Supreme Dragon Seal

snow, blood...

One white and one red, but after blending together, it turned into a dark color.

After the sunlight was refracted by the snow, it looked pale, without a trace of warmth.

Kaitiankou's corpses were spread across a large area, and the tragic atmosphere still permeated the air. Some wild beasts followed the smell of blood and came to nibble on the corpses. There were also a group of vultures circling in the sky, ready to enjoy the next big meal.

Groups of adventurers appeared one after another, looking at the blood-soaked snow with horrified or complicated expressions, then avoided them and entered the wild land.

Qi Bei. Nord returned to Xiling City with a hundred black armored troops, and the five wolf generals and eight star generals followed obediently behind him. Everyone in the city looked at him with awe.

No one doubted Qi Bei's ability to control Xiling City anymore, and those who bet on him losing within three to five days all slapped themselves in the face.

In front of the city lord's mansion, there was still a bloody smell. When Qi Bei went to Kaitiankou, people from the three major forces came to attack the city lord's mansion. At that time, everyone who watched the excitement thought that Qi Bei was going to die.

But the weird scene that followed was jaw-dropping. The Blood Wolf and Xingchen people suddenly fought back, and cooperated with the black armor army in the city lord's mansion to kill the Phantom's people without leaving any behind.

Then Qi Bei returned safely, followed by the five wolf generals and the eight star masters, and many people figured out the taste, and dared to believe that the city lord had already subdued the blood wolf and the stars among the three major forces.

Thousands of qualified fighters and magicians were recruited by the City Lord's Mansion. These people formed groups of ten, with a black-armored sergeant as the team leader. They were divided into one hundred groups to patrol Xiling City in turn, and killed hundreds of people fighting in Xiling City. This made everyone believe that Qi Bei's words were not false, and Xiling City became unprecedentedly stable.

In the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, Qi Bei was dressed in a brocade robe, looking at the map of Xiling City hanging in the hall.

Xiling City is indeed very big, about half the size of the Golden Leaf Imperial City.

At this time, Qi Bei's gaze was fixed on the area of ​​Xicheng District. Xicheng District occupies nearly one-fifth of the area of ​​Xiling City, but there is not a level street or a good house. There are about 180,000 poor people living there.

Most of these poor people are old, weak, orphans, and many are the family members of some adventurers and businessmen. After these adventurers and businessmen died in the chaotic Xicheng Spirit, their families were reduced to slums.

"Master, what are you looking at?" Phantom walked behind Qi Bei and whispered, a pair of jade hands habitually pressed his shoulders.

"Looking at my territory, the next snowstorm shouldn't be far away. I'm thinking, how to arrange these poor people in Xicheng District." Qi Bei said.

Phantom was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what to think of, and he was suddenly in a daze.

Qi Bei turned his head, but saw that Phantom's beautiful eyes were full of tears. He took her hand and let her sit on his lap. He gently stroked her face with his big hand, and said, "No matter what you go through, I will always be by your side in the future."

Phantom didn't speak, just shook his head, tears streaming down one after another.

"Hey, don't cry, Phantom doesn't cry..." Qi Bei hugged Phantom in a hurry, and comforted him softly, not quite understanding why she was so sad all of a sudden.

Outside, a look of pain flashed in the pillar-like eyes of Vajra. He always thought that his sister was too young to remember what happened that year, but now it seems that she has always remembered it, but never said it.

The one-eyed man next to him saw the vajra's copper bell-like eyes full of hostility, so he couldn't help but put his hand on his shoulder lightly.

King Kong turned his head, looked at the one-eyed worried gaze, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, suppressing the hostility in his eyes.

At this time, Murong Xingchen entered the City Lord's Mansion, followed by three elf girls named Yan Ling.

After hearing the report, Phantom wiped away tears indiscriminately, jumped up from Qi Bei's arms, and ran to the backyard.

Murong Xingchen was still wrapped in a turban, with a light veil covering his face, revealing only a trace of star-like eyes.

"Xingchen, do you miss my young master?" Qi Bei asked with a smile, stepped forward and pushed Murong Xingchen into the hall.

Behind them, the three elf girls of Yan Ling exchanged a glance.

Murong Xingchen ignored Qi Bei's verbal teasing, his eyes stayed on the map hanging in the hall as soon as he entered, and he saw the slums in Xicheng circled with red lines, he couldn't help but flash a hint of surprise.

Qi Bei noticed Murong Xingchen's gaze, and remembered her identity as Murong doctor, couldn't help but smile, and said, "You came here for this poor man?"

"En." Murong Xingchen nodded.

At this time, the three elf girls retreated quietly, and closed the door of the hall by the way.

Qi Bei remembered what Yan Ling said, and a strange feeling flashed in his heart, these three girls really did their best, it seemed that they were determined to bring Murong Xingchen together with him.

"Xingchen, do you think we have a good understanding? I was just thinking about how to deal with these poor people." Qi Bei pulled a chair and sat next to Murong Xingchen.

"Really? Is there anything you can do?" Murong Xingchen looked at Qi Bei with a softer gaze. She had thought about it before, but the chaos in Xiling City made her tread on thin ice. Without absolute ruling power, she would only become the target of public criticism for transforming the slums.

"There is no detailed plan yet, but before the next blizzard comes, we will build a batch of simple masonry houses first, so that they can survive this winter first. Later, when my young master integrates all walks of life, there are many jobs that don't require much effort. They can also make a living by themselves." Qi Bei said.

Murong Xingchen's beautiful eyes were shining faintly, and she looked at Qi Beidao: "Are you really willing to help them? You won't get any good by doing so."

In the eyes of the nobles, isn't it only their own interests? Aren't the people of the lower class all humble? The nobles in Murong Xingchen's heart are all like this, no matter how personable they are on the surface, how gentlemanly and elegant they are, their nobility is only highlighted when they trample on the people at the bottom.

Qi Bei smiled lightly and said, "Do you think so? In fact, when I help them, I help myself. The prosperity of a territory is not measured by gold coins alone. It is measured by the overall living standard of the territory. If everyone in my territory is rich and there is no hunger or poverty, then this is the greatest benefit I can get."

Qi Bei doesn't want to hypocritically say that there is no class distinction in his territory. In any era, any race and class must exist.

Murong Xingchen stared blankly at Qi Bei, it was the first time she saw this side of him, the side that moved her heart.

Qi Bei peeled a fruit, stretched out his hand and pulled off Murong Xingchen's veil, and handed the fruit to her mouth.

Murong Xingchen raised his hand to take the fruit, but Qi Bei dodged it, and then brought the fruit to her mouth with domineering eyes.
