Even she was just coming out for some fresh air, and thanks to her good upbringing and manners, she would never do something as rude as standing someone up.

What she hadn’t expected was that this seemingly ordinary Ethan Carter actually had a touch of the extraordinary.

At the very least, he looked quite distinguished.

Ethan Carter was also looking at Olivia Harris. In his previous life, he had seen Olivia Harris before—at that time, Olivia Harris was already a goddess who dominated her domain, incredibly powerful and stunningly beautiful, with countless admirers across the world.

But in his previous life, Ethan Carter had never met Olivia Harris in person, nor had he ever told Olivia Harris that he was once one of her blind date candidates.

Now, this Olivia Harris should be just starting out, already awakened, possessing cultivation, which was quite astonishing—she was already at the fourth level.

In Ethan Carter’s early perception, she was much stronger than the Scorpion, just half a step away from reaching the fifth level, on par with a Grandmaster of the Dan-holding stage.

In his previous life, Olivia Harris was already a top figure in the world, and now, even at the very beginning, she already possessed impressive strength. The depths of this world were even greater than Ethan Carter had anticipated.

While ordinary people were still debating whether awakenings and mutations existed, some individuals and factions had already quietly moved ahead.

“You’re very different from what others told me!” Olivia Harris’s beautiful eyes looked at Ethan Carter, her calm expression tinged with a hint of surprise.

“Secondhand information always has some gaps. That’s normal.” Ethan Carter just smiled faintly, then picked up a teapot from the table and poured himself a cup of tea.

Olivia Harris simply watched Ethan Carter, feeling that this man was a bit different. She knew her own beauty was exceptional, and with her cultivation and unique aura, even many so-called elite men barely dared to speak in her presence—she’d seen plenty of that.

But even a pursuer like Jack Morgan wouldn’t act as casually as Ethan Carter, as if she were just an ordinary blind date.

What she didn’t know was that sitting across from her was someone who had once been an astonishing existence, who had stood at the pinnacle of countless beings across all worlds.

Saintesses, goddesses—he could have as many as he wanted with just a word.

Meeting one Olivia Harris was far from enough to move him.

“Sorry for causing you some trouble because of me,” Olivia Harris said apologetically.

A faint smile appeared on Ethan Carter’s face. Olivia Harris was calm and ethereal, but she wasn’t someone who didn’t know right from wrong, which made him quite like her.

Even though in his previous life he lost everything because of this, he still couldn’t bring himself to dislike Olivia Harris.

“It’s nothing, just a small matter,” Ethan Carter smiled. He truly didn’t care—absolute strength brought absolute confidence.

“You’re very mysterious!” Olivia Harris’s eyes sparkled with curiosity.

Her cultivation was far inferior to Ethan Carter’s. Ethan Carter could easily see through her level, but she couldn’t see through Ethan Carter at all. Plus, the cultivation methods they practiced were worlds apart, so she couldn’t even tell if Ethan Carter had cultivated.

Ethan Carter didn’t mind and said, “Who doesn’t have a few secrets, right?”

“No matter what, today’s trouble started because of me. I can add you on WeChat. If Jack Morgan dares to bother you again, contact me on WeChat. He’s not someone you can handle—he’s very dangerous!” Olivia Harris took out her phone and displayed a QR code. “I’ll talk to him again to make sure he won’t trouble you anymore!”

“Alright!” Ethan Carter nodded, took out his phone, scanned the QR code, and added her as a friend.

After scanning the QR code and adding each other, Olivia Harris left right away. Ethan Carter didn’t stop her—after all, this was just a blind date arranged by their elders, and neither of them took it seriously.

Even though they both found each other quite remarkable and had some admiration, it wasn’t affection.

Meanwhile, elsewhere, Sophia Clark was reporting to Jack Morgan on the phone about being driven away.

On the other end, Jack Morgan’s voice was heavy. “I didn’t expect that Ethan Carter is actually still alive. The people I sent ended up dying mysteriously!”

“Is it possible that Ethan Carter did it? He actually knows about our business. I think it might be related to him!” Sophia Clark said.

“Hmph, whether it’s related to him or not, I won’t let him go. But for now, it’s not the right time to act rashly. The people I sent yesterday died and even alerted the authorities. Now is not the time to make a move. Once my cultivation is complete, the first thing I’ll do when I come out is kill him!”

Jack Morgan gritted his teeth on the other end of the line.

“Keep an eye on Miaoyi and see if there’s any way to repair the relationship. If you can’t, you know the consequences. I don’t need useless people!”

“Yes!”

Sophia Clark shuddered at the thought of those terrifying consequences.

As the story unfolds in different directions, after leaving Tianranju, Ethan Carter had just returned to Xingchen Bay Community.

But just as he arrived at the entrance of Xingchen Bay, he noticed that, at some point, a Ferrari was parked at the gate.

The Ferrari’s door opened, and a stylishly dressed, glamorous woman with long legs stepped out.
