The Xia Family, one of the Thirteen Families, has its ancestral home in Beilai City. Even though the Sun has been extinguished for four years now and chaos reigns outside, everything in Beilai City remains orderly.
The destruction of the Upper Realm seemed not to have significantly affected this family. The Xia Family collected countless provisions before and after the catastrophe, ensuring a life of abundance and prosperity. The nearby residents also benefited from the Xia Family's generosity and did not become displaced.
Beilai City's commerce remains thriving, with bustling markets, taverns, and inns, and the school continues to operate normally.
Chen Shi walked barefoot through these places, thinking to himself, "On their doorstep, a grand family must maintain some dignity, unlike the disgraceful sights elsewhere."
