"Young Master Hua, Zi Yan knows you love to show off, but there are plenty of handsome men here. Stop being so smug and grab a mirror and a basin of water to look at yourself first!"
Nangong Ziyan gave him a smug look; she would never admit that he had become more handsome. Although he was indeed much more mature and handsome than when she saw him two years ago, especially in this red outfit, which damn well showcased his elegant temperament to the fullest.
"Tsk tsk, two years have passed and you're still the same. You're as stubborn as a dead duck."
Hua Nongying pouted in disappointment, then looked at Bei Minghaotian.
"Demon Lord, this is not a place for ordinary people. You'd better leave quickly! My father has set up a barrier on this stone door with his spiritual energy. If an outsider touches it, he will find out very soon. In two days, you will know what is inside."
Hua Nongying said with a serious expression that he had only discovered this place today by following his father's confidant. This year, people who came to see or participate in the Fengyun Competition arrived early, and he was busy with other things and couldn't pay much attention to them for a while. That's why he had the opportunity to follow them here today. Normally, he would have noticed any movement here.
"Even without waiting two days, I will know what is hidden in this cave?"
Bei Ming Haotian said coldly, his tone laced with undisguised sarcasm. Bei Ming Yaowei understood Hua Yubo's ambition better than anyone.
"Wow! Haotian, why didn't you say so sooner? You knew about this!"
"Yan'er, there's nothing good in here, you don't need to worry about it."
Bei Ming Haotian stretched out his long arm and naturally put his arm around her waist, looking at Hua Nongying with a smug expression.
Hua Nongying's eyes darkened instantly, and he felt a pang of sadness. He had heard about the Demon Lord and Yan'er, but he never expected that the two of them would be together when they met again.
Seeing Hua Nongying's eyes dim instantly, Bei Ming Haotian felt even worse. Was this little thing really that charming? How come she had so many suitors everywhere?
"Now that the Demon Lord is aware of this, please wait patiently and do not alert him."
The two men exchanged glances, but both knew what was going on in their hearts.
Bei Ming Haotian's eyes flickered as he squinted at Hua Nongying. It turned out he had known all along what his father had done. The Fengyun Tournament his father had established was a good thing for people from all the major continents, and an invaluable opportunity for those who pursued fame and fortune. Such a competition not only allowed them to showcase their abilities but also to become famous overnight, making their status and wealth flow like a fish in water. In recent years, many people had indeed obtained what they wanted from the results of the Fengyun Tournament. But was Hua Yubo really doing this for the good of those who pursued fame and fortune or wanted to showcase their abilities? Only he himself knew the truth. What's more, he made a fortune every time the Fengyun Tournament was held, and the people on the island also earned a lot. Although Lingxian Island was not as vast as the land of the major continents, it still had a population of over a million. Living by the sea, the abundant seafood made their lives very comfortable.
"Would you two like to rest at my residence for a couple of days before heading to the arena?"
"go……."
"I'm not going."
Bei Ming Haotian quickly interrupted Nangong Ziyan's flower-giving. He didn't like her being with him. Whenever the two of them were together, they would chatter incessantly, making him feel superfluous.
"Haotian, why don't you go? Yan'er is his savior. Since we're on his turf this time, we should make sure he shows us proper hospitality!"
Nangong Ziyan was unaware of Beiming Haotian's true thoughts. To be honest, she didn't like being in the wilderness. Although they could rest in their spatial rings at night, she preferred to rest in places filled with people. That way, she wouldn't feel empty inside, and she wouldn't think about the past. She wanted to truly integrate herself into Nangong Ziyan's life, rather than living with a shadow.
