This is how ordinary people are; when they harm or cheat others, it can be the most deadly.

Luo Youyou checked on the other classmates and found no issues.

However, she did not lower her guard.

When Mo Jingyan came to class, he saw so many students. During the tour, he happened to see Luo Youyou and silently took notice of her.

They had a dinner appointment at noon today.

Mo Jingyan’s message had gotten a response. After yesterday’s verification of those things, he figured that boosting his abilities and making money would be effortless.

He even schemed subtly if they were friends now, would they become partners in the future?

If they became partners, wouldn’t he get more benefits?

These benefits wouldn’t cost him anything. Could he become someone who lives off someone else, without worrying about the future?

When Mo Jingyan thought this way, he was thankful that he looked reasonably well and could further develop his charm.

After Luo Youyou finished her mentor’s class, she could leave early to keep the appointment.

Due to yesterday’s advancement to the Foundation Establishment Stage, her abilities had significantly improved, reaching the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage.

Her Divine Sense could stretch further, and her body had been transformed. This was her true entrance into cultivation, extending her lifespan.

Her constitution and skin improved, making her change even more.

Previously, it was only the skin and marrow cleansing, but now the transformation penetrated deeper, starting from the bones.

Luo Youyou truly understood the change from inside to out, transforming her whole being.

Defects in her body had begun to change through cultivation.

Now her features were transforming—eyebrows, eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. The appearance didn’t show much change, but in others’ eyes, she was more refined.

Her eyes were more like water spirits, her ears could hear sounds further away, her nose could detect scents others couldn’t, being more sensitive.

With her mouth, she could taste what seasonings were used to prepare food.

For example, when consuming an Immortal Elixir, she could taste how many kinds of drugs made it.

These were skills that one usually needed to cultivate to a certain level to learn.

With her upgrading her skills, Luo Youyou learned new ones, which improved her smaller skills.

"Luo Youyou, I have something to discuss with you."

Liang Sisi blocked Luo Youyou’s way when she was about to leave.

Some people who initially wanted to surround Luo Youyou to get her autograph or ask her out also gathered around.

Of course, there were also those who came to watch the spectacle.

"I’m not available..."

Luo Youyou knew this person had no good intentions and didn’t want to heed her.

"Luo Youyou, you..., I know you like Lai Chuanyu and asked me to send a message to him. I initially wanted to find you outside to tell you secretly; Lai Chuanyu wants to meet you."

Liang Sisi pretended to be aggrieved, as if she was helping Luo Youyou, appearing in front of others like she was expressing their connection to Lai Chuanyu.

Playing as if there was no relation, for what purpose?

A secret crush?

The two of them had starred in a variety show. One wasn’t a celebrity but had already gained some fame. If someone took paparazzi shots of him and uploaded them online, it would start a discussion.

Though not in showbiz, she rose to fame because of the show, and her reputation now attracted public attention just like a star.

Liang Sisi was already a small actress, and due to heat-chasing, she had many fans. Of course, she did it to chase the heat.

Deliberately setting up this situation to tie their relationship together.

Even if Luo Youyou didn’t enter showbiz, she would drag her down.

"Liang Sisi, what are you talking about? You scheming woman, you’re the one who likes Lai Chuanyu. You two grew up as childhood sweethearts in the same city; do your fans know about your secret romance?"

Luo Youyou wouldn’t indulge her. Did she want to trick her?

Or did she want her to admit that the scumbag was her type?

Dream on.

How could she still like such a scumbag now?

"Luo Youyou, I know you’re jealous. Lai Chuanyu and I used to be just classmates who got into this university together, in the same major. We’re really just classmates and friends. You like Lai Chuanyu, and I’m just helping you guys."

Liang Sisi maintained her white lotus persona, but her eyes were malicious, using teary eyes to cover the darkness in her heart.

At this moment, people around them started taking pictures and videos.

Such a juicy event, how could they not record it?

How could they not leak it?

Some were for gaining followers, some for making leaks for money.

Some did it just for pocket money.

Some did it deliberately not for money but because they only needed some evidence.

Of course, some people had ulterior motives. If Luo Youyou’s reputation was ruined, preventing her from continuing her education here, or tarnishing her reputation at the school, she couldn’t enjoy all the admiration here.

Then if they pursued her, it would be easy to win her over.

"Luo Youyou, I know you like me. I originally planned to give you a gift today, to confirm our relationship. We become a couple. I even brought a gift for you. Don’t blame Sisi."

Lai Chuanyu, holding a box with a deeply affectionate expression, made others think he truly liked Luo Youyou without knowing the truth.

Since becoming a celebrity, Lai Chuanyu had changed his dressing style. From plain attire, he now dressed meticulously, which gave him a different aura.

He had little fangirls both on campus and in his class.

What he said attracted envious gazes from those little fangirls towards Luo Youyou.

Even some male classmates looked at him with anger.

Lai Chuanyu didn’t care about others’ looks or warning expressions.

All he needed to focus on now was his task and purpose.

The gift he gave was with purpose.

As expected from someone in acting, it was convincing.

Luo Youyou almost wanted to applaud these two.

If these two staged such a scene without ulterior motives, who would believe it?!

The various voices around became lively.

However, some voices joined the commotion, probably because they were bribed.

"Accept, accept..."

Voices from both males and females encouraged Luo Youyou to accept Lai Chuanyu’s gift.

Luo Youyou glanced at those urging her, and also glanced at Liang Sisi, who joined the commotion, but her gaze seemed off.

She then glanced at Lai Chuanyu, who still gazed affectionately, making it nauseating.

In others’ eyes, this act seemed like true love for Luo Youyou.

Without living another life, past Luo Youyou might have been moved by the affection and accepted the gift under their cheers.

In this life, how could she accept this scumbag’s gift?

It was already good enough not to kill him outright.

At that moment, a voice from the Green Ox reached her ear with a sense of urgency.

"Don’t accept, don’t let him open the gift."

The tension in Green Ox’s voice prompted Luo Youyou to be cautious, questioning what was inside the box.

Luo Youyou had a Divine Sense, yet she couldn’t see inside the box?

When she tried to probe, resistance stopped her from seeing.

"That’s a form of magic, a demon’s soul inside that Jade Pendant."

"If it’s opened, wouldn’t it affect me here? With so many people around, how can it affect me alone?"

"It targets you. The Jade Pendant given to you contains the intent to seize your body, such a sinister method suggests someone is behind this."

"What should I do? I can’t stop him from opening it in front of so many people. Do you have a way?"

"Of course, I do. I have ways to specifically deal with such demons, just watch me."

The Green Ox appeared beside Luo Youyou, then unleashed a Golden Light. Others couldn’t see its presence and the light, but the light enveloped the box.

As the Golden Light encased the box, the demon inside wailed, but it couldn’t escape the Golden Light’s formation.

Suddenly, Lai Chuanyu fell to the ground frothing, dropping the box to the ground.
