When Li Yi and his group returned to Red Mountain City, the city was already noticeably less crowded.
Because Li Yi had driven out all the slaves and the warriors guarding Red Gold Mountain, many warriors, who represented families, were also leaving. Some even had many slaves, followers, and guests in Red Mountain City.
Their departure naturally took a large group of people with them.
For this reason, many Merchant Masters, fearing future retribution, also chose to leave temporarily.
This made the once bustling Red Mountain City suddenly deserted.
However, this was a good thing for Li Yi. The secret of Red Gold Mountain was too significant, and the fewer people lingering here, the better. He felt driving away those people was the right decision.
But a city without order or management wouldn't work either.
