"You petty thief, how dare you be disrespectful to Miss Tan'er!"
Leading the charge was the young master of a minor faction under the Fuxi clan, who was currently grabbing Jiang Yuan by the collar and showing off his power.
What are you doing?!
Having just escaped from Sikong Long, Gu Anlei saw someone grabbing Jiang Yuan by the collar and immediately forgot about the plate in her hand. She threw it down and ran over, pointing at the young master of that small power.
"What, I think this senior is pretty, can't I even take a second look?"
Jiang Yuan, who was being grabbed by the collar, remained completely calm and even had time to compliment Mi Tan'er.
"Cang Yi, let him go!" Mi Tan'er looked at the person in front of her and found him strangely familiar. She even felt an urge to slap him when he spoke.
"Did you hear me? Let him go!"
Gu Anlei was unusually angry. She pushed Cang Yi far away and then asked Jiang Yuan with concern, "Are you alright?"
"King You of Zhou lit the beacon fires to amuse Bao Si, and it's understandable that I, Jiang Yuan, would get beaten up for glancing at a beautiful woman!" Jiang Yuan calmly stated his name. His evasiveness only aroused more suspicion. In any case, he was now a new person, and even if Mi Tan'er had doubts, she wouldn't be able to find any results.
"Jiang Yuan!"
Sure enough, Mi Tan'er trembled uncontrollably upon hearing the name. This was a purely instinctive reaction, because her Gemini talent allowed her to designate one person to protect her. However, the designated person formed a two-way contract with her, meaning that the two could potentially control each other at any time.
"Senior, are you so excited because you've heard of me?" Jiang Yuan extended his hand and smiled confidently, "That's good, it saves us the trouble of getting to know each other!"
"Senior, my name is Jiang Yuan. Would you be interested in being friends?"
Jiang Yuan looked at his hand and gestured for Mi Tan'er to shake it.
"Jiang Yuan!"
Mi Tan'er was filled with countless thoughts. Her gaze swept over Jiang Yuan countless times before she finally reached out and shook hands with him, saying, "Mi Tan'er!"
When they saw Mi Tan'er shaking hands with a strange man, the disciples of the Divine Emperor stared wide-eyed. As everyone knew, the young lady of the Fuxi clan was very aloof and reluctant to have direct contact with strangers, let alone be with the disciples of some powerful families.
And now, she's being held by a man.
"Senior Sister Tan'er, do we know each other? Why do I always feel a sense of familiarity when I hold your hand?" Jiang Yuan didn't let go, but asked with a suspicious look.
Little did she know, Mi Tan'er was also surprised, but she was not surprised by the so-called sense of intimacy, but by the unusually domineering aura emanating from this guy, a sign that only a divine body could exhibit.
"Now that guy is dead, I can use the treasures left by my royal ancestor to upgrade my Gemini talent, and perhaps I can re-form the Guardian Star Contract. This person is a good choice!" Mi Tan'er was already making plans in her mind.
Both harbored their own agendas. Jiang Yuan wanted to learn more about the Divine Emperor Family through Mi Tan'er and use their power to find the source and information about the Companion God. Mi Tan'er, however, remained unchanged; upon seeing someone with talent, she wanted to recruit them—yes, she wanted to enslave Jiang Yuan again!
She had no idea that she had enslaved the same person both times!
"Jiang Yuan, is it really necessary to hold hands for so long?" Gu Anlei whispered in Jiang Yuan's ear, because the two had already been holding hands for a full ten seconds.
"I apologize for being so abrupt. It's just that the feeling you give me, senior, is indescribable. I never knew what it meant to see through a thousand years in a glance until I met you today!" Jiang Yuan quickly let go of her hand, making full use of a man's innate skill—smooth-talking.
Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's words, the disciples of the Divine Emperor gritted their teeth. This guy was incredibly audacious, actually daring to flirt with the princess of the Fuxi clan.
Mi Tan'er smiled gently, not angry at all, and said, "It was my oversight just now, I misunderstood you, junior."
"Senior, don't take it to heart. As the saying goes, no friendship is formed without conflict. Some beautiful things start from mistakes!" Jiang Yuan's expression remained calm, but his words carried a hint of flattery.
"Hehe, it seems junior is determined to carry on with his mistake!" Mi Tan'er covered her mouth and laughed.
"Then we'll see if you'll do me the honor, senior!" Jiang Yuan bowed slightly and extended his hand to Mi Tan'er.
"How dare you! Where did you come from, you wild brat? Do you think someone like Miss Tan'er can just ask you to dance?" Cang Yi shouted angrily.
Mi Tan'er smiled but remained silent, but her movements suggested she had no intention of becoming Jiang Yuan's dance partner.
"The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of yesteryear were able to break free from the constraints imposed on their status by this world as mere mortals. That is true nobility, not the nobility inherited through bloodlines by ordinary people like you. Therefore, in my eyes, your nobility is worthless!" Jiang Yuan glanced at Cang Yi with disdain.
"You're spouting nonsense, you're courting death!" Cang Yi, who possessed the Heavenly Spirit Realm, naturally looked down on Jiang Yuan, a weakling in the True Spirit Realm.
"Oh, so do you think you're noble?" Mi Tan'er waved her hand to stop Cang Yi, and her gaze toward Jiang Yuan held a different meaning.
Jiang Yuan calmly replied, "Me?"
Mi Tan'er nodded.
I'll tell you after I finish dancing!
Jiang Yuan smiled wickedly, grabbed Mi Tan'er's hand with one hand, and placed the other hand on her soft waist. In front of everyone, he embraced Mi Tan'er and started dancing.
