Chapter 1042: The Arrival of Long Miaoyin

"It is I!"

Xiao Fan nodded, his gaze meeting Long Miaoyin's.

He had not expected his wife to attend this kind of banquet as well.

However, upon reflection, he felt relieved…

His wife was the daughter of the Palace Master, so it was quite normal for her to attend such a gathering.

"Gu Yuefan…" Long Miaoyin smiled and said, "I am very happy to see you again."

She could not help but use her Divine Soul to probe Xiao Fan's body once more.

The feeling the other party gave her was extremely familiar, and this familiar feeling was not fake.

It was the feeling of an old acquaintance, a feeling that only Xiao Fan could give her…

But as a result, no matter how she examined him from top to bottom, the other party's body showed no changes at all.

The other party just had this appearance…

Xiao Fan watched Long Miaoyin silently, sighing in his heart…

He also wanted to acknowledge his wife, but not now…

Behind Long Miaoyin stood a young woman.

This person was Xue Qiuhe, ranked 150th on the prodigy ranking, and a follower of Long Miaoyin.

Long Miaoyin thought for a moment, shook her head, and smiled to herself.

Then she took Xue Qiuhe to another place to be seated.

She had a very good impression of Gu Yuefan, simply because he was very similar to Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan gradually withdrew his gaze, not thinking too much about it…

He did so, but the others in the venue did not think that way.

Who was Long Miaoyin?

She was the direct Bloodline of the Palace Master, Ye Cang.

Yet, she unexpectedly treated this young man differently.

This was simply too shocking…

At this moment, Fang Chen revealed an angry look, feeling ashamed.

He had been ranked thirteenth on the prodigy ranking for so many years, yet the Palace Master's granddaughter had never looked at him properly.

Yet this brat…

These people did not know what had happened in the main hall a few days ago.

Therefore, they were unaware that Xiao Fan had already had contact with Long Miaoyin before becoming the thirteenth on the prodigy ranking.

The others were the same, all casting looks of envy and jealousy towards Xiao Fan.

This was the Palace Master's granddaughter, after all; how many people wanted to become her follower but were not qualified enough.

Yet she unexpectedly treated this brat differently.

In fact, most of the Prodigy Geniuses in the venue had the same thought as Fang Chen.

That was to find Xiao Fan an eyesore…

Someone at Pi Hai Realm Level 3 had actually suppressed them in the rankings on the prodigy ranking.

This matter was enough to make them angry.

But with Fang Chen, the most furious one, taking the lead, they were unwilling to provoke Xiao Fan.

After all, they did not know the other party's background and were worried about what would happen if they provoked some remarkable figure…

Xiao Fan's expression was calm, silently taking in the hostility of everyone nearby.

To him, these were nothing.

What was the big deal? He did not care anyway…

Long Miaoyin took Xue Qiuhe and casually found a seat to sit down.

During this time, her bright eyes would look towards the direction where Xiao Fan was from time to time.

"Why… does the feeling he gives me always feel so familiar…" Long Miaoyin muttered to herself in her heart.

Xiao Fan wanted to acknowledge her, but the current situation was too difficult.

It was simply impossible to do so.

This was the territory of the Heavenly God Palace, even though he had now obtained the title of the third-ranked for the Human Race on the prodigy ranking.

But compared to Yi Tuo, there was still a distance.

Moreover, he was unsure of Ye Cang's true thoughts and whether he would accept him.

What if he attacked him in a fit of anger?

Furthermore, he was the Human Emperor of the Nine Provinces, and this matter was also of utmost importance.

Was Ye Cang reliable?

Was he trustworthy?

These were all the problems.

Therefore, his identity must not be leaked for the time being.

"Gu Yuefan, do you dare to accept my challenge, you coward!"

Fang Chen stood up once again, pointing at Xiao Fan, and spoke in a vicious voice.

He had already provoked him once just before.

He was completely rejected by Xiao Fan and had also lost all face.

Now he was challenging him again, just wanting to see how the other party would answer!

Xiao Fan was holding a wine cup in his hand, his hand pausing in the air…

He did not look up, but instead, an invisible killing intent emanated from his body…

The people nearby all revealed playful gazes, watching this good show.

Anyone could see it.

This Fang Chen was deliberately challenging Gu Yuefan in front of Long Miaoyin.

If it had just been Gu Yuefan alone earlier, perhaps he would not have accepted the challenge, and that would have been no big deal.

But now that there was an additional Long Miaoyin, everything was different.

Long Miaoyin also fixed her gaze, a flash of displeasure in her eyes, and she was just about to speak.

But Xue Qiuhe behind her hurriedly tried to dissuade her: "Young Miss… let's not get involved in this matter, otherwise the Palace Master will be unhappy."

Long Miaoyin was speechless and held back the words she wanted to say.

Indeed, she had already clashed with Ye Cang countless times now because of her refusal regarding her relationship with Yi Tuo.

If she were to step in and stop the two sides because of this.

It would be nothing to her, but if it reached Ye Cang's ears later.

The latter would definitely cause Gu Yuefan to feel displeased.

Perhaps it would also lead to many other things.

"What's wrong? Gu Yuefan… your ranking is higher than mine, you are the third-ranked for the Human Race on the prodigy ranking, are you afraid?" Fang Chen sneered coldly.
