Chapter 74 Wutan City

Wutan City.

Because it is close to the Monster Mountain Range, it is extremely prosperous. The streets are crowded with people, and many mercenaries set up stalls in the market. Occasionally, you can even see people selling Monster cubs there, but they are all low-level Monsters, and there is nothing of great value.

Yaoyan was strolling on the bustling streets with Caidie at this moment, because women tend to forget their worries when shopping.

The same is true for colorful butterflies.

Perhaps because it was her first time to properly go shopping in a human town, the novelty quickly dispelled her previous shadows, and her originally depressed mood gradually regained vitality. Her eyes became bright again, and she looked around curiously. Her constantly twisting waist and snake tail were extremely enchanting and alluring, exuding an invisible charm that made it impossible to take your eyes off her.

Along the way, passers-by who were attracted by her looked at her sideways.

To the people of Wutan City, snake people are undoubtedly a rare creature. They need to cross the Monster Mountains and go to the Tagor Desert east of the Gama Empire to see them. As for this city, very few people will bring snake people. It is rumored that many nobles in the Gama Empire have the habit of keeping snake girls as maids... This is also the reason why everyone dares to only take a sneak peek.

Yao Yan's dress and temperament don't make him look like an ordinary person. And since he can bring such a charming beauty out, the other party must be an extraordinary person, and not someone that ordinary people can afford to offend.

I'm afraid he was born into a big family in the Gama Empire.

Caidie picked up a golden bracelet from a stall, looked at it for a while, and put it on her wrist. While shaking it, she looked at Yao Yan beside her with a smile and asked, "Sir, does it look good?"

The delicate gold bracelet lightly wraps around the wrist, setting off the fairness of the skin.

"It's beautiful and suits you very well."

Yao Yan complimented him, then looked at the boss and asked, "Boss, how much is it?"

The stall owner was a female mercenary. When she heard this, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes. She smiled and said, "Just give me 500 gold coins, sir."

"Fifty."

Yao Yan smiled and bargained calmly.

He has no shortage of gold coins, but he also doesn't want to be taken advantage of. He dares to ask for five hundred gold coins for a gold chain that doesn't even have a magic core. It has to be said that these mercenaries are very good at raising the price based on the person.

The female mercenary's face froze upon hearing this, and she said in embarrassment, "Sir, this bracelet was found by my man in a cave ruin when he was adventuring in the Warcraft Mountains. It is definitely a treasure..."

Caidie was stunned when she heard that and looked at the other party strangely. There was no bracelet in the cave ruins she had found before. In order to find that cave, the Amethyst Winged Lion King almost ordered his flying monsters to turn the northwest part of the Monster Mountain Range upside down.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be so many cave ruins in the northwest of the Monster Mountain Range.

Yao Yan interrupted the other party and said, "One hundred gold coins to make the deal, otherwise we will leave."

Because of the mask, the female mercenary could not see Yao Yan's expression, and naturally did not dare to judge his thoughts. She could only nod to show her agreement. After all, one hundred gold coins was a big profit for her.

Caidie didn't say a word the whole time. Watching Yaoyan bargaining, she finally realized that the human woman in front of her was lying, just like the young master had lied to her before. She always spoke seriously, as if she was stating facts, making it difficult for her to distinguish between truth and falsehood.

In terms of intelligence, Queen Medusa, who has been staying in the palace of the snake people for many years, is obviously not comparable to humans.

In a sense, the personalities of Queen Medusa and her two sisters are similar, both are stupid... and you can tell at first glance that they have good luck.

After the payment was settled, Yao Yan led Cai Die to the restaurant in the distance. He decided to stay here for one night and go to the capital of the Jia Ma Empire - Jia Ma Holy City tomorrow. As he had guessed before, the Xiao family had not moved to Wu Tan City yet.

Today, Wutan City is controlled by two major families, namely the Gale Family and the Oba Family. The strongest of the two families are Dou Ling, who control most of the markets in Wutan City and are considered to be two local tyrants. As for the City Lord's Mansion, the Gama Empire does not seem to have set up a City Lord's Mansion in Wutan City, which may be related to the geographical location.

Wutan City is located in a remote area and would be of almost no value if it were not close to the Monster Mountain Range.

There are no mineral veins, no important transportation routes...it can't attract the attention of any powerful person.

Caidie followed Yaoyan closely, her hands elegantly folded on her belly, her eyes clear and bright, her red lips slightly parted, her voice soft and gentle: "Sir, do you humans all like to lie?"

"It depends on the situation. Just like when I lied to you, I was just teasing you most of the time, but when they lied to you, it was mostly for survival. They don't have a strong talent for cultivation, no powerful fighting skills, no famous teachers to teach them, and no resources for cultivation. Just staying alive has already used up all their strength. A few lies are just to make themselves gain more and live a better life."

Yao Yan pondered for a moment and sighed softly.

He suddenly thought of a question: if he was born into an ordinary family, how far would he have grown at this age?
It is estimated that it will be very bad. The poor are good at literature and the rich are good at martial arts. Without sufficient resources for cultivation, cultivating fighting spirit is a joke. No matter how excellent your talent is, when having enough food becomes a problem, what does it matter how high your talent for cultivation is? Only when you can survive are you qualified to consider becoming stronger.

This is probably the norm for most people.

Caidie nodded upon hearing this, and looked at Yaoyan with a slight smile, with a little admiration: "Young Master is obviously not very old, but he knows a lot~"

There was a pause.

The topic suddenly changed, and he said angrily: "But, sir, do you think it's fun to lie to me?"

Her beautiful face became serious, and she stared at Yao Yan fiercely, seeming a little angry.

Yao Yan thought about it seriously, and then under the gaze of Caidie, he said seriously: "It's not all for fun. I lied to you to increase your defensive psychology. There are many bad people in this world. Others lie to you because they want to get something from you. Unlike me, I lie to you just to make you grow."

"Really?"

Caidie felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what it was.

Stupid... Yao Yan smiled in his heart and continued calmly: "Let's go, go back and think about it slowly."

After saying that, he walked forward.

Caidie stared at Yaoyan's back, thought for a while, bent forward, and swam a bit like a cobra. She tilted her head slightly and stared at Yaoyan, and asked suspiciously: "Did you lie to me again, sir?"

"Grow up. When you figure out why I lied to you, you will be completely grown up."

Yao Yan looked at her, nodded calmly, and spoke softly.

"I've grown up a long time ago."

Caidie couldn't understand it, but that didn't stop her from being stubborn.

It’s indeed not small... Yao Yan glanced at the proud curve and commented in his heart.

From the perspective of his grandmother in the previous life, Caidie's figure is very suitable for giving birth to a son. So the question is, can Queen Medusa's family give birth to a son?
