240: Chapter 240 A Very Familiar Scene

Chen Yi was already accustomed to this kind of scene.

With a smile on his face, he calmly waved to the crowd.

Occasionally, he would respond to the shouts of his fans, which only caused the fangirls to scream even more.

"Yi Chen! Sign an autograph for me!"

"Yi Chen! Good luck in the Antarctica Secret Realm! We will support you forever!"

"Yi Chen! Ahhh! So handsome!"

It wasn't just the fangirls who were going crazy; many male Beast Tamers and ordinary citizens also gave him enthusiastic applause and cheers.

"Yi Chen! Show those foreigners what you're made of!"

"Let them know that our Dragon Kingdom's Beast Tamers are the strongest!"

"Dragon Kingdom is mighty! Yi Chen is invincible!"

The enthusiastic crowd had almost completely blocked the street.

It took Chen Yi and his group a full hour to struggle through the crowd and reach the commercial district planned for today's shopping.

The rest of the day was almost exactly like a real date!

Tasting desserts, buying new clothes, watching a movie, visiting the supermarket—the schedule was packed!

The only difference from a normal date was that there was only one male lead, Chen Yi, while there were nine female leads, all of whom had top-tier figures and looks!

This scene made countless passersby green with envy.

After playing all day, it was ten o'clock at night when they finally came out of the movie theater.

They had watched a romance movie called "Love of Water and Fire," which told the poignant story of a male and female lead from the naturally hostile Water and Fire tribes who fell in love after overcoming many obstacles, only to both perish in the end due to ancestral feuds and misunderstandings.

The girls were clearly still immersed in the lingering emotions of the movie and were enthusiastically discussing the plot.

"Wuwuwu, it was so moving! They are both living beings in this world, so why can't they love each other?"

"Exactly, is race really that important? Shouldn't people who truly love each other be together?"

"But their families and tribes put too much pressure on them—sometimes, reality is just so helpless."

"I can only say it's such a pity! But I feel that even if they were together, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to find happiness in the future, after all, even just touching each other was a luxury—"

"—"

The girls were having a heated discussion.

However, Black Rose, who had been very lively until now, was unusually silent at this moment.

Her heart was currently churning with turbulent waves.

The irreconcilable conflict between the Water and Fire tribes in the movie, the despair of loving but not being able to be together, the immense pressure from their tribes and positions—every bit of it made her feel a pang of bitterness.

They are both living beings in this world, so why can't they love and be together? Why must they fight to the death?

This sentence kept echoing in her mind.

Wasn't she in a similar situation?

She was the Demon Empress of the Demon Abyss Cult, while Chen Yi was a human prodigy of the Dragon Kingdom; they were destined to be on opposing sides.

She had approached Chen Yi with a mission!

But during this time together, Chen Yi's brilliance and the sincerity of The girls all made her feel an unprecedented warmth and confusion.

She was playing the role of a woman deeply in love, but as she acted, she herself became a bit unable to distinguish whether that heartbeat was just acting or a true feeling that had quietly sprouted.

If—if her true identity were exposed and Chen Yi knew she was the enemy.

Would all this warmth before her eyes instantly turn into the ending from the movie?

Chen Yi glanced at the silent Black Rose and could roughly guess what she was thinking.

It was highly likely that the movie's theme had undoubtedly struck the most sensitive chord in her heart.

However, he didn't point it out, just calmly suggested: "Alright, the movie is over, let's go stroll through the night market, have some late-night snacks, and then go back to rest."

However, just as Chen Yi and his group were passing an abandoned building, an unexpected change occurred!

"Help! Is anyone there!"

"Hehe, you can scream until your throat breaks, no one will come!"

"A beautiful lady staying here alone so late, isn't that just waiting for us?"

"Stop acting so damn pure! With your figure and looks, I don't believe you're still a virgin!"

From deep within the building, the panicked cries for help of a woman could be faintly heard.

Along with the slight, mocking voices of several men.

"Someone is in danger!"

"Over there!"

Seeing this, The girls instantly switched into their Armed Form and, like arrows released from a bow, rushed toward the abandoned building.

Chen Yi's eyes flashed slightly, and he quickly followed them.

Why does this scene—seem a bit familiar?

As it turned out, in the underground garage of this abandoned building, Chen Yi really did see a scene he had seen before.

Three roguish-looking strong men, accompanied by five Spirit Beast Girls who looked like they had low bloodlines and were only around Tier 2, were surrounding a figure curled up in a corner, their mouths spewing dirty words; they were clearly up to no good.

And the person they had surrounded was none other than a foreign beauty with golden hair reaching her waist!

Chen Yi was stunned for a moment and subconsciously glanced at Black Rose beside him.

This script, no matter how you look at it, seems like the standard opening for a hero saving a beauty?

Could it be that the Demon Abyss Cult felt one Black Rose wasn't enough and wanted to repeat the same trick?

However, Black Rose was still in the appearance of being immersed in the movie's plot, seemingly completely unaware of what was happening before her eyes.

She had absolutely no reaction to the conflict here!

She didn't look like she knew about this kind of thing at all!

"Could it be that this wasn't arranged by her faction?"

"Or perhaps, it was another faction within the Demon Abyss Cult that acted, and she wasn't notified?"

"Or is it—that actually, ever since watching the movie, everything has been an act? Just so I wouldn't see any flaws?"

While Chen Yi pondered, he scanned the strong men and their Spirit Beast Girls.

They were all Tier 2, with extremely poor bloodline grades, looking just like the lowest-level thugs who specialized in bullying weak people who were alone; it didn't look like they were organized or had premeditated this.

Finally, Chen Yi's gaze landed on the blonde, antlered woman who was surrounded.
