Bo Yang was speechless. He had heard of the rumours of Fire Thorn City in the Demon Realm, saying that the people inside were mysterious and looked weird. Looking at them now, they didn't look weird at all. They just looked like Westerners.
But their hair wasn't colourful, it was black.
He just didn't know which language they spoke?
English, French, German?
Coincidentally, he had dabbled in all of them.
Bo Yang's imagination became bigger and bigger. His thoughts ran wild like the Yellow River overflowing.
"I didn't think that the Demon King would personally come. Apologies for not going out to welcome you." That high nosed and deep eyed Fire Thorn City envoy bowed towards the Eternal Night Devil before looking at Bo Yang and smiling, "Lord Xie has also come."
Bo Yang felt that the Eternal Night Devil was already good looking, but he didn't think that this man's smile wouldn't lose out to the Eternal Night Devil's. That kind of demonic feeling was extremely shocking.
Bo Yang felt that his eyes were blurry for a moment, his heart couldn't help but jump.
The Eternal Night Devil looked at him and introduced, "This is the envoy of Fire Thorn City, Long Hai."
"Mister Long."
Bai Yang politely said, his eyes uncontrollably staring at the messenger. He didn't think he liked men, but he couldn't control his gaze. That man's body seemed to be filled with an indescribable magical power, causing people to be unable to help but be dazzled.
What he didn't see was that the Eternal Night Devil frowned unhappily.
"Mister Long, let's go." The Eternal Night Devil's face was cold.
Long Hai smiled, "Please follow me."
After that, the envoy led the way. The Eternal Night Devil and Bo Yang followed behind him, following his footsteps.
Under Long Hai's lead, the city that they could never get close to was getting closer and closer. The three of them quickly arrived at the gates of Fire Thorn City.
The door was wide open, and Long Hai led them in again.
Bo Yang was very curious about Fire Thorn City, upon entering the city, he looked left and right, imagining that it would be an extremely strange place, but what made him disappointed was that everything in the city was normal. The peddlers were shouting, and all kinds of strange-looking demons were walking around, just like any other city in the Demon World.
He thought that Fire Thorn City would be very hot in the middle of the lava, but after entering, he didn't feel any heat.
What a strange city.
"Are you curious?" Long Hai, who was walking at the side, suddenly leaned over and asked with a smile.
Bo Yang instinctively denied, "No."
He was a dignified Demon Realm Protector. If he acted like a loser, he would lose face for the Demon King.
Long Hai continued to smile. "Take a closer look at him."
As he spoke, he pointed at a nearby stall selling steamed buns.
Bo Yang looked at the stall he was pointing at. He had seen that stall before, there was nothing special about him, so why did Long Hai ask him to look at him?
However, after looking at him for a while, Bo Yang found something strange. That stall owner's words and actions were exactly the same as before. Not only him, even the people who were buying the steamed buns were the same as before.
Bo Yang looked around in shock. After looking carefully, he found that the people walking on the streets were the same as before. They were repeating a certain path and saying certain words, just like NPCs in games.
Long Hai said, "Fire Thorn City is a cursed city, the people inside are not alive."
The people inside are not alive?
Bo Yang stared at Long Hai with a strange gaze, "Then Young Master Long ….."
Long Hai smiled and didn't answer. He turned to the Eternal Night Devil and said, "I wonder why Master came to Fire Thorn City this time?"
Hearing him talking about business, the Eternal Night Devil's expression wasn't so cold anymore. His attitude also became much gentler.
"I heard that Rebirth Gu was first created by your Fire Thorn City, I wonder if it is true."
"Rebirth Gu?" Long Hai thought for a while and said, "Indeed, but we don't call it Rebirth Gu, we call it Rebirth Worm."
"Rebirth Worm?" Just as Bo Yang was about to ask, a surprised shout suddenly came from the side, "Big brother Demon King!"
That 'big brother Demon King' caused Bo Yang's body to tremble. After coming to this world, he had heard many people calling the Demon King by his name. There was Demon King, Supreme One, Master, etc., but there had never been anyone who called him big brother Demon King.
Looking towards the source of the voice, Bo Yang saw a fifteen to sixteen year old youngster. He also had the appearance of a westerner. He was extremely slender and delicate like glass that would shatter with a touch. His pair of eyes were crystal clear, like the purest snow in the snowfield, making people forget about him.
Bo Yang was once again shocked by a person's appearance.
The youngster had a head of soft black hair, warm brown eyes, a round face, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, as if he was smiling all the time.
Clean, crystal clear, flawless.
These three words quickly appeared in Bo Yang's mind.
It was as if these three adjectives were created for boys.
Beside the boy was a man wearing a black cloak with a gloomy expression. He was like a black shadow that stood silently at the side, causing people to unconsciously ignore his existence.
The boy smiled cheerfully and jogged over. Then, under Bo Yang's dumbfounded gaze, he directly rushed into the Eternal Night Devil's embrace. He hugged his waist with both hands and leaned his head on the Eternal Night Devil's chest. He smiled and said, "You finally came to see Long Bing."
If a normal person got close, they would be avoided before they could even touch the Eternal Night Devil's clothes. But this time, the Eternal Night Devil didn't avoid him. Instead, he stretched out his hand and placed it on the boy's shoulder. He said gently, "City Lord."
"Don't call me City Lord, call me Long Bing." The boy didn't give up. He raised his head and said unhappily, "If you call me City Lord, it will make you feel like an outsider."
He was actually Fire Thorn City's City Lord?!
Bo Yang was very shocked.
He imagined that the leader of Fire Thorn City would be a mysterious existence that could even have three heads and six arms. He didn't think that it would be such a delicate and harmless boy.
Even Long Hai was more like the City Lord than him.
Bo Yang stared at the boy who called himself Long Bing as he acted spoiled towards the Eternal Night Devil.
Normally, a fifteen or sixteen year old boy acting spoiled would give people goosebumps. But when this City Lord acted spoiled, it surprisingly didn't make people hate him. Not only did it not make people hate him, it made people want to protect him.
The Eternal Night Devil revealed a smile. Bo Yang had been by his side for so long and could see through his smile. When it was sincere and when it was fake, Bo Yang could roughly tell. So, he was sure that the Eternal Night Devil was really happy.
"Long Bing."
"Big brother Demon King, did you come to Fire Thorn City to see me?" The boy called Long Bing blinked his eyes and asked innocently.
The Eternal Night Devil smiled and said, "You can say that."
"Wa, I'm so happy! Big brother Demon King is so nice! "The boy threw himself into the Eternal Night Devil's embrace and rubbed his head against his chest.
Originally, Bo Yang thought that the boy was cute, but seeing this scene, he suddenly felt uncomfortable. At the same time, he felt that the boy was too exaggerated and pretentious.
Hehe, a fifteen or sixteen year old boy hugging another man, was that appropriate?
Big brother Demon King ….. Big brother Demon King ….. Can you be any more spoiled?
Bo Yang interrupted, "Master, this is Fire Thorn City's City Lord?"
"That's right." The Eternal Night Devil's attention was finally drawn over. He nodded and said, "This is the person we're looking for this time."
It really was the City Lord?
Bo Yang was in disbelief. Fire Thorn City was famous in the demon realm, he didn't expect the City Lord to be such a sparkling and translucent boy.
Or maybe the words sparkling and translucent should be in quotation marks.
Bo Yang said, "City Lord, we came from afar this time to ask for the rebirth Gu's antidote ….."
"Annoying, big brother Demon King just came to our Fire Thorn City, let's not talk about such trivial things." Before Bai Yang could finish his words, the boy interrupted him coquettishly. He reached out and shook the Eternal Night Demon King's hand. "Brother Demon King, the bird you gave me last time has hatched. Shall I take you to see it?"
The Eternal Night Devil actually gave him a bird?
Bo Yang glanced at the Eternal Night Devil. The Eternal Night Devil was still smiling, "Okay."
"That's great!" The boy clapped his hands happily and pulled the Eternal Night Devil forward, completely ignoring the fact that Bo Yang was still in a daze.
The Eternal Night Devil said, "Follow me."
Then he followed the boy without looking back.
Bo Yang stared at their backs in disbelief. When did the Eternal Night Devil become so obedient? What was the relationship between him and the young City Lord?
Xiao Ling secretly said in his mind, "Just one look and I can tell that he's a messy and coquettish little demon. The Demon King shouldn't like this type, don't worry."
Bo Yang: "….. I don't care."
Xiao Ling: "Okay, you don't care, but I care."
The two walked far away and Long Hai walked over, "Thank you young master, let's go over too."
His smile was gentle and polite, faintly revealing a bewitching demonic aura. No one could resist that kind of smile.
Bo Yang also smiled, "Okay."
The shadow-like man in black also floated away with the boy.
Thus, the five of them quickly walked along the strange street and soon arrived at an open platform.
The platform was circular and there was an array engraved around it. A red bird was imprisoned in it. It had a huge body, red feathers, a long tail, a slender body, and a red crown on its head. It looked gorgeous and graceful.
There were three small red birds by his side. They were round and chubby, chirping, and were very lovable.
Bo Yang searched through his memories and quickly recognized that this bird was called Ming Feng. It was a close relative of the ancient divine beast, the Phoenix. It was very rare. He didn't know where the Eternal Night Devil found such a rare bird and gave it to Long Bing.
"Look, aren't they cute?" Long Bing was slightly shorter. He raised his head to look at the Eternal Night Devil, and a cute little dimple appeared on his right cheek.
Damn it!
How could a boy be so cute?
Bo Yang cursed in his heart. Looking at the intimate scene between him and the Eternal Night Devil, he felt that it was a bit glaring. Bo Yang turned his head away and looked for Long Hai, who was standing at the side with a smile.
"Young master Long mentioned the Rebirth Worm. Can you tell me about its origin?"
