C19 Planning

"There should be around a hundred thousand or so refugees in the entire Xuanshan City. This is indeed a great merit."

After Old White left, Xiao Fann sat on the bed alone and mumbled to himself, thinking about how to get the power of contribution points to heal his Spiritual Sea of Consciousness's injuries.

As the Young City Lord of Xuanshan City, it wasn't hard for Xiao Fann to help the hundred thousand refugees, but, this guy's past reputation was too bad. If he didn't scheme properly, perhaps even if he settled down the hundred thousand refugees, they wouldn't be grateful to him in their hearts.

"It hurts …" Thinking about that, Xiao Fann felt a sharp pain in his head, as if his head was about to split open.

Xiao Fann covered his head with both hands as he lay on the bed, covered in sweat. At first, he cried out in pain, but then he seemed to get used to the pain, and his voice trailed off. Finally, he gritted his teeth so hard that his lips bled.

"Second Young Master, what's wrong?" Is there anything you need me to do? " Someone knocked on the door.

"It's fine, don't enter my courtyard." Xiao Fann clenched his teeth and roared.

"Yes, yes, yes." When the manservant outside heard Xiao Fann's angry roar, he immediately ran away in fear, afraid that he would anger the second young master so much that he would lose his life.

In the room, Xiao Fann was sweating like it was raining. His clothes were already wet, and even his bed was wet by a large amount of sweat.

Xiao Fann endured the pain and rushed to the side of the table to drink the water from the kettle. If he did not replenish the water, even if he did not die from the pain, he would still die from dehydration.

The pain lasted for more than an hour before it subsided. When the pain passed, Xiao Fann had almost collapsed.

"It's good that it hurts a lot. If it's been like this all day, then it would truly be living a hellish life." After resting for over an hour, Xiao Fann finally managed to catch his breath.

"Someone, clean the room."

Xiao Fann was, after all, at the peak of the Body Tempering realm and his physical strength recovered quickly. Two hours later, he left the small courtyard full of energy.

After more than an hour of being tortured by a headache, Xiao Fann felt as if there was something extra on his body. However, he could not say what it was.

"Beyond the limit, the path of cultivation is to defy the heavens. I seem to have understood a bit." Xiao Fann murmured with a hint of determination in his eyes.

When Xiao Fann consumed the Body Tempering Pill, he endured the pain that was as painful as death. Old White had once said that the path of cultivation was a heaven-defying path, and the amount of pain and difficulty one would experience to achieve great success was far greater than this.

When he was cultivating the Will Sword Body, the impact from the broken energy in Xiao Fann's Spiritual Sea of Consciousness was a mental pain. Xiao Fann hadn't really stepped onto the road of cultivation yet, but he had already experienced it.

On the path of cultivation, one had to retreat before advancing. If one wanted to have powerful strength, they had to pay a corresponding price. If one wanted to laugh at the world, they had to pay an enormous price.

The Heavenly Dao was fair, and one had to pay as much as they wanted to obtain it. In this world, there were some people who were usually incomparably strong, able to cover the sky with their hands, able to call the wind and summon the rain, making people envious.

When Xiao Fann arrived in front of Uncle Fu, Uncle Fu stared blankly at Xiao Fann and only felt that Xiao Fann's temperament had changed drastically in a day. The former Xiao Fann would always give people a lazy feeling, but the current Xiao Fann, although he was dressed the same as before, but he seemed to be more spirited than ever, as if he was a valiant general who was ready to charge into a battle at any time.

"Hahaha, good, good." Uncle Fu laughed out loud and repeated the word "good" several times.

"Uncle Fu, if I want to help the one hundred thousand refugees in Xuanshan City, what should I do?" Xiao Fann directly asked Uncle Fu.

"Why would Second Young Master think of helping the one hundred thousand refugees with Xuanshan City?" Uncle Fu asked in confusion.

"Hehe, I just feel that the impression I left on Xuanshan City is too bad. I want to change the image that I have in the eyes of the common people in Xuanshan City." Xiao Fann naturally couldn't tell them the truth, so he made up a lie. Although he said it reluctantly, it was the best excuse to do so. It was only with his identity as a prodigal that people could truly believe him.

"If the Second Young Master only wants to change the image in everyone's heart, then there's no need for us to do this. We cultivators do not need to care about the opinions of outsiders, as long as we are able to sit properly, we do not need to care about the opinions of the people in the Xuanshan City." He was shocked by Xiao Fann's sudden words. He had already thanked the heavens that the previous Xiao Fann did not destroy him, let alone Xiao Fann helping others.

"Even so, I still want to do something to change my image in the eyes of the world." Just as Uncle Fu said, if it wasn't for the sake of obtaining the power of 100,000 people, Xiao Fann wouldn't want to change his image in the eyes of the people.

"I'm afraid that there isn't much time left. After a while, we will be preparing to leave the Xuanshan City." Uncle Fu suddenly sighed and said.

"What?" We are leaving the Xuanshan City? "Where to?" Xiao Fann was shocked. The sudden news made him flustered, and he asked three questions in a row.

"After this old servant passed on the news of you breaking through to the peak of the Body Tempering stage to the old master, the old master replied, telling me to prepare to leave the Xuanshan City. As for where I am going, I will only wait for old master's reply." Uncle Fu said.

"Where is my father now?" Xiao Fann asked.

"I don't know the specifics either." Uncle Fu said.

"How much time is left?" He had enormous power and could use it. It would be relatively easy for him to obtain the hundred thousand contribution points worth of power, and if he were to leave the Xuanshan City, it would not be easy for him to obtain such a large amount of contribution points.

"Three months at most." Uncle Fu gave him this time.

"Three months. I should be able to make it soon enough." Then, he immediately raised his head and said to Uncle Fu: "Uncle Fu, since our Xiao Family is about to leave the Xuanshan City, then, there should be someone else holding the position of City Master of Xuanshan City, right?"

"Yes, the position of City Lord is directly appointed by the Imperial court." Uncle Fu answered.

Xuanshan City belonged to the Tiandu Dynasty, which could be considered a relatively powerful empire in the Eastern Wasteland. Every city's mayor was directly appointed by the dynasty.

"Although father is the lord of Xuanshan City, he has been absent from the Xuanshan City all year round and has not made much progress. Since we are about to leave, then, in the last three months, let me represent father in making some achievements."

The current him, because he was the City Lord of Xuanshan City, Second Young Master, his father, Xiao Zhan, was not within the Xuanshan City, and normally, all sorts of matters regarding Xuanshan City would be handled by Uncle Fu, although Xiao Zhan was the City Lord, but in reality, the one in charge of Xuanshan City was Uncle Fu. Although Uncle Fu held a high position, but he was completely loyal to the Xiao Family.

"With such power in your hands, it's just too easy for you to save a hundred thousand refugees with Xuanshan City."

Xiao Fann had a smile on his face. At this moment, he was confident that he would be able to gain enough contribution points before he left.

"Second Young Master still wants to help the 100,000 refugees in the city?" Uncle Fu asked.

Xiao Fann nodded and said: "Of course, when we leave the Xuanshan City, I want the entire Xuanshan City to be free of refugees. I want the Xuanshan City to flourish, and I want to let the ordinary people of the Xuanshan City to live a rich life." At this moment, Xiao Fann seemed to have become the victorious general that commanded the million strong army on the battlefield. He had a valiant aura, a valiant aura, and he rushed towards Yun Xiao.

Uncle Fu looked at Xiao Fann with a smile. He felt that Second Young Master, who he watched grow up since he was young, had finally grown up and felt gratified. He turned his head slightly to look at the east sky and whispered in his heart, "Miss, young master has finally grown up."

"Haha, since Second Young Master has this intention, how could I dare to disobey?" Uncle Fu laughed and agreed.

Uncle Fu watched as Xiao Fann grew up. In the past, Xiao Zhan entrusted Uncle Fu to him, and although Uncle Fu trembled in fear and trepidation, not allowing Xiao Fann to receive the slightest bit of harm, Xiao Fann had become the number one silkpants in Xuanshan City. This made Uncle Fu continuously feel guilty in his heart, and he felt ashamed to entrust Xiao Fann to him.

But now, Xiao Fann's cultivation had not only reached the peak of Body Tempering, but he had also been completely reborn. He no longer had the attitude of a popinjay, as if he had grown up overnight. This made Xiao Fann extremely happy.

"I believe Second Young Master already has a plan in mind as to what this old servant wants to do." Wu said with a smile that Xiao Fann wanted to do something and Wu agreed, but Wu wanted to see Xiao Fann's true ability. He only wanted to help Xiao Fann.

Seeing that Uncle Fu was very trusting of him, Xiao Fann felt a little awkward. What was he planning to do, he just wanted to use City Lord's Mansion's power to help him obtain merits, and didn't have the time to do anything about it.

"Uncle Fu, may I ask how much money we have in total?" Xiao Fann asked. In order to help 100,000 refugees, the first thing to do was to solve the problem of financing.

Uncle Fu slightly muttered to himself for a moment before saying: "Our City Lord's Mansion is different from the various large families and we don't manage any other businesses. Thus, all of our economic resources are just income from taxes, and we don't have much left over over over the years.

The other families within the Xuanshan City had already been inheriting it for hundreds of years, and were flourishing with many industries. This was something that City Lord's Mansion could not compare with.

"Five million gold coins is enough." Although Xiao Family controlled the entire Xuanshan City, there were still a small number of people, and Mayor Xiao Zhan was not present all year round, while Eldest Young Master Xiao Tian was also studying in the outside world, and only Uncle Fu, the old steward, and that Second Young Master, were present. Xiao Fann did not need to say that he had no skills in the past, and only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun;

To the controller of Xuanshan City, only five million gold coins were available, but it was enough for Xiao Fann, at least for now. If it was not enough later, he could only think of another way.

"How many people can we use?" Xiao Fann asked.

"Hur hur." Uncle Fu smiled slightly: "There are ten thousand guards in charge of City Lord's Mansion, and all of them are Cultivator. Moreover, some of their cultivation are not weak, and the fifty thousand soldiers of Xuanshan City can use them as well."

Xiao Fann nodded slightly. Ten thousand guards and fifty thousand soldiers, that was sixty thousand men. That was enough.

"Alright, since that's the case, please prepare the funds and troops. I will look for Uncle Fu when I need them." The money and troops were enough. Xiao Fann was confident that he could make a big fight out of it and obtain the power of contribution points to repair the damage on his Spiritual Sea of Consciousness within three months.

"Yes, young master can do whatever he wants. No matter what happens, this old servant will do it for you." Uncle Fu was very old. His hair was all white, his skin was withered, and even his back was a little crooked. Normally, he looked like a weak old man, but at this moment, a powerful aura flashed across Uncle Fu's body.

At this moment, he had no choice but to look at Uncle Fu in a new light. Xiao Fann was not surprised when he thought about it carefully, Uncle Fu was a butler of City Lord's Mansion, yet was able to control the entire Xuanshan City, and become the person in charge of Xuanshan City. If Uncle Fu did not have a strong power, how could he do this?

"It looks like I don't have to fear anyone within this Xuanshan City."

Xiao Fann muttered to himself in his heart. With Uncle Fu's powerful support, there was no need for him to be cowardly when doing things.
