Xia Jingyan, who lived next door, naturally heard these sounds. Her pretty face turned bright red, and she tossed and turned, sleepless. She was furious.
“These men and women are relentless in their deeds, don’t they know what shame is?”
Xia Jingyan was infuriated.
She spent a whole night in meditation, calming the blood within her body.
Otherwise, she felt she could no longer control her emotions and would want to join them.
“It’s not Ji’s sister’s fault; it must be that despicable man. He shamelessly goes around the house shirtless all day, lacking any decency that a man should have.”
Xia Jingyan clenched her fists, placing all the blame on Zhou Sui. How could her sister have come to this if it weren’t for this despicable man?
Just thinking about Zhou Sui walking around the house with his bare, muscular arms and washboard abs, made her blush and her ears turned red.
She had seen men like this before and thought nothing of it.
But for some reason, after seeing Zhou Sui like this, she found it irresistibly appealing.
She struggled to control her feelings, even longing to throw herself into his arms.
Luckily, she had strong restraint. She just managed to suppress these feelings, or else she would have embarrassed herself in front of her sisters, losing face forever.
“Calm down, Xia Jingyan, it’s just a man, not worth a second thought.”
“You won’t die without a man. What you’re pursuing is longevity, not these carnal desires.”
“No thoughts of men in mind, the path to Cultivation is naturally divine.”
Xia Jingyan took a deep breath, slowly calming her restless heart.
Several days passed.
Although he had ascended to the Qi Cultivation fifth th Layer, Zhou Sui still had no desire to wander around, and instead, he chose to stay home and cultivate diligently.
After all, he was just a novice cultivator at the Qi Cultivation Stage, still at the bottom of the Cultivation World. If he were to venture out recklessly, he might end up dead without knowing how.
Boom—
At this moment, a huge tremor resonated through Misty Cloud City. Every cultivator residing in the city could sense this immense surge of spiritual energy.
Soon after, a large Flying Boat hovered over Misty Cloud City. Many cultivators descended from the Flying Boat and dispersed into the city.
However, these cultivators all carried injuries and emanated a frightening aura. They seemed like ruthless killers, and it was clear that they were not to be provoked.
“What’s happening?”
Seeing this, Zhou Sui instinctively felt uneasy. He began to gather information, eager to know what had happened.
He quickly learned the truth from his neighbor, Zhang Cheng.
“That is a Flying Boat from the Immortal Mist Sect. It’s said that they have successfully excavated a route to the Cloud Mist Mountain Range and killed several second-stage monsters that were guarding the Red Gold Mine.”
“Some of these cultivators are disciples of the Immortal Mist Sect, and some are members of cultivator families brought along by the sect.”
Zhang Cheng said gravely, sharing the news he had uncovered.
“Successfully excavated the Red Gold Mine vein? Isn’t this a good thing? From now on, Misty Cloud City should return to its peaceful state. Why are we so troubled?”
Zhou Sui furrowed his brows and asked.
“It’s not that simple.”
On hearing his query, Zhang Cheng sighed and explained, “Lu Hongran, the City Lord of Misty Cloud City, has decided to hand over the city to the Immortal Mist Sect. From now on, Misty Cloud City won’t be a Loose Cultivator City anymore, but a city under the Immortal Mist Sect.”
What?!
Zhou Sui’s face changed dramatically. He hadn’t expected such a drastic development. Lu Hongran, the City Lord of Misty Cloud City, was a cultivator in the later stages of the Foundation Establishment.
It was because of this advanced cultivator that Misty Cloud City has prospered for over a hundred years.
But now, he was giving up the city to the Immortal Mist Sect, tantamount to handing over his life’s work to them. It’s insane.
There must be some secretive deal involved.
Of course, he didn’t care why the city was being handed over. After all, it was none of his business.
What he was more concerned about was what big moves the Immortal Mist Sect would make after taking over Misty Cloud City.
This was what concerned him as a bottom-tier cultivator.
“When a new emperor ascends the throne, new officials are appointed. After the Immortal Mist Sect takes over Misty Cloud City, the rules will change completely.”
Zhang Cheng spoke somberly: “First, the houses we bought in Misty Cloud City will be voided. We will lose ownership of our houses. All cultivators entering Misty Cloud City will only be able to rent houses here and have to pay high rent each month. Otherwise, we’ll be expelled from the city.”
“How could this happen? We bought the houses in Misty Cloud City and have lifelong rights to them. Now the Immortal Mist Sect just wants to take away our houses with a single sentence?”
Zhou Sui clenched his fist.
Although he knew that changes would occur once the Immortal Mist Sect took over Misty Cloud City, he never imagined losing his house overnight. Everything was taken away.
“Ha, we’re weaker, they’re powerful. Even if they take away our houses, we can’t say anything. We have no power to resist.”
Zhang Cheng felt helpless, as the Immortal Mist Sect was too mighty. The rules were set by them, and other cultivators could only obey. They didn’t dare to resist.
“This…”
Hearing this, Zhou Sui felt a sinking feeling in his heart. The reason cultivators generally avoid buying houses is that too many uncertainties come with them.
If a powerful group collapses and another takes its place, the original contracts become null and void.
The present regime doesn’t honor the contracts of the past.
So, most cultivators choose to rent houses. This way, regardless of how the forces change, they won’t be hurt fundamentally and won’t lose everything.
Zhou Sui’s parents were lucky. They bought a house in Misty Cloud City at a low price, and the city remained stable for a hundred years without any changes in power.
But now things were different.
City Lord Lu Hongran stepped down, the Immortal Mist Sect took over, the rule changed.
And that meant the ownership of his house was voided and no longer recognized by the Immortal Mist Sect.
“What do we do now?”
Zhou Sui asked.
“There are only two ways now. The first is to obediently pay the rent and obtain the right to live in Misty Cloud City. The second is to leave Misty Cloud City and seek a living elsewhere.”
Zhang Cheng stated that there were currently only two options.
In reality, there was only one choice; after all, life might not be better, or could even be worse in other places. They might face even more ruthless exploitation.
Compared to that, their current situation in Misty Cloud City wasn’t so bad..
