After being reincarnated, I cultivated immortality.

Taking advantage of the chaos of the search, Chi Yi and her companions seized the opportunity to slip out of the Ji residence.

Then he found a deserted, dilapidated house far from the Ji residence and hid there.

Regardless, let's just get through today first.

Everyone shared their findings from today, and the following points can be summarized.

One or two days from now, the triennial Flower Fairy Election will begin.

Second, there is no city lord here, yet there are almost no evildoers.

Third, there are other cultivators in the city, but their exact number is unknown.

Based on the above points, Chi Yi and his companions decided to explore the city again the next day.

The next day, the group split up again and carefully observed the city.

Chi Yi was in charge of the area near the city gate, Hua Rongyi, Kong Bai, Yun Fan, and Lu Qiu were in charge of the four corners of the city (east, south, west, and north) respectively, and Ling Lili, Bai Shu, and Jin Haoyu were in charge of the city center.

Chi Yi watched near the city gate for a long time, but surprisingly, no one entered or left the city gate, which was very strange.

So she asked someone, "Sister, why haven't I seen anyone leave the city today? Is there no one living outside the city?"

The older woman who was being questioned gave her a strange look, her eyes sweeping over the sachet at her waist. Seeing how young she was, she figured her family hadn't told her about this. She replied, "What city? There aren't even city gates, how can you get out? Besides, the city is so nice, why go out? Didn't your parents tell you? The outside world is full of man-eating beasts. Going out is just courting death."

Hearing her words, Chi Yi frowned and looked at the city gate not far away. Suppressing her doubts, she pointed in the direction of the city gate and asked, "Big sister, what's that?"

The eldest sister glanced in the direction Chi Yi pointed and replied, "What's so interesting about a wall? Okay, I have something to do, I'll be going now." With that, she walked past Chi Yi and left.

After her eldest sister left, Chi Yi stopped a few more people and asked them the same question, and unsurprisingly, the answers were all the same.

Chi Yi arrived at the city gate. So, in their eyes, the city gate didn't even exist!

She planned to go out and take a look, but was stopped as if there really was an invisible wall, and what she saw was just an illusion.

I don't understand why this is happening when spiritual power is clearly unusable here.

Meanwhile, Jin Haoyu was sitting in a teahouse, listening to others talk about the wedding at the Ji family mansion the day before.

After all, he was involved, and he wanted to hear the final outcome.

"The Ji family's wedding yesterday was great, the food was really good, it's a pity you didn't go," a man said.

"Sigh, I can't help it, something came up and I was held up," one of the people next to him replied.

Another person asked mysteriously, "Do you know who the groom is?"

Someone chimed in, "Who is it?"

The man said, "It's that young master who's staying at the Ji family's place. I heard that he's always been in love with Miss Ji Yan and is willing to become her live-in son-in-law."

Those who didn't go asked in confusion, "Didn't I hear that the embroidered ball marriage contest chose a very handsome young man? Why was it changed?"

He explained, "Since you didn't go, you didn't know that the young master had run away, so we had to find a replacement at the last minute. But this can be considered a double blessing."

"That's right."

Hearing this, Jin Haoyu understood the situation and left to look around elsewhere.

As night fell, everyone returned to the dilapidated house.

After sharing their findings, the group felt increasingly that there was something strange about Hundred Flowers City, though they didn't yet know why. However, they believed that the truth would come to light soon.
