Chapter 321 (1/2)

Familiar (1)

“I can enter directly? I lined up because everyone was lining up!” said Ye Lang.

“...”

The guards finally knew Ye Lang was as confused as what they said in the stories. The Light Riders had already told him he could enter directly, but this Ye Lang lined up instead because other people were lining up.

At the same time, the group of young people understood Ye Lang wasn’t as simple as they thought he was. Who was he?

“Who is he? Why do you believe him?”

“This gentleman is the genius doctor, the confused genius doctor who saved tens of thousands of people. If we don’t believe him, you think we would believe you, a bunch of kids who only know how to tell people who your dad is?” said the guard, the first half of his sentence very respectful, while the second half plain disgust.

Ye Lang earned the people’s respect with his own effort. In comparison, these kids were absolutely disgusting!

“Oh so that’s him…” muttered the people nearby. Ye Lang’s nickname was very well-known. However, most didn’t know his real name.

“Get in line if you still want to enter or we will not be so kind!” barked the guard.

They clenched their teeth, glared at Ye Lang, then left very reluctantly.

There was no one to blame. The only thing to blame was their awful luck to bump into Ye Lang!

“Yep, exactly! Leave!” cried Ye Lang excitedly, though he didn’t seem to intend to leave the line himself.

The guard looked at Ye Lang. When he was certain Ye Lang was still queuing up, he finally spoke, “Sir, why are you still in line?”

“To get into the city!”

Why are you still in line?! With your status, you can enter any gate in this place…

“... I think you should just come with us, we’ll bring you inside.”

“Oh, really? Would it affect other people?” he was worried he might take up another person’s spot.

“Sir, you lining up here WILL affect other people. You could’ve entered the city directly, why would you want to take up a spot in line?”

“Oh. Then enter we shall!” nodded Ye Lang, leaving the line. He entered Sheng City, the part on the mountain, for the first time in his life.

As he walked along the paths in the city, he realised there was perfect harmony between the buildings and the structure of the mountain, it was very pleasing to the eye.

This city had existed for thousands of years, its structures had undergone thousands of years of re-alignment too! After so long, it had arrived at a flawless state, attaining perfection.

It wasn’t the work of one person. Even the genius of the geniuses couldn’t do something so perfect!

Other than shopping, Ye Lang had another important task: to look for the place Ye Academy’s students were staying at. He would find Ye Lanyu and the rest there.
