Chapter 1034 New City

The notice was brief but clear, stating that due to overcrowding in the old city, a new city was specifically developed here. However, because the construction of New City involved huge expenses, all the shops in the city would be operated by the Heavenly Realm for the next three hundred years, and none would be handed over to any outsiders from the Cultivation Realm. After three hundred years, upon fully recuperating the construction costs, these shops would gradually be rented out to outside cultivators.

This announcement made everyone explode with anger.

"This is outrageous! What is the Heavenly Realm trying to do, compete with the commoners for profits?"

"Three hundred years... Why didn't they just say three thousand years! Do they need to be so ruthless? Indeed, constructing such a city isn't a small expense, but does it really need three hundred years to recover the cost?"
