At this moment.
Liu Xinxin turned all her previous jealousy towards Xia Wanying into vicious words.
Everyone was experiencing life as a human and going to university for the first time.
Why could Xia Wanying, a girl from such an impoverished background, become the faith in countless men's hearts?
While she, Liu Xinxin, was ignored by everyone?
Tonight, she would let everyone know.
Other than Xiang TianGe, no other girl in the school could compete with her!
Soon.
Liu Xinxin walked onto the stage.
The moment the spotlight shone on her, the image of her on the big screen was like bathing in a sky full of stars, causing the audience to cheer loudly.
In a certain seat.
Chen Yan's face carried a smile, and her eyes were also full of envy.
When had she ever dreamed of this moment, but after her father came home and said the auction had failed, all this...became a mirage, a flower in the mirror.
"Enjoy tonight's glory with my dream," Chen Yan sighed to herself.
On stage, the prelude sounded.
The camera panned across the stage, displayed on the big screen.
When Liu Xinxin's hands were zoomed in, the audience's attention was all drawn to the bracelet.
Was this the Ocean Heart worth 30 million?
It may not be the most expensive, but it was undoubtedly one of the accessories that made groups of girls' hearts throb.
Sensing the audience's envious atmosphere, Liu Xinxin felt that this was perhaps the most dazzling moment in her life so far.
As the prelude ended, Liu Xinxin closed her eyes and prepared to sing passionately.
But at that moment!
In the audience below, Kager's old face was almost wrinkled into a ball.
He had overcome jet lag and flown specially to Long Kingdom just to witness the debut of this work on stage.
But what was this?
Calling it a high imitation would be overestimating the value of that crappy chain.
Apart from being polished to shine, many details were completely different from the original.
Damn it!
Kager was an artist with an almost nitpicking strict attitude towards such things. Seeing a fake being chased after by tens of thousands now, he immediately lost his temper.
He abruptly strode forward and rushed onto the stage!
In an instant.
The audience below was stunned.
Just as Liu Xinxin was about to start singing the first line, she saw Kager coming aggressively and was completely confused.
"Hand it over!"
Kager snatched the microphone from Liu Xinxin's hand and scolded loudly on stage: "How is this my work Ocean Heart? Are you all blind? You're showcasing this fake product as the real thing, this is the greatest insult to my masterpiece!!"
"......"
The live accompaniment stopped abruptly.
The audience was stunned speechless.
And Liu Xinxin's eyes widened even more, her complexion instantly turned as pale as paper, and her lips trembled uncontrollably!
Whoosh—
After a brief silence, a commotion sounded from every corner below.
Various sighs, doubts, and even curses rose from all directions.
The roar was so great it seemed to engulf the heavens!
"No, impossible, how could this be fake? I don't believe it!" Liu Xinxin grabbed the microphone and screamed without regard for face.
Kager found another microphone and said coldly, "I'm the designer of Ocean Heart. There are seven or eight different details between your bracelet and the real one. I overcame jet lag for a day without sleep for this fake... How could there be a student like you who would fake it and be so shameless!"
Seeing Kager jumping up and down like this, everyone no longer had any doubts.
Kager was the designer of Ocean Heart, his words were authoritative!
"Get off the stage!"
"What new goddess, new scheming bitch!"
"Don't you have any shame? If Mr. Kager wasn't here, everyone would be worshipping this slut from now on."
"Idiot, get off the stage!"
Countless people began to erupt.
They felt deceived, felt played.
If they didn't have banana peels in their hands, they would pelt her for at least ten minutes just to calm their anger!
Thud.
Liu Xinxin slumped to the ground.
The camera exposed everything to the big screen.
Her makeup was ruined from crying, and snot was flowing out. She looked like a deranged lunatic who had lost her mind.
Why...
She had just experienced being the center of attention, not even a day had passed, and it had become like this.
She even felt a sense of kinship with Cheng Tao who was about to be tried, both fallen beings.
Liu Xinxin's mind collapsed completely...
Even after Liu Xinxin was taken off the stage, the curses and condemnation from the audience below did not stop.
Hearing these voices, Chen Yan's expression was also not very good.
She certainly knew that Liu Xinxin had been tricked by the scumbag Fan Xihua and was pitted terribly.
At the same time, she couldn't help but think that if she had insisted on singing a duet on stage, she would probably also be affected now and lose face in public from then on...
A full ten minutes later.
The on-stage accident finally settled down and the audience quieted below.
Qin Xuan, Xia Wanying, Lin Han, Liu Xiao Li... a total of seven people slowly walked onto the stage.
With Qin Xuan playing the piano, Xia Wanying and the others dancing, it was a performance.
Abruptly.
Liu Xinxin, who had just been taken backstage, unexpectedly returned, grabbed the microphone, and screamed like a madwoman: "Xia Wanying is also wearing a fake Ocean Heart!"
Various waves of sound were triggered below the stage again.
This Liu Xinxin was clearly stimulated and didn't want to be humiliated alone. She was determined to pull Xia Wanying down with her.
If Xia Wanying was also told to get off stage, Liu Xinxin would feel a little more balanced.
Almost at the same time that Liu Xinxin shouted, the camera zoomed in on Xia Wanying's hands.
A exquisite bracelet appeared on the big screen.
Xia Wanying wearing a fake bracelet on campus during the day had already spread throughout the school.
What people didn't expect...
Was that under such circumstances, Xia Wanying still dared to wear it on stage to perform.
At this moment Xia Wanying felt uneasy. She could almost imagine that in the next second, negative voices would sound from below, especially Kager, he would definitely explode in anger again.
It was as she imagined.
Kager really went on stage again.
Xia Wanying's face suddenly turned a little pale, she was so nervous that she didn't know what to do with her hands.
But at this moment, she still hadn't taken off the bracelet, she didn't have the intention to avoid people's gaze.
This was given by Qin Xuan!
Unless Qin Xuan told her to take it off, no matter what others said, she wouldn't waver at all!
As Kager went on stage again, most people inexplicably held their breath, not knowing what to expect.
Liu Xinxin clutched her skirt tightly with both hands, looking forward to Xia Wanying being humiliated like herself!
But the result ultimately disappointed her.
Kager just looked at Xia Wanying's wrist for a good while with a smile on his face before picking up the microphone and saying something shocking: "This is the work I personally designed. It really matches this student very well. Fortunately I didn't make this trip in vain. Sorry everyone, I've delayed your time. Let's properly appreciate this student and Ocean Heart's dazzling brilliance on stage!"
"!!!"
Amidst the terrifying roar from below, Liu Xinxin collapsed again.
How was this possible?
Xia Wanying's bracelet was clearly also an imitation. How did it suddenly become real!
But someone like Kager would not talk nonsense in public. Even if they didn't want to believe it, they had to.
Thinking of her previous mockery towards Xia Wanying, Liu Xinxin couldn't stop blushing from shame, crying messily.
Then, under the audience's "Get off the stage" shouts once again, Liu Xinxin ran off the stage crying.
Tonight's experience would surely leave an indelible shadow in her life.
From now on when she walked around campus, she would be pointed and talked about, never able to hold her head high again!
In the audience.
It was as if everyone had gone crazy.
"Xia goddess!"
"Xia goddess!"
"Xia goddess!"
It was even more terrifying than fans cheering for a pop star concert. They shouted Xia goddess continuously for a full five minutes!
During those few minutes, Xia Wanying's mind went completely blank.
She just felt her throat go dry as if it was about to catch fire.
She slowly turned her head to look at Qin Xuan. In those always gentle eyes was a thick astonishment...
Qin Xuan grinned and said in a low voice, "I said you'd be the most dazzling one tonight."
Xia Wanying suddenly blushed, and for the first time gave Qin Xuan a reproachful look.
She blamed him for being willful.
Giving away a 30 million yuan item so casually, and even falsely claiming it was a high quality replica...
At the same time, she also felt deeply shocked and stirred emotionally.
Before the show was about to begin,
the host, in order to create an effect for the show, suddenly asked Xia Wanying publicly: "Miss Xia, this genuine Ocean Heart necklace must have been a gift from a member of the opposite sex, right?"
The scene was instantly filled with a gossipy atmosphere.
It was well known that Xia Wanying came from an impoverished family and worked hard to support herself through school.
Jewelry of this level must have been gifted by someone else.
Countless boys who were infatuated with Xia Wanying already had a bad premonition...she couldn't have been taken up by some big boss, right?
Everyone had great interest in the man behind Xia Wanying, and some girls had even started to tease her!
Xia Wanying was caught in a dilemma, and could only take the microphone in the end.
She pursed her lips, her eyes wandering a bit.
But this time she was not as timid as usual. Her soft voice gradually spread out: "Yes, it was given to me by a boy. I haven't known him for long, you could even say it was a very short time.
But...I think, because of those experiences we went through together, no matter where we each end up in the future, whatever identities we have, I will use my whole lifetime, use everything in my power, to repay him..."
Speaking to here, Xia Wanying's eyes were already wet.
Recalling being threatened by Li ZeYang, and being fished out of the water by Qin Xuan, she couldn't help but shed tears on the spot.
Although she was not usually good with words, she was still a sensitive girl at heart.
At this moment the audience below was exceptionally quiet.
It seemed many people were also moved emotionally.
But more than that, they seemed to sense that Xia Wanying's heart now belonged to someone, and they all heard the sound of broken hearts...
"Who is that boy?" the host asked with an evil grin.
Xia Wanying shook her head, refusing to say anything more.
Helpless, the host could only give up pursuing the question, and silently walked to the side.
The show was about to start.
Xia Wanying and Wu Han stood in position at the center of the stage, while Qin Xuan walked to the side and sat down in front of the piano.
Qin Xuan tonight was wearing a black tuxedo and a black top hat,
looking exactly the same as when he had played the piano at that high-end restaurant.
Qin Xuan instantly had an air about him. His handsome hands lightly caressed the piano keys.
Then,
the black and white keys jumped.
Elegant music sounded the moment his fingers touched the piano.
Below the stage, in a certain spot, a teenage girl's eyes suddenly widened. Her body stood up uncontrollably.
Like the Yangtze River flowing backward.
Like a mountain collapsing into the sea.
The girl had an unbelievable expression on her face, and a stormy sea churned up in her heart!!

No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.

Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
