Soaring through the back door, that is also a soaring!

Chapter 791: The Strange City of Stars
Jiang Youning suddenly wanted to see what the star stone looked like.

Since I have to stay here for half a month, I might as well go out for a walk.
Jun Qingyu had no objection to Jiang Youning's suggestion.

"If you want to see the Star Stone, I know a place where you can see it."

The three of them came to the main street of Xing Zhicheng.

"Why does it look so deserted here?"

Although there were people selling things on the streets, they did not shout out their wares.

They just put the prices of the things they want to sell on the stalls. If people passing by are interested, they will buy them. If not, they won't even look at them.

Not only that, people on the street are also quite indifferent to each other.

Everyone walked without looking around, as if everything around them had nothing to do with them.

Because they were wearing masks, Jiang Youning couldn't see the expressions on these people's faces clearly.

But even if you can't see it, you can guess that there must be no emotion on these people's faces at this moment.

Under the leadership of Jun Qingyu, the three came to a small shop.

At the door of the store stood a weather-beaten plaque with the words "Xingshi" vaguely written on it in black ink.

As we approached the store, we saw that the interior was just as tattered as the exterior, and the space was extremely small.

Apart from a table and a cabinet at the back for displaying merchandise, there was almost no space to step.

Jiang Youning looked at Jun Qingyu, asking with her eyes where the shadow of the star stone was.

Jun Qingyu blinked, indicating that there was no need to worry and that he would take care of everything.

Seeing this, Jiang Youning snorted and looked away.

Jun Qingyu looked at the only clerk and boss in the store, a thin old man, and said in a deep voice, "I want a star in the sky."

Hearing this, the old man who was resting with his eyes closed opened his eyes, looked at Jun Qingyu for a second, then pointed to a grid on the shelf and said, "The things are right there, go get them yourself."

After hearing this, Jun Qingyu stretched out his hand to a place not far away, opened the folded wooden board, and a black glass bottle appeared in it.

Even though the bottle is black, you can still see through the bottle and see that the things inside are shining.

Seeing this, Luo Mian wanted to open the bottle and take a look, but Jun Qingyu slapped his outstretched claw back.

Just when he was about to curse like he did before, he met Jun Qingyu's gaze and became scared, remembering that this was Xing Zhicheng.

Jun Qingyu threw a bag of money on the table and left with Jiang Youning and Luo Mian.

Not long after leaving the shop, I heard hurried footsteps behind me, followed by a noisy sound.

Turning around, they saw a group of people wearing silver cloaks, masks and holding weapons rushing into the small shop they had just visited.

The sudden change made the three of them stop, and people passing by also stopped to watch.

The three of them were perfectly hidden in the crowd.

Not long after, the old man who had been seen in the store before was thrown out and fell heavily to the ground. If it were in other places, the owner would have cried and screamed if he was kicked out of his store so rudely, and the other party's purpose was obviously to occupy the store or find trouble.

However, this little old man was very calm. Even after being thrown out and falling heavily to the ground, there was no sign of anger on his face.

Under the gaze of everyone, he got up from the ground, brushed off the dirt on his body, and left as if nothing had happened.

Jiang Youning and Luo Mian were stunned by this strange scene.

No, aren’t you angry even if it’s like this?
As two people with bad tempers and who will never let go of a grudge, Jiang Youning and Luo Mian were already very angry just by watching this. Yet, this little old man could just walk away as if nothing had happened!
left!

Not long after the old man was inside, the team that had gone in before also came out. Under the gaze of everyone, they left without looking back.

Jiang Youning took a look at the scene inside the store and found that all the shelves had been opened roughly and all the things inside were gone. Obviously, they were taken away by these people.

After returning to their residence, Jiang Youning and Luo Mian were finally able to speak loudly. They went for a walk outside and almost suffocated them to death.

I didn’t think anything of it normally, but the atmosphere in Star City is just too weird.

“Living in such a depressing environment, won’t these people in Star City go crazy?” Luo Mian complained.

"How do you know they are not crazy?" Jun Qingyu said.

Sometimes being crazy doesn't necessarily mean making a big noise.

"Before, Star City also tried to integrate into the upper three realms, but was rejected. After all, no one wants to take in a traitor, especially since Star City was one of the most prosperous cities in Yunzhou."

Yunzhou wants to become the center of the world, and the center of Yunzhou is the City of Stars.

Just imagine, who would dare to accept such a star city, even if they pretend to accept it.

After all, the sense of oppression that Yunzhou brought to people at that time was too strong.

If we really accept Star City, the first question is how to arrange it.

It’s not good to treat them too well. Why should you raise other people’s children when your own children can’t even get enough to eat? It’s not good to treat them too badly. What if they backstab you?

So, no one accepted it, and Xing Zhicheng was left alone in an awkward manner.

"After being rejected, Star City disappeared for a long time. When it reappeared, it became what it is now."

After listening to Jun Qingyu's explanation, Jiang Youning couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Her brother once told her that if a person suddenly undergoes a huge change within a period of time, it is either because the person has experienced a huge change, or because the person has been pretending before.

This sentence can also be applied to a city.

However, Jiang Youning didn't know the reason why Star City became what it is now.

Jun Qingyu took out the black bottle containing the star stone, but did not open it immediately. Instead, he said to Jiang Youning, "Little Lemon, set up a gravity formation around it. It doesn't need to be too big, just as big as a table."

Hearing this, Jiang Youning casually set up a gravity formation on the table.

After the formation was completed, Jun Qingyu opened the bottle. A stone with a silver glow slowly floated out from the mouth of the bottle.

Seeing that the stones were getting fatter and taller, Jiang Youning decisively activated the gravity formation.

The star stone's original upward movement paused, and it began to slowly descend under the influence of the gravity array, and finally stopped five centimeters away from the bottle mouth.
