"Sir, that A Madman is not to be trifled with." One of the men said.
"Even if he's not to be trifled with, can he be worse than us?" The man from the Luo Family coldly said: "In Xin Du, if a rogue cultivator offends our Luo Family, they must be destroyed. This place shouldn't have existed for a long time. Even if they report this to the city lord, it will be useless."
That's right!
The city lord had wanted to tear down this place for a long time, so if someone did, the city lord would be happy. How could he blame him?
In Brother Feng's house.
"The wine is not bad, it's strong enough." Xiatian slightly smiled.
"As long as you like it." Brother Feng said.
"I like it, of course I like it. As long as it's wine, I like it." Xiatian was a person who loved wine as much as his life. He had no resistance to good wine.
"Sir, you're here to participate in the Xin Du Grand Tournament, right?" Brother Feng drank a cup of wine.
"Yes, I heard that the Xin Du Grand Tournament is very lively, so I came to take a look." Xiatian said.
"That's right. The Xindu Grand Tournament is the most popular tournament. It's held once every ten years, and countless people come every time. But for ordinary people, it's enough to get a decent name. The people on the Silver List almost never change. At most, only one or two people go up each time, and these people are all recruited by the big families midway," Brother Feng said.
"Oh? Are there no powerful rogue cultivators? "Xiatian Asked.
"First of all, it's very difficult for a rogue cultivator to become a master because without the support of a big family or power, cultivation itself is very difficult. Second, even if you have the strength, it's easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hard to defend against a stab in the dark. If you destroy their interests, will they let you go?" Brother Feng reminded. He could see that Xiatian was not an ordinary person.
So he was reminding Lin Feng to either find a big family to rely on.
Or try to keep a low profile and not compete for that name.
Otherwise, he would only lose his life.
"Do you mean that as long as a Rogue Cultivator has the strength to enter the Silver List, he will die if he does not join a large family?" Asked Xiatian.
"That's right. Although the City Lord Manor pays special attention to this matter every year and conducts very strict inspections, there's no such thing as a secret. The benefits brought by the Silver List are too great. That's the lifeblood of the entire Xindu. Everyone only recognizes the Silver List, so as long as one enters the Silver List, one's family will be able to prosper for ten years. Once one enters the top three of the Silver List, one's family will instantly rise and become number one on the Silver List. Then, this family will be able to soar into the sky within ten years." Brother Feng patiently told Xiatian everything he knew.
He was obviously repaying Xiatian's kindness.
Xiatian had cured his mother, so he had to remind Xiatian of these things.
Otherwise, Xiatian would lose his life here.
"Won't the City Lord Manor do anything?" Asked Xiatian.
"Of course they will. The City Lord hopes that there will be more powerful people to take his place in the competition, so he naturally hopes that there won't be any mistakes. But no matter what the City Lord Manor does, it's impossible to ensure that nothing will happen. Those big families will use all means to destroy those who block their way. If you are a threat, the people who want to kill you will be all the big families in Xindu." Brother Feng said.
"It seems that this competition in Xindu is far more complicated than I thought." Xiatian said.
"Of course. I once wanted to take the Mercenary Title, but I gave up later." Brother Feng shook his head and drank a big mouthful of wine.
"Why?" Asked Xiatian.
"It's very simple. If I took it, I would be blocking the way of others, and I wouldn't be able to protect the poor area. I have more than one person behind me. Although I'm not afraid, I have to consider the 300,000 people in the poor area." Brother Feng said.
"By the way, I wanted to ask before. With such a big city, the City Lord Manor couldn't have not thought of developing this place, right? But why is it still like this?" Asked Xiatian, puzzled.
Normally, Xindu was the center of the entire Xin City area. This place should be very prosperous.
But there was actually such a backward place here.
"The City Lord came here personally, but his intention was to expel all the people in Xindu and then turn this place into a commercial street. If all 30 people are expelled, where will they live? How will they live? Even if they give money, what can they do? Go to other cities to live? But other cities also have population restrictions. In the end, these people will become wild cultivators, or can only be bullied in free cities. "Brother Feng gritted his teeth and said.
This was the main reason why he protected the poor area.
He didn't want these 300,000 people to be homeless.
"Can't you plan part of the area for living and the other part for a commercial street?" Asked Xiatian.
"That's impossible. The investment amount is huge. If we stay, the other big families won't be willing to invest. They want the whole place, not us." Brother Feng said.
Hearing this, Xiatian understood.
Although the City Lord wanted to develop this place.
But the City Lord couldn't take out so much money, so he could only let the big families invest. But the big families also gave conditions. If the 300,000 people in the poor area didn't leave the city, they wouldn't invest.
Normally.
Such a big city like Xindu shouldn't be short of money.
But in fact, a city like Xindu was the most short of money.
Because they raised a lot of troops, these troops cost a lot of resources. The taxes collected by Xindu every year were almost all used on those troops.
Xindu was close to the desert, so it fought all year round.
If there were no strong troops guarding it, it would definitely not be so peaceful.
In the Secret Desolate Ten Continents, Xindu ranked second to last in poverty.
The poor area was very big.
If such a big place was developed, it would cost a lot of money, and the final settlement of 300,000 people would be very expensive.
No matter how one looked at it, this would be a huge number.
"Have you ever thought about developing this place yourself?" Asked Xiatian.
"It's too difficult. The reason why the people in the poor area are so poor is because the big families make things difficult for us. The work we do is the hardest and most tiring, but the money we earn is the least. It's good enough that we can cultivate. There's no chance to develop at all." Brother Feng shook his head helplessly.
"Don't be discouraged. Maybe there will be a chance. After all, there's always a way." Xiatian said.
Ta Ta Ta!
Hurried footsteps were heard.
"Not good, Brother Feng. There's a fire outside. There's fire everywhere."
"What?" Brother Feng stood up and was about to run outside.
