Chapter 334 Unbelievable!
Chen Luo laughed for quite a while before stopping.
His facial expression returned to normal, and the huge black shadow behind him retracted back into his body.
The Death Spirit Mask was now in his possession, and next…
Chen Luo’s mind was racing.
He possessed all the memories from his previous life, and only needed to carefully recall what treasures had not yet emerged in this world.
His original plan was to first collect the three most important Spirit Rings, which were also the most likely to cause problems, and then search for other treasures.
And things turned out exactly as he had anticipated.
The collection of the three Spirit Rings indeed encountered problems.
The Void Spirit Ring had fallen into someone else’s hands.
But Chen Luo wasn’t anxious.
He had already obtained two of the three Spirit Rings, and finding the Void Spirit Ring wouldn’t be too difficult.
The Earth Spirit Ring and Water Spirit Ring would resonate with the Void Spirit Ring.
He only needed to break through to the Yuan Ying stage to fully activate these two rings and locate the Void Spirit Ring.
How dare you swallow my Void Spirit Ring, I definitely won’t let you off. Chen Luo recalled that mercenary, anger burning in his heart.
Neither in his previous life nor in this one had he ever been deceived like this!
Next, he would first obtain Wuji Daoist’s legacy, then break through to the Yuan Ying stage… and then search for the Void Spirit Ring. Chen Luo’s expression turned cold as he moved his feet and flew away.
…
As August was coming to an end, universities across China were starting their new semester.
Fang Yu received a text message from Guo Gang, informing him that the School of Literature would officially begin on September 2nd, and Fang Yu’s first class was scheduled for Wednesday afternoon of the second week.
In recent days, Fang Yu had been staying at home, continuing to improve the Soul Devouring Technique.
As for Jiang Dao from Purple Flame Palace, he had already asked Qin Yimo and Xia Xiaoying to help him search throughout China for people who mastered the Purple Flame Secret Technique. If there was any news, he would act immediately.
On September 1st, Fang Yu received a phone call from Tang Xiaorou.
“Fang Yu, where have you been all this time? Why haven’t you been answering your phone…” Tang Xiaorou asked a series of questions.
Fang Yu didn’t answer these questions and asked, “What do you need from me?”
“…I enrolled in the School of Finance at Nandu University. What about you? Which school are you in?” Tang Xiaorou asked.
“I’m not in any school,” Fang Yu said.
“Huh? What do you mean?” Tang Xiaorou was stunned.
“It means I’m not going to university anymore,” Fang Yu said casually.
“…” Tang Xiaorou was silent for a moment, then reacted with extreme agitation, “You… you mean!?”
“I didn’t apply to any university. I’m not going,” Fang Yu said.
“How can you not go!? You got perfect scores in all subjects on the college entrance exam, you could choose any top university in China, and you choose not to go!? You, you…” Tang Xiaorou was so frustrated she became somewhat exasperated.
“What did you want from me?” Fang Yu asked.
“I, I…” Tang Xiaorou was so upset she momentarily forgot what she wanted to say.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up,” Fang Yu said.
“Wait! Are you still in Nandu?” Tang Xiaorou quickly asked.
“Yes,” Fang Yu answered.
“I’m in Nandu too… do you have time later?” Tang Xiaorou’s voice suddenly became softer.
“For what? Are you treating me to a meal? If it’s for food, I might consider going. No food, no go,” Fang Yu said.
“Yes! I just wanted to invite you out for something to eat… and also…” Tang Xiaorou didn’t continue.
“Where are we eating?” Fang Yu asked.
“Hmm… there’s a nice Western restaurant near where I live called Yuhe Western Restaurant. It’s in the central district of Nandu, very easy to find,” Tang Xiaorou said.
“Okay.” Fang Yu hung up the phone and left his room.
He had been cooped up in his apartment for over a week, and it was indeed time to go out for a while.
On the other side, Tang Xiaorou put down her phone, her beautiful face tinged with a slight blush.
…
More than forty minutes later, Fang Yu arrived at Yuhe Western Restaurant.
Tang Xiaorou was sitting by the window, and when she saw Fang Yu, she quickly waved.
Fang Yu walked over and sat down across from Tang Xiaorou.
Seeing this, the men in the restaurant who had been quietly observing Tang Xiaorou all had slight changes in their expressions and sighed inwardly.
They had thought this beautiful woman was alone and were preparing to approach her.
But after Fang Yu appeared, they had to abandon that idea.
Tang Xiaorou looked at Fang Yu, her beautiful eyes flickering, and said, “Fang Yu, we haven’t seen each other for over two months!”
“Has it been that long? I didn’t notice,” Fang Yu said.
“Hmph! You’re heartless, of course you wouldn’t notice,” Tang Xiaorou snorted coquettishly.
Seeing Fang Yu again, Tang Xiaorou’s mood inexplicably improved.
But when she thought about Fang Yu’s decision, she became a bit angry again.
“Fang Yu, did you really not apply to any university? Are you lying to me?” Tang Xiaorou leaned forward, staring at Fang Yu’s face.
“I’m not lying. I really didn’t submit any applications,” Fang Yu shrugged.
Tang Xiaorou immediately deflated, looking resentful as she said, “How could you not apply? With such high scores, how could you not go to university? It’s such a waste…”
While Tang Xiaorou was rambling on, Fang Yu called over a waiter and ordered two steaks.
“I don’t want to eat, just order for yourself,” Tang Xiaorou said.
“I am ordering for myself,” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow.
Tang Xiaorou bit her pink lips, her feelings complicated.
She had thought they could be classmates for four years in university.
But now that hope was shattered.
She had been worried that Fang Yu might not choose Nandu University and would go to Beijing instead.
But she never expected that Fang Yu wouldn’t apply anywhere at all!
“Sigh…” Tang Xiaorou felt worse the more she thought about it and let out a heavy sigh.
Fang Yu looked at Tang Xiaorou with confusion and asked, “Why are you sighing? Does me not going to university affect you that much?”
“Of course it does!” Tang Xiaorou answered without hesitation.
“How so?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow.
“It’s… it’s…” Tang Xiaorou was about to say something, but when she saw Fang Yu’s face, she immediately closed her mouth, her fair cheeks turning red.
“What are you trying to say?” Fang Yu frowned.
“Forget it, I won’t say it. You wouldn’t understand anyway,” Tang Xiaorou picked up the lemon water on the table and took a sip.
Soon after, the two steaks Fang Yu ordered were brought to the table.
Fang Yu lowered his head and started tackling the two large steaks, while Tang Xiaorou turned to look out the window with complicated feelings.
At this moment, Tang Xiaorou suddenly noticed a man wearing sunglasses sitting at a table outside the restaurant, staring directly at her.
Tang Xiaorou was used to such gazes and didn’t think much of it.
But the man’s next action made her expression change.
The man took off his sunglasses, revealing his fairly handsome face.
Judging by his appearance, the man was about thirty years old, with distinctive amber-colored eyes.
He stared at Tang Xiaorou, blinked, and then blew her a kiss.
Tang Xiaorou had never encountered such bold behavior before. Her expression immediately changed, and she turned her head away.
Fang Yu was still focused on eating his steak.
Tang Xiaorou lowered her head and played with her phone for a minute or two, then secretly glanced toward the window.
That man was still staring at her!
This was too much!
Tang Xiaorou was somewhat angry and turned to call over a waiter.
“Respected miss, what can I do for you?” the waiter asked.
Tang Xiaorou was about to explain the situation when the man suddenly looked away.
But Tang Xiaorou still said, “That man outside keeps staring at me. Could you please say something to him…”
“No problem, miss. Which gentleman outside are you referring to?” the waiter asked.
Tang Xiaorou pointed to where the man was sitting outside and said, “That man in the suit!”
But at this moment, the waiter looked confused and said, “Miss, there’s… no one sitting there!”
Hearing this, Tang Xiaorou’s expression instantly changed. She widened her eyes and looked outside—the man was still sitting there!
“He’s sitting right there! How can you say there’s no one?” Tang Xiaorou pointed outside again.
The waiter was completely confused, not understanding what Tang Xiaorou meant.
In his view, that seat was completely empty, with no one sitting there.
“Miss, are you perhaps pointing to the wrong person?” the waiter asked patiently.
Tang Xiaorou looked outside, her face pale.
At this moment, the man suddenly turned his head and grinned at Tang Xiaorou.
“Ah!”
Tang Xiaorou was so frightened by this smile that her whole body trembled, and she screamed.
Several customers at nearby tables were attracted by this scream and turned to look at Tang Xiaorou.
Tang Xiaorou was now completely pale.
There was clearly a man sitting outside, and this man kept staring at her.
But the waiter couldn’t see this man?
This scenario was exactly like the horror movies she had watched before!
She never dreamed that such a scene would happen in real life!
“Miss, are you feeling unwell? Do you need help?” The waiter was also becoming alarmed.
Because Tang Xiaorou’s behavior seemed abnormal.
“She’s fine. You can go back to your work,” Fang Yu said to the waiter after finishing his steak.
“…Alright.” The waiter nodded and walked away.
Seeing that Fang Yu had finished his steak, Tang Xiaorou grabbed his hand like a drowning person clutching at a straw, and asked nervously, “Fang Yu, quick, look outside. Is there a man sitting in that seat?”
Fang Yu glanced outside, narrowed his eyes slightly, then turned to see Tang Xiaorou’s terrified face, and a mischievous impulse rose in him.
“There’s nothing there,” Fang Yu said.
“You can’t see him either…”
Tang Xiaorou completely broke down.
That man was clearly sitting outside, still smiling at her!
But apart from her, no one could see this man!
There was only one explanation for this situation.
She had seen a ghost!
