When Hu Batian went over, Diane, Phantom Flame and Spectral Refiner were still very much engrossed in their card game.
"Game! Yes! I finally won for once! Hahaha, hand it over!" Diane knocked the table and extended a gleeful hand to Phantom Flame and Spectral Refiner.
"Oh sucks, I just won 100 million and you got them all! I refuse to accept this!" Phantom Flame whined.
She then grinned blinking her eyes and turned to Spectral Flame to say joyously, "Luckily I'm not making a loss though! I won 100 million from you just now, haha!"
…
The three of them were absorbed in their card game and had blatantly ignored Hu Batian. It was not just ignoring him; Hu Batian had gone up to bow respectfully and speak to the trio in a deferential tone but they did not even spare him a glance.
It was as if Hu Batian was just a puff of air that was overlooked entirely!
