258: Yunlu City

The city Li Qi was heading to was named Yunluo City, a massive city with a population exceeding three million.

Yunluo City is very special; it is located at a transportation hub, occupying an important strategic position, and thus many large forces are involved in it, making it a colossal city ruled by three World Kings.

That's right.

In Yunluo City, there are indeed three different royal families who govern together, and to some extent, the situation in Yunluo City is also very complex.

On the way to Yunluo City, Li Qi consumed 3 million Potential Points, raising the 【Nine Worlds Unification Method】 he obtained from the Phoenix Lord to the Major Achievement stage.

Next, he only needed to find a method of seeking life from death, and he could attempt to Breakthrough to the “ten realms” Realm.

Li Qi came to seek an Opportunity, and to avoid attracting too much attention and commotion, Li Qi concealed his World King Realm strength and arrived at Yunluo City as a Yan Fa Realm expert.

Despite this, when Li Qi flew down from the sky and landed at the city gate of Yunluo City, he still attracted many gazes.

At the entrance of Yunluo City, people came and went, and many looked at Li Qi's figure, their eyes revealing reverence.

“That is a Yan Fa Realm expert!”

“So strong! So young!”

“I wonder which great family's young talent he is?”

“I don't know him.”

“I don't know him either; he's probably not from this area. If he really were a young talent from one of the nearby great families... it's impossible that no one would know him.”

The Realm Li Qi currently displayed was Nascent Divinity Realm - Peak Stage, which was neither ignored by people, making him a small transparent, nor overly feared by the local forces, causing them to be alert.

Yan Fa Realm was the most suitable.

Li Qi walked straight into the city gate without looking sideways.

Yunluo City was very large, covering dozens of miles in area, with pavilions, waterside structures, and magnificent palaces standing in dense rows.

Within the city, roads crisscrossed, traffic flowed endlessly, and shops and restaurants lined the streets, presenting a scene of prosperous grandeur.

“What an extraordinary grand city.”

“It would be impossible for such an important city to exist in the Lower Realm... Only in this Upper Realm!”

Li Qi's footsteps spanned two Realms, and only here could he see such a shocking and important city.

As Li Qi walked down the street, considering where to go next, a tender voice suddenly sounded behind him.

“Esteemed sir, this must be your first time in Yunluo City, right?”

“Do you need a guide?”

Li Qi turned his head and saw an eight or nine-year-old boy standing behind him.

The boy was dressed simply, but his movements were nimble, and his eyes sparkled, indicating he was very clever.

Li Qi smiled: “How do you know this is my first time in Yunluo City?”

The boy chuckled: “I've been a guide for a long time; seeing so many people, I can naturally tell who's here for the first time and who isn't.”

“Sir, I have grown up in Yunluo City since childhood and am familiar with everything in the city. Choosing me as your guide will surely not disappoint you.”

Li Qi did not refuse and directly tossed a mid-grade yuan stone into the boy's hand: “Alright, you it is. Is one mid-grade yuan stone enough?”

The boy was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly: “Enough, more than enough.”

Li Qi also stated his request: “I've traveled a long way and am tired. I want to find a place to sit and eat something. Is there a suitable place?”

The boy immediately led the way for Li Qi: “Sir, please follow me. If you come to Yunluo City, you must try the golden luan jade wings at Zuiyue Restaurant. That is a rare delicacy.”

Li Qi gladly followed, and as they walked and chatted, Li Qi also learned the boy's name, Ou Bai.

Ou Bai enthusiastically introduced the situation of Yunluo City to Li Qi, and Li Qi quickly became familiar with Yunluo City.

The two walked through several long streets and finally arrived at Zuiyue Restaurant.

After welcoming Li Qi into the restaurant, a waiter quickly came to greet them. They chose a table by the window on the second floor and sat down, and soon several of Zuiyue Restaurant's signature dishes were served.

The golden luan jade wings were also brought to the table. It was said to be made from the wings of a very rare demonic bird. Li Qi took a bite, and the taste was indeed excellent.

The golden luan jade wings, served with a secret sauce and cooked to perfection, had tender and juicy meat, a smooth yet non-greasy texture, and a long-lasting flavor.

Li Qi, having achieved the World King Realm, had long since entered the state of Bigu, meaning he would not starve even if he did not eat for a long time. However, there was no harm in eating, especially such a delicacy?

When it was time to enjoy, one should certainly enjoy it thoroughly.

As Li Qi ate heartily, Ou Bai stood beside him. He was just a guide and could not sit at the table with Li Qi to eat.

But Li Qi heard Ou Bai swallowing, and he couldn't help but smile.

“I'm not used to being watched while eating. You sit down and eat with me too.”

Ou Bai was startled and quickly refused: “Sir, I'll just stand... How dare I sit with you?”

Ou Bai was very proper; he was just a guide, and his strength was low, only at the Human Yuan Realm, a world apart from Li Qi, so he immediately refused.

But Li Qi shook his head and said nonchalantly: “If I tell you to sit, then sit. Why so much nonsense?”

“If you don't, I'll find someone else.”

Hearing Li Qi say this, Ou Bai immediately knew that Li Qi was intentionally taking care of him. His eyes reddened slightly, and he immediately said.

“This junior obeys, and... thank you, sir.”

Ou Bai also sat down beside Li Qi, picked up a cup of tea, and respectfully offered a toast to Li Qi.

Ou Bai also got to eat the legendary golden luan jade wings. His family was ordinary and his strength low, so in the past, when he guided people, he would just watch others eat. Today, he finally got to truly eat these golden luan jade wings, and his heart felt even more grateful towards Li Qi.

As the two ate and chatted, the atmosphere became increasingly harmonious. Ou Bai answered every question Li Qi asked without reservation, holding nothing back.

Just then, there was a commotion downstairs in the restaurant, a sudden clamor.

Li Qi turned his head and saw a group of people walking through the street. The man leading them had red hair and fiery red eyes that emitted a faint glow. This person's strength was considerable; he was clearly a Nascent Divinity Realm - Peak Stage expert.

As the red-haired man walked down the street, he attracted many people's attention, and Ou Bai quietly began to explain to Li Qi.

“Sir, that red-haired man is named Zhou Lin, a direct descendant of the three World Kings of Yunluo City.”

Ou Bai had told Li Qi earlier that Yunluo City was governed by three World Kings, and the three great royal families were the Kong Family, the Gu Family, and the Zhou Family, and this Zhou Lin was a member of the Zhou Family.

Li Qi nodded slightly: “Why are so many people looking at Zhou Lin? Is he famous?”

Ou Bai immediately said: “Of course, Zhou Lin is very powerful... He ranks third among the young disciples of the various families in Yunluo City!”

No sooner had he spoken than Zhou Lin, who was downstairs in the restaurant, suddenly stopped. He turned his head, his gaze fixed on Ou Bai on the second floor, and a surge of ferocious Qi erupted.

“You yellow-haired brat, how dare you criticize us?”

“Damn it!”

With that, Zhou Lin's long sword was unsheathed from his waist, and an incomparably sharp Sword Qi slashed towards Ou Bai.
