"North City is the most prosperous place in the Northern Territory. This time, it was the only place that remained untouched by the flames of war."

"Even though we are all running away day and night, North City is still prosperous and has everything."

"All the powerful people have already entered the North City."

The boy then gave a few introductions.

After all, he is a local and has a special understanding of everything in the Northern Territory. Yes, he naturally yearns for the Northern City.

When North City was mentioned, there was a hint of longing in the eyes of everyone present. It was obvious that it was the place they longed for.

These people were all wearing tattered clothes, and it was obvious that they were people with miserable lives. Naturally, they were not qualified to enter the North City.

Those who can live in the North City are either local dignitaries or powerful people.

On ordinary days, even though the people from the Temple of God would capture some people with good talents and drain their blood, they would not attack the people in the North City.

In this way, the Holy Demon Palace would naturally let them go.

After all, when the war is over, the east, south, west, north and central regions governed by the Divine Palace will all fall into the hands of the Holy Demon Palace.

Of course, if they lose, all these territories will be returned to the Shrine.

Who would damage their own territory?

"Why can't everyone enter North City?"

Long Yi asked.

"When disaster strikes, since there's a shelter, it's natural to protect more people."

"Besides, North City is also part of the Northern Territory, and you are all citizens of the Northern Territory. Even if you want to enter North City, they have no right to stop you."

Long Yi spoke in a decisive tone.

If the people in North City insisted on stopping it, it would be too overbearing.

The boy smiled bitterly. He had long forgotten the hatred between him and Long Yi, and more importantly, he had understood Long Yi's good intentions.

All of this really has nothing to do with Long Yi. It's more about their lack of ability to protect their relatives and friends.

That's why everyone suffered such a misfortune.

We can't really put all these charges on Long Yi.

He continued, "North City has its own rules. We are just pariahs. At least in their eyes, our lives are worthless. The power of life and death is in their hands."

"Plus, there's a city lord in North City, who's said to be one of the four former guardians. He holds a very prominent position. It was he who issued the order that when the war breaks out, outsiders will no longer be allowed to enter or leave North City freely. Anyone who breaks in will be killed without mercy."

One of the protectors of the past?

Long Yi couldn't help but be stunned. If that was the case, the opponent's strength should be terrifying?

After all, those who can become the guardians of the Temple of God are not simple people.

But that’s not the point.

Long Yi then asked, "You mean to say that even at this time, the gates of North City have never been closed?"

The boy nodded heavily.

The others around him also started to speak.

"The gates of the North City are heavily guarded. Even if the gates are open, no one dares to enter without permission."

"So, there's no need for people to restrict us. We just have to obey."

"Yeah, that's a place only for people of status. Even if we go there, I guess we can only sleep on the street, right?"

"Sleeping on the street is better than here. Although there are some dilapidated houses here that can shelter us from the wind and rain, we could lose our lives at any time!"

“…”

Everyone expressed their desire to enter the North City.

Long Yi's eyes turned, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He then said with a smile: "If I want to take everyone into the North City, I wonder what everyone's plans are? Are you willing to follow me?"

"You're taking us into the North City? Are you kidding us?"

The boy asked with wide eyes.

Even though Long Yi has great abilities and can even talk to the high-level officials of the Holy Demon Palace, there are only these two people around Long Yi.

If they force their way into the North City, Long Yi might be in danger of death.

And none of them will have a good ending.

Could it be that...

Is Long Yi planning to die with them and then avenge himself?

The boy quickly dismissed the idea in his mind. If Long Yi really wanted to do this, with the skills he just displayed, he would not need to use the trick of killing someone with a borrowed knife. He could kill them all in minutes.

How could they be allowed to survive until now?

After thinking this through, the boy spoke again, "If you really have this ability, then we are all willing to follow you."

There were hundreds of people present, and everyone agreed.

Who wouldn’t want to take advantage of such a good deal?

After all, as long as they can enter the North City, they will be completely safe.

"Okay, then you lead the way and take us to the North City."

"Once we reach the city gate, I will find a way to stop them from blocking my way, and then I will take you all in."

"I'm a man of my words, and I won't break my promise this time."

Long Yi spoke decisively.

The boy also chose to believe Long Yi, and the group quickly headed towards the distant place.

"You probably want to open a branch of the auction in North City, right?"

Others don’t know what Long Yi is thinking, but Yao Yue knows it very well.

Long Yi's little trick couldn't be hidden from her eyes.

Compared to the entire Northern Territory, it is now in the midst of war. Apart from North City, there is really no better place for them to set up a branch of the auction.

But she also felt a touch of emotion in her heart. After all, the auction had nothing to do with Long Yi.

But now, Long Yi has done so much, all for her.

It’s a pity that Long Yi never accepted her love, otherwise, it would be a true perfection.

"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from your eyes."

"No wonder the four directors trusted you with all their assets. You are truly extraordinary."

Long Yi responded with a smile.

"Are you praising me?"

Yao Yue smiled and said, "Why didn't I notice before that you actually have such a pair of eyes that are good at discovering things?"

"But I don't want you to discover my abilities. I want you to discover my charm."
