774: Chapter 774 Hero, Mr. Ye!

Early the next morning, just as the sky was beginning to brighten.

A Gulfstream G650ER private business jet took off from an Eagle Country airport, crossed the Atlantic, and flew toward the East.

Inside the cabin, Ye Chen leaned back against the spacious leather seat, closing his eyes to rest.

Euphemia and Yi Yue sat on his left and right.

This plane had been specially arranged by Euphemia.

In her own words: "As a majestic princess of Eagle Country, how could I let my future man fly commercial? It's beneath us!"

So, she just used the public jet for private purposes.

Ye Chen was speechless at the time, but he didn't say anything.

Because he knew that saying anything would be useless.

This princess's skin was thicker than the walls of Eagle Country.

Euphemia didn't waste any more breath; she pulled a small mirror from her bag and started touching up her makeup.

Defining her brows, drawing her eyeliner, applying lipstick... The whole process was more professional than a makeup artist's.

Yi Yue looked up from her book, glanced at her, and couldn't help but laugh: "Miya, why are you so nervous?"

Euphemia didn't even look up.

"It's my first time going to Dragon Country with this status, of course I have to look beautiful."

"This status?" Yi Yue raised an eyebrow, "What status?"

Euphemia replied righteously: "The status of Ye Chen's pursuer, of course."

Yi Yue: "..."

She turned her head to glance at Ye Chen and found that the man was still keeping his eyes closed with steady breathing, unsure if he was really asleep or just playing dead.

Most likely, he was playing dead.

Half a day later, the plane landed at Xiamen City Airport.

The cabin door opened, and the three of them walked down the airstairs into the domestic arrivals hall.

The hall was bustling with people.

Originally, everything was normal, until...

"Holy crap! Is that Mr. Ye?!"

A young man's voice exploded in the hall, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a thousand ripples.

Ye Chen paused.

Before he could react, the young man had already raised his phone and was frantically taking pictures of him.

"It really is Mr. Ye!"

"The Mr. Ye who killed the High Priest in Eagle Country and became a hero!"

At this shout, everyone in the hall turned their gazes simultaneously.

Some were stunned, some widened their eyes, and some started fishing for their phones.

Then, they compared the photos.

The next second, a noise like a tsunami resounded throughout the hall.

"It's him! Look at the photo! It's exactly the same!"

"Oh my god! Why is he in Xiamen City? No... he's from Dragon Country, isn't it normal for him to return to Dragon Country?"

"Quick, quick, quick! Take photos, take photos! Post it to Moments!"

"Mr. Ye! Can we take a picture together? Just one!"

The crowd surged over like a tide; some held up phones to take photos, some recorded videos, and some started livestreaming immediately.

In just over ten seconds, the three of them were surrounded so tightly they couldn't move.

Euphemia was jostled back and forth.

Yi Yue was also pushed, causing her to lean closer to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen stood in place, looking at the dense crowd in front of him, the veins on his forehead throbbing.

It wasn't that he hadn't seen big scenes before.

But being surrounded by hundreds of people in an airport hall like a monkey on display was a first.

"Mr. Ye! I heard you killed a group of very powerful Bodyguards by yourself in Eagle Country, is that true?!"

"Mr. Ye! Did you kill the High Priest with your own hands?"

"Mr. Ye! Is the Eagle Country princess chasing you?"

"Mr. Ye! Look over here... Say cheese!"

Questions came flying like a barrage, and flashbulbs popped incessantly.

Ye Chen took a deep breath and turned his head to look at Euphemia.

Euphemia was being jostled, looking completely bewildered, her long golden hair in a mess, one high heel askew; she looked absolutely disheveled.

Although she was a noble princess, the citizens of Eagle Country were very restrained and would never swarm like this.

She had never seen such a scene before.

Ye Chen glanced at Yi Yue again.

Yi Yue was calm, but her expression wasn't great, as she was being pushed by the crowd until she was almost pressed against him.

Ye Chen withdrew his gaze and took a deep breath.

Then, he reached out his hands, wrapping one arm around Yi Yue's waist and the other around Euphemia's.

Euphemia's body stiffened abruptly, and her face flushed crimson.

Ye Chen didn't look at her; he bent his legs slightly and then exerted force suddenly.

The next second, the three of them shot up from the ground, leaping over the heads of the crowd.

That's right, they leaped over.

Just like the lightness skills in movies, they soared into the air, tracing a graceful arc before landing steadily behind the crowd.

The hall went quiet instantly.

Hundreds of people tilted their heads back, mouths agape in an 'O' shape, staring blankly at the three figures that had landed dozens of meters away.

"H-holy crap?!"

"Can he fly?!"

"It's not flying, it's lightness skill! Dragon Country Kung Fu!"

"That's so cool! Quick, quick, quick! Chase them!"

The crowd went wild and took off running after the three of them.

However, the moment Ye Chen landed, he didn't pause for even a second; with one in each arm, he grabbed the two women and sprinted toward the airport exit.

His speed was as fast as lightning.

Euphemia was tucked under his arm, feeling as if she were riding the clouds, with nothing but the sound of rushing wind in her ears.

She wanted to scream, but the wind rushed into her mouth, preventing any sound from coming out.

Yi Yue was calm, wrapping her arms around Ye Chen's waist, her face pressed against his chest, eyes closed, with a faint smile even hanging on the corners of her lips.

She had experienced this kind of scene before.

It wasn't the first time.

Ye Chen rushed out of the airport exit, spotted a taxi parked on the side of the road, and dashed over in a few strides.

He pulled open the car door, shoved Euphemia into the back seat, placed Yi Yue next to her, and then jumped into the front passenger seat himself.

"Driver, go!"

The taxi driver was lying back in his seat listening to the radio and was startled by the sudden commotion.

He turned his head to glance at Ye Chen, then at the two panting women in the back seat, and ten thousand possibilities flashed through his mind.

"Drive, quickly!" Ye Chen urged.

The driver snapped back to reality and then noticed a crowd of people rushing toward them.

That scene... it was much crazier than seeing a celebrity and chasing after them!

The driver was stunned: "What... what do you do? Why are they chasing you?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Ye Chen said helplessly, "Just lose them."

The driver hesitated: "There are too many of them, I'm a little..."

"Five times the fare."

"Deal!"

The driver slammed his foot on the gas pedal, and the taxi shot off like an arrow from a bowstring.

Behind them, hundreds of people chased to the airport exit, watching helplessly as the taxi disappeared into the traffic, panting like oxen, their expressions incredibly colorful.

"They... they ran so fast..."

"I chased for three hundred meters and didn't even see the taillights..."

"It's a pity Mr. Ye doesn't participate in the Olympics with this speed."

"Are you stupid? If he participated in the Olympics, wouldn't that be bullying everyone else?"

In the crowd, a streamer holding a phone for a live broadcast spoke to the camera, panting.

"Hey guys, did you all see that just now? Mr. Ye Chen flew right over our heads!"

"That speed, those moves, he's basically a real-life superhero!"

"My current mood... excited! So excited!"

The comments in the livestream were scrolling frantically, and the number of online viewers soared from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands.

"I saw it! I took a screenshot! Mr. Ye's flying was so cool!"

"Hahahaha, the way the princess was tucked under his arm killed me!"

"Princess: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?"

"Mr. Ye: I don't care if you're a princess or not, I'm tucking you under my arm and running first!"

The taxi sped all the way, arriving directly outside Min Cuisine Restaurant.

The taxi drove all the way and soon stopped at the entrance of Min Cuisine Restaurant.

Ye Chen pushed open the car door and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Finally lost them."

Euphemia crawled out of the back seat, her golden hair a tangled mess, her makeup half-ruined, and she looked so disheveled she didn't look like a princess at all.

She leaned against the car door, her legs still weak, and looked at Ye Chen with a resentful expression.

"You... couldn't you have been a little gentler just now?"

"Tucking me under your arm to run, I almost thought you were going to check me in as luggage."

Ye Chen glanced at her: "How about I take you back and let you be surrounded by those hundreds of people again?"

Euphemia's mouth shut immediately.

Yi Yue got out from the other side, straightened her collar, and her expression gradually softened.

She glanced at the restaurant's sign, the corners of her mouth curling up slightly. Finally back!

Ye Chen led the two women and walked toward the restaurant.

Ye Chen pushed open the glass door and walked inside.

Then, his footsteps halted.

The restaurant was abnormally quiet.

It should have been lunchtime at this hour; under normal circumstances, the hall would be filled with at least seven or eight tables of guests, but at this moment, the entire hall was empty, without a single person.

Ye Chen's expression shifted, and he suddenly discovered... the private rooms on the second floor were packed with "little people."

That was what [Earth Vein Tracking] had sensed.

Someone was hiding inside!!! And there was a huge number of them!

Xiao Ya had just walked out of the kitchen, and upon seeing Ye Chen, her expression changed drastically.

"Brother Ye?"

Ye Chen frowned slightly: "Is someone causing trouble in the restaurant?"

Xiao Ya didn't answer, but instead rushed out and tried desperately to push Ye Chen outside.

"Brother Ye, you need to leave quickly!"

Ye Chen stumbled back from her push, looking bewildered: "No... why are you pushing me? Did something actually happen? I'll come and deal with them..."

Xiao Ya stamped her feet in anxiety, tears almost falling. "You can't deal with them, you'd better leave quickly!"

"It'll be too late if you don't leave now!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a sound of footsteps came from upstairs.

"Thump, thump, thump," like an earthquake.

Ye Chen raised his head and looked toward the staircase.

The next second, he saw a scene he would never forget for the rest of his life—

A crowd of people surged out from the stairwell, each with a look of fanaticism on their faces, eyes glowing with a green light, charging toward Ye Chen's direction.
