The Journey of Freedom After the Awakening of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit

Getting too close to Moria before gaining sufficient power is not a good thing.

Here.

Moria and Jingni walked in front, with the shadow servant on black horse following behind them.

Neither of them knew where they were going, so they just kept going straight.

Soon they arrived at the entrance of Zilanxuan, which was located beside the main road.

Without going inside, Moria glanced inside.

It was very lively. Even in broad daylight, there were still many people coming in and out of Zilan Pavilion, and the girls inside were very enthusiastic.

Outside the main gate, one could hear people calling him "Young Master" over and over again, their voices filled with fervor.

"My husband wants to go inside and take a look!"

Noticing Moria's gaze, Jingni asked calmly.

"Let's buy a luxury house first and stay here tonight!"

Moria shrugged, quickly exchanged a glance with a white-haired man above, and then walked with Jingni through the Purple Orchid Pavilion into the distance.

After Moriah and Jingni passed by, Wei Zhuang, who was standing upright by the open window of a room on the fourth floor of Zilan Pavilion, had a slight cold smile on his lips.

interesting!

An "ordinary" person with no internal energy could sense his gaze.

There was also a woman whose sword aura was restrained, yet she still gave him the feeling of a sharp edge on his spine.

In the end, they were the ones who went into the city with Han Fei.

"An interesting combination, interesting people." Wei Zhuang murmured as he watched Moria and Jing Ni's retreating figures on the street.

"Who's interesting?"

Wearing a specially made purple dress, Zi Nu opened the door, walked with her long legs in black stockings, and smiled as she walked to Wei Zhuang's side. Following Wei Zhuang's gaze, she could no longer see Moria and Jing Ni.

Wei Zhuang didn't reply, but simply withdrew his gaze and looked down at the street below.

Han Fei and his younger sister Honglian walked along, laughing and joking, looking somewhat unreliable.

"Do you think he could be that person?" Zi Nu asked.

"I don't think it's useful; we'll have to see what he does," Wei Zhuang said, withdrawing his gaze before leaving.

Watching Wei Zhuang's departing figure, Zi Nu smiled, then turned her gaze to the direction Wei Zhuang had followed earlier, to the person Wei Zhuang had described as interesting. She was also very curious about him.

At this moment, Zi Nu, who was curious about this, has encountered a problem.

Like Zilanxuan, these lakeside apartments are only available to people with certain social standing; money alone is not enough.

Initially, it was necessary to find a respected person to act as a guarantor in order to buy a house.

This is what the brokers told Moriah.

The lakeside residence he had his eye on, located only twenty meters from Zilan Pavilion, along with all the other houses in the vicinity, had been snapped up by the powerful figure behind Zilan Pavilion.

Moria could only buy the house by finding a respected person to act as a guarantor for the people behind Zilanxuan.

The person behind Zilan Pavilion, isn't that Wei Zhuang? Moria thought to himself.

So it turns out Wei Zhuang is actually a mafia boss.

In this area, house transactions not only require paying him protection money, but also getting his consent.

"What should we do?" Jingni asked worriedly as they left the dental clinic.

Wei Zhuang could sense that she was extraordinary, and she could naturally sense that Wei Zhuang was extraordinary as well.

So when she heard that she would need to deal with Zilanxuan, she knew it was not an easy place to associate with.

"How about we move to a different house? It doesn't have to be that big," Jingni suggested, looking at Xiaoyan in her arms. She still didn't want to cause any trouble.

"Go directly to Zilan Pavilion; they should be quite easy to talk to."

Moria smiled and walked towards Zilan Pavilion. He was confident that he could easily deal with Wei Zhuang now.

Jingni had no choice but to silently follow behind Moria.

Her husband is good in every way, but once he decides to do something, no one can stop him.

As I walked along, I saw the bustling houses around Zilanxuan.

Thinking about the people living inside, each one of them must be either rich or noble.

Moria smiled to himself, thinking: No wonder they say Zilan Pavilion has powerful connections; it turns out there are some unseen dark deals going on behind the scenes!

Reality is not as simple as it is portrayed in anime.

Wei Zhuang's military strength, along with the powerful figures he maintained through Zi Lan Xuan, were the cornerstones upon which Zi Lan Xuan was able to rise and establish itself in this city.

After all, the greatest power in this city is the night.

A night sky that can block out the sunlight of a country naturally wields immense power and influence.

The fact that Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu were able to establish themselves safely in such a place speaks volumes about their abilities.

Chapter 219 Brilliant! (Two chapters combined)

At the entrance of Zilan Pavilion.

Moriah led the way, with Jingni carrying Xiaoyan'er half a step behind.

The two entered the Purple Orchid Pavilion.

"male"

"male"

The two girls at the door opened their mouths to say, "Welcome, young master, please come in," but their words were stuck in mid-air, unable to land.

The two girls stared blankly as Moria approached.

Her once eloquent and persuasive mouth is now completely silent.

Besides being stunned by Moria's flawless appearance, the combination of Jingni and Xiaoyan'er left them speechless.

It's awkward to say whether to welcome them or not; we're stuck in a rut.

Moriah, however, remained unaffected. With his hands behind his back, head held high, he strode forward, passed through the gate, and entered the Purple Orchid Pavilion.

The atmosphere was as if they were not visiting a brothel, but rather returning to their own home.

"This"

"Such a master exists in this world!!"

"He is truly a role model for us all!!"

In the main hall of Zilan Pavilion, the friends looked at Jingni who came in with Moria and all cast admiring glances at Moria.

Many people visit brothels in broad daylight; they are a common sight.

It's not uncommon for men to bring women shopping, though it's rare.

This was the first time I'd ever seen a wealthy family member bring their wife and children to a brothel.

For a moment, everyone was watching Moria, wondering how he would proceed with his business, perhaps they could learn something from him.

Once inside the hall, the girls from Zilanxuan were similar to the two girls at the entrance.

They all stared in astonishment at the strange combination of Moria and Jingni.

For a moment, everyone forgot how to start a conversation, and no one came forward to greet them.

In the end, Moriah himself went up to a girl wearing a light green dress and asked her for a quiet room. Only then did the girl realize that she had neglected her guest.

He quickly addressed Moria as "Young Master, please" and led him upstairs.

The girl in green didn't dare to look at Jing Ni even once. Her face was flushed, and she had a strange feeling of being caught by the wife of a respectable man.

The girl in green led Moria and the others to the far left room on the third floor.

Inside, near the window against the wall, there is a smooth wooden couch that protrudes about an inch, roughly two square meters in size. On it is a long table with four cushions, spread out on either side.

"Young master, please have a seat, my wife!" The young lady was a little embarrassed and dared not look at Jing Ni.

Moriah and Jingni sat down on the side closest to the wall. Jingni knelt upright, holding Xiaoyan'er without bending over.

Moriah, on the other hand, sat cross-legged, very casually.

After Moriah and Jingni sat down, the girl in green picked up a teapot from a small wooden table and walked over, intending to kneel down and pour tea for the two of them.

Moria raised his hand to stop the girl and said with a smile, "Could you please go and find your boss first? I have a big business deal that needs her approval."

Perhaps it was because Moria had been so direct and straightforward, without beating around the bush, that the girl in green was taken aback for a moment. After giving Moria and Jingni a serious look, she smiled and said, "Then please wait a moment, young master."

After speaking, the girl in green turned around, put down the teapot, left the room, and quickly went up to the fourth floor, heading towards the room where the girl in purple usually stayed.

"A big deal? You want my approval?"

Inside the room, after hearing the message from the girl in green, Zi Nu was completely confused, not understanding what important business connection the newcomer had with her.

Wei Zhuang, who was standing by the window, frowned slightly when he heard that the people who wanted to see Zi Nu were a strange couple.

"Who are those two people?" Zi Nu asked.

“You look unfamiliar; you must have just arrived in Xinzheng recently,” the girl in green replied without hesitation.

In Xinzheng, women know almost everyone, especially men, who have some money or power; they at least have a general impression of them.

A man I don't recognize, and who's so good-looking, must have just arrived in Xinzheng recently.

"Interesting. A stranger has come here with his wife and children, wanting to see me and agree to a big deal."

Zi Nu frowned and pondered for a moment, then smiled and asked the girl in green to lead the way to see Moria.

If you don't know anything about it, then you should go and meet them in person.

"I'll go with you!"

Wei Zhuang, who had been standing by the window, went to the sword rack, took the Shark Tooth Sword from it and sheathed it. He then came to Zi Nu's side and said solemnly.

Zi Nu's gaze sharpened slightly as she looked at Wei Zhuang and asked softly, "Very strong?"

Wei Zhuang glanced at Zi Nu and remained silent.
