How Did You Know the Name Chloe Zhu
Ever since they were young, every time Evan Xiao challenged him to a "friendly match," it always ended with Evan beating him mercilessly.
He was fed up!
"You think I'm only a hundred years old?" Evan said coolly. "I'm here because I want to ask you something."
"What is it?"
"Who is Chloe Zhu?" Evan asked.
Leon Zane's eyes widened in shock. "You remember her? Chloe Zhu?"
"Did I really know someone like that?" Evan frowned.
"Of course you did," Leon replied. "She was your woman! Later, you were hit by the Immortal Love Hex, she removed it for you, and then you forgot all about her..."
Leon Zane told him everything he knew about Evan Xiao and Chloe Zhu's past.
Unexpectedly, Evan just frowned and said, "What kind of nonsense is that?"
Leon Zane: "...Nonsense?"
"Where is she? I want to see her."
"Just follow your Heartscale—Evan Xiao's sacred dragon scale, the magical link to Chloe Zhu—and you'll find her."
"Heartscale?" Evan glanced at his true form. "When did I lose my Heartscale?"
"Your Highness, maybe you should ask her yourself," Leon suggested.
Evan nodded. "Got it."
"But Your Highness," Leon said, studying him carefully. "Since you've already forgotten her, how did you even know the name Chloe Zhu?"
Evan Xiao had been severely injured by the backlash from the Immortal Love Hex.
The Celestial Empress punished Quentin Chin and Louis Lin, making them do hard labor for twenty years for failing to protect their master.
So Leon figured that no one would dare mention that name in front of him.
Evan Xiao's face was grim and silent.
"Your Highness?"
"It's nothing," Evan replied. "You can go now."
"Oh..." Leon thought he was acting strange.

Grace returned to Loyalty Manor in Yan City from the Eastern Alliance. After flying for several hours straight, she was tired and went home to rest.
She had just taken off her clothes and lay down when someone suddenly appeared at her bedside.
Dressed in a luxurious black robe, radiating an icy aura of killing intent, he stood before her like a god of death.
"Evan Xiao?" Grace's eyes sparkled as she popped out from under the covers. "What brings you here? Looking for me?"
Evan turned away stiffly. "Put your clothes on!"
Grace glanced down at herself... She was only wearing her nightgown.
She shot Evan a look, then hurriedly got dressed.
Evan turned back around and asked, "Are you Chloe Zhu?"
"Mhm!" Grace replied, eyeing him up with a mischievous glint.
He looked a bit different from before.
His face hadn't changed much, but his whole body seemed to glow with a divine light, with not a trace of mortal aura left.
Even hotter than before, haha...
Evan started taking off his clothes.
Grace's eyes went wide. "Wait—what are you doing?"
He was wearing three layers in total.
He undid the first layer, revealing a silver undershirt beneath.
Then he undid the second layer, showing a pure white inner shirt.
He undressed with a cold, regal arrogance—dangerously sexy.
Grace couldn't take her eyes off him, her cheeks burning suspiciously red.
Finally, he removed the last piece, baring his chest.
His chest was flawless, muscles tight and well-proportioned, radiating strength.
He seemed to have recovered well.
Grace snuck a few glances, then quickly looked away, covering her nose to stop a nosebleed—no way was she letting him think she was a thirsty perv the first time they met.
"Here." Evan summoned a ball of fire and warmed his chest.
Gradually, words began to appear on his chest.
On his chest, it read: Evan Xiao loves Chloe Zhu.
The words would appear when he took a bath, and disappear once he was done.
