Chapter 41: Arrival at Tiandou City

Chapter 41 Return to Tiandou City

Within the Tiandou Empire
Two days ago, after killing the entire Li family, Chen Xuan did not stay and left the village with Chen Yiyi.

He took his sister on a carriage and headed north, this time their destination was Tiandou City.

inside the carriage

Chen Xuan looked at this pitiful little girl with mixed feelings. Even though he was not the original body but a time traveler, he couldn't help but feel emotional and integrate himself into the identity of this brother.

"Yiyi, I'm sorry for making you suffer over the years." He stroked the little girl's hair to express his apology.

Chen Yiyi's jewel-sized eyes were very lively, but at this moment they were tearful and full of grievances. Now that her brother was back, she didn't have to live so strong and finally had someone to rely on.

She threw herself into Chen Xuan's arms, clutching his clothes tightly, and cried softly.

This is a little girl of about twelve or thirteen years old. Her eyes are filled with tears, which are rolling down her cheeks, and her red face is covered with tears.

Suddenly, she seemed to realize something, and quickly stood up and wiped her tears with her patched sleeves, fearing that she would dirty Chen Xuan's clean clothes.

Witnessing this subtle movement, Chen Xuan's nose suddenly felt sore and he felt mixed emotions.

He couldn't imagine how the other person had survived in that place during the three years he was away, and how she had become such a cautious person.

Chen Xuan had mixed feelings. In a place like that, would she be able to eat enough? Would she have new clothes to wear? Would she be bullied?

His eyes fell on Yi Yi, who was wearing simple clothes that were washed white, with the sleeves and trouser legs patched up and in tatters, but she was still wearing them without any new clothes to change into.

Chen Xuan was angry. It would have been fine if he had not come, but now that he knew about it, he really couldn't bear it. How old was Yi Yi at that time? Letting such a young girl stay in that kind of place and endure such hardship, was the original person still a human being?

It’s really not a thing!

Although the two-day journey was long, it was not until the morning of the next day that they arrived at Tiandou City due to the slow carriage.

Outside the city gate stands a hundred-meter-high city wall, more than thirty meters thick, built of granite, majestic and domineering.

Such a city wall alone has four sides in the form of a quadrilateral to block the attack of foreign enemies.

The carriage stopped. The royal family had a rule that carriages of outsiders were not allowed to enter.

Chen Xuan got out of the car directly, holding Yiyi's dusty little hand, and walked towards the city gate.

"This is where we'll live for some time to come. If you don't like it, we can change it later." He gave his sister a sunny smile.

The city is bustling with people, and you can see many businessmen, soul masters, and ordinary people coming here.

The streets are prosperous and bustling with traffic. There are many shops, restaurants, hotels, etc., and the goods are dazzling.

It was the first time for Chen Yiyi to come to such a big and prosperous place. Her eyes were confused, her little hands pinched the corners of her clothes, and she felt a little uneasy.

Chen Xuan held her hand and walked on the busy street, wondering whether he should go to his sister's house for dinner first or go back to the hotel first.

Suddenly, he felt a resistance. Looking back, he saw Yiyi had stopped and was staring at something in a daze.

The little girl stood at the door of a clothing store, staring at a little blue skirt inside with her big eyes unable to move away.

But soon, she withdrew her gaze, her eyes dimmed, and she lowered her head to look at her toes, standing there at a loss.

Chen Xuan felt upset. What a pitiful little girl! Her life must have been so miserable since she was little. She couldn't even own a piece of clothing that she liked.

He smiled kindly and said, "Tell me which one you like and I'll buy it for you."

"But it's very expensive. Yiyi doesn't want it." She was afraid that Chen Xuan had no money, so she took a lingering look at the skirt and turned to leave.

Chen Xuan took her little hand and walked straight into the clothing store.

He took out a bag of gold coins, waved his hand, and said, "Pack up all these skirts, shoes, and clothes over there for me."

The female clerk's eyes immediately glowed green, and with a professional smile, she enthusiastically introduced it to Chen Xuan. "Sir, this is the latest style in our store. It is a beautiful work, created by the master Moto."

"No need to say, I want them all." Chen Xuan repeated.

The female clerk was smiling from ear to ear, and she was really happy. It seemed that a nouveau riche had come.

Soon she had packed up her dozen or so dresses and the latest styles of women's clothing.

After leaving the clothing store, Chen Xuan turned around and took Yi Yi into a restaurant, which was the most famous restaurant in the area.

Soon, the waiter brought out plates of exquisite dishes, including fish, meat, wine and food.

A large table was gathered.

Chen Yiyi looked at the table full of food, her big eyes unable to move away, and she swallowed unconsciously.

She stared at the chicken leg on the table, looking at it infatuatedly. She wanted it very much, but was also worried about something.

Chen Yiyi had never seen so much food since she was a child, and she never dared to think about it. She was already satisfied as long as she could have enough food.

Now, there was a table full of delicious fish and meat in front of her. Her stomach was growling with hunger, but she just stared at it with envy and didn't dare to pick up her chopsticks.

Chen Xuan felt extremely distressed. He would make it up to Yiyi for all the injustice he had suffered in the past.

He picked up a chicken leg and quickly stuffed it into Yiyi's mouth.

"Eat quickly, or it will get cold. I have plenty of money now, don't worry."

The moment the fragrant chicken leg entered her mouth, Chen Yiyi could no longer hold back. The aroma of the meat filled her taste buds. It was so delicious.

When she was a child, her favorite thing was chicken legs, but after her parents left, she never ate them again.

For so many years, she lived with her uncle's family. She had to serve tea and water and do hard labor since she was a child. She had not eaten meat for a long time, let alone this kind of food.

Chen Xuan didn't pick up his chopsticks, but just watched Yi Yi wolfing down the food. He didn't think she was unladylike, he just felt distressed.

He kept picking up food for the little girl and felt very satisfied just watching her eat the meat in big mouthfuls.

Not long after, Chen Yiyi was finally full, but there was still a lot of food left on the table. She was already full, but was afraid of wasting food, so she had to stuff as much as possible into her mouth.

"It's okay, you can pack it up. Don't force yourself." Chen Xuan stopped her with a smile. He was really worried that she would have problems with the food.

At this time, Chen Yiyi realized a problem, looked at Chen Xuan nervously, and asked: "Brother, these dishes look so expensive, did Yiyi eat too much?"

She felt uneasy. Her brother had already spent enough money on her, and now he had an expensive lunch. She was very worried that Chen Xuan would go bankrupt because of her.

Chen Xuan laughed, patted her little head, and said, "Don't worry, eat whatever you want. I will have no problem supporting you for the rest of your life."

One hundred thousand gold soul coins, as long as they are not used to buy valuable items such as soul bones and soul guides, and are used in ordinary people's lives, will be enough for ten lifetimes.

"Brother, Yiyi will eat less and help you make money in the future!" The little girl said to me seriously, her big eyes clear and innocent.

Obviously, this is a person who cannot hide any of his thoughts.

"Don't worry about making money. As long as you are happy every day, I will be satisfied." Chen Xuan said.

Chen Yiyi was very confused, but still nodded in confusion.

After leaving the restaurant, Chen Xuan did not return to the previous hotel. Instead, he spent 10,000 gold soul coins to buy a three-story building in the suburbs. The building covered an area of ​​more than 200 square meters and also had a yard.

"This is our home for now. You take a rest first. I'll be back later if I have something to do."

After saying goodbye to Yiyi, Chen Xuan left quickly and headed towards Shrek Academy without stopping.
