Chapter 24 Surprise

Guyan City is a larger city in the Phoenix Territory. It stands on a wasteland. Although it is said to be a wasteland, there is actually vegetation, but it is not as lush as the mountains and forests.

About a day after entering the Phoenix Territory, Yun Xi and the others saw the outline of the city.

Standing in the distance and looking towards it, this city standing in the wilderness has the flavor of an ancient human city. It is surrounded by low walls and the houses in the city are vaguely visible.

Around Guyan City, many earth-yellow peaks stand. Their area is not very large, and it is incomparable to the mountains in the forest, but their height is much higher than the latter.

Such a mountain peak is very suitable for some bird predators such as eagles and vultures to nest, and when Yun Xi raised her head, she did see many ferocious birds.

"The painting style here is completely different from the forest we passed before..."

Yunxi stood at the foot of a mountain. There were yellow-brown Miscanthus grass at her feet, which looked malnourished. There was also some unmelted frost accumulated on the grass.

Niu Wenhua stepped on the dead grass on the ground: "The grass here doesn't seem to have enough water."

Bai Qing rolled her eyes at her: "You don't care if it's enough, do you want to eat it?"

Niu Wenhua quickly shook her head. If she wanted to eat, she would eat the grass from Qingliyuan. The grass here was too dry and she might cut her tongue.

They kept walking along the road, and soon they arrived outside the gate of Guyan City.

The city governance of the Monster Clan is relatively loose. The city guards gathered together to drink and chat, paying no attention to the pedestrians coming and going. Yun Xi wore a bamboo hat on his head and walked in from the city gate easily.

Walking into the city, Yun Xi saw some decent street lights in the city, and the buildings looked decent, much stronger than the mud houses in the small towns they saw on the road.

Just as she felt when she saw the city outside the city, it was full of traces of human life.

"Harm! Don't tell me, after the people from Tianling Continent came, our place has become more and more decent."

"That's not the case! After all, we are human beings, and their lives are relatively refined. The demon clan lives a casual life, but they are not so particular. Therefore, the truce between the heavenly spirits and the demons is a good thing for us. The signal tower in the city

, it should be completed within three months at the latest, right?"

"It won't take so long, right? This has been under construction for several months, so it should be almost here."

"Tsk! After the signal tower is built, can we also use those hands and mobile phones like humans? I heard that this thing is more convenient than the sound transmission stone."

"Hey! Can you afford it?"

"You have to have something to think about, hahaha!"

When passing a tavern, Yun Xi clearly heard several orcs in the tavern discussing topics related to the construction of Guyan City.

Since the war stopped, the demon tribe has finally seized the opportunity to learn science and technology from humans. Now the entire demon realm is vigorously promoting technology.

Guyan City is a relatively important city in the Phoenix Territory, so it can be regarded as enjoying this benefit earlier.

Listening to the conversations of these people, Yun Xi seemed to see the situation in many cities in Tianling Continent three hundred years ago when human science and technology was just born.

Did people at that time also have such thoughts?

With this question in mind, Yun Xi smiled slightly and walked into the tavern.

She came to the wine table of the orc men and asked: "Hello, I would like to ask, do you know where the people from the Tianling Alliance live?"

When several people were suddenly questioned by a stranger, they were all stunned for a moment, and then instinctively became vigilant. However, this vigilance disappeared when they saw the little white fox on Yun Xi's shoulder.

They couldn't recognize Yun Xi because he was wearing a bamboo hat, but such a pure white fox was easy to identify.

There are many types of foxes in the Sky Beast Continent, but there is only one type of fox with pure white hair and sky-blue eyes.

Snow fox, one of the top ten celestial beasts.

Several men from the orc clan stood up immediately, walked respectfully to the door of the tavern, and said: "Sir, please go straight along this road, turn right at the fork at the end, and then left.

Turning forward, you can see a signal tower under construction. Most people from Tianling Continent live nearby."

Yun Xi nodded: "Thank you."

Then follow their guidance and keep moving forward along the road.

When these orc men saw Yun Xi and the others walking away, they returned to their seats and said with lingering fear: "That one just now, is it the Snow Fox?"

"It must be. I just took a look at it and felt my body shaking. This pressure must be the snow fox."

"Why are the adults of the Snow Fox Clan here? Isn't their relationship with the Lanfeng Clan not very good?"

"Who knows about big shots? We'd better stop gossiping, otherwise we might not even know how we died."

"Also..."

……

The orcs in the tavern were still talking about various topics, and Yun Xi had already seen the signal tower that was still under construction.

The signal tower is not very high. When converted into a human house, it is only about four or five stories high. It is no wonder that Yun Xi did not see this signal tower at the city gate before.

Thinking about Xiao Lingyuan and Ye Nianhan, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, Yun Xi felt a little excited, but at this time, she should hold back her inner restlessness.

Enter the village quietly and give them a surprise.

When we came to the vicinity of the signal tower, there was still construction here. There were Celestial Spirits and Beastmen working there, but the demons who could transform into humans were mostly resting aside.

This is the first time that Yun Xi has seen the construction site of a city signal tower in the Monster Clan at such a close distance. Judging from the current situation, most of the staff seem to be members of the Orc Clan, and the Tianling people are more on the side to direct, if necessary

It’s time to help with some more difficult tasks.

This is also expected. There are too few demons in the demon clan who have the ability to transform. Those demons generally have a good realm and a high status, and few are willing to do such hard work.

The main purpose of Tianling's technicians here is to teach skills. If they can't do meaningless hard work, they will naturally not do it.

After this calculation, the orcs have naturally become the representatives of the lower class.

However, this is not a bad thing at first sight. If these orcs can properly absorb and digest human science and technology, their status in the monster clan may not be qualitatively improved in the future.

The arrival of Yun Xi and the others quickly attracted the attention of the guards at the construction site. A man wearing armor and with sharp eyes like an eagle walked over.

He was about to scold Yun Xi and others who were getting closer when he suddenly saw the little fox on Yun Xi's shoulder. He suddenly lost his momentum and asked in a friendly manner: "This is the construction site of Guyan City's signal tower. How many of you are here?"

Are you here for something?"

Bai Qing glanced at the man lightly: "We are here to find someone."

Yun Xi asked: "Where do the people from Tianling Alliance's Jiuqing Hall live?"

While asking, she also took out her Tianling Token: "Sorry, I am also a member of the Tianling Alliance. This time I am not here for official business. I am just passing by. I happen to have a few friends here and I want to meet them.



When the guards saw the more luxurious and noble Heavenly Spirit Token in Yun Xi's hand, their attitude became better than at the beginning.

He said: "Hello, the guests of Jiuqingtang do not live here. They live in the Yangui Inn in the city. Just walk over there."

He pointed a direction to Yun Xi.

"Thank you."

After all, there was no prior contact, so Yun Xi expected to have to go around a few more times.

Leaving the construction site, Yun Xi and the others quickly found the inn called Yangui.

Standing outside the inn, Yun Xi raised his head and glanced at the not-so-luxurious inn. After completely hiding his spiritual power, he walked in.

Arriving at the front desk, Yun Xi directly showed his Heavenly Spirit Order and asked: "Hello, I would like to ask if Xiao Lingyuan and Ye Nianhan live here?"

The person guarding the front desk is a middle-aged orc man. He has seen Tianling Ling several times in the past few days, and Yun Xi is obviously more senior.

Therefore, he didn't hide anything at all and replied directly: "Yes, yes, they live in Room 1 and Room 2 on the fourth floor respectively."

"Thank you."

After getting the answer, Yun Xi glanced at Bai Qing and Niu Wenhua. The two demons understood, and immediately held their breath and concentrated, and followed Yun Xi quietly upstairs.

The soles of their feet crossed the stairs without making a sound. Soon, they had reached the fourth floor.

"Room 1 and Room 2..."

Yun Xi took off her bamboo hat, murmured silently, and followed the house number to find it.

Found it.

The first thing that caught his eye was Room No. 2, which was Ye Nianhan's room. Yun Xi tiptoed to the door of the room, listening to the goings on in the room.

"Well... Xiaoyuan, you, please be gentle..."

A faint humming sound passed through the door panel and faintly reached Yun Xi's ears. Yun Xi blinked.

"Huh? I didn't even try hard! Nianhan, you can't do it. Two fingers can't bear it. If I use three, wouldn't you have to cry?"

"You just cried! I'm just... um~ I'm not used to it. After all, Xiao Xi has never been like this... I've never done this to me."

"What? You still want Xiao Xi to do it for you? I'm not saying that, just like Xiao Xi, her craftsmanship in this area is definitely not as good as mine! Next time we meet, I'll ask her to do it for me. If it doesn't work, I'll have to do it for me.

I passed on all my skills to her. Tsk!"

"Ah~~ Slow down! How can it be so fast!"

"Hey~ You ask a lot, you can do it yourself next time!"

……

The conversation in the room reached Yun Xi's ears, and Yun Xi's fair little face instantly turned red in just a few seconds. Her charming appearance made people want to suck hard on her face right away.

One bite!

‘This… this… what kind of talk is this! Xiao Yuan’er and Nian Han, what on earth are they doing?!’

Yun Xi's brain was shut down, and white gas was coming out of her head like a pressure cooker!

Bai Qing sat on Yun Xi's shoulder, and the fox ears pressed against the door panel also heard the conversation inside. As a snow fox, it was full of doubts.

‘What are Xiao Lingyuan and the others talking about?’

Bai Qing glanced at Yun Xi, whose face was already red, and then turned to look at Niu Wenhua.

Niu Wenhua shook her head, Niu Nao was also puzzled.

Scratch...

Bai Qing scratched Yun Xi's neck with her tail. The itching sensation made Yun Xi come back to her senses immediately. Her eyes widened, her nose and mouth gasped, and her mood was particularly complicated.

"You, don't come in yet."

She sent a message to Bai Qing and Niu Wenhua, then reached out to pick up Bai Qing and put it on Niu Wenhua's shoulders, signaling them to stay outside the door.

Bai Qing and Niu Wenhua looked puzzled, but they thought there might be something going on inside that was not suitable for them to know, so they didn't ask any more questions and just quietly walked aside, waiting for Yun Xi to go in first.<

/p>

Yun Xi stood at the door, took a deep breath, pursed her lips, and after making up her mind, finally opened the door and walked in.

‘As the eldest sister, I have to correct their mistakes!’

Push the door, enter, close the door.

All in one go.

Then, Yun Xi's voice suddenly sounded: "Xiao Lingyuan! Ye Nianhan! What are you doing...?"

The menacing roar stopped abruptly at the last moment, and Yun Xi stared blankly at the scene in front of her.

Ye Nianhan was lying face down on the bed, while Xiao Lingyuan was sitting on the edge of the bed. The former's round and smooth calves were resting on the latter's thighs. Xiao Lingyuan held Ye Nianhan's feet with one hand and made a fist with the other hand.

He protruded the knuckles of his middle and index fingers and pressed hard on the soles of Ye Nianhan's feet.

The conversation just now originated from the massage given by Xiao Lingyuan to Ye Nianhan.

Yun Xi's intrusion made both of them startled, but then they immediately reacted.

"Xiao Xi! Why are you here?!"

The joy on Xiao Lingyuan's face, who was helping Ye Nianhan press the soles of her feet a second ago, bloomed as quickly as spring flowers. She dropped Ye Nianhan and rushed towards Yun Xi!

"Xiao Xi!!"

Yun Xi still stood there blankly, with an expression on her face like "Who am I? Where am I? What am I thinking?"

Ye Nianhan also got up from the bed and walked over wearing clean pink slippers, with a look of surprise on his face as well: "Xiao Xi, why are you here!"

Xiao Lingyuan hugged Yun Xi, rubbing her pretty face against Yun Xi's face, and said in a sweet voice: "Xiao Xi~~ Why did you come here suddenly! You didn't even prepare yourself for me, I'm so happy! Ugh!

"嘤嘤~~"

Feeling the warm and soft touch on her cheek, Yun Xi woke up as if her soul had returned to her body.

‘Be prepared in your heart... I am the one who is unprepared in my heart. Fortunately, everything is not what I thought, otherwise the surprise... I am afraid it will turn into a shock.'

She coughed twice, throwing away her unhealthy thoughts just now, and at the same time helplessly stretched out her hand to push away the clingy Xiao Lingyuan.

"What are you doing? We just posted it when we first met. Please move your hand away from my feet."

Xiao Lingyuan looked back at Ye Nianhan with a smile: "Nianhan, Xiao Xi thinks your feet are smelly."

Ye Nianhan raised his leg directly, raising one foot to the same height as Xiao Lingyuan, and hooked his round and round toes: "Smell it, do you smell it?"

"Bah! I don't want to smell it!"

Xiao Lingyuan turned her head away, looked at Yun Xi again, and said excitedly: "Xiao Xi, tell me, tell me, why did you suddenly appear here?"

Yun Xi looked at Xiao Lingyuan, who was full of excitement, and said with a smile: "I'm not the only one who appears here. Bai Qing and Niu Wenhua are also here."

The two demons outside the door heard Yun Xi read their names and walked in.

The appearance of the three of them undoubtedly surprised Xiao Lingyuan and Ye Nianhan.

But immediately, Xiao Lingyuan's mind turned around again.

"Okay Xiao Xi, it's okay if you secretly came to Tianshou Continent without telling me, but the first people you went to meet were Bai Qing and Niu Wenhua! You're going too far!"

"..."

Yun Xi opened her mouth and looked at the aggrieved Xiao Lingyuan in shock, her heart was so raw.

Is this... the way girls think...

------Digression------

Again, every time I write about how Yun Xi’s forces get along, I become more comfortable with it. 嘤嘤嘤~
