Hearing Li Weitian's questioning from the other side, Li Weitian felt a jolt of panic in his heart, but he quickly composed himself and lied, "Lord City Lord, the Calamity Nether Beast sensed a powerful presence and flew into a rage, which is why it broke free from the chains and got out."
City Lord Li Aotian frowned, feeling no suspicion toward Li Weitian's explanation at the moment. After all, the power Ye Chen had just displayed was indeed too terrifying, and that overwhelming momentum must have startled the Calamity Nether Beast. He knew very well that the Calamity Nether Beast possessed an extremely fierce temperament; once it felt provoked or threatened, it would easily fall into a state of fury. Therefore, it seemed entirely reasonable that the Calamity Nether Beast had broken free from its chains and roared in anger.
However, despite having no objection to Li Weitian's account, Li Aotian felt deeply worried about Ye Chen. He knew that talented as Ye Chen was, facing a taboo beast like the Calamity Nether Beast left him with a slim chance of survival. Furthermore, Ye Chen was still young, and his future was full of infinite possibilities; Li Aotian truly did not wish to see such a teenage prodigy perish in the wrath of the Calamity Nether Beast. Watching the recent match had only deepened Li Aotian's interest in Ye Chen.
