Is the Free State such an easy place to enter?
One should consider whether they are even worthy.
Su Yangâs pupils contracted sharply. âBig sis? Youâ¦â
Some of the fog began to clear.
For instance, why did Si Fuqing suddenly appear in the Muston Dukedom, only to vanish again? He couldnât contact her, nor could he find her.
LI Yuzhi had mentioned that the Free State wasnât like other regions; even stowaways couldnât make it through.
Without a pass or a residence permit, setting foot on that continent was a death sentence.
But rumors said it was a land paved with gold, rich in resources, so even the Yu family wanted to take a chance and break in.
âAnd the LI family is being overly optimistic,â Si Fuqing said calmly. âDo they really think entering the Free State will make them successful overnight? Once in, they might not even know how they died.â
The Free State had more forces and was even more chaotic. Even the Evolved Beings Alliance was only a part of it, which showed how intense the struggle was.
In Sijiu City, a family like the LI family was considered a major power, but in the Free State, theyâd be devoured by larger families without a chance to grow.
Yuejian poured a glass of red wine. âTelling them this wonât make them believe it. They wonât give up until they hit a dead end. They think because the Ji and Lu families are from the same roots as the Great Xia Empire, theyâll receive some care.â
âOh, right, those two families.â Si Fuqing touched her chin. âLittle Su, let me find two people who can help you.â
Information about the Free State was not publicly circulated.
Even people from other regions who went there for studies couldnât reach the top-tier forces.
The Ji and Lu families of the Free State were better known because they had originally come from the Great Xia Empire.
Si Fuqing first called Ji Yun. âYes, I need you to support my brother. In a few days is fine. Ah, Iâm busy with filming and recording shows. Okay, okay, Iâll send you two programs.â
More work to do.
Life wasnât easy, Sisi sighing.
âHello, little prodigy.â Si Fuqing then called Lu Xingci. âCan you come to the Great Xia Empire for a while? I need a favor. You ask why I didnât call your ig brother? Iâm afraid heâd start a fight.â
Lu Xingci reluctantly agreed, saying he would get the travel permit and arrive in the Great Xia Empire by the weekend.
In return, he asked Si Fuqing for a firewall system.
After making these two calls, Si Fuqing and Yuejian high-fived. âPerfect. If itâs not enough, Iâll find more people.â
She paused, musing, âBut what if the people I find are ones the LI family has never heard of?â
Yuejian sighed. âHaving too high a status is also a burden.â
Take sixth senior brother, for example.
In the Muston Dukedom, he held significant power, but no one knew he was also a formidable figure in the Free State.
Su Yang was speechless.
He was numb from the all the information he just obtained.
LI Yuzhi had also given him a lesson about the Free State, emphasizing the Ji and Lu families, and the fact that Ji Yun and Lu Xingci had co-created the 3D game âOracle.â
âOracleâ had become a global sensation, partly due to its Free State origins.
Even the Yu family had set up a gaming team to catch Ji Yunâs attention.
How did his sister know everyone?!
âAlright, if thereâs anything else, just tell me,â Si Fuqing said nonchalantly. âDonât keep it to yourself. If anyone bullies you, weâll hit back a hundredfold.â
Su Yang responded softly, then smiled wryly. âI donât think I have anything to repay you with.â
âSaving you is the best reward for me,â Si Fuqing said calmly. âDonât think about repaying me. Just take care of yourself.â
Su Yangâs emotions were complex. He was about to say something when Si Fuqing received a call and immediately jumped up. âIâm coming, Iâm coming!â
She grabbed her clothes and rushed out.
Yuejian explained, âThe big sponsor has arrived. Sheâs off.â
Su Yang was left speechless.
He recalled LI Yuzhiâs words about her being âtrustworthyâ and felt a headache coming on.
Downstairs.
A black car was parked at the studio entrance.
The car door opened, revealing a manâs profile.
Sunlight fell on his cuff, the golden embroidery shimmering with an aura of nobility.
âBoss, Iâve decided to give you a gift worth a billion,â Si Fuqing said as she approached. âArenât I good to you?â
Yu Xiheng, hearing this, turned slightly, a hint of amusement in his eyes. âA billion?â
âOf course,â Si Fuqing said seriously. âDonât doubt it. Elder Gu wanted to buy my embroidery for a billion, but I painfully refused. I think youâre more important.â
