Chapter 166: Black Snow 2

  This is too amazing!!!!!

  Hei Xue stared at Xiao Yao, remaining silent for a long time, simply staring, while Hong Jie on the side was also in the same state, both of them looking stunned.

  "Have you found me very handsome!" Xiao Yao said at this time, stroking his chin.

  "Handsome?" Hei Xue and Hong Jie looked at each other, why did he suddenly say this.

  "Your flute playing is very good, are you interested in collaborating with me?" Hei Xue quickly got to the point, the carefree sound of his flute was telling everyone that he was a rare musical genius, with his accompaniment, even people with ordinary tone could become world-renowned singers, let alone Hei Xue, who would definitely become an unparalleled songstress with him.

  "Not interested!" Xiao Yao directly refused, just because others want it doesn't mean he wants it, he came here today just to complete the task, for those thirty taels only.

  "Hei Xue thought that Xiao Yao might refuse, but he didn't expect it to be so straightforward."

  At this time, Hei Xue felt that the situation was a bit funny. Previously, he looked down on Xiao Yao, thinking that he wouldn't be able to handle music and just came over to pretend, but in the end, it was himself who asked Xiao Yao to stay and help out.

  "Don't refuse so quickly, you should also listen to our terms! You're not just helping us, but also yourself. Don't you want to be more than just a Jianghu person for the rest of your life?" Hong Jie said at this time, if it's about negotiation, she was much more clever than Hei Xue.

  However, she was wrong about one thing - this carefree Jianghu person was just playing around temporarily.

  That's why Xiaoyao is only temporary, so he said directly: "Yes, I never thought of being a Jianghu person for my whole life!"

  "You haven't thought of that, which is even better. You should find a stable job, safe and sound, and enjoy wealth and glory. Now there's an opportunity right in front of you! As long as you accompany Hei Xue, you'll have fame, and with fame comes fortune and power. You can have everything!" Hong Jie continued, trying to entice Xiao Yao to be Hei Xue's accompanist.

  She can see that if Xiang Yang and Hei Xue work together, Hei Xue will definitely become a legendary songstress whose name will be passed down for thousands of years. This achievement is what every songstress wants to attain, and because of this, Yi Hong Yuan will gain even more benefits. More famous guests, more wealth...

  And she believes that with a free and easy person like Xiao Yao, it should be easy to move him, and she will definitely be able to persuade him.

  At this time, Hong Jie felt very indignant, why didn't anyone discover the talent of this little guy in front of her before, wasting such a good talent!

  But thinking carefully, if it had been discovered by others earlier, then I wouldn't have had the opportunity. Perhaps I should thank the Jianghu People's Alliance for their lack of discernment in discovering this treasure, which allowed me to get a good deal.

  "What am I supposed to do with these things?" asked Xiao Yao nonchalantly.

  "What?!" Hong Jie was somewhat bewildered, unsure what Xiang Yang was talking about.

  "Fame, wealth and power, I don't need any of those," said Xiao Yao.

  "What? What did you say?" This time, Hong Jie knew what Xiao Yao said, but she suspected that she had misheard. Was there really someone who didn't want these things?

  "I say, fame and power, I don't need them!" Xiao Yao said again.

  Hong Jie was stunned. She never thought that Xiang Yang would say he didn't need these things, which could instantly kill the vast majority of people, unless they were someone who already possessed them.

  Is it like having a carefree spirit? No way, not at all!!

  "Who are you?" Hong Jie looked at Xiao Yao with great puzzlement.

  "I'm Xiao Yao. A fourth-level Jianghu person, today's task is already completed, please contact the Jianghu People Alliance, goodbye!" Xiao Yao said politely and decided to leave. Because he didn't want to continue talking about that topic, and felt that he had nothing to talk about with these two women in front of him.

  "Ah..." Hong Jie was stunned for a moment, and Hei Xue also fell silent, looking at Xiao Yao.

  "Xiaoyao sir, please stop!!" Hei Xue said, calling out to Xiaoyao.

  "?" Hong Jie looked at Hei Xue, she felt a bit strange, although she also wanted to call Xiao Yao, but she didn't expect Hei Xue would call Xiao Yao.

  Although the sound of Xiangyang's skill is incredibly high, it doesn't make Hei Xue have such an action, because Hei Xue is very indifferent to everything. There have been many people with high power and status before, but she has never kept anyone, nor has there been many talented scholars who have not been kept either.

  Hong Jie thought that those talented men and people in high positions, from whatever angle you looked at it, were much stronger than Xiao Yao this Jianghu person. Even they didn't receive this treatment, so why was he treated so specially?

  Also, this time's task, she also found it very strange, why Hei Xue would release such a strange task, which made her very puzzled, however, since no one came, she didn't pay attention to it.

  "What's wrong, about the task, is there anything you want to add?" asked Xiao Yao, he only cared about his own task, and didn't care about Hei Xue's strangeness, nor did he know.

  "No, no, you've done great already. I want to invite you to a performance, don't know if it's possible?" Hei Xue shook his head and looked at Xiao Yao for a while before speaking.

  "Performance? A new mission?" asked Xiao Yao.

  "Hmm, it can also be considered a new task... Can you promise?" Hei Xue looked at Xiao Yao and asked.

  "It depends on what you're going to do, if it's just an accompaniment performance here, then it's fine." Xiao Yao said nonchalantly, implying that in other places, it would be a different story.

  "This isn't here, it's for the celebration in a few days, I want you to accompany me!" Kuroyuki said.

  "What celebration?" Xiao Yao was confused, what celebration, which one?

  "No way, Hei Xue, you're going to let him participate in such an important celebration? This is the highest-level celebration of the Great Tang Empire. However, with his abilities, he should be able to handle it! Youngster, you've hit the jackpot this time. As long as you make a good impression up there, you'll get whatever you want from now on!!" Hong Jie was initially shocked, then slowly began to understand, and finally started to feel a little jealous of Xiao Yao.

  She believes that if Xiao Yao participates in this festival's performance, he will definitely rise to fame.

  "The highest specification celebration of the Great Tang Empire? Are you referring to the National Day celebrations in a few days?" asked Xiao Yao hesitantly, he also knew about this celebration, but didn't dare confirm if it was the one.

  "Yes! At that time, we will enter the imperial palace, and all the emperors of the Great Tang Empire will attend. This opportunity is something that many people would want to get even if they had to crack their heads open, don't say no, this is much better than being a Jianghu person!!" Hong Jie said with a small joke at the end.

  "You're right, I don't really want this opportunity either, you'd better find someone else!" said the carefree person with a wave of his hand, knowing that there was no hope for this task.

  This celebration is a universal joyous occasion, there are festivities outside the palace and inside the palace as well, and naturally the scale of those inside the palace will be even grander!

  Whether outside or inside the palace, Xiangyang would not accompany Hei Xue to play music. This was not because he didn't want to attend this celebration, but because there was already a place for him in this celebration, and he had to attend, so it was impossible for him to split himself to accompany Hei Xue.

  And if he were to accompany Hei Xue, if the Crown Princess were to find out, the consequences would be severe!!

  "What? You really don't want this opportunity, you'd better think carefully, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance! With this opportunity, you won't have to do your Jianghu mission!!" Hong Jie looked at Xiao Yao with some disbelief.

  Hong Jie wouldn't know that these opportunities, which are rare for others, can be seen by Xiao Yao every day because he lives in the palace. Sometimes Ning Zhiyuan would also talk to Empress Long, and naturally, they would meet.

  Of course, Xiao Yao was still unhappy about meeting Ning Zhiyuan. He always felt that Ning Zhiyuan seemed to be planning something and it seemed to be targeted at himself.

  "I've thought it through, you'd better leave this opportunity to someone else! I'm afraid if I accompany you, you'll be unlucky later." said Xiao Yao casually.

  "You're afraid that your strength isn't enough, don't worry about this, you are the best accompanist I have ever seen." Hei Xue said to Xiao Yao, she had a little misunderstanding of his meaning.

  Even if Xīao Yóu's accompaniment is successful, Princess Cháng will definitely find trouble with Hei Xue, which is not something Hei Xue can afford.

  If it were Xiao Yao himself performing, the Princess would be delighted, but since Xiao Yao was only accompanying someone else, his status would have to be lower than Hei Xue's, which wasn't what she wanted to see.

  Unless it's with Princess Chang's prior consent, don't even think about ending this matter easily!

  "Just think I'm not strong enough! Fine, I'm leaving!" He flashed away, without giving Hei Xue another chance to stop him, even if she and Hong Jie called out to him, he ignored them.

  Although Xiao Yao was also very curious about why Hei Xue wanted to release this task, he thought that if he asked, he would definitely get into a lot of trouble. To satisfy his curiosity and get into trouble, Xiao Yao wouldn't do that!!

  After Xiaoyao left, Hong Jie was filled with doubts and surprises. She felt that she couldn't see through Xiaoyao, a Jianghu person. Aren't Jianghu people supposed to be those who would risk their lives for money? Why didn't he want this easily obtainable thing?

  "He's a very interesting person!" Hei Xue smiled, although she usually had a smile on her face, this kind of genuine smile was rarely seen, even Hong Jie had never seen it before.

  "Hei Xue, what's wrong with you today? Why are you acting so strangely! And why did you post this task?" Hong Jie was full of doubts, and either of the questions made her feel puzzled.

  Hei Xue's face turned slightly red as she said, "Because someone told me that I can use this method to find my soulmate..."
