Di Juetian watched with curiosity. Was this the legendary crooked-mouthed Dragon King's devilishly charming smile?

A smile that no noble goddess or fairy could withstand, one that would send them tumbling from their pedestals.

In his previous life, Di Juetian had seen a joke.

"Watch him. Don't let his mouth go crooked, or who lives and who dies will be anyone's guess."

He had never expected to see it for himself now.

But Di Juetian had already seen this Child of Fortune's strength.

If things had been as before, Shangguan Qing'er would certainly have lost to the Child of Fortune this time. But now that he had intervened...

It would not be so easy for the Child of Fortune to win. Besides, since Di Juetian had made a move, he would not let the Child of Fortune win.

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Xiao Yu's smile. For some reason, she felt flustered.

Her heart began to beat faster of its own accord.

If another man had dared show such a smile, he would have slapped him to death long ago.

But this was Xiao Yu. She could not bring herself to be angry with him.

"Be careful. Qing'er's strength is no simple matter."

Xiao Yu's expression changed, then turned to delight. He had not expected her to send him a voice transmission.

It seemed Shangguan Wan'er's strength had grown remarkably fast over the past three years!

Di Juetian watched the Child of Fortune and the heroine of fortune making eyes at each other.

He smiled.

There'll be a time for you two to cry soon enough.

Laugh all you want. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to laugh later.

Di Juetian looked at Xiao Yu.

What exactly is this Child of Fortune's cheat?

An old grandpa, a system, or reincarnation?

Or something else?

Name: Xiao Yu Identity: young master of the Xiao Clan of the Xuanqing Realm, Child of Fortune Heavenly Mandate Value: 5,000 Strength: Profound Core Fourth Layer Physique: Fire God Body Cultivation techniques: Fire God Art, Lotus Flower Fire Ring, Fire God Palm, Absolute Yang Leg, Carefree Hand...

This Child of Fortune was quite good, possessing a Fire God Body.

His Heavenly Mandate Value was considerable too, much higher than Ye Chen's fortune.

Killing a Child of Fortune like this should be worthwhile.

Seeing Di Juetian glance casually his way,

Xiao Yu felt his rear tighten.

This man should be a man, right? Why is he looking at me so strangely?

Xiao Yu turned his gaze to Shangguan Wan'er.

"Wan'er, come here."

Just then, Di Juetian suddenly spoke.

The Shangguan Lineage fell silent in an instant.

His voice carried no imposing presence, yet everyone felt a crushing pressure.

It was as though mountains were toppling and seas overturning.

Xiao Yu's expression changed drastically.

Shangguan Wan'er's expression changed as well.

She did not want Xiao Yu to misunderstand.

Yet she could not disobey Di Juetian's order.

Shangguan Wan'er knew Di Juetian was not looking at her.

But it was precisely because of that that she felt the crushing pressure.

In the end, Shangguan Wan'er submitted.

Di Juetian's status was far too high. Her family was here, and she knew what Di Juetian had done before.

She had also seen what had been recorded back then.

For that very reason,

He thought Di Juetian intended to force him as well.

To make Xiao Yu follow Ye Chen's example.

"Aren't you going to pour me a cup of tea?"

Di Juetian spoke again.

Looking at the utterly empty table before Di Juetian,

Shangguan Wan'er realized what he meant.

Then her expression changed.

She had not expected to measure a gentleman's heart by her own petty yardstick.

The people of the Shangguan Lineage breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone else breathed a sigh of relief too.

They did not know why they were so nervous either.

Looking at the tea before him,

Di Juetian chuckled.

Though no one could see his face clearly, they all knew the young master had smiled.

"Give me a massage. I forgot to bring a maid with me when I came down to the lower realm this time."

Di Juetian spoke casually.

Hearing that, Shangguan Wan'er was moved.

After all, Di Juetian had declared back then that she was his maid.

Since Di Juetian was giving her so much face,

Shangguan Wan'er was also someone who did not know what was good for her.

She glanced at Xiao Yu, her eyes showing helplessness and a hint of explanation.

Xiao Yu was filled with fury.

But then he remembered how powerful his master had been when Shangguan Wan'er left before, and how even his master had now been filled with helplessness.

This young master's strength and status should both be higher than Shangguan Wan'er's.

Xiao Yu loosened his clenched fists a little.

He gave Shangguan Wan'er a look of understanding.

Beside them, Shangguan Qing'er watched the scene without speaking.

There was only a sneer in her eyes.

The others could also tell that the Shangguan Lineage's proud daughter of heaven seemed to treat the good-for-nothing Xiao Yu differently.

They just did not know whether there was any gossip to feast on.

"Shangguan Qing'er, come down."

Xiao Yu looked away.

He believed Shangguan Wan'er still had him in her heart.

Otherwise, she would not have sent him a voice transmission.

Then he looked away and turned to Shangguan Qing'er.

When Shangguan Qing'er heard him,

Her figure flashed and vanished, then appeared on the arena.

Shock showed in many people's eyes.

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Shangguan Qing'er in disbelief as well.

Then, as she massaged Di Juetian's shoulders, her hand slipped.

"I suspect you're charging into me with your balls, and remember your place. I'm not interested in you."

Seeing that Shangguan Wan'er had yet to react, Di Juetian spoke.

Shangguan Wan'er came to her senses after hearing Di Juetian's words.

Then her face turned red.

Young master, did you give Qing'er a fortuitous opportunity?

That's right. Isn't she your own younger sister? Don't you want her to win?

She could have won to begin with. I only helped make it easier for her to win.

"No need to thank me."

Di Juetian spoke offhandedly.

Then he said no more.

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Di Juetian.

"Di Juetian has a bit of a conscience, but not much. He's more black-bellied than anything."

It seemed Di Juetian already knew what had happened in the Shangguan Lineage.

Shangguan Wan'er sighed.

Xiao Yu was going to suffer a little this time.

She could simply give him some compensation afterward.

At that thought, Shangguan Wan'er looked at Xiao Yu, her eyes growing dreamy.

Di Juetian sneered.

What a pitiful woman.

But what does that have to do with me, Di Juetian?

Moreover, Di Juetian had plans of his own.

Did she really think he had helped Shangguan Qing'er break through for the sake of victory?

Victory or defeat did not matter. He simply wanted to see what methods the Child of Fortune had.

The Child of Fortune was immensely proud. He had made that three-year agreement back then.

No matter how great a price he had to pay, he would win.

Against Shangguan Qing'er as she had been before, the Child of Fortune probably would not even have needed to go all out.

Wouldn't that have sunk his plan?

"Shangguan Qing'er, three years ago, you descended upon my Xiao Clan in all your arrogance and broke off the engagement on the spot, making my Xiao Clan lose all face."

"I said it back then: thirty years the river flows east, thirty years it flows west."

"Shangguan Qing'er, it's been three years. Today I'll show you what I've been through these past three years!"
