These past few mornings, every time Shen Hao went out, he felt there were way more people on the streets, especially towards the direction of the city's teleportation array—it was several times busier than usual, making the already narrow road feel crowded.
Most of these newcomers didn't look like ordinary folk; either their clothes were luxurious, or they had an imposing aura that was clearly not normal.
"It's getting lively." Shen Hao sat in the carriage, watching the crowd outside dodging each other, and commented with a bright smile.
"Yeah, it's always like this—whenever folks come from Pingjiang City to our Li City, the place gets packed to the brim." The guard driving the carriage laughed and chimed in with Shen Hao.
"Last time, did you stay behind or go to Pingjiang City?"
"I went to Pingjiang City last time. It was busy as hell. The only ones who stayed back were Hundred Households' Personal Soldiers, everyone else made the trip."
