Ji Wuyue couldn't be bothered to pay him any attention. This kid was even grinning like an idiot, making her want to give him a good beating.
“I said, senior sister, I was just making a suggestion, I didn’t say anything about how it should be done. Besides, I’ve said before that this matter has to be mutually agreed upon. Even if we don’t make a deal, we can still be on good terms.”
Who knew that after Lu Chen said that, Ji Wuyue became even angrier.
"You actually treat this as a business transaction?"
Ji Wuyue wasn't actually that angry with Lu Chen, but the suggestion was too much, making it difficult to say anything, let alone accept.
But Lu Chen's words at that moment seemed to ignite the anger in Ji Wuyue's heart.
I'll deal with you later.
Ji Wuyue glared at him fiercely, but at this moment, important matters were at hand.
Lu Chen smiled nonchalantly, then suddenly cleared his throat. When he saw everyone in the hall, his eyes lit up.
He unexpectedly ran into an old acquaintance here.
An old friend I haven't seen in a long time, someone I went through a lot with back then.
Lu Chen's gaze was fixed on the Demon Sect, specifically on a woman behind the Demon Emperor. The woman was also looking at him with great surprise. Their eyes met, and for a moment, they seemed to forget each other's identities.
This scene was clearly seen by everyone.
Originally, most people's attention was focused on Lu Chen. Everyone wanted to see if this so-called genius of the human race had three heads and six arms. But they found that he was just an ordinary young man.
At least, few people could sense Lu Chen's extraordinary abilities because they couldn't see through his cultivation level.
"Oh, Jingjing, you're here too?"
This familiar face was none other than Situ Jing, the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, whom he had encountered in the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm that day.
What surprised Lu Chen even more was that Situ Jing's cultivation level had also improved very quickly. Although she was slightly inferior to him, she had already reached the Emperor Realm.
"I never imagined that Situ Jing was actually an absolute genius back then."
Lu Chen asked himself if his strength had improved fast enough, but he believed it was all thanks to the system; he was cheating.
However, Situ Jing was able to cultivate to this level in just a few years, which shows how heaven-defying her talent for cultivation is. She truly deserves to be called the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned incredibly strange, even surprised.
You should know that one of them is the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect.
The other is the so-called genius of the human race.
These two people, who seem to have nothing in common, unexpectedly know each other.
Moreover, judging from the expressions of Lu Chen and Situ Jing, it was clear that they had a story together, a story of love and hate that was unknown to others.
Otherwise, neither side would have these expressions.
Situ Jing was even more surprised. She had thought that this legendary human genius, Lu Chen, was not the person she had known before.
Because that's impossible.
At least in her understanding, the Lu Chen she knew could never have grown up so quickly.
However, when Lu Chen walked into the main hall and looked at her, Situ Jing was dumbfounded.
It really was Lu Chen.
At that moment, Lu Chen winked at Situ Jing and then smiled.
Situ Jing found it hard to believe that this young genius, who had once single-handedly broken through the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm and risen to prominence, had now grown to this level.
Now, he has become one of the strongest people in the human race.
Situ Jing's mind was immediately filled with memories of the time she spent with Lu Chen. The two of them had ventured into the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm together, but after they parted ways, they never saw each other again.
Over the years, Situ Jing would still think of Lu Chen from time to time.
However, in her view, given her own rate of growth, she was destined to never have any further interaction with a human genius like Lu Chen.
But unexpectedly, we met here again today.
However, what Situ Jing did not expect was that Lu Chen would call her by her name directly, and in such an intimate way.
Jingjing! Everyone was stunned. There really wasn't anyone who knew the maiden name of the "leftover woman" from the Demonic Sect.
Situ Jing panicked a little.
"You've mistaken me for someone else."
Situ Jing had a cold face, seemingly displeased, and her tone was very icy.
All eyes turned to Lu Chen.
"Oh dear, you've already turned your back on me so quickly? I even hugged you back then."
As soon as Lu Chen said this, he suddenly felt a series of murderous gazes shooting straight at him.
When he turned his head, he immediately saw a group of black-clad figures glaring angrily beside Situ Jing.
Among them was the Demon Emperor of the Demonic Sect, whose eyes emitted a faint red light, making the surrounding space seem incredibly oppressive.
This person dared to flirt with the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, showing absolutely no respect for him, the Demon Emperor.
The Demon Emperor Xue Kong's face was terrifyingly gloomy.
However, Lu Chen completely ignored him and instead looked at Situ Jing with a smile, saying, "What business is it of yours if I'm talking to Jingjing?"
Lu Chen glared fiercely, and everyone around him was stunned by his powerful aura.
In particular, the ordinary demonic sect experts around Situ Jing were unable to withstand Lu Chen's powerful aura and quickly lowered their heads to avoid his gaze.
Only the Demon Emperor Xue Kong could contend with Lu Chen with his own aura, but he felt that Lu Chen had completely controlled this space, while he was powerless to do anything about it.
