Chapter 466 Why is it you again?
As expected of one of the most prestigious families in Freedom City, Yuan Yajun's flying boat is even more luxurious than the Tianji Sect's pavilion.
The airship is filled with spiritual energy, and is elegant, noble, and warm in every way.
Free City was even bigger than Yu Zhiyi had imagined.
She thought Shoushi City and Wanyuan City were already super large cities, but she didn't expect Freedom City to be even more exaggerated.
This city is comparable to half of the Great Sheng Empire.
The streets are intricate and crowded with pedestrians.
Most importantly, the types of pedestrians are very diverse.
There are humans with normal appearances, rabbit demons with rabbit ears, and demons surrounded by a dark aura.
Yu Zhiyi watched with awe.
Seeing her staring at the demons and monsters, Yuan Yajun explained, "Don't be fooled by their strange appearance. The demons and monsters accepted by Freedom City have all undergone strict screening. At the very least, we have to make sure they haven't actively harmed anyone before we can issue them residence permits."
"To settle in the city and obtain a normal household registration in Liberty City, one needs to live stably in the city for more than fifteen years and ensure that one does not commit any crimes during those fifteen years. It would be even better if one could make some contributions to the city."
Yu Zhiyi looked surprised: "The management system of Free City is quite comprehensive."
Yuan Yaying said proudly, "Of course, this is the most perfect system that our ancestors formulated after many years of practice. It can ensure that humans, demons and monsters can coexist peacefully, and also ensure that the interests of humankind are not harmed."
After she finished speaking, her expression suddenly became very uneasy.
Yuan Yaying glanced at Yu Zhiyi, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Yu Zhiyi did not seem angry.
Yu Zhiyi assumed that the reason she was always so cautious in her observation of people was because of the psychological trauma she suffered in the dungeon. As she appreciated the lively atmosphere of the city, she suddenly realized that all aspects of life were just like this.
The Heavenly Mystery Sect is dedicated to eliminating all evil demons to ensure peace and order in the world.
Free City can provide a home for innocent demons and monsters who have not done anything wrong, so that they will not be displaced.
Often, displacement means instability.
Instability can easily lead to problems.
Liberty City does this very well.
Moreover, seeing so many people with hairy ears on the street makes my hands itch to grab them.
The group soon arrived at the Yuan family's residence.
Miss Yuan's birthday celebration is a grand event every year, and guests are arranged to stay several days in advance.
However, very few people are personally greeted by Yuan Yajun. The few who are greeted are all disciples or direct descendants of various powerful forces.
The Tianji Sect has gradually declined in recent years, and few people know its disciples.
Yu Zhiyi was not only a disciple of the Tianji Sect, but also came from outside, so very few people knew her.
So when everyone saw that Miss Yuan was personally accompanying a young, unfamiliar couple into the mansion, they began to speculate about the identities of the two.
The banquet was not to begin until the evening of three days later. Yuan Yajun had many guests in the next two days. She had just accompanied Yu Zhiyi to the prepared room when someone came to report that the people from the Sword Sect had arrived and the patriarch had asked her to personally greet them.
That's right, the head of the Yuan family has emerged from seclusion.
The previous incident caused quite a stir, and it was no longer just a matter between the Yuan family and the Gan family, but involved the entire Hidden Realm and everyone in the Gan family.
The Yuan family then used a secret method to notify the head of the Yuan family, who then invited the person out.
During Yu Zhiyi's recovery, the liquidation of the case also caused quite a stir.
The Yuan family was the main contributor.
After all, almost all of the Gan family members have been arrested, and the investigation into their crimes and the people they have harmed over the years is intensifying.
One of the most important aspects of the investigation is identifying who purchased the Longevity Pill.
However, the master once said that the investigation into this last item might be dropped.
The most crucial reason is that the buyer was unaware of the production process and ingredients of the Longevity Pill.
Another deeper reason, which her master didn't mention, Yu Zhiyi could guess.
In short, no matter what, the Gan family is doomed.
As for those who aid and abet evil, retribution will come; it's just that their time hasn't come yet.
Yuan Yajun gave Yu Zhiyi an apologetic look, handed her a storage ring, and then went to entertain the guests.
Yuan Yaying did not leave with them.
Yu Zhiyi looked at her with suspicion: "Is there anything else, Second Miss?"
Yuan Yaying pursed her lips and took out a necklace: "This is my thank-you gift. I hope Miss Yu will accept it with pleasure."
Yu Zhiyi was taken aback: "But, Miss has already given a thank-you gift."
"That was a reward from my sister, not a thank-you gift."
Anger flashed across Yuan Yaying's chubby face as she shoved the food into Yu Zhiyi's hand, giving her no chance to refuse, and then turned and ran away.
Yu Zhiyi: "?"
She shook her head, packed the things away, and planned to return them to her the next time she saw her.
Fifth Senior Brother was assigned to a different room in the same courtyard as her. At dinner time, Fifth Senior Brother came to call Yu Zhiyi to eat.
The Yuan family has a small kitchen. At mealtimes, they can choose to have the food brought over from the kitchen or go out to eat.
Fifth Senior Brother was naturally active and wanted to go out to eat.
Yu Zhiyi wasn't particular about food, and she also wanted to go for a stroll in the streets, so she changed her clothes and went out with her fifth senior brother.
"It's so lively!"
Yu Zhiyi sighed.
Perhaps because of the tripartite balance of power, Liberty City is more bustling than the other cities.
A wide variety of distinctive clothing, decorations, and snacks are available.
Yu Zhiyi had never seen these things before, and since she was not short of money, she planned to buy a little of each and give them to the people in the sect as gifts when she returned.
She also bought a copy for the Jiang family, Hongluan, Ziyuan, and everyone from Yiluan Charity.
The items were exquisitely designed, but not expensive. In total, they only cost a few hundred spirit stones.
Wait, only?
Yu Zhiyi felt like she was getting too big for her britches.
Not long ago, several hundred spirit stones were her entire fortune, and she wished she could split a spirit stone in two to use it.
At this moment, I feel that a few hundred spirit stones are nothing.
Fifth Senior Brother wasn't so cunning; his entire journey was simply a matter of eating, eating, eating, eating...
Yu Zhiyi strongly suspected that he might have already eaten his fill before even reaching the restaurant.
Suddenly, a joyful voice rang out: "Yi'er!"
Yu Zhiyi: "...Du Ziheng? It's you again?"
She looked up speechlessly and, sure enough, saw Du Ziheng appear a few meters away, looking at her with a face full of surprise.
At that time, the fifth senior brother had already finished the last bite of his food.
Don't let the fact that Fifth Senior Brother seems unreliable fool you; when he gets serious, he can actually be quite impressive.
He was dressed in a Taoist robe, had a handsome appearance, and his eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.
