"Okay, you can go ahead. I've already spoken to people, you can enter the Holy City anytime!" Ye Lang nodded, not because he was being thoughtful, but because—

"We'll go again tomorrow!" Ye Lanyu said.

"Ye Lanyu, you've been saying this for three days now. Are you sure you want to go tomorrow?" the Seventh Princess said from the side. Just as she said, Ye Lanyu had been talking about this for the past few days, but every time the next morning, she would change her mind and not want to go anymore, and would have to wait until the next day.

"What's it to you? If you're so capable, go ahead and do it. I'm not stopping you!" Ye Lanyu said disdainfully, completely ignoring the Seventh Princess's provocation and giving a small counterattack.

The Seventh Princess waved her fingers a few times and said playfully, "I never said I was leaving, it was all you who said it! Hehe, I'm not going to prepare, I'm going to wait for the competition to start and go with Ye Lang!!"

"..." Ye Lanyu remained silent. She hadn't expected the Seventh Princess to act this way, without even making any preparations. At this moment, she looked at Zhen Xiaoyan.

"Huh?" Zhen Xiaoyan was stunned when she saw Ye Lanyu looking at her, and then she realized what was going on. "Don't look at me, I don't need to. I'm in the alchemy group, and if we're going to prepare, we'll do it together with Ye Lang."

"..." Ye Lanyu and the Seventh Princess fell silent at the same time. They seemed not to have thought of this. The most comfortable one here was Zhen Xiaoyan, because she was competing with Ye Lang. She just needed to follow Ye Lang and didn't need to make any excuses!

"Little Seven, we should also join the alchemy group..." Ye Lanyu said with a hint of envy.

"Yes... wait, I've got it! There's a way we can be together..." The Seventh Princess suddenly thought of something, and her expression changed from envy, jealousy, and hatred to excitement.

"Huh?" Ye Lanyu was a little confused. She stared at the Seventh Princess in a daze for a while, wanting to find out what the method was.

"It's just..." the Seventh Princess whispered a few words in Ye Lanyu's ear.

Ye Lanyu's eyes began to light up, becoming bright and alert. Soon, she excitedly exclaimed, "Oh, how come I didn't think of that? I've decided on this!!"

"What are you talking about?" Ye Lang and Zhen Xiaoyan were both a little confused, looking at the two mysterious girls with puzzled expressions.

"I won't tell you! Little Seven, let's go, let's go now!!" Ye Lanyu said mysteriously, then pulled the Seventh Princess away, not even thinking of going tomorrow, as if she didn't want to stay for a moment longer.

It seems that their idea is something to look forward to, and it will surely give Ye Lang a pleasant surprise!

"Fatty, what are those two up to?" Ye Lang stared blankly at the doorway, where Ye Lanyu and the Seventh Princess were no longer visible. He asked Zhen Xiaoyan, hoping to get an answer.

Of course, the chances of getting an answer are very slim, almost impossible!

"I... I don't know, none of them said anything!" Zhen Xiaoyan shook her head, her blank expression leaving no room for doubt!

"Forget about them, we'll deal with whatever comes our way!" Ye Lang was prepared to face his fate calmly. Although he was a bit slow, he had gotten used to Ye Lanyu's decisions always being bad.

"Well, they won't hurt you anyway, they wouldn't dare... at most they'll give you a hard time!" Zhen Xiaoyan nodded and said.

Upon hearing Zhen Xiaoyan's words, Ye Lang shook his head and sighed, "It's alright with Little Seven, but my sister... sometimes she doesn't know her limits! Oh well, let's prepare for the worst!"

"Yes!" Zhen Xiaoyan nodded and said.

Thus, Ye Lang and Zhen Xiaoyan remained in the Miracle District, while Ye Lanyu entered the inner city first and made a small change at the registration point, which was beneficial to them but a headache for Ye Lang.

Half a month later, the inner city of the Holy City was officially opened to the public. However, there were some restrictions, but these restrictions were relatively low and would not be a problem for ordinary people.

The Holy City restricts only treacherous and wicked individuals, those with a criminal record. Anyone with a criminal record will be barred from entering the Holy City unless they have special proof.

Therefore, ordinary people can enter the Holy City as long as they have not committed any evil deeds, and there are even people in the Holy City specifically to receive temporary visitors.

As far as the Holy City is concerned, since you've been invited here, you're a guest, and they won't neglect any guest. As for how much it costs, the Holy City won't consider it!

It's not just because they are wealthy, but also because their assets and resources come from believers all over the mainland. They are only taking out a small portion of their contributions!

If they're not even willing to offer this much, then the Holy City wouldn't exist, and the Holy Church wouldn't have so many followers!

Of course, this is good news for those who come to the Holy City, saving them a lot of trouble. The only inconvenience is that everyone is assigned to the same place without any choice.

Of course, this so-called inconvenience mainly applies to the nobles and wealthy who are used to living in comfortable places, but they didn't say anything. After all, this is the Holy City, not a place for them to show off!

The boundary between the inner and outer city of the Holy City is actually the foot of the Holy Mountain. From the moment you enter the mountain, you are in the inner city area of Holy City. Simply put, the Holy Mountain is the inner city of the Holy City.

The true inner city of the Holy City is located halfway up the mountain, extending all the way to the Holy City. The higher up you go, the more advanced the inhabitants are, and the more important the area becomes.

The inner city of the Holy City also has four gates in the east, south, west, and north directions, corresponding to the roads coming from those four directions. Normally, the guards at these four gates are already very strong, but now there are even stronger and more guards.

Everyone entering the city needs identification from their respective countries, and only this one document is required, which is very convenient!

Ye Lang is currently outside the South Gate, queuing with a group of people to enter the city. He did not use any special privileges to enter; as long as he gave his name, someone would immediately let him through.

Ye Lang's response was, "I'm a Prodigal Son, not a good-for-nothing. I wouldn't do such a thing!"

In fact, Zhen Xiaoyan had another explanation: he simply didn't know he had this right. Otherwise, he would have run away long ago and wouldn't have had the leisure to wait in line.
