Chu Bai was extremely pleased.
Just with the EXP of this Earth War Bear, this trip was worth it.
Even if the emperor’s mission was not completed, he would not lose out.
Otherwise, he would not have come to this Illusionary Mist Marsh.
However, nothing fell to the ground.
“F*ck?!”
Chu Bai was stunned.
No, he was quite lucky.
Even if it did not drop a celestial-grade weapon, it could have dropped a dark demon-grade weapon, right?
Even if it did not have any dark demon equipment, it should at least give him some gold coins, right?
There was nothing!
“What happened?”
Chu Bai was stunned.
Could it be…
Chu Bai looked at Huang Ling.
Was it because there was an NPC beside him?
NPCs did not get any equipment from killing monsters in the game.
Just because there were NPCs around, did the game have to make the players’ worldview collapse when it came to collecting the equipment dropped by monsters?
However, NPCs were images created in the game. Should it be like this?
The games in the past would not be like this.
In the past, NPCs in the game would also drop equipment.
It was really strange.
“How can you keep releasing that power?”
Huang Ling also asked her question in confusion.
“This is a secret.”
Chu Bai said.
Then, he walked to the side of the Earth War Bear and squatted down.
[Ding. Due to the existence of NPCs around you, you’re unable to collect items.]
[Ding. It’s been detected that there are bear paws on the Earth War Bear. You can cut off the paws.]
Chu Bai was speechless.
As expected! It was because there was an NPC beside him.
Strange.
He remembered that when he was in the starter village, the Three-Headed Demon Dragon Emperor led demon monsters to attack the village. The players were below, fighting a group of demon monsters under the eyes of the villagers.
At that time, he remembered that they had dropped equipment.
Why did they drop equipment in front of NPCs at that time?
Was it because they were in the starter village?
He could not understand.
However, Chu Bai did not want to be with her anymore.
There were no equipment drops.
However…
On second thought.
He could provide unlimited control, and Huang Ling could deal damage.
If it was not for her, Chu Bai might not have been able to achieve unlimited control if he encountered a powerful monster.
Two seconds of control. If the monster broke free within one second, Chu Bai would not have any chance to attack.
‘Forget it, I’ll bring her along.’
Chu Bai then raised the God Slaying Calamity and slashed at the Earth War Bear’s paws.
He kept the four bear paws in his interspatial ring.
Huang Ling was obviously going to reevaluate this person called Bai Ye.
Listening to the conversation just now, this otherworld adventurer named Bai Ye seemed to be very famous. He seemed to have passed the abyss-level Tower of Trials. He was the chosen one.
He was indeed a little magical.
“Let’s go.”
Chu Bai said to Huang Ling.
“Yes.”
Huang Ling looked at Lil Xue’er.
“She is…”
“My companion.”
Chu Bai said as he patted Lil Xue’er who was lying on his shoulder.
“Her bloodline is very strong.”
Huang Ling said.
Chu Bai did not doubt this.
However, why did she say that Lil Xue’er’s bloodline was strong?
Just because Lil Xue’er used two skills, she could sense it?
“It should be.”
Chu Bai said.
Huang Ling looked at Lil Xue’er a few more times before walking forward.
“Wuwu—”
Lil Xue’er called out to Chu Bai.
“Oh?”
Chu Bai raised his eyebrows.
Chu Bai and Lil Xue’er were telepathically connected. Lil Xue’er’s meaning was very simple. She meant that the beautiful sister in front of her was a demon who transformed into a human, and her bloodline seemed to be very powerful.
Bloodline was extremely important to demons.
They could sense the suppression from each other’s bloodlines.
“So she’s a demon in human form.”
Chu Bai pondered.
He roughly knew that in this game, monsters such as demons, beasts, and even some special races of the demon race, needed to be at the level of a divine emperor if they wanted to transform into human form.
Transforming into human form was one of the options.
The human form was the most perfect.
However, transforming into a human meant that they had to give up a portion of their power!
Some monsters could not bear to part with their power, so they would not transform into their human form and continue to live in the form of demonic beasts.
For those with stronger bloodlines, they did not necessarily need to be in the divine emperor realm to transform into humans. Some of them were even born as humans.
For example, dragons.
In some cases, a phoenix would be a pet egg, and in other cases, it would be a human.
Thus…
The reason why I luang Ling was familiar with this place was that she was from the Illusionary Mist Marsh. She lived here, so she was familiar with it.
If she wanted to go to the central area, it meant that she used to live in the central area. Perhaps her race was there.
Anyone who could live in the central area was definitely not weak, and she had indeed proved this point. She was not weak.
However, as for why she was sealed, why she appeared in the human world, why she joined the mercenary group, and why the monsters were attacking her, these were all questions that had to be answered.
However, they might not be that important.
After Chu Bai found out that she was a demon, many things were no longer important.
“Do you know where I can find the Breeze Exquisite Tang?”
Chu Bai asked.
Huang Ling paused.
“I do. There are some in the central area.”
Chu Bai raised his eyebrows.
“Can you take me there?”
Chu Bai asked.
“Sure. If we can get there alive, we’ll definitely find the Breeze Exquisite Tang.”
Huang Ling said firmly.
Chu Bai nodded.
“You’re quite powerful, or rather, your background in the Illusionary Mist Marsh should be quite strong. How could these ordinary demonic beasts dare to attack you?”
Chu Bai suddenly said.
Huang Ling was speechless.
She stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Chu Bai.
Chu Bai’s words had already explained everything, indicating that he knew everything.
“That’s right, I’m indeed a demon, but you don’t have to worry. I have no hatred for humans.”
“I believe that.”
It could be seen from the way she treated the members of Storm Mercenary Group.
“I do indeed live here. Furthermore, my name is not Huang Ling but Xue Ling.”
After saying that, Xue Ling took out a red gem.
“I’m afraid of being exposed. I’ve been borrowing the fire attribute power of this fire attribute crystal, but I don’t have the fire attribute myself.”
Chu Bai nodded. “I can understand that. The humans and demons have a great enmity. Even if you don’t have any hostility toward the humans, the humans might not let you off.”
She nodded.
Then, she turned around and continued walking forward.
“The Breeze Exquisite Tang is actually at my place. If we can make it back alive, I’ll give it to you and I’ll definitely escort you out safely.”
Chu Bai’s eyes lit up!
F*ck!
She was indeed a big shot!
“As for why these demonic beasts dare to attack me, 1 told you that only those with a high cultivation base and those from a strong race would dare to do so. Otherwise, they wouldn’t dare because they can sense my aura, and they also know that my bloodline is strong. But my cultivation base isn’t high. If they want to devour me, they can just take the risk..”
