"Why is it so crowded?" Wei Lan was very confused by the surrounding crowd.
"Let's check what's going on," Lin Xian suggested and directly walked toward the crowd to ask something, and Wei Lan followed closely behind.
In front of Wu-Lang City gate.
Lin Xian and Wei Lan slowly walked toward the queue. The two of them wouldn't be making trouble this time because of a queue problem.
"Excuse me," Lin Xian walked to one of the crowd to ask.
"Yes, What's up?" Asked one of them, the driver of the crowd that brought such a luxurious car. But with such a strange design, very different from the car design in their world.
"Why are so many people heading to town? Is there a special event?" Lin Xian asked.
The driver looked at Lin Xian, who looked new to the scene, because it felt natural that Lin Xian would not know what was happening.
"The Wu-Lang City is currently holding an event once every five years to worship the Goddess. Once every five years, this event will be held in four different places."
"And Wu-Lang City is one of those places. Every time an event is held, all the clans will come to celebrate by holding competitions and so on," said the bodyguard.
"Goddess worship event?" Lin Xian thought. Wei Lan was also confused because they were worshiping a Goddess.
Looking at Lin Xian and Wei Lan, the driver assumed that they were from remote areas and had just stepped into the big city. "Goddess Wu is the Goddess who makes this world better because, in ancient times, this world was very barren. And not as sophisticated as this."
"To respect everything that the Goddess did, each clan agreed to hold an event commemorating what had been done by her," continued the driver.

Before the driver could reply to Lin Xian's words, someone's voice sounded.
"Quick Move, We want to pass!"
Everyone on set looked toward the source of the sound. The voice came from one of the maids guiding the crowd. The car looked even more luxurious than the others.
"Is he a car parker?" Wei Lan thought when she saw the maid's appearance trying to get another car to pull over.
The queue became so messy that even the city gatekeepers put on an ugly faces.
Lin Xian and Wei Lan didn't step aside from their position. The two of them were just walking as the crowd of luxury cars, and pedestrians suddenly shifted left and right.
"Get out of the way, you bastard!" The servant shouted again because Lin Xian and Wei Lan had not stepped aside for a long time.
Hearing the screams from the two of them, Lin Xian and Wei Lan looked toward the back.
"What is it?" Lin Xian asked while looking at the middle-aged male servant who had luxurious clothes but would still look like a servant.
"Are you deaf? Get out of our way!" shouted the servant once again.
Lin Xian wanted to slash the servant at once but stopped when he heard the sound of one of the luxury cars behind him.
"Why stop?" A man's voice sounded, and he slowly exited the most luxurious car.
"Apologize, Young Master; the two did not step aside even though my entourage had warned." Answered the servant with a smile and a very polite tone. It was obvious that the servant was a sycophant.
"Hmmm!" The young man glanced at Lin Xian after hearing his words of service. He made an unhappy face but stopped when he saw Wei Lan.
The young man was amazed by Wei Lan's beauty which made him forget about Lin Xian.
"May I know who you are, miss? Would you be interested in coming with us?" The young man immediately asked after getting closer to Lin Xian and Wei Lan.
"I'm not interested," Wei Lan replied flatly.
The young man, as well as the maid, were surprised that Wei Lan refused the offer.
"Do you know Whose offer you have rejected, miss?" The servant raised his tone slightly because Wei Lan ignored him. He still endured it because his young master was interested in the woman.
"Who?" Wei Lan asked indifferently.
The two of them were even more astonished because Wei Lan didn't recognize them, even though it was clear that their clan crests were on their car plates and the young man's clothes.
"Young master is—" the young man stopped the servant's words. He only suspected Wei Lan was just from among the commoners in a remote place.
"Introducing, I am Tan Jiang, the young master of the Tan Clan," Tan Jiang introduced himself in a manner that looked very dignified.
Hearing the young man introduce himself, Lin Xian was immediately surprised because the name of the young man was the same as the name of his bodyguard in his previous life.
"I don't know you or your clan; let's go, Lin Xian." Wei Lan said, then turned towards the gate.
On the other hand, Lin Xian felt very sorry for the young master for being so bluntly rejected by Wei Lan. He just turned around to follow Wei Lan.
"Maybe it's just a coincidence that the names are the same!" Lin Xian thought.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTan Jiang was astonished to see him being so rejected in public. His face darkened instantly. Having lost face in public, he got back into the car.
"Servant," Tan Jiang called.
"Yes, young master," the servant hurriedly approached the car.
"Catch that woman and bring her to me. Do it cleanly," Tan Jiang ordered.
"Yes, Young Master," the servant grinned evilly and immediately arranged to send some people to catch Wei Lan.
Tan Jiang still had an ugly face in the car.
"What's wrong, Jiang'er?" Asked a middle-aged man who had just been watching.
"It's okay, father," Tan Jiang replied.
"Tch, are you still short of women? You have over 20 wives at 17," the middle-aged man was slightly irritated by his son's infatuation with women.
Tan Jiang's face became ugly when he heard his father's words.
Seeing Tan Jiang put on an ugly face, the middle-aged man sighed no. "Send one of them to bring her back. But this is the last time," said the middle-aged man.
Tan Jiang's face brightened instantly because it was certain that his father would fulfill his wish. That's because his talent is very high and different from his other siblings.
"Okay, Father, this is the last one," Tan Jiang said with an evil smile.
"Damn, woman! You will regret having rejected me in public. You will become a slave to satisfy me before long," thought Tan Jiang.
Lin Xian and Wei Lan didn't know about it at all. However, the two of them would not be afraid even if someone were to hunt them down.
