Even before the Savage Fang Mountains had been overrun by the Vengeful Ghosts of the Soul-Smelting Burial Ground, several Qin counties had turned into hotbeds of refugee gathering. Wuyuan was no exception, its streets flooded with over one million refugees who all needed shelter, healthcare, and opportunities.
As the Administrator of Wuyuan, Xiao Qing felt responsible for those people, setting up several soup kitchens and requesting several Saints and Perfected Warrior tier healers from the capital to come assist her in providing treatment for the refugees.
Eighteen showed up, taking over the hospitals of key Wuyuan cities to shoulder the healthcare burden. Xiao Qing also hardened her heart and ordered the city officials to cooperate with the army to split the refugees into manageable groups—taking care to register names, faces and origins and not split families.
