"Magical spells?"

  Luo Nan ended the call, unable to make any sense of the matter at this time. He didn’t find Xie Junping’s appearance at Frost River Reality odd, but the discussion here was on the topic of the mystic arts. Luo Nan didn’t really get this logic.

  When it came to mystic arts and magical spells, it certainly wasn’t a problem for Luo Nan to pass the buck to a few people and have them teach Xie Junping; Luo Nan’s current network of contacts could certainly allow this. However, it would be best to prevent trouble from happening due to the discrepancy in knowledge between the inner world and the normal world.

  What if Xie Junping encountered a fraud or something……Luo Nan felt that he should go help Xie Junping by acting as a gatekeeper first.

  However, Luo Nan’s main focus wasn’t here. The reason why he had logged out and abandoned his hero seat during his irreversible momentum towards victory was because Cat Eyes, an important character he invited, had arrived. She had contacted him via the HexaEar.

  He left the room after he spoke with Xie Junping and stood at the entrance to wait for her. By the time the call ended, he had already perceived Cat Eyes’ arrival but he was unexpectedly unable to recognize her instantly with a sweeping glance.

  It was only until the woman stood before his eyes and stared quietly at him did Luo Nan lock onto the target.

  Tonight’s Cat Eyes moved quietly. She wore a light blue high-waisted skirt, a knitted white shirt for her top, and beige high-heels. She dressed plainly today, her clothing not bearing any patterns.

  This was the first time Luo Nan had ever seen her wear a skirt. That’s why he wasn’t able to recognize her at first sight.

  In any case, it must be stated that old habits die hard. Even though she was obviously dressed plainly, Cat Eyes covered herself up with a black motorcycle jacket. It was embellished with rivets, and it matched her hairstyle that covered half her eyes and a large earring on only one ear. She also had on flaming-red lipstick. All this gave off a dispirited aura that spoke, "I’m extremely beautiful, but I can engage in self-destruction at anytime."

  Cat Eyes certainly must have drank alcohol before she came here. The faint smell of alcohol lingered around her as she stood before Luo Nan, but the faintness actually wasn’t unpleasant.

  Speaking honestly, Luo Nan felt that Cat Eyes dressed beautifully today. At the very least, it tailored to his taste more than the nightclub or hip-hop styles that he had seen before.

  Cat Eyes tilted her head slightly, sizing him up as well. Luo Nan didn’t know what was going on in her head, but under Cat Eyes’ squinting eyes, he felt a hint of disdain as well as provocation. In truth, she was not giving off a feeling of good intentions.

  Then, a smile blossomed from Cat Eyes’ eyes, eyebrows, and lips. It was a powerful display with her makeup, fashion, and modesty as a foundation. She extended a hand to hook under the crook of the young man’s arm. It was just that the high-heel wearing Cat Eyes was taller than Luo Nan by four or five centimeters. This movement was like a morphed embrace of an old friend. In short, it was very intimate, especially when her soft red lips drew close to Luo Nan’s ear and she gently breathed, "I have heeded your call, my master."

  The alcohol and perfume fused together to create a warm and intoxicating magnetic force that seeped into one’s heart.

  Luo Nan’s body instantly froze. It must be stated that he was certainly tense; this was the first time in his life that someone called him ’master’, and from a beautiful woman within hand’s reach, no less. The sensation of a soft, warm body could be felt on his arm.

  In this moment, Luo Nan faintly felt the abnormal secretions of two or three different hormones. This led to an increase in his heart rate, blood pressure, and so on. The sensation of hunger also appeared.

  However, more subtle psychological elements flourished after the instinctual reaction of the fleshly body. He was unable to discern further details, but all this led to the rise of stimulating elements that he was extremely sensitive to. His body didn’t even move, and his eyes looked straight ahead and past Cat Eyes’ shoulder as he whispered,

  "What did you call me?"

  "My master. The man who dominates me." Cat Eyes giggled softly, bringing upon an intimate breath that lingered around Luo Nan’s ear and nape.

  Luo Nan’s eyebrows jumped up. Cat Eyes’ voice was sharp, but there was quite a metallic texture to it when she deliberately lowered her voice and whispered. It was like a light razor that scrapes against the skin. There was a hint of electricity within the comfort.

  Cat Eyes’ actions and behavior were like so. She gave off a feeling of intimacy with her body, but there was an ice-cold warning and defiance at the deepest level. An even more intense destructive tendency was hidden deeper within.

  "Tsk!" Luo Nan was a bit annoyed. Was this like the saying, ’No good deed goes unpunished?’ He originally called her over to have a proper chat. All right, you can maintain your cold and indifferent attitude like before, but who are you trying to mock by donning this mistress persona?

  Could it be that I truly need to destroy you?

  This thought flashed through his mind, suddenly pressing the button of complex physiology and mental mechanisms in his body. He suddenly froze as an advanced line of thought broke through its shell. It was like a gorgeous yet sinister viper letting out a low hiss.

  It would be easy to destroy her!

  The thought was formed, and the first thing that reacted was his body’s instincts. In an instant, all sorts of hormones exploded in their levels of secretion within Luo Nan’s body. His heart rate, blood pressure, and hunger sensation all increased once more, forming a feeling of excitement and stimulation that he had never experienced before in his life.

  The excitement and stimulation was so sudden and intense that an astonishing heat exploded from Luo Nan’s inner organs. His body practically seemed to expand by a factor.

  This sudden burst of energy acted upon his nervous system. Luo Nan subconsciously raised his arm and touched Cat Eyes’ elbow, and he subconsciously clasped down with his fingers, holding a firm grip.

  There were rivets embedded in the motorcycle jacket at this location. The metal kernel pressed into his palm, creating a bit of pain.

  It was in this moment that Cat Eyes’ teasing title came for a three-hit combo, "Master, is there something you need?"

  "Ah!"

  Luo Nan looked straight ahead, not looking at Cat Eyes at all. He only allowed Cat Eyes see the side of his face. The corners of his lips hooked up after he spat out a warm and dry breath. He put a bit of effort into the muscles of his cheeks, but compared to the restlessness of the living starry sky, his efforts weren’t really worth mentioning.

  The stimulation of the faint pain in his palm pushed out the rash yet tough emotions. It was akin to a ball of fireworks piercing through the clouds. It burned the living starry sky, shining with a brightness that caused the stars to appear faint.

  The others were fine. It was just his closely connected believers who had minute deformations in the stellar orbits of their Life Sketches. There was the possibility of chaotic imbalances in the next moment.

  Those who were influenced were certainly not limited to Cat Eyes.

  Luo Nan finally felt that something was wrong. His thoughts churned again, and his impulsive emotions were buried. Only then were the ripples and the turmoil eliminated from the living starry sky. Luckily, a crisis hadn’t formed. There were just faint undulation with his believers on a level that was hard to detect, and Cat Eyes, who was standing before him, was obviously unaware of it.

  Therefore, in essence, Cat Eyes was merely speaking superficially. She was powerless to her own fate.

  She was truly pitiful!

  After suppressing the restless emotions, Luo Nan was restored his usual way of thinking. He focused on Cat Eyes and even felt a hint of pity for her……uh, such a description was too hypocritical.

  In any case, Luo Nan was able to wipe away those extreme thoughts for now, but the differences in level, which had its origins in the living starry sky, naturally pushed his state of mind to higher heights. This wiped away most of his worries, allowing him to speak more easily and casually.

  "Call me something else. This title is too laughable."

  Cat Eyes was unaware that a fatal crisis had been unleashed in a breath’s instant just now, only to silently scatter away. The negative emotions that filled her heart pushed their way to the surface, turning into endless mockery and provocation.

  "How about, ’my boss’?"

  "……up to you." Luo Nan had some awareness of being a ’boss’. Perhaps Cat Eyes held a similar image of him in her eyes. There was no point in forcefully changing her mind.

  He was still holding on to Cat Eyes’ elbow at this time. The two were joined together in a more dynamic fashion than before. It was all right when Luo Nan was affected by restless emotions, but there was something not quite right about it now.

  Luo Nan was the first to let go. He softly said, "Brother Papercut will arrive in a bit. I’m here waiting for him. You can go inside first. Leister’s there."

  Cat Eyes was clearly shocked when she heard the names Papercut and Xue Lei. The situation was a bit different than what she expected; enough to make things a bit awkward……well, maybe.

  "As you order, Boss." Cat Eyes finally released Luo Nan’s arm. Her lips drew into a slightly intoxicating smile that seemed to be mocking him as she walked inside the room.

  Luo Nan didn’t budge a single inch for a moment. After she let go of his hand, the arm that was slightly flung away by Cat Eyes was still a bit stiff.

  His words were simply an excuse. He had long since got in contact with Papercut; Papercut and Tian Si were in the strategy room right now. They would arrive soon. he knew where Papercut was at, what was the point of waiting to greet him?

  The reason for this was to create a moment’s cushion.

  Tonight’s occasion had already far exceeded what he had originally imagined. Without Papercut present, not only did he not know what to say, the current mood was also quite bad.

  Yes, the restless emotions that Luo Nan just suppressed had resurfaced for trouble the moment Cat Eyes had left.

  Gorgeous and bewildering light effects, the interweaving two-dimensions and three-dimensions in area A, were erected at the entrance of the luxury room. It made him even more agitated than how he normally would be.

  It was natural for there to be advertising in dense areas with high people traffic. Eight out of ten of them were supported by handsome men and beautiful women. The Luo Nan of the past would have disregarded these advertisements, but today he had a different sensation when he saw the beautiful female stars flash past the screens.

  It really was different.

  Before, when facing Cat Eyes, the alluring fragrance, the attractive forces, and the mistress-like behavior were merely simple concepts and descriptions. They were concepts and descriptions that were used when thought appropriate. However, under the bewildering light and shadow, these rigid concepts were like the sensations that still remained in most of his body. They were faintly discernible, and they became alive one after another.

  The structured world operated in established principles, principles that were turning more and more complex and chaotic.

  Luo Nan subconsciously licked his lips. He waited a minute or so; he had yet to see Papercut arrive. Even Xie Junping, who wanted to come and ask for some advice, couldn’t be seen at all.

  Things were different in the room. Although only Cat Eyes and Xue Lei were in there, the atmosphere was actually quite good. They chatted delightedly. All of this was mapped on Luo Nan’s sensing network. It was as if he was there in person.

  Xue Lei was asking Cat Eyes about her profession. He was very curious about the life state of such an experienced ability user.

  Cat Eyes raised a slice of fruit as she casually said, "I’m just an ordinary dance teacher. I partnered up with some people to form a dance studio. Primarily, we provide short term training in the entertainment circle, and occasionally we do some choreography."

  "Wow, do you meet a lot of celebrities?"

  "Not really. We mainly train newcomers, as well as stupid young women or two-faced women who stupidly dream of becoming celebrities. But there’s quite a few of them who may go sell their company and sing for clients. It’s very interesting."

  Cat Eyes gave Xue Lei a smile as she continued to say, "If you have the time, you can come to my place, earn a bit of extra money, and get to know some beautiful girls."

  She gestured in the air for Xue Lei, "Those girls would hate not being able to eat a young strong man with a nice physique such as yourself."

  Xue Lei’s face immediately flushed red. He waved his hand, "Well, I don’t know how to dance."

  "Traditional martial art can be considered a type of dance. Although the live-action movie market is down at the moment, there’s always a market for superhero films, kung-fu films and the like. Many management companies are seeking people for this field."

  "I-I’m still helping out with my gym master." Xue Lei couldn’t quite get rid of the topic. He just barely found himself an excuse, but God knew that the Divine Yu Gym was closing for good. What can Xue Lei go help out with?

  Cat Eyes went, "Oh," and said, "I had the impression that the daoguan is your life. Are you thinking of opening your own daoguan in the future and taking in disciples?"

  "Yeah, that is my dream. To be like the gym master or Mr. Giant Arm of the Society……"

  The discussion reached that of dreams and ideals. It should be fine to go inside, right?

  Luo Nan drew in a deep breath and donned a mask of indifference before walking into the room.

  Cat Eyes saw Luo Nan enter the room. She just pretended she didn’t, holding an expression that was totally different from the intimate one she had outside. In the end, it was Xue Lei who let out a long breath. His burly body withdrew into the sofa, showing that he was unable to fight against this big sister, that Nanster had better come.

  The luxury room was quite large. There were seats beneath the lockers for chatting and conversation, and there was also a sofa in the corner. Cat Eyes and Xue Lei sat on the two sides of the corner sofa. Cat Eyes was sitting in the middle of her side, while Xue Lei was sitting in the corner. They maintained a respectful distance for socializing.

  Luo Nan looked at them and walked over. As he walked, he thought about sitting over by Xue Lei’s side, but he soon walked past the coffee table in a lapse of concentration. He walked to the middle position, where Cat Eyes was sitting.

  Xue Lei didn’t think too much of the matter. He picked up a canned drink on the table, tossed it over to him, and said, "You haven’t tried any of the fruits. The taste will be off if they sit out for too long."

  Luo Nan took the drink and casually sat next to Cat Eyes. The sofa must have been too soft, for his body sunk down the moment he sat down. What had once been a respectful distance had shortened quite a bit in an instant.

  He drew close to Cat Eyes’ body once more when he reached out to grab some fruit. He didn’t know what part of her body he touched; he just felt a shock go through his elbow. Plus, his mouth secreted a lot of saliva, perhaps due to the stimulation from his gastric liquid. His cheeks tingled, and his breathing changed.

  Was he nervous? Or was he feeling pleasure?

  Luo Nan wanted to do some self-analysis, but the thoughts in his mind were far too chaotic. They exceeded his previous thought of "destroying someone’ a moment before.

  Cat Eyes uttered not a single word.

  Luo Nan took a sliced apple and took a bite out of it. He didn’t feel anything from it, but his mouth secreted a lot of saliva once more.

  Yes, it was sour.

  Cat Eyes swayed her canned drink at this time, "This stuff is boring. Is there alcohol?"

  "I think there’s some in the fridge." Xue Lei immediately got up to go check. He looked inside and said, "There’s one bottle of whiskey left."

  "Is there ice?"

  "There’s a jar of it."

  "Then bring them all over. Also bring some cups. Three of them."

  "Huh?"

  "Y’all will drink too. What’s the point of a person drinking by herself?"

  "We’re not of legal age." Xue Lei expressed himself as a good kid.

  Cat Eyes laughed freely, "The reason why minors shouldn’t drink alcohol is because their organs haven’t finished developing. The stimulation from alcohol will bury hidden damage. However, you are all already ability users. What are you afraid of?!"

  Xue Lei was in a bind, but he still rummaged through the fridge.

  Taking advantage of the moment when Xue Lei had his back to them, Cat Eyes leaned toward Luo Nan and leaned her red lips close to Luo Nan’s ear, "Boss, if you want to take advantage of someone, alcohol is a good excuse……this is my suggestion."

  She laughed as she said this, unleashing what seemed to be endless teasing…… not only to Luo Nan but to herself as well. Her slender neck stretched forward once more, and her medium-length hair fell to her cheeks, like a light curtain that became the only thing that sheltered her face.

  A sweet fragrance and the faint odor of alcohol drifted from between her hair and entered Luo Nan’s nose in the most direct manner. His mind buzzed in an instant, distorting his internal and external senses. He just remembered turning as well, his lips brushing against her smooth and slightly damp hair and touching the side of her delicate and smooth forehead. His lips stopped there, finding it difficult to continue yet not willing to move away.

  "You’re here, Nanster!"

  Xie Junping pushed open the door and entered in a rush, bringing in the bewildering lights of area A to shine upon the close pair sitting on the sofa.

  His feet slowed in an instant, and Hu Huaying bumped into his back from behind. Further behind them was Mo Han’s clear voice sounding out, "Hey, who are you guys?"

  Xue Lei, who was the furthest inside, turned his head. A jolt ran through his hand and some alcohol was poured into a cup of ice while some alcohol was spilled on the carpet.

  The luxury room became lively in an instant.
