NOVEL NEXT Chapter 377: Hao Sheng's Gift
Ye Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send you the location when I get there."
"Alright!"
After escorting Profound Maiden to the safety zone, Ye Chen returned to the Aggregation District.
Time flew by, and three days passed.
During these three days, not much happened; he just wandered and played with Zhu Qiang and the others, taking a good rest for a few days.
At noon on the third day, Ye Chen and his companions stood outside the safety zone.
Everyone came to see Ye Chen off.
Mo Sang and Lin Jingtian stood at the back, watching Ye Chen leave.
Zhu Qiang, Yu Nian, and the other five stood at the front, looking at Ye Chen with reluctance.
Chen Ruxin stood to the side, smiling at Ye Chen. Although she was smiling, the reluctance in her eyes was still clear.
"Ye Chen, make sure to come back and visit when you can."
"Chen Bro, come back soon."
...
"Yes, I will. Take care of yourselves. I'm off now!"
"Alright, goodbye, Chen Bro!"
"Goodbye!"
"Farewell to Lord Ye Chen!"
A group of members from the Law Enforcement Alliance and the Star Alliance shouted in unison.
Ye Chen waved goodbye and turned to leave.
Two hours later, Ye Chen had arrived in S City and settled down in the Law Enforcement Alliance Province.
A notification had already been sent in the group chat of the Law Enforcement Alliance Province, informing them to gather at the gate at 7 PM.
Hao Sheng also sent a message to Ye Chen, asking him to come to his courtyard after he returned.
After arriving at the safety zone, Ye Chen headed straight for Hao Sheng's courtyard.
In the courtyard, Hao Sheng and a few others were sitting there.
Seeing Ye Chen enter, they stood up.
"Junior Brother Ye Chen, where have you been these days? We haven't seen you," Hong Ye asked.
The others also looked at Ye Chen with curiosity.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "I made a trip to Z City to handle some matters."
"Oh, I see. Are you done with them?"
"Yes, I've handled them."
Hao Sheng gestured for Ye Chen to sit down.
After Ye Chen sat down, Hao Sheng said to Bai Ye, Hei Ye, and Black Tea, "Take them out."
The group nodded and took out some items, with Hao Sheng taking out two.
Hao Sheng handed one of the items to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, this is this month's Experience Potion, the core members receive 300,000 Experience Value."
Ye Chen looked at the Experience Potion and took it in his hand.
This was probably the salary of the Law Enforcement Alliance.
"This is 100,000 Gold Coins."
Hao Sheng also took out a small bag filled with Gold Coins.
Ye Chen did not refuse and accepted everything.
Hao Sheng glanced at Hei Ye, Bai Ye, and the others, who understood immediately and placed the Experience Potions on the table. Hao Sheng spoke, "Ye Chen, it's been tough for you two this time. Before your departure, there's not much to give, these are our Experience Potions, only these can help you. You have five, and Hong Ye four; leveling up gives you a better chance of survival."
Hao Sheng showed a hint of regret.
This trip was extremely risky, with the odds being against them. Watching his disciples risk life and limb while being helpless himself made him feel very guilty.
However, Hao Sheng had already done a lot by giving his Experience Potions to his disciples.
Hong Ye hesitated, "Master, this is not right. You all still need these, we can't accept them!"
"Shut up, take them when you're told! There's no room for argument! By accepting these Experience Potions, you can advance to Level 41, stepping into the ranks of the strong!" Hao Sheng said with authority, not allowing any rebuttal.
Intimidated by Hao Sheng's stern words, Hong Ye said no more and accepted the Experience Potions.
Ye Chen glanced at the Experience Potions; Hao Sheng's were worth 500,000 Experience Value.
Last month's 500,000 Experience Value was also from Hao Sheng, likely his salary from the previous month.
This time, he gave them to Ye Chen again, which meant Hao Sheng went without income for two months.
Ye Chen couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
"Junior Brother Ye Chen, be extra careful during this trip."
"Yes, Junior Brother Ye Chen, be cautious. Avoid taking unnecessary risks; survival is paramount."
"Ye Chen," Hao Sheng said. "On this trip, you and Hong Ye must stay close together. Do not separate, and do not trust others. Outside, you and your fellow disciples are the closest, for in a place without the protection of the Law Enforcement Alliance's laws, anything can happen. To them, profit comes first, and they can do anything!"
Hao Sheng repeatedly reminded Ye Chen tirelessly.
It was evident that Hao Sheng highly valued this disciple, Ye Chen.
Ye Chen nodded and said, "I understand, Master."
"Sigh!" Hao Sheng sighed, a mix of helplessness and reluctance in his voice.
Hong Ye patted Hao Sheng's back, "Rest assured, Master, I will definitely take good care of Junior Brother Ye Chen."
Hao Sheng nodded, "Go back and rest. You have to set out tonight, and it will take at least a night to reach the destination from here. Go and rest."
Everyone could see that Hao Sheng wanted to be alone for a while.
The crowd nodded and left the courtyard.
Ye Chen received a text message from the little girl.
"Brother Ye Chen, can you come and save me? I'm in danger here, and someone wants to steal my things."
The little girl also attached a location.
Ye Chen frowned slightly, looking at the message.
Ye Chen immediately replied, "Wait for me there, and give them whatever they want. Do not engage in conflict."
After sending the message, Ye Chen hurried towards the location sent by the little girl.
The location wasn't far from here; the little girl wouldn't have run far. After all, if she encountered danger nearby, she could still find someone to help.
Fifteen minutes later, Ye Chen arrived at the spot.
The location was by a vast river, about 150 meters wide.
On both banks of the river, many things were growing, including Experience Grass and the like.
This was a place the little girl frequented.
Ye Chen hovered in the air, searching for the little girl's location.
Eventually, 500 meters away from the location she sent, Ye Chen saw several figures.
Six figures.
Five of them laughed heartily at a girl, who was the little girl.
"Don't come any closer! I've already told my brother, he's coming right now!" The little girl's face was covered in tears.
She took cautious steps backward, with Little Huang standing beside her, baring its teeth at the people in front of them.
The five on the other side were all between Level 27 and Level 30.
One of them laughed loudly, "Your brother? What can he do if he comes? You're so weak, your brother must be a useless one too!"
