Tabor and Sova looked at her at the same time, but Ye Luoxing looked away after two seconds.
She selectively told them about the things related to the group of orcs. Some of the things were inconvenient to tell, but she described them in as much detail as possible. She did not hide anything from them about the two days they lived here. Her voice was the only one on the second floor of the stone house.
When Tabor and the others heard that it was the group of beasts that defeated her in the ring, their expressions changed more or less.
After a while, when she had finished speaking, Sova did not blame her at all. Instead, he whispered, "Fortunately, you are okay and still here."
Tabor could tell that she had hidden something from them, but they did not ask any further questions and were also glad that she stayed.
Tabor and his companions quickly checked the stone house and didn't seem to find anything. Several orcs stuck their heads out of the window to check again.
Tabor wanted to say something to Ye Luoxing. He glanced at the competition stage in front of the stone house and said, "This competition stage..."
He hesitated to speak, perhaps because there were too many orcs in the stone house, so he did not say the rest of the words.
When he turned to Ye Luoxing again, he said to her: "Female Luoxing, let us take you back first."
Ye Luoxing continued: "Don't bother, you guys go and do your things first. Even if you want to go back, I can go back by myself."
Tabor insisted, "Only after we send you back to the cabins over there can we do other things with peace of mind."
The females' residences are all heavily guarded and close to the inner city, making them the safest places in the outer city.
Seeing that Tabor and Sova were insistent, Ye Luoxing thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I'll go tell Lyle and the others."
She walked to the first floor, and Tabor explained some things to the patrol team. The patrol team dispersed, and then he and Sova followed her with the male beasts that usually guarded Ye Luoxing.
On the first floor, Lyle and the others looked at Tabor and his beasts again. Tabor and his beasts' cold gazes made Mu Huai and the others nervous as well.
Ye Luoxing followed them away. She sat on Sova's back, and Tabor sat on the back of a flying beast, walking side by side with her.
As they slowly flew away from the ring, Tabor's voice finally rang out again in the silence of the early morning.
He said, "Female Luo Xing, although I don't think you need to open an arena to choose a mate, if you really want to open an arena, you can tell us. When you first entered the city, we told you in detail about the uses of various vacant lots in the city. We can help you with many things. But, are you really doing this to choose a mate?"
Ye Luoxing looked ahead calmly: "I'm not looking for a mate. Since you asked, I won't hide it from you. I just want to get something done. So, using purified food as an exchange, the participating orcs won't suffer any loss."
"Of course they are not at a disadvantage." Sova quickly responded, with some displeasure in his tone, but not towards Ye Luoxing.
Tabor was silent for a few seconds before he said, "Also, you concealed your identity and participated in the Overlord Tournament. Have you always had this talent for that level?"
Ye Luoxing nodded: "Yes, yes."
She not only has the star rank, but also the level rank. Tabor's emotions still couldn't calm down for a long time.
"Female Luo Xing, do you still want to keep this arena?" Tabor asked her.
"Yes." She replied, and she would keep it until she left, unless something unexpected happened.
"I'm starting to regret not realizing it was your arena earlier." Tabor suddenly said this.
Ye Luoxing turned to him, but Tabor looked up at the distant sky. "You're from the south, so you probably haven't seen the polar night in the north. The polar night in the north is very beautiful, with the aurora and the starry sky. The night in the south can't compare. Do you want to stay and see it?"
The change of topic and the sudden invitation were Tabor's attempts to keep her.
Ye Luoxing heard it. The sunlight shone through her eyelashes and fell on her face. The sun in the north was warm and gentle. The silence at this moment made the whole atmosphere become gentle. The polar night was beautiful and the Polar Night City was magnificent. When the polar night completely replaced the polar day, the Polar Night City would emit its true brilliance in the night, just as its name suggested.
When Ye Luoxing heard the name of this city for the first time, she had expectations, expectations of that kind of beauty, but it was too far away from her.
She retracted her gaze, which had drifted away at some point, and said, "Hometown is always more worth looking forward to than beautiful scenery."
She answered him in another way, that she didn't want to go to the South, she just wanted to go home.
"Female Luo Xing." Tabor called out her name again. This time, he turned to her. "If I win the competition, can I become your mate?"
Tabor's words turned back abruptly, his eyes were sincere and his tone was serious, which made Ye Luoxing stunned.
Then, she heard Sova's deep voice coming from below: "Since you've opened the arena, you must choose a partner. This is the rule of Midnight City. We have no shortage of food."
Their attitude and words made Ye Luoxing understand the thoughts that had come to their mind when they first saw the competition stage.
They hesitated to speak several times, and glanced at the stage several times. They asked those questions just now, and it turned out that they wanted to say this.
Tabor and the others were indeed eager to make a move. On the one hand, they were surprised by the truth, and on the other hand, they were also filled with an impulse. In fact, ever since they saw the competition stage, they had not been able to calm down, and even now, their hearts were churning...
"This is also one of the reasons why I chose to hide it from you." Ye Luoxing replied. Tabor had expressed his affection for her a long time ago, so she really didn't want to make it too awkward for both of them because of this.
Her answers each time were not so hurtful to the orcs, but they also made her meaning clear.
Tabor and Sova naturally understood. Tabor withdrew his gaze and said nothing more, but the surging emotions in his eyes did not fade away. Instead, his eyes darkened, and his covetous ambition slowly revealed itself...
After Ye Luoxing's showdown with them, Tabor had clearly changed. The aura around him was no longer as kind as before, and he didn't look like a simple orc at all...
They quickly brought Ye Luoxing back to the stone house. Ye Luoxing jumped off Sova's back, and Sova and the others transformed into human form one after another.
Before Ye Luoxing entered the cabin, Tabor leaned over to her and said, "Female Luoxing, please have a good rest tonight. I wish you a good sleep!"
This was the first time Ye Luoxing heard Tabor say these words, and in such a serious manner.
She paused, nodded at him, and walked into the wooden house. When she closed the door, she saw Sova and the others turned around as usual, with their backs to the wooden house, quietly guarding it.
Ye Luoxing and Yue Shang both felt something unusual, but in fact they both knew that it was difficult and impossible to refuse when they agreed to Tabor and the others to escort her back. Two major events had happened in succession, and now, she could no longer leave just like that.
