Chapter 1 The Lost City Lord (1)

What should you do if one day you suddenly travel to the cultivation world and become the city lord?
……

If the city is very poor, the population is scarce, and you have to take care of your family and children, and offer sacrifices to the main city every year, otherwise you will be removed from the city, what will you do?
……

What if the five elements are all abolished and the foundation cannot be established for a lifetime?
……

How would you choose?

……

Right now, Ling Xi is facing this kind of problem.

Ten days ago, she inexplicably came to this cultivation world called Yanhuang Continent, and became the young lady of the Ling family.

The original owner has a twin brother who is the Lord of Fengcheng.

The original owner and his elder brother Lingyun were attacked by monsters on their way back to the city after paying tribute, causing heavy casualties.

One of the brothers and sisters was injured and the other died, and the one who died was naturally the younger sister, that's why she came back from the corpse.

Ling Yun injured his spiritual root and went to retreat for at least a year and a half, and at most three to five years.It happened that the two looked alike, so her mother asked her to pretend to be her brother and sit in the city to seal the city until he left the customs.

The only people who knew about this matter were Mother Ling and the old butler at home.

At this very moment, the young and old of the Ling family were gathering in the hall, their faces full of sadness.

The boundaries of the Yanhuang Continent are divided into counties, prefectures, and Jingzhous.

The county and state where she is located is called Qingyang County.

There are many small cities under the counties and prefectures, and the closure of the city is one of them.

The Patriarch of the main city will divide the city into sub-cities and assign them to direct lineage, collateral lineage, subordinates, etc.

The original owner's grandfather was originally a capable subordinate of the Mu family in the main city, but after her grandfather and the previous head of the family passed away, her father was too weak to be reused, so she was assigned to seal the city five years ago.

The city owner of the sub-city needs to offer sacrifices to the main city every year.

In the past, the Ling family relied on resources from the spiritual fields in the city to pay tribute.

But now the spiritual field is thin, and the spiritual energy will definitely be exhausted within a year. After one year, what should the Ling family bring to the main city to pay tribute?

If the owner of the main city is not enshrined, the owner of the sub-city will be removed!
The Ling family will face the dilemma of being kicked out, not to mention the last wish of the original owner's father before his death - to revitalize the Ling family.

Right now, the whole family is discussing what to do in the future?

Seeing everyone looking at her, Ling Xi suddenly felt a headache.It's a pity that the real city lord is still recuperating in the place where the aura is the strongest in the back mountain.

What should we do if we wait for Ling Yun to come out, the city will be gone, and our family will have nowhere to go?
She didn't have much idea about revitalizing the Ling family.

It's just that when she traveled to another world, the first thing she saw was Ling Yun's life to protect her, so she was not harmed, but that person was seriously injured.

The grace of saving life should be repaid by the spring.

What's more, she occupies the body of someone else's daughter, and she is considered half of the Ling family!

So, it's not bad to play a business development game?

So, under the anticipation of everyone, Ling Xi said a word: "We will have a morning meeting tomorrow."

After saying that, he has strode away.

When Ling Xi arrived at the study, Housekeeper Ling followed.

In order not to arouse suspicion, she now lives in her brother's room and uses her brother's things, so the study is naturally Ling Yun's study.

Both brother and sister were injured, and they had no spiritual power and had been raised in a deep boudoir. At this time, it was publicized that they were recovering from their injuries, so no one doubted it.

She thought it over before saying: "Housekeeper Ling, please take down the account books of the mansion and the government books of the city."

"Little..., what is this, young master?"

"As the Ling family, you should do something for the family."

What Ling Xi said was calm, and it wasn't until Steward Ling brought the account books and government books... that he didn't understand why the original owner's father died in depression after he was assigned to seal the city.
