Ch1

This is not the first time that Prince Changqin has left the Hongya Realm.

In this era, the gods still reside in the human world.

When chaos first opened, the three realms had not yet been established, and the scenery of this world was still in its pristine and beautiful state without any human disturbance.

The gods born after the creation of heaven and earth guarded the creatures on this land.

Prince Changqin is not a god, but a qin spirit that was born from the phoenix wood qin.

The fire god Zhurong made three qins out of the wood from the Mount Liang, named Huanglai, Luanlai, and Fenglai. Zhurong cherished the three qins, especially Fenglai, and often played it.

Fenglai turned into a spirit and took on human form. It could also speak human language. Delighted, Zhurong asked the earth goddess Nüwa to use the technique of pulling the soul to transform the qin spirit into a human form, treating it like a father and son, and calling it Prince Changqin.

Since Prince Changqin woke up from the qin, he often dreamed of a place, a place called Mount Liang in the human world.

If Zhurong was his father, then Mount Liang was his homeland that he longed for.

What appeared before him was a landscape like ink painting, with clouds and mist flowing and gathering. The mountains were layered and towering, with tall phoenix wood and young red flower trees growing along the mountain.

There were clear springs flowing down the mountains, converging into ponds, and a rugged boulder protruding from the mountainside into the water and clouds like a high platform.

Despite his calm and indifferent temperament, he was still moved by such a beautiful place.

A white light flashed, and a slender figure had already arrived at the top of the platform. The breeze carried the mist and flower fragrance, refreshing and invigorating.

Prince Changqin sat down on the ground, and the Fenglai qin was already in front of him with a turn of his wrist.

Only music could describe this scene.

His pure white fingertips lightly plucked and picked, and a new tune gradually took shape.

The music was concise, spreading with the wind, echoing in the mountains and waters of Mount Liang.

A young red flower fell into the water, and the crimson petals rotated slightly with the pond water, adding a bright and playful color to his music.

When the song ended, Prince Changqin sighed, feeling satisfied yet somewhat lost. Since he became a human, this was the most beloved tune he had ever composed.

Unfortunately, there was no one to play with in this quiet landscape.

While lost in thought, he heard rustling sounds coming from the nearby bushes.

Prince Changqin didn't pay much attention. Nowadays, the world is flourishing, and there are many wild animals in the mountains and forests. With his magical powers, he need not fear even if he encountered a fierce beast.

But the sound came straight towards him, the sound of scales rubbing against rocks, gradually approaching.

He turned around and met a pair of golden eyes.

It was a water snake. Such creatures were common near the water, but he had never heard of one with golden eyes.

Prince Changqin looked at the water snake with interest, and the water snake also looked at him, unafraid. Its ink-colored body slithered towards him, as if it were attracted by his music, and came straight to Prince Changqin's side.

After sizing him up for a while, the water snake spoke: "I have never seen you before. What's your name?"

Its tone was casual, like meeting a like-minded friend.

"Prince Changqin." Prince Changqin couldn't help but smile. It was really an interesting little water snake.

"My name is Qianyu. Prince Changqin, your music is really nice. I like it."

Until thousands of years later, at the moment when Prince Changqin was stripped of his immortal status and destroyed his original body, many memories came to his mind one by one, including the day on Mount Liang when he promised the little water snake:"Okay, then I will come and play for you often."

in that brief moment, even he himself was not aware of it, his hand clenched into a fist, and his knuckles made a slight sound:"I can't believe there is really a medicine in the world that can bring the dead back to life?"
