"Go!" Ye Chen shouted in a low voice, summoned all four pets back into the pet shelter, and leaped into the rain, heading back the way he came.

Fortunately, he was wearing the Celestial God Set; otherwise, he might not have been able to withstand the Corrosion of this acid rain.

Along the way, Ye Chen saw skeletons from time to time, unsure if they belonged to low-level monsters or animals.

The towering trees were also corroded by the acid rain, reduced to only a third of their original height, and the ground was pitted and uneven.

The scene along the way was unbearable to look at.

When he arrived at the black earth, the scene finally disappeared.

Here it was entirely a thread-like sky state, with acid rain on one side and the black earth safe and sound on the other.

Could it be that this black earth is the boundary line, with one world on that side and another world on this side?

Ye Chen vaguely speculated in his heart.

In fact, Ye Chen's guess was correct; beyond the black earth was the Southern Realm, and to the north was the Northern Realm.

The strength of the northern world was completely inferior to that of the southern world.

This event did not have a significant impact on the north.

When he arrived at the place he came from, the space vortex was still there.

Ye Chen secretly sighed in relief.

Taking one last look at this world, Ye Chen didn't hesitate for a moment and jumped down.

After another dizzying sensation, Ye Chen landed on the ground.

"Ye Chen, why are you back too!"

Xiao Fan's voice sounded in his ear.

Ye Chen looked up, seeing Xiao Fan and a few others watching him from the side.

"Xiao Fan, why are you here?"

"We were waiting here for you to come back. We didn't expect you to return so soon; we thought you'd take a few more days."

Ye Chen rubbed his temples, indeed the feeling of traversing space wasn't pleasant.

Ye Chen looked up, seeing that the previously intact vortex was now flickering in a third of its area, sometimes flashing with thunder and sometimes blazing with flames.

Xiao Fan had already noticed the changes above and asked, "Ye Chen, what's going on up there, did something happen?"

"Yes, when Lan You and the others besieged the Demon Dragon, it damaged the Heart of the Volcano, causing changes in the world above."

Xiao Fan nodded, acknowledging with a sound.

"Hurry! We can't linger in the Second Region any longer!"

Ye Chen had completely recovered, and got up to lead the others toward the First Region.

Seeing Ye Chen so anxious, Xiao Fan couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Ye Chen didn't tell the truth, only saying that he had offended Lan You and the others.

This is the Second Region, the domain of the God. If Gao Yuan returned and reported the matter to the God, the God certainly wouldn't spare him.

The other regions must surely have God's spies as well, and only the First Region was relatively safer.

After all, according to the Supreme, the God wanted to establish his own faction, which surely didn't get along with the people of the First Region. This way, the God wouldn't dare recklessly go to the First Region!

After leaving the Second Region, the group headed straight for the First Region!

The First Region was Xiao Fan's and the others' stronghold, safer indeed.

That night, they arrived at the First Region.

Back at the Law Enforcement Alliance, they could finally rest a little.

"Oh, this trip was exhausting. Not only exhausting, but we didn't gain any benefits; it's truly like losing the wife and the soldiers!"

Ice Seal lay on the sofa, sighing as he spoke.

"Alright, just treat it as gaining some experience. Ye Chen, did you gain anything?"

"Not much, just some materials. Any place with good things had powerful monsters guarding it. Lan You and their team were chased by a Level 84 monster, which is why they split up and ran."

"Level 84?" Everyone was stunned upon hearing Ye Chen's words.

Ice Seal suddenly laughed loudly, "It's a good thing we left early. If we encountered a Level 84 monster, we probably wouldn't last two seconds!"

At this moment, Ice Seal was a bit in the spirit of Ah Q.

Knock knock!

The sound of knocking on the door suddenly rang out, and everyone immediately became alert.

They had just returned, and someone was already knocking on the door, clearly suspicious.

Xiao Fan cautiously approached the door, shouted harshly, "Who is it!"

After speaking, Xiao Fan gripped his sword.

"Brother Xiao Fan, it's me. I'm here to find Brother Ye Chen."

Black Peng's voice came from outside the door.

Xiao Fan immediately opened the door and yanked Black Peng inside, angrily cursing, "Black Peng, you bastard, how dare you show your face here!"

Dragging Black Peng, he just threw him on the ground.

Ice Seal also got up angrily, ready to teach Black Peng a lesson.

Black Peng quickly said, "Wait, wait, hold off on hitting me. I had no choice; I had to do it. I've come to apologize this time, with fifty million Gold Coins as a token of apology. Please accept it."

Seeing the fifty million Gold Coins, the group's anger slightly subsided.

Ice Seal let go of Black Peng's collar and snorted coldly, "Black Peng, you're a traitor, a lapdog!"

Facing the insults, Black Peng didn't retort a single word. One must admit, Black Peng was indeed someone who could endure and adapt, no wonder he was trusted by Kong Xi.

"Speak, why have you come again!"

Xiao Fan shouted sternly.

Black Peng chuckled and said, "I'm here to find Brother Ye Chen!"

Looking at Ye Chen, Black Peng respectfully said, "Brother Ye Chen, Lord Kong Xi wants to invite you over."

"What!" Xiao Fan got angry again, "Black Peng, aren't you content with getting Brother Ye Chen into enough trouble, get lost!"

Black Peng didn't move, continuing, "Brother Ye Chen, Lord Kong Xi said there's something you will definitely be interested in, and that's news about Orn."

Hearing this, Ye Chen abruptly stood up, eyes fixed on Black Peng, "Orn? How do you know about Orn?"

"No, no, I don't know about Orn; I don't even know who Orn is. It was Lord Kong Xi who asked me to tell you this. If you want to know more, please come over," Black Peng said very respectfully.

Black Peng knew that Ye Chen was a Breakthrough and could kill him as easily as cutting vegetables.

One could say Black Peng was pitiful, as everyone seemed to be able to push him around.

Ye Chen's eyes darted around, and he said in a low voice, "Lead the way."

Black Peng looked delighted and acknowledged with a yes.

He understood well, if he couldn't bring Ye Chen back, he would suffer for it!

"Brother Ye Chen, you can't go. What if it's a trap!" Xiao Fan stopped Ye Chen, advising.

"It's alright; even if it's a trap, I'm not afraid of her. Lord Orn is my benefactor; I have to inquire about his affair."

Xiao Fan, knowing Ye Chen's personality, didn't stop him further and just said to be careful, then stepped aside.

Pill Master in the pet shelter said, "Ye Chen, has Master Orn been captured by Kong Xi?"

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be. If Kong Xi had captured him, she would've been doomed by now. Besides, with Kong Xi's current strength, she might not even be able to capture Lord Orn, so I don't think it's her."

Pill Master said okay. Pill Master had a good relationship with Orn and was very grateful to him, so he was very worried about Orn's situation.
