Identity Token
Chapter 1332 Identity Token
Xuan Chu heard all the whispers mixed in with the crowd, which immediately drew his attention.
As soon as he turned his head, he met the eyes of those who kept glancing at him, pretending to look at him unintentionally.
"He's looking over here. Whew, that's terrifying! If we get targeted by this kind of lunatic, we'll be in big trouble!"
"Let's not look at him, just wait not far away."
……
It's quite a strange feeling to hear other people discussing how to deal with you.
Xuan Chu was genuinely amused and exasperated.
If he weren't more interested in figuring out whether Yun Ran and the others were responsible, he'd really like to play around with them.
Without looking at the others, Xuan Chu turned and headed towards the city gate.
"Halt! Where's your identification token?"
When he was stopped, Xuan Chu wasn't angry; he just felt he had lost out big time.
Just a few days ago, he was a distinguished guest in Moonflower City. Not to mention the guards at the city gate, even the people who set up stalls in the nooks and crannies of the city recognized his face.
Although most of it was because of Erdan, the money-spending boy, it was still possible to gain favor through connections.
Now, he's a stranger again, and all the connections he built up before are now useless.
Thinking of this, Xuan Chu gritted his teeth.
It's a miracle that Yun Ran, with her ability to cause trouble, has survived and grown up!
"This is my first time in Moonflower City. I don't know what an identity token is?"
Upon hearing this, the guards at the city gate sized Xuan Chu up and down.
The clothes and accessories worn by the people around him were not bad, and they looked not much different from Xuan Chu's.
But anyone who looks closely can tell that the material of Xuan Chu's clothes is definitely not ordinary.
Especially the fabric, which is covered with subtle patterns created using special techniques, exudes understated luxury. This is something that money can't buy.
The guards standing here must have sharp eyesight.
Almost as soon as the guards saw the material of Xuan Chu's clothes, they were certain that Xuan Chu was from a prominent family.
What I just said was all for the purpose of concealing my identity; many scions of prominent families do this.
The guard felt he had seen through everything and, being very kind, decided not to expose him.
"An identity token is a certificate that allows you to freely enter and exit our Moonflower City. If you don't have one, you'll need to apply for one."
As he spoke, the guard took out a blank piece of iron from his body and handed it to Xuan Chu.
"Take this and go to the room in the back to register. Someone will take you there to complete the process."
Xuan Chu nodded, and as he took the iron plate, he casually pulled out a pearl that the dragon spirit had treated as scrap, as a thank-you gift.
The guard's initially perfunctory expression immediately became much more sincere.
These are natural wild pearls. Although they are not very big, they are really valuable!
After Xuan Chu left, the other guards who had witnessed this scene immediately showed expressions of envy.
"You're so lucky! That one pearl should last you half a year."
"These rich kids are really something. Our Moonflower City is perfectly safe. Why would they need to deliberately hide their identities?"
"That's right, they acted so low-key that we were too embarrassed to approach them."
……
Rebuilding new connections in Moonflower City would be somewhat tedious, but absolutely necessary. Xuan Chu calmed himself down and waited to process the new identity token.
Just as they were about to reach his position, the same group of people who had been watching him outside the city and thought his ever-changing expressions indicated he was ill came over with several men dressed as patrol officers.
"Brothers, it's him! We saw him standing there outside the city, his expression constantly changing. He's definitely not a good person!"
The leader only glanced at the clothes on Xuan Chu's body.
He glared fiercely at the man who brought them here, thinking he could actually catch someone and earn merit today.
Don't be fooled by their secure jobs; they still have KPIs. If they don't meet them, they won't be penalized, but they won't receive bonuses.
He immediately became somewhat angry and said, "You guys are blind! There's absolutely nothing wrong with this gentleman. I think the problem lies with you. Get out of here!"
The faces of the people who were yelled at turned pale instantly.
But they dared not talk back to the patrol officers, and when they heard "get out," they immediately scurried away.
The surrounding people looked on with curiosity, but the scene of the patrol was not so interesting.
The leader glanced at everyone, and they immediately went back to their own business, not daring to look at him again.
He stepped forward and stood beside Xuan Chu, his eyes still relatively restrained.
Clearly, they were worried that Xuan Chu might really be from a prominent family, and therefore they couldn't afford to offend him.
"Is this your first time visiting Moonflower City, sir?"
Xuan Chu: ...
He's already queuing up to get his identity token, does he really have nothing better to do?
"Yes, I heard this area is quite bustling, so I came to take a look."
"I see. Our Moonflower City is indeed the most prosperous city within hundreds of miles. Sir, please feel free to stroll around. If you need anything, you can find someone at the information post."
After saying that, the patrolman left with his men.
He had just tested it with the purification stone, and there was no evil energy on Xuan Chu's body, so there was no need to keep an eye on him too much.
Soon, Xuan Chu obtained his own identity token.
But when he held the identity token in his hand, he felt that the design of the token looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
Subconsciously, Xuan Chu felt that this feeling was related to Yun Ran.
"Mr. Xuan, please keep your identity token safe. If you lose it, please report it lost and apply for a replacement immediately. If you are found out without your identity token, you will be fined."
Thank you.
Before figuring out the current situation in Yuehua City, Xuan Chu didn't frantically investigate anything related to Yun Ran like a headless fly.
When he entered the main street, the scene before him made Xuan Chu momentarily dazed.
If he hadn't clearly known that he was in this world within the spatial rift...
At this moment, Xuan Chu probably really thought that this was a tourist town with some ancient elements in the real world.
He stepped into a bustling restaurant, intending to first find someone to gather some information.
A person like him, if he wanted to, could really dig up the secrets of someone's ancestors for eighteen generations.
In just one meal and a few drinks, Xuan Chu had figured out the history of the current Crescent Moon City.
The change of dynasties is relatively unpredictable, but the changes in the Xuanmen (Taoist sect) are quite noticeable.
The temple's lineage has not been interrupted; it still stands perfectly on the snow-capped peak, becoming a symbolic presence.
The powerful Murong family, however, disappeared long ago in the long river of history.
