Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

Chapter 228: Chapter 197: Silver Robed Musician_i

“Friend Xu, I knew you would agree! Haha!”

Han Rui laughed happily when he saw Xu Mu visiting.

“I need to trouble Friend Han again!”

Xu Mu passed the finished music score to Han Rui.

“No problem at all! If it’s successful, I will also reap many benefits!

After looking through the score, an excited expression appeared on Han Rui’s

face.

“Friend Xu, we need to wait a few more days. Once there’s news, I will notify you immediately!”

“Good!”

Xu Mu nodded without thinking much.

Two days passed quickly, a message came from Han Rui stating that a certain prince was fond of his music piece and invited him to visit.

Xu Mu donned a new mage robe and followed Han Rui into the prince’s mansion.

“Are you the composer?”

Sitting at the head of the hall, a fat man covered in fleshy thorns was lying on the floor, propping up his round and rolling head with his hand.

“Greetings to Prince Tuan! That is l!”

Xu Mu stepped forward and respectfully saluted.

Not only because of his royal status, but also because of his personal capability.

Nascent Soul Stage!

The creature that looked like a meat mountain in front of him was indeed a very powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage.

This was the first Nascent Soul cultivator Xu Mu had truly seen.

When dealing with an expert of this level, he dared not show any disrespect.

Even without releasing his aura, the invisible pressure still made him feel like he was carrying a heavy rock on his back.

“Your piece is good, I like it! How did you create it?

Prince Tuan grabbed a piece of raw meat, weighing several tens of pounds from his plate, stuffed it directly into his mouth, bone and all. He chewed vigorously, and the bloody smell spread everywhere with the sea water.

There is no barbecue or cooked food underwater, most of the food here is eaten

raw.

After finishing the meat, he took a deep breath, swallowing the surrounding seawater into his stomach.

“To respond to the Prince! I…”

Xu Mu recited a tailored version of the Butterfly Lovers story for the Sea Race.

“The story is good! Reward him!”

Prince Tuan waved his chubby hand, and immediately, a servant offered a high-quality Spirit Stone.

Han Rui’s eyes almost popped out of his sockets!

Being rewarded with a high-quality Spirit Stone for a story was an incredibly generous deal!

“Thankyou, Your Highness!”

Xu Mu, apparently excited, took the Spirit Stone.

“You’ve written a good piece, but I don’t know about your musical skills yet,

can you play a piece for me?”

“It would be an honor to play for Your Highness!

Xu Mu brought out his Nine Strings Guqin Magic Artifact, and after tuning the strings, began to play.

Beautiful notes rushed from his fingertips like a stream of water.

After the performance, Prince Tuan couldn’t help but sit up and applauded loudly.

His massive body shook the entire palace as if it were trembling.

“Good! Very good! Aside from the gold-robed musicians from the Musician

Mansion, this is the best piece I have ever heard!”

“Thankyou for your praise, Your Highness!”

“You don’t have to be so modest, good is good. Are you interested in joining my musician house? I guarantee you’ll be satisfied with the treatment!”

“I would be honored to serve Your Highness!”

“Good, this is the contract, have a look!”

With a wave of Prince Tuan’s chubby hand, a prepared contract was immediately given by a servant.

Xu Mu quickly read through it.

Compared to the exploitative contract from Musician Mansion, this one had much better terms.

There was a monthly payment of two high-quality Spirit Stones, they provided mid-level housing, and Xu Mu only needed to perform five times a month, there were no rigid obligations, and he could terminate the contract at any time.

The main selling point is its flexibility!

After making sure there were no issues, Xu Mu left his Mana mark on it.

As of today, he became a musician in Prince Tuan’s Mansion.

A steward from the Mansion led the two of them to their new accommodations.

Thanks to Xu Mu, Han Rui was also recruited into the Mansion, albeit with much lesser conditions compared to Xu Mu.

After leading the two to their new residence and distributing their Mansion access tokens, the steward left.

From then on, Xu Mu started living in the Mansion. Most of his time was spent discussing music theory with the other musicians in the mansion and building relationships. Occasionally, he performed at Prince Tuan’s banquets.

With the adaptation of various tunes from his previous life, he garnered more and more favor from Prince Tuan and within a year became the head musician of Prince Tuan’s Mansion.

With this title, Xu Mu began to network using Prince Tuan’s influence, making contact with the higher echelons of the Sea Race Empire. With the help of his system, he met a large number of people and was comfortably successful. It was then that he realized the degenerate Sea Race Empire was heaven for him.

Because, as long as you had money, you could do anything, and his ability to make money was unquestionable.

Xu Mu transported resources from Cang Ming Ocean Territory and Tianhe Sect through Xu Yiren’s Whale Sea Gang, then resold them in the Sea Race Empire with the help of his avatar.

Being able to cross space rifts gave him an advantage over all the powers in both Inner and Outer Seas.

Although he didn’t dare to sell on a large scale for safety reasons, he still accumulated a vast amount of resources and contacts in the Sea Race Empire in just a few years.

Money, after all, is something everyone likes!

Everything he did seemed to go smoothly with the help of money.

It was as if flowers were blooming when he barely cared about it, and willows had grown into shade when he randomly inserted a branch.

Originally, he came to find materials, but he ended up establishing a lucrative business channel.

After winning the first prize at the Musician Conference held by the Yun Clan, one of the seven King Clans, he left Prince Tuan’s Mansion and became a respected silver-robed musician in Musician Mansion.

Having dealt with Qingyan, who was acting like a buffoon, he used his resources and connections to secure a position

Being the music teacher for the princes of the Sea Race!

“Master Xu! Please follow me!”

Donning a silver robe, Xu Mu followed the palace attendant deep into the palace.

When they reached their destination, Xu Mu handed him a high-quality Spirit Stone.

“It’s just a small gift, please don’t reject it!

“You flatter me too much, Master Xu!”

The attendant felt overwhelmed by Xu Mu’s gesture.

According to the information he received, this youngest silver-robed musician in history was not only amazing in his music talent but also had substantial backing. Six out of the seven King Clans treated him as an honored guest.

Over half of the officials within the empire had close ties with him, and aside from the true members of the Imperial family, no one dares to disregard his dignity.

Face to face with such a bigwig, as a mere servant, he felt honored to be bribed and dared not to accept Xu Mu’s token.

The servant was pushing it away but ended up reluctantly accepting it under Xu Mu’s insistent requests.

“If Master Xu needs anything, just let me know, I do have some influence in the inner palace!”

“Thank you!”

Xu Mu nodded with a smile and walked into a prepared classroom full of half-human, half-Sea Race children with an unusual black skin tone.

This was just part of his plan to make contacts within the Imperial family, hoping to bribe a few of them.

But when he saw a young boy with half-human blood, he froze.

“Why does this kid look so much like me?”
