Chapter 421 Are you scared?
Besides the uniquely shaped houses, people of all races can be seen everywhere on the streets.
For example, various incompletely transformed demon races, wolf races, dog races, raccoon races, etc. They have animal ears and fluffy tails, and they walk leisurely on the road.
There were also cunning rat demons, snake demons flicking their tongues, colorful bird tribes, demons draped in black cloaks, their entire bodies completely covered, and a walking skeleton, etc.
Of course, there were also quite a few humans walking on the streets.
However, they are not all human cultivators; many are spirits, monsters, and demons, and some are transformed through the Illusionary Beauty Pearl.
Therefore, any creature you see in the City of Ghost Path may not be its true form.
For this reason, Long Chuqing and the other two did not change their appearance, but changed into simpler clothes before entering the city.
Boom boom boom!
A giant, over ten feet tall, with a grayish-blue body and skin as rough as rock, walked towards us.
Wherever he passed, one could feel a considerable tremor.
"Wow...so cool!" Feng Yu stopped and looked up in admiration.
"Hmm?" The giant seemed to hear Feng Yu's praise, and he stopped and looked down at the three of them.
Feng Yu gave the giant a thumbs up: "Cool."
The giant looked somewhat bewildered, tilting his head as if trying to understand the meaning of "cool".
Then, he raised his hand, clenched his fist, and suddenly tensed it up. The veins on his bluish-gray arm bulged, and his biceps swelled up instantly.
“Power,” he repeated in a deep voice. “Cool?”
"Clap clap clap!"
"Wow...that's amazing." The three of them clapped.
“That’s right, cool!” Feng Yu gave the giant a thumbs up again.
Hearing the praise and applause from the three, the giant's face, which was usually as cold as stone and carried a hint of ferocity, relaxed slightly. The corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up, revealing an embarrassed smile.
He scratched his head, nodded to the group, and then left with heavy yet light steps.
Feng Yu laughed and said, "Haha, this giant is quite cute and interesting."
Fei Feng nodded: "Hmm! She's still a bit shy, and doesn't take compliments easily."
The little fox watched the giant's departing figure and said, "Don't be fooled by the giants' tall and fierce appearance and their quiet nature. They are much gentler than many races in the city. If you accidentally offend them, they will at most frown or mutter a few words. They won't really hold a grudge and sometimes they will even help the weak."
"It's easy to see from his actions just now that he has a gentle and kind nature," Long Chuqing agreed.
"Hey...look, look! What's that over there?" Feng Yu nudged Long Chuqing and Fei Feng, gesturing for them to look at the ground ahead, and whispered, "My god! What is that thing? It's so amazing!"
Ahead, a jellyfish-like, viscous creature was slowly wriggling on the ground. Its translucent head was covered with many eyes the size of fingernails, which were now turning and keenly observing its surroundings.
“This must be a marine creature,” Long Chuqing said, pointing to the puddle of water behind it. “Look behind it, wherever it goes, it leaves a clear, wet trail on the ground.”
"That's true." Fei Feng wondered, "But it moves so slowly, when will it ever reach its destination?"
As if in response to Fei Feng's question, the semi-transparent, viscous creature suddenly contracted its body to gather strength.
Before anyone could react, it suddenly sprang into the air with a "whoosh".
The three of them followed the arc the viscous creature traced in the air and looked behind them.
A moment later, with a "thud," the sticky creature landed on the street not far away.
"Wow... I didn't know you could do that?" The three of them couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Feng Yu couldn't help but exclaim, "The creatures here are truly bizarre and wonderful! I've really broadened my horizons today, being able to see the appearances of so many different races. It truly deserves to be called a place where all races gather; its inclusiveness is beyond words."
Looking at the various races moving about on the street, the three couldn't help but marvel. Although there were many creatures in the Southern Region, they were far fewer than those gathered here.
So, among all living things, there are some that look like this? Oh! There are others like that too?
Long Chuqing smiled and said, "Indeed, so many strange appearances beyond our comprehension? We can't help but marvel at the wonders of nature."
While in the heavens, she had perused countless illustrations and written records of living beings in books, but what was described in books was far less astonishing than what she had seen with her own eyes.
The three people and the fox continued walking along the street, attracting many glances, some openly, some covertly, some scrutinizing, some curious, and some purely malicious.
The little fox was trembling with fear and unease the whole way, afraid of encountering the traffickers who had kidnapped him before.
It followed closely behind Long Chuqing and the other two, remaining silent and trying to minimize its presence, its eyes constantly scanning its surroundings warily.
Long Chuqing noticed the little fox's timidity and unease, and she reached out and picked it up.
"Hmm! Are you scared?"
Feeling its body trembling slightly, Long Chuqing recalled what the little fox had said: it seemed to have been captured by traffickers in the city and almost sold to some arena.
They must still be feeling lingering fear.
She reassured her, "Don't worry, we're here! We won't let the traffickers kidnap you again."
"The arena is just ahead, around the corner." After saying that, the little fox buried its head in Long Chuqing's arms.
"The arena?" Feng Yu looked up and saw a magnificent building standing not far ahead.
Isn't the arena a place where good and bad are mixed together?
I wonder if I can glean any useful information from inside.
“The arena!” Fei Feng said thoughtfully. “Should we go in and take a stroll? Maybe we can find some useful clues.”
Feng Yu chuckled upon hearing this: "Hey...you're thinking the same thing! I'm really curious about what it looks like inside, whether it's as terrifying as the little fox described?"
The little fox trembled even more when it heard that it was going to the arena.
The arena was undoubtedly a hellish place for slaves forced to fight, but for those who went in to spend money, it was entertainment and a pastime; the two were incomparable.
Of course, there are also those who are fearless and have the ability to actively choose to compete and earn prize money.
That place was not a place a little demon like it could set foot in. Coupled with the previous incident of being kidnapped, the arena had already caused it a great psychological trauma.
It's best to avoid setting foot there if possible.
But if it didn't follow them, it would have no one to rely on in the city, and if it were discovered by those traffickers again, it would definitely not be able to escape this time.
"Can I not go?" it asked anxiously in a low voice.
"Is that place... really that scary?"
Looking at its trembling body, Feng Yu couldn't help but ponder.
