Tang Zichen's Despair

Tang Zichen was sleeping soundly.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes and stood up.

Her pretty face was serious.

Seeing this, Chen Ye immediately knew something was approaching.

"Is someone coming?"

"Yes, quite a few..."

The sound of people walking was completely different from the sound of zombies hopping forward, and Tang Zichen could definitely tell them apart.

While Tang Zichen was sleeping, her ear was pressed against the ground, so she heard the commotion.

After a pause, Tang Zichen spoke again in a deep voice, "We're surrounded."

This time, even Chen Ye knew something was wrong.

However, he wasn't panicked.

With his current strength, unless dozens of Tang Zichens attacked him collectively with alloy throwing stars, they couldn't pose a threat to him.

Were there dozens of Tang Zichens in the Secret Realm?

A moment later.

Figures flickered around them, and people kept emerging from the surrounding grass, coming from all directions.

Tang Zichen was right.

She and Chen Ye were indeed surrounded.

Chen Ye scanned the surroundings, estimating that there were at least a hundred people surrounding them.

The sudden appearance of so many people, surrounding them, clearly indicated hostile intentions!

"Miss Tang Zichen, good evening!"

A young Japanese man said with a smile, "We meet again."

Chen Ye looked at the young man and quickly recognized him as the idiot who had tried to trade them wild fruits for fish a few days ago.

He felt helpless.

Why did these villainous idiots always talk so much?

Couldn't they just rush out and start fighting?

Why bother saying hello?

Didn't they know the saying that villains die because they talk too much?

"What do you want? Why are you surrounding us?"

Tang Zichen's pretty face was extremely serious.

She didn't have Chen Ye's strength, so she naturally wasn't as relaxed.

Just as the young man was about to say something with a smile.

Chen Ye suddenly interrupted him:

"Wait!"

Then.

To everyone's confusion, he opened a box, took out his phone, turned it on, pointed the camera at the young man, and started recording.

That's right.

Chen Ye had brought his phone with him.

Because the Secret Realm couldn't receive signals from the outside, his phone had been off. Now that it was on, it still had half its battery life.

"Alright, you can continue..."

The Japanese youth was stunned and suddenly burst into laughter.

"I know you. I heard you matched with a C-class Hero during your livestream? I admire your courage... Are you taking a video of us to keep as evidence?"

The Japanese youth said with a laugh, "Idiot, only if you manage to get out alive will the video in your hand be considered evidence. Unfortunately, you and your girlfriend are about to be buried here."

Presumably, the youth felt he had the situation under control, so he openly stated his intentions and didn't try to stop Chen Ye from recording at all.

Chen Ye could only describe the youth's behavior with two words...

Idiot!!

Chen Ye didn't say anything, just held up his phone and recorded, slowly panning the camera around to capture everyone.

He was already worried about how to create a large number of zombies to kill!

These people had just delivered themselves.

Since they were the ones initiating the trouble, it would be reasonable for him to use excessive force in self-defense later, right?

"Are you after me?"

Tang Zichen seemed to realize something.

The young Japanese man nodded. "That's right. Every team here represents a country. They, like us, don't want another Ms. Qin to emerge from your Xia Country."

Hearing this, Tang Zichen's pretty face changed slightly, becoming a little paler.

Her gaze swept over the people around her. Many of them were even holding alloy shields, clearly prepared for her abilities.

This was definitely a premeditated assassination!

The target was her!

Seeing the situation, Tang Zichen understood that unless a miracle happened tonight, she wouldn't be able to escape.

She pursed her lips and suddenly spoke, "My companion is innocent. Can you let him go?"

This question.

was rather foolish.

With Tang Zichen's intelligence, she shouldn't have said it.

She just didn't want to implicate Chen Ye, and she was trying her luck.

Originally, she had invited Chen Ye to team up to help him, wanting to repay Chairman Chen's kindness.

She hadn't expected to drag Chen Ye down.

If Chen Ye were to die today because of her, even in death, this girl would be filled with guilt and unable to rest in peace!

As expected, the other side refused...

"I'm very sorry, Ms. Tang Zichen, this matter needs to be kept confidential. We cannot let him go."

The young Japanese man smiled again. "If you choose to give up resisting, I can make the decision to give you a quick death. How about that?"

Chen Ye was speechless.

This short-lived guy was really too wordy!

It wasn't just Chen Ye who found him wordy; even his companions were getting a little impatient.

"Hey, hey, are you guys done talking! Don't waste time, I'm hungry. This woman is my dinner!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Zichen's gaze turned cold, and she looked towards the person speaking.

It was a strong white man.

He was currently looking at her with greedy eyes, a sinister grin on his face.

She decided that when the fight started, she would kill this disgusting guy first...

Then, she took a step back, moving closer to Chen Ye, and whispered, "Chen Ye, when we start fighting, run towards the left. Don't look back. I'll do my best to hold them off and buy you some time!"

Tang Zichen's voice was still very calm.

But this time, it carried a hint of determination.

Hearing this.

Chen Ye was stunned.

He hadn't expected that even at this point, the girl was still thinking about him!

So...

"Class monitor, you haven't really fallen for me, have you?"

Chen Ye said seriously, "Tell me honestly, did you ask me to team up with you because you were lusting after my body?"

Tang Zichen: "..."

The solemn and tragic atmosphere.

was completely ruined by this scoundrel!

She didn't know what to say.

"Clap clap!"

The Japanese youth opposite them suddenly clapped his hands.

"You two truly have deep affection for each other! Unfortunately, my companions can't wait any longer. You two, on your way!"

This guy had definitely studied Chinese culture.

Although his pronunciation was still a bit off, his choice of words and sentence structure were quite fluent for a foreigner.

Just as they were about to fight.

Suddenly, from the left side, a young man stood up.

"Excuse me, sorry to interrupt, but could you all please wait a moment!"

Everyone was stunned, looking at the young man with confusion.

Chen Ye was speechless.

These people really had too much unnecessary business!

"Putichai, what is it?"

The young Japanese man asked in English, frowning.

The name sounded a lot like it was from Thailand.

The youth named Putichai coldly swept his gaze over the Japanese man, his eyes showing undisguised hatred.

"First, I need to correct you. My name is not Putichai, and I am not from Thailand. My real name is Li Zairong, born into the Peninsula Li Family!"

"Li Zhongxi is my older brother!"

As soon as he said this, everyone became even more confused.

However, someone quickly remembered who Li Zhongxi was, and their expression immediately changed drastically.
