Tian Heng Island
Tian Heng Island, the Four Directions Reception Platform.
As a near-ground high-altitude hub, this place has always been a hub for locals to leave, but today, other people are coming to "visit".
The Four Directions Reception Platform trembled.
Beams of light appeared at the reception center.
There weren't many people here, only about ten.
The Shui Wuyue sisters brought Shui Yue'er and Shui Bing'er with them.
Dugu Bo was accompanied by his granddaughter Dugu Yan, along with an elegant and beautiful woman, and behind the woman was Ye Lingling.
The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress also temporarily emerged from seclusion.
Ten people—this was the first group to arrive in Wei Lin's kingdom.
Apart from Snow Empress and Ice Empress, who were sent by some philanthropist, the others had to work for a long time to save up for the teleportation array fee.
"Is this the Tian Heng Tower?"
Compared to the others, Snow Empress and Ice Empress didn't seem nervous at all. What a joke! They even know your "boss," how could they be "nervous"?
"Bing'er, please stop shaking."
Snow Empress patted Ice Empress twice; the guy had been trembling ever since he was teleported here.
"No... I'm just a little dizzy from teleportation."
Snow Empress sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation. She understood that she had never seen anything like this before.
She turned her gaze to everything around her.
At the Four Directions Reception Platform, people came and went, each stepping on Flying Soul Tool, their flight paths following fixed routes.
Dozens of meters above the ground, there are small, suspended traffic lights, and tiny drones act as traffic police, maintaining Order in the air.
Online, it depicts the tracks of a maglev train, with eight circular carriages transporting various unknown substances to all parts of the world.
There are also large robotic arms, whose efficiency is frighteningly high; a train can be completed in just over ten minutes.
"Mother, is this... Tianshu?"
The Shui Bing'er sisters huddled behind Shui Yun'er; this place was completely different from the world they knew.
It's like a child from the mountains suddenly arriving in the world of Cybertron; the feeling of having their understanding completely shattered can easily cause them to panic.
"Don't be afraid, this place... is just a bit more advanced."
Shui Yun'er silently shielded her older sister in front of her.
My children, don't panic. Your mom is even more panicked than you are.
Shui Wuyue's lips twitched slightly. Goodness, they've already pushed me to the very front. You guys are truly my good family.
"Wait a minute? You are... Senior Dugu?"
Shui Wuyue stared for a while before realizing that the handsome, black-haired man in front of him was actually that Old Poison? Had he changed so much? This wasn't even the same person anymore.
Dugu Bo recognized Shui Wuyue and the others at this moment.
"You are... Lord Shui Wuyue? What brings you here?"
"I've been working hard for a while, and I'm just here to grab a bite to eat during this celebration."
Shui Wuyue said this without the slightest hesitation.
Anyone can see how awesome this place is.
There's nothing shameful about clinging to someone's coattails.
Good heavens, you woman are no good! The Shui Family has been socializing with Tianshu for a long time?
That was well hidden.
Dugu Bo made a couple of sarcastic remarks.
This teleportation array isn't cheap; it costs a full two hundred Credits for a single teleportation.
Four of them came at once, that's eight hundred.
This is 800 Credits, not 800 Gold Soul Coin.
I was able to come here because I sold my medicinal herb garden.
(Wei Xi: You old fool, you just want to suffer without effort. Why didn't you just sign my name? You would have used it for free.)
Dugu Bo's thoughts were exactly the same as Shui Wuyue's. The entire city had been carrying bricks for a month, and they had finally managed to accumulate 800 Credits. And you, this Old Poison, just sent four people at once. So you're the most cunning one among the Titled Douluo.
In some ways, their thought processes are actually quite similar.
"Hello, I'm a staff member at the Four Directions Reception Platform. You can call me No. T4399. Please follow me."
At that moment, a small spherical machine flew in front of them.
"This is... a mechanism?"
Although they had many questions in their minds, they didn't want to appear ignorant. Look at that aloof young woman over there; she was clearly a worldly person, carrying a child with ease.
Left with no other choice, Snow Empress carried Ice Empress away. Bing Di was still unconscious from the teleportation array and it was unclear whether she was truly unconscious or just pretending.
Fortunately, Ice Empress is relatively small, so it's not difficult to lift.
It's only because Ice Empress didn't know what Shui Wuyue was thinking, otherwise they would have started hissing like cats.
The little robot took them on an air bus to the Cloud Roost Residential District.
After finding them a hotel, we also issued them temporary residence permits.
"Fellow travelers, since we do not yet have a registered residence in Tianshu, we need to carry this temporary ultimatum with us to avoid any unnecessary trouble."
The small machine handed several blue-green tokens to Shui Wuyue and the others.
"If you have a mobile phone, you can download the Tianshu App and check your temporary residence permit there. That way, you won't need to carry it with you."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
Although the other party was just a robot, Shui Wuyue still replied politely.
"Serving the people. If you need help, you can click the button on the ultimatum, and someone will come to assist you. I have work to do here, so I'll take my leave now."
After the little machine left, they started looking for their own rooms.
Although the hotel was just a three-story building, it was enough for each of them to have a room.
On the second floor, Ye Susu brought her daughter into the living room.
After making up his granddaughter's bed, Dugu Bo found a seat and sat down.
"Dugu Majesty, is there really a place here that can save us?"
Ye Susu stroked Ye Lingling's little head. When she arrived here, she already had the result, but at the same time, she began to doubt whether she had the ability to bring this method back.
Touching the Storage Soul Tool at her waist, she realized for the first time how poor she was.
"There's definitely a way, it's just a matter of whether you have enough Credits. Hey girl, I have some money here, if you need it..."
Ye Susu shook her head.
"Your Majesty Dugu, the fact that you brought us here is already a favor because of our past friendship. I would feel unworthy to owe you any more favors."
Dugu Bo didn't continue speaking; he understood her meaning perfectly well.
This is also why he didn't want to use Wei Xi's connections casually.
That little girl is still young and doesn't understand social etiquette.
But he can't.
The other party's identity and status clearly demonstrate how important their personal connections are.
If misused, it can easily lead to problems.
Before he met Wei Xi, he often sought treatment from Ye Susu to treat the toxins. Although it couldn't cure the problem completely, it could extend his life by a few years.
This is a debt of gratitude, and Dugu Bo must repay it.
That's why he brought the other person with him.
"Grandpa, is there really no other way?"
Dugu Yan grabbed her grandfather's arm and shook it.
"Yes, it depends on whether your Aunt Ye is willing to use it."
Ye Susu didn't reply, but simply stroked Ye Lingling's head.
The favors owed to Tianshu are too heavy; they are old, and it would be a waste to use them on them.
It would be better to use this favor to secure a future for the children.
This is more important than anything else.
