The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation
Chapter 197 Old Deng's Little Scheme
Hearing the sound behind him, Lu Yuange was startled. She turned around and saw Lu Changfeng before letting out a sigh of relief.
"Oh, it's you, you brat!"
Then he pointed to the large construction site not far away.
"Can't you see what I'm doing? Look, we're building a house!"
Lu Changfeng was immediately filled with confusion.
"No, of course I know you're building a house. My question is, don't you like driving? Why are you suddenly building a house here?"
Logically, since they already have houses, there's no need for them to build another one.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuange smiled.
"Hehehe, it's not that you seem to really like renting houses. It just so happens that the bus station earns so many spirit stones every day that we can't possibly use them all."
"So, I bought this large piece of land to the left of the west gate from the sect."
"We'll build a whole street there, and then we'll make the beach look beautiful!"
"You can come over occasionally, relax by the sea, enjoy the breeze, and collect rent—wouldn't that be wonderful!"
He then showed the blueprints he had designed.
After seeing it, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but sigh; the area that Lao Deng bought was indeed quite large.
The area near the coast features a large beach, shaded by trees in the middle, with residential areas and commercial streets behind it.
In short, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call this a perfect seaside town.
Almost instantly, an idea suddenly popped into Lu Changfeng's mind.
Wow, this is huge! I'm a local now!
Lu Changfeng was deeply moved. He hadn't expected that Lao Deng could be so thoughtful at times!
He had always been aware of his obsession with becoming a landlord, and he had also noticed how he was enjoying the beautiful scenery, which led to the scene we see now.
However, before Lu Changfeng could even say thank you, Lu Yuange looked around and, making sure no one was nearby, began to explain quietly.
"You brat, think about it. There will definitely be more and more people in the sect in the future. When you want to rest, our beach will be a perfect place, won't it?"
"Then all sorts of beautiful women will come pouring in. We can just lie down on that beach, wow, what a feast for the eyes!"
He then gave a lewd laugh.
Lu Changfeng immediately rubbed his forehead.
"Old Deng, give me back the gratitude I gave you!"
I was quite touched at first, but I never expected that Old Deng did all this just to see beautiful women!
Although the thought of the beach full of all sorts of perks made him tempted, he realized that all that emotion he felt earlier was for nothing.
However, upon hearing Lu Changfeng's words, Old Deng looked completely bewildered.
"What's so touching!"
Got it!
Destroy it already!
"Alright, you can continue. I'm going back now!"
Regardless of whether Old Deng really built this place just for beautiful women, just treat it as your own.
As for the children in the family, can they even support themselves?
The thought of owning a seaside town and collecting rent filled Lu Changfeng with excitement; he couldn't wait for the town to be completed immediately.
Then he started collecting rent like crazy.
Cool!
That was so awesome!
But to his surprise, as soon as he landed in Tianxing City, he found a large number of people on the streets engaged in a heated discussion.
"How many times has this happened this month? Why are there fights in the streets every single day?!"
"Hey, isn't this because those senior disciples are too arrogant and bullying? They're using their connections within the inner sect to target the new disciples at every turn!"
"Exactly! Even though the new disciples are already at the late stage of Qi Refining, some of them are just using their connections to give themselves the most lucrative tasks!"
"It doesn't matter where you are, but whether you can implement reforms depends on when things get out of hand!"
"Indeed, but didn't the sect handle the Spirit Testing Conference quite well before? They directly allowed the bus station to open in most cities within the sect's territory! It should be able to be resolved now too!"
…………
Listening to their conversation, Lu Changfeng suddenly realized what was going on.
"Oh, so it was a conflict between the new and old disciples!"
However, he had anticipated this kind of thing, since new disciples had been targeted in the past as well, only the number of new disciples joining each year was smaller in the past.
After a few years, the environment for taking on tasks will improve significantly, but this will also make those who come later think that it's all about connections.
So this is a cycle.
However, with the great changes in the world and the emergence of so many new disciples in the new era, what was originally an insignificant little matter gradually escalated into a major incident.
Just as he was about to return to his office, several voices arguing suddenly came from afar.
"Damn it, it's him! Even though my cultivation is higher and I'm more suited for the mission, this guy still gave it to someone he's close to!"
"Beat him up again!"
The veteran disciples remained calm in the face of the dozen or so new disciples before them.
"Heh, go ahead and beat me up, let's see if you have the guts!"
Almost instantly, just as the two sides were about to clash, the city guard captain suddenly descended from the sky and landed between the two groups.
"What are you doing? Fighting in the street. If you retreat now, we'll let bygones be bygones; otherwise, the Enforcement Hall will deal with you!"
Despite the city guards' warnings, the new disciple did not retreat; instead, his anger flared.
"Heh, you only show off in front of us new disciples. If you're so great, why don't you go and manage those who pull strings?"
"They're just taking advantage of the fact that we newcomers have no connections and are easy to bully."
"But you bunch of good-for-nothings are only doing this because our leader as new disciples isn't here. If they were, you'd be nothing!"
"Do you dare to bare your teeth at the prodigies on the leaderboard?"
The city guard captain's face immediately turned ashen with anger, but he still managed to suppress his rage.
At this point, the senior disciple who was blocked was also unhappy.
"Guards, why don't you arrest him? They've been the ones causing trouble from beginning to end. What, are the rules of the Heavenly Star Sect just bullshit?"
"Or do you think we senior disciples are easy to bully?"
hiss!
Upon seeing this, Lu Changfeng gasped.
Good grief, he's gone from being stubborn to having two blocked ends.
To be honest, both sides have a point, but it remains to be seen how the captain of the guard will handle this situation!
"Fine, fine, so you think I'm easy to bully, huh!"
"Arrest everyone and send them to the mines!"
At the captain's command, the guards who had been standing behind him immediately sprang into action.
However, the expected immediate victory did not occur. While the new disciples initially panicked due to their lack of combat experience, they quickly organized themselves and engaged the city guards in battle.
The senior disciple, not to be outdone, was outraged that he, despite being in the right, was being arrested. He too rose up in protest.
However, the whole scene looked like new disciples and old disciples working together to fight the city guards.
Fortunately, an outer sect elder in the late Foundation Establishment stage quickly separated the two sides. After the crowd dispersed, Lu Changfeng returned to his office.
However, he knew this matter was not over yet.
