Another Demon Emperor?

Wait, isn't this Yanjing?

The capital of the Dragon Kingdom, one of the most prosperous cities in the world!

Yet within two days, I've encountered three Demon Emperors in a row who can perfectly disguise themselves as humans!

This can no longer be described as a coincidence!

Just then, Fatty Han seemed to feel that he hadn't vented enough yet.

He took a step forward, pointed at the beauty, and cursed, "Bitch! I'm giving you one last chance! Either follow me obediently and serve me well, or starting tomorrow, your family's pathetic company can wait for bankruptcy liquidation!"

The beauty's friends had long since turned pale with fear and were backing away.

One of them even tried to step forward and grab Fatty Han's arm to curry favor, but was impatiently shoved away by him: "Get lost! I want her today!"

However, the dark-styled beauty did not yield at all; instead, she cursed even more fiercely: "Pah! You fat pig! In your dreams! I'd rather die than be with a disgusting piece of scum like you!"

Hearing this, Fatty Han was completely enraged.

His obese body suddenly lunged forward, and he kicked toward the beauty's abdomen!

The kick was powerful. With a scream of "Ah!", the beauty was kicked backward, flying through the air.

As luck would have it, she fell exactly in Chen Yi's direction. She spat out a mouthful of blood and then collapsed weakly at Chen Yi's feet, reaching out to grab his pant leg.

She lifted her delicate face, her eyes filled with tears.

When she saw it was Chen Yi, a surge of intense joy erupted in her eyes, and she pleaded weakly, "Mr... Mr. Chen Yi? Save... save me..."

Seeing this scene, Chen Yi practically wanted to roll his eyes.

This 'accidental' encounter was way too deliberate, wasn't it?

Such exaggerated acting!

Was the next part of the script the classic hero-saves-the-beauty, followed by the beauty having no way to repay him but with her body?

Could this trope be any more cliché?

The corners of Chen Yi's mouth curled up slightly. He decided to play along and see where they were going with this.

He wanted to see what tricks these people were trying to pull; perhaps he could follow the trail and find more clues.

With that thought, he put on an expression of someone standing up against injustice. He stepped forward, waved his hand at Fatty Han, and said flatly, "Alright, that's enough trouble. Take your people and get lost."

Fatty Han clearly recognized Chen Yi, and a flicker of fear crossed his face.

But he quickly stiffened his neck again and shouted with false bravado, "Chen... Chen Yi! Don't think just because you're powerful you can meddle in everything! This girl offended me, Fatty Han! This is our private business! We live in a society of law now—do you... do you actually dare to kill me in public?"

His arrogance actually increased instead of decreasing; his acting was slightly better than the beauty's.

"It really is a script! They want to escalate the conflict and force me to act!"

Chen Yi sneered inwardly. There was no way he would just follow their script.

He gave Lei Han a look, signaling him to handle the matter to see how the beauty would react.

Lei Han originally didn't want to get involved in this mess at all, as it might just end up causing him trouble.

But since Big Brother Chen Yi had personally given the instruction, he absolutely had to step up!

Maybe he could even earn a small favor!

Lei Han suddenly stepped out, blocking Fatty Han's path and flashing the badge representing the Lei Family: "Fatty Han! What the hell are you going crazy for? Open your dog eyes and see who this is! You dare to act wild here? It's noisy as hell, you know?"

Normally, even if Fatty Han were given ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare be so arrogant in front of a direct descendant of the Lei Family.

But at this moment, his eyes were bloodshot and his breathing was heavy. He actually roared back at Lei Han: "Lei Han! Mind your own business! This bitch dared to humiliate me! I must teach her a lesson today! No one can stop me!"

His frenzied appearance was clearly very abnormal!

It didn't feel like acting; it felt more like he was being controlled by something!

Lei Han was also taken aback. He felt like Fatty Han had eaten gunpowder today; he wasn't at all like the usual coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong.

But when had Young Master Lei ever been afraid of trouble?

Especially in front of Chen Yi!

"I'm giving you face, aren't I?"

Lei Han stepped forward and grabbed Fatty Han's collar. "Now, immediately apologize to this lady, and then get lost with your lackeys! Otherwise, I don't mind disciplining this worthless son on behalf of Old Man Han!"

As he spoke, several of Lei Han's Contracted Spirit Beasts stepped forward, all of them being Tier 4 or higher.

Their powerful aura seemed to slightly dissipate some of the manic energy in Fatty Han's mind.

A flicker of fear crossed his face. He looked at Lei Han, then at the dark-styled beauty behind him. His eyes were a bit confused, but that inexplicable anger and possessiveness remained strong.

Just then, a very subtle emerald green light flashed in the eyes of the dark-styled beauty who had fallen to the ground.

Fatty Han, who was just about to back down, suddenly stiffened. The struggle in his eyes was instantly replaced by an even deeper madness.

He violently broke free from Lei Han's grip, erupting with strength far beyond his usual self, and bellowed, "No way! She's mine! No one is taking her away!"

With that, he actually swung his fat fist and threw a punch at Lei Han!

"Young Master! Have you gone mad?"

Fatty Han's attendants cried out in alarm, stepping forward to try and pull him back.

Attacking someone from the Lei Family—this was a disaster!

When the time came, it might really only take one word for the Han Family to vanish!

Lei Han was also ticked off by this sudden attack. He easily dodged the weak punch and retaliated with a slap infused with electrical sparks!

*Slap—*

"You damn well trying to revolt?"

This slap made Fatty Han tremble all over. The madness in his eyes instantly faded, replaced by an even more dazed expression.

He clutched his face, looking at the furious Lei Han and then at the mess and the pointing passersby. His mind cleared instantly, and he finally realized what a stupid thing he had done.

"Young... Young Master Lei... I... I..."

His legs went weak with fear, and he became incoherent.

Lei Han snorted coldly and pointed at his nose, cursing, "Useless trash! Get lost already! If I see you acting crazy again, I'll beat you every time I see you! Also, if you dare to retaliate against this lady's family afterward, my Lei Family will make sure your Han Family pays dearly! Scram!"
