Necromancer, summon skeletons, practice the Heaven-Swallowing Magic Skill

Led by Liu Ruyan, Lu Ming walked into the banquet hall. He was surrounded by various nobles. Some of them were talking in low voices, while others were drinking from their glasses. The air was filled with the faint smell of champagne and perfume.

Lu Ming and Liu Ruyan found a seat and sat down. They raised their glasses and Liu Ruyan apologized again for the previous misunderstanding: "Lu Ming, I'm really sorry for letting you be treated like that. I have severely reprimanded those people."

Lu Ming smiled slightly and responded lightly: "Miss Liu, don't mind. I know this is not your intention. Besides, the matter has been resolved, right?"

Liu Ruyan nodded, with a hint of appreciation in her eyes: "You have a good attitude, Lu Ming, which is a very rare quality. Okay, I will go to entertain other guests, you can enjoy it here slowly."

Lu Ming nodded, watched Liu Ruyan leave, and savored the wine in his hand alone.

At this moment, Lu Ming noticed Alia not far away. She was wearing a dark green dress tonight, and the golden patterns on the hem of the dress sparkled under the light, like an elf in the night.

Arya seemed to have noticed Lu Ming as well. She smiled slightly and walked towards him slowly.

"Lu Ming, I didn't expect to meet you here." Alia's voice was gentle and pleasant. She picked up the wine glass and clinked it gently with Lu Ming.

"It's indeed an unexpected surprise." Lu Ming responded with a smile, "Alia, you look particularly charming tonight."

Alia felt shy when she heard that, then smiled generously and said, "Thank you for the compliment."

As the two were talking, Selina quietly appeared behind them.

She was wearing a dark blue robe inlaid with silver star and moon patterns, which flickered faintly under the light, like stars in the night sky, exuding a mysterious and charming aura.

Her golden hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, gently brushing against her fair skin, emitting a faint luster.

There is a deep mystery in her eyes, which makes people want to explore the secrets.

Selina couldn't help but feel jealous when she saw Lu Ming and Aaliyah chatting happily.

She couldn't help biting her lips lightly, forcibly suppressing the unhappiness in her heart, and then walked towards Lu Ming with graceful steps, reaching out and gently touching his shoulder, whispering: "Hi, Lu Ming, I'm so sorry, I'm late."

Then she smiled at Arya. Although the smile was full of politeness, a closer look revealed a hint of imperceptible hostility.

After hearing the voice, Lu Ming turned around and saw Selina at a glance. The corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, revealing a bright smile, and praised: "Teacher Selina, you look particularly different tonight, so beautiful!"

As Selina listened to Lu Ming's words of praise, the gloom on her face gradually dissipated and her mood became cheerful.

She smiled at Alia and asked, "My name is Selina, and I'm Lu Ming's teacher. May I ask who you are...?"

Arya gracefully extended her right hand and introduced herself: "I am Arya from Charles Chamber of Commerce. I am very happy to meet you."

Selina gently held Arya's hand, and their eyes met, as if in that brief moment, they had already seen through the secrets hidden in each other's hearts.

Lu Ming was watching this scene from the sidelines, feeling a sense of uneasiness in his heart. He tried to break the delicate atmosphere with a lighthearted remark: "You two, why don't we find a quiet place to continue our conversation?"

However, although the smiles of both Selina and Arya did not fade, a faint smell of gunpowder filled the air.

As women, their intuition is often extremely sharp.

Although Lu Ming tried his best to conceal it, Selina and Alia both vaguely felt that their relationship with Lu Ming was not that simple.

Alia was skeptical about what Lu Ming said about the teacher-student relationship, but Selina's sixth sense told her that there must be an unknown connection between Lu Ming and Alia.

Lu Ming noticed the subtle changes in the two women and secretly groaned in his heart. He tried to find a suitable opportunity to withdraw.

But every time he opened his mouth, Selina and Arya would stop him with threatening looks, forcing him to stay where he was.

At this moment, a handsome young nobleman dressed in gorgeous robes came into their sight.

His appearance immediately attracted the attention of people around him, and many people began to whisper, guessing the identity of this young nobleman.

The young man seemed to be accustomed to such occasions. He moved gracefully among the crowd and soon came in front of Lu Ming and others.

When he saw Selina and Aaliyah, there was a flash of surprise in his eyes.

These two women not only have stunning looks, but also outstanding temperaments, which makes his heart beat fast.

So, he walked straight towards them with a glass of wine and a confident smile.

"It is a great honor for me to have the chance to meet you two beautiful ladies."

The young man's voice was full of magnetism. He focused all his attention on the two women and completely ignored Lu Ming next to him.

Selina and Alia responded politely, but their eyes would occasionally drift towards Lu Ming unconsciously, as if silently asking: Do you know this person?

Lu Ming shook his head, indicating that he didn't know him.

Suddenly, the two goddesses ignored each other and politely rejected the invitation.

Faced with Selina and Arya's cold responses, the boy's smile gradually froze, and the coldness in his eyes became more and more obvious.

He tried to save face, but the two women's firm attitude made him feel quite embarrassed.

Anger rose in his heart, and he turned his attention to Lu Ming, believing that the root of all this was because of this "uninvited guest".

At the same time, the boy arrived late and didn't know what had just happened downstairs.

He didn't even know that Lu Ming came up with Liu Ruyan.

When they saw Lu Ming was dressed simply, they mistook him for a commoner who had sneaked in, or a servant of a noble, and immediately started to cause trouble.

"You," the young man pointed at Lu Ming, his voice full of disdain, "Do you know where this is? This is the Liu family's private banquet. Only invited nobles can attend. Not just any random person can sneak in."

"Either leave now!"

"Or I'll have you dragged out!"

Seeing this scene, the nobles around began to whisper, looking like they were watching a show.

Many people were already dissatisfied with the fact that Lu Ming could talk to two beauties, but they did not dare to provoke him easily because of Liu Ruyan's face.

Now, seeing someone coming forward, they were secretly proud of themselves, and some even began to agree with the young man and tried to isolate Lu Ming.

Standing there, facing the pressure from all around him, his expression was calm, without the slightest sign of panic.

Just when Lu Ming wanted to say something, seeing Lu Ming being bullied in public, Selina and Alia stopped their secret rivalry.

They faced the outside in unison, staring at the young man with unfriendly expressions.

In order to protect Lu Ming, she didn't even care about her image as a lady. In front of everyone, they all said in unison: "Get lost!"

Seeing this, Lu Ming did not say anything. With a faint smile on his face, he sat there drinking and watching the fun.

The young man's face turned extremely ugly. He didn't expect that the two goddesses would insult him in public for a commoner. His expression suddenly became gloomy.

The young man was unwilling to give in and argued, "Two beautiful ladies, how could you do this to me? This man is obviously a lowly civilian. He has no right to sit here, let alone chat with you. I just want to ask him to leave for you."

Ai Liya said indifferently: "You don't need to care about our affairs. What's more, whether Lu Ming is qualified to sit here is not up to you!"

"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. It's not too late to leave now. Otherwise, there will be consequences that you won't be able to bear."

Selina threatened with a cold look on her face: "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you are a noble. Lu Ming is a distinguished guest invited by Miss Liu Ruyan. If you dare to speak rudely and deliberately pick a fight, don't blame me for being rude!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the whispers around him stopped abruptly, and everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Ming, including the young man.

Especially the young man, his expression turned extremely ugly.

Hearing the warnings from the two goddesses, he couldn't believe his ears.

But things have come to this point, with so many people watching, the boy still refuses to give up for the sake of face.

He stared at Lu Ming and asked, "You...you said you were invited by Miss Liu?"

Lu Ming nodded calmly and said nothing more.

He didn't have to prove anything to anyone.

But he would not allow others to insult him at will.

At this moment, Liu Ruyan's figure appeared again at the entrance of the banquet hall. She seemed to sense something strange here and walked over quickly.

"Lu Ming, what happened?" Liu Ruyan's voice was clear and powerful. Her appearance was like a spring breeze, instantly changing the whole scene.

When the young man saw Liu Ruyan, his face turned even paler. He knew that everything was true.

He wanted to bully a weak opponent, but he ended up hitting a wall.

This time, I might have really offended someone I shouldn't have offended.

Liu Ruyan walked to Lu Ming's side, and after understanding what happened, she turned to the young man and said with unquestionable dignity: "My friend, I hope you understand that Lu Ming is my guest and my friend. I hope you apologize to him immediately, otherwise..."

The young man lowered his head, not daring to look directly into Liu Ruyan's eyes. He felt extremely remorseful, but at the same time he knew he had no choice but to apologize in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I didn't know he was Miss Liu's friend, I...I apologize."

Liu Ruyan didn't say anything else. The young man felt relieved and ran away dejectedly, then found an empty corner and hid there.
