The white light gradually disappeared from Yun Lintian's vision, and he found himself standing inside a spacious hall similar to the previous transporting hall where he departed from.
Yun Lintian stepped out of the formation with Ning Yue and looked around the place briefly. Compared to the previous hall, this place was several times larger and more crowded.
At this moment, Tian Hualing appeared in the formation behind him and walked out. "This is the Great Xia Dynasty Capital City. We have to go to the sect by ourselves from here."
As she saw Yun Lintian's puzzled expression, she added. "It's for the security aspect that we don't have a teleporting formation directly to the sect."
Yun Lintian nodded in an understanding manner. "That's good as well. We can take this chance to look at one of the largest cities here."
The moment they stepped out of the hall, Yun Lintian immediately saw a group of people chase after a young girl, rushing toward him. The young girl shouldn't be more than ten years old. Her short legs moved fast, but it was not enough to make her escape from the pursuit.
"Where are you going, you little bastard!?" A fierce man in the group shouted angrily as he drew closer to the little girl.
The little girl panicked, desperately looking left and right to find a way out. Suddenly, her gaze landed on Yun Lintian, and her eyes lit up. Without hesitation, she exerted her strength onto her legs and jumped toward Yun Lintian while shouting. "Big brother!"
Yun Lintian was taken aback but didn't avoid her. He channeled his divine energy to make her land in front of him.
Seeing this, the little girl quickly held onto Yun Lintian's legs and cried. "Please help me, big brother! They are so fierce!"
The group of fierce men halted their tracks and looked at Yun Lintian coldly. Judging from Yun Lintian's appearance, his background shouldn't be ordinary.
"Are you her friend?" Asked the fierce man, who seemed to be the group's leader.
Yun Lintian was rendered speechless. What kind of luck was this? He had just arrived yet encountered trouble directly.
He spread his arms and said. "As you see, I've just arrived here."
The fierce man was relieved. He glared at the little girl and said. "You better obediently come here."
The little girl looked at Yun Lintian pleadingly with tearful eyes. "Please help me. They are going to kill me."
"Nonsense!" The fierce man furiously retorted. "You ate my food and ran away. Don't you think you should pay for it?"
"But…But I don't have money." The little girl said pitifully.
Yun Lintian glanced at her and shook his head slightly. He turned to the fierce man and asked. "This brother, how much is it? I will pay it for her."
"Are you sure? Do you know how much food she ate?" The fierce man frowned.
"It doesn't matter. Just tell me the number." Yun Lintian said casually.
"Fine. It's 12,300 low-graded Divine Stones. Just give me 12,000." The fierce man said.
ƥαṇdαsηθνε|·ƈθm Yun Lintian was stunned and asked. "How much did she eat?"
"It's around 300 dishes." The fierce man said.
Yun Lintian subconsciously glanced at the little girl, who lowered her head embarrassingly. "Are you a reincarnation of a hungry ghost?"
The little girl didn't answer. She was too embarrassed to speak.
Yun Lintian took a bunch of low-graded Divine Stones out and threw them to the fierce man. "Here you go."
The fierce man stored them away and said. "Little brother, you should stay away from that girl. Otherwise, she will eat you until you go bankrupt."
As he spoke, he turned around and brought his people away.
Yun Lintian took out a storage ring filled with a lot of food and handed it to the little girl. "There are food and some money inside. It should be enough for you to spend."
After stuffing the ring into the little girl's hand, Yun Lintian immediately walked away with Tian Hualing and Ning Yue.
"Wait! What's your name, big brother?" The little girl hurriedly stopped Yun Lintian.
"Lin Tian. Don't get into trouble again." Yun Lintian responded without turning back.
The little girl watched as Yun Lintian vanished into the crowd, and the grateful look on her face gradually disappeared.
She played with the storage ring and muttered to herself. "Lin Tian? Interesting…"
"You're surely kind." Tian Hualing said with a faint smile.
"Kind? Not really." Yun Lintian chuckled.
"Why?" Tian Hualing asked in doubt.
"What do you think about that little girl?" Yun Lintian didn't explain but asked a question instead.
Tian Hualing frowned slightly. "She's not ordinary?"
On the side, Ning Yue expressed her opinion. "I feel that she's very strong."
Yun Lintian nodded. "You're right. She's very, very strong. Much stronger than you, senior."
Tian Hualing looked at Yun Lintian in disbelief. She didn't see anything special about the little girl at all.
"She's a Divine Emperor or perhaps a God Emperor." Yun Lintian said calmly.
"W-What? For real?" Tian Hualing lost her composure in front of Yun Lintian for the first time.
She recovered quickly and asked. "What's her purpose, then?"
Yun Lintian shrugged. "No idea. But I can safely say that our encounter was a coincidence."
"Why are you so sure?" Tian Hualing asked in doubt.
"I can't say that I am the best at reading people, but I can see one or two things from her. Although she concealed her strength very well, the expression in her eyes couldn't be hidden completely. I could see that she picked me out of playfulness." Yun Lintian explained casually.
Tian Hualing frowned deeply. It wasn't that a Divine Emperor had never visited the Heavenhold Realm before, but this was the first time such a person had appeared here without her knowing.
"You don't have to worry about it. With her strength, she could definitely see through your disguise. If she had a malicious intent, you would have died by now." Yun Lintian said upon seeing Tian Hualing's expression.
Tian Hualing nodded in agreement. "You're right, but I have to report this. No matter what, the appearance of the Divine Emperor isn't common."
As she spoke, she took a long-range transmission jade out and began to contact Tian Yuhan.
Yun Lintian didn't stop her. While he was curious about the little girl's identity, it wasn't to the point he had to worry about it. Whatever her purpose of coming here had nothing to do with him.
