After falling a thousand feet, the centipede gradually slowed down and stopped in a deep gully again. This time, on both sides of the gully was a more magnificent square, with jade paving and crystal pillars. More giant centipedes stopped in the gullies, and more people came down from above and gathered here.
This is obviously a central square where centipede trains from all over the place converge.
The one-eyed monster also placed centipedes here, and Lian Youyou and Yun Xi followed slowly. They didn't need to follow too closely because this was underground, there was no wind, and no fast-flowing air, which made it easier to track the opponent's scent. Not to mention that the scent of each monster was different and very strong.
People living in the capital city never imagined that the monsters and demons in the stories circulating in the streets and alleys were gathering thousands of feet below them.
A dungeon has its own rules.
Residents of the underground city are not allowed to go to the surface at will, because doing so may attract humans and disasters, bringing unknown destruction to the underground city.
Those who can go up must have a pass, or they must be nobles with a free pass to the dungeon. And these nobles acted cautiously. They dared to eat Hua Wuyang because they knew that no one would care after the death of a commoner like Hua Wuyang. However, they did not expect that the person who came with this little thief was not a little thief, but someone they could not afford to offend, and after knowing their identities, they dared not offend him.
Lian walked leisurely in the square of the underground city. Since she was not afraid that the man would run away, she might as well stroll around here first.
Here, it was as lively as a street market, with stalls everywhere, selling all kinds of goods picked up from the ground, including women's rouge, men's handkerchiefs, girls' scented handkerchiefs, and men's folding fans.
As we walked out of the square, we began to see small buildings on both sides, imitating the buildings in the human world, with silk flags fluttering and red lanterns stretching like dragons. The chess pieces were also embroidered with wine shops, inns, cloth shops, pharmacies and other shops. Everything that existed in the human world was available here.
The difference is that the shop assistants are all goblins. The goods inside are available on the ground, but those available underground may not be available on the ground.
Lian Youyou walked past the shops with her hands behind her back. The owners of the shops were at least two or three hundred years old. Many of the goods in the shops had become antiques, and many were even quite a few magical instruments.
Lian Youyou raised her eyebrows and looked at Yun Xi: "You Nine Sects are so poor, didn't you spend all your money here?"
Yun Xi smiled, and his smile naturally brought out a hint of coquettishness: "Boss, you guessed right. Most of the funds of our Nine Gates were used by Sanniang to come here to buy some equipment and medicines. The things here are very expensive, so our Nine Gates are so poor that we can only eat steamed buns..." When Yun Xi mentioned that sad past, the bland taste of the steamed buns came up again, as if that taste had been deeply imprinted in their memories.
To slay demons, you can't use ordinary weapons, and it's even more impossible to cure the poison of demons with human medicine. To cure demons, you need magic tools, and to heal demons, you need medicine refined by demons, because immortal medicine is not something you can buy easily here. Immortal medicine is the dream medicine for both mortals and demons.
“But now that we have a boss, we can finally eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks!” Yun Xi happily rubbed Lian Youyou’s shoulders.
"Get away from me!" Suddenly, Heiyan jumped in front of Yunxi, and in the blink of an eye, it had become an eight-foot-tall black cat. The clothes on its body also became bigger, its chest muscles began to bulge, the muscles on its arms became more bulging, and the black cat behind its head began to stretch. In the blink of an eye, it turned into an imposing, handsome black cat man, which immediately attracted the attention of the strange-looking banshees around it.
The black flame blocked Yun Xi's approach to Lian Youyou. He showed his sharp claws, bared his teeth, and a blue mark flashed between his eyebrows. His expression said, "You decide for yourself."
How could Yun Xi not understand? He immediately stepped back and looked at Hei Yan with a smile: "Master Hei Yan, don't worry. I don't have any improper thoughts about you, Boss."
“That’s great!” Hei Yan’s voice became rougher as it grew louder. He narrowed his blue eyes. “If I get a whiff of you, I’ll castrate you!”
Yun Xi was stunned and looked at Lian Youyou blankly.
Lian Youyou suddenly raised her hand behind Heiyan and slapped him on the back of his head: "Don't scare Yunxi, even a blind man can see that he only loves Sanniang."
Yunxi smiled shyly. Only when the name of the person he secretly loved was mentioned, his face showed a bit of immaturity, lacking the fox charm that was originally present in the fox clan.
Heiyan touched his head dejectedly and turned away his cat face.
Lian glanced at him leisurely: "Besides, Yunxi has human blood in him, so he won't be easily aroused."
Heiyan continued to turn his cat face away, refusing to turn back and admit defeat.
Suddenly, Yunxi saw a jewelry store and smiled: "Boss, Lord Heiyan, wait a moment, I'm going to buy a hairpin!" After that, he ran into the hairpin shop.
More and more female demons gathered around Black Flame, and Black Flame became annoyed. He bared his teeth at them and said, "What are you looking at? Get lost!"
Instead of being scared away by his ferocious appearance, the banshees screamed excitedly.
"Ah~~~~~So strong~~~~"
"Brother Cat~~~~ Do you think I am beautiful~~~" The speaker was a female demon with a human head and a bird body. She had just managed to reshape a human face, and there was still hair on her face.
Hei Yan took a look with disgust and turned around, and another weasel banshee pounced on him: "Brother Black Cat! Let me accompany you to have fun!" The weasel banshee's body was full of strong stench.
Hei Yan was annoyed and waved his arms. When he wanted to cast a spell, Lian Youyou grabbed him. Hei Yan looked at her and said, "Let go! I want to burn these disgusting witches!"
Lian Youyou looked at him with amusement: "Didn't you come here to watch me stop killing people? What, you can't help it?"
Hei Yan was depressed.
Suddenly, Lian Youyou glanced coldly at the female demons around her, and her cold face suddenly revealed a bloodthirsty murderous aura like a ferocious monster.
"Get lost!" The low, deep word was like a huge iceberg that suddenly fell into the hearts of every demon girl. Lian Youyou's indifferent expression made all the demon girls who met her eyes freeze. They froze not because they were stunned for a moment, but because of a huge fear that surged from the bottom of their hearts. It was an instinctive fear of the upper level of the food chain, a great fear that made them unable to move.
Seeing that all the demon women were frozen, Lian Youyou shook her hair and glanced at Hei Yan: "Are you still going to be so ostentatious?"
Black Flame seemed to be completely defeated, and suddenly shrank back to its original size, and obediently lowered its head and followed Lian Youyou's skirt. (To be continued)
