With his eyes closed, Ye Chen seemed to be asleep but he was deeply lost in thought, mulling over the need to consolidate the Dark Zone.
The people behind him began to argue, one of them saying, "Shen Bai and Zhao Kun can't possibly pretend nothing is happening. After all, someone is challenging their rules now. If those rules are broken, won't it disrupt the laws governing the Dark Zone that have remained independent from the Wastelands? Wouldn't Yuan Menhai seize the opportunity to take control of the Dark Zone too?"
A man mocked, "Shen Bai and Zhao Kun only care about themselves. They are only concerned with immediate benefits and won't think beyond that. They will follow whoever has power. They used to listen to the bearded man until he no longer seemed invincible, and now they are just standing by, watching the show. With the Third Demon stepping in, they will undoubtedly shift their allegiance back to the bearded man."
