Compared with other branches, the area under the jurisdiction of Yongting Branch is not vast, with a radius of tens of thousands of miles, and most of the cities are located in the east of this area.

Xu Pei seemed to know this place very well and took Chen Yang directly to the city closest to Yongting Branch, Gu'an City.

In Gu'an City, after meeting the city lord and the Yongting Branch Cultivators stationed here, Chen Yang and Xu Pei continued to the next city.

The dozens of cities that Chen Yang is responsible for inspecting are all large cities. As for the small cities under his supervision, there is no need to inspect them. Otherwise, the inspection may not be completed in a month.

According to Xu Pei, the main purpose is to let the city lord and others get to know Chen Yang, so as to avoid others' mistakes being exposed when they review.

After a day, that night, Chen and Yang arrived at Gujiaocheng, the farthest place from Yongting Branch.

This is the last city. It is located in a remote area. It is surrounded by a desolate Gobi desert for thousands of miles. It does not have any beneficial resources, so the development of the city is very backward.

However, although this place is backward, it is a paradise for wanderers and wealthy people.

The entire city has become extremely chaotic because of these people. Various small forces emerge in endlessly in the city, and fights and deaths and injuries occur at any time.

Although the people who can gain a foothold in this city are not considered strong, they all have some abilities and smart minds.

Because Gujiao City does not have much value, Yongting Branch's management method is to govern by doing nothing.

As long as the people in Gujiao City do not go to other areas to cause chaos on a large scale, then everything in Gujiao City will be left to them to decide on their own, and Yongting Branch will not interfere.

Of course, this does not mean that Yongting Branch has given up on this place.

Since it is in Guiyuanzhou, it is under the Jiyin Palace and cannot be out of control, at least not in name.

"Qingxing Gambling House, you can bet on people, goods, and heads. You can bet on anything you want, as long as you are willing."

"After taking the Shengtian Pill, you will enter the fantasy world. You can do whatever you want. Even if you want to become a Star Lord, I will satisfy you."

"The treasure shop has the most advanced sword, a five-marked artifact. As long as you have this thing, even the city lord can't beat you."

…

As soon as Chen Yang and Xu Pei stepped into the ancient corner city, they heard noisy sounds. In the night, it seemed even more noisy, impetuous and chaotic.

Dust was rising on the narrow road, and in the shops with lanterns hanging along the street, people were soliciting customers.

Many wanderers, swordsmen, and murderers traveled from shop to shop, enjoying temporary happiness without thinking about tomorrow.

In the doorway where light and shadow intersect, a woman with beautiful flowers is waving her handkerchief and smiling charmingly at the men coming and going.

Beside the gate, several children in ragged clothes huddled together, with several broken bowls in front of them. They trembled and prayed to passers-by, but there were only a few dusty steamed buns in the bowls.

Because of the special nature of Ancient Cape City, almost all the people who come and go here are cultivators. It is only a piece of cake to help a few homeless children.

However, there is no one with good intentions.

"Oh, how pitiful."

Xu Pei sighed, took out a spiritual tablet in his hand, and walked towards the wanderers.

"No."

Chen Yang quickly stopped Xu Pei.

Xu Pei looked sulky, glared at Chen Yang, and scolded: "Dongfang Xuan, these children are so pitiful, you actually want to sit back and ignore them, you are too cold-blooded."

"I'm not cold-blooded." Chen Yang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "If you give them the spiritual stone, will they be able to keep it? I'm afraid that when you and I leave, the spiritual stone will be snatched away." Maybe, even their lives will be threatened.”

Xu Pei was stunned for a moment, frowned and said, "Then... what should I do?"

"Either change the entire Gujiao City, change these children, or take them away."

Chen Yang mentioned three plans. Except for the first one, the latter two methods were not difficult for him.

Xu Pei nodded and said: "In that case, when we leave, I will take them away and let them go to a wealthy city, where they can at least live a stable life for a lifetime."

"No." Chen Yang shook his head and said, "What we need to do is to change Gujiao City."

Xu Peidao: "Gujiao City has been like this thousands of years ago, and it continues to this day. None of this can be changed. Don't even think about wasting your efforts."

"The reason why Gujiao City is like this is because there are no good resources here, so it has not been taken seriously. If Yongting Branch really wants to renovate this place, how can these ronin and swordsmen stop it."

Chen Yang stepped forward. This time he really planned to have a good chat about the renovation of Gujiao City after meeting the city lord.

"Dongfang Xuan, this is the law of nature in Gujiao City."

Xu Pei quickly caught up with Chen Yang and said in a deep voice.

Chen Yang smiled and said: "Since Brother Xu said it is a natural law, then why do you want to help those children?"

"Helping a few children will not violate the laws of nature." Xu Pei argued.

At this time, I saw a few drunkards kicking over the broken bowls on the ground of the street children, and making ferocious looks, which made the street children shrink into a ball in fear.

The drunkard laughed and left, leaving behind a few children who picked up gray steamed buns and ate them.

"What a bastard."

Xu Pei looked sulky, flicked the tiny stars, and killed several drunkards calmly.

The drunkards fell to the ground, and no one thought they were drunk. It was just death, which was common in Ancient Cape City, so no one cared about it at all. Some people even walked over their corpses for fun.

Looking at this absurd scene, Chen Yang suddenly laughed to himself. There are many places like this in the vast Thirteen Prefectures. How much can he help?

"Let's go, this ancient corner city needs to be reorganized even if it can't be renovated."

Xu Pei walked quickly towards the city lord's mansion with a sullen look on his face.

As for what he just said about Chen Yang going against nature, he has already forgotten it.

The City Lord's Mansion of Ancient Corner City is a three-story house built of loess, hidden in a narrow street corner. Except for the plaque at the door that reads "City Lord's Mansion", its dilapidated appearance makes it impossible to imagine that this is actually a City Lord's Mansion.

Generally speaking, the city lords of each city are hereditary and obey the orders of the Yongting branch, but are not appointed by the Yongting branch.

Gujiao City is an exception. Because no one wants to inherit the position of city lord, the city lord can only be appointed by Yongting Branch.

This is a hard job and no one wants to come. The current city lord has been here for more than a thousand years and is considered a veteran here.

Chen Yang and Xu Pei had just walked into the city lord's mansion when a fat old man ran past, his beard fluttering in the wind, and a flattering smile on his face, saying: "Inspector Your Majesty and the inspectors are here in great numbers, and some are welcomed from afar, and some are welcomed from afar."
