Chapter 204: Chapter 123: Finalization of Wind Riding Technique, Closure of Dao Debate Platform (Seeking Monthly Votes)_4

Whether it was cultivation, pill refinement, or practicing techniques, everything was carried out in an orderly manner.
Time quickly passed, and two months went by in a blink of an eye.
Luo Chen had respectively received a dividends of one thousand seven hundred and one thousand eight hundred elixirs, plus eight bottles of Dusting Pills and two boxes of Calming Incense.
However, the business of the two small restaurants was deteriorating day by day.
Over the two months, they had earned just under a thousand Spirit Stones.
It was quite pitiful that the famous name of Honey Snow Ice City, which Feng Xia had only recently established, was about to fade away.
However, Luo Chen had already anticipated this.
In the midst of chaos, cultivators no longer indulged in luxuries.
They would rather spend their Spirit Stones on resources for cultivation, or even magic tools and talismans.
Even the few Spirit Stones that usually weren’t considered significant had become exceptionally valuable.
Luo Chen had been waiting for the chaos in The Great River District to end, yet it had gotten increasingly rampant instead.
The chaos in the Outer City had reached the point where even daytime was not safe.
A few days ago, in the southeast district, over twenty houses were burnt down, with flames lighting up the entire night sky.
Arson!
Such a crime would normally be punishable by imprisonment, or even execution in the past.
But this time, apart from sending people to put out the fire, the Enforcement Team did nothing.
The Inner City was not as safe as imagined either.
Especially the northern district where Luo Chen and others were.
Qin Liangchen personally caught a thief.
The thief planned to take advantage of the daytime when no one was home to steal things.
However, wealthy cultivators mostly had storage bags, where they kept all their belongings.
The poor cultivators couldn’t possibly have any possessions. With a few magic tools and a robe, they were barely getting by.
The thief was unlucky, having encountered Qin Liangchen who was cultivating in silence at home. He was caught red-handed and was left dizzy from the beating.
Later, he was turned over to the Enforcement Team. They claimed they would send him to the Red Pillar for reform.
As for the actual situation, who really knows?
Only now did Luo Chen realise how correct his judgement had been!
Boss Liu’s statement that “it won’t be too long” was perceived based on the time standards of a Foundation Establishment Golden Core Cultivator.
For them, Qi Refinement Cultivators, three months of chaos was unbearable.
If this continues, The Great River District would become unsuitable for living and cultivation.
Rogue cultivators would be thinking of escaping.
Even the safe Taishan District, or the cold yet opportunity-filled Xuelian District, or even the barren Liuguang District, all of these would be better than the chaotic and dangerous Great River District.
Recently, the prices of elixirs and magic tools in the city had risen to different extents.
He had purchased a large number of Dusting Pills in advance, which had turned out to be quite a bargain.
“The Dao Debate Platform has closed!”
“What?”
Luo Chen, who had rarely been home, heard this news from Feng Xia.
Feng Xia worriedly said, “It is said that the Golden Core Ascendant Master is going into closed-door cultivation to gather the main vein of Spirit Qi from Mount Luo Feng for cultivation. So, it will be temporarily closed for the next half-year.”
“Is this some kind of joke?”
Luo Chen was incredibly surprised.
The grand opening of the Dao Debate Platform and the immense resources invested by Yu Ding Sword Sect were evident.
Now, they are closing it just like that. What does this mean?
Just to give an explanation to Ailao Mountain, is it worth going through all this trouble?
Could it be that there was some hidden inside information that Luo Chen was unaware of?
Luo Chen was utterly perplexed.
The gap in realm, the shortage of connections, and the shallow knowledge had all limited his ability to guess the truth using his clever brain.
All he knew was that the closure of the Dao Debate Platform would have enormous impacts.
Not to mention others, his two small restaurants were mainly serving the thousands of spectators of the Dao Debate Platform every day.
Now that the Dao Debate Platform was closed, which cultivators would have the leisure to go towards Mount Luo Feng?
The commercial area near the entrance of Mount Luo Feng at White Stone Plaza would probably decline very soon.
Seeing the worried Feng Xia, Luo Chen knew what she was concerned about.
All he could do was comfort her, “We have already paid the rent for one year, so we must continue to operate as usual. Moreover, during these months, we should have cultivated some wealthy regular customers. To ensure the most basic income should still be feasible.”
Feasible of course, but doubtless they won’t earn much Spirit Stones anymore.
For this, Feng Xia was helpless.
Luo Chen too felt that the word of a high-order cultivator could potentially bring about a huge change in the fate of a lower-order cultivator.
Originally, Feng Xia, Yuan Xiaoyue, and other rogue cultivators at White Stone Plaza could earn a considerable amount of Spirit Stones through the Dao Debate Platform.
They were leading a pretty comfortable life.
But now, I’m afraid they will be back at square one.
Besides, the impacts might not just be limited to this.
Luo Chen’s gaze fell upon Duan Feng, who was silently sitting in the corner.
“Xiao Duan, what are you planning to do in the future?”
