"I hope I haven't caused you any trouble? After this period, I'll take you out for a walk and show you around as a local host should."

Yang Yan said with a smile.

Hearing Yang Yan say he would take her out, Christina's eyes immediately lit up.

She hurriedly said:

"It's a deal! You can't deceive me, absolutely not."

Yang Yan chuckled:

"When have I ever deceived you? Once busy times are over, I'll definitely take you out for a good tour. By the way, where's your old man? Does he feel assured letting you come here alone?"

As the most outstanding bloodline inheritor of her clan, that old wolf always hoped Christina would marry an excellent man from the clan.

That way, the perfect bloodline could be well passed on, possibly birthing top-tier Wolf Race Warriors.

However, Christina fell for Yang Yan instead.

No matter what he said, Christina wouldn't listen at all.

The old wolf even considered killing Yang Yan to end it once and for all.

But just when they were planning to take action, Yang Yan unexpectedly left.

Not long after, news came that Yang Yan had received the Moonlight title.

Upon hearing this, even if given a hundred guts, they wouldn't dare lay a finger on Yang Yan.

Knowing that within their clan, only a decrepit old fellow held a title.

Now seeing that Christina still had hope, yet this happened.

"Grandpa was invited by the Sword Immortal of Huaxia as a guest, so he won't be back anytime soon. Besides, Huaxia has always been very safe with few Hidden World people, and whenever you do see one, they are well-behaved as if they were ordinary people."

Christina explained.

Just when Yang Yan was about to ask if Christina had brought the Dragon-Seeking Jade, a magnetic voice of the host sounded outside the door.

"Let's go! The opening ceremony is about to start; let's go have a look."

Christina said with a smile.

Yang Yan had no choice but to nod and then turned to open the door.

But as the two walked out of the room, the eyes of the people and bodyguards outside widened in shock.

These bodyguards were well-trained, with even a few being elites of the Wolf Race, yet even they had no idea when Yang Yan went in.

As for others, they were curious why Yang Yan emerged from Christina's room.

Yang Yan didn't care about others' gazes; he held Christina's hand and walked out as if no one else was around.

After they walked a distance away, those inside instinctively rubbed their eyes, as if to confirm they weren't seeing things.

Once they confirmed it was indeed Yang Yan and Christina who had walked out, everyone exchanged glances, whispering among themselves.

"You're here, I was just about to send someone to fetch you! Come quickly, this way, it's about to start."

Zhou Hanyun glanced at the hand-in-hand pair, momentarily paused, then spoke nonchalantly.

"Haha... alright, alright."

Yang Yan realized something was amiss, instantly snapped to attention, and reflexively released Christina's hand.

After taking their seats, Yang Yan glanced at the guests, recognizing many faces but not names.

The familiarity came from once meeting them at a charity auction or at Master Zhou's birthday banquet.

However, Yang Yan spotted a familiar face.

Strange, why would that guy be here?

Gazing at the familiar face, Yang Yan wondered internally.

"What's wrong?"

Christina had been observing Yang Yan's reactions, saw who he was staring at, and softly asked.

"Nothing, just spotted an acquaintance, pondering whether to say hello."

Yang Yan responded with a smile.

Christina nodded, turning her gaze back to the podium.

"Honored guests, thank you all for taking the time to attend the opening ceremony of Zhou's Jewelry. On this carefully selected day, Zhou's Jewelry is about to open..."

With the host's greetings, the opening ceremony officially commenced.

A jewelry store opening of this scale naturally included performances and celebrity appearances.

People outside eagerly anticipated which celebrity might appear today, but after waiting a long time, no celebrity showed up.

Just as enthusiasm waned and they prepared to leave, a heavenly voice suddenly resonated.

A burst of white mist enveloped the stage, and a woman in ancient attire appeared like magic, dancing gracefully.

As the woman's graceful figure emerged on stage, the audience erupted.

Some sharp-eyed individuals recognized her immediately, unleashing deafening screams.

Yang Yan was also astonished to see the woman on stage.

"What's wrong? Are you a fan of hers too?"

Christina asked Yang Yan with curiosity.

"No, but I'm surprised, why is she here?"

Yang Yan said with a wry smile.

The woman on stage was none other than Mu Qingcheng.

But the crowd chanted her stage name — Flower Cyan Porcelain.

"Yeah! Her appearance startled me too. I remember she never attends such commercial events. It seems Hanyun's connections are extensive, managing to invite an internationally renowned superstar like Flower Cyan Porcelain."

Christina said with a smile.

Yang Yan cast a doubtful glance at her and couldn't help asking:

"You know her too?"

"Of course! I'm one of her fans! I have a necklace named after her. When the necklace was launched, I wanted to invite her as the spokesperson."

"Unfortunately, she doesn't accept any commercial performances, so despite our efforts, we couldn't get her for the endorsement."

Christina said with some regret.

"In that case, I'll talk to her on your behalf when we return."

Yang Yan said with a bitter smile.

"What, you know her?"

Christina asked Yang Yan in surprise, then glanced at Mu Qingcheng, contemplatively and softly said:

"Her aura is truly something else, how should I put it, too aloof. She always gives off that angelic vibe, making her hard to approach. Yet you want to get closer to her..."

"I originally suspected she was from the Hidden World, now it seems she's likely so, and her identity isn't simple."

Yang Yan suddenly laughed:

"You're not wrong; she is indeed from the Hidden World."

"Judging by your tone, you're quite familiar with her?"

Christina asked doubtfully.

"Familiar? More than familiar! She's one of my Ten Swords; you tell me, is that familiar?"

Yang Yan burst out laughing.

Christina was directly stunned.
