Dragon Tamer

Chapter 631: Chapter 633: A Little Bit Heart-throbbing

“Let’s go outside for a walk and see what’s in your dreams,” the Female Dream Master wiped her feet clean, but did not put on shoes, and walked barefoot on the ground.

Just as Zhu Minglang felt a surge of doubt in his heart, the Female Dream Master seemed to know what he was thinking and continued, “The ground in the dream world is spotless.”

Zhu Minglang nodded and walked out of the room alongside the Female Dream Master.

As they passed the Bamboo Forest, what was originally a small courtyard’s bamboo grove seemed incredibly deep, as if there was no end to it.

In the densest part of the Bamboo Forest, there was a dimly lit lantern, and beneath it stood an alluring woman, her hand holding a pen, sketching something. Her blurry side profile was breathtakingly beautiful.

Zhu Minglang’s heart was filled with shock!

My sin, my sin…

“It seems you already have an unshakable beauty in your heart, one you often meet in the Bamboo Forest.” The Female Dream Master laughed as if she had accidentally discovered some secret in Zhu Minglang’s heart, a bit smugly, “Why don’t you go over and do something with her? I can wait here on the outside. After all, this is a dream world. If you walk over and she doesn’t dissipate like mist, then…”

“Cough cough, let’s deal with the important matters first. After all, you charge so high a fee. If I can’t resolve the Yama Dragon’s obsession with me, I might not be able to return,” Zhu Minglang said.

Alright, Zhu Minglang admitted he was a little moved.

He could consider undertaking this kind of special project next time…Ah, Zhu Minglang, oh Zhu Minglang, why are you becoming more and more degenerate? Isn’t striving earnestly in reality appealing, how could you entertain such opportunistic thoughts!

He must quickly find the Midnight Dream Demon and then get rid of the Yama Dragon watching over him!

…

Once outside, at first glance, the Sparrow Wolf Divine City didn’t seem odd, but if one were to examine it closely, they’d notice that the streets ended in a forest, the roofs of buildings always had someone standing on top, lost in thought, and people coming and going seemed to be repeating a certain action mechanically…

When one is in a dream, these things do not appear strange, but once awakened, everything seems a bit absurd.

Wandering aimlessly, suddenly a dazzling divine light shone from behind. The light, as warm as a tide, enveloped him softly, allowing him to feel its solidity and also its soft, elusive quality.

Zhu Minglang turned around and saw those magnificent Holy Towers unbelievably stacked upon one another, and at the highest, an observatory was jutting out. There, a person draped in a Glorious Golden Beast Fur Cloak sat peacefully, with a smile of profound mystery gazing down at him, gazing down at the whole of humanity.

“Uh… that wouldn’t happen to be the Sparrow Wolf God, would it? I imagined his form like that during the day,” Zhu Minglang said, scratching his head awkwardly.

“Let’s just hope the Midnight Dream Demon hasn’t taken his appearance; otherwise, how would you defeat the Sparrow Wolf God?” the Female Dream Master said, her hand on her forehead.

This Dream Master found today’s charmer had a wildly active imagination. Such a dreamworld was no different from stepping into an endless hell; who knew what bizarre and incomprehensible things might appear in his dreams?

Moreover, the dream world is not a closed environment.

It will expand indefinitely with the dreamer’s depth of sleep and might also be like a painting, initially just an outline that gradually becomes more detailed.

Once many things become too real, one may get lost in the dream world, unable to distinguish the real from the dream.

The Midnight Dream Demon would certainly use every trick in the book to disguise itself, biding its time, allowing Zhu Minglang to fill in the details of the entire dream world, all the while letting the dream world expand further. That way, it could gain more information about Zhu Minglang and perhaps even glimpse into his memories.

Though she charged people money and dispelled their disasters for them, the Female Dream Master still diligently went about solving the problems.

“Ahead is a vast field of meteorite craters that form a terrifying basin. Have you been to such a place before, or are you haphazardly piecing together a fake landscape?” the Female Dream Master asked.

On this side of the street, it was a riot of colors, but halfway down, it suddenly turned into another scene altogether—charred, destroyed earth.

Zhu Minglang took a close look and noticed that there was also a brightly lit flower lantern river alongside the street, where countless brightly dressed men and women were strolling.

It was the River Street of Ancestral Dragon City-State, and it was presenting the scene of the Flower Lantern Festival; yet the scene that extended outward was none other than the Crater Basin!

He had combined the Skyfire Meteorite that had once fallen on Ancestral Dragon City with the remnants that rained down upon the Holy Quel Continent… and thus formed this startling picture interwoven with memories!

Indeed, this was a dream world, so bizarre and astonishing, and indeed, it was him—what the hell was he thinking, with all these messy thoughts in his head!

“Pay close attention. The Midnight Dream Demon might also be hiding in some inconspicuous thing in your memory. If this is a scene or event you have seen before, think back carefully to see if anything seriously deviates from your memories,” the Female Dream Master said, shedding her frivolous and alluring demeanor from the Bamboo Forest residence and becoming professional and serious.

Zhu Minglang nodded and watched the people viewing the lanterns.

The people in the dream world were mechanical and repetitive; they overflowed with joy for the beauty of the lanterns, ignoring the huge pits and scorched earth created by the Skyfire, let alone caring about the Crater Basin.

“Hey, big brother, what have you written?” At that moment, a fragrant and lovely girl ran up. Surprisingly, despite having a cute and pretty face, her mouth looked as if it was smeared with poison, bright green.

Fang Niannian???

Indeed, he had bought a lantern with Fang Niannian at that time and had written down their innermost wishes together.

“Unbeatable under heaven,” Zhu Minglang said with a smile to the green-lipped Fang Niannian.

“Hmph, that’s so cliché!” After saying that, Fang Niannian turned around and left.

Fang Niannian disappeared into the crowd in an instant, and Zhu Minglang couldn’t find her no matter how hard he searched.

“What do you think, was there something off about her?” The Female Dream Master stood beside him, but Fang Niannian seemed completely oblivious to the Female Dream Master’s presence.

“Shouldn’t be a problem,” he said.

“But her lip color is odd, and it seems even her tongue is poison green,” the Female Dream Master observed.

“Yeah, that’s the important evidence I’m using to judge that she’s not a problem,” Zhu Minglang said confidently.

Zhu Minglang didn’t head toward the Crater Basin. He believed that if he ventured in, the Yama Dragon would appear again, as it had already instilled fear in him. If the dream world was a reflection of reality, then the likelihood of the Yama Dragon lying in wait there was significant.

“You must have repeatedly seen the same thing in the last few days. There’s a very high chance that thing is the Midnight Dream Demon,” the Female Dream Master reminded Zhu Minglang.
