Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

"Zheng!"

"Rumble rumble rumble rumble..."

Inside the underground palace hall, smoke and light from the battle continued to rise!

The dazzling light of the skill illuminated the dark underground palace as if it were daytime, and shockwaves shattered several stone pillars in the palace. The sound of soul power colliding echoed continuously in the underground palace!

Nangong Ru twirled her straight sword, then flipped backward, creating several meters of distance between herself and the enemy.

He stared coldly at Grolong in front of him.

Grolong looked nonchalant and relaxed, with his arms crossed and even dusting himself off.

As a powerful expert at the third level of the Saint Realm, his basic attributes completely overwhelmed Nangong Ru.

The attack had not caused him any harm whatsoever.

"Director Nangong, you really are stubborn."

Grolong grinned, looking at her with amusement: "But I like your expression right now, cold, stubborn, resolute, unyielding, and the pathetic yet fragile self-esteem of a weak and backward race... Conquering a woman like you and making you show such a contrasting expression is more interesting to me."

"..."

Nangong Ru did not respond.

This prince of the Western Dragon Clan was even stronger than she had imagined.

If that combo had been used by a human, probably no one could have taken it all head-on without dodging and survive.

However, the weapon used to deal with this prince of the Western dragon race couldn't even break through his dragon-like protective shield...

While its peak offensive power among humans is undeniably insufficient compared to the vast world of all races.

......

At that moment, neither Grolong nor Nangong Ru noticed.

Above them, Night Song sat on a beam in the main hall, legs crossed, watching the battle unfold.

The white-blooded spirit, in its cat form, perched on Ye Ge's shoulder, pondering, "Nangong Ru... why is she here too?"

Night Song: "It seems she also discovered the traces of the myriad races gathering for the imperial mausoleum, so she followed them."

In the game, the Night Watch Chief, Nangong Ru, is among the top human characters in terms of perception, physical attack, and speed attributes.

It's not surprising that she could detect the actions of the myriad races.

Bai Xueling paused, glanced at Ye Ge, and asked, "Aren't we going to help...?"

"Don't speak with your mouth," Ye Ge interrupted her calmly, "Communicate with telepathy."

Bai Xueling was taken aback.

"What's wrong?" Bai Xueling didn't understand what was going on.

Night Song said calmly, "Someone is watching us."

'Surveillance?' Bai Xueling frowned.

The spirit of calamity, perched on the left shoulder, then said: 'There's an insect crawling on the roof to our left.'

Upon hearing this, Bai Xueling cautiously glanced at the scene out of the corner of her eye.

Sure enough, there was an insect lying face down on the roof.

Nightsong: 'That's the scout bug from that Zerg Poplar Ant; it's been following us all this way.'

Bai Xueling frowned.

I see......

"And to our right rear, there's a Heavenly Eye," the crow continued. "That's the power of Venerable Zhao of the Celestial Clan."

Bai Xueling was surprised.

Were they being monitored by more than one person?

"And on my back," Night Song said. "When we parted ways with those myriad races, a gust of wind blew on my back, but how could there be wind in this underground palace for no reason? Actually, the Wind Clan's Holy Maiden left an invisible wind talisman on my back, which can detect my movements at any time."

'...' Bai Xueling was silent for a moment: 'So even after knowing that your level is only the Asura Realm, these people of all races are still wary of you?'

'Judging from their expressions just now, I thought everyone except that Sunwheel Clan boy had already relaxed their guard against you...'

"That's only natural." Ye Ge smiled almost imperceptibly: "You underestimate these powerful figures from all races. They've reached their current position and status not just because of their backgrounds."

'Background is merely a stepping stone to becoming a top-tier expert.'

"You think they've lowered their guard against us, but actually they just want us to think that. None of them have lowered their guard at all. These guys are all incredibly cunning, understand?"

'......' Bai Xueling was a little dizzy from all the confusion.

"Then, shall we go down and help Nangong Ru?" Bai Xueling asked again.

'These people of all races have left surveillance around me, hoping to discover my true strength. If I attack now, it will be tantamount to directly confronting them.'

Ye Ge rubbed his nose: 'Besides, don't forget, I'm currently playing a wanted criminal of the Human Empire, and Nangong Ru is the head of the Empire's Night Watch. We should be in a cop-and-thief relationship. If I go down to help now, won't I expose my true identity? If you're going to act, you have to see it through. Quitting halfway through is so unprofessional.'

Bai Xueling asked in confusion, "So we're just going to watch like this?"

Ye Ge's eyes suddenly lit up: 'Oh, so my Lingling is such a kind cat? Are you afraid Nangong Ru will be killed and want me to go save her?'

"..." Bai Xueling rolled her eyes at him: "It has nothing to do with me. I just thought that from your perspective, you should have gone to save her, after all, she's Nangong Qiuyue's sister."

Night Song: 'Ah, Lingling is now thinking from her master's perspective! My Lingling truly cares for me the most; she's my little darling!'

Bai Xueling: '......'

Ye Ge smiled faintly: "Don't worry, we don't need to interfere. Nangong Ru won't lose to this dragonman."

"Huh?" Bai Xueling asked in confusion, "Are you kidding me? Nangong Ru is just a Celestial Revelation Realm Transcendent Warrior, while that Western Dragon Clan member is a Saintly Ascension Level Three!"

In Bai Xueling's memory, back in the Hundred Souls Forest, when her level was suppressed to the Hundred Souls Realm, she was almost killed by Brian of the vampire clan.

When facing Princess Emilia of the Holy Elf Clan, she showed absolutely no power to resist.

He doesn't seem like someone who could defeat this West Dragon prince at all.

You underestimate her.

Ye Ge remained calm.

In the Hundred Souls Forest, she was killed at first sight by the mechanism of the gene weapon.

When facing the Holy Elf Princess, he could only endure it because of diplomatic considerations.

She is the director of the Imperial Night's Watch.

How could he not have some skills?
