Chapter 261: Let Them See the World

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Have a baby with Xiao Jin?

Su Ying didn’t even need to think to conclude that it was impossible. “Ling, be good. Have you ever thought about a problem?”

The younger toddler Ling tilted her head and looked at Su Ying innocently. “What?”

“If you have a younger brother or sister, perhaps Mother will have even less time to accompany you and your big brother.”

“Why?”

“Because Mother needs to take time to take care of your younger brother or sister. My time every day is limited. If I give time to your younger brother or sister, doesn’t that mean 1 don’t have time to accompany you and big brother?”

Ling was a little confused, but she also felt that her Mother’s words made sense!

However, the older toddler Ji said, “Mother, I am grown up now. There’s no need for Mother and Father to accompany me. Mother and Father should make more younger brothers and sisters!”

Su Ying swore that Aunt Zhao must have taught Ji this!

Achoo!

Aunt Zhao, who was eating with Bai Shuang and the others in the rear courtyard, sneezed violently.

“Aunt Zhao, did you catch a cold?” Bai Shuang asked with concern.

Aunt Zhao rubbed her nose. She did not have a runny nose. It shouldn’t be a cold, right?

“I’m fine, I’m fine. I wonder if the City Lord gained weight because there’s a baby in her tummy…”

Yang Zhong and the others stayed in the city for two days. When they left, Su Ying asked the Orange Guardian to bring him some medicine to treat colds and bruises. Yang Zhong accepted them like they were treasures and expressed his gratitude to Su Ying many times before leaving with the warriors.

Yang Zhong left Sky Alpha City and looked up at the city gate that towered into the clouds. Living in such a place could indeed save them a lot of trouble. However, from their perspective, they were already used to being free and did not like the feeling of being cooped up in a cage. To them, this towering city wall was a cage.

As soon as Yang Zhong and the others moved far away, a group of people walked out from the shadows.

They looked at the city wall in front of them with astonishment in their eyes. “What the hell is this place? This city wall is much higher than the city wall of the capital city.”

“Sky Alpha City.” Someone who knew answered.

“Sky Alpha City?”

“I heard from the people who had dealings with this place say that it is a very strange place. If ordinary people enter it, they won’t be able to come out.”

“But the footprints of those tribesmen disappeared here. They must have hidden inside. Are we going to give up just like that? You all know what kind of personality the Second Master is. If he finds out that we went back without doing anything, we will only end up like those idiots.”

It was difficult to advance, but to retreat meant death.

For a moment, they were in a dilemma.

A tall and thin man with only one eye said menacingly, “What are you afraid of? There are so many of us. I don’t believe that they will turn into monsters. There must be an entrance here. Spread out and search. See if we can sneak in to gather some information.”

“Yes, Sir.”

These people did not know that the moment they appeared outside the city gate, they were discovered by the black-robed men standing guard.

The city walls were very tall and thick, but in order to ensure the best defense, the first empress had built sentry posts into the city walls. The people on guard would stand on the high stone steps and observe the situation outside through a concealed hole.

However, after the second empress ascended the throne, she was full of confidence in herself and the puppets of Sky Alpha City, so she removed these guards from the sentry posts. Wei Ji had never seen those sentries before, and when it was her turn to be the empress, she did not arrange for them to stand guard.

After Xiao Jin read through the historical records of Sky Alpha City, he once again arranged for people to stand guard at the sentry posts.

The black-robed man watched as those people dispersed. He then got someone to take over his post while he headed toward the palace.

Su Ying was about to head to the residential area. Tiger Might had said that because the residences in the residential area were not clustered together in large swathes, many of the tribesmen were scattered and villages had been broken up. Su Ying was worried that there would be conflicts when too many disparate groups of people lived together, so she wanted to go over and take a look.

“City Lord, the black slave requests an audience.”

Su Ying, who had just stepped out, sat back down. Immediately, the black-robed man walked in.

“City Lord.”

“What is it?”

“Black Slave found a group of people sneaking around outside the city.”

“Oh?”

Su Ying slowly sat up straight. “Where have they gone now?”

“Black Slave saw them spread out on both sides of the city wall. Black Slave doesn’t know what they are going to do, but Black Slave has asked Gray Slave to follow them to find out.”

“Mm-hmm. Capture two for interrogation.”

“Yes, City Lord.”

After the black slave left, Su Ying was in no hurry to head to the residential area. These people were most likely people from the Nan State who had followed the foot tracks to this place.

Su Ying thought for a moment. Eventually, she decided to ask the Green Guardian to send someone to the training ground to pass a message to Xiao Jin, informing him of this matter.

After Xiao Jin received the news, he immediately told Jiang Yang to wait for the gray slave at the entrance so that he could interrogate them as soon as those people were captured.

The sky gradually darkened. After the sun set in the west, the sky turned dark particularly fast.

Su Ying and the others had just finished dinner when Jiang Yang arrived.

Before the sky turned dark, the gray-robed men caught two people. They could not withstand Jiang Yang’s methods at all and confessed in less than an hour.

“Your Highness, they said that they were sent by the Li Clan of the Nan State to kill the people of those tribes. However, they didn’t expect those tribesmen to be prepared and the tribesmen escaped. After they followed the foot tracks, they found their way to the outside of the city and were looking for a way to enter.”

Xiao Jin and Su Ying exchanged a glance. They both understood each other’s intentions in their respective gazes.

“If that’s the case, then let them come in and take a look,” Su Ying said with a soft chuckle.

Xiao Jin’s expression was a little icy. “We have to let them see the world.”

Jiang Yang looked at the two of them and felt his hair stand on end. He swore that he would never antagonize these two people in his lifetime!

The group of people sent by the Li Clan had dispersed and run around the periphery of the city. They ran until the second night, but they still could not find out where the entrance was.

Just as they were in a dilemma, they suddenly heard a slight movement on the city wall.

They quickly hid in the dark and saw a few people coming out from the crack that was the exit. Only then did they realize that the entrance was embedded in the wall. No wonder they couldn’t find it no matter how hard they tried.

After those people came out, the entrance behind them was not closed.

Upon seeing this, the people hiding in the dark quickly approached the entrance. “You guys follow me in. The rest of you wait outside.”

“Yes, Sir.”

The leader quickly led his men and slipped in under the cover of darkness.

Not long after they entered, the entrance gradually closed with a click.

The people standing guard outside looked at the city wall that had reverted to its original state and felt a little uneasy.

“What the hell is this place? Did we fall into a trap?”

These words made the people guarding outside look worried.

After those people slipped in through the entrance, they felt their way forward in the dark. However, the more they walked, the more they felt that something was wrong.. When they raised their head, they met pairs of glinting dark green eyes…
