Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
The head can be severed, and blood can flow.
Money cannot be short!
This is the survival creed of every giant dragon, the last fig leaf of their dignity. In front of money, the so-called bottom line is just a trace that can be easily wiped away with saliva.
Bai Yao pouted and followed the blue dragon’s gaze. She saw a group of people rapidly carrying a mother cave dragon. She seemed to understand something and said to Bryant:
“Work hard and strive. You’ll have a mother dragon. It’s just a cave dragon. Your requirements wouldn’t be so low, would they? You should at least aim for something like a desert worm…”
“Do you know what you’re saying?”
Bryant interrupted Bai Yao, furious. If he weren’t dragging such heavy stones, he would have pointed at Bai Yao’s nose and cursed.
“Am I the kind of white dragon that eats anything? My bloodline must be guaranteed to be absolutely noble! Not like those white dragons that can mate with anything!”
“You’re roaring at me!”
“No, I’m just explaining…”
“Yes, you are! I’m going to tell Master!”
“No, I didn’t…”
Bai Yao ran away.
Bryant stared blankly at the retreating back of the demi-elf.
He might be doomed this time.
He had to finish the work within fifteen minutes.
Otherwise, something bad would definitely happen.
He might be dragged to a small dark room and mated with a mother flying dragon in heat. This was something that a proud blue dragon could absolutely not accept.
Unless he was paid!
Dragging the heavy stones, Bryant’s gaze gradually became hazy. In a daze, he suddenly remembered what his father had told him.
That was a wise old blue dragon.
He said, “Brat, do you know the difference between a demon and a woman?”
At that time, Bryant was young and ignorant.
He just shook his head.
The old dragon smiled and said, “Demons can negotiate, but women cannot. Demons will clearly ask you for something specific, but women will never say it. If you can’t guess, you’ll die!”
Thinking of this.
Bryant shivered.
He accelerated his pace of work again.
Ordinary female creatures were already troublesome enough. Let alone the fact that she was a High Elf and the King of Winter’s woman. This was simply a double whammy.
…
…
“Your Majesty, where are we going?”
Looking at the surrounding environment.
Yan was a little terrified.
It was fine at first when they passed through the garden. It was full of colorful flowers and birdsong. Now, the surroundings were all cold, high walls, and fewer soldiers. However, their strength was greater than those in the garden, and their killing intent felt like ice blades piercing him.
“To a place where you can sublimate your spirit.”
The King of Winter in front turned his head slightly.
Yan could only see a chiseled profile. He didn’t know if he was mistaken, but he saw a fleeting fierce glint in the King of Winter’s pair of blue dragon eyes.
He wouldn’t chop him up, would he…
Yan’s hind legs trembled.
But when he thought about being a player who could be resurrected, his fear lessened considerably.
Screw it.
Resurrection ability is the best in the world.
The surroundings became more and more gloomy. It wasn’t until he saw several soldiers wearing horned helmets and heavy armor that Yan finally knew where he was.
This wasn’t Winter City’s death row prison?
Everyone locked up inside were spies and death row inmates from other countries.
What did the King of Winter bring him here for?
He twisted his head to look behind him. A group of Crusaders were staring at him menacingly, as if he were about to escape.
Yan was on the verge of tears.
The King of Winter was right in front of him. Even if he grew another pair of wings, he wouldn’t be able to escape…

After being on edge for a long time, the King of Winter finally stopped in front of a prison cell. The cell was sealed on all sides, and its interior was not visible, except for a small peephole the size of a palm on the hard steel door.
Wouldn’t the King of Winter intend to lock him in solitary confinement?
Yan wasn’t afraid of this.
If he was locked in, he would just log off and log back in when the time was up. Even if he didn’t log off, he could browse the player forum for a while. The players there were so friendly, with good looks and pleasant speech. He loved it there.
The King of Winter had exhausted all his tricks.
Solitary confinement was too low-level a punishment.
Yan scoffed at this and relaxed his mind.
“This is the place where you will sublimate your spirit.”
Xi Wei turned to look at Yan, still with a smiling expression. He knew exactly what this player was thinking. This was no ordinary solitary confinement. The solitary confinement in Wang Wei’s poem was not as terrifying as this one.
Yan would understand later.
“You will experience loneliness and solitude here, accompanied by silence, allowing your soul to settle down, and then you will achieve the sublimation of your soul.”
Yan pouted upon hearing this.
The King of Winter’s words sounded quite mystical, but it didn’t matter. As long as he could change jobs after being in solitary confinement, he didn’t care how long he stayed.
He assumed a grateful expression and thanked Xi Wei:
“Your Majesty, I will never forget your kindness!”
Xi Wei squinted and sneered inwardly.
This was just the beginning.
The unforgettable part was yet to come…
He commanded the soldiers to open the prison door.
It was pitch black inside, but it was empty. There was no sudden appearance of a terrifying scene with a gaping maw. This was just an ordinary, very sturdy solitary confinement cell.
Yan also noticed this.
So, he honestly walked in.
The prison door closed with a “bang.”
Xi Wei remained in place and did not leave immediately.
After a moment.
The Blood Rose team arrived with the already “howling” mother cave dragon. The mother dragon had cried and struggled all the way. At this moment, her dragon eyes were red and shining, panting heavily. It seemed the conditions were just right.
“Greetings, Your Majesty.”
Bai Yuekui clasped her fist with one hand and bowed.
The other team members followed suit, but their curious gazes kept sweeping across the King of Winter’s face. Although they had heard of this famous NPC before, they had only seen him from afar. This was the first time they were in close contact with the King of Winter.
As expected, he was as heroic and handsome as the screenshots on the forum.
Most importantly, there was that majestic and noble aura.
Just one glance, and they felt that the young idols they followed in the real world were nothing compared to him.
By the way, this game seemed very realistic.
Did that mean they could…
Several members of the Blood Rose team had active thoughts.
The mission they had just received was to tie the mother cave dragon in heat to the destination. That was their only request, and they had already completed it.
“You can leave it here,” Xi Wei pointed to the ground in front of him.
Bai Yuekui waved her hand.
The team members came back to their senses and brought the mother cave dragon to the King of Winter. Their gazes were stuck to the King of Winter like superglue. After looking their fill, they finally dropped the mother cave dragon on the ground.
What did the King of Winter want with this mother cave dragon in heat?
Could he really have strange fetishes?
That would be too awful.
After all, they didn’t want such a heroic man to actually be a pervert; it would ruin his image.
Fortunately, their doubts were short-lived, and they soon found the answer.
In front of Bai Yuekui and the entire Blood Rose team.
Xi Wei tore open the prison door and threw the mother cave dragon inside.
During this process.
He didn’t forget to reach out and break the steel cable binding the mother cave dragon.
“Boom!” The prison door closed again.
“Feel the sublimation of your spirit…”
Xi Wei muttered to himself, a kind smile on his face.
