Although Meng Zan never revealed his strength to him, he knew that he was very powerful.
Previously, when he was in the Lu family law enforcement team, everyone dragged him to the arena for a duel under the pretext of a competition, and in the end, everyone was defeated by him.
Without exception, every time he casually waved his hand, he would kill his opponent instantly.
This matter not only aroused the keen interest of Lu Cheng and the elders, but also aroused their fighting spirit, and they all asked to compete with each other.
However, the results were shocking - they all lost.
No one in the Lu family can defeat him!
When he revealed to the patriarch and the elders that Meng Zan was actually Yan An's subordinate, they suddenly realized, as if everything made sense.
However, for those Lu family members who were unaware of the situation (including Ye Wu), they were still looking forward to the day when the eldest young lady or old lady Mu would be able to compete with Meng Zan and help them save face.
"Well, so, if you are not strong enough, it is best to stay in the Lu family."
Lu Xiaoya was about to speak, but swallowed the words back and only replied: "Yeah."
So the two continued walking along the slope and stepped onto the stone steps.
"Brother Meng, why do I feel my shoulders are getting heavier and heavier?"
Meng Zan raised his head upon hearing this and used his mental power to carefully scan the surrounding environment.
"There is a formation here, but it shouldn't be difficult for you to get up there."
"Okay, let's continue up."
The two of them walked and talked, and after about half an hour, they finally arrived at their destination - the top of Yunluo Mountain.
This is a circular square. In the center of the square stands a lifelike statue of a woman with her hands raised high.
A thousand meters away from the square is the magnificent imperial palace.
At this time, the gates of the palace were closed, and dozens of fully armed guards stood on the wall, guarding it closely.
On one side of the square, a pleasant sound of musical instruments came from not far away.
Lu Xiaoya looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of people sitting together, playing various musical instruments.
Some people played the flute, the Xiao, and the Sheng.
Some people played the pipa, guzheng and qin gracefully.
The music is melodious and pleasant, making people intoxicated.
“This music is really good!”
Hearing her praise, Brother Meng smiled and said, "Not bad, actually I know a little bit about playing some musical instruments."
Lu Xiaoya looked at him in surprise and asked doubtfully, "Can Brother Meng do it too?"
She really couldn't imagine that this seemingly rough and unrestrained man actually understood these elegant things.
Given Meng Zan's rough and burly appearance, no one would believe that such a person could actually play a musical instrument.
"Of course, I like to play too."
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a subtle sense of confidence and satisfaction.
After saying this, he pulled out an exquisite dragon-headed huqin from his arms, placed it on his legs with skillful movements, and then sat leisurely on the stone railing outside the square.
He gently plucked the hu strings, and the melodious sound poured out like a gurgling stream. The sound was crisp and pleasant, as if it could penetrate every corner of people's hearts.
The voice deeply attracted Lu Xiaoya's attention.
She stood quietly by the side, staring at Meng Zan intently.
At this moment, she seemed to be brought into another world by the music and forgot everything around her.
After the song ended, Lu Xiaoya woke up as if from a dream and came back to her senses in a trance.
She couldn't help but applaud, her face filled with admiration: "Brother Meng, you play really well!"
Meng Zan touched his head a little sheepishly, and smiled innocently: "Actually, my poop is just average."
"No, Brother Meng." Lu Xiaoya's cheeks flushed again, like a ripe apple.
She lowered her head slightly, her eyes revealing shyness and anticipation, and whispered, "Brother Meng, can you teach me?"
Meng Zan noticed that her expression was very different from usual, and he couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart, and his heartbeat suddenly quickened a bit.
"Yes, of course."
So, Meng Zan walked to Lu Xiaoya and patiently taught her how to correctly support the instrument and pluck the strings.
The distance between the two people was instantly shortened, and each other's breathing could be heard clearly.
Danyu walked lightly on the steep stone steps. As she walked, she turned her head to look at the sweaty man behind her, with a hint of disgust in her eyes.
"You're a grown man, how come you look exhausted after climbing a mountain?"
Ye Wu was panting behind her, his forehead soaked with sweat.
He raised his head with great effort, looked at Danyu and said, "Huh~ Why... why is this mountain so strange?"
"It's like... it's like there's an invisible force pressing... on my shoulders."
Danyu stopped and looked back at Ye Wu. "I heard from my master that the people from the Tianxin Empire carved a gravity array here. Only by climbing up can the gravity array disappear."
Upon hearing this, Ye Wu's face showed surprise. "This... Is the Tianxin Empire just bored? Why did they suddenly create this formation?"
"It's really killing me!"
Danyu looked at his expression and couldn't help laughing, but then she remembered that she hated him, so she restrained her smile.
She pinched her chin, thought for a moment, and then replied, "Perhaps they are trying to prevent people like you from coming up."
"If everyone could easily get up, wouldn't Cloudfall Peak be packed with people day and night?"
