Mu Meng Mountain.
The city of worry-free.
It was a quiet night, and thick clouds blocked the cold moonlight. Only the sparse candlelight in the city meant that there were still people who had not yet fallen asleep.
Lan Yue walked on the empty street. Except for a few scattered street lamps hanging under the eaves, there was only silent darkness.
Nearing the end of the street, she finally found an inn where she could rest, because this was the only one whose door was open.
"Girl, please come inside."
What greeted Lan Yue was a middle-aged woman with a plump figure and a pretty face. Her round eyes had already explored Lan Yue's entire body before she entered the inn.
After Lan Yue took her seat, the middle-aged woman immediately stepped forward and asked with a smile.
"I don't know which fairy mountain the girl comes from. I have been in Wuyou City for decades, and I have never seen a woman with such outstanding grace and grace like the girl."
Hearing this, Lan Yue replied with a smile on her lips.
"I just came to Heaven not long ago and I'm not very familiar with the City in the Sky, so I just walked around. What kind of place is this?"
Upon hearing this, a trace of joy flashed in the middle-aged woman's eyes.
"We are here in the Wuyou City located at the foot of Mumang Mountain. This floating island is under the jurisdiction of the Kunbai White House under the Kyushu Alliance.
The girl should know about the Kyushu Alliance, which is the top force in the Second Heaven. Our thirty-six islands in the Western Heaven are all within the sphere of influence of the Kyushu Alliance. "
Although it has been more than a year since Lan Yue entered the Sky City, she spent most of the year looking for traces of Xiaoyun near Linghu Lake.
It's just that the place is remote and inaccessible, so until now she still knows nothing about the distribution of forces in the heaven.
So, she asked curiously.
"Are the levels of power in the Sky City divided by heavenly levels? In which heaven is the highest level of power located?"
The middle-aged woman did not expect that the beautiful girl in front of her was so unfamiliar with the situation in the heaven. It seemed that she was going to have a big harvest today.
However, a man in gray clothes who was also resting in this inn saw all this. At this time, he was looking at Lan Yue, who had a confused look on his face.
The middle-aged woman nodded and replied.
"Yes, the girl is really smart. The city in the sky is indeed divided according to the hierarchy of heaven. As for the highest-level forces, it is too far out of reach for us low-level practitioners.
Therefore, we rarely ask about these things, but if you want to know, you can ask the owner of our inn, because he knows more things than me. "
"Oh, where is your boss? I want to ask him something."
Lan Yue's innocent look made the middle-aged woman feel like a treasure. She almost couldn't help laughing, but in order to avoid being suspected by others, the middle-aged woman immediately explained.
"Our boss is upstairs. If the girl is willing, I will take you to see our boss now. He is a kind and enthusiastic person. He will tell you whatever the girl wants to ask."
Speaking of it later, the excitement on the middle-aged woman's face could hardly be concealed. She had even imagined what kind of reward she would receive from the Lord. Such a once-in-a-lifetime good thing happened to her.
However, just when Lan Yue got up and was about to go upstairs with the middle-aged woman, a little girl sitting next to the man in gray suddenly laughed.
"Sister, you have to be careful. You might not be able to get back down after you go up."
Lan Yue turned to look at the little girl and saw that she was about ten years old, with a pair of beautiful big eyes full of heart-warming feelings.
"Kid, don't talk nonsense. I'm just taking her upstairs to meet our boss. How could she not come down?"
The middle-aged woman seemed to be very concerned about the little girl's naughty behavior, so she turned her attention to the man in gray next to the little girl.
"You don't care about your child. She will cause trouble sooner or later. Don't regret it then."
Lan Yue smiled slightly when she saw this.
"She is just a child. She can cause any trouble. The store does not have to worry about a child. She was just making a joke."
When the middle-aged woman heard this, she originally planned to give up. After all, taking Lan Yue upstairs to meet the boss was the business, and she was too lazy to pay attention to an ignorant child.
However, the little girl refused to give in. She even pulled up the sleeves of the man in gray and begged with an aggrieved look on her face.
"Uncle, uncle, stop her quickly, this beautiful sister is about to be eaten."
The middle-aged woman immediately said angrily when she heard this.
"Presumptuous, what are you talking about?"
Then, the middle-aged woman pointed at the man in gray and shouted.
"How do you teach your child and let her talk nonsense here? We are serious people. How can we do business if she talks like this? You should take your child and leave quickly. You are not welcome in our inn."
When Lan Yue saw that the middle-aged woman was angry, she quickly tried to persuade her.
"Staff, calm down, this matter happened because of me. In this case, I won't bother your boss, and you don't have to get angry with this little sister anymore. I think she just said it casually, and she didn't mean to slander her. What do you mean by your inn?"
Seeing that Lan Yue was not going to follow her upstairs, the middle-aged woman suddenly became anxious, but she still pretended to be calm on the surface and said to Lan Yue with a smile.
"Okay, okay, I won't argue with her, let her go. But the girl should follow me upstairs to sit. If you feel uncomfortable, then I will arrange a guest room for you upstairs, and the girl can just go and rest. Already."
Hearing this, Lan Yue suddenly looked embarrassed and hesitated without answering.
When the middle-aged woman saw this, she thought Lan Yue was suspicious, so she quickly explained.
"Girl, you can rest assured. Our inn is a century-old hotel in Wuyou City. If it were a shady hotel, no one would dare to come here.
If you don't believe me, take a look. There are still many guest rooms upstairs with lights still on, so the girl doesn't have to worry at all. "
"Yes, no one came because no one dared to come. Just because the lights are on doesn't mean there are people in the room. After all, you still want to trick this sister into following you upstairs."
Lan Yue didn't understand why the little girl believed that as long as she went upstairs with the store owner, nothing good would happen.
But when Lan Yue turned her eyes to the man in gray next to the little girl, he deliberately avoided Lan Yue's eyes. It was obvious that he was deliberately allowing the little girl to misbehave.
However, Lan Yue couldn't guess what they wanted to do. Maybe there was something wrong with this inn, but these things were not important because she had no intention of staying in the inn.
The middle-aged woman's repeated patience made the little girl even more aggressive. Now she wanted to throw the little girl out immediately.
Seemingly seeing through the frustrated look of the store owner, the little girl smiled even more proudly.
"Don't think I can't see it. You just want to take advantage of this sister. Otherwise, why aren't you so enthusiastic about us?"
The middle-aged woman's anger was almost uncontrollable, but when she saw the man in gray still calm and composed, she immediately changed her attitude.
"Since little sister is so sure that we are bad guys, you might as well go upstairs with us and take a look, so that the truth will be revealed."
After saying that, she glanced at the man in gray subconsciously, as if waiting for his reply, because in her opinion, everything the little girl did was under his instigation, otherwise how could a ten-year-old girl have such a problem? Such courage.
However, the man in gray never spoke. He didn't even raise his head to look at the store.
Seeing this, Lan Yue had no choice but to speak.
"There's no need to argue. In fact, I didn't plan to stay in the hotel."
The middle-aged woman asked suspiciously.
"It's so late. Girl, you're living on the street alone. Don't you just want to find a place to rest? Although I was misunderstood by my little sister and had some unpleasant experiences, there is no need for you to wrong yourself like this.
It's late at night outside now, and it's freezing cold
, where can you go as a single woman? How about I arrange two rooms for you upstairs, and you and your little sister live together. That's okay. "
When the little girl heard this, she pouted her little mouth and replied.
"If that's the case, I believe you are a good person."
Seeing that the little girl finally compromised, the middle-aged woman was secretly happy.
"I finally convinced this little ancestor, let's do good deeds today."
However, just when the middle-aged woman was about to turn around and go upstairs, she heard Lan Yue speak hesitantly.
"Forget it, I won't stay in the hotel."
At this time, even the little girl felt a little confused, and she blinked her big bright eyes and said to Lan Yue.
"Don't worry, sister. As long as Xiaoyun is with you, nothing will happen."
"What, your name is Xiaoyun?"
Seeing the surprised look on Lan Yue's face, the little girl thought she had said something wrong, but she nodded timidly and answered.
"Yes, my name is Xiaoyun, small and small, Yunxiang and Yun."
"Then what's your last name?"
"My last name is Shi."
"Oh, so your name is Shi Xiaoyun, then I know."
The stone in Lan Yue's heart finally fell to the ground, but the three people, including the man in gray, were puzzled by Lan Yue's behavior just now.
But Lan Yue would not tell them the real reason.
The little girl was the first one to react. She looked at Lan Yue with a smile and said.
"Isn't it nice? This is the name I gave myself."
"Uh...yeah, you're really awesome. That name is really nice."
Although Lan Yue was praising Shi Xiaoyun, she always felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. However, for the sake of her good intentions, Lan Yue tried her best to accept this fact.
Shi Xiaoyun was so happy when she heard Lan Yue's compliment that she almost jumped up immediately.
"Hehe, sister, you are so kind. Xiaoyun wants to sleep with you tonight."
"ah!"
"What's wrong? Sister, don't you want to live with Xiaoyun?"
Lan Yue's ears felt hot when she heard it. Her cheeks were slightly red and she replied shyly.
"No...it's not."
"why?"
"I have no money."
