"To the city gate."

Su Tang leaned out of the car window and shouted outside. The silver-white wolf slowed down and turned to look at her, as if waiting for the man inside to give orders.

No matter how favored she is, she still has no decision-making power here, and her freedom is based on Chris's tacit consent.

"Go to the city gate!" she repeated, with some anxiety and toughness.

The carriage stopped, and pedestrians on the street cast inquiring glances at them from time to time. Su Tang sat back in his chair and just wasted time with him.

Neither of them said a word, and the scene was awkwardly silent for a moment.

Chris didn't keep her waiting long.

He whispered, "Listen to her."

After receiving the order, the carriage changed direction and started moving again.

When they arrived at the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city saluted Chris. Chris took out a silver token from his arms. The soldiers didn't dare to take it and just looked at it twice before letting it go.

But when Su Tang followed him and was about to go out together, two hands blocked her way.

"Chris." Su Tang called Chris. Chris turned back in confusion, "She is with me."

The soldiers looked at each other awkwardly and explained, "Sir, the elder has ordered that your female companion not be allowed to leave the city."

It seems that what Krollin said before was not empty talk. As long as he doesn't agree, Su Tang can't leave the black market at all. These soldiers have already recognized her. Even if she gets Chris's token, she can't get out.

Unless Chris wants to take her out.

"Asshole! She's mine. Do I need his permission to take her out?"

Chris took Su Tang's hand and walked straight out of the city gate, feeling very safe.

Even his expression was still not normal, with an unknown storm surging in his eyes, as if a madman was trying hard to pretend to be normal.

Continuous rain flowed down the stairs into the underground river, and the two walked up along the water curtain stairs.

The moment he saw normal light, Su Tang's breathing became heavier.

She stared at the back of Chris's neck, hesitated for a long time, raised her hand and chopped at him quickly and quickly, with steady, accurate and fierce movements, not giving Chris any time to react.

Chris sensed it, but it was too late. His pupils dilated and his eyes looked hurt and lonely.

Why, everyone abandons him?

Chris fainted before he could say what was in his mind.

With the strength of the Weak Beast King and the unparalleled trust in him, even if Su Tang wanted to attack him, Chris would not be able to react in time.

She took off Chris's coat, put it on herself, put her arms around the man's waist, put her arms around his shoulders, and helped him out.

Su Tang had already gotten what she wanted and could have just left Chris here. However, when she thought about how the little pervert had helped her a lot and that he was Krollin's only brother, she still restrained herself even though Krollin wanted to kill him.

It will be very chaotic afterwards, and only having bargaining chips in hand can make her feel at ease.

She supported Chris as they walked through the streets, the rain soaking her to the bone.

If she hadn't wanted to avoid attracting attention, she would have picked up Chris and run away. There was no way she would have been so slow.

Cedric's manor is quite far from here, and it would take too much time to walk back.

She stopped a car, a car for ordinary people, which was somewhat similar to the rickshaws in the Republic of China era. The continuous heavy rain made the wings of the Feather Clan heavy, and the sky was no longer safe, so the Feather Clan's carrier beasts no longer came out to pick up passengers.

Otherwise, the speed could be even faster. After all, land transportation can only take established roads and cannot ignore obstacles.

Su Tang seemed to be supporting Chris, but in fact she was holding him up with one hand around his waist and got him into the car. She said to the orc pulling the car in front, "Let's go to the Peacock King's residence."

The two men were well-dressed and looked wealthy, and such people rarely rode in inferior vehicles like theirs.

Normally I wouldn't even look at them.

The brown bear picked up the leash, turned to look at her, and asked tentatively: "Saint, are you really going to the Peacock King's mansion?"

"Can I still lie to you? I have money."

"What I mean is that you can choose some better driving equipment."

Su Tang's face turned black. She didn't even bother to be picky, so how could this man choose her?

"Hurry up, I'm in a hurry."

Seeing her firm attitude, the bear said nothing more and rushed out with the rope in its mouth.

Speaking of money, she remembered that she left her handbag at the ancestral home. She was wearing a skirt and had no other place to put her things, so she could only reach out and touch Chris.

Then her face turned even darker.

Why does Chris never bring any money with him when he goes out?

Helplessly, she could only take off the earrings, which seemed to be quite valuable. If all else failed, she could just use it as transportation fare.

When they arrived at the destination, Su Tang got off the car first and handed him a pair of earrings.

"I think I forgot to bring money. Take this as the fare."

The bear beast looked at the bright red earrings in her palm. They were small and exquisite, and were obviously made by a famous craftsman. How could he dare to accept them?

Even if you sell it, this kind of thing has no clear way to get it and people will suspect it of theft. If the law enforcement team is attracted, you will be in trouble.

The law enforcement team will show no mercy to these lowest-class mixed-bloods.

Permanent residency in Guangming City is hard to come by, and short-term residency is also a matter of fierce competition. People in higher positions are used to a life of luxury, so how could they be willing to do things that lower-class people do? Therefore, every year Guangming City opens up some short-term residency to allow those mixed bloods to come in.

Even though they know that there is oppression everywhere, many people are still trying to squeeze in. This bear beast looks timid, but it has the strength of seven stars. If it were left outside, it would not have such a miserable life.

It's just that they are too eager for a stable life.

Being able to get shelter from the elements, not having to wander around and live in poverty, what does it matter if you live a miserable life? As long as you work hard, you can always live a decent life.

He quickly waved his hands and shook his head: "How dare I take your money? Forget about the fare this time."

It's better to earn less money on fares than to get into trouble.

Su Tang saw that he didn't dare to accept it, so he asked him to wait here for a while, and then ran towards the guards outside the manor.

When the guards saw her approaching, they drew their swords.

"Stop, this is the elders' residence, no outsiders are allowed to approach."

She took off her coat and lifted her wet hair, revealing her pretty little face.

"See who I am!"

The guards are not static, they are human beings and need rest, so it is normal that some of them have not seen Su Tang.

They looked at Su Tang suspiciously, full of doubts.

"I want to see Fanta! Tell Fanta to come and see me! If Fanta isn't here, Butler Leco will do!"

The guards hurried to report. They had to take their superiors' names seriously even though they didn't recognize them. Being guards under the elders, they had to have such good eyesight.

Butler Leke came out quickly with an umbrella, and when he saw Su Tang, he ran towards her anxiously.

Leko is Cedric's butler, with black hair and green eyes. He is also a member of the Feather Clan, and he looks like a husband when he smiles.

"You are finally back. Everyone has missed you a lot during this period."

He moved the umbrella over Su Tang's head and smiled gently.

"Do you have money?" Su Tang pointed at the brown bear waiting outside, "I haven't paid the fare yet, can you lend me some first? I'll ask Cedric to pay you back later."

"It is my honor to serve you."

He held the umbrella for Su Tang, and the two walked in front of the brown bear. Lie Ke took out a silver coin from his pocket and said, "No need to change."

"What is this?" He looked at the unconscious man in the car again. After receiving Su Tang's signal, Lie Ke carried the man out.

The brown bear was flattered and thanked the driver. He pulled the cart away in a hurry. His legs were trembling and his face was full of astonishment.

What kind of important person did he bring? He actually asked the Peacock King's chief steward to come and pick him up in person, and he was so kind!

Su Tang took the umbrella and replied nonchalantly, "Chris, Krollin's younger brother."

Lie Ke staggered and nearly fell.

"What?! How could you bring him back!"
