Chapter 2095: The Giant Shadow Beside Xie Yixian

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first.”

Before Xie Yixian could reply, she had already ended the video call.

Xie Yixian stared at the darkened screen for a long time, finally letting out a sigh.

He had many ways to snatch her away from Hua Jinyan, even thought about possessing her, regardless of her will.

But in the end… he couldn’t withstand her indifferent gaze, as if it could see through all his despicable thoughts.

He knew that as long as he took the steps he wanted to take to force her, she would never look at him again, never spare him a glance or a smile.

“How… should I treat you well.”

“Just friends, I know just friends.”

“But I can’t do it, can’t just think of you as a friend.”

“I like you, crazily like you, crazily want to monopolize you… but I know it’s impossible.”

“What on earth is so great about Hua Jinyan!”

“Bang!” He slammed the phone onto the ground forcefully, his expression turning ferocious and twisted: “Is it just because he appeared in your life earlier than I did? Just because I arrived late? Why! Why can’t you look at me more, why can’t you give me a fair chance to compete with him?”

She reminded herself time and again that their relationship was just friends, directly rejecting him, giving him no chance at all.

She was also warning herself that if she crossed the line, they wouldn’t even be friends.

Yet with Hua Jinyan, she was always so forgiving. Even though they weren’t even a couple, why could that guy propose, do all the things he wanted to do but dared not, and still get her forgiveness?

She didn’t agree, but she didn’t refuse either!

She was giving him a chance!

Why can’t she give me a chance?

“Where on earth… did I lose to him?”

“Because you’re too weak.” A voice thick with seduction sounded.

He looked up and saw a massive shadow.

Actually, after eating the chocolate given by Little Taotie, he discovered he was different from ordinary people.

Since then, these inexplicable things kept coming to him.

They glorified it as making a deal with demons to gain everything he wanted.

But what he wanted was never money, not power, just… her.

These things couldn’t even get close to her, just one punch from her would scatter them, leaving them utterly destroyed. How could they possibly help him get her?

So he never deemed it worthy to say even a word to these things.

“You clearly saw me, and heard what I said.”

“Why not consider cooperating with us?”

“I can satisfy everything you want! As long as you lend your body to me, you can have everything you desire…”

The black shadow moved closer, continually tempting him by his ear.

He remained unmoved, as if deaf and blind, walking straight through the giant shadow to attend to his own matters.

“Damn it! You stupid fool! A rift in the Realm has appeared, you’re all going to die, everyone is going to die!”

Realm? Rift?

Xie Yixian made a mental note of these keywords, still indifferent.

After Tao Shen and Tao Bin were buried, Little Taotie placed chrysanthemums in front of their graves, bowed, and then left.

She knew the two older brothers were not actually dead. She looked up at the sky, as if piercing through the thick clouds to look at Heaven, looking at the Heavenly Emperor brother.

Heaven.

The Heavenly Emperor felt his hackles rise, his entire body uncomfortable.

The Emperor filled a cup with wine, narrowing his eyes: “What’s wrong?”

The Heavenly Emperor shook his head: “Ignore it.”

The Emperor: “To think that after all these years, you were always just One Soul and Seven Spirits. No wonder you were somewhat foolish. Now that all Three Souls and Seven Spirits are assembled, you finally have some brains.”
