At the very least, here, they don't need to worry about being approached by others for the time being, and with the somewhat special identities of the two, before figuring out their relationship, it is estimated that no one will act rashly.

However, if the time drags on, it's hard to say; they can't stay in the corner forever.

"Yanran doesn't like this kind of environment, so she just showed her face and went back." Hearing Lu Li mention Liu Yanran, Shangguan Wan'er spread her hands helplessly, her small teeth grinding.

Although this was one of the reasons, Shangguan Wan'er felt that the girl must have done this on purpose because she was eliminated by herself in the youth training competition.

After all, if she really didn't like this kind of environment, she could just not come, and no one would say anything; there was no rigid requirement to attend the banquet. Just like Su Xueyi, this ice beauty didn't show up at all.

Therefore, for her best friend's "revengeful" move, Shangguan Wan'er expressed strong condemnation, but she couldn't tie the opponent back.

"Ah, this!" Lu Li didn't know that Shangguan Wan'er's inner drama was so rich, but after hearing the opponent's explanation, he felt that Liu Yanran's wave of operation seemed quite feasible, and he could refer to it. Anyway, he was just a guest, not a host.

As for Shangguan Wan'er, there was no way; who let this be the Cangdu General Association, and she was the host here?

While thinking, Lu Li saw that Shangguan Wan'er had already turned slightly to block his path of departure, and a pair of beautiful eyes were looking at him vigilantly. It seemed that if he wanted to run away in the next second, Shangguan Wan'er would catch him immediately.

"I said, is it necessary for you to be like this?" This scene made Lu Li not know whether to laugh or cry; this girl doesn't look as quiet as the surface, and she has a lot of drama.

"That's hard to say." Wrinkling her small nose, Shangguan Wan'er gave Lu Li a big white eye; if she were Lu Li, she would definitely run away immediately.

"But it seems that we should also change the venue." As he said, Lu Li's gaze looked not far away.

During the conversation between the two, many people at the banquet also came back to their senses. Since Shangguan Wan'er and Lu Li were together, it would be better to catch them all in one net. Thinking of this, some people had already acted, holding wine glasses and walking towards the corner where the two were.

"Ah, this!" Seeing this, Shangguan Wan'er was also speechless, but soon, she felt that she was pulled by Lu Li.

"Let's go, I know a place where we can get rid of these people's entanglement." During the words, Lu Li had already brought Shangguan Wan'er to the center of the banquet.

"Is this the place you said to get rid of others? But why do I feel a bit at a loss?" Looking at Lu Li close at hand, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but pout.

However, her movements followed the opponent closely, drawing a beautiful dance step.

The center of the banquet was a large dance floor. Lu Li directly brought Shangguan Wan'er into the dance floor. This was indeed as the opponent said. Others stopped helplessly after seeing them step into the dance floor, but Shangguan Wan'er had a feeling that she had been dragged in.

"Then how about I change to someone else?" Facing Shangguan Wan'er's unique pouting, Lu Li joked.

For Lu Li, it actually didn't matter if he changed to someone else; anyway, dealing with one person was much better than dealing with a bunch of people. Compared to being passive, Lu Li felt it was better to take the initiative.

However, it was only in this situation that Lu Li discovered that Shangguan Wan'er's figure was definitely fuller than imagined, almost catching up with Black Magician Girl.

Moreover, Shangguan Wan'er still had a lot of room for promotion; in the end, compared to Black Magician Girl, who was better, it was really hard to say.

However, Black Magician Girl took the pure and cute style, while Shangguan Wan'er took the intellectual route, and both had their own characteristics.

"Don't even think about it!" Shangguan Wan'er wrinkled her small nose; was she being disliked? Immediately, she looked at Lu Li suspiciously: "Were you thinking about something bad just now?"

93. Good job, Old Yu!

Are you a puppy?

Lu Li muttered in his heart, but on the surface, he was indifferent: "I am a normal man; if I don't have any thoughts in my heart now, that would be a big problem."

"Then you are really honest." Hearing Lu Li's reply, Shangguan Wan'er was stunned and almost couldn't keep up with the opponent's pace, but fortunately, she was pulled by Lu Li in time, so she didn't make a fool of herself: "Well, I found that you are quite charming, and I am becoming more and more interested in you now."

After speaking, Shangguan Wan'er turned around in cooperation with Lu Li, her skirt flying, like an elegant elf, and the combination of the two became the focus of the entire banquet again.

"There seem to be quite a few girls interested in me." Lu Li teased, of course, the girls he was talking about were a bit different from Shangguan Wan'er; at least Shangguan Wan'er wouldn't have an expression like she wanted to "eat" herself like the others.

It was a pity that this was met with another white eye from Shangguan Wan'er.

"Speaking of which, how long do we have to dance?" Relying on Lu Li to complete a gorgeous turn again, Shangguan Wan'er felt that her calves were a bit cramped.

After a song, Lu Li and Shangguan Wan'er didn't leave the dance floor immediately, but danced again, and the tacit understanding between the two deepened a lot, and the cooperation became more natural.

But dancing like this all the time is not a way.

"That depends on when those people leave." Hearing Shangguan Wan'er's question, Lu Li couldn't help but glance at the crowd not far away who were still staring at them at the edge of the dance floor.

It was precisely because of these people that Lu Li and Shangguan Wan'er didn't leave the dance floor immediately.

"I felt for the first time that attending this kind of banquet is not very good." Seeing this, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but puff her small mouth, combined with that fleshy little round face, Lu Li almost couldn't help but want to pinch it.

But in the end, he held back: "I thought you were already used to it."

"It's not that I'm not used to it, it's just the first time I've avoided people in this way." Shangguan Wan'er explained: "But speaking of which, it's really the first time I've danced with a boy."

"Then it's really my honor." Lu Li replied angrily, causing Shangguan Wan'er to steal a laugh.

In the distance, everyone who saw this scene couldn't help whispering.

"I originally thought Shangguan Wan'er and Lu Li were just staying together to avoid us, but now it seems that's not the case?"

"These two, could it be that they really have something going on?"

While everyone was thinking, Yu Haojia ran out from some corner and shouted to Lu Li on the dance floor: "Lu Li, are you here? Come with me, President Shangguan wants to see you."

However, after seeing Shangguan Wan'er beside the opponent, Yu Haojia was also stunned: "Wan'er girl, are you here too? Just right, your grandfather is also looking for you."

It was just that, looking at the slightly intimate Lu Li and Shangguan Wan'er on the dance floor, Yu Haojia was also a bit puzzled; when did these two get together?

However, Yu Haojia didn't say much, and if Lu Li really wanted to get Shangguan Wan'er, it seemed to be a good thing. With Shangguan Hong as a big backer, it was a step to the sky.

Good job, Old Yu!

Although he didn't know why Shangguan Hong was looking for him, Lu Li and Shangguan Wan'er looked at each other and understood each other's meaning.

With a beautiful turn, Lu Li took Shangguan Wan'er and left the dance floor: "President, let's go now."

As the voice fell, Lu Li had already hugged Shangguan Wan'er and walked quickly towards the door, leaving Yu Haojia in a daze; what's the situation? Why do these two look more anxious than me?

Although puzzled, Yu Haojia still sent a message to Shangguan Pu, and then left the banquet, leaving a crowd of onlookers who were intercepted but tearful.

Even if they had twelve guts, they wouldn't dare to say anything about Yu Haojia, not to mention that the one who was looking for Lu Li and the two was Shangguan Hong, the president of the Cangdu General Association.

"Uncle Yu," on the way, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but ask: "Do you know why Grandpa is looking for me and Lu Li?"

After leaving the banquet hall, Lu Li and Shangguan Wan'er separated tacitly, but after the dance floor incident, the relationship between the two was pulled closer.

"No," Yu Haojia shook his head: "In fact, it wasn't your grandfather who came to me, but your father; it was he who mentioned to me that President Shangguan had something to look for you."

"Is it Father who passed the message?" Shangguan Wan'er frowned; she couldn't think of why Shangguan Hong was looking for them.

As for Lu Li, he was even more unclear.

"Don't worry, Wan'er," receiving Yu Haojia's message, Shangguan Pu also rushed to meet with them, and just happened to hear their conversation, so he said: "This time, for you, it might be a good opportunity."

Compared to Yu Haojia, Shangguan Pu obviously knew more inside information, but he only said this much without too much detailed explanation.

This time, even Yu Haojia couldn't help but frown; obviously, he couldn't figure out what the opportunity in Shangguan Pu's mouth was.

Seeing this, Shangguan Wan'er was even more puzzled, but she didn't continue to ask; anyway, after seeing Shangguan Hong in a while, everything would come to light.

Under the leadership of Shangguan Pu, Lu Li and others turned around in the Cangdu General Association and soon arrived at Shangguan Hong's office.

Although they met many people during the period, everyone couldn't help but be curious when seeing the combination of these people, but unfortunately, Lu Li and others didn't pay much attention.

"You're here," watching Shangguan Pu push the door in, Shangguan Hong nodded slightly: "Sit down, you are the only ones left."

Hearing Shangguan Hong's words, Lu Li couldn't help but raise his eyebrows; it seems that the opponent is not only looking for them this time, but I don't know who else is there.

The next moment, the situation in the office appeared in front of everyone.

Not only Shangguan Hong, but Liu Yanran, who Shangguan Wan'er said had left, Su Xueyi, who had not appeared in the banquet, and Yue Di, who had also been defeated by Lu Li, were also in the office.

Besides that, Song Yongzhang, the branch president of the Cangyue City Magic Card Association, and Mo Yingtian, the branch president of the Cangheng City Magic Card Association, were also here, and these people were obviously one step ahead of them.

Yu Haojia looked at Song Yongzhang and Mo Yingtian, but only got the two shaking their heads; obviously, Shangguan Hong did not reveal more news to them.

Looking at each other, Lu Li and Shangguan Wan'er were even more curious about why Shangguan Hong gathered so many people.

"Since everyone is here, I won't waste your time." After Lu Li and others sat down, Shangguan Hong scanned everyone present and said slowly: "You should be very strange why I asked you to come over now."

"A year and a half ago, during an extraterritorial exploration operation of the three capitals of the Eastern Region, we accidentally discovered a dimensional plane that had just formed and had not yet fully stabilized." And as soon as Shangguan Hong opened his mouth, he broke a shocking news. ===== CHAPTER 54 =====

94. Looks like I can pull off something big!

A newly formed dimensional plane!

Upon hearing Shangguan Hong's explanation, aside from Shangguan Pu, who had long been aware of the inside story, even the several association presidents like Yu Haojia, Song Yongzhang, and Mo Yingtian could not help but sit up straight, staring fixedly at Shangguan Hong.

As for Lu Li and the others, their eyes were also filled with shock.

"President, are you telling the truth?" In the end, it was Yu Haojia who spoke first to ask.

The Magic Card civilization is of a very high level and scale, with various dimensional planes attached to it.

But in reality, the essence of a dimensional plane is the remnant proof left behind after the destruction of various worlds; the formation of every dimensional plane signifies the destruction of a world.

Similar to the Home of Spirit Beasts that Lu Li had entered previously, and the Fog Ruins where the second stage of the youth training competition was held, they were formed after the destruction of worlds from different civilizations, evolving over a long period of time.

It is just that not all destroyed worlds eventually form dimensional planes; more of them simply vanish into the long river of history, ultimately remaining unknown to anyone.

And until now, Magic Card masters have not found the reason for the destruction of these worlds. After all, in a certain sense, the Magic Card civilization is also a world, just that compared to other worlds, the Magic Card civilization has a higher level and a more vast territory.

But since the situation of other worlds being destroyed exists, it also means that the Magic Card civilization will likewise be threatened by this destruction. Throughout history, many Magic Card masters have sought the root cause and the truth to prevent such things from happening.

The destruction of a world poses a threat, but correspondingly, the dimensional planes born after a world's destruction also signify extremely rich resources. Although contradictory, this is also one of the places Magic Card masters love to explore the most.
