Chen Shuo didn't hear a single word of this class!
He kept thinking, unable to figure out why the Demon King had come looking for him and what he wanted.
The only thing he could be sure of was that the Demon King didn't seem to have any intention of harming Chen Shuo, at least for now.
If the Demon King had wanted to make a move, he could have done so earlier in the underground parking lot of the Demon Hunter headquarters. At that time, Chen Shuo had found the System's virtual panel annoying and deliberately hidden it. Engrossed in the game, he hadn't even noticed that the person knocking on the window was the Demon King, who made all Demon Hunters tremble in fear.
If the Demon King had wanted to act then, he could have ended Chen Shuo's life in a matter of seconds.
However, the Demon King didn't make a move against Chen Shuo. Was it because of the collective arrival of the Demon Hunters that he temporarily spared Chen Shuo?
Chen Shuo boldly guessed that the Demon King might not be entirely sure of his identity yet.
If the Demon King had known that he was the Demon Saint, he certainly wouldn't have been so tentative.
For the entire class, Chen Shuo was lost in these thoughts, not even noticing what the teacher was saying.
Finally, the class ended.
Chen Shuo instructed Lu Chen: "If that person comes looking for me again, please give him my phone number."
Lu Chen nodded without asking why.
Lu Chen felt that the Chen Shuo before him now seemed to be hiding a big secret.
He radiated a mysterious aura that made people want to look up to him and even worship him.
Perhaps this was the power of personal charisma?
Lu Chen didn't think too deeply about it. No matter what kind of person Chen Shuo was, he was his good buddy!
Whatever Chen Shuo asked him to do, Lu Chen wouldn't question it, he'd just do as he was told.
In this world, it seemed only the cold and beautiful campus belle Su Xiyan could make Lu Chen switch allegiances. But then again, that was also for Chen Shuo's own good!
As the surrounding classmates gradually left the lecture hall, Chen Shuo took his phone out of the drawer and slipped it into his pocket.
Walking out of the teaching building, Chen Shuo sensed someone running towards him.
Looking closely, it was actually Su Xiyan?
It had only been one class period since they'd last seen each other, but Su Xiyan acted as if she hadn't seen Chen Shuo for ages.
Seeing Chen Shuo walk out of the building, her clear eyes sparkled with excitement. She ran towards him like a little kitten, throwing herself into his familiar embrace.
Su Xiyan was always the center of attention wherever she went.
It was just after class, and many students were coming out of the building. The place was crowded, with people coming and going, jostling each other.
Su Xiyan seemed completely oblivious to the gazes around her, only wanting to hold Chen Shuo tightly.
Chen Shuo was stunned by Su Xiyan's sudden embrace, unable to react for a moment. His hand holding the schoolbag remained suspended in mid-air, not knowing what to do.
What was wrong with Su Xiyan?
Chen Shuo: "Are you... okay?"
Su Xiyan was still hugging Chen Shuo, not expecting him to ask such a question.
Furious, she punched Chen Shuo hard in the chest.
"Chen Shuo! Do you know how worried I was about you?"
"Why couldn't I reach you on your phone?"
"During this special period, how could you turn off your phone and go missing?"
Only then did Chen Shuo remember that during class, he hadn't replied to Su Xiyan's message or even said hello to her before turning off his phone at the teacher's strict request.
After class, he had just put his phone away without thinking to turn it back on.
He hadn't expected Su Xiyan to be so worried about him!
It was understandable though. In Su Xiyan's mind, Chen Shuo was a Demon King, but still an inexperienced one who couldn't compare to the cunning and experienced Demon King Xiao Mingchen.
Moreover, Su Xiyan didn't know that Chen Shuo had the System to rely on.
Understanding this, Chen Shuo disregarded the gazes of the surrounding classmates. He held his schoolbag in one hand and wrapped the other around Su Xiyan's slender waist, whispering comforting words in her ear:
"See? I'm fine."
"It's okay, don't worry about me. I can take care of myself."
"Are you hungry? Didn't your dad invite us for a meal? If we go now, the timing would be perfect."
Su Xiyan didn't know why she had lost her composure like this. Under the gaze of so many classmates, she had completely abandoned her usual cold and proud demeanor as the campus belle, focusing solely on Chen Shuo's safety.
Was the aloof campus belle's tsundere persona about to completely collapse?
Now that she had confirmed Chen Shuo was safe and sound, Su Xiyan's inner pride resurfaced.
She pushed Chen Shuo away abruptly: "From now on, no matter what, you're not allowed to ignore my calls or not reply to my messages."
"And absolutely no going off the grid!"
"Did you hear me?"
Her tone was icy, carrying the commanding air typical of a mature woman.
Chen Shuo: "..."
A woman's face changes faster than the weather in June!
If he didn't know Su Xiyan well, Chen Shuo would have thought he was dealing with someone with multiple personalities!
Seeing Chen Shuo not agreeing, Su Xiyan's delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she put her hands on her hips: "Chen Shuo? Did you hear what I said?"
Her voice was cold, reverting to her usual aloof demeanor.
Chen Shuo didn't want to continue being the center of attention and just wanted to appease Su Xiyan quickly.
So he nodded repeatedly: "I heard you, I heard you!"
After saying this, Chen Shuo grabbed Su Xiyan's hand and quickly left the troublesome spot.
Behind them, their classmates watched Su Xiyan and Chen Shuo's retreating figures, seemingly accustomed to the campus belle's changed state since falling in love.
However, Su Xiyan's contrasting behavior still made it hard for people to believe that this girl immersed in love was the same unapproachable goddess from before.
Many male students cast envious glances at Chen Shuo's back.
To be worried about by the great campus belle Su Xiyan, what an honor that must be!
Even if she later commanded him in that cold tone, the male students felt it would be worth it!
They were even internally shouting: Campus Belle Su! (*❦ω❦) Please command me! Please order me with your cold, mature voice!
Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan walked briskly and soon arrived at the parking lot.
After getting in the car, Chen Shuo's phone rang.
It was a restaurant location sent by Su Yuanying.
This restaurant was a well-established old place in Su City. It had elegant decor and displayed many antiques. The taste was authentically local Su City cuisine, much loved by locals. The accumulated charm wasn't something that ordinary trendy restaurants could compare to.
While driving, Chen Shuo couldn't help but praise: "Your dad has quite good taste!"
Su Xiyan looked puzzled: "What? How do you know my dad has good taste?"
"Also, where are we going for lunch?"
Chen Shuo replied: "Your dad has already sent me the restaurant location."
Su Xiyan protested: "... When we see my dad later, I'm going to ask him who's really his child, you or me?"

saw a female celebrity tied up and stuffed in the trunk! Little did he know, countless cameras were aimed at him at this moment - this was a new type of reality show. The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes. This Xu Moru is too bold, he's not following the rules at all." "Crap, is this guy taking it seriously?" "The female celebrity has been scared to tears!"

While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
