Volume 1, Chapter 44: I'll Give You a Chance to Pursue Me, Oh

"If you're not interested in me, why do you keep peeking at me?"

Liu Yanran let out a cold snort. Ever since getting into the car, she had noticed that Chen Fan's gaze kept sizing her up.

"I'm looking at the rearview mirror."

Chen Fan was somewhat speechless. "Don't you look at the rearview mirror when you drive?"

"Hmph!"

Liu Yanran completely refused to believe it, assuming Chen Fan was just making excuses.

She was extremely confident in her appearance and figure. With such a great beauty sitting in the passenger seat, dangling a pair of long, fair, and attractive legs, unless a man wasn't really a man, who wouldn't take a few extra glances?

A quarter of an hour later, the two arrived at the auction venue.

As soon as she got out of the car, Liu Yanran rushed toward two elderly...

What happened within the Uchiha clan was largely unknown to outsiders, but Namikaze Minato's meeting with Caesar was known to everyone who needed to know.

Furthermore, Xu Yang still had work to do today, except that Manager Sun had told him he only needed to arrive at seven o'clock in the evening and could get off work at nine. As for the reason why, he hadn't said, and Xu Yang wasn't a nosy person, so he didn't ask.

The reason Xu Yang wanted to cut this gemstone was twofold. First, ordinary people could not tell the difference between this gemstone and other jadeites, or rather, the average person couldn't distinguish it. Second, at a glance, ordinary people would simply mistake this gemstone for bright apple-green ice-type jade because its color was truly similar to apple-green.

"The Sanctuary is preparing to make a move against our Canglan Sect." Yang Fan simply recounted the news sent by Zhu Rong. Although he didn't add fuel to the fire, it was still enough to shock the Supreme Elder.

Lu Tianyu never expected that his opponent could still increase his strength and speed. By the time he reacted, his newly healed ribs were broken once again. Not only that, but Muxi Li grabbed both of his wrists at almost the exact same instant, and with two successive "crack" sounds accompanied by Lu Tianyu's miserable scream, his arms were snapped.

It could be said that because of these rules, the present Taiqing Sect could exist; these were the fundamental basis of the Taiqing Sect's survival.

Neither asked who the other was, but at this stage, if two strategists playing this game were to ask such a question, it would cause the other to look down upon them. In truth, the opponent could also see through every step of Xu Yang's plan and figured out what Xu Yang was aiming for, yet Xu Yang's plan was locked step-by-step and link-by-link, leaving the opponent fully aware of it yet entirely helpless.

"Young Master Jiang is certainly slow, picking things out so carefully. Judging by Young Master Jiang's expression, he must be completely confident!" Kun Sha said.

Thirty minutes later, the Demon God finally finished his speech. Those in the audience had grown impatient long ago. Of course, there were also some who listened with rapt attention, worshiping the Demon God in their hearts.

Everyone was dumbfounded by this sight. Dusha Sha and Muxi Li were also left staring in astonishment when they saw Lu Tianyu in this state.

Passing by Duan Chengyu's doorway and seeing the slightly ajar door empty, Su Nuannuan suddenly remembered that he had already gone out together with Cheng Fei. Pausing slightly for a moment, Su Nuannuan took large strides and ran downstairs.

"Son, wake up, you'll be late for school soon." Li Yi's mother's voice woke Li Yi up.

Mu Chenyu and Ye Wenqing both turned their heads at the same time, seeing the displeasure written all on Jiang Jingluo's face.

Lily naturally sat right in the middle. Whether intentional or not, sitting on her left and right sides were Bai Shaoxing and Lin Xiao respectively. Lu Chen felt deeply resentful about not getting the seat next to Lily, but considering that he didn't seem very popular either, his resentment remained just that—resentment.

"The Li Family Town is right here. Drive forward for about another ten kilometers and we'll arrive. That high-level zombie is right over there," Xiao Yi said, holding a map and pointing at an icon to discuss with them.

Su Nuannuan lowered her head, looking at the outstretched arm, then looked at Duan Chengyu's expression, which looked as if he were ready for a heroic martyrdom, and suddenly leaned forward as if to bite.

Fei Yihan parked his car in a public parking lot not far from Yan Lan's house, then got out and walked toward the street near Yan Lan's residence, hoping he might run into Yan Lan there.

As for the Snow Elf and the newly arrived God of Magic, Wind's Lonely Rain, it was entirely a one-sided initiative by Wind's Lonely Rain to strike up a conversation with the Snow Elf, while the Snow Elf gave perfunctory, hit-or-miss responses, giving off a very dismissive vibe.

Su Nuannuan hurried along the pedestrian walkway, checking her watch from time to time, gritting her teeth and cursing Duan Chengyu and Ji Keyin countless times in her heart.

Almost in a flash, that dark current composed of bats surged toward Calder, looking as though it was about to swallow him up.

He slowly raised his head, only to feel a powerful aura suddenly emanate from the edge of the sky, instantly enveloping the entire plaza. The Buddhist pagoda radiated golden light, almost eclipsing the sun, as a figure wrapped in golden radiance stepped lightly across several rooftops. Within just a few breaths, the figure crossed a hundred zhang and landed steadily in front of Qing Ge.

With Ma Yongcheng present, Li Ziyuan had nothing to feel embarrassed about, nor did he need to put on any false modesty. When he spoke these words, his domineering aura was quite apparent, because he had ample grounds for such confidence. What kind of scene was it when he first took over the Hubei County Backbone Guerrilla Force two years ago?

Although Yang Yizhi was a bit arrogant and looked down upon everyone, aside from those traits, he was actually quite decent.

"It's fine, I'll go," Yun霜 replied indifferently. Having rested enough, she was once again that spirited eldest daughter of the Yun family.

Chu Luo'er stopped in the center of the plaza, loosened her hands, and slowly released Luo Xi. At this point, what use was resistance? It was better to let Xi'er go to avoid hurting her.

Amidst the gazes of countless people, Lan Youming, who had just been crowned as the co-lord of the Western Realm, gently embraced his wife and slowly rose into the air. In a daze, everyone seemed to sense six pristine white wings appearing behind him.

"The coronation?" Lan Youming nodded. He turned around, looked at the throne at the very top of the grand chapel, and slowly took a step forward, walking all the way behind Lancelot and leaving his back exposed to all the believers.

The ground sank deeper and deeper, and the fountain sprayed higher and higher. After about ten minutes or so, the landing point of the floating island had turned into a lake, and the floating island slowly sank down into it.
