Chapter 44 Dreamland Tavern

When the remnants of the evil gods secretly sneaked into the mountain capital, Zhang Xiaodao, who was far away on the other side of the gray realm, also encountered some troubles.

Her name is Catherine in the Gray Realm, and she looks completely different from the one on Aquamarine. She has short hair and gives people a very capable look.

Zhang Xiaodao, who came to the Scarlet Flame Empire, was not as lucky as Su Xueqi, and became a member of the blood family directly, even though the Burton family was just a small, declining blood family, and Su Xueqi was only a collateral descendant.

But this is already a very lucky start. Like Zhang Xiaodao, her identity in Gray Realm was originally just a helper in a shop.

He has no background and is just an ordinary person.

The encounter with her master, the bear, gave her more choices, but she also had a conflict with the gentlemen's club and was hunted down to this day.

Blessings are where disasters depend, misfortunes are where blessings depend.

To this day, she no longer cares about gains or losses. Her biggest obsession is to avenge her master, nothing more.

Her greatest hope now is undoubtedly Rorschach's promise.

But before that, she first had to escape the pursuit of the Gentlemen's Club in the Gray Realm.

Unlike on Aquamarine, the Gentlemen's Club has very little power in Great Yan, so Gao Tianlin is still a bigger threat.

Other senior executives definitely don’t want to set foot in Dayan unless necessary.

But it's different in the Gray Territory. The Gentlemen's Club's headquarters in the Gray Territory is in the Red Flame Empire!

Especially the current boss of the Gentlemen’s Club, the First Gentleman, has arrived in the Red Flame Empire. Although few people know his identity in the Gray Realm, as one of the few Silver Knights of Aquablue Star, the First Gentleman is in the Red Flame Empire.

The identity of the empire must be extraordinary.

You know, even in the Gray Realm, Silver Knights are not everywhere, and no Silver Knight is just an ordinary person.

Luo Xia and the others had guessed when they exchanged information before that Zhang Xiaodao's wanted order was most likely related to the first gentleman.

But these are not what Zhang Xiaodao needs to consider right now, because for her, the most important thing now is to survive this replacement first.

Only by truly becoming a mysterious servant can she break the predicament and have the hope of revenge for her master, the Bear!

But her current situation is indeed not good.

Because she had just been offered a reward not long ago, her wanted poster is now hanging in the most conspicuous place in Cuckoo City, where everyone can see it.

In addition, the gentlemen's club should be able to roughly confirm that she is in the nearby area, even if she is not in Cuckoo City, she is in two nearby small towns.

These three cities are like a dragnet to her.

She could clearly feel that there had been some external search forces in Cuckoo City recently, and these were most likely people from the Gentlemen's Club.

She is not a native resident of Cuckoo City. If the other party continues to search like this, she will be found sooner or later.

She had no doubt of this.

"The Land of Dreams in the West of the City..." Zhang Xiaodao had already memorized this name by heart before the replacement started.

She came to the west of the city not long after returning to the Gray Realm. She just made some inquiries and quickly found the tavern called Dream Country.

This is just an ordinary-looking tavern, and its business is mediocre.

Even after Zhang Xiaodao walked into the tavern, no one took the initiative to entertain her. Everything seemed so unreliable.

So much so that she even doubted whether Su Xueqi had made a mistake.

But after coming, she definitely couldn't leave like this. Following the method taught by Su Xueqi, she took the initiative to walk to the bar of the tavern.

The owner of the tavern was a middle-aged man who looked a little slovenly. He poured himself a glass of wine and drank alone while eating fried fish.

Even when he saw the customer Zhang Xiaodao coming forward, he had no intention of putting down his wine glass and asked with a mouth full of oil:

"What to drink?"

"I want a cup of drunkenness." Zhang Xiaodao whispered.

"Huh?" The tavern owner obviously didn't expect Zhang Xiaodao's answer to be this. He immediately put down the wine glass in his hand and the half-eaten fried fish, wiped his hands on his body, and then smiled, "Why is it you?

This girl, I almost didn’t recognize her, why didn’t she tell her in advance that she was coming to play here?”

An old drunkard not far away saw this scene and joked, "Could it be your illegitimate daughter, Barton?"

"Shut your stinky mouth, Chasen, this is my second brother's precious daughter, the little princess of our Barton family." The tavern owner laughed and scolded.

It was obvious that he had long-standing friendships with the patrons in the tavern.

"Stop standing there stupidly, little Amy, come here and treat your third uncle as his own home." The tavern owner motioned for Zhang Xiaodao to follow him, and at the same time told a waiter in the tavern, "Yordel

, I’ll leave this to you first, I’ll go arrange a room for little Amy.”

"Yes, boss!" The waiter responded drunkenly, raising the wine glass in his hand.

"Just keep drinking, you bastard!"

The tavern owner cursed and walked to the backyard with Zhang Xiaodao. This scene also made the old drunkards in the tavern laugh.

Zhang Xiaodao didn't say a word the whole time, just following behind the tavern owner.

When they came to a room, the tavern owner opened the door and walked in first, and motioned for Zhang Xiaodao to follow him in.

After entering the room, the tavern owner went straight to a floor-to-ceiling cabinet and opened the cabinet door, revealing a deep tunnel.

"Follow me-"

The tavern owner didn't explain anything and stepped into it first.

Zhang Xiaodao didn't ask any questions and followed decisively. At this time, the tavern owner's voice came from the front:

"Please help me close the cabinet door, thank you."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaodao immediately turned around and closed the cabinet door.

The moment she closed the cabinet door, her vision suddenly went dark and she lost consciousness.

…

"I, where is this?"

The movement in his ears and the slight shaking feeling made Zhang Xiaodao slowly wake up from his coma.

She gradually remembered that she had gone to the tavern called Dream Country according to the address given by Su Xueqi, and had also matched the password.

As expected, the tavern owner understood something and took her to a room in the backyard and opened a secret door for her to follow.

The last memory she had was of her closing the cupboard door behind her as requested by the tavern owner, and then suddenly losing consciousness.

"Did...she lied to me?"

Zhang Xiaodao's first reaction was that he had been tricked by Su Xueqi.

But reason told her that there was no need for Su Xueqi to do this, and there was no conflict of interest between the two parties.

If Su Xueqi wanted to be disadvantageous to her, there was no need to beat around the bush like this.

Just as heaven and man were fighting in her mind, the familiar voice of the tavern owner sounded in her ears again, with a hint of smile:

"Okay, stop pretending, I know you're awake."
