Seeing a group of demons gambling at the entrance of the teahouse, Yue Jiuli stuck her head out to look at the two demonic beasts downstairs, wanting to see how their fight was going.

Although the monster with large fangs looked fierce and had a significant advantage in size and build compared to the tiger, it seemed to be no match for the tiger when they fought.

"Hmph~ I knew it! Boss Chai's magical beasts are the most powerful. No matter what kind of magical beasts come, they can't beat them!"

"That's what a middle-aged man with gray hair, who had just won a bet on the tiger, said."

"That's right, the city lord's son is probably going to lose."

Another demon also spoke.

When Yue Jiuli looked down, she saw the monster with the big fangs fighting with the tiger. The tiger was clearly winning, and the monster with the big fangs looked like it was about to lose.

"Tsk~ How boring. Why do people like to challenge others so much?"

Suddenly, just as Yue Jiuli was watching the show, a woman's voice came from behind her. She turned around and saw that it was a red-haired woman, but the red-haired woman was looking at the competition below with a look of disgust.

Seeing the woman's expression, Yue Jiuli could tell that she seemed to dislike watching this kind of competition, so she tentatively asked, "What's wrong? Why do you seem to dislike this kind of game? Don't you see everyone else enjoying it?"

"Hehe~ I don't like such a boring game."

The red-haired woman glanced at Yue Jiuli, then pursed her lips and said, "I wonder which guy started playing this boring game. It's been going on for hundreds of years, and they still don't get tired of it."

"Ah~ I didn't realize it's been like this for so long. I thought it was a recent trend~"

Yue Jiuli pretended to be clueless and said, "Oh, by the way, could you tell me how your game works? I'm from Border City, so I'm not very familiar with your town."

"You're from the border city?" The red-haired woman stared at Yue Jiuli for a moment and said, "I heard it's very chaotic over there. Which tribe do you belong to?"

"Hmm, actually I don't know which category I belong to~"

"You don't know? How is that possible?"

The red-haired woman was very surprised, because in the demon realm, every demon belongs to a clan; it's impossible for someone to be without a clan.

"Well, this is a long story."

When asked which ethnic group she belonged to, Yue Jiuli started to panic. Damn it, what ethnic group did she belong to?!

However, in order not to expose her secret, Yue Jiuli had no choice but to use Rou Rou's background.

Yue Jiuli feigned a sorrowful expression, looking down at the two fiercely battling demonic beasts below, and said, "Actually, I am a hybrid of demon and monster. My father is a demon, and my mother is a monster. However, both my parents died after I was born, so I don't know which race I belong to..."

"Ah, I see. How old are you this year? How have you been living since your parents passed away?"

The woman in red gave Yue Jiuli a sympathetic look, it seemed she had believed Yue Jiuli's words.

Seeing this, Yue Jiuli continued to make up a story: "I am 101 years old this year. Actually, I was raised by my grandmother. My mother was a cat demon. She didn't know that my father was a demon at that time. My father also hid his identity very well. He only found out something was wrong after I was born. But later, because of the enemies who came to kill us, my parents died at the hands of the enemies. Then my grandmother took me home."

While telling the story with red eyes, Yue Jiuli stretched out her hands and conjured a pair of cat paws: "Actually, apart from my hair and eyes, I don't have any other demonic symbols. I can't use magic power, I can only use demonic arts."

Looking at those black, furry cat paws, the red-haired woman completely believed Yue Jiuli, because there were many mixed-race people in the Demon Realm, and they also had people like Yue Jiuli.

The woman in red said, "Oh dear, so you are so pitiful. By the way, why did you come to our town?"

"Well, that's because my grandma passed away not long ago, so I decided to come out and see some other places."

After Yue Jiuli saw that the fight downstairs had ended and the victor was indeed the tiger from the teahouse, she pointed at the tiger and said, "By the way, how does your game work? What happens when the monster wins or loses?"

"Oh, it's nothing really, just a regular bet. Usually, the winning demon makes a condition to the losing demon. The demons here all like to gamble, so most of them are like this."

After the red-haired woman finished speaking, she looked down at the tiger downstairs. She continued, "However, because Boss Chai has won so many times, he rarely makes any demands on challengers."

"oh oh."

Yue Jiuli watched as the group of blond-haired men downstairs exchanged a few words with a waiter at the teahouse entrance. Then, they left the teahouse with the large-fanged monster, looking dejected and clearly unhappy.

After they left, Yue Jiuli saw the people who had been betting earlier dividing their winnings, and the red-haired woman was also preparing to leave.

She said, "I'm leaving, you little mixed-race kid~"

Yue Jiuli waved goodbye to her and then left the teahouse.
