When Xiang Nan returned to the inn empty-handed with guilt in his heart, he found that Miss Ruyan had already left.
There was only one letter on the table.
Xiang Nan didn't turn on the light, he moved a chair and sat in front of the window, quietly reading the words on the letter under the moonlight.
"I'm sorry Mr. Xiang, I left suddenly without saying hello to you."
"I know you really want to help me, just like when we first met, you helped my sister and me regardless of your life."
"But some things are related to personal honor and disgrace, and you have to solve them yourself. I believe you must understand this feeling very well."
"Just like the first time you and I parted, I still wish you a prosperous future and great success."
"It's a pity that I didn't get to eat the lotus leaf roast chicken you bought back with your own hands. I'm fine, so don't worry about it."
"The mountain is high and the road is far away. There will be a time later, your Miss Ruyan."
Xiang Nan closed the envelope, and there was still girl Ruyan's body fragrance on the letter paper.
Sitting in front of the window, he was silent for a long time, feeling an unspeakable sadness in his heart.
When she was at her worst, when her family was at the end of its rope, it was she who stood up to turn the tide and brought back the Xiang family who were on the verge of extinction.
Now, she is also facing her family problems, but she has no way to help her.
"To this day, she is still thinking about me."
Xiang Nan sighed, he knew that she didn't want him to get involved, she didn't want him to be implicated.
The Whampoa family is a huge force that can cover the sky with one hand, she doesn't want to get involved in this muddy water and become unable to extricate herself.
Xiang Nan didn't do anything that night, but kept recalling every detail of getting along with Miss Ruyan in front of the window.
This meeting was very unexpected, neither Xiang Nan nor Miss Ru Yan thought of it, but the parting was also very hasty.
Xiang Nan realized that the problem of the Huangpu family might really be a bit serious this time, otherwise Miss Ruyan's behavior would not be so abnormal.
He took out a letter and said to the letter: "Feng Xuan, help me investigate the current situation of the Huangpu family. Remember, do what you can, and you must ensure that you can stay out of the matter."
After all, he will send a letter to let it fly.
In the far northern region, I don't know when the signaling order will be able to fly to the southern region. I'm afraid it will take two months to say the least.
Early the next morning, the entire Amethyst City became lively.
Today is the opening ceremony of the competition, and all the famous people in the city have gone to the arena.
The arena, which can accommodate 100,000 spectators, suddenly became a bit insufficient on this day.
The entire Pine Tree Avenue is overcrowded, from the streets to the alleys, all people hold money and tickets in their hands, holding them high.
There were too many people, and many people who had clearly bought tickets were stuck at the end of the street because they couldn't squeeze in, sweating profusely and shouting and cursing endlessly.
Xiang Nan was standing at the end of the street. Seeing this situation, he realized that he might not be able to get in either.
But I had to find old man Tianji quickly, and I couldn't tolerate a day's delay.
Looking in the blink of an eye, some gorgeous carriages passed towards a small alley next to Pine Tree Avenue.
"Those people should also be attending the opening ceremony, right?" Xiang Nan pondered for a moment, and followed a large number of gorgeous carriages into the alley.
Only then did I realize that this alley is a "VIP passage" strictly guarded by the military guards in the city, and only those with aloof status can directly enter the arena from here.
The distinguished guests jumped out of the carriage, showed their invitation letters, and then walked down a sloping staircase into the underground passage.
Even so, in this small alley, there are too many rich people, so they have to queue up.
When he got to Xiang Nan, he was in a bit of trouble.
Two guards stopped Xiang Nan and said politely, "Please show your invitation letter."
Xiang Nan hesitated for a moment, and suddenly his heart moved, and he asked, "Excuse me, is this arena competition officially hosted, or privately undertaken?"
When the two guards heard Xiang Nan's question, they knew that he was not a distinguished guest, and one of them said very rudely: "There is no invitation letter, please leave here."
The other guard had a good temper, and said to Xiang Nan, "The arena competition is jointly organized by several big families, and we just received orders from the city lord to help maintain order."
"Oh?" Xiang Nan came to his senses, he took out a small card and handed it to the two guards.
One of them took it over and saw that the card was black with eighteen pentagram patterns on it, and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Xiang Nandao: "Show this to the manager of the organizer, he will understand."
The guard took the card suspiciously and left.
"Hurry up! Get out if you can't get in!"
"Who is blocking the front, don't waste my time, I still want to go in to attend the opening ceremony!"
The people behind have already started cursing.
Xiang Nan ignored them and just waited quietly.
Not long after, a middle-aged man ran over in a hurry. When he ran to Xiang Nan, he was still panting. It seemed that he had run a long way.
"Excuse me." The middle-aged man squeezed Xiang Nan's Martial God card and asked while wiping his sweat, "Is this card yours?"
Xiang Nan nodded.
The man asked again: "Is it yours or your friend's? I have to confirm this."
Xiang Nan thought for a while and said, "A friend gave it to me."
The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "So, I thought Master Reggae came in person, and it doesn't look like your age."
"Since you have a special status, please come with me, and I will take you in personally."
After all, the middle-aged man led the way respectfully, while Xiang Nan followed behind, but he was very surprised.
I didn't expect the name of Reggae master to spread so far! It has been spread from the Eastern Territory to the Northern Territory. From the looks of it, this Valkyrie card is really awesome, and that dead pupil is not lying.
"Why can he be brought in by the person in charge?"
"That's right, who is he! I'm a super big shot, if you don't believe me, go and ask."
Seeing Xiang Nan's special treatment, those distinguished guests couldn't bear it for a while, and always felt that their identities were being discriminated against.
As a result, no one paid attention to their complaints, and the guards still strictly controlled the order of the scene.
Xiang Nan followed the person in charge into the arena. At this time, only one-third of the audience in the arena entered.
The person in charge respectfully returned the card to Xiang Nan, and said, "Since all the VIP rooms in the arena were reserved two years ago, there is really no room for you."
"Please feel wronged and just watch the opening ceremony in the auditorium? Excuse me, are you satisfied with this arrangement? If not, please give me two hours, and I will definitely find a way to free up a private room for you."
Xiang Nan really didn't expect that this Valkyrie card would bring him such respectful treatment, so he said, "No, I'm fine here."
"That's good." The person in charge breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It is my honor to serve you. In ten minutes, I will send someone to bring you the check-in key of the highest-standard inn in Amethyst City, as well as 100% Eighty's restricted area pass."
"If you need it, we can also arrange for you to have dinner with the city lord tonight."
"Here is a storage card of one million gold coins. Please keep it safe. This is your Valkyrie overdraft limit for this week. If necessary, please summon me anytime."
After finishing speaking, the person in charge bowed to Xiang Nan, stepped back and left.
Xiang Nan was dumbfounded, holding the coin storage card in his hand, he couldn't react for a while.
"This... This card is so powerful?"
