself heart and soul into the song and animation.

She thought that since the livestream had a recording, she would first fully experience the charm of this song.

As for the analysis... that could wait.

In the visuals, after the young Miss Shen He appeared and lunged with her sword at the evil spirit.

The music also began to grow urgent.

Not only did the intensity of the vocals strengthen instantly as the young Miss Shen He struck, but the orchestral music also began to exert its power.

Especially the sound of that high-pitched xylophone...

As a loyal player of "Genshin", Su Qian easily heard in this xylophone sound a variation of the music that triggers during combat in Liyue in the game.

Placing that piece of music here, it perfectly matched the scene of the young Miss Shen He battling the monster.

She could only say—it was simply marvelous!

【Mortal ties are hazy, immortal ties are vast~】

【Family ties disperse, invited to the Crimson Mansion~】

As Miss Yun Jin sang to this point, the young Miss Shen He in the animation was caught by Cloud Retainer.

The orchestral music in the song stopped as well, and the sense of tense crisis in the listeners' hearts instantly vanished.

【Vermilion silk binds the woodcutter of the rotten axe~】

【Traces of the wild goose in the snow are far away~~】

The erhu began to play, and the young Miss Shen He in the animation gradually grew up, her black hair turning white, surrounded by immortals.

【The crane returns, but the ancient ornamental pillar is gone~】

【Spider silk knots in vain, the soul banner flutters~】

【Karma and the red dust are vast and distant~ smoke vanishes~~】

Hearing this, an indescribable emotion surged within Su Qian's heart...

She felt heartache for Miss Shen He's childhood experience; and she felt glad for her survival after the catastrophe.

Finally, she wanted to sigh in sorrow because of her fate of the "Lonely Star and Calamity," forced to lock her soul with red ropes, ultimately seeing her mortal ties vanish like smoke...

It truly lived up to the line—Karma and the red dust are vast and distant, smoke vanishes...

A cold and aloof fairy?

No! Perhaps she was just used to being lonely?

"Sigh..."

She finally let out a soft sigh, her heart feeling incredibly complex.

Although she felt a bit stifled, this was ultimately Miss Shen He's fate, and she could only secretly resent Damn Mihuyou for arranging such a heartbreaking destiny for Miss Shen He.

She had thought that "Divine Maiden Sunder" had come to an end.

However, the animation did not end as she had imagined.

On screen.

Miss Yun Jin on the stage opened her eyes and said in a Mandarin tone: "The 'Divine Maiden Sunder' should have reached its end here, but today I shall add one more stroke—"

Saying this, her tone shifted, changing back to an operatic style, and she recited: "To sing for—everyone—to hear—"

This single line of recitation was so satisfying it felt as if the top of one's head had been lifted off.

Su Qian shuddered all over, feeling a sense of sudden enlightenment.

·· ······Requesting flowers··· ·····

As expected, Damn Mihuyou never disappoints!

But...

The story of "Divine Maiden Sunder" should have ended...

Didn't Miss Shen He ultimately lock her soul with red ropes and sever her mortal past...

And just as she was thinking this.

In the music, the rock elements from the previous chorus section sounded again.

The pitch rose another notch, and Miss Yun Jin's operatic voice was ethereal and clear, full of penetrating power while also possessing a gentle elegance.

【High-brow songs are not necessarily unrecognized~】

【There will always be a soulmate to harmonize with the clear lyrics~】

【Red tassels hunting, the sword like a meteor~】

【Pointing straight at the angry tide to wash the sea clear~】

With these two lines of singing, the animation changed to scenes of Miss Shen He traveling through Liyue Harbor with the Traveler.

Seeing this, and hearing the line—High-brow songs are not necessarily unrecognized, there will always be a soulmate to harmonize with the clear lyrics.

Su Qian was stunned.

Immediately following, her nose felt sore, and her eyes turned slightly red...

That's right!

After this part of the plot... didn't Miss Shen He meet the Traveler!

Instantly, scenes of Miss Shen He accompanying the Traveler to find the 【Floating Stone】 and other materials flashed through her mind.

The two interacted and became good friends.

The two stood side by side, confronting Beisht.

What "Lonely Star and Calamity"??

That was already a thing of the past.

It perfectly matched Miss Yun Jin's final lingering thought—

【At that time, the crane returned】

【In the vast world, there was no one to rely on】

【Leaving alone...】 ===== CHAPTER 1300 =====
