Crackdown Plan Launched Again
In Azure Cloud City, many Rogue Cultivators with anxiety.
"Life is getting harder and harder," Chen Lin said worriedly to his friend Jiang Shan. "I haven't received a single assignment for a month. They've snatched all the ones away. If it weren't for some money I saved up before, I don't know what I would do."
He was originally a member of the Myriad Spirits Sect, and he came to Azure Cloud City to cause trouble on orders from the sect.
However, after arriving in Azure Cloud City, he joined the ranks of laborers and lived a very comfortable life in Azure Cloud City.
However, he is now facing difficulties.
After all the missions in Azure Cloud City were monopolized by other organizations, he couldn't get a single one.
The feeling of impending poverty was unacceptable to him.
"The Hundred Battles Hall has already sent me an invitation, asking us to join Hundred Battles Hall," Jiang Shan said with a wry smile.
Jiang Shan is also a Rogue Cultivator, but his current cultivation level is lower than Chen Lin's, only at the Golden Core Realm.
They became familiar with each other after frequently taking on missions from the Azure Cloud Sect.
Jiang Shan was also troubled when the topic of the gangs and organizations in Azure Cloud City came up.
"If all else fails, we can just join the Hundred Battles Hall," Jiang Shan added.
Given the current situation, they have no way out if they don't join those organizations.
Chen Lin shook his head firmly. "I will not go, and I will never join their Hundred Battles Hall under any circumstances!"
I used to earn a thousand Spirit Stone for each quest I took on.
If I join the Hundred Battles Hall, they only give me five hundred Spirit Stone; the rest I have to give to them.
"I would absolutely not agree to putting in the same effort and receiving half the income."
He could accept the reduced income, but as someone who had once come from a major sect, he couldn't accept joining those kinds of gangs or organizations.
Even though he was just an insignificant figure in a major sect, he still had a certain amount of pride.
"But if we don't join those gangs, we won't even be able to get any missions!" Jiang Shan sighed. "Their people have monopolized all the missions in Azure Cloud City, leaving no chance for anyone else to take on missions."
Chen Lin frowned, unable to come up with a good solution for the time being.
Although he was only at the Nascent Soul Realm, all the leaders of those gangs and organizations were at the Primordial Spirit Realm.
These Primordial Spirit Realm are not people he, a mere Nascent Soul Realm, can afford to provoke.
Although Martial Prohibition in Azure Cloud City, and these Primordial Spirit Realm cannot directly deal with him, these organizations have plenty of ways to make him extremely uncomfortable while adhering to Azure Cloud City's regulations.
For example, right now, he can't get a single job, can he?
Finally, Chen Lin said helplessly, "Isn't Azure Cloud City going to do anything about this?"
Their only hope now is that Azure Cloud City, or even the Azure Cloud Sect, will step in and stop this situation.
"Good news!" A Rogue Cultivator the Golden Core Realm rushed in and said to Chen Lin, "I just received news that the City Lord's Manor has begun to intervene in the arrangements of those gangs and organizations."
Chen Lin immediately perked up and laughed, "I knew the City Lord's Manor couldn't possibly ignore this!"
Jiang Shan hurriedly stood up and asked, "What did the City Lord's Manor say?"
"Some of these organizations are said to be preparing to leave Azure Cloud City to establish their own sects. Others are accepting full supervision from the City Lord's Manor," the Golden Core Realm cultivator reporting mysteriously said. "I also heard that some organizations are preparing to challenge Zhang Yang and preserve their organizations; I wonder if that's true?"
Jiang Shan slapped his thigh. "What kind of good news is this? Some of the gangs and organizations have still stayed!"
"Especially those challenging Zhang Yang community organizations, if they win the challenge, won't they become even more outrageous?"
"It's good news!" Chen Lin said with a strange expression.
"Huh?" Jiang Shan looked at Chen Lin in astonishment.
Chen Lin stated firmly, "They can't win!"
He came from the Myriad Spirits Sect. Although he was an insignificant disciple of the Myriad Spirits Sect before, he was able to access information that true Rogue Cultivator could not.
For example, he knew that the Myriad Spirits Sect had a group of prodigies who went to the Prodigy Battlefield and never returned.
Even their prodigy Zhou Lin almost ended up on the Prodigy Battlefield.
These things were supposedly done by Zhang Yang.
Chen Lin was even clearer that, even though they were all disciples of the Myriad Spirits Sect, he was worlds apart from Zhou Lin and the others.
If even he, a disciple who also came from a major sect, was like this, what about a group of Rogue Cultivator?
Moreover, he knew that Zhang Yang possessed a multitude of Spirit Artifact. Someone who could wield Spirit Artifact at the Golden Core Realm —what were a group of rogue Rogue Cultivator at the Primordial Spirit Realm thinking to challenge such a person?
Jiang Shan looked at Chen Lin in astonishment and asked, "Brother Chen, why are you so certain?"
Although his cultivation level was one realm lower, their cultivation levels were roughly the same when they first met.
Chen Lin said with a smile, "I just feel that the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect are not as simple as they seem."
He didn't reveal the real details; after all, he was still an undercover agent!
"Alright, we don't need to worry about anything else. Let's just wait and see," Chen Lin said finally.
News of the arrangements made by the Azure Cloud City community organizations spread like wildfire throughout Azure Cloud City.
Like Chen Lin and others, the Rogue Cultivator who had not joined any organizations felt that now that the City Lord's Manor had intervened, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
The other Rogue Cultivator who had already joined the organization were exceptionally excited.
"Our Hundred Battles Hall Master is about to challenge the Azure Cloud Sect. If he succeeds, our Hundred Battles Hall will truly be established. Those of you who wish to join our Hundred Battles Hall had better agree now, or you will miss this opportunity."
"This is your last chance! Fellow Mutual Aid Society who wish to join, hurry up! We 'Mutual Aid Society soon. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so I urge you all to seize it."
Some community organizations are busy evacuating Azure Cloud City.
Meanwhile, some community organizations are busy recruiting.
The entire Azure Cloud City suddenly became somewhat chaotic and disorderly.
Meanwhile, in the Black Tortoise District, Zhang Changshan, Wang Baole, Liang Yi, and others were gathering their respective divisions and issuing orders among the various camps.
More than 100,000 Azure Cloud Sect disciples, all with guns in hand and magazines loaded.
A somber atmosphere permeated the entire Black Tortoise District.
At the City Lord's Manor in Azure Cloud City, Jiang Zhiqiu was also issuing orders, and the City Guard were also ready.
At the Azure Cloud Sect, Zhang Yang found Azure Cloud Master and said, "Master, once the challenges begin, close off the entire arena."
Those Primordial Spirit Realm who dare to challenge us—we must not let a single one of them escape!
Also, I'll need to trouble Master to broadcast it to them later.
Zhang Yang looked at Azure Cloud City and felt that this crackdown should bring ten years of peace to the Azure Cloud City.
Azure Cloud Master nodded.
He was also looking towards Azure Cloud City, feeling a pang of regret.
This includes dozens of the Primordial Spirit Realm, hundreds of the Golden Core Realm and Nascent Soul Realm, and tens of thousands of the Foundation Establishment Realm!
Wouldn't it be wonderful if these people were obedient?
