Su Yang and Gu Xiu rode their swords out of the prefectural city.

After a short while, they arrived at the border of Linjiang City.

While flying in mid-air, Su Yang suddenly noticed a large number of people sleeping on the ground outside the city walls of Linjiang City.

It looked like a refugee camp.

“Old Gu, let’s go down and take a look.”

Since they were here to solve problems, they should investigate what was happening.

Could it be that the oppression of the Snake Sect had reached such an extreme level?

The common people didn’t even have houses to live in?

“Old man, why are you all gathered here?”

An old man who was sitting on the ground and munching on dry food looked up and quickly stood up when he saw the approaching individuals.

“Sir, some of us have fled here from the neighboring Kaiyang City, while others have moved here from the village because of the Evil Blood Cultivation Sect.” The old man replied respectfully upon seeing Su Yang’s official attire, revealing some information:

They had fled here.

If the person in front of them was a good official, they might take care of them, right?

Li Tong calculated in his mind. but he appeared cautious.

“Fled here from Kaiyang City?” Su Yang thought of the task on the panel and said in a deep voice, “Is it because of the drought?”

“Yes, sir!” Li Tong became excited. He felt like the person in front of him would take care of things.

“I understand. I will deal with this matter soon.”

“Since you fled here, why didn’t you enter the city?”

Su Yang glanced over and saw at least thousands of refugees gathered there.

But they seemed to have food and shelter, and some had even built makeshift houses. They didn’t appear extremely impoverished.

“Sir, it’s not that we didn’t try to enter the city. It’s just that there are too many people trying to get in, and entry has been restricted for now. We can only stay outside the city.” Li Tong explained the reason.

Su Yang quickly understood.

The Blood Cultivation Sect targeted small villages, so Tianfeng Prefecture temporarily gathered the villagers from those villages in the city for safety. But as a result, a large number of people naturally flocked in, and the city couldn’t accommodate them all at once.

It was normal; they couldn’t be considered refugees; it was just that the city couldn’t accommodate them due to restrictions.

“I understand. I will handle this matter soon.” Su Yang nodded, feeling touched.

Regardless of the conflicts between cultivators, the chaos in the martial world, or the atrocities committed by evil cultivators, it was the common people who suffered the most.

They had no right to resist; they could only accept all the disasters and struggle for survival in the midst of calamity, praying to live.

Fortunately, from the current perspective, the imperial court was not completely inactive.

However, it seemed that Daxia was currently facing too many issues, and even if the rulers had ideas, their power was insufficient to implement them.

In such an era where the strong reigned supreme, the weak were the ones who suffered.
