Chapter 224 Framed
It was already late, so Zhou Chen said hello to the monsters and went back to his room to rest. The monsters' favorable impression of Zhou Chen doubled at this time, and after Zhou Chen entered the room, the four of them walked into the same room.

As soon as the door was closed, a demon began to complain, "Brother, that bastard just now was too much. He looked down on people. This is right here. If he were outside, I would tear him apart with my own hands."

"Yeah, even here he shouldn't treat us like that. He's really looking down on us."

"Okay, this is not the outside world after all, just bear with it as long as you can."

"What if you can't bear it?"
"You have to endure it even if you can't bear it."

Zhou Chen didn't know what they were thinking at the moment. Soon after he returned to the room, the waiter brought him the meal. Zhou Chen had instructed them before, so there was no white meat in the meal.

After eating and drinking, Zhou Chen began to practice. After this period of practice, Zhou Chen has mastered 56% of the Nine Nether Mysterious Ice. Although the progress is slow, it is always improving. Moreover, he has been busy with the matters of these two maps during this period and has not had time to get a set of fourth-grade demon patterns. Therefore, his strength has not improved much.

After breakfast early the next morning, the four of them wanted to invite Zhou Chen to stroll around the city, but Zhou Chen refused. He didn't come here to really attend the domain lord's wedding banquet, so naturally he would not hang out with these guys.

After the few people left, Zhou Chen walked out alone. Due to the domain lord's marriage, a large number of monsters appeared in the city, which also made the business of roadside vendors much better. The most popular places among them were naturally brothels.

Zhou Chen would naturally not go to these places, but there were many such places in the city and it was inevitable that he would encounter them. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Zhou Chen would speed up his pace when passing by the door.

The result was that this acceleration directly collided with a young monster in luxurious clothes. It seemed that it had consumed too much physical energy, and was knocked down by a slight bump from Zhou Chen.

"Ouch, who dared to bump into me?"

The lackeys behind him hurried forward to help him up, and the rest of the people surrounded Zhou Chen.

At this time, Zhou Chen's breath was restrained, and he only emitted a faint demonic aura. These lackeys thought that his strength was mediocre, and they pointed at him and cursed, "Boy, are you blind? Do you know who you hit?"
Remembering the reminders from his four brothers, Zhou Chen did not get angry. Instead, he turned around and looked at the young monster who was helped up. "I'm sorry, I was in a hurry just now. I'm really sorry to bump into you."

At this time, the female demons who were responsible for recruiting outside the brothel gathered around, and the other demon beasts on the street also gathered around.

The young monster shook off the lackeys who were supporting him and said, "Get out of here! You don't need my support. I'm not lame."

"Boy, do you know who I am?"
Zhou Chen suppressed his anger and shook his head. Seeing this, the young monster reminded him, "My father is He Shao, the lord of Qiu Ming Territory. I, He Ming, know him now, right?"

Upon hearing the other party's background, Zhou Chen thought to himself "Fuck, he's not an ordinary person." Zhou Chen quickly apologized again, but the other party ignored him and directly said to his men "Okay, I know it, come on, beat me to death."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the monsters present became excited. After getting the permission from their master, several lackeys immediately showed a sneer on their faces.

Seeing that the situation could not be resolved amicably, Zhou Chen stood up straight and looked at He Ming and his lackeys with cold eyes.

Suddenly, several people were frightened by Zhou Chen's look, and then they quickly realized that the guy in front of them was not very strong. They were immediately furious and said, "Come on, beat me to death."

Many lackeys rushed up to punch and kick without wasting time, but Zhou Chen moved slightly, bypassed the monsters and came to He Ming and grabbed his neck. This speed shocked everyone present, and then he slapped He Ming in the face in full view of everyone, and a bright red five-finger mark appeared on his face.

"Hmph, be careful when you talk next time." He then threw He Ming to the ground, pushed away the lackey who was blocking his way, and ran away.

After Zhou Chen ran far away, those lackeys came forward to help He Ming up. He Ming covered his face and yelled at the monsters who were watching the fun around him, "Get out of here! What are you looking at?"

If someone else said this, these people would definitely ignore it, and might even add insult to injury. However, the person in front of them was of extraordinary status, so they did not dare to offend him easily and had to disperse.

After the monsters around dispersed, a lackey stepped forward and said, "Sir, we suffered a great loss this time. Do you want to tell your grandfather and let him kill that guy?"
After hearing what he said, He Ming slapped him in the face. With a crisp sound, the force of this slap was no weaker than the one Zhou Chen had just slapped him with. Immediately, five finger marks appeared on his face.

"Aren't you embarrassed enough as a piece of trash?"
He didn't dare to say a word after being slapped. At this time, another lackey asked in a low voice, "Are we just going to let it go like this?"
Another slap came, "Did I take this slap in vain?"
No one dared to say anything more at this time. They all waited quietly for He Ming's lecture. He Ming directly took out a book from his storage ring, and then the demonic power in his body surged, directly shattering the book into pieces.

"Young Master, what are you doing? This is a gift from the Territory Lord to the Territory Lord of Qiushan. How are we going to explain ourselves if you destroy it?"

"What are you telling me, idiot? Go back and tell my dad that the secret book has been stolen."

After hearing this, the lackey immediately gave a thumbs up and said, "Master, you are great."

"Stop talking nonsense and go back."

After leaving, Zhou Chen wandered around the city again. Unfortunately for him, he ran into Wang Meng while strolling around. If Zhou Chen hadn't run fast, he would have been seen by him.

Although I really want to deal with this guy, I won't do anything for the time being to avoid unnecessary trouble.

In the Territory Lord's Mansion, Territory Lord Qiushan was entertaining a distinguished guest, and this distinguished guest was none other than He Shao, the Territory Lord of Qiu Ming Territory. While the two were chatting, He Ming walked in with his lackeys.

As soon as he came in, He Shao said, "Come and meet Uncle Niu tomorrow."

He Ming hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Nephew greets Uncle Niu."

Niu Qiong, the Lord of Qiushan Territory, smiled and said, "Ming'er, get up quickly and there's no need to be like this." However, when he raised his head, Niu Qiong was shocked and said, "Ming'er, what's wrong with you? Is there some blind person in the city bullying you?"
He Shao also noticed the strangeness on his son's face, "What's going on Ming Tian? Have you caused me trouble again?"
He Ming knelt on the ground and said, "Father, I have not done my job well. Please punish me."

He Shao said in a cold voice, "Tell me, what trouble have you gotten into again?"
"Father, the gift you gave to Uncle Niu was snatched away by someone." As soon as these words came out, the evil spirit in He Shao's body instantly erupted, and the temperature in the room suddenly soared by more than ten degrees.

He Ming only felt a hot breath coming towards him, and the sweat evaporated before it even came out. Niu Qiong waved her hand and a cool air came out, and the temperature in the room returned to normal.

"My people would not dare to do such a thing. Was it done by someone from outside?"
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, He Ming immediately repeated the speech he had prepared in advance.
