It took Suiyi and Nuoer seven days to reach the Nine Yi Holy Land. As soon as they entered the territory, Suiyi was attracted by its prosperity.
"This place truly lives up to its reputation as the center of the continent; its prosperity is incomparable to anything we have back home. There are just too many wealthy people here," Sui Yi exclaimed.
Noel: "Miss, you yourself are a rich person."
"That's not the same. Nobody ever complains about having too much money. Uh, by the way, Noel, shall we find out who the richest person here is? Let's pay them a visit sometime."
"Miss, please don't do anything so foolish again." She knew exactly what Sui Yi was up to.
"Don't worry, I'm just following the normal procedures." After saying that, Suiyi led Nuoer into a restaurant.
"Gentlemen, is there anything you need?"
"Bring us some of your best dishes," Suiyi said to the waiter.
"Okay, please wait a moment." After saying that, she left. Before long, a table full of delicious dishes was placed on the table. After Suiyi and the others finished eating, they asked the waiter to settle the bill.
"May I ask if you know who the richest person here is?"
"Of course it's our Emperor; he controls the economic lifeline of the entire Nine Barbarian Tribes." With that, he left.
Suiyi and Nuoer left the restaurant, intending to wander around. "Miss, look at all the strange things they sell here! I've never seen anything like them before," Nuoer said, pulling Suiyi to look through each stall.
On a high-rise building, two people were sitting and sipping tea. "Muzhi, your brother finally found you, and you're leaving after only a few days. Can't you stay for me?"
"Everyone has their own ambitions, and mine lies elsewhere. I came here to fulfill a long-held wish, and now that it has been granted, there's no need for me to stay any longer." Mu Zhi took a small sip of tea, his eyes fixed on the street outside the window. Suddenly, his pupils contracted, and he abruptly stood up. "Excuse me," he said, leaping out of the window. He chased after a familiar figure. However, it was during a grand event, and the crowds were dense; Mu Zhi didn't catch up with the person.
"Nuo'er, we'll stay here tonight." Suiyi pulled Nuo'er inside, asked for a room, put down their bundle, and then went out.
"Boss, is there anything exciting going on tonight?" Sui Yi stood at the counter.
"Tonight, Miss Yinyin of Tianxiang Pavilion is auctioning off her virginity. I heard the Holy Emperor is going too!"
"Is that young lady very pretty?" Noel asked.
"She's not just beautiful, she's absolutely stunning! I was lucky enough to see her once, and her beauty was breathtaking. Just one look was like being bewitched."
"Tch, that's because you haven't seen anyone prettier than her. Let me tell you..."
"Nuo'er, keep quiet. But let's go take a look and join in the fun." Suiyi interrupted Nuo'er, thanked the shopkeeper, and then pulled Nuo'er away.
"What? Miss, you'll definitely be the most beautiful woman in the world when you grow up," Nuo'er retorted.
"You should know that there are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. Since you're curious about what they look like, let's go take a look." With that, they left.
Sui Yi and Qi Muzhi arrived at Tianxiang Tower and found a good spot to sit. In the top-tier room on the second floor, Qi Muzhi listened absentmindedly to the Holy Emperor. He hadn't seen that person today, and he was feeling restless, worried that she might be in danger. Seeing that Muzhi hadn't responded to his rambling, the Holy Emperor stopped talking, guessing that he was probably looking for someone and hadn't found them, hence his anxiety.
