Bo Yang originally wanted to ask if there was an antidote, but he was afraid that if he asked too quickly, it would be used against him. He could only lead the conversation in this direction as if nothing had happened.
Long Hai said, "Of course you can."
He took two steps closer and the two of them were almost touching each other.
"The rebirth bug is poisonous to the living, but it is good medicine to the dead."
"Why?" Bo Yang was instantly attracted and didn't notice that the two of them were getting closer.
"Because the dead in our city rely on the rebirth bug to live. The rebirth bug absorbs energy so that everyone can move." Long Hai smiled.
This meant that the rebirth bug was indeed spread out from Fire Thorn City.
Bo Yang asked, "How can a living person be cured by the rebirth bug?"
"Only the city lord knows the method." Long Hai said.
Bo Yang looked at the black haired youth in front of him. He was leaning against the Eternal Night Devil with a smile on his face, like he was acting spoiled towards him.
Bo Yang secretly sighed.
The black haired youth suddenly looked at him and revealed a strange smile.
Bo Yang was slightly startled.
The young city lord turned his head and said something to the Eternal Night Devil. The Eternal Night Devil frowned and then nodded.
Then the two of them left the round platform.
Bo Yang wanted to follow them, but the Eternal Night Devil said, "You don't need to follow."
Bo Yang stopped and watched as the Eternal Night Devil and the black haired youth disappeared.
"I'll bring you to take a look at Fire Thorn City." Long Hai suggested to Bo Yang.
Bo Yang saw that the Demon King had already left with the Fire Thorn City Lord and he couldn't just wait. He thought about it and agreed to Long Hai's request.
He was very curious about the legendary Fire Thorn City. The city inside was an existence that couldn't be touched or approached. The people inside were all capable people and the things inside were also very special.
Bo Yang really wanted to know how special it was.
Long Hai brought him around Fire Thorn City and finally brought him to the city lord's manor.
There were guards patrolling around the manor. When they saw Long Hai, the leader quickly brought people over to greet him.
Bo Yang was sure that this group of people were all alive.
However, these people's faces were painted with strange patterns. Upon closer inspection, those strange patterns weren't painted on their faces. They looked like they were carved on their faces. He didn't know what they were used for.
Long Hai introduced Bai Yang to the group of people, and they hurriedly saluted Bai Yang.
Bo Yang nodded and then followed Long Hai into the manor.
The City Lord's Mansion looked like an ordinary palace.
When Bai Yang stepped inside, he found that the inside was completely different from what he had imagined. As soon as he stepped through the door, Bai Yang seemed to have stepped into another space. It was a green grassland. In the distance, there was a huge lake. In the center of the lake, there was a tall tower.
"That's where we live." Long Hai introduced.
Bo Yang nodded and was about to walk towards the tower. However, Long Hai raised his hand to stop him, "Don't go there."
Bo Yang turned his head in confusion. He asked with his eyes: Aren't we going to the tower?
Long Hai understood the question in his eyes. He smiled and explained, "The road here isn't like what you normal people think. If you walk like you just did, you will never be able to get close to the tower."
He approached Bai Yang as he spoke and reached out to hold his hand.
Bo Yang didn't expect him to suddenly grab his hand. He quickly shook it off.
This action was completely subconscious. After all, he wasn't familiar with Long Hai. It was fine for two girls to hold hands when they just met. However, it was inappropriate for two men to hold hands when they just met.
Long Hai was slightly startled. Then, a smile appeared in his dark eyes, "I don't mean anything else. Lord Xie, don't misunderstand. I just want to bring Lord Xie closer to the white tower."
"…"
"Lord Xie, you won't think of anything else, right?" Long Hai deliberately said ambiguously. He tilted his head. His black curly hair fluttered in the wind, reflecting an intoxicating light.
It had to be said that this was an extremely exotic man. It was hard for people to resist his charm.
However, Bo Yang firmly believed that he was a straight man. He wouldn't be charmed at all.
Of course, he did think wrongly just now. It was awkward to be exposed.
Bo Yang coughed and forcefully changed the topic, "Then I'll have to trouble Mr. Long to bring me there."
Long Hai looked at him for a while. Suddenly, he laughed out loud, "Lord Xie, you're different from the rumors. How should I put it? You're very cute."
Cute?
How could he use cute to describe his arrogant Xie Zetian?
Bo Yang deliberately put on a straight face, "Mr. Long, please don't joke with me."
Long Hai stopped smiling and said seriously, "I'm not joking. Lord Xie, I think you're really cute. You're my type. Do you want to consider becoming my partner? "
Bo Yang, "… Huh?"
Bo Yang was completely dumbfounded. It was his first time meeting Long Hai. They didn't even talk much. Why did the topic change to this?
"What did you say?" Bo Yang thought he heard wrong.
Long Hai looked very calm, "I want to ask Lord Xie to become my partner."
"Why?" Bo Yang felt that it was very absurd.
Long Hai laughed, "Our Fire Thorn City has too few people. We can't leave the city for too long. It's not easy to find a partner."
Bo Yang was speechless, "Even if it's not easy, you can't just randomly pull someone in. We just met for the first time today."
Hearing the unhappiness in his tone, Long Hai's smile became more sincere, "Lord Xie, do you think I'm joking with you? I'm being serious. Although we just met for the first time, I know you're the right person. "
Bo Yang couldn't understand, "Why?"
"There are a few reasons." Long Hai's tone was calm, "I just touched your body and found that your body is very special. Adding on the fact that you have the Rebirth Worm in your body, your skills are deep and your cultivation is high. It's very unique. As long as you cultivate with us for a few months, you'll be able to freely enter Fire Thorn City and the real world."
After pausing, he continued, "The second reason is that you're very cute. I like you a lot."
Bo Yang looked at Long Hai's dark eyes and found that his eyes were very sincere.
Bo Yang, "…"
This Long Hai not only looked like a foreigner, even his personality was like a foreigner. He was passionate and unrestrained. He just met for the first time and he already proposed. Did he want to sleep with her the second time they met?
Bo Yang was speechless. At first, he thought that Long Hai was joking with him and was a bit angry. But looking at his expression now, he felt that he might really be thinking this way. The anger in his heart disappeared.
Thinking that he was the one asking for help, he couldn't offend him. He thought for a while and said seriously, "I'm sorry, your request today is too sudden. I don't have any intentions of becoming partners right now."
Long Hai was very disappointed. He blinked his dark eyes. "Could it be that Lord Xie already has someone he likes?"
Hearing this, Bo Yang's mind suddenly flashed with a person's figure. But he quickly slapped that figure away and said calmly, "No."
Long Hai blinked again. "Then I hope that Lord Xie will consider me seriously. I promise that we will be very suitable for each other."
Bo Yang laughed and gave him a nice guy card. "You're not bad. We'll talk about it later."
Who knew that Long Hai didn't seem to understand the meaning of the nice guy card. He was actually a bit excited. "Okay, I hope that Lord Xie will consider it carefully."
Bo Yang followed Long Hai because he wasn't there to listen to his confession. It was too awkward, so he changed the topic. "Let's go to the White Tower."
"Okay." This time, Long Hai didn't refuse. He happily grabbed Bo Yang's hand and pulled him towards the White Tower.
The moment Bo Yang's hand was grabbed, he subconsciously wanted to shake it off, but he resisted in the end. If you reacted too much to a person who was courting you, it would make both parties feel awkward. It was better to be natural.
He didn't know if Long Hai understood his meaning. On the way to the White Tower, he kept introducing him to everything along the way. He was very enthusiastic.
The White Tower was indeed as Long Hai said. It looked very close, but it was actually very far. Bo Yang was led by Long Hai for a while, but they still hadn't reached it.
Finally, they passed by a garden filled with all kinds of flowers and plants. There was a small piece of land that didn't have anything planted, except for a tree that was as tall as a person.
Bo Yang noticed this tree because it didn't have any leaves. It was filled with flowers and fruits. Those fruits were as red as cherries and as shiny as gems. They also gave off a strange fragrance.
Seeing Bo Yang's gaze turn to the tree, Long Hai introduced it enthusiastically, "That is the mother fruit."
"Mother fruit?" Bo Yang confirmed what it was and felt very surprised, "This is the first time I've heard of this name."
Xie Zetian was one of the four young masters of the Demon Realm. He was very knowledgeable. There were very few things that he hadn't heard of before. In his memories, he had never heard of the mother fruit before. He had never seen such a tree before.
Long Hai said, "This mother fruit is very interesting. There is only one in the entire Fire Thorn City. If you can eat its fruit, your blood and smell will be compatible with any species. Many people use the mother fruit to tame magical beasts."
"Tame magical beasts?"
"Yes, first find the young of a high level magical beast and eat the mother fruit. The young beast will think that you are its mother and follow you."
Bo Yang made an oh sound, "That's a bit interesting."
The Demon Realm was very vast. There were some high level magical beasts that lived in very remote areas. Those magical beasts were very strong. If one wanted to tame them, they would have to suffer many casualties. If one had the mother fruit, they could easily tame the young beast and save a lot of effort.
"Do you want it? I can give it to you. "Long Hai asked.
Bo Yang's eyes opened wide, "Can I?"
Long Hai said with a smile, "You are our esteemed guest, of course you can. The mother fruit is precious, but it isn't that big of a deal. Moreover, there are so many fruits on this tree, it's fine to pick a few."
As he said this, he passed through the flowers and walked to the tree. He picked a few fruits and handed them to Bo Yang.
Bo Yang held the pile of fruits like he was holding a pile of cherries. He also wanted to take a bite.
"Can a person eat this fruit?" He couldn't help asking.
Long Hai smiled, "Yes, no problem."
Bo Yang took another one and looked at it carefully before putting it into his universe bag.
He was thinking of finding an opportunity to go there and catch a wild beast to give it a try. The Eternal Night Demon King kept a demon wolf in his palace. The wolf was intelligent and ferocious. It was very eye-catching to ride on it. Bo Yang never forgot about it. He wanted to have his own high level magical beast.
The two chatted as they arrived in front of the white tower.
