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

Chapter 657 is completely absent (16)

The changes among the workers in Sangmu City were extremely subtle, and with their moral character corrupted, everything became obscure and difficult to detect.

Furthermore, demonic cultivators like Boss Liang began operating in the shadows, and the Hidden Star Lord kept concealing things for profit, making the situation in Changsheng Prefecture extremely complicated.

When this trend spread to other urban areas, the surrounding regions realized that this was not a disturbance by demonic cultivators, but a shift in ideology.

New ideas began to emerge, and the attributes of cattle and capitalists were started to be discussed. Previously hidden thoughts began to change with the shift in "morality" and developed in a direction that no one could understand.

The "spirit of cattle and horses," which had previously been praised by the media and various temples, began to be questioned, and violent demands for unpaid wages began to occur, and attacks began to occur on major companies in Changsheng Prefecture.

While things were raging outside, Tianyuan was making even more of a ruckus.

However, it's in the reverse sense.

Sitting in the last row of the classroom, Chen Yu was reading a book. Wang Chuyun rubbed against him like a kitten on his left, and Xiao Hei rubbed against him like Wang Chuyun on his right.

Ma Daqiang came running out of the house, looking travel-worn, and said, "Godfather, I bought you the milk tea you wanted! Please just tell me what you want me to do next!"

"I order you to get into a top-tier university."

"The wind is too strong, I can't hear you!"

“…Retreat.”

"Yes!"

Chen Yu gave one of the two cups of milk tea to Wang Chuyun, then drank his milk tea while continuing to read the book in his hand.

This book, "On Morality," was left to him by Lian Qu. It was a remarkable book written by a high-ranking temple priest of the Water Deity Star Lord. When it was put on the market, the cost of borrowing it was in the seven figures.

This book offers a glimpse into the workings of the characteristic of "morality," and also helps Chen Yu understand why Tianyuan has become what it is today.

In the Great Qian world, morality is like a spring, with both its upper and lower ends subject to its constraints.

Now that the "moral" quality has been depleted by pollution, both the upper and lower halves are being drawn together, causing others to be more proactive in responding to goodwill and resisting malice.

Having understood this, Chen Yu could also understand why the people around him were suddenly being so kind to him.

It was pretty good before, but it feels even better now.

Afterwards, the deviated morality will be partially corrected, but some of the contaminated part will still remain in the [morality] characteristic, becoming part of [morality].

After carefully considering the current situation, Chen Yu felt increasingly confident that there were no problems.

It's good to have some rebellious spirit. After all, we are all cultivators. If we have to come here and be treated like beasts of burden, then what's the point of being a cultivator?
He doesn't really like the idea that giving more money will increase his motivation, but everything has its advantages and disadvantages, and we can't just see the benefits and ignore the drawbacks.

After finishing his reading, Chen Yu closed the book and began looking out the window.

The current Tianyuan can only be described with one word:
crazy.

Everyone was working hard, digging up the city with holes everywhere, then laying pipes and burying lines, and then connecting water and electricity.

The generous wages, free medical care, and various free foods provided by themselves finally transformed into motivation, plunging the cultivators and mortals of Tianyuan into a collective frenzy, and they began to work like madmen.

It is foreseeable that once this frenzy ends, Tianyuan's infrastructure will be upgraded to a higher level.

Moreover, due to the involvement of factories, the basic environment of Xintianyuan is no worse than that of a municipality.

Although this gave him a lot of positive emotions, Chen Yu was still quite happy at this moment.

Another hidden mine has been detonated.

Revealing your preparedness now allows you to manage your emotions in advance and helps you avoid risks.

An unexpected explosion would definitely cause all sorts of problems, so it's best to do it now.

Nodding in satisfaction, Chen Yu began to check his negative emotion level. It had been exactly one month since he started working on "This Incredible World," and the results of that month were gratifying.

There are currently 26 million negative emotions and 24 million positive emotions, with 20 million positive emotions in reserve.

The target value this time is 34 million, and it is expected to be completed in about a week.

However, the feeling of that sudden impulse was still there, and the unknown little devil was still eyeing him, so he had to be on his guard.

As Chen Yu pondered who it might be, Inspector Wang appeared at the door and gestured for Chen Yu to come over.

Chen Yu reluctantly placed Xiao Hei into Wang Chuyun's arms, who was also reluctant to part with him, and then they walked out of the classroom together.

Standing at the door, Chen Yu asked, "Chief Inspector Wang, is there anything I can help you with? Have more people started reporting me?"

"It's not just a lot, it's an avalanche," Chief Inspector Wang said with a wry smile. "Let's find a quiet place; I have a lot to ask you."

"The principal's office, that's the quietest place."

Where is your principal?

"He hung himself at the school gate, saying it was to atone for his sins, but I feel he has actually awakened some incredible fetish."

Inspector Wang peered out the window and, sure enough, saw Principal Liu hanging upside down at the door.

[Morality] The corrupted Tengen is really too strange.

They walked into the principal's office together. Chief Inspector Wang locked the door from the inside and then said to Chen Yu, "There are too many reports against you, and now it's not just real estate tycoons, but tycoons in other cities have started as well."

"I've never been there, why would they report me?" Chen Yu asked, puzzled.

"You got caught in the crossfire. To be honest, this is the first time I've seen a six-figure whistleblower charge against someone. You're really a celebrity now."

After receiving the materials from Inspector General Wang, Chen Yu carefully reviewed them and discovered that the situation was indeed more serious than he had imagined.

“Right now, there are wage disputes all over the place. In some places, the bosses have already had their streetlights hung up. They’re really sticking their tongues out,” Chief Inspector Wang said with a wry smile. “Especially in Sangmu City, there are many body cultivators there, and their thinking is relatively rough, so there are a lot of violent incidents related to this.”

"But I haven't seen many complaints from Sangmu City."

"Because many bosses have died and are now imprisoned in the Imperial Palace. Since they're dead, there are naturally no more complaints."

"Oh, I see... Isn't this a good thing?"

"...I don't understand you. Besides, chaos is not a good thing. Once it gets chaotic to a certain extent, this matter will no longer fall under the jurisdiction of the supervisory authority, but under the jurisdiction of the Great Star Lord."

"Which great star lord has so much free time?" Chen Yu asked, puzzled.

"I don't know either, probably the Lord of Order. That person has a natural aversion to chaos, and too much chaos is likely to attract his attention. And since he is a great lord, don't expect him to solve problems in a normal way. But it should be fine now, not enough to attract his attention."

Chen Yu wanted to ask more questions, but suddenly he noticed that the color of the sky had changed.

Just moments ago, the autumn air was crisp and clear, but now the sky is suddenly covered with dense purple clouds.

Then, amidst the swirling purple clouds, a cyan talisman floated down and hovered in the air.

Upon seeing the blue talisman, Inspector Wang's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in astonishment, "Great Star Lord...why are you being noticed!"

Then, he turned to Chen Yu and asked in astonishment, "Chen Yu, what exactly did you do to Changsheng Prefecture?"

After carefully recalling his recent actions, Chen Yu firmly stated, "No, absolutely not!"

　Having a cold makes me feel like I want to die.
