Fang Li could clearly feel a growing sense of tension filling the space.
This made Fang Li’s heart tighten slightly, and his body became tense.
On the contrary, Fan Xinglou, as if nothing had happened, seemed to be rather pleased with this sudden change.
She directed her gaze toward the direction of the door and said with a youthful yet mature voice, “Since you’ve come, then come out. If you can hide from everyone in Jie Long Seventh Institute and make it to my Yellow Dragon Temple, you must not want me to go out to greet you, right?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a voice responded.
“The one who originally wanted to find you is me, so there’s no need for such troublesome formalities.”
With the sound of this sentence, a person seemed to appear out of thin air at the entrance of the audience room and walked in slowly.
It was a stranger, a woman.
She was dressed in a cloak with a hood that covered everything above her eyes, giving her a very suspicious appearance.
Of course, even without judging by her appearance, the mere fact that she had managed to break into the Yellow Dragon Temple, which was essentially Fan Xinglou’s realm, without Fan Xinglou’s permission was enough to label her as suspicious.
After all, anyone who entered without permission would either get lost in the endless corridors or be banished to a distorted space; there was no need for bodyguards to apprehend them.
However, the fact that she had boldly entered and even made it to the audience room to meet Fan Xinglou made her more than just suspicious; she was a newcomer, and something about her exuded both danger and darkness.
That aura made Fang Li’s heart inexplicably raise a warning sign.
As for Fan Xinglou, she gazed at the woman who had entered from outside the door, tilted her head, and exclaimed in surprise, “Hmm, there’s a familiar aura, but it seems a bit different. Who are you?”
Upon hearing this, the woman’s figure hesitated for a moment, then she removed her long robe shortly afterward.
Underneath the robe appeared a strikingly beautiful woman, dressed in plain ethnic-style clothing that emphasized her well-defined and youthful figure.
Normally, a woman like her would easily attract attention with her beautiful and charming face. However, at this moment, Fan Xinglou’s gaze naturally fell on what was in front of the woman.
In front of her hung an outrageously large necklace that exuded a mechanical vibe, with a massive jewel embedded in it, resembling a giant eye.
Seeing that necklace, Fang Li’s pupils slightly contracted. She raised her head and looked at the woman’s face, her eyes beginning to glitter.
Fan Xinglou’s eyes also lit up, and she exclaimed with sudden realization, “Oh, it’s you. I was wondering who had the audacity to break into my Yellow Dragon Temple. I was starting to get excited.”
“…You’re still the same as before. You’re not interested in anyone except formidable opponents,” The unknown woman said, somewhat unenthusiastically.
From their conversation, it was clear that Fan Xinglou knew this woman.
However, in the face of this person, Fan Xinglou seemed somewhat disinterested as she asked, “Did you come all the way here just to recruit me again?”
The woman fell silent for a moment and then spoke in a composed tone, saying, “You know, I’m currently running a plan in secret, and this plan requires manpower. Among the people I know, you are undoubtedly the most suitable candidate to be my assistant.”
In other words, the woman had indeed come to recruit Fan Xinglou.
And this wasn’t the first time.
“I’ll say it again.” The woman looked at Fan Xinglou and said in a tone devoid of emotion.
“Give me your assistance,” The woman said.
This sentence filled the entire audience room with a heavy sense of pressure. However, Fan Xinglou simply dismissed this pressure with ease, letting out a sigh.
“How many times do I have to say it? I’m not interested in your plans. I’m content with my current life, and there’s no need for me to get involved in anything,” Fan Xinglou replied.
“…I don’t quite understand.” The woman remained silent for a moment and then continued with her emotionless tone, “Someone like you, when you take things seriously, there’s no one in the world who can ignore you. Why would you willingly stay in a school like this and serve as the Student Council President?”
“It’s precisely because of that that I’m not interested in your plans,” Fan Xinglou chuckled, her gaze shifting to the massive necklace in front of the woman. It was as if she was addressing the necklace itself as she continued, “If you want to persuade me, you should at least try to understand human emotions.”
“That kind of thing is utterly meaningless,” The woman responded coldly. “Besides, you’re not exactly human; you’re an Ancient Immortal.”
Fan Xinglou burst into laughter. “Exactly because of that, interactions with humans are the most interesting.”
Perhaps realizing that the Monster Immortal had not changed her mind, the woman shook her head and spoke without emotion. “If that’s the case, there’s nothing more to be done. I hope you won’t become my enemy.”
Leaving behind these words, the woman turned to leave.
However, at that moment, Fang Li suddenly spoke up.
“May I say something?”
The woman’s footsteps immediately halted.
“Hmm?” Fan Xinglou seemed equally surprised by Fang Li’s sudden interjection.
In this situation, Fang Li redirected his gaze to the woman’s body.
More precisely, it was focused on the necklace around the woman’s body.
Then, like Fan Xinglou, Fang Li began to speak, as though addressing the necklace itself.
“Could you perhaps give me the body you currently possess?”
When these words left Fang Li’s lips, the atmosphere in the room changed drastically.
The tension that had hung in the air exploded, turning into an overwhelming weight.
Shortly afterward, the woman slowly turned to face Fang Li. Her eyes lacked any focus, and the necklace in front of her seemed to stare at Fang Li while uttering chilling words.
“It seems you know quite a lot.”
The woman, who had displayed no emotions throughout, suddenly emanated a cold hostility at this moment.
*Clang!*
The massive jewel embedded in the necklace suddenly lit up, emitting an intensely blinding light.
That light, like the deepest darkness, was both pitch-black and tranquil.
Fang Li was engulfed by this black light and vanished into thin air.
