After Zhao Yanqin pulled Xu Liao out of the hotel, they walked into the nearby subway station. She brought Xu Liao along and made two turns in the subway station. The Bei Du subway, which was supposed to be packed with people, became very spacious. The two of them were practically waiting for the subway on an empty platform.
Xu Liao looked at the station sign curiously, and his expression turned strange. He had never heard of any station on this line.
Zhao Yanqin seemed to know what he was puzzled about. She burst out laughing and said, "Don't be puzzled! This is a subway built by us, the Ten Thousand Demons Guild. This kind of subway line for demons not only connects the major business districts and famous scenic spots in Bei Du, but also connects the eighteen demon residences in the city. There are also three long-distance lines that lead to other cities. It's much faster and more convenient than human subways and trains. "
Before Xu Liao could be surprised, the subway entered the station. Zhao Yanqin took out a card and swiped it twice at the door before pulling him into the carriage.
There was no one else in the carriage other than the two of them. It was very empty. Compared to the crowded scene in Bei Du's subway, this place could make most office workers tear up.
The seats in the carriage were not ordinary hard seats in the subway, but spacious and comfortable leather sofas. In front of every seat was a table that looked like it was made of metal. After Zhao Yanqin sat down, she placed the card in her hand on the table. The table was activated, and with a ripple, an operation screen appeared. It was actually a touchscreen.
When Zhao Yanqin put away the card, she waved it at Xu Liao and said, "This is my Demon Identity Card. Not only is it our identification, but it also has a bank card for special banks, a transportation card for special transportation, a membership card for nearly a thousand shopping malls and supermarkets in the country, and more than ten other functions, such as paying to use the smart system in the subway. These cards can only be activated with their own Demon Aura ripples, so they definitely won't be used by others. The security is better than any human technology. According to the different levels, there are black cards, diamond cards, platinum cards, gold cards, silver cards, normal cards, as well as underage cards. Mine is already a silver card, so you'll probably be judged as underage. I'll give you an underage card. "
Xu Liao's head was about to explode. He was extremely shocked as he thought to himself, "I thought that if there were demons in this world, they would live deep in the mountains, living in seclusion and living in seclusion, adhering to old traditions. I never expected the civilization of demon society to be in no way inferior to human society. Their standard of living and technology are even above that of humans. The various systems are even more advanced than humans. Human identification cards don't have any functions."
Zhao Yanqin operated on the desktop screen for a while and said, "I made an appointment with the Monster Affairs Department in the capital. When we arrive, we can go through the procedures immediately."
Xu Liao was completely speechless.
The two of them took the subway for more than ten minutes and arrived at the Monster Affairs Department in the capital station. When Xu Liao and Zhao Yanqin walked out of the carriage, they actually saw another passenger, which was rare.
This passenger came down from another carriage. He was slightly older than Xu Liao and Zhao Yanqin. He looked like a high school student, and his face was so handsome that it was flawless. He was dressed in a simple white shirt, long pants, and sneakers, and looked indescribably refreshing. Gao Wenhu was also considered a handsome guy, but compared to him, he was like a male version of an ugly duckling. He was completely unsightly. He was holding a bag in one hand and reading a book. When he saw Zhao Yanqin and Xu Liao, he smiled and greeted them before quickly walking out of the station.
Although Xu Liao knew that the people taking this subway were definitely monsters, he couldn't help but have a good impression of this boy who looked like a neighbor's older brother. When he walked out of the subway, he thought that since everyone was coming to the Monster Affairs Department in the capital, he might be able to talk to them.
However, when Xu Liao discovered that the subway exit was actually inside the Forbidden City, he immediately forgot about it and was shocked once again.
Bei Du City was the ancient capital of six dynasties. The Forbidden City in Bei Du City was known as the world's number one royal palace complex. Every day, tourists would come to this scenic spot and queue up to buy tickets. Apart from the off-season, it was always so crowded that armed police had to maintain order.
A subway station could be built inside the Forbidden City. What kind of concept was that?
Zhao Yanqin brought him around a secluded corner door and walked in. They turned left and right, and very quickly, they arrived in front of a very majestic palace. Compared to the other areas in the Forbidden City, this palace was as quiet as a school during winter break. There wasn't even a single bird around.
Only then did Xu Liao realize that the so-called Monster Affairs Department in the capital actually occupied a space in the Forbidden City. It was really noble to a certain extent.
Zhao Yanqin pointed at the palace and introduced it. "This palace is called Yunxi Palace. There's no trace of it in any historical records of humans. It can only be found in the historical records of us monsters. When the Ming Dynasty unified the world, not only was he the ruler of humans, but he was also the commander of all demons. He set up the Haoji Heavenly Tablet in Yunxi Palace to stabilize the fate of the country. Later, when the Ming Dynasty declined, this place was sealed by the Manchurian emperor. It was only after the Manchurian dynasty declined that the seal was released. "
Xu Liao couldn't even utter a word of praise. He had come into contact with too many new things today, so he could only silently follow Zhao Yanqin into Yunxi Palace.
When they entered Yunxi Palace, the first thing he saw was a divine tablet. It was made of black gold, and its shape was simple and unadorned. It was a thousand meters tall, like a towering mountain that pierced through the clouds. It was majestic and imposing. The base of the tablet had a radius of a hundred meters and was made of mutton fat jade. Xu Liao didn't know the price of this kind of stone at all. Otherwise, he would have crawled over and tried to see if he could knock a piece off.
The body of the tablet was divided into nine layers, and countless spiritual beasts, demons, and ghosts were engraved on it. Every one of them was like a living creature. In an instant, Xu Liao felt like an army of tens of thousands of demons had broken through the Nine Heavens and descended into this world.
Xu Liao subconsciously took a step back. Only then did he realize that he had lost control of himself.
Zhao Yanqin giggled and said, "You're not too bad! Many monsters with newly awakened bloodlines couldn't withstand the pressure of the Haoji Heavenly Tablet. There were even cowards who knelt and fainted on the spot. "
Xu Liao smiled embarrassedly and asked, "Let's go through the naturalization procedures first. Do I need my ID?"
Zhao Yanqin pulled Xu Liao's hand and directly went up the Haoji Heavenly Tablet. She said, "You have to first test what bloodline you've awakened before you go through the naturalization procedures. Otherwise, the species on the demon registration card can't be categorized. The Haoji Heavenly Tablet is a legendary treasure from the Heavenly Court. The monsters on the tablet are all living demons suppressed by the Heavenly Court. It's just that they can't leave the Heavenly Tablet. As long as you place your hand on the stele and sense the demons sealed within, if you sense any demon that has a sense of intimacy with your bloodline, that will be your Ancestral Bloodline. If you're lucky, you might even be able to comprehend the bloodline legacy and obtain a cultivation technique. "
