Chapter 23: Do You Like Me So Much?

Both of them had injuries on their necks yesterday, but these minor injuries weren't serious. They didn't even need a treatment pod. One person's neck had healed, while the other still bore a faint rose mark.

Ji Chenxi smiled, touched his own neck, and moved his lips silently.

Chi Zhuo was accompanied by several people. Before looking at Ji Chenxi, Chi Zhuo had been listening to someone speak, but at this moment, his calm gaze turned dangerous and enigmatic.

This small disturbance alerted the person speaking nearby. He seemed to think he had said something wrong and was explaining things to Chi Zhuo with great anxiety.

After glancing at the person's reaction, Ji Chenxi stepped out of view from the floor-to-ceiling window. His mood, which had initially been quite sour, surprisingly improved.

Upon returning, Ji Chenxi ran into Su Yu, who had come looking for him.

Su Yu was not pleased, "Third Prince, I left you alone for just a moment, and in the blink of an eye, you were nowhere to be seen. I almost thought you had left on your own."

"Why would I run away?" Ji Chenxi asked with amusement.

"Wasn't I worried about our Empire's Rose turning into a runaway princess?"

Ji Chenxi raised his eyebrows slightly, pretending to be displeased. Su Yu wasn't intimidated at all, "Let's go, I'll take you to something fun."

"It wouldn't be something improper, would it?"

"Of course not! We are both respectable people, after all."

Ji Chenxi followed Su Yu's lead, and Su Yu, using his membership card, navigated through various checkpoints until he finally brought Ji Chenxi to the third basement level.

Without Su Yu's guidance, Ji Chenxi would never have guessed what lay beneath the club.

In this day and age, exciting entertainment often involves something risqué, but since alphas are generally proud and arrogant, venues of that sort are less about flaunting and more about not feeling embarrassed to bring friends. If it's not risqué, then it becomes an alternative stimulating experience. Thus, various arenas emerged, and the third basement level of this club turned out to be a hidden arena, quite different from ordinary competitions.

Nowadays, games are almost always related to mechs and starships, and many arenas focus on mechs. However, this arena was straightforward, featuring hand-to-hand combat. Such raw, physical combat arouses greater interest among alphas, especially since many of the underground fighters are quite attractive.

"Want to place a bet?"

"Let's see," Ji Chenxi's interest was lukewarm.

Initially, Ji Chenxi didn't understand why so many people came here, but he soon grasped it. When someone is knocked down, it's a matter of life and death. Under such absolute life-or-death conditions, people can display extraordinary strength, and this life-endangering outburst carries a certain macabre beauty.

Currently, the two alphas fighting in the arena had one whose pheromones smelled like gunpowder and the other whose pheromones smelled like leather. Their pheromones intertwined as they fought, and they seemed eager to kill each other.

However, the spectators were not disturbed by the pheromones but rather were more intrigued by the scent.

"There are such places in the Empire?" Ji Chenxi murmured.

After seeing what the place was really like, Su Yu, initially relieved, became increasingly uneasy. The fights were indeed too brutal.

"It seems you don't like it. This is my first time here as well. My friends recommended it, saying they wanted to come back after their first visit, but I didn't expect it to be so bloody."
