Senior brother, stop it, you are the villain!

After more than ten days of flying, Feng Shao and others finally returned to Wuling City.

Most of the disciples from the major sects who had originally reinforced Wuling City had left by now, and the residents who had taken refuge had also returned one after another. Wuling City once again restored prosperity and peace, and the Chu-Qing Rebellion did not seem to have much impact on this young city.

Therefore, when Feng Shao returned to Wuling City, he saw a city that was not much different from before he left.

Seeing this scene, Feng Shao finally felt relieved.

Although Bai Shuanghua had already explained the specific situation in detail in the letter, she still had to see it with her own eyes before she could be completely relieved.

Feng Shao first asked someone to arrange accommodation for the "foreign students" from the Purple Pure Holy Land and the Tiangang Sword Sect, and then he couldn't wait to return to the City Lord's Mansion. Lin Xiaoran, who had already learned about Feng Shao's return, was already waiting eagerly at the door of the city lord's mansion. As soon as he saw Feng Shao, Lin Xiaoran couldn't wait to pounce on Feng Shao.

Seeing the couple reunited after a long absence, many onlookers smiled like aunts.

Except for two people.

One is Feng Lingyu, because he feels that his father doesn't seem to take him seriously, and all he cares about is his mother. He made him a little jealous, and he even considered running away from home so that his parents could pay more attention to him.

Fortunately, four-year-old boys tend not to think too much about one thing. After being pulled away by Feng Lingxue, he put this idea behind him.

The other one is Shao Yunqing.

Looking at the two people embracing each other passionately, although Shao Yunqing had already decided to forget the secret love in his heart, he still couldn't help but feel a sadness in his heart.

She was originally supposed to go back to the mountain with the other disciples of Jiuyin Holy Land, but before setting off, Holy Lord Jiuyin asked her to stay.

In her puzzled eyes, Holy Lord Jiuyin said calmly: "Yunqing, although you have excellent qualifications, it is always difficult to understand the relationship. If you cannot understand it, then your future cultivation path will not be smooth. . Based on your current situation, the faster you progress in practice, the harder it will be to control your inner demons when you advance in the future. For now, you can only move forward by facing up to your situation and finding a solution that suits you. OK."

As a powerful person in the Tribulation Realm who has been renowned for many years, Holy Lord Jiuyin's vision is far beyond that of Shao Yunqing. She had long seen that Shao Yunqing's so-called "abandonment of love" was just superficial. The actual situation was that she did not face the problem at all, but was avoiding it.

But avoidance is always a bad idea for a monk, because the knot in his heart will only become more and more difficult to get rid of as time goes by. In the end, it will even evolve into a powerful inner demon, causing the monk to become possessed and destroy years of practice. It can range from severe injuries to the meridians and become a cripple; to severe death, the body and soul will disappear.

Shao Yunqing was the most beloved disciple of Holy Lord Jiuyin. She did not want to see Shao Yunqing's future ruined because he could not stand the test of love. Although she was very unhappy, she could only let her stay to find a way to solve the relationship. As long as Shao Yunqing can no longer be trapped by love, she is willing to accept any outcome. If it didn't work out, she even planned to use her power to force Feng Shao to marry Shao Yunqing.

Moreover, no matter how you look at this matter, Feng Shao will not suffer any loss, so Holy Master Jiuyin also feels at ease.

However, Shao Yunqing knew nothing about the plan of Holy Lord Jiuyin.

After everyone in the Nine Yin Holy Land left, Shao Yunqing temporarily lived in the City Lord's Mansion under Lin Xiaoran's arrangement. In the past few days, she had temporarily put aside her cultivation and cultivated herself in the aura-filled plantation of the City Lord's Mansion. The ones who accompany her the most every day are Feng Lingyu and Feng Lingxue.

Oh yes, there is also a little phoenix.

Shao Yunqing originally thought that she might be prejudiced against Lin Xiaoran's son, but after seeing the little guy, the soft heartstrings in her heart were touched. Although Feng Lingyu was naughty at times, overall he was very obedient and brought some comfort to Shao Yunqing.

However, she lacked experience in getting along with children, so most of the time she played the role of a quiet listener, listening to Feng Lingyu's complaints about her parents and Feng Lingyu's confusion about her studies. Shao Yunqing rarely spoke, but every time she spoke, she gave advice after listening carefully and thinking carefully, which made Feng Lingyu feel valued.

Therefore, after getting along for a long time, Feng Lingyu's relationship with this godmother became better and better.

Even Feng Lingxue also changed her view of Shao Yunqing a lot.

Feng Lingxue also knew something about Shao Yunqing's affection for her master. But she had already been leaning towards her master's wife Lin Xiaoran, so she was more or less hostile towards Shao Yun Qingcun. Especially after all the disciples of the Nine Yin Holy Land left, but Shao Yunqing stayed, Feng Lingxue's heart was even more alarmed, and she felt that the person who came was not good.

So during this period of time, Feng Lingxue had been thinking about what reasonable means should be used to drive Shao Yunqing out of the city lord's mansion.

But what Feng Lingxue didn't expect was that Lin Xiaoran was quite generous in this matter. Not only did he welcome Shao Yunqing's stay, he also asked his only son to call her godmother. Feng Lingxue thought about Lin Xiaoran's unreasonable behavior for several days, and still couldn't figure out what the master's wife was thinking.

But now that Lin Xiaoran has made a decision, she, as a disciple, cannot confront him and can only let it go. But she was still a little distant from Shao Yunqing.

But as Feng Lingyu and Shao Yunqing became closer, Feng Lingxue felt something was wrong. What if the junior brother was pulled to her side by Shao Yunqing?

So Feng Lingxue began to frequently contact Shao Yunqing, so as not to lead the junior brother astray.

But to Feng Lingxue's surprise, Shao Yunqing did not make any unreasonable moves during their interactions, and the whole person was as if he was going to become a Buddha right away.

After spending some time with caution, Feng Lingxue gradually felt that perhaps Shao Yunqing really would not have any impact on the relationship between the master and the master's wife.

It seems that I was worrying too much.

After waiting for more than 20 days, the master finally returned home. But what Feng Lingxue did not expect was that among the people Feng Shao brought back, there were not only those who went out together at the beginning, but also many people who were kidnapped from the Tiangang Sword Sect and the Ziqing Holy Land.

What on earth did the master do?

After a round of greetings, Feng Shao and Lin Xiaoran were not able to stay together for too long, as some backlogged matters came to the door.

Feng Shao was away for more than three months. During these three months, most of the affairs of Wuling City were led by Dai Zhixin, so there were not many problems. However, as the city lord, Feng Shao still had to have some understanding of the current situation of Wuling City.

In general, although the Chu Qing Rebellion had a certain impact on Wuling City, the impact was not great, and it also created many opportunities for Wuling City. Apart from anything else, the two battles that Feng Shao fought with the special operations team brought two lucrative arms orders to Wuling City. One order came from the Tiangang Sword Sect, and the other order came from the Ziqing Holy Land.

When talking about this, Dai Zhixin was so excited that her eyes seemed to be flashing with the unique color of spirit stones, and she seemed to be obsessed with money.

However, Dai Zhixin believed that although the Lin Run of the arms order was not small, Wuling City should not rely on arms to make a fortune. Because arms are a double-edged sword, it is hard to say when this sword will cut you. Therefore, Dai Zhixin suggested that Wuling City could temporarily stop accepting arms orders on the grounds of "lack of production capacity".

Although arms orders could not be accepted, other orders could still be accepted. For example, Dai Zhixin felt that the production capacity in the business of gathering spirits and spiritual energy, which had been in business for four or five years, could be expanded.

During the period when the disciples of the Taixuan Holy Land and other sects were stationed in Wuling City, Dai Zhixin deliberately promoted them to the major sects. Originally, these sects had already developed a strong interest in the gathering spirits, and with Dai Zhixin's words, they finally prompted the major sects to grit their teeth and stomp their feet and place several orders with Wuling City.

Judging from the current production capacity of Wuling City, there will be no worries about work in the next two years at least.

After Dai Zhixin finished talking about the business of Wuling City, Bai Shuanghua focused on the construction of Wuling City.

Originally, before Feng Shao left, Wuling City had a proposal for urban expansion. However, since the city is too big, it will cause inconvenience in transportation, so this proposal has been shelved. The reason why the old matter is brought up again is because Bai Shuanghua discovered that Wuling City is facing a very serious problem.

Too many spirit stones.

Yes, you heard it right, there are too many spirit stones in Wuling City!

How much?

Now, the richest super power in the upper domain is still Yunjian Pavilion. But the current wealth of Wuling City is not much worse than Yunjian Pavilion.

If Wuling City continues to grab wealth at the current speed, it will have the hope of surpassing Yunjian Pavilion within two years and becoming the richest power in the entire upper domain.

Then the question is, when there is a certain amount of money, if there is no military force to match it, can so much money be defended?

And Wuling City is facing this problem.

In fact, all the officials in the meeting hall basically have the same view on this issue. Wuling City has reached the time when it must expand. Either Wuling City expands, or a new city is built on a site. Wuling City cannot confine its power to a small area, it must go out.

This is the situation that every power must face when expanding, and now it is Wuling City's turn. Now the Council believes that the best option at the moment is to expand the city, because although Wuling City is not short of money, it is short of people. Without enough management personnel, building a new city is obviously not a good choice.
