The system favors me so much, I get eight meals a day while escaping from famine
Chapter 302: Some Follow-up
Ji Fusang, who was the first to go downstairs, saw the mummies lying all over the inn. He stopped and felt greatly shocked.
Arriving at the lobby, Ji Fusang suppressed his shock and looked around, but in the end he didn't see a single living person.
His voice became trembling. "What is going on? Did City Lord Jia sacrifice everyone?"
Jiang Qingyi nodded silently.
Although Ling Yue was also shocked by what he saw, he still looked calm, "From the perspective of this inn, it seems to be like this."
Mu Yu held Jiang Qingyi's arms tightly with both hands, her face turned a little pale.
Jiang Qingyi looked at her worriedly and could only pat the back of her hand to comfort her.
After coming out of the inn, there were mummies everywhere.
They all felt heavy in their hearts.
Even if I am mentally prepared, I still find it hard to accept this fact.
After all, it's not just one or two people, but the entire city.
Even though there is an invisible rule of the survival of the fittest among cultivators, sacrificing so many lives has never happened before.
Jiang Qingyi had something on her mind, and Yao came out under such circumstances, but he finally made a contract with her.
She even felt like she was an accomplice of the city lord.
If Jiang Qingyi had not been afraid that Yao would leave and go to harm other people in Zhongzhou, she would probably have terminated the contract at the very beginning.
However, Yao, a powerful weapon comparable to that of an immortal, still needs to be controlled.
Otherwise, if he were to mingle with the demons, Zhongzhou would really be doomed.
Jiang Qingyi shook her head and saw a figure standing outside the City Lord's Mansion.
At this time, Ji Fusang and others also noticed the existence of the woman.
Everyone went over there cautiously.
The closer Jiang Qingyi got to this figure, the more familiar she felt. Finally, the person turned around, and Jiang Qingyi called out her name in her heart, Jinxia.
She is still alive.
According to Jiang Qingyi's guess, those who can survive have cultivation levels above the Mahayana stage, while the others cannot hold on and will eventually turn into mummies.
Jinxia's eyes were full of sadness. That scumbag had accomplished what he wanted to do, and she was afraid that she would never see her child again in this life.
Jiang Qingyi walked past Ji Fusang and others and approached Jinxia.
"He died. I saw it with my own eyes."
Jinxia looked sad, "Then...where is my child, a little girl, have you seen her?"
Jiang Qingyi fell silent for a moment.
Jinxia knew the situation was not good when she saw Jiang Qingyi's expression, and her tears instantly came down.
She took a step forward and grabbed Jiang Qingyi's arm. "She's okay, right? Tell me she's still alive."
Jiang Qingyi remained silent, she didn't know how to start.
Mu Yu couldn't bear to see Jiang Qingyi get hurt by others, so she went over and pulled Jiang Qingyi away to get away from Jin Xia's questioning.
"Miss Jinxia, we just got here. If you want to know any news, just go in and take a look. Why bother my junior sister? She doesn't owe you anything."
Jin Xia was stunned for a moment, her eyes fixed on Jiang Qingyi, then she turned and walked into the City Lord's Mansion.
Mu Yu pulled Jiang Qingyi and whispered, "Are you stupid? Don't you know how to break free when she's holding you?"
Jiang Qingyi looked at Mu Yu and smiled.
"Senior sister, I just feel a little sorry. The child she mentioned should be the half-blood that was bled by the city lord.
I saw it before. The blood on her hands and feet had dried up. She looked really heartbreaking, you know.
So I just couldn’t bear to tell her the truth.”
After hearing Jiang Qingyi's explanation, Mu Yu was silent for a while, and then said, "Junior Sister, you don't have to worry too much. This matter is not something we can solve. City Lord Jia has been planning for so many years to make it a success. We should think about what to do next."
Jiang Qingyi shook her head. "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go in first. I'm afraid Master is getting impatient now."
Mu Yu also nodded and stopped the conversation.
Jiang Qingyi had been to the City Lord's Mansion before, and most of the formations inside had been broken by her, so it was unusually smooth for her to walk around now.
They soon arrived at where Si Xiu was, which was an underground altar.
The dean and the others were all here, and the body of the little girl lying on her side was still there, and no one seemed to care at all.
Jiang Qingyi closed her eyes and opened them again. How sad it would be for Jinxia if she saw her child being treated like this.
Si Xiu called them over when they arrived. Seeing Yue Chao being carried on Yan Chen's shoulders, Si Xiu asked Jiang Qingyi,
"Lao Wu, what is this?"
Jiang Qingyi whispered, "I was almost sucked dry, so I'm a little weak. I should wake up later."
"The pills don't work either?"
Jiang Qingyi shook her head, "No, Master, you should know better than me that it would be better for him to wake up naturally in this situation."
Si Xiu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Over there, the dean and his group were still discussing something around the altar.
Jiang Qingyi found that there seemed to be nothing she needed to do here, so she just stood there in a daze.
Not long after, Jinxia appeared at the entrance on the other side.
Everyone present turned their eyes to her when they heard the noise.
A tutor standing next to the dean asked, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Jinxia's attention was all on the little girl lying twistedly on the side. She seemed not to notice the other people on the field and rushed towards the little girl, staggering.
Her incomprehensible behavior made most people alert, and the instructors all drew their weapons and were ready for battle.
Only Jiang Qingyi was not on guard at all. She even turned her head slightly, not wanting to see such a scene.
Jinxia picked up the little girl's thin body and cried bitterly, which was very touching to watch.
Taiqing's expression changed for a moment. He whispered to Sixiu, "That little girl should be City Lord Jia's child. She is half human and half demon. This woman must have a secret."
Si Xiu also looked at Jin Xia, "She should be the Jin Xia who provided a lot of information. It's a pity that we came a little late and failed to save the girl."
Tai Qing shook his head and said nothing. He thought that it was better not to save her. Living as a half-human, half-demon would be a kind of suffering for the little girl, and she shouldn't have to endure it.
Si Xiu thought that the dean and his group didn't know Jin Xia's identity yet, so he walked over and told them.
After knowing this, the dean became wary of the little girl's body. He turned around and gave an instruction to the people around him, then left with his men.
Jiang Qingyi and the others naturally had to follow everyone.
When she left, she looked at Jinxia and didn't know what to do in the future.
Walking on the street, Jiang Qingyi didn't quite understand. She whispered to Ling Yue, "Brother, what do you think the dean and the others are planning to do?"
"I don't know. The demon general is not here. The dean and his men must want to know the whereabouts of the demon general. He is more dangerous than the entire demon clan attacking. I don't know what arrangements they will make."
"Also, the situation here will probably spread to other parts of Zhongzhou soon, and by then, I'm afraid there will be real chaos."
