Dongzhou, Qingdi City.
Qingdi City is one of the largest cities in Dongzhou, and it is located at the junction of the Lishui and Taijiang Rivers, with intensive and developed trade through ships. With this unique geographical location, Qingdi City has gradually grown from a small village to a leading big city in Dongzhou.
Miao Feng, the lord of Qingdi City, is also a well-known powerful cultivator.
It is said that his cultivation has reached the Heavenly Venerable Realm, and it is only one step away from the Transcending Tribulation Realm.
He also has many powerful cultivators under his command.
Relying on his strong cultivation base and the background of Qingdi City, Miao Feng secured his position as the city lord and also deterred and intimidated all parties from easily offending Qingdi City.
As long as there are strong people sitting in every big city, this is already the subtle consensus of the entire Upper Domain of the cultivation world.
This is not out of respect for the strong, but a compromise that has to be made in order to survive.
In the eyes of powerful cultivators, mortals are just ants, and their life and death are insignificant, so there are often powerful cultivators who destroy a city at every turn. This is true for both sides of the cultivation path, regardless of righteous and evil.
For the righteous path, at least they have to come up with an excuse for destroying a whole city, so as not to tarnish their clan or sect’s reputation.
However, the devil path acts according to their own likes and dislikes.Diiscover new stories at novelhall.com
In many cases, they will even destroy the city just because they don’t like the name of the city.
In the face of a powerful cultivator, mortals without the ability to cultivate can only resign themselves to fate.
After all, they have no strength to resist, and no one can stand up for them.
The only thing they can do is to seek strong backing as much as possible in order to achieve stability.
Because of this, many cities with powerful cultivators have become the first choice for mortals to live in.
However, it is not so easy to live in those big cities.
Big cities mean heavy taxes.
Especially in a big city like Qingdi City with a population of one million, almost every household in the city has to spend two-thirds of their annual income to pay for taxes.
It’s good to be able to find a big city as a backer, but for the mortals who can’t even find a backer, how many of them will be slaughtered by random cultivators like cattle and sheep every time?
Isn’t there some particularly lucky mortals who have gained powerful strength through cultivation, and in turn protect their own group?
It is true that there are such people, but they are very few.
Many mortals, who started from humble beginnings, made great aspirations when they first embarked on the path of cultivation, wanting to protect their ethnic group or their beginnings with their own strength.
Indeed, many of them found opportunities, enough to defy the impossible, and finally achieve great achievements.
However, after reaching the top, most of these people would have forgotten the original intention of their cultivation, and instead, like other cultivators, they regard ordinary people as ants.
Because in the process of their growth, countless realities told them that in this world, the strong are respected.
As long as you are strong enough, you can do whatever you want.
As long as you are strong enough, you can disdain all living beings.
As long as you are strong enough, you can ask anything from anyone.
As long as you are strong enough, you can ignore justice in this world.
So their goal is to become stronger and stronger. In order to become stronger, they even dare to trample on the dignity of others and the life and death of all mortals.
And mortals, facing a powerful cultivator, the only thing they can do is to live and hope to survive.
Because they do not deserve to have dignity in front of the cultivator.
This situation has been going on for hundreds of thousands of years.
Maybe it will continue on like this, without any change.
