"That’s why I always say you’re naive."
The tall Zhang Yan said coolly, "Yaoyao is a student at Hai University, and she comes from a good family. I even saw her family drop her off at school in a luxury car before."
"And what about Li Yang? You all know he didn’t even go to college, and he doesn’t have a job or anything. Yaoyao has so much going for her; Li Yang isn’t really a good match for her. It’s just that Yaoyao hasn’t realized her own advantages yet."
She was very pragmatic. In her opinion, Zhou Yao was pretty and came from a wealthy family, while Li Yang hadn’t even attended college. They were clearly from two different worlds.
"Hee hee, let’s not meddle in Yaoyao’s business. I’m sure she can handle it herself," the shorter girl, Sun Qiqi, giggled.
Hearing this, Zhang Yan smiled faintly. "I was just saying. Qiqi, don’t you dare repeat any of this to Zhou Yao."
As they chatted casually, two other girls stood not far away. One of them looked very familiar—it was Qin Yue, Qin Shanchuan’s daughter.
Previously, Li Yang had found the Dragon Palace Conch and caught Bluefin Tuna in the ocean, and Qin Shanchuan’s help had saved him a lot of trouble.
"Yueyue, look, it’s Li Yang," said a petite and lively girl next to Qin Yue.
This girl was none other than Qin Yue’s best friend, Chu Tingting.
They were also students at Hai University!
"Mhm," Qin Yue nodded slightly.
Her perception of Li Yang was still that he was just a bit lucky.
Before, at Xinhu Square in Jing City, Li Yang had revealed his identity as a Cultivator, and Qin Shanchuan had found out.
However, Qin Shanchuan had kept this matter to himself and never told Qin Yue about it.
"Sigh, look, Li Yang already has a girlfriend. Yueyue, you’ve lost your chance," Chu Tingting said with a sigh.
Hearing this, Qin Yue retorted irritably, "Tingting, you brat, what are you talking about?"
Chu Tingting giggled. "I just have a feeling that Li Yang is no ordinary person. If you stick with him, you’ll definitely be set for life."
"If you think he’s so special, why don’t you go after him?" Qin Yue snapped.
"But I don’t have any special connection to him, how could I possibly go after him?" Chu Tingting giggled. "Yueyue, you have such a huge advantage. Your dad and Li Yang’s dad have such a good relationship. Your chances are great."
"Say one more word and I’ll hit you. How many times do I have to tell you? I have no interest in Li Yang. He’s not my hero," Qin Yue said angrily.
At that, Chu Tingting quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Okay, okay, I won’t say any more."

Li Yang and Zhou Yao were strolling down the street, each talking about what was going on in their lives.
Of course, it was mostly Zhou Yao doing the talking. Aside from cultivating, Li Yang’s life was just more cultivating; he didn’t have many other activities.
"Li Yang, in three days, my class is planning a trip out to sea," Zhou Yao said with a smile.
"Oh? A trip out to sea?" Li Yang smiled. "Did you sign up?"
"No. I went on a cruise with my family once, and the seasickness was awful," Zhou Yao said, shaking her head.
After a moment’s thought, Li Yang smiled and said, "How about this? In three days, when you have a break, we can have fun on the ocean a different way. I’ll take you flying."
With his cultivation resources, Li Yang could have raised Zhou Yao’s strength to King Level, just like his family members.
But Zhou Yao was unwilling. The Spirit Fruits were too precious, and she felt she would have a huge psychological burden if she used them.
However, at Li Yang’s insistence, her strength had now reached the Celestial Level.
Hearing Li Yang’s words, Zhou Yao’s eyes lit up. "Okay! It would be so much fun if you took me flying over the ocean, Li Yang."
Li Yang had taken her flying before, but never over the ocean.
"Then it’s a date," Li Yang said with a smile.
Li Yang’s days were quite leisurely. Besides cultivating, he spent his time with his family and Zhou Yao. He planned to wait another month until his comprehension of the Thunder Law reached the right level to break through to the Law Realm. Once he did, he would inform Shen Xuan.
At that time, Shen Xuan would surely choose to contact the alien civilization and expose Earth.
Everything was developing in a positive direction!
...
The vast ocean stretched as far as the eye could see.
SPLASH!
The sea churned relentlessly. A wave surged forward, growing larger and larger as it rushed toward the horizon, seemingly without end.
WHOOSH!
Suddenly, a point of light approached at an astonishing speed. The point grew larger and larger, revealing itself to be a strange aircraft several dozen meters in diameter. The aircraft then came to a bizarre stop, hovering over the surface of the sea.
A portal opened on the aircraft, and a figure walked out from within.
This figure had a humanoid shape, but in all other aspects, it was completely different.
Its skin was completely blue, strange antennae grew from its head, and a tail extended from its back. There were faint, black, arcane markings on its face, and its eyes were purple. At first glance, it looked a bit like one of the strange lifeforms from the movie *Avatar*.
"Ah, a familiar planet. How can such a weak little planet occupy such precious mineral veins?"
A smile touched the figure’s lips, but there was no emotion in its eyes. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
"Shen Xuan, you blocked me for twenty years. I couldn’t do anything to you then, but now even the heavens are on my side. This time, upon my return, I no longer need to fear you."
The strange being waved its right hand, and a vial of blue potion appeared.
CRACK!
He clenched his right fist, and the vial of blue potion shattered, its contents instantly dissolving into the ocean.
Watching the blue potion dissolve into the seawater, a look of even greater anticipation appeared in the strange being’s eyes.
"Shen Xuan, you used to threaten me, saying you would contact other civilizations and expose Earth’s existence to the Human Race Saint Hall, preventing me from getting any of the mineral resources. This time, I will make you expose it yourself. You should be thanking me, right?"
"And now, welcome the gift I, Jin Mola, have brought for Earth!"
...
The car stopped in an open area.
Zhou Yao got out of the car. It wasn’t just her; her aunt Zhou Xiaoyun and her second uncle Zhou Tiantao were there as well.
"Haha, Li Yang, we meet again."
Zhou Yao and Zhou Xiaoyun didn’t say anything, but Zhou Tiantao’s face was all smiles, radiating an immense enthusiasm.
The first time Zhou Tiantao met Li Yang, their encounter had been unpleasant. Afterward, however, he never dared to act that way again and had even taken the initiative to apologize. Now, every time they met, he was incredibly enthusiastic—so much so that his warmth made even Zhou Yao and Zhou Xiaoyun feel a bit embarrassed.
Li Yang gave Zhou Tiantao a slight nod. He didn’t really hold a grudge against the man, but he didn’t have a particularly good impression of him either.
Zhou Yao was Zhou Yao, and the Zhou family was the Zhou family. In his heart, he definitely treated them differently.
"Li Yang, my second uncle and my aunt had some business here, so they came along," Zhou Yao said.
"Li Yang."
Zhou Xiaoyun greeted Li Yang. She was still marveling internally at her niece’s good fortune in finding someone like Li Yang.
