Kong Xi in male disguise
Ye Chen nodded and said with a smile, "Hmm, how did you sleep last night?"
"Very well. The bed here is soft and quiet, much more comfortable than sleeping in the Thousand Star Great Forest."
Jiamu said with a giggle.
Ye Chen felt that if Jiamu stayed here for a few more days, she might become so comfortable that she wouldn't want to leave.
They stayed here for five days.
He occasionally went for walks with Chen Ruxin and enjoyed entertainment in the Safe Zone, living a very comfortable life.
On the sixth day, Ye Chen set off towards the First Region, as today was the agreed meeting time with Kong Xi.
Rumble!
Another loud bang echoed in the sky, and the entire sky seemed to collapse a bit more.
Ye Chen stopped in place, looking at the sky; the crack had widened again.
It seemed that every seven days, a part of the sky would collapse.
Ye Chen frowned slightly. In a while, this world would probably undergo a great fusion.
Half a day later, Ye Chen slowly landed in the Chaoyang District of the First Region.
After a disguise, Ye Chen's appearance had completely changed. Except for his height and build, his entire person looked different.
There were people from the Heavens Chosen Alliance here, and being discovered by them would lead to unnecessary trouble.
Upon arriving at the Shenzhou Chamber of Commerce, perhaps due to the changes in the world, more and more people had been coming to buy materials and equipment recently.
The service staff inside were already a bit overwhelmed.
Seeing Ye Chen enter, a receptionist felt that Ye Chen had an extraordinary aura. She abandoned the customer she was serving and proactively stepped forward to assist him.
Ye Chen didn't say anything, took out a Mythical equipment, and calmly said, "I'm not buying anything. Can you appraise this equipment for me?"
A LV65 Mythical equipment!
The receptionist's pupils constricted, and her mood instantly became incredibly excited.
This was a Seven-Star Mythical equipment, and she would receive a large commission for acquiring it.
The woman quickly bowed and said, "Alright! Please wait here for a moment, sir. I will immediately find someone to appraise it."
Before Ye Chen could walk away, a group of people surrounded him.
"Brother, sell this equipment to me. If you sell it to them, they'll take a huge cut. Give it to me, and I guarantee you a satisfactory price!"
"Brother, give it to me! I'm from the Hongwu Alliance. This equipment is perfect for our boss, and we'll definitely give you a good price!"
A group of people chattered around Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was a bit speechless. He only intended to deal with it casually, but he didn't expect to be surrounded by these people.
"What's all this noise? What do you think the Shenzhou Chamber of Commerce is, a vegetable market?"
A majestic voice rang out. Ye Chen turned to look and saw it was the old ghost. It had been a long time since they last met, and this old ghost was already LV70.
Hearing the old ghost's scolding, the crowd dispersed.
Deep within the counter, there was a very handsome man, one could say a dashing and refined individual, whose every gesture exuded a unique aura.
The receptionist beside him stared at the man's face, her eyes almost glazed over.
She kept asking the man about his well-being.
The man looked at Ye Chen with a slight smile.
"You can go now. The person I'm waiting for has arrived," the man said with a slight smile.
Ye Chen also understood that this handsome man in front of him was Kong Xi disguised as a man.
He hadn't expected Kong Xi to still be so stunning when cross-dressing.
The female receptionist next to them was practically staring with wide eyes.
Indeed, appearance is a great asset at any time.
Kong Xi came to Ye Chen and said with a smile, "Let's go, we're going up."
"Kong Xi, why are you still dressed as a man?"
Kong Xi gave a wry smile and said, "It's all because... I'm here to discuss something today, and someone was following me, so I changed my attire and secretly snuck out."
"Alright, you've worked hard."
Upon reaching a room on the fourth floor, Kong Xi directly pushed the door open and walked in. Another person was already sitting inside.
That person was also a Monster, a Monster Ye Chen had seen before, precisely the Taotie from that secret realm.
Taotie saw Kong Xi and quickly bowed.
"Alright, you can go now."
Taotie nodded and retreated.
After sitting down, Ye Chen went straight to the point: "Kong Xi, please tell me directly what's the matter."
"Heh! You stinky man, you're really direct. Can't you chat with me for a bit, at least ask me how I've been recently?"
Kong Xi glanced at Ye Chen, took off the hat on her head, and a cascade of dark, flowing hair instantly fell down, transforming her handsome face into a stunningly beautiful one.
Ye Chen was a bit speechless; why had Kong Xi suddenly changed like this?
"Forget it, I won't bicker with you anymore. Today, Taotie came and brought me two incomplete maps. The world is slowly merging, and my subordinates told me that many places have undergone some changes. Several of the thirteen treasures have begun to appear. Do you want to come and see them with me?"
"Treasures? Do you know what those treasures are?" Ye Chen became interested.
Kong Xi gave a dry laugh and said, "Do you think I'm a god, knowing everything? Oh, right, your human powerhouses have returned from the Monster World. Do you know about that?"
"Huh? Our human powerhouses? What do you mean?"
"Seven days ago, three figures descended. You should have seen them, right?"
Recalling the three figures, Ye Chen nodded.
"Those are your human powerhouses from the Monster World. They've returned this time, likely to discuss some matters. It probably won't be long before you have a big meeting."
Kong Xi stretched, clearly very much looking forward to the great world fusion.
"Kong Xi, are you very much looking forward to the world's fusion?"
"Heh! Of course! When the worlds merge, my clansmen will descend. Will your people still dare to monitor me then? Hmph, I'll kill all of them then!"
As she spoke, Kong Xi was very domineering, her tone filled with resentment.
Ye Chen didn't respond to that statement, not bothering to engage.
Finally, he decided to try to elicit information from Kong Xi: "Kong Xi, I heard from the people of the Wood Clan that there's a secret in our world. Do you know what it is?"
Kong Xi was startled, her eyes narrowed, and she asked with a playful smile, "Ye Chen, are the humans sending you to get information from me? The Wood Clan? What the hell do the people of the Wood Clan know?"
"..."
"Uh!" It was a bit awkward; he hadn't expected to be seen through by Kong Xi like this.
"What are you laughing at?! Tell me, did the humans send you?"
Kong Xi said with a cold face.
"Yes, I admit, they sent me to approach you and get information from you. You're right, I'm coming clean."
Since he was exposed, Ye Chen simply stopped pretending.
Kong Xi was stunned, not expecting Ye Chen to agree so readily.
"They sent you to approach me? Didn't they say how to approach me? Didn't they ask you to pay some price or something?"
Kong Xi stared at Ye Chen and asked.
Ye Chen stared at Kong Xi, making Kong Xi feel a little uneasy.
"Why are you looking at me? Speak!" Kong Xi rolled her eyes and said.
