Eastern Continent, Yinghai District.
Yinghai faced the Great Capital District across the river, separated by only a short distance. In recent years, with the end of South River's internal strife, Dadu's influence had begun to spread outward. The entire South River region was developing and flourishing, and Yinghai had benefited the most.
Thirty years ago, Yinghai District had still been quite barren, jokingly called the "tundra" of South River.
This major district lay in the southeastern part of Eastern Continent. Because the Inner Sea area connecting to the vast waters of the East Sea was known as "Yinghai," it had received its name. Yinghai's inland area was not large, but its total territory ranked first among the South River Four Districts.
This was because dozens of scattered outlying islands at the easternmost edge of Eastern Continent were all designated as part of Yinghai District.
Night fell, yet Yinghai District remained ablaze with lights.
The prosperity along River Beach had spread here as well, and Yinghai's riverbanks were lined with countless nightclubs and bars.
In a low-key yet extravagantly luxurious nightclub, lights flashed and music blared.
Song Ci, dressed in a floral shirt, sat at the bar. He had concealed every trace of his aura and looked no different from the other patrons. During this time, his sharp features and cold buzz cut had drawn plenty of attention.
Song Ci smiled at Chen Li beside him. "First time in a place like this? Why are you so stiff?"
"If I'd known it was this kind of place, I'd rather have waited outside for you."
Chen Li muttered under his breath. He was dressed quite conservatively in a black tracksuit and a baseball cap. Still, the youthful air he gave off attracted quite a few women looking to strike up a conversation.
