The sudden move even made Liu Yi unable to react for a while.
The unique fragrance on Ouyang Yi's clothes made Liu Yi's body tremble slightly, then her eyebrows tightened, and she immediately pushed Ouyang Yi away. The force was so great that it even made Ouyang Yi take a few steps back quickly!
Ouyang Yi was obviously stunned. In fact, he hugged Liu Yi with a gambling mentality. He knew that she might push him away, and he also knew that she might hate him more, but it was also possible that the relationship between the two would change and go further. What really made him stunned was, how could Liu Yi push him so far?
Although he didn't use any strength, with Liu Yi's strength, she could at most break free from his arm. How could she not even stand steadily?
Then, Ouyang Yi saw Liu Yi take off the necklace around her neck, erase the Divine Sense inside, and throw it directly to Ouyang Yi. Ouyang Yi subconsciously raised his hand to catch it, and then he heard Liu Yi's cold voice.
"If that's the case, I won't accept your gift." Liu Yi's eyes were like frost, and her words separated the two of them by thousands of miles, and she said, "If you still act so recklessly in the future, don't even think about stepping into this place again!"
"…"
Ouyang Yi's body trembled when he heard the words, and his face became uncomfortable. He didn't expect that he had done so much for this woman, and in the end, even a hug would turn out like this. Looking at the necklace in his hand, his fists clenched tightly, and he suddenly looked up at Liu Yi, gritted his teeth and said, "I know, you don't have a husband at all, and the person you like is Lu An, right?"
Liu Yi's eyes narrowed, and she shouted, "What does it have to do with you?"
"Nothing." Ouyang Yi resisted the unwillingness in his heart, gritted his teeth and said, "I just want to know how much he has done for you, so that I can know where I am lacking!"
"Feelings have nothing to do with giving." Liu Yi immediately said, "It's not that I will love you even if you give me more. These two things have never been connected."
"…"
Ouyang Yi smiled bitterly, and then burst out laughing. There was grievance and unwillingness in his laughter. Liu Yi watched from the side without any movement. After a long time, Ouyang Yi finally stopped, and his face became calm again.
"Sorry, I lost my composure just now." Ouyang Yi looked at Liu Yi, and his tone returned to normal as he said calmly, "I'm a bit curious. Your strength seems to be different from before. May I ask how strong you are now?"
"Level Seven Heavenly Master," Liu Yi said without hiding anything.
Ouyang Yi took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Looks like you've obtained a very good inheritance. Congratulations, this way I can be more at ease."
That's right, if Liu Yi was a Level Seven Celestial Master, only a Level Eight Celestial Master could easily kill her, and Level Eight Celestial Masters were all reputable figures in the Four Great Empires, so they wouldn't casually act.
After saying that, Ouyang Yi placed the necklace in his hand on the table beside him and said softly, "I will not take back what I have already given away. If you don't want to wear it, you can auction it off or throw it away."
With that, Ouyang Yi turned around and walked towards the door. Just as he was about to walk out, he stopped and turned to look at Liu Yi, at this beautiful woman.
"There's a banquet tomorrow night. All the influential people in the Black Emperor City will attend, including the royal family and the important positions of the empire. If you want to come, send someone to tell me and I'll come pick you up," Ouyang Yi said.
Then, he didn't look back and completely disappeared from Liu Yi's line of sight.
After Ouyang Yi left, Liu Yi was the only one left in the office. She took a light breath, stood for a while, and then turned to look at the necklace on the table. After thinking for a moment, she walked to the table and picked up the necklace.
She put on the necklace and hid the pendant in her clothes. No matter what, she needed to protect herself. This defensive tool was indeed very important to her.
As for the banquet tomorrow night … Liu Yi frowned. She needed to carefully consider whether or not she should go.

The next day, evening.
In the Alkaid Chamber of Commerce, Liu Yi and Liu Lan were in the same room. Liu Lan was helping Liu Yi tidy up her clothes. Liu Yi was wearing a luxurious light blue shawl dress, making Liu Yi look even more beautiful.
Liu Yi was very knowledgeable about what to wear on what occasion. After staying in the Montenegrin Empire for a period of time, she had also seen the style of dressing here. Liu Yi was also more proficient in dressing herself up.
The clothes she was wearing were actually not eye-catching in the luxurious clothes. At the very least, if one's gaze swept past, they would definitely not be attracted, nor would they become the focus of attention. However, if she stood alone in front of a person, when the other party's eyes were all on her, her beauty would completely blossom.
Her beauty required details, refinement, and the ability to absolutely retain other people's gazes. Liu Yi understood that with her status, she would not be able to attend such an important banquet. Therefore, her attire could not steal the limelight of the host. Otherwise, it would only annoy other people. And this outfit had achieved all the effects she wanted.
"Big sister is so beautiful." Liu Lan said with a smile.
Liu Yi smiled and said, "You have such a sweet mouth. Wait for big sister to come back and spoil you."
Liu Lan smiled happily. At this moment, a servant came to the door and said respectfully, "President, the third young master of the Shaoling Chamber of Commerce is here."
Liu Yi was startled when she heard this. She nodded and said, "Okay."
Then, Liu Yi got up and put on the last of her jewelry. She said to Liu Lan, "I'm going."
Liu Lan smiled and nodded, "Have fun."
Surrounded by the crowd, Liu Yi quickly arrived at the first floor and walked to the door. Today, the third young master did not walk, nor did he come in a carriage. There was a strange beast about 12 feet long on the street. Its body was emitting a red light, and it was very beautiful.
The third young master stood in front of the beast. When he saw Liu Yi appear, his eyes were completely attracted.
Beautiful.
Liu Yi, who had deliberately dressed up, was more beautiful than ever.
The third young master stood outside the door, watching Liu Yi walk towards him step by step. His eyes were all on Liu Yi, and he had completely forgotten what he was supposed to do.
Looking at the other party's expression, Liu Yi said softly, "Should we leave?"
"Ah!" Hearing Liu Yi's voice, Ouyang Yi came back to her senses and quickly said, "Okay, let's go!"
With that, Ouyang Yi jumped onto the back of the strange beast. He reached out and politely took Liu Yi's hand and walked up. When the two of them stood firmly on top, the strange beast let out a long cry, flapped its wings, and soared into the sky.
Black Emperor City was very big, but with the strange beast's speed, they could reach it very quickly. But this time, the strange beast's speed seemed to be very slow, allowing the two of them to spend more time alone under the night sky.
"You're so beautiful tonight." Ouyang Yi could not help but say.
"You mean, I wasn't beautiful before?" Liu Yi asked.
"Beautiful, but you're even more beautiful tonight." Ouyang Yi said with a smile, "You're so beautiful, I'm willing to do anything."
Hearing Ouyang Yi's words, Liu Yi frowned and said, "If you only like beauties, I can tell you. At least I know three people who are more beautiful than me. I'll introduce you to them, and then you won't bother me anymore."
"No." Ouyang Yi said directly, "There are thousands of ways to be beautiful, and yours is my favorite. I've thought about what kind of woman I want, and I've thought about it for a very long time, so I know what I want. When you appeared, you satisfied all my needs, and that's why I fell in love with you at first sight. "
Liu Yi frowned and did not continue to argue with Ouyang Yi on this topic. She said, "Let it go faster."
"…"
Seeing Liu Yi's evasive attitude, Ouyang Yi did not continue. Otherwise, it would only backfire. Following that, he said to the strange beast, "Full speed ahead."
The strange beast naturally understood and immediately rushed forward at full speed towards the banquet.
Soon, the two of them arrived at their destination. The destination was the courtyard of a prince. This prince was the younger brother of the Montenegrin Empire's Emperor, and the two of them had a very good relationship. Just yesterday, on the second day of the New Year, the Emperor had already hosted a banquet to entertain all the core figures of the Montenegrin Empire. As for the other relatives of the Emperor and important figures of various fields, they were all entertained by this prince.
When Ouyang Yi appeared, the surrounding people immediately looked over and said, "Third Young Master!"
