Looking back, it was all like a fairyland.

The City God also understood Cao Chen's answer.

Since the old goat wanted to delay, it was impossible to decide the outcome so quickly. It would be a seesaw battle. He remembered that the old goat had said that the battle would be over by the beginning of next spring.

At that time, the other party's tone was very affirmative and confident.

He could probably guess, but he didn't say much.

"Aren't you going to take a rest?" the City God asked, pointing to Cao Chen's tattered robes.

Cao Chen shook his head and just waited here.

Hearing this, the City God stopped trying to persuade them. The two of them fell silent again, then looked in one direction. The space there began to distort, becoming bizarre and shimmering.

Amidst this bizarre light, the two heard the sound of a suona, a tune somewhere between joy and sorrow. It was a dull, flat tune, like the revelry of a group of beginners.

There is no coordination and the talk is completely irrelevant.

The people playing the suona were no, they were a group of otters dressed in clothes. Some of these otters were playing random tunes in front, some were carrying a sedan chair in the middle, and the last ones were holding up large flags with a big "Dream" written on them.

This group of otters is very noisy and chatters endlessly.

There was a person sitting in the sedan chair, slumped on a silk cushion, looking extremely lazy, as if he had not woken up yet. He picked up a grape and put it into his mouth.

Upon seeing Cao Chen and the City God, she licked her lips, revealing a seductive smile. She was a woman, who, by worldly standards, would be considered extremely wanton. Her clothes, half-concealing and half-undressed, hung loosely on her body; the word "clothing" was inappropriate. Her skin was fair, and her face was flawless. Her long black hair cascaded down like a roll of silk, making her almost inhumanly beautiful.

"Wow, it's really lively here."

However, her casual words were quickly drowned out by the noisy little demons. She enjoyed the lively atmosphere, but in order to communicate normally, she still knocked on the sedan chair.

The noisy sound stopped in an instant.

"What's with those expressions, you two? Stunned by my beauty? No need for that." He then burst into laughter, his body trembling with mirth. If it weren't for those insane words, it might have been a truly beautiful scene.

"Who are you?" The City God's brow remained furrowed. Lately, all sorts of people were flocking here; he could guess who this person was.

In his conversation with the old goat, he knew that he was the third pick.

This must be the second pick.

"You know perfectly well what I'm asking. Didn't the goat tell you?" The woman shook her head, a smile playing on her lips. "I just came to take a look. Looks like you've got some good skills."

The woman looked up and saw the space directly.

But I didn't explore it too much.

"You've said it, aren't you going to help?" the City God asked with a smile.

"I'd like to too, but that stubborn old goat doesn't seem to appreciate it, so I condescended to come and take a look. How can I put it? No wonder it's worthy of being that person's mount."

The woman's eyes were full of admiration.

"A mount?" Cao Chen looked at the woman, his eyes filled with surprise. "That young man before was..." he blurted out unconsciously.

Then the woman looked over, but it was unclear whether she was looking at him or not; her gaze was unfocused, and she casually said, "The Immortal Venerable's mount."

Cao Chen almost bit off his tongue.

The woman didn't seem to intend to answer, and laughed, "Looks like I was overthinking it; these methods are all from the same lineage."

Seeing that the woman had no intention of leaving, the City God stared at her.

"Don't be so nervous. Yu Jiang isn't easy to deal with. My presence here at least keeps things under control. Otherwise, if that space breaks, you and I might not have time to prepare, and Jiading Prefecture might be reduced to ashes in the aftershocks."

"I'm such a good person."

The woman laughed to herself, not caring about the occasion. She tapped the sedan lightly with her fingers, and the otters, as if receiving a signal, began playing their instruments and singing once more.

The City God and Cao Chen were speechless.

"Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone, why bother with a gloomy face?" the woman said calmly, enjoying the lively atmosphere.

The City God couldn't say anything. After all, he was there to help, and it would be hard to offend him. Cao Chen was probably the weakest of the three, and the weak had no say.

Neither of them said anything, but someone spoke out.

"What a load of crap! You're just being noisy and your sophistry hasn't changed at all." A cold voice rang out from the side.

As soon as these words were spoken, the otter playing the suona opened his eyes wide, and the suona suddenly made seventeen or eighteen bends and flew into the sky.

The City God's expression changed. Internal strife at this time? He didn't look at the person who came first, but looked at the woman who suddenly appeared.

Sure enough, the woman's face plummeted to rock bottom, becoming icy cold, without a trace of a smile, as she coldly stared at the newcomer.

Cao Chen also looked at the person who came. He was a handsome young man. There was a hint of sarcasm on his face as he looked at the woman.

After a moment of stunned silence, the woman retorted sarcastically, "Who do we have here? What right do you have to talk to me like that? Why aren't you staying in your damn jade palace? Why are you out here..."

After saying that, she shut up, because she knew Old Goat and Su Mu, and naturally knew about the Mirage Dragon following behind Su Mu.

"Speak up... why did you stop... can't continue? Seriously, if Su Mu hadn't gone into seclusion, and I hadn't, we would have already ganged up on you. You actually have the sense that sharing joy is worse than enjoying it alone, I admire you for that." Shenlong shook his folding fan and laughed.

"You!!!" The Dream Eater was furious and grabbed a handful of grapes from the side, throwing them at the Mirage Dragon.

However, the grapes froze in front of the mirage dragon. He reached out and plucked one, saying, "Thank you for the treat, but I don't like grapes; I prefer berries."

As soon as he finished speaking, the grape in his hand turned into a wild strawberry. He put the wild strawberry into his mouth, and it tasted sour and sweet. The other grapes turned into petals and disappeared on the spot.

"You..."

Meng Mo raised her eyebrows. She knew very well that this understated action was a show-off.

"You found out? I told you, I'm in seclusion, otherwise the old goat wouldn't be standing in front of me. Yu Jiang? Wasn't he cut into many pieces and thrown all over the world? Instead of recovering properly, why are you coming here to die?"

However, the Dream Eater wasn't swayed by the Mirage Dragon's attempt to steer the conversation away. Instead, it stared intently at him, gritting its teeth as it said, "Have you been to the Ghost Market in the Netherworld?"

Otherwise, she couldn't understand why this guy could grow against the current when the world had not yet recovered.
