I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 376 I Don't Recognize Him (46)

Although she was very surprised, Lianqu still played the game seriously.

The girl exuded an inhuman aura; seeing the other person was like seeing an iceberg, leaving one wondering what thoughts lay beneath her cold expression.

Even when playing the extremely thrilling game "Journey to the Abyss," she remained expressionless, silently experiencing the dream without uttering a single word.

Half an hour later, she put down her phone, nodded, and said, "I understand."

"You understand why we lost, right?"

"Hmm, this dream is so immoral and shameless! The person who created this dream exploits human greed and gambling instincts, combining these traits with the mechanisms of dreams. The person who created this dream is definitely a demonic cultivator, no doubt about it!"

"Huh? That's all you saw?"

"Otherwise what?" Lian Qu frowned slightly, asking with dissatisfaction, "Dreams are extremely important. They bear the heavy responsibility of educating all living beings and upholding justice in the world. How can we allow such messy things to pollute our senses and minds? Such dreams shouldn't exist! Playing with them will only lead people to lose their ambition!"

"...But it's fun."

"Dreams shouldn't be primarily about having fun; they should have educational value. You know what edutainment is, right? You have to teach first, then you can have fun. In short, this kind of dream is extremely immoral; your kind of morally sound dream is what deserves to be promoted."

Looking at the serious Lian Qu, Chairman Yu Shan felt that this investor was a bit too extreme.

Lian Qu, clearly still not satisfied, said with dissatisfaction, "Look at this dream! I was completely unarmed, yet others wanted to kill me. That's bullying the weak. I already said I was just here to look around, but they still wanted to kill me. That's heartless. I tried to find some clothes in a box, and they still wanted to kill me. That's killing the poor to enrich the rich. All sorts of evil deeds, it's truly despicable! And this dream is actually encouraging this kind of behavior, it's the most despicable of all!"

"But this is just a dream game."

"No, dreams can also reflect a person's character. The prevalence of such dreams indicates that people are now degenerating. We must find ways to correct people's thoughts and prevent them from continuing to degenerate."

Seeing Lian Qu get angry over such a trivial matter, Chairman Yu Shan felt that the other party's thinking was somewhat extreme and not like a normal person.

Those with high moral standards are often temple priests of a star deity possessing moral qualities, or are directly incarnations of that deity.

Considering the other party's generous offer of 600 million yuan and their selfless act, Chairman Yushan couldn't help but suspect that the other party was the incarnation of a certain star deity.

However, there are many star lords who possess moral qualities, and he is not sure which star lord the other party is in disguise.

But the thought that Yushan City had a Star Lord backing it up made the Yushan President breathe a sigh of relief, and then he asked, "Then, Miss Xing... what do you think we should do?"

"I will first try to persuade Chen Yu to withdraw decisively and stop polluting the world. Otherwise, he will be the culprit for the moral decay of the world."

"No way!"

"As for him! He has such a fun and immoral dream, he is the greatest demonic cultivator in the world! If such evil is not eliminated, the Great Qian world will never have peace!"

"Even doing something well can be wrong!"

"If the direction is wrong, the stronger the power, the worse it will be! Okay, stop trying to persuade me, I'm going to confront them."

Watching the 1.4-meter-tall Lian Qu leave, Chairman Yushan wanted to stop him, but dared not.

The assistant standing nearby cautiously looked at Chairman Yushan and asked, "Chairman, won't there be any problems?"

"She's an investor, so whatever she says goes."

Moreover, with the other party stepping in, Chairman Yushan became less flustered.

The other party has a high moral compass and is a Star Lord, so a mere 600 million wouldn't bother them. They can easily shift the blame later. Of course, they can't directly pin the blame on the Star Lord; they'll just take the blame for him, and they're sure he won't treat them unfairly.

Having grasped the key points through exceptional political wisdom, Chairman Yushan said that things should proceed as they should, and everyone took out their phones to play "Journey to the Abyss" together. After finishing the game, they continued working overtime.

At the restaurant, Chen Yu declined Xu Feng and Shen Lang's invitation to have another drink and prepared to go back to his room to rest.

To be honest, the food here must be delicious, and Xu Feng, Shen Lang, and a bunch of people disguised as "strangers" all wanted to come over and treat everyone to drinks, making the atmosphere very lively.

The problem is, however, that the ban is still in effect.

All the food was pixelated and filled with text, as was all the alcohol. Even when the food was inside his stomach, Chen Yu felt as if he hadn't eaten anything, but rather a bunch of words.

Don’t eat sour radish!
The dream received positive reviews, but also generated negative emotions. The dreamer even enjoyed delicacies from the upper realm. What should have been a joyous occasion turned into a nightmare due to a decree.

Fortunately, there was still food available in the room, so Chen Yu was able to pack some things to take back and eat.

As soon as Chen Yu entered the hotel lobby, he saw a person with the words "Star Lord Incarnation" on their head sitting on the sofa.

After glancing at the white mosaic, Chen Yu sighed that the Upper Realm was indeed the Upper Realm; the Star Lord incarnations were like they were mass-produced, and you could see a whole bunch of them on the roadside.

Just as Chen Yu was about to return to his room after bypassing the other person, he heard the pixelated figure say, "Are you Chen Yu?"

"It's me. Who are you?"

"Here's 600 million; you should withdraw from this competition."

At that moment, Chen Yu had the urge to punch the other person.

I painstakingly created this grand dream, only to end up spending a whopping 300 million yuan.

You come up here and demand double compensation without saying a word. What do you mean by that?
Do you think I, Chen Da Guan Guan, am broke?
Besides, doesn't your Star Lord dislike money? Does that mean you can just give away things you don't like? Give me your magic power if you dare!

Suppressing his surging emotions with his powerful Dao heart, Chen Yu gritted his teeth and said, "No need, I will not withdraw."

"You don't even care about money? Is there anything you really care about?"

The other person looked at Chen Yu in surprise, then suddenly clapped his hands and said, "So that's how it is, you're from Tianyuan."

"What does this have to do with the Tianyuan people? Stop demonizing them!"

"I'm sorry, it seems you have your reasons. You probably wanted to use this dream to promote Tianyuan. But I'm sorry, this kind of dream goes against my morals. I hope you can withdraw and stop having dreams in the future."

Slowly standing up, the other person assumed a fighting stance and said seriously, "I can tell you're a physical cultivator; your blood and qi are surging. It's hard to imagine you're just a high school student. So let's have a match. If you lose, please reconsider. But don't worry, I'll suppress my cultivation level to Qi Refining; I won't bully the weak. Now, let's begin. Use your full strength..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Yu's face turned bright red, and he punched the other man in the face.

The small white mosaic tile skipped across the water like a stone, bounced several times on the ground, and landed on the open ground outside, its fate unknown.

After putting away his fist, Chen Yu carried the takeout food back to his room, much to the surprise of the receptionist.

Hearing the door open, Meng Lingyi, who was floating in the air, looked up from her phone and asked Chen Yu, "Who did you just hit? The sound was so loud, everyone here could hear it."

"I don't recognize it," Chen Yu replied calmly, opening his lunchbox.
