Dong Yang succeeds

Gun Gun walked out from the flames, carrying the winter sun. Looking at the winter sun in its hands, Gun Gun was actually drooling.

Fortunately, Ye Chen was quick-witted and snatched the winter sun back.

Gun Gun said with a longing expression: "Can you let me have a taste?"

"No. Once I've gathered all five items, I'll refine them into something even better for you to eat!" Ye Chen patted Gun Gun on the head.

Gun Gun wiped its drool and gave a happy grunt.

Yaorao spoke up: "Your Excellency Ye Chen, now that our transaction is complete, let us part ways here."

"By the way, Your Excellency Yaorao, do you know the whereabouts of these four items: summer snow, Yin Yang Water, Heavenly Silk, and Earthworm?"

Yaorao was stunned and smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency Ye Chen, your goals are truly ambitious. Which of these items isn't a Heaven And Earth Treasure? They are all excellent items for us monsters. If it weren't for the Devil King's order that we aren't allowed to touch this winter sun, it would have been gone long ago. I'm sorry, I really don't know. Whether they have appeared is one thing, and even if they have, they are likely in the deepest part of the Secret Realm."

Ye Chen frowned slightly: "Where is that deepest part?"

Yaorao pointed to the left: "Over there. Although this is the inner circle, it is not the deepest part. If you keep walking in that direction, it's at least several hundred miles away."

"Hmm? Several hundred miles, that far?"

Yaorao laughed: "Just about. This Secret Realm is huge to begin with, and you were heading in the wrong direction. If you had gone that way, it would have been closer."

Ye Chen nodded, cupped his hands in thanks, and turned to leave.

After watching Ye Chen leave, a smile appeared on the corner of Yaorao's mouth. He slowly walked into the center of the flames, sat down cross-legged, and began doing something unknown.

Ye Chen walked out of the Fire Forest and headed in the direction Yaorao had mentioned.

After walking for nearly two hours, Ye Chen finally completely left the territory of the Ice and Fire Forest. A high mountain appeared ahead. Looking up, the top of the mountain was shrouded in mist, and the peak was invisible. Before him was a canyon-like cave, and Ye Chen walked straight in.

As soon as he arrived inside, Ye Chen discovered traces of people, and not just one group, because there were obvious signs of fighting on the surrounding walls.

These traces indicated that it was definitely not just one group of people.

After walking a further distance, the path ahead suddenly opened up, and a valley appeared before Ye Chen's eyes.

"Hahaha! I told you, waiting here like sitting ducks is absolutely no problem. Brothers, the prey has arrived!"

Ye Chen turned around abruptly and saw six people jump down from the walls behind him.

The six people were wearing uniform attire.

"Hehe, Big Brother, you're still the smart one, lurking here like a camper."

Wang Mazi laughed: "That goes without saying. Do you even know who your Big Brother is? I am the strategist of the Shenwu Alliance, a legendary mastermind! Searching for items yourself—how could that ever be as fast as killing people and robbing them? Hahaha!"

Li Laosi looked at Ye Chen and grinned: "Kid, hand over everything you have, and I'll spare your life. Otherwise, I'll definitely kill you dead!"

Ye Chen glanced at the group; their Rank was all around LV45.

Ye Chen took out the Thunderclap Blade and chuckled: "Are you gentlemen planning to commit robbery and murder?"

"You can understand it that way. Enough talk, hand over your good items and gold coins," Wang Mazi said coldly.

Ye Chen revealed his gold coin balance: "If you want them, come and take them."

Wang Mazi was stunned the moment he saw Ye Chen's gold coin balance: "Three! Thirty million!"

The group looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.

Afterwards, it was replaced by overflowing Killing Intent.

"Big Brother, if we kill this kid, we'll be rich!"

"Mm, do it!" A ferocious look appeared in Wang Mazi's eyes.

The six of them urged their pets to charge toward Ye Chen.

Ye Chen summoned Dan Shi, Blood Asura, and Dark Ji, and said calmly: "Just kill them, and bring the loot over later."

The three nodded and charged toward Wang Mazi and his group.

Ye Chen didn't even look at the situation behind him and continued walking forward.

About five minutes later, Dan Shi and the others caught up.

"Here, this is the loot from them; it's all here."

Ye Chen nodded and put the items away.

The experience capsules on the five of them only added up to a little over 600,000, which was completely underwhelming.

Arriving at the end of the valley, the path suddenly broke off, and a deep ravine appeared before Ye Chen.

Ye Chen did not hesitate and flew directly down.

Upon arriving below, Ye Chen discovered that it was like the bottom of the sea; many schools of fish were swimming in the air.

Ahead, a group of people was fighting a monster.

[ Qili ] Rank: LV59, Class: Lord, Attribute: Earth, Combat Power: 98000, HP: 1750000, Race: Eight-Claw Clan.

It was an octopus-like monster, waving its eight tentacles and launching attacks at the group. The six people could only defend passively against Qili's attacks.

"Big Brother, it's no good. If this continues, we are completely outmatched!"

The six people's Rank and strength were not even as good as the previous six led by Wang Mazi.

Dan Shi picked up the Lieyang Divine Bow and fired a flame arrow.

The arrow pierced one of Qili's eyes, igniting a raging fire.

- 240000!

Dan Shi's damage had clearly increased by more than just a little.

The six were overjoyed: "Someone is here!"

One of them, a Red-haired man, turned to look: "Many thanks, Your Excellency. We hope you will lend a hand and slay this monster!"

Ye Chen didn't speak, and calmly waved his hand at Dan Shi, Blood Asura, and Dark Ji.

The three understood and stepped forward to launch attacks at Qili.

Dan Shi fired one flame after another at Qili, Dark Ji struck with spear thrust after spear thrust, and Blood Asura did the same.

Facing the attacks of Blood Asura and the others, Qili found it difficult to parry for a moment.

Before long, it was beaten down to a critical health state.

Ye Chen stepped forward to perform the final harvest.

In no time at all, Ye Chen slew Qili.

He obtained all the loot.

The Red-haired man heaved a sigh of relief and said respectfully to Ye Chen: "Many thanks to you, my lord, for your help. May I ask what to call you?"

"Ye Chen."

"Many thanks, Lord Ye Chen."

The six said respectfully.

Ye Chen glanced at the six. They had no proof of identity on them. He said in a low voice: "What is this place? Where are you planning to go?"

The Red-haired man said respectfully: "Reporting to Lord Ye Chen, an hour ago, a strange light appeared ahead. It seemed like a treasure had emerged, so we planned to go over and take a look. We didn't expect to encounter this monster on the way. If it weren't for Lord Ye Chen's help, we would have been done for."

"Strange light? At which location?"

The Red-haired man pointed to a location. "It's right there. People from the Heavens Chosen Alliance and the Law Enforcement Alliance have all rushed over."

Ye Chen looked over. The location the Red-haired man pointed to was a high peak.

Aside from the treasure, Ye Chen did want to go take a look; what if it was exactly what he needed?

Ye Chen nodded and said: "Mm, thank you. You all should hurry back. The further in you go, the greater the danger. This is not a place for people of your strength."
