CHAPTER 667: CHAPTER 537 DREAM CITY

"My strength... is at the bottom among the Dragon Clan,"

"Hmm."

"You also have all your skills sealed."

"Hmm."

"The place we are going to is mixed with Dragon Snakes, with no rules whatsoever, extremely dangerous."

"Hmm."

Seeing his nonchalant demeanor, Gjestastav couldn’t help but remind him, "Little Wu, I just want to remind you to be careful."

Wu Xiaode finally snapped back to reality.

He smiled, looking at the Dark Void outside the magic ship, and explained:

"I am now Daville, my whole body exudes his aura as a Boundary Demon, and although I have no strength at all, it’s enough to bluff people."

At that moment, the two were on a small sailboat, following a fixed route, flying towards a location remembered by Gjestastav.

This magic ship was Gjestastav’s personal property, hardly ever used.

She also found such an item based on her memories from long ago.

"What if we need to fight?" Gjestastav asked.

Wu Xiaode said, "The skills are sealed, but I still have equipment, like the fairy’s brooch, and also the Master of Time’s Black Flag—"

"These are all incredibly strong items, so we still have some cards to play."

Gjestastav thought so too and took the opportunity to ask:

"What do you plan to do next?"

Wu Xiaode said, "Acquire more powerful equipment to arm myself, but more importantly, do my utmost to improve your strength—"

"The stronger you are, the stronger I am, and only then will we have a chance to break the seal on me."

Gjestastav nodded slightly.

This man seemed always able to identify the crux of a problem, then solve it with inconceivable means.

Who would have believed that, even though it was a prison, he turned it into the Demon Palace Hotel?

All the Demon Gods gained a considerable income and owed him favors.

—Following him was the right choice!

Gjestastav’s emotions stabilized, and she said softly:

"I will also work hard."

"Hmm, let’s hope everything goes smoothly," Wu Xiaode responded.

As they talked, a Floating City gradually appeared ahead.

Within the boundless Void, amidst the endless darkness, a resplendently glowing city caught their eyes.

The sight was incredibly stunning.

—Yet Wu Xiaode’s gaze drifted below the Floating City.

Beneath that dazzling city, there lay an even more colossal shadow.

A gigantic human head.

The head had its eyes closed, as if it were sleeping, but it had no body, which should mean it was dead—

But Wu Xiaode saw clearly that breath was still erupting from the nostrils of that head.

—The head was alive!

Just a single head, and it was bigger than the entire city!

The head was upside down, quietly floating in mid-air, supporting the entire neon-bright city on its relatively flat occipital bone.

"This is the Skull of Chupnos; the city is constructed from the dreams of Chupnos and is also known as Dream City," Gjestastav exclaimed.

"Is there anything we need to be wary of?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Chupnos is obsessed with power and prestige, and he likes to select entrants based on their status—those not deemed worthy can only stay in the poor districts, and it’s very difficult to leave this dream," Gjestastav said.

Wu Xiaode, looking around at the flying objects that kept appearing in the Void, asked in puzzlement:

"Then why would anyone want to come here?"

"Some people, to survive, have no choice but to stay in the dream, even if it means selling everything for it," Gjestastav said.

By this time, the magic ship had come close enough to Dream City.

A force of teleportation emerged from nowhere, enveloping both of them.

"Don’t resist, we’re about to go in."

Gjestastav advised.

The next instant.

Both of them disappeared.

...

Heaven and earth spun.

The light flashed away.

Wu Xiaode’s feet landed on a lavish carpet, he looked around but didn’t see Gjestastav.

Through the large bay window, one could overlook the neon-lit panorama of the city.

The attendants, polite and courteous, went back and forth carrying drink trays.

The lights were soft, illuminating the entire cabin.

The melodious music was intermittently heard, and the air was filled with a fragrant scent.

People whispered softly in this pleasant atmosphere.

"Sir, what would you like to drink?"

A waiter asked politely.

"This one," Wu Xiaode said, picking up a glass of wine from his plate, nodding politely.

The waiter then stepped away.

Wu Xiaode wore an appropriate smile on his face, seemingly interested in everything around him, yet reserved, not rushing to greet anyone immediately.

Gjestastav had said—

—Chupnos is obsessed with power and prestige, and he likes to select entrants based on their status.

Wu Xiaode swirled his wine glass, casting his gaze around the room.

Gjestastav really was the croaker’s mouth.

This time.

Everyone present was a Cataclysm Demon.

Quite a surprise.

Wu Xiaode continued to maintain his smile, listening intently to the chatter of the Cataclysm Demons.

Suddenly, a round of applause erupted from the center of the room.

A young man in a tailcoat stepped onto the stage and smiled, saying:

"Alright, idle chatter should also come to an end. It’s rare for us to gather together like this, so let’s begin."

"I see that a few friends who weren’t invited have also come."

"So, let’s start with you."

He stretched out his hand and pointed three times into the crowd.

A burly man in leather with dark skin and a bald head.

A woman draped in a dull cloak.

And Wu Xiaode.

"You didn’t accept my invitation, yet you managed to find the place of the meeting. That’s quite resourceful."

"Please share some information as an exchange. If it’s truly valuable, I will allow you to stay," said the man in the tailcoat.

All the Cataclysm Demons looked toward the three people.

The burly and bald man in leather shifted his gaze hesitantly, first glancing at the woman in the cloak, then at Wu Xiaode.

Wu Xiaode stared at his wine glass as if there was something extremely interesting inside it.

The woman kept silent.

The bald man had no choice but to speak first: "I thought I could purchase some information here."

"Of course, you can," the man in the tailcoat smiled and said, "But you originally didn’t have the right to come here. It’s best if you quickly do as I say, otherwise you’re not welcome here."

The bald man hesitated, then mumbled:

"All the devils in Purgatory have fallen into frenzy, it’s said to be related to many years ago when the Purgatory Demon Lord died."

The man in the tailcoat showed a disappointed expression and said softly:

"Get out."

The bald man froze.

An impatient Cataclysm Demon sneered, "Who doesn’t know that the devils in Purgatory are frenzied? They know the person who killed the Demon Lord has appeared in this era, but they still can’t find him—"

"How outdated is your information."

The bald man looked around and saw everyone with a knowing look on their faces.

It turned out that his information really had no value.

"Forget it, I’m leaving."

After the bald man finished speaking, his figure vanished in a flash.

The crowd continued to look toward the remaining two people.

The woman in the cloak spoke, "I really do have a piece of news, regarding the anomaly in the Blood Sea—"

Before she could finish, the Boundary Demons around started to stir anxiously.

"The Blood Sea? Are you sure? If this news is false, we’ll all attack and rip you apart," roared a towering Boundary Demon nearly two meters tall with a dark figure.

"Of course it’s true," the woman in the cloak said calmly, even continuing:

"Heed my words, I only mentioned ’Blood Sea,’ and those who are knowledgeable should be aware of the value of this news. I want someone to trade it for other information, otherwise I’ll leave."

The man in the tailcoat instantly said, "You have the right to stay!"

"So that leaves you," he turned to look at Wu Xiaode and said quickly, "White Bone Demon Worm Daville, your ability to find this place is truly unexpected, please share your information."

The people, still digesting the news about "Blood Sea," turned their attention to Wu Xiaode.

—The pressure was now on Wu Xiaode.

Wu Xiaode suddenly laughed, speaking leisurely:

"I know who killed the Purgatory Demon Lord, how he crossed time to suddenly appear at this moment; I also know what his purpose is."

No sooner had he finished speaking than he saw the man in the tailcoat showing an amused look.

Many Cataclysm Demons also showed a scrutinizing expression.

Exposed?

No, it can’t be.

The fairy’s brooch was quite powerful—

Fairies certainly aren’t trustworthy, but their creations are impeccable in function.

In that case...

It must be that his own information coincidentally intersects with something they knew.

Wu Xiaode thought quickly to himself, yet saw the man in the tailcoat already speaking:

"Daville, what you’ve said is indeed surprising. I’ve heard you’re trying to seize everything from the Master of Cultivation, how is that progressing?" He asked.

"If you want to know, you’ll need to provide information of equal value," said Wu Xiaode.

The man pondered briefly, then nodded and said:

"Very well, you may stay. I’m very interested in your information."
