Qi Heng’s smile ca to an abrupt halt.
At his side, Chen Fan’s eyes also widened.
The air seed to freeze for a few seconds.
Qi Heng looked at Shen Lingdie with disbelief, "Qi Refinent three... third level? Senior sister, you’re not kidding , are you?"
"No, I’m not."
Shen Lingdie was completely serious as she released a strand of spiritual power, and judging by its strength, it indeed t the standard of the third level of Qi Refinent.
Then she looked at Qi Heng with confusion, "Junior brother, shouldn’t this be the normal speed of cultivation? You’ve only just entered the entry-level, isn’t your talent a bit lacking?"
Qi Heng forced a smile that resembled constipation on his face, thinking, Is this speed of cultivation really normal?
Shen Lingdie patted his head, "Junior brother, don’t lose heart. As long as you work a bit harder, you still have a chance to catch up with your senior sister."
Qi Heng’s face turned green; with her rate of cultivation, it simply wasn’t sothing that hard work alone could compensate for.
Chen Fan walked over, examining Shen Lingdie closely and thought to himself, Could this lass actually be the reincarnation of so great being from Ancient Tis? This speed of cultivation is indeed a bit terrifying.
Know that he initially reached the first level of Qi Refinent because he had an affair with Su Qingyan, leveraging the mystical interaction between the Nine Yang Divine Body and the Mysterious Yin Sacred Body. Even so, he wasn’t as exaggerated as Shen Lingdie.
Of course, Shen Lingdie had already laid a very solid foundation by entering the Dao through painting, so her current surge in power after starting formal cultivation techniques was normal. Eventually, her progress was bound to slow down and beco normal.
As her master, he couldn’t appear too surprised; otherwise, he would lose authority in front of his disciple. He simply nodded and said, "Hmm, you’ve done well, you’re a good seedling."
Then he looked at Qi Heng and comforted him, "Don’t be discouraged by this. Your talent is one in a million; it’s just that your senior sister is out of the ordinary, so there’s no need for you to compare yourself with her."
Qi Heng gave a bitter smile and nodded, thinking, If I ever get bored enough to compare myself with senior sister again, I’ll write my na backward!
At that mont, Shen Lingdie noticed the concert tickets in Qi Heng’s hand and asked, "What are these?"
Qi Heng replied, "Tickets to a concert."
Chen Fan smiled, "Since you’ve got the tickets, let’s go and enjoy the concert."
Qi Heng grimaced and said, "Master, you and senior sister go ahead. I feel I need to seize the ti to cultivate. Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll never catch up to senior sister in this lifeti."
Shen Lingdie’s eyes shone brightly as she patted Qi Heng’s head, "That’s very sensible of you."
Chen Fan felt helpless, sensing that Shen Lingdie might beco the nightmare Qi Heng could never shake off for the rest of his life.
As evening approached.
Chen Fan arrived at the stadium with Shen Lingdie.
The area outside the stadium was crowded with people. Many were queuing up to have their tickets checked, while so who hadn’t managed to buy tickets had co hoping for a chance encounter with their favorite stars.
On the walls of the stadium were posters of the stars participating in this all-star concert, all of them the hottest singers or actors of the mont.
Chen Fan’s gaze fell upon one of the posters.
It showcased a celestial woman dressed in a sparkling golden gown, looking graceful and exquisite.
Beside the poster was her na: Liu Yunxi.
"Didn’t expect to see a familiar face here," Chen Fan muttered to himself.
Shen Lingdie followed Chen Fan’s gaze and suddenly said, "Your look is off. You two have sothing going on!"
Chen Fan rolled his eyes and replied, "Don’t talk nonsense; I just know her, that’s all."
"Oh," Shen Lingdie gave the poster a few glances, "She’s beautiful."
Chen Fan nodded in agreent; Liu Yunxi’s status as a leading lady naturally ant her beauty was beyond reproach.
"I need to pee," Shen Lingdie suddenly said.
Chen Fan turned his head with a mix of laughter and tears, thinking to himself, couldn’t this young lady use more civilized language, rather than sothing so down-to-earth?
He pointed to the public restroom in the distance and said, "The restroom is over there, you go. I’ll wait for you here."
Shen Lingdie nodded and walked toward the restroom.
On the other side, Qin Lan arrived at the front of the stadium alone.
After being fired by Jian Yunzhou because of Chen Fan last ti, her life had plumted to rock bottom again. The constant rollercoaster of her life left her utterly exhausted. She couldn’t understand why Chen Fan always popped up just when her life seed to be improving, destroying everything she had.
Her mood had been very low these past few days, as she hid in her rented room, sticking needles into a voodoo doll of Chen Fan.
It wasn’t until two days ago, when she learned that there would be a concert at the stadium, featuring her favorite, Liu Yunxi, that she spent her last savings on a ticket, hoping her idol could give her so strength.
She walked toward the ticket check, and that’s when a familiar figure appeared in her line of sight, making her freeze.
"Chen Fan? Why is it always him?" Qin Lan, looking at Chen Fan standing lonely in the distance and recalling her own experiences, felt a surge of bitter emotions.
However, another thought crossed her mind, wondering if her life wouldn’t have turned into such a ss if she hadn’t divorced Chen Fan.
After hesitating for a mont, she headed straight toward Chen Fan.
"Hey," Qin Lan called out.
Chen Fan turned around, and upon seeing Qin Lan, he too was taken aback.
With her lips slightly pursed, Qin Lan said, "Although in my eyes, you’re still that useless loser, if you’re willing to apologize for what you did to in the past, I might just lower myself to accompany you to the concert today."
Chen Fan scoffed, "Sorry, I don’t need your company."
Qin Lan frowned, "Don’t be ungrateful, alright? The Su Family’s young lady doesn’t want you anymore, and there definitely won’t be any other won who would look your way, right? Aren’t you here at the concert just to try your luck with other won?"
"Let tell you the truth, with your loser look, no other woman will be into you. I’m only considering this because we were once husband and wife. Don’t push away the face-saving opportunity I’m giving you."
Speechless, Chen Fan looked at Qin Lan and said, "Your self-righteousness is truly laughable."
Qin Lan’s eyes widened, "I’m self-righteous? What are you pretending for? Is what I said not true? Let tell you, apart from , no one else will take a second glance at you. You better appreciate the chance I’m graciously offering you!"
Before she had finished speaking, Shen Lingdie ran over and grabbed Chen Fan’s arm, eyeing Qin Lan warily and said, "Bad woman, don’t you dare steal my man!"
Qin Lan was montarily stunned, taking in Shen Lingdie’s beautiful face and recalling that this person seed to be Su Qingyan’s close friend.
People nearby shouted, "Look! It’s the Shen Family’s young lady! Who is that man? He’s actually being held by the Shen Family’s young lady. My goodness, how lucky is he!"
"The Shen Family’s young lady..." Qin Lan was incredibly shocked. Having spent ti in Gang City, she had naturally heard of the influence of the Shen Family.
Seeing the closeness between Shen Lingdie and Chen Fan, a strong wave of jealousy churned within her.
Before she could recover from her astonishnt, a group of bodyguards surrounded an elegantly postured woman walking towards them.
The crowd around them began to get excited.
"Look, it’s Liu Yunxi!"
At the ntion, Qin Lan quickly turned to look, then cald her emotions and muttered to herself, "I’m here to see my idol Liu Yunxi today. There’s no need to get angry over this loser. Right, seeing my idol is what’s important, I shouldn’t waste ti on this guy."
Thinking this, she was ready to join the crowd in expressing her admiration for Liu Yunxi.
Liu Yunxi, however, had noticed Chen Fan and her eyes lit up with excitent. She then walked over to Chen Fan and called out warmly, "Chen Fan!"
