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

Chapter 546 was given incorrectly (16)

Although he really wanted to kill Cao Zhen right now, Chen Yu still said, "Do you want to hear what you're saying? How are demonic cultivators and future star lords connected?"

"So you are guilty of heinous crimes! You actually corrupted a Star Lord into a demonic cultivator, and you still say you have no reason to die!" Cao Zhen said coldly.

"……as long as you are happy."

After submitting "My Dream" as evidence, Cao Zhen finally calmed down and smiled: "Seniors, this is the work that the other party plagiarized from our 'Forest Keeper,' 'My Dream.' The module 'Mortal's Path' is a module that needs to be completed at the beginning of the dream. Only by completing this module can one enjoy the full content of the dream. I think this is the setting that best demonstrates Chen Yu's ideas."

Looking at Cao Zhen with confusion, Chen Yu said to Dao Lingyun, "Junior Sister, there's such a setting? Junior Sister? Dao Lingyun? What's wrong with you?"

From the moment Chen Yu took over, Dao Lingyun looked at him with surprise.

Upon seeing the balance scale stabilize at 4.5:5.5, she was even more flustered, her heart pounding uncontrollably.

How could he snatch the crucial point from her mother's hands? Did my senior brother have this planned all along?

After being called twice, Dao Lingyun finally reacted, looking at Chen Yu with eyes brimming with tears, and softly said, "Hmm..."

Why are you suddenly speaking so softly?

"It's nothing, I just suddenly think my senior brother is really handsome."

"Oh, thanks."

Seeing that even her earlobes had turned red, Chen Yu felt that Dao Lingyun was acting a little strange.

Fortunately, Teacher Zhao was still normal and came over to explain: "Indeed, some star lords believe that dreams should be moderate and peaceful, making people happy. So if you force tormenting content in dreams, it will displease them. Cao Zhen is probably using this to attack them."

"Isn't this just regulation? There's too much of it."

As they were talking, "My Dream" had been submitted, and all four people present received a copy of their dream as evidence. Then the court adjourned and began to play.

During the break, Dao Lingyun sipped water, glancing at Chen Yu every now and then with admiration in her eyes.

Chen Yu looked at Cao Zhen, wondering whether he should take this opportunity to kill him.

However, considering that the other party has been providing him with favorable evidence, he felt that it was okay to let this guy keep running around a bit longer, and then kill him after it was all over.

Judging from the current situation, his dream is being publicized by the other party, which is a good thing for him, as it can extend his life by a few more seconds.

After rejecting Dao Lingyun's mother's suggestion of reconciliation outside the court, Cao Zhen walked to Ma Yueru's side and quietly invited the Hidden Star Lord over.

After confirming that no one else could hear him, he asked Ma Yueru, "How is the preparation for 'Little Dreams' going?"

"As per your instructions, Minister, preparations are complete. Major livestreamers have already begun their promotional activities, and the relevant content is ready."

"Then let's go for it now. Something's not right; Chen Yu's preparations are more thorough than we thought."

"Yes, Minister!"

"At this point, we need to seize the initiative. Let's double-check, Chen Yu hasn't released 'My Dream' ahead of schedule, has he?"

“We applied for evidence preservation, but they can’t access it.”

"That's good. I'll say it again, hurry up. If Xingjun's side isn't up to par, we must gather factual evidence."

“I understand, Minister.”

Taking out the box, Cao Zhen skipped the small needles in the first layer and started using the large needle in the middle.

After the injection, he groaned. The side effects of the drug caused his muscles to congest with blood, and the blood vessels in his eyes looked like tiny threadworms crawling all over his eyeballs. A few minutes later, his tense back finally relaxed, and the violent aura around him gradually calmed down.

Ma Yueru had just given the order to launch "Little Dreamland" when she saw Cao Zhen's appearance and immediately asked with concern, "Minister Cao, are you alright?"

"It's nothing, just a side effect of focusing solely on cultivation techniques. I cultivate both Buddhism and Taoism, and my strength and cultivation are formidable, but my weakness is that my emotions are easily unstable, so I have to get acupuncture from time to time. Don't worry, I'm fine."

"Yes, please be careful, Minister."

The order to launch "Little Dreamland" was issued, the propaganda machine of the Disaster Response Department was activated, and the anchors on Thunder Network began to follow up.

In order to seize the market, the first batch of "Little Dreamland" forcibly defined itself as a small dreamland, set the price at the lowest of eighteen yuan, and then began a crazy marketing campaign.

A large number of marketing terms began to appear, and copywriting and promotional materials emerged in droves, constantly showcasing the unique features of this dream world.

This is a world made of blocks, yet it's also a world of unparalleled freedom. From the sky to the ocean, everything here can be created by you!

As the sun rises, your adventure begins. Do you have the courage to venture into the perilous lower realm, explore the endless upper realm, and acquire abundant resources to build your own city?

This is your world, you call the shots?

"Little Dreams" is a dream created with all the effort of the Disaster Response Department, and it is also a dream they prepared for dealing with future disasters.

Unlike other ordinary dreams, this dream world brought together all the dream architects they could find and incorporated the essence of "My Dream" into it.

Its excellent quality allowed it to quickly open up the market, and the sales of Dreamland products increased rapidly, giving Cao Zhen hope of turning the tide.

Once this dream has spread, subsequent versions can be developed into expansion packs, the modules can be charged for, and this dream can be used as a tool to avert disasters.

The current low fees are merely preparation for higher fees later; every concession by capital means that it has ulterior motives.

A group of people waited quietly in the courtroom for a full six hours before the two inspectors and two temple keeper left the dream world, seemingly still wanting more.

"Chen Yu, you did a great job!" The Inspector General of Changsheng Prefecture looked at Chen Yu in surprise as soon as he woke up. "You really did a great job!"

“Yes,” the temple keeper of Raibu Shrine nodded in agreement. “Luckily I set a timer, otherwise it would have been difficult to come out. It’s been a long time since I’ve had such a wonderful dream. I’m going to enjoy it tonight.”

The monk hesitated for a long time, then finally gave Cao Zhen a wry smile and said, "Brilliant, truly brilliant. This old monk hasn't played Dreamland in a long time, and now I actually have an urge to play it with my little disciples."

The inspector general of Wangsheng Prefecture's face trembled for a long time before turning his face away and saying in a low voice, "Not bad."

Cao Zhen looked at everyone in astonishment, then asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you all? Didn't you experience the beginning of 'The Path of Mortals'? If you had, you would have known Chen Yu's despicable intentions, right?"

The four looked at each other, then said in a puzzled tone, "We tried it, and it felt great!"

"It was a bit difficult at first, but it got much more comfortable afterward."

"Yes, it was a bit difficult at first, but the feeling of hope amidst the hardship, and finally turning things around little by little, was just wonderful."

"Moreover, the Tianyuan inside is also quite good, almost exactly the same as the Tianyuan I know."

"Huh?" Cao Zhen was confused.

"Huh?" Chen Yu was also confused.

They looked at each other, and surprisingly, they had the same thought in their minds.

Could they have given me the wrong thing?
