Chapter 243: The People on the Other Side of the Mountain
In no time, Luo Yu was already covered in scars.
Facing Blood Asura's frenzied attack, it could be seen that the green feathers on Luo Yu were stained red with blood.
Ten Shadows Slash!
Blood Asura's skill had completely cooled down, and Ten Shadows Slash activated instantly.
Ten crimson figures charged towards Luo Yu.
Luo Yu's eyes showed a hint of panic, hurriedly shielding itself with battered feathers.
Unfortunately, it was of no use.
Each figure slashed twice on Luo Yu, and in an instant, Luo Yu's blood volume was only fifteen thousand left.
Blood Asura controlled its clones to retreat to the side, waiting for Ye Chen to strike.
Swoosh!
With a swishing sound, Ye Chen had already arrived in front of Luo Yu.
Luo Yu's eyes flickered, its eagle-like eyes revealing a hint of fear.
"Thunder Move Three Thousand!"
Sizzle!
Along with the fall of the Thunder Shocking Blade, a thunderous sound echoed.
Luo Yu's entire body was enveloped in lightning, emitting a sizzling electric sound.
Moments later, Luo Yu perished.

After the monster's death, besides the woman at the back, the other four quickly approached Ye Chen.
A boy around sixteen or seventeen smiled and said: "Thank you, big brother, for saving us. My name is Wang Bin. What may I call you, big brother?"
Ye Chen didn't put on airs, smiling as he said: "Ye Chen."
At this moment, the woman also came forward, stood in front of Ye Chen, cupped her hands, and bowed, thanking: "Huang Ningning, thank you Lord Ye Chen for your assistance!"
Ye Chen nodded towards Huang Ningning and said it was no problem.
The other three gazed at Ye Chen with eyes full of admiration and envy.
After all, an LV20 Pet Tamer is not someone you meet casually.
Ye Chen looked at Wang Bin and asked: "Why are you here?"
Wang Bin smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, we are not from here; we are from the other side of the mountain." Wang Bin pointed to the other side of the mountain.
Ye Chen understood that the place Wang Bin was referring to was beyond the mountain, which was no longer the area of Qing County, and could be considered not part of the Seventh Region.
It's named the Sixth Region over there, with Zhe County being the town next to Qing County.
Wang Bin continued: "We live at the foot of the mountain, but it's not peaceful there. Murderers and such were once kept at the mountain's base, and there was a mountain prison holding many prisoners. After the monsters arrived, they escaped, some went to other places, but many stayed there claiming territories, oppressing civilians, and bullying us Pet Tamers. Recently, haven't the monsters above LV21 arrived?"
"They were eager to level up, so they started hunting Pet Tamers. We had no choice, so we ran, having nowhere to go, and thought of coming here."
After hearing it, Ye Chen asked curiously: "Did you come across the entire slope?"
Wang Bin quickly shook his head and said: "No, no, no, we are natives from the foot of the mountain, knowing a small path that's hard to traverse, having to cross a tunnel, but it's relatively close, so we came through there."
Ye Chen nodded, understanding clearly in his heart.
"Big brother, you are amazing, already at LV20, it's really incredible!" Another girl said with little stars sparkling in her eyes.
"Brother Chen, how come you're on your own, where are your teammates?" A boy about twenty-five years old asked curiously.
In this era, age doesn't matter anymore; whoever is stronger and has a higher level is the brother.
Wang Bin slapped that guy on the head and scolded: "Do you even need to ask? Brother Chen is so strong, does he even need teammates? Brother Chen is a Loose Immortal, do you know what a Loose Immortal is!"
The boy who got hit rubbed his head and responded with an "Oh".
Ye Chen watched them, finding this team rather amusing.
"Where are you planning to go?"
Huang Ningning shook her head and said: "We have no idea either; our strength is too low right now. We want to level up slowly and then find someplace safer to stay."
These people are quite decent, at least they don't have any ill intent.
Ye Chen then suggested: "If that's the case, why not join the Star Alliance? The Star Alliance is the only alliance in Qing County, having its own safety zone, which is quite decent."
"Brother Chen, are you a member of the Star Alliance?" Wang Bin asked.
Ye Chen nodded.
Wang Bin said nothing and looked towards Huang Ningning.
Evidently, in their group, all decisions were made by Huang Ningning.
Huang Ningning glanced at Ye Chen, nodded, and said: "If it's no trouble, we'd be willing to join."
In these chaotic times, sticking together is the way to go.
Ye Chen checked the time; it was already 5 PM.
"It's getting late; I'll take you back now."
Huang Ningning nodded and followed behind Ye Chen.
Wang Bin and the other three guys seemed excited.
"Liu Liang, this was indeed the right call; if we went elsewhere, we'd probably still face harassment!"
"Yeah, this Brother Chen is strong, and he's a really good person; our luck is finally turning around."
The other girl looked at Ye Chen with stars in her eyes.
Wang Bin noticed her expression and whispered: "Meng Qing, you wouldn't be falling for Brother Chen, would you?"
Meng Qing gave Wang Bin a glare and said angrily: "So what if I am? Brother Chen is handsome and strong. What's wrong with me liking him?"
"Oh, come off it, you're already twenty-five, and Brother Chen looks just in his early twenties. Stop being an old cow chewing on young grass!"
Though Ye Chen was walking ahead, he could hear their conversation clearly.
Ye Chen wondered internally: "Am I handsome?"
Secretly, he took out a mirror and checked his reflection.
"Hmm, not bad, quite handsome."
Huang Ningning walked behind Ye Chen, unsure what she was thinking as she watched his back.
An hour later, they reached the entrance of the safety zone.
The guards, upon seeing Ye Chen, greeted him respectfully.
Lin Nuoyi and Zhu Qiang had already messaged Ye Chen, telling him they had returned.
They were currently waiting for Ye Chen in the courtyard.
Others who went out were also gradually coming back.
With the boost of the Battle Alliance Token, everyone's leveling up speed had increased significantly.
