"Stop!"
A soldier blocked Ye Chen's path with a cold expression. A pair of sharp eyes could be seen under the helmet as he stared at Ye Chen. "Please accept your identity verification!"
This was a necessary procedure for everyone entering the city.
Ye Chen didn't refuse. With a flip of his hand, he took out the Genius Medal and followed the soldier to the side of the city gate. There was an AI identification machine that looked like an automatic teller machine.
As Ye Chen stood in front of the machine, it shot out a beam of light and imprinted itself on Ye Chen's pupils.
"Iris Appraisal: Genius Hall member, Ye Chen!
(Match) "
"Bone appraisal: Genius Hall member, Ye Chen!
(Match) "
"DNA identification: Genius Hall member, Ye Chen!
(Match) "
"Genius Medal appraised: Genius Hall member, Ye Chen!
(Match) "
After a series of tests, they were all in the same state.
The soldier's expression did not change. Like an ancient pine stone, he said indifferently, "Pass!"
Ye Chen didn't pay attention to the tone of these specially trained soldiers. He put away the genius medal and walked straight into the city. Not long after, he arrived at the vast plaza of the Rank 1 Genius Hall. This plaza was paved with white jade and extended into the distance. The blue sky was boundless and made people feel as if they were sandwiched between heaven and earth.
There weren't many people in the square. Ye Chen walked along the guardrail of the square towards his residence. Not long after, he arrived in front of his villa.
As soon as he walked over, Ye Chen saw a few maidservants and guards standing at the entrance of the villa. They were looking around as if they were waiting for something. Their eyes were filled with unconcealable anxiety and uneasiness.
Ye Chen's eyes flashed, and he walked over with a calm expression.
When these people saw Ye Chen, their eyes lit up and they were pleasantly surprised. They quickly walked up to him and said happily, "Master, you're finally back. That's great!"
Ye Chen's expression was indifferent as he asked, "What's the matter?"
These people were exposed and their expressions were a little awkward. They looked at each other in dismay. In the end, the leader of the guards gritted his teeth and said, "Master, the elders are waiting for you in the Deacon Hall. They want you to go over as soon as you return."
"Deacon Hall?" Ye Chen's brows jumped, "What's the matter?"
"This …" The few of them glanced at each other, before lowering their heads and speaking in unison, "We don't know …"
Ye Chen furrowed his brows and was about to leave when a figure ran out of the villa. It was a young man. The young man anxiously ran towards Ye Chen and said, "Master, don't go, don't go!"
Ye Chen frowned and turned to look at him, "Tell me the reason!"
If Ye Chen paid attention, he would find that this young man was the one whose thigh was broken by Hua Longtian. Later, with Ye Chen's help, his injury was healed and his cultivation improved. He had always been grateful. He quickly said, "Master, you must run away. Once you're back, they will definitely know. Run as far as you can!"
When the others heard his words, their expressions changed slightly. The older man shouted, "Little Mo, shut up!"
"You shut up."
Ye Chen clapped his hands and a strong energy burst out, blasting the older man's body away. He crashed heavily into the wall of the villa, and the bones in his chest were broken. Blood spurted out from his face and his face was full of disbelief. His lips squirmed twice, but before he could say a word, his neck drooped and he died directly.
The rest of the people were shocked. They didn't expect that Ye Chen, who usually didn't treat them so harshly and didn't put on any airs, would directly kill him at this moment!
"Speak!" Ye Chen frowned.
The young man named Little Mo's heart skipped a beat. His forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he quickly said, "Master, you don't know. Last time you killed Purple Lightning from the Genius Hall. This person has a life and death friend. He is a member of the Flaming Dragon Palace. A few days ago, he came to you and wanted to sentence you to death!
You'd better run, or it'll be too late! "
"So it's him," Ye Chen's eyes flashed and his expression calmed down. With a wave of his hand, he turned and walked towards the Deacon's Hall.
Little Mo saw that Ye Chen was stubborn and was shocked. He quickly shouted, "Master, don't do anything stupid. You can't beat them. Moreover, that person is from the Flaming Dragon Palace. You can't beat him!"
Ye Chen didn't look back. He slowly pinched his fingers and a wisp of energy condensed at his fingertips. With a slight flick, it suddenly shot into Little Mo's glabella behind him.
Little Mo only felt a heat in his glabella as if something had drilled into his skin. Soon, the scorching feeling spread from his glabella to his whole body. His limbs and bones felt as if they were burning in a hot fire, and there was a slight swelling pain.
He was drenched in sweat and fell to the ground. He gasped for breath, and his muscles twitched slightly. The pain was unbearable.
He clenched his teeth, and his heart was full of confusion. He didn't understand why his kindness was treated like this.
He fell to the ground and looked at the feet in the distance. His eyes were filled with pain, which gradually turned into resentment. He quietly clenched his fists. After a while, the pain disappeared, and he let out a sigh of relief.
"Huh?"
He was suddenly stunned as he felt the earth-shaking changes in his body. He was a little shocked, and then his face was filled with disbelief. "I, I have reached the peak of the Demigod Realm!"
Ever since Ye Chen had helped him cleanse his meridians and bones, he had focused on his cultivation and broken through from the Ghost God Realm to the Demigod Realm. However, the Demigod energy in his body was as vast as a raging river. His meridians, which were originally in the first layer of the Demigod Realm, had expanded to the peak, and his cultivation had increased tremendously.
"Could it be, could it be …" He stood up and felt the changes in his body. His heart was full of shock. He didn't expect that Ye Chen, who was also in the Demigod Realm, could help him reach the peak of the Demigod Realm. It was simply amazing.
He looked at the disappearing figure in the distance and was in a daze for a while. Then, he slowly lowered his head and wiped away the water and tears at the corner of his eyes.
…
The Deacon Hall was made entirely of metal. The doors and windows were all made of expensive materials. The style of the building was also more European, beautiful and elegant.
Ye Chen walked up the stone steps and came to the entrance of the Deacon Hall. There were a few guards in front of the door. When they saw Ye Chen, one of them reached out to stop him. A cold voice came from under the steel helmet, "Show me your medal!"
Ye Chen flipped his hand and took out the Genius Medal.
The guard glanced at it and took a step back, returning to his original position.
Ye Chen walked into the Deacon Hall. The hall on the first floor was brightly lit, and the floor was smooth and tidy. There was no one. Not far away, there was a counter, and behind it sat a few delicate girls.
Ye Chen walked over and showed his Genius Medal, saying, "I am Ye Chen."
When these delicate and beautiful girls heard this name, they looked at each other. One of the girls quickly reacted and said, "Please wait a moment. I will inform the supervisor."
Ye Chen nodded slightly and stood in front of the counter as if nothing had happened. He didn't look around and just looked into the distance, deep in thought.
After a while, a gentle voice came from behind him, "You're here. The elders are waiting for you on the second floor. I will take you there."
Ye Chen turned around and saw a middle-aged man in a leather suit with a gentle smile on his face.
"Let's go!"
The middle-aged man led Ye Chen to the elevator on the side, one in front and one behind. They soon arrived at the second floor.
Ye Chen followed behind the middle-aged man. After passing through several corridors, they arrived in front of a door. The middle-aged man stopped and knocked on the door. Soon, the door was opened by a girl in professional clothes. When the girl saw the middle-aged man, she respectfully said, "Supervisor."
"En!" The middle-aged man nodded and looked at Ye Chen. He smiled and said, "Come in."
Ye Chen's expression was the same as usual. No one could tell what he was thinking as he followed the middle-aged man in.
When they entered, the delicate girl secretly glanced at Ye Chen with curiosity in her eyes.
This room was very spacious. It was about two to three hundred square meters. There was a round wooden table in the room. Beside it were soft sofas with metal bases. Behind these sofas stood many slender and beautiful girls.
Ye Chen glanced around and saw a total of nine figures sitting on the sofa. Eight of them were wearing similar uniforms. They were leaning against the sofa, holding wine glasses and chatting casually with each other. There was a beautiful girl massaging them behind, but there was a hint of melancholy in the depths of their eyes.
Among them, there was a man in white who was the most eye-catching. He was sitting on the largest sofa, leaning against it naturally and casually. Behind him were two beautiful girls who were gently massaging his shoulders. His feet were propped up on the table as he looked at the ceiling, seemingly thinking about something.
Ye Chen's arrival attracted everyone's attention. The eight men and women in similar uniforms, old and young, all looked over. They frowned and their expressions were somewhat gloomy.
As for the white clothed man, he seemed to have come back to his senses. He slowly lowered his eyes and looked down at Ye Chen. His expression was so indifferent that it did not contain a trace of emotion. His eyes were not cold, but revealed a ruthless expression.
"You're finally back."
A feminine-looking man reclined on the sofa and glanced at Ye Chen. His tone was cold and indifferent.
Ye Chen walked in front of the crowd. Facing the gazes of the crowd, his expression remained calm as he said: "I wonder why the elders have called me over?"
"What is it?"
A tall and sturdy man at the side raised his eyebrows and sneered: "You still don't know what crime you've committed?"
"Guilty?" Ye Chen's expression was indifferent as he looked at him. "I'm guilty?"
"Cut the crap. Kneel down and kowtow first. Apologize to this Hua Zhan from the Fire Dragon Palace!" A white-haired old man with a long beard shouted with a gloomy expression.
