The next morning, Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi packed their bags and headed to town to bid farewell to Wang Yinlan.
Wang Yinlan was clearly a little worried, and it was inevitable that she would grumble as she spoke, but Ji Jiayu was all smiles, enjoying being cared for and cared for. How could she be upset?
Half an hour later, Wang Yinlan felt like she was being provocative, so she said flatly, "Okay, I won't say much. You two stay safe."
"I know." Ji Jiayu smiled and nodded.
"Take care of each other," Wang Yinlan said.
"Hmm." Nie Lanxi hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Go, go." Wang Yinlan waved her hand, "Waiting for your good news."
"Then Aunt Lan, let's go first." Ji Jiayu said, "You should take good care of yourself too."
"I'm also a Ming god, do I still need you to worry?" Wang Yinlan said.
Ji Jiayu smiled, didn't speak, and thought: You're a god, that's right, and it's true that you need to care. Wang Yinlan waved her hand, while Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi gradually walked away. Wang Yinlan watched their backs, like a mother watching a wanderer leave home.
Their figures completely disappeared, and Wang Yinlan remained standing there for a long time before turning to leave.
Sheng Yao Si's back garden was located in a primeval forest in the heart of the Holy Kingdom. The nearest city was Tianchi City, over 300 kilometers away.
Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi overcame obstacles and used holy magic to navigate many dead ends, finally arriving at Tianchi City.
Tianchi City was a tourist city, a leading city for Guangming people from other places to explore the outskirts of the primeval forest.
As soon as they stepped into the city, Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi saw a national highway.
The so-called national highway was a road built by the Holy Kingdom. The national highway is paved with special bricks and stones, eight meters wide, and the total length of national highways across the country is estimated at tens of thousands of kilometers, the result of the joint efforts of countless practitioners.
Next, Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi will follow this well-connected national highway all the way south to Qiming City, a thriving city on the south coast.
They embark on the national highway from a remote road, joining the flow of people, and all they see are Guangming people in various styles of dress. However, they are all men, and a mixed-race woman of the Mingming race does not attract the attention of any Guangming people.
It should be noted that Tianchi City is located in the center of the Holy Kingdom, thousands of kilometers away from Qiming City, and even humans are rare, let alone the combination of Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi.
This is due to Wang Yinlan's clarification of the current situation in the Holy Kingdom to the two of them. Ji Jiayu knew he had a special identity now, so before leaving the ancient forest, he asked Nie Lanxi to repeat his old trick and use the light of the Sacred Gem to change the light on the two people's faces, preventing outsiders from seeing their true appearances. Simply put, it was a light disguise.
After entering Tianchi City, the two went straight to the Dragon Horse Farm.
Although the dragon horses were slightly inferior to the ordinary Pegasus mounts of the Sacred Sect's saints, they also possessed long-distance running abilities, capable of running 1,500 miles in a day.
With the Sacred Sect's priest badge, the two easily rented two dragon horses and then set foot on the national road south.
For the next three days, the two of them traveled all day except for rest breaks, finally arriving at Qiming City on the afternoon of the third day.
As a city founded entirely by humans, Qiming City was originally just a small village. As the number of people lost to humanity increased, it slowly became a town and then developed into a small town and then a large city.
Currently, Qiming City has a population of millions, and is a super-large city that can rank among the top twenty in the Holy Kingdom. Eighty percent of the city is human, fifteen percent is mixed race between light races and humans, and only five percent is light race. Due to the turmoil in public opinion in recent months, the proportion of Guangming people has decreased by another 1%.
After entering the city, Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxun first went to return the dragon steed, and then removed their light disguises.
In places with a greater number of Guangming people, humans and hybrids are more eye-catching, but in Qiming City, it is the Guangming people who attract attention, especially here where the number of Guangming people is dwindling by the day.
Qiming Street, the main thoroughfare of Qiming City, is bustling with people coming and going.
For example, the Human Race descendants in the Blue Realm Free Kingdom tend to dress loosely, the Human Race descendants in the Law Realm Kingdom of Order dress more modestly, and the Human Race descendants in the Sanctuary Holy Spirit Kingdom dress very beautifully and luxuriously. This was perhaps the unique style of Qiming City.
Since they were likely to stay in the city for a while, Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi first found a hotel to settle in, then went to a restaurant, ready to inquire about the news.
Most people enjoy drinking while dining, and after drinking, they often tell the truth or boast, making restaurants a gathering place for information. However, whether the information is true or false is up to you to judge for yourself.
Restaurants were everywhere in Qiming City, but the largest and most lively was Chen Se, a chain restaurant that attracted the three religions and nine sects of Qiming City.
Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi went to the nearest one. As soon as they sat down, before they could pick up the menu and order, they heard a deliberately suppressed voice of surprise.
"Ji Shen!" The voice's owner was extremely excited.
Hearing this familiar voice, Ji Jiayu turned his head and immediately revealed a happy expression: "Ye Zihang!"
Ji Jiayu never expected to see an acquaintance in a restaurant he casually entered in Qiming City! This was too coincidental!
"Why are you here?"
"Why are you here?" Ji Jiayu and Ye Zihang asked simultaneously.
"You said it first!"
"You said it first!" They both said the same thing again.
As soon as those words fell, both of them laughed again.
Although there was a rift between them, it was long over. They were from the same camp, and they had both experienced the events of the True Light World and the Holy City, so their relationship was naturally extraordinary.
"I work here," Ye Zihang replied.
"Work?" Ji Jiayu was slightly surprised. She had sensed it a little and knew that Ye Zihang had reached the peak of the Third Order.
Someone with a peak Third Order cultivation base actually worked in a restaurant... But Ji Jiayu thought about it and understood.
