Ye Chen looked at Hao Sheng and the others, saying, "I'll leave Sweet Sweet with you guys for now. I have some matters to attend to in the Second Region, and I'm not sure when I'll be back."

"The Second Region?" Hao Sheng was momentarily stunned.

"Yeah."

Hong Ye frowned and said, "Ye Chen, the Second Region is not a very friendly place. The people there are quite prejudiced against outsiders and look down on them. The local Pet Tamers also disdain those from outside. They've always been like this, and it's something ingrained in their bones."

Ye Chen nodded, fully aware.

"Doesn't matter, if anyone's unhappy, I'll beat them into submission!"

Ye Chen said with a smile.

Hearing Ye Chen's words, the others were speechless. This junior brother of theirs was always so domineering.

Hao Sheng, however, was very pleased. While all his other disciples were cautious, only Ye Chen inherited his dominant personality.

Regarding Ye Chen, Hao Sheng truly admired him from the bottom of his heart.

"Good disciple, when you get to the Second Region, be a bit more domineering. Don't embarrass us from the Seventh Region!"

Hao Sheng laughed heartily, and Ye Chen nodded, indicating his understanding.

After bidding farewell, Ye Chen set off towards the Second Region.

Leaving the Seventh Region at eight in the evening, by midnight, Ye Chen found a place along the road to rest. The next morning at dawn, he continued his journey.

Around ten in the morning, Ye Chen arrived at the Second Region.

The Second Region wasn't large, about the size of two S Cities.

After landing, Ye Chen approached a passerby and asked, "Brother, could you tell me which part of the Second Region this is?"

A man in his early thirties gave Ye Chen a disdainful look and said sarcastically, "An outsider?"

"Yes, from the Seventh Region."

Upon hearing the Seventh Region, the man showed a sneer and said with a chuckle, "Seventh Region, haha, the countryside. This here is the Proletarian District, really, you'd better leave. This is not where you should be."

Seeing the man's superior attitude, Ye Chen was infuriated. He knew people from the Second Region were prejudiced, but didn't expect them to be this extreme.

Ye Chen, smiling, asked, "Are you a local from the Second Region?"

"Yes, and so what? My ancestors have always been on this land!" the man replied arrogantly.

Ye Chen slapped the man across the face, "I'm hitting you locals!"

This slap was so powerful that Ye Chen knocked out one of the man's teeth.

"Damn you, how dare you hit me!" the man shouted angrily.

"Mouth off! You deserve another slap!" Ye Chen slapped down again.

The man was stunned, and as he came to his senses, he shouted loudly, "I've been hit, an outsider hit us locals and insulted us! Someone, help!"

His shout attracted a crowd around them.

Ye Chen scanned the people with a glance and cursed, "Get the hell out of my way!"

"Arrogant fool, courting death!" someone yelled angrily, approaching with a long knife.

Seeing the newcomer, the man shouted excitedly, "White Robe Sir, it's White Robe Sir, teach him a lesson and make him remember!"

White Robe, at Level 68, was indeed a formidable figure.

White Robe approached Ye Chen and swung his long knife at him.

Ye Chen didn't dodge at all, reaching out with two fingers to catch the descending blade.

Clang!

With a squeeze of his fingers, Ye Chen snapped the knife.

"Ah! Barehand catching of a blade!"

White Robe was dumbfounded, exclaiming, "How is that possible? This is a Six Stars Legendary Weapon."

The Dark Princess suddenly appeared, her Heaven-Sundering Spear pointing at White Robe's throat, coldly ordering, "Get lost!"

"What! Level 71!"

"A Breakthrough, a Breakthrough!"

White Robe was scared stiff, staring at Ye Chen, not daring to move a muscle, and swallowed hard.

He couldn't understand how he'd been so unlucky as to provoke a Level 71 Breakthrough so easily.

White Robe stammered after a long while, "Sir, spare me, I know my mistake!"

Ye Chen glanced at White Robe and coldly said, "Get lost!"

White Robe, as if granted amnesty, turned and ran.

The surrounding crowd also scattered in confusion, afraid they'd be the next to suffer.

The original mocking man wanted to flee too, but was grabbed by Ye Chen by the neck.

Ye Chen sneered, "Brother, where are you running to?"

The man trembled all over, his forehead covered in cold sweat, and clasped his hands together, begging, "Brother, no, grandpa, forgive me, I won't dare again."

"If you dare speak nonsense again, I'll cut off your tongue, believe me!"

Looking at Ye Chen's cold eyes, the man believed Ye Chen could indeed do such a thing.

"Understood, understood, grandpa! I won't do it again!"

"Scram!"

Ye Chen twisted the man's neck, turning him to face away, then kicked him far away.

"Boss, why not beat him to death! Look at him, just like a dog," the Dark Princess said, pouting.

"No need for that. For people like him, this is enough of a lesson. Next time he gets arrogant, he'll remember the pain and won't dare again."

The Dark Princess nodded and acknowledged with an 'oh'.

Ye Chen took out his phone and made a call, not to the Supreme, but to contact Xiao Fan.

When the call connected, Xiao Fan joyfully said, "Ye Chen brother, what brings you to call me?"

"Where are you?"

"I'm in the Proletarian District of the Second Region. Why?" Xiao Fan asked in confusion.

"I'm also in the Second Region, in Putuo District."

"Really!" Xiao Fan exclaimed with joy, "I'll send you a location, come on over. I need your help with something here!"

"Alright!"

After hanging up, Xiao Fan sent Ye Chen a location.

The location was atop a tall building,

Ye Chen followed the location and found himself at a skyscraper known as the Twin Towers.

Two identical buildings stood side by side, extremely majestic.

Ye Chen leaped up to the top of the building.

On the rooftop, Xiao Fan and several people were sitting and discussing something.

Seeing Ye Chen arrive, Xiao Fan enthusiastically greeted him and introduced him to everyone, "Everyone, this is my good brother Ye Chen, incredibly powerful. The Chosen Alliance's Big Beard was killed by my brother!"

The crowd was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "Impressive, come, come, Ye Chen brother, have a seat."

Xiao Fan pulled Ye Chen to sit beside him.

These people's levels were around Level 64.

One person kept staring at Ye Chen, his eyes flashing with some strangeness.

Ye Chen looked at him and frowned, "Brother, what is it? Do you know me?"

The person rapidly shook his head, "No, no, not at all. Just felt that Ye Chen brother is truly remarkable and couldn't help but glance a few more times, haha, don't take it to heart, don't take it to heart!"

Ye Chen scrutinized the person from top to bottom, finding his figure somewhat familiar, as if he'd seen him somewhere before.
