The Immortal Enchanting Melody is a unique Dharma Sect that combines musical scores with Immortal Techniques. It was created two thousand years ago by a brilliant Family Head of the Yany Family. Over the generations, the Family Heads of the Yany Family have refined the seven tunes to perfection, making them immensely powerful.

Unfortunately, the Yany Family members became infatuated with this melody and neglected the most basic Cultivation Techniques. As a result, when disaster struck, the Immortal Enchanting Melody was of no use, leading to the destruction of the family and the loss of their legacy.

Before his death, Yany Chengju had only reached the Ninth Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage in his cultivation. If he had broken through to the Immortal King Stage, he might have had the power to battle the Martial Emperor. But even so, he dared not confront him directly, for he was merely a minor official, while the Martial Emperor was a Sovereign, dominating the world. To face him head-on would be like smashing an egg against a rock, leading to an even more tragic outcome.

In just three days, mastering all seven tunes of the Immortal Enchanting Melody is extremely difficult. Wang Xiaoqiang decided to master one of the tunes first.

Yany Tingxiang fully imparted the Immortal Enchanting Melody to Wang Xiaoqiang and said to him, "Among the seven tunes, the most powerful is 'Obsession Music.' Human nature is such that people are more easily obsessed with something than with love, hate, sorrow, or joy. Therefore, the power of Obsession Music is immense. It can easily ensnare a person, driving them to obsession, from which even those with high cultivation cannot extricate themselves."

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Alright, I'll choose 'Obsession Music.' I'll try to fully comprehend it within these three days, master it skillfully, and on the fifteenth of this month, during the full moon night, I'll kill the Martial Emperor and avenge your Yany Family."

"Hmm." Yany Tingxiang also secretly hoped, because Wang Xiaoqiang's success or failure directly affected her life and death. Death was nothing to fear, but the Yany Family's great vendetta could not go unavenged.

The next three days.

Wang Xiaoqiang and Yany Tingxiang remained secluded in the room, focusing on the 'Obsession Music' from the Immortal Enchanting Melody. Since Wang Xiaoqiang had booked Yany Tingxiang, their unusual behavior did not draw any attention.

During the day, intermittent music emanated from the room.

No one suspected Wang Xiaoqiang's identity.

After three days.

On this day, it was the fifteenth of May.

Wang Xiaoqiang had comprehended and mastered "Obsession Music" from the Immortal Enchanting Melody, and could play it effortlessly. He had also conducted several experiments on Yany Tingxiang, displaying its immense power. Often, when the music began, Yany Tingxiang would fall into a state of obsession, completely under his control!

Everything was ready, only the east wind was needed.

That night.

A full moon rose into the sky.

The night breeze was cool and particularly seductive.

The Martial Emperor, feeling inclined, thought of Miss Ziyan and, accompanied by two Immortal King Stage guards, quietly arrived at the Yihong Courtyard.

Normally, when the Martial Emperor went out at night, he was accompanied by his master, Sima Jiang, but going to a brothel was an exception.

After all, for the Sovereign of the Empire to visit a brothel would be a disgrace, and with the war imminent, Sima Jiang would inevitably advise against it. The Martial Emperor feared Sima Jiang's nagging, so he did not invite him along.

It wasn't that the Martial Emperor was overconfident. In the entire Black Tortoise Kingdom, besides his master Sima Jiang, there was truly no one who could harm Mo Xuanwu.

After all, he was an existence at the Immortal Emperor Realm. But he had not anticipated that Wang Xiaoqiang had already quietly infiltrated the Black Tortoise Kingdom.

The Martial Emperor, disguised in plain clothes, arrived at Yihong Courtyard discreetly. He assigned one guard below and another above, ready to convey messages at any hint of movement.

The Martial Emperor then entered Ziyan's room. Ziyan cheerfully greeted him with a bow, but before she could fully lower her slender waist, the impatient Martial Emperor embraced her eagerly,

As the saying goes, home flowers don't smell as fragrant as wildflowers. Whether this is a psychological effect or not, men are invariably curious about women of the brothel and develop a fondness for them.

Just like how people, after cooking at home daily, crave the different flavors of dining out occasionally.

In the middle of the night, the Martial Emperor was awakened by a tune being played.

Ziyan handed him a glass of water.

After drinking, the Martial Emperor frowned and asked, "Who's playing the music at this late hour?"

"It's that Yany Tingxiang," Ziyan said with a sneer, a flash of jealousy crossing her face.

"Yany Tingxiang... who is that?" The Martial Emperor, busy with state affairs and war preparations, had long forgotten about the minor issues like the Yany Family.

So he was unaware of Yany Tingxiang's existence. Another reason was that Miss Ziyan, fearing the Martial Emperor might shift his affections to the beautiful Yany Tingxiang, had never mentioned her.

"She's the daughter of Yany Chengju, who dared to offend you and whom you later executed..." Now, Miss Ziyan was not afraid of the Martial Emperor's attention shifting to Yany Tingxiang because she had already belonged to someone else. The Martial Emperor was only interested in untouched maidens.

"Her daughter?" The Martial Emperor's eyes narrowed, a flash of disdain in them. Hearing the cheerful pipa music, he let out a cold laugh, saying, "It seems she's living quite happily, isn't she?"

"Mmm, ah, giggle, stop it..."

"Here I come..."

"Ah, stop, you're so naughty... giggle..."

At that moment, a joyous male and female laughter, the kind shared between intimate partners, emanated from Yany Tingxiang's room.

Hearing this, Miss Ziyan's face flushed with jealousy. Being young and left to guard an empty room, she was favored by the Martial Emperor only once a month, which was far from satisfying.

For the past three nights, hearing the sounds of merriment from Yany Tingxiang's room had tormented her, breeding jealousy toward Yany Tingxiang.

Taking the opportunity, she remarked, "That little hussy somehow seduced a man who ended up booking her for life. As a result, she's living more comfortably than anyone else..."

"Hmm, carrying a criminal charge, yet someone dares to book her. Who's so bold?" A flash of anger crossed the Martial Emperor's face.

"I heard he's an outsider, doing business in the Capital City, and extravagantly paid Madame five hundred thousand taels of Silver at once..." Ziyan deliberately provoked, obviously hoping the Martial Emperor would eradicate Yany Tingxue and Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Five hundred thousand taels of Silver??..." The Martial Emperor's eyes narrowed, "Does he own a silver bank?"

"Who knows, spending such an amount on a brothel woman might suggest he's the son of some corrupt official from elsewhere," Ziyan began to slander.

"Spending five hundred taels of Silver on Yany Tingxiang is clearly going against me. Doesn't he know Yany Tingxiang carries a criminal charge?" An angry and murderous glint appeared in the Martial Emperor's tiger-like eyes.

"How could he not know? It's clear he doesn't regard you, your Majesty, at all!" Ziyan's incitement was blatant now.

The Martial Emperor unleashed his Divine Sense and discovered a man and a woman in Yany Tingxiang's room. The woman was at the Seventh Transformation of the Immortal, but the man was only at the True Immortal Realm, so he dismissed them with a disdainful snort, saying, "How audacious! I must see who this person is."

With that, the Martial Emperor got up angrily, put on his clothes, and headed out.

"Your Majesty, wait for me." Ziyan followed suit.

The two proceeded toward Yany Tingxue's room. As they approached, the pipa music from inside abruptly changed from cheerful to obsessive, ensnaring anyone who heard it.
