Chapter 1345 Anyway, we've already done that kind of thing...
Red Dragon City, night market.
The lights were as bright as day, and the lights were dazzling.
Night Song and White Blood Spirit strolled side by side through the streets of the Dragon City at night.
The dragon's night market is just as bustling and lively as the human city, with all kinds of stalls lining the streets.
There were all sorts of stalls, shops, snack vendors, sugar figurine makers, and weapon and equipment forgers—a dazzling array of options that left one overwhelmed.
Bai Xueling followed closely behind Ye Ge, her bright eyes curiously surveying her surroundings.
Although she was the empress of the Spirit Demon Clan in her previous life.
But this was her first time visiting the capital city of the Eastern Dragon Kingdom.
The city had a very peaceful atmosphere. The dragon people here showed no signs of wartime tension on their faces, but instead all looked relaxed.
Ye Ge thought to herself, "I didn't expect that even though the Eighth War of the Myriad Races has begun, the dragon people here don't seem to feel any tension at all, even though the insectoids just attacked this city yesterday..."
Conversely, his browsing of the Deep Blue human forum revealed a completely different reaction among the human population upon learning of the war's outbreak. Even before the human empire was attacked, the internet was filled with panic and anxiety, with people hoarding salt, medicine, and food; some even dug tunnels in their backyards...
Ye Ge thought for a moment and realized that perhaps it was because the territory of Crimson Dragon City was very large, and this area was considered the inner city. Although the outer city had been invaded by the enemy before, it was still far away for the people here.
More importantly, the Eastern Dragon Clan has held its position as the third most powerful race among all races for tens of millions of years. During these tens of millions of years, the myriad races have experienced the third to seventh wars, and relying on their absolute strength, the Eastern Dragon Clan has always been the conqueror, never allowing the flames of war to threaten their native population. Over time, the dragon people have become accustomed to the perception that "war does not affect daily life."
Ye Ge couldn't help but smile wryly. Excessive sensitivity and excessive relaxation—it's hard to say which is better...
"I didn't expect that the culture of the Donglong tribe is so similar to that of our Spirit Demon tribe and your human race." Bai Xueling followed Ye Ge, blinking as she looked around the street: "There are even people making sugar figurines and candied hawthorns?"
Ye Ge smiled slightly: "Humans, spirit demons, and Eastern dragons are all races that live on the Eastern Continent, so their cultural circles are naturally quite similar. However, in the Western Dragon Kingdom, the differences would be much greater."
Bai Xueling turned her head and looked at Ye Ge: "Why does it sound like you've been to the Western Dragon Kingdom?"
"I saw it on the Deep Blue system's website. The internet is so advanced these days," Ye Ge casually made up.
Actually, he went there in his previous life as a player.
Bai Xueling: "I see..."
"..."
Ye Ge strolled leisurely through the streets, but his gaze was sharp as a hawk, scanning every corner of the city.
He was still thinking about the Zerg attack...
"Those flying insect soldiers knew perfectly well that if they charged into the city like that, they would definitely be intercepted, but they still did it anyway."
'Although the insectoid soldiers are numerous and their production rate is extremely fast, it's impossible to waste them like this.'
'Could it be that they just want to try it out casually?'
'Impossible... Huanmeng was one of the best Zerg players in her past life; she couldn't possibly make such a basic mistake.'
'And that giant armored beetle monster that spews green mist, something's definitely not right... that green mist is actually non-toxic...'
Ye Ge stood on a high stone step, looking down at the dimly lit streets below, deep in thought.
Bai Xueling was gazing absently at the sugar figurine stall not far away, her girlish heart stirring, and she wanted to pull him over to take a look. But when she turned around, she saw him deep in thought.
"I knew it! You said you were taking me out on a date, but actually you found something was wrong, right?" Bai Xueling pouted.
Night Song: "Yeah, I guess so."
Bai Xueling looked at him: "So, what did you discover?"
"I've felt something was off about the Zerg army's attack a few days ago," Ye Ge said thoughtfully. "They weren't attacking with all their might; it seemed like they were deliberately failing to capture the city. What was their reason?"
Bai Xueling pondered, "Have you figured it out yet?"
"I have some ideas, but I don't know if I'm right," Ye Ge said. "I think we might need to go to the outer city area again to see what happens before we can be sure."
Bai Xueling nodded upon hearing this, "Alright, let's go then." With that, she took a step forward.
After walking a few steps, she realized that Ye Ge had not followed.
She turned around in confusion and saw Ye Ge standing in front of the sugar figurine stall. A short while later, he returned, holding two amber-colored sugar figurines.
"Here." Ye Ge handed the two sugar figurines in her hand to Bai Xue Ling.
The sugar figurines were made to resemble a humanoid spirit catgirl with cat ears and a handsome young human man.
Bai Xueling was slightly taken aback, took the sugar figurine, and secretly glanced at Ye Ge: "Why...why did you buy this for me?"
"Weren't you staring at this for ages as you walked along?" Ye Ge said.
"..." Bai Xueling's cheeks flushed red instantly: "Where...where is it?"
"Have you ever seen a little girl who goes shopping with her father, passes by a toy stall, is too shy to ask for a toy directly, but stares at the plush toys the whole way?" Ye Ge said, "Your eyes just now were about that. Your face practically screamed 'I want it'."
Bai Xueling: "..."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Bai Xueling huffed, "I'm the former Empress of the Spirit Demon Clan! How could I possibly want something that's for children to eat..."
"Then I'll take it back and return it." Ye Ge held out her hand.
"!" Bai Xueling immediately protected him, her eyes widening: "No!"
Ye Ge gave a faint smile.
"...I mean, since we've already bought it, we might as well support the boss's business..." Bai Xueling said with a haughty snort.
"Heh." Ye Ge chuckled. "Then let's go."
As he spoke, he continued walking forward.
At the same time, he naturally took her other hand, the one that wasn't holding the candy figurine.
Bai Xueling was startled, and her body stiffened instantly.
She originally wanted to break free, but Su Yanling and her group of spirit demons were all in this Crimson Dragon City. Who knows if they would run into them if they were out shopping since they hadn't gone to sleep? If Yanling saw them... then... then... then wouldn't it be impossible to explain?
Moreover, being led hand-in-hand by a man on the street, in front of so many people, is really...
However, feeling the heat emanating from her palm, Bai Xueling suddenly felt an irresistible urge to pull away...
'never mind......'
'Anyway, we've already done that kind of thing...'
Bai Xueling thought, her cheeks burning.
