Chapter 29 Cloud City



Yuncheng is a small city in Yunnan Province, located near Kunming.

However, this is also the most important city in China.

Yunnan Province is located in an area with many endless mountain ranges, rich in spiritual energy, where many ancient martial arts practitioners established their own sects.

In Cloud City, which is close to the mountains, it became a city jointly governed by ancient martial artists and the government.

Ancient martial artists are not detached from worldly affairs either; they also enjoy fine wine and beautiful women.

The wealthy individuals, each with their own ulterior motives, need the help of martial arts practitioners.

Therefore, the two sides quickly reached an agreement. Yuncheng is home to many wealthy individuals, making it impossible for ordinary people to start a business there.

The Xia family also has one.

Although the Xia family's business here is just a hotel, the Xia family has also obtained many resources through this hotel.

There are cultivation techniques passed down within the Xia family.

Xia Muge's father practiced this technique.

However, the original Xia Muge did not cultivate, probably because he did not have the aptitude.

However, this is no longer an era where martial arts reign supreme, so it doesn't matter if you don't cultivate martial arts; you can just find a bodyguard who is a master of ancient martial arts.

However, the Xia family did not hire any martial arts practitioners as bodyguards.

The reason is simple: martial arts practitioners are inherently arrogant, so hiring a bodyguard is like hiring a lord.

Whether these bodyguards will take action or save your life in a critical moment depends on how much money you pay them. Large families can afford to support them, but they may also be subject to extortion.

Smaller families could be dragged down.

Some families even hire martial arts practitioners as bodyguards, and some of them even give their wives and daughters away to others for their amusement.

Why pay someone to come over?

Xia Muge brought Lin Xue to his family's hotel. There was no presidential suite here, and the most expensive room cost 300 yuan a night.

The two were in the same room.

Xia Muge was not a saint, but at this moment he had no intention of oppressing others.

He was teaching Lin Xue about the rules of survival in Yuncheng.

"In this city, personal relationships outweigh the law. The police will only deal with petty theft at most; they won't get involved in violent incidents."

He said this to Lin Xue.

The Xia family's hotel in Yuncheng was opened after great difficulty.

Initially, the Xia family opened a restaurant here, but they ended up being eaten and drunk for free.

It's one thing to eat and drink for free, since the Xia family doesn't expect to make money anyway.

However, these martial arts practitioners also like to fight inside restaurants.

The Xia Family Restaurant was destroyed three times.

Four service staff members were maimed.

The losses amounted to two million, and the Xia family couldn't even claim compensation. They could only treat the plague god well and send him away.

So, the Xia family restaurant closed down and was converted into a fried chicken shop.

The Xia family was well aware that ancient martial artists did not like high-calorie foods.

I thought the fried chicken shop would be fine, but I didn't expect that some girls like to eat fried chicken. As a result, the girls attracted men, and the men got jealous of each other, and I ended up being caught in the crossfire.

Therefore, the Xia family has now converted their business into running a hotel.

Even though few people stay at the hotel, there are fewer worries.

Xia Muge paused for a moment, then said, "Without laws, violence and power become the order of this city. Therefore, before absolute violence is available, do not flaunt your wealth or your beauty."

Xia Muge looked at Lin Xue and said, "You are my secretary. Stay by my side during this time and don't act alone. Otherwise, if something happens to you, I won't be able to take care of you in time."

His feelings for Lin Xue are now complicated.

Lin Xue was, after all, a woman he had been with.

Even though they weren't lovers, he didn't want Lin Xue to be possessed or defiled by someone else.

This is due to the man's possessiveness.

Lin Xue nodded: "I understand."

Only now has she realized that there are places in this world that are beyond the reach of the law.

No, to be precise, there are too many areas that are not covered by law, not just the ancient martial arts world.

In a sense, Xia Muge is also not bound by the law.

Just like now.

Lin Xue gritted her teeth and suddenly said boldly, "President Xia, you're so concerned about me, does that mean you still have feelings for me?"

Xia Muge was slightly taken aback, then said, "Yes, you are a beauty."

Shyness? Not here.

But coercion is also nonexistent.

Xia Muge liked beautiful women, but he also enjoyed the feeling of plundering.

However, this does not mean that his humanity has been dominated by bestiality.

His life as an orphan taught him that, at any time, those who are dominated by bestiality and desire are pathetic.

Therefore, during this simulated period, he did not squander his money or indulge in womanizing.

That would be great, but Xia Muge didn't want to be a pure villain.

In other words, simulations always come to an end, and systems will eventually disappear.

He treats simulations like dreams, while reality is his life.

Therefore, he spends most of his time at the company every day learning business skills.

With a company worth hundreds of billions providing him with a platform and a springboard for learning, Xia Muge had nothing to be dissatisfied about.

However, Xia Muge would not let go of any opportunity to plunder beautiful women.

Lin Xue listened to Xia Muge's answer but didn't know how to respond.

She and Xia Muge had already had a relationship.

However, if we let her continue to take the initiative...

While Lin Xue was struggling with her thoughts, Xia Muge saw through her mind using the basic psychology he had acquired at the beginning.

He was speechless.

Lin Xue may be suffering from a mild form of Stockholm syndrome.

She fell in love with Xia Muge.
