Chapter 895 There is always a way out

At the same time.

The family members returned to the family like lost dogs with the few and worthless information they found.

Liu Gaoyuan listened to the reports of the children, frowning as if twisted into a dough.

The useful information brought back by these disciples was rare, and they knew nothing about the situation outside the city.

The city gates were closed, just like a copper wall and iron wall. On the city wall, there was the strict defense of the city lord's mansion. They couldn't go there rashly. If they went there, they would be like moths flying into the fire and destroying themselves.

Liu Gaoyuan fell into deep contemplation. Although this investigation did not encounter severe obstruction from the city lord's mansion, it also yielded almost nothing.

This made him clearly realize that it was far more difficult than he imagined to explore the secrets outside the city.

"It seems that the defense of the City Lord's Mansion is extremely tight. It is not easy to force our way out of the city gate. We have to find another way." Liu Gaoyuan muttered to himself, revealing a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.

After hearing the reports from their children, the other family representatives also looked embarrassed, like eggplants hit by frost, listless.

They originally hoped to find some breakthroughs from this investigation to point out the direction for the future development of the family. Now that their hopes have been dashed, they are extremely anxious.

"What should we do? We can't just sit there and wait for death." A family representative said anxiously.

"Don't worry, let's analyze the current situation carefully. Maybe we can start from other aspects."

Liu Gaoyuan tried to stabilize the emotions of the crowd. He knew that at this critical moment, their family forces must unite as one, otherwise it will be difficult to cope with the current predicament.

Just as the various family forces were discussing countermeasures, Lin Xiaoqing came to Lao Zhang's workshop.

After Longqing City settled down, Zhang Lejian returned to the workshop. It was more comfortable for him to stay here.

Zhao Linger had left the space of all things a long time ago. After Longqing City settled down, she no longer worried about Zhang Lejian's safety.

After all, entering the space of all things is much more convenient than going to Longqing City in the past. She can come in at any time.

Although Zhang Lejian was blind, he still sensed that someone had entered the workshop and stopped his work. "Is it Qing'er?"

"Grandpa Zhang, it's me. Are you okay here?" Lin Xiaoqing walked to Zhang Lejian and supported him.

"Haha, it's good. Girl, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

"Grandpa Zhang, I want to ask Miss Ling'er about things outside the city. Do you know where she is?"

Zhang Lejian shook his head and chuckled, saying, "I don't know where she is either. She is always mysterious and I have never asked."

Lin Xiaoqing felt disappointed, but she did not give up. She continued, "Grandpa Zhang, Longqing City is now facing a serious shortage of immortal cultivation resources. If it cannot be solved as soon as possible, the consequences may be disastrous."

Zhang Lejian pondered for a moment and understood Lin Xiaoqing's difficulties at the moment. "Qing'er, this shortage of immortal cultivation resources is indeed tricky. But Miss Ling'er said before that she should not leave the city for the time being. Let's wait and see."

Lin Xiaoqing looked silent. She originally wanted to ask Zhao Ling'er about the situation, but now she couldn't even see Zhao Ling'er.

"Miss Ling'er said before that she would wait for her master to solve it, but now two days have passed and her master has not shown up. I am really a little worried." Lin Xiaoqing frowned even tighter, her eyes full of anxiety.

"Don't panic, girl. There will always be a way out." Zhang Lejian's voice was steady and powerful, trying to give Lin Xiaoqing some calmness.

Lin Xiaoqing nodded slightly, but the worries in her heart were hard to dissipate.

She now missed Lin Bingchun's days even more. She couldn't help thinking, "What would my father do if he faced such a problem?"

Longqing City, in front of the Wanwu Grocery Store.

Liu Jiang stood with his hands behind his back, his posture was as straight as a pine tree, his deep eyes staring at the bustling and endless crowds on the street, but his heart seemed to be surging with endless waves, full of emotion.

Longqing City was suddenly moved to the Wanwu space, and this change caught everyone in the city off guard.

The Wanwu Grocery Store, which was once crowded and bustling, is now in an unprecedented depression.

The past scene of guests and laughter no longer exists, and only the passers-by who occasionally pass by have confusion and anxiety in their eyes.

Although Liu Jiang had declared to everyone that even if the location was changed, there would be no shortage of supplies sold in the Wanwu Grocery Store, and everything would be supplied as usual, few people responded.

Only a few immortal cultivators, with a hint of temptation and helplessness, stepped hesitantly into the slightly deserted store.

The reason was that everyone had hidden worries in their hearts. Once the spirit stones in their pockets were used up, where would they go to find replenishment?

Liu Jiang sighed helplessly and turned to walk into the grocery store.

But he didn't worry too much. He knew best that the current situation was only temporary.

After this transition period, the business of the Wanwu Grocery Store will still be good.

When he stepped into the store, he saw that all the guys were dejected, as listless as eggplants hit by frost.

They were either dazed with empty eyes or sorting the goods weakly, completely without the vitality and enthusiasm of the past.

At that moment, he cleared his throat and said, "Everyone cheer up, this is just a temporary predicament, we have to believe that everything will get better."

However, the guys just managed to force out a smile, which was uglier than crying. The responses were also sparse and there was no enthusiasm at all.

One of the young guys seemed to be unable to suppress his worries and muttered softly: "Shopkeeper, now the city gates are closed, cultivation resources are scarce, and everyone is worried about the future. How can they have the heart to come to our grocery store to buy things?"

Liu Jiang heard it and chuckled slightly, "I, the shopkeeper, am not in a hurry, so why are you in a hurry?

And relax, there will be a way to get to the mountain, and everything will go smoothly and get back on track."

After leaving Lao Zhang's workshop, Lin Xiaoqing did not return to the city lord's mansion along the same route.

Instead, she was obsessed with searching for Zhao Linger's traces everywhere in Longqing City.

Her beautiful face was full of determination, and her eyes showed a trace of anxiety and expectation.

But everyone in the city knew very little about her. She ran around for a long time, but still couldn't find Zhao Linger.

With no other choice, they had to drag their tired bodies and slowly return to the City Lord's Mansion.

On the family side, Liu Gaoyuan and representatives of various families gathered together, and the atmosphere was solemn.

Everyone looked solemn, and there seemed to be sparks flashing when their eyes met.

After a fierce discussion, they weighed the pros and cons and finally decided to try to communicate and cooperate with the City Lord's Mansion.

They believed that although the City Lord's Mansion had kept silent about the things outside the city before, now that Longqing City was facing such a predicament, the City Lord's Mansion might change its attitude.

So, Liu Gaoyuan took several family representatives to the City Lord's Mansion and marched towards the City Lord's Mansion in a mighty manner.
