Hearing Li Aoqiang's questioning from the other side, Li Weitian felt a jolt of panic in his heart. However, he quickly calmed down and lied, "City Lord, the Ferocious Beast sensed a powerful aura and flew into a rage, so it broke its chains and escaped."
City Lord Li Aoqiang frowned. For the moment, he did not doubt Li Weitian's explanation. After all, the power Ye Chen had just displayed was truly terrifying, and that overwhelming momentum was probably enough to startle the Ferocious Beast. He knew very well how bloodthirsty the Ferocious Beast was; once it felt provoked or threatened, it easily fell into a state of fury. Therefore, it seemed entirely reasonable that the Ferocious Beast would break free from its chains and roar with anger.
However, despite having no objections to Li Weitian's explanation, Li Aoqiang felt filled with worry for Ye Chen. He knew that although Ye Chen possessed no ordinary strength, facing a taboo Ferocious Beast like this still meant the odds were overwhelmingly against him. What was more, Ye Chen was still young, and his future was filled with infinite possibilities. Li Aoqiang truly was unwilling to watch such a young genius perish in the wrath of the Ferocious Beast. Watching the match just now had only made Li Aoqiang's interest in Ye Chen grow even stronger.
