Jiang Liyue's feet were on the hard ground, and above her head was the warm blue sun that was always hanging high in the sky over Qingyang City.
It's just that she now looks a little dazed, and her walking posture is a little strange, like a patient who has just recovered from being bedridden for a long time and is trying to walk again.
Now her ears seemed to still echo with the words of the Sea Sound Priest.
"Ms. Jiang, the recent training of sea beasts has been very effective. The boss has granted you a period of leave. You can leave the secret realm now."
Jiang Liyue took a deep breath. Although her talent was affinity with water-type beasts, she didn't want to see water-type beasts again for a long time.
Just as she closed her eyes and quietly experienced the beauty of the Earth's environment, a gentle female voice sounded softly in her ears.
"Miss Liyue, City Lord Luo is waiting for you."
Hearing the familiar voice, Jiang Liyue opened her eyes and saw Zhao Wan who appeared in front of her at some point.
It had been more than two years since they last met. Zhao Wan had changed a lot. She was now dressed in elegant and refined clothes.
Standing there quietly, her air of dignity did not seem like that of a receptionist or tour guide, but rather like a fairy beauty lost in the human world.
Jiang Liyue looked at Zhao Wan's current appearance and nodded with some satisfaction, "Xiao Wan, it seems that you are living well here. I am relieved."
Zhao Wan smiled softly at Jiang Liyue. "Thank you, Miss Liyue, for your concern. City Lord Luo has been very kind to us. He's waiting for you at the Science and Technology Department. I've come specially to show you the way."
Jiang Liyue seemed to have thought of something, and asked tentatively with some hesitation, "Xiao Wan, could Boss Luo have another mission for me?"
After finally returning from the Cangyuan Secret Realm and being able to rest for a while, Jiang Liyue really doesn't want to do any work now.
Seeing Jiang Liyue's expression as if she wanted to run away, Zhao Wan covered her mouth and smiled softly, then slowly shook her head.
"I don't know what City Lord Luo has planned, but don't worry, Miss Liyue. The City Lord is not the kind of boss who exploits people."
"Tsk, I've been there for nearly three years, and he only just remembered to give me a vacation. Isn't that exploitative?"
Jiang Liyue clearly expressed her disbelief at what Zhao Wan explained for Luo Chen.
Zhao Wan led the way and after thinking for a moment, she continued, "It's very likely...but the city lord forgot."
Jiang Liyue couldn't complain about this explanation. After all, she was just a non-staff member who would leave when her contract expired. Unlike the four sisters, whose future development depended entirely on Beast Taming City, it was understandable that they were treated better.
Zhao Wan and Jiang Liyue shuttled through various towering trees. From time to time, some beast masters took the initiative to greet Zhao Wan enthusiastically, as if they were very familiar friends.
Facing Jiang Liyue behind Zhao Wan, these beast masters no longer had the same curiosity as at the beginning, because they had seen too many human breeders in the north of the Beast Taming City.
Over such a long period of time, some of them have even had close contact with the breeders, so they are no longer surprised by it.
The passage of time has the greatest impact on the Beast Taming City, because in the process of rapid development, the scene and appearance here change almost every day.
The "Science and Technology Hall", located very close to the central area, has expanded several times compared to its original appearance.
Even outside the "Science and Technology Hall", a very large square was built, where various beasts came from all directions, and then piled up materials and resources that were rarely seen in the outside world on the ground.
After some mechanical beast tamers took over the scanning, the entire square was filled with a busy scene.
Most of the people working here are beast tamers. As for humans, Jiang Liyue only saw Zhao Wan on the road.
After entering the "Science and Technology Hall", the space inside has expanded several times, and it has planned "visiting area", "trading area", "task delegation area" and "customer service area".
Here, Jiang Liyue finally saw humans. Most of them were staying in the visiting area, trading area and customer service area.
In the mission entrustment area, most of the people queuing are beast tamers, which is also the busiest area in the "Science and Technology Department".
Watching a blue-green beast with a shell on its body leave with satisfaction after accepting the task,
Jiang Liyue's worldview was somewhat shattered as she asked, "So, do the beast tamers here also need to work regularly?"
"Of course," Zhao Wan nodded as a matter of course, "As a member of Qingyang City, every beastmaster and every human living here must contribute to the construction of Qingyang City."
When saying this, Zhao Wan showed a rare level of passion and enthusiasm.
Jiang Liyue was silent for a moment, then commented, "City Lord Luo is truly a god."
First, he taught those sea beasts the rules of survival in the human world. It seems they are waiting here. The purpose is to make humans and beasts live in peace and work for him, right?
The two went up to the second floor through an elevator on the side, and then passed a very modern-looking office with various nameplates on it.
Finally, he stopped in front of a door labeled "City Lord's Office."
Zhao Wan knocked on the door gently, and after hearing a voice saying "Come in" from inside, she took Jiang Liyue in.
When passing through the portal, Jiang Liyue actually had a familiar feeling of entering a secret realm.
Seeing the scene behind the door, Jiang Liyue was sure that Luo Chen had indeed used a secret realm as his office.
There was a deep starry sky above their heads and a dark brown rocky ground under their feet. Luo Chen was sitting on a giant rock base, smiling at the two of them.
"Miss Jiang, long time no see."
Hearing Luo Chen mention this, Jiang Liyue's mouth twitched inexplicably, "Boss, long time no see. Do you have any other mission for me this time?"
She still needs to work for Luo Chen for seven years, and it is only right that she is treated like a mule. Now she only hopes that Luo Chen will not really treat her as a "mule".
Luo Chen looked at Jiang Liyue strangely. Does this girl like working so much?
The guilt he had felt for forgetting her in Cangyuan had inexplicably dissipated a lot now. Perhaps this vacation could be shortened a bit, after all, Qingyang City needed manpower in all aspects right now.
"Ahem, didn't I promise to let you return to the family to resolve your personal issues? Now it's time for me to fulfill my promise.
There are now three beasts for you to choose from. One is the mid-level Tianxing Golden Jade Tree, the second is the mid-level Tianxing Sea Dragon, and the third is the Haiyin Priest you are familiar with.
Who do you choose?"
