The system favors me so much, I get eight meals a day while escaping from famine

Ling Yue himself often saw such scenes, so he didn't find it strange.

But he didn't think much about it, because he had tried it before and couldn't remember it at all.

Jiang Qingyi probably felt the change in Ling Yue's mood, but she didn't ask much. She just picked up the small teapot and poured him a cup of tea.

Not long after, Jiang Qingyi heard Yuan's call. She had returned with her tribesmen.

Under Ling Yue's eyes, Jiang Qingyi directly took them back to the space.

In this situation, Ling Yue would only think that Jiang Qingyi had taken them back to the spirit pet space, which was not a strange thing.

After returning to the space, Yuan reported to Jiang Qingyi what he had learned in the City Lord's Mansion.

"Master, the little girl in the City Lord's Mansion might be sacrificed."

"What's going on?"

"I'm not sure. I just heard it outside the study over there. I didn't dare get too close because of the formation. I probably heard the words of sacrifice, but I'm not sure if the one being sacrificed was the little girl."

Hearing this, Jiang Qingyi felt a little uneasy.

She really couldn't imagine how much use the hybrids of humans and demons could have.

Can sacrificing a half-blood really awaken the demon general?

Or was it more than just that half-blood being sacrificed?

Jiang Qingyi's intuition told her that something special was going to happen, and that this thing was very dangerous.

She was anxious in her heart, but her expression was relatively calm, so Ling Yue opposite her did not notice anything unusual about her.

Jiang Qingyi continued to ask in her heart, "Is there any other situation in the City Lord's Mansion?"

"No, there aren't many people who can move freely there. They seem to have fixed places to stay. I didn't look at those places much."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your hard work this time. Go back and have a good rest."

"It's not hard, Master."

After finishing the conversation with Yuan, Jiang Qingyi did not continue talking to Ling Yue.

They still have no idea about the affairs of the City Lord's Mansion, and they can't make sense of it even if they talk about it, so it's better not to talk about it.

Originally Si Xiu said he would be here in the morning, but Jiang Qingyi and the others waited until noon and still hadn't seen any sign of him.

Ji Fusang sent a message but received no response.

This sudden accident made Jiang Qingyi and the others feel a little worried.

In the afternoon, Jiang Qingyi and others went downstairs. They just sat in the lobby of the inn, perhaps they could know what happened in the city.

Surprisingly, the lobby of the inn was almost full at this time, with a lot more people than in the previous few days.

Under normal circumstances, there would be nothing wrong with this situation.

But after hearing Yuan talk about the sacrifice, Jiang Qingyi couldn't help but think more about it.

Seeing that more people continued to come in, Jiang Qingyi and the others quickly found a table and sat down.

They probably occupied the last table, and people who came in later started to look for tables with fewer people.

Mu Yu was also confused when she saw this situation. She asked in confusion, "What's going on today? Why are there so many people?"

There were too many people, and the waiter at the inn was too busy to handle it. It took a while before he came to Jiang Qingyi's table. "Would you like to eat something, fellow Taoist?"

Jiang Qingyi shook her head. "No need. Just give us two pots of tea."

The guy asked again, "Just tea?"

"Yes, but young man, why are there so many people in the inn today?" Jiang Qingyi asked curiously.

The guy sighed, "You probably don't know yet. The message sent by the City Lord's Mansion didn't say why. Anyway, they are going to seal off the entire city for three days. No one inside can leave, and no one outside can come in. The teleportation array is also temporarily closed."

"But this should be a good thing for the inn. Look, there are more people here than before."

The guy turned around and looked around, then lowered his voice and said, "Nothing good can happen. This situation is the most likely to cause trouble. I just hope nothing goes wrong."

Jiang Qingyi asked again, "Has this happened here before?"

The guy simply nodded, "Yes, of course. It comes about once every ten years. It seems to be a tradition here. People who have lived here for a long time are probably used to it."

"That's so strange, so why did the city lord block this place?"

"I don't know about that. Anyway, people like us don't really know what the city lord wants to do.

But you don't have to worry too much, fellow Taoist. Everything will be back to normal in three days. Just stay in the city for the next two days.

I have things to do, so I won't chat any more. Your tea will be here soon."

Jiang Qingyi thanked him politely, "Thank you, little brother. You can go and do your work first."

After the waiter walked away, Jiang Qingyi and the others looked at each other.

Finally, Ji Fusang spoke first, "According to what that guy said, Master should have been stopped outside."

Mu Yu was a little worried. "Then what should we do? I always feel that the city lord has no good intentions in blocking the entire city."

"But this happens once every ten years. The city lord must have some special intention." Yan Chen holds a different opinion on this matter.

"I forgot to ask that guy if anything happened during the lockdown." Jiang Qingyi said with a little regret.

"There probably isn't an answer to this question. Even if something happens during the blockade, the City Lord's Mansion won't let everyone know. After all, this affects the City Lord's reputation." Ling Yue added.

Jiang Qingyi also looked around. She still felt that there were too many people and communication would be inconvenient because outsiders might overhear them.

Ji Fusang also knew that it was not a good idea to talk about these things in such an occasion, so he said, "Let's not talk about this anymore, let's talk about it when we get back."

Because there were so many people visiting the inn, the tea that Jiang Qingyi and the others ordered took a long time to arrive.

Just as Jiang Qingyi was listening carefully to what the people at other tables were saying, she heard Xiaobai's voice again, "There are quite a few demons in this city, so be careful."

"Xiaobai? How did you know that in space?"

"Please don't underestimate the power of the divine beast."

"Hold on, hold on, then where is the demon tribe you mentioned?"

"They are scattered, and the largest number is five kilometers northeast of you."

Jiang Qingyi thought about the places she had visited. Five kilometers northeast of where she was...

Fuck! It’s the City Lord’s Mansion!

Jiang Qingyi quickly asked, "Xiaobai, is there any breath of the demon general in that place?"

"Demon General? There is such a thing here?"

"Not sure, just guessing."

"If there is, I advise you to be prepared first. If a demon general really appears, everyone in this city will die."

"What! Is a demon general so powerful?"

"What do you think? The true strength of the demon general is probably equivalent to that of a newly ascended immortal. If you encounter one, don't think too much. Just go back to the space and hide."
