Chapter 259 (2/2)

“Oh. If this Sheng City is so powerful it can feed such a large number of people, then after I spend family’s fortune, I will visit there to ask for food...” said Ye Lang, also sincerely, though his ‘sincerity’ was a little out of place.

“Your shameless intentions will disgust people! While the sacred city will not mind, the people who live with you will definitely isolate you. You’ll be made to feel ashamed of yourself!” said the man with disdain, indirectly revealing the behaviours of the people living there.

Within Sheng City lived many followers of the Sacred Teachings. These followers were the main key to the city’s prosperity as they produced doctors to serve the city and also offered their assets and income to the public.

Other than the annual donations from different places, most of the Sacred City’s main income came from the offerings of the followers. There were many experts from different fields among the followers, including experienced businessmen.

In fact, to put it simply with a metaphor, Sheng City was like a large family clan without a surname. This family was famous for always doing good deeds, hence attracting a lot of people to join them, spreading kindness across the regions.

The clergy of the Sacred City didn’t have to do anything but preach their followers to solve the world’s problems, or at least, what it seemed like on the surface.

Regardless of what kind of organisation the city was, they had done a lot of good deeds and accepted many poor homeless people over the past thousands of years.

Even if a wicked man disguised himself as a good person, then the good deeds done by him would also be considered as good- this is a logic you cannot deny!

Furthermore, Sheng City has never been considered an evil place, to the extent that whenever someone criticised the Sacred City, that person would be subjugated by everyone. Perhaps such wicked ones did exist in the Sacred City, though not enough to represent the whole city.

All those living in Sheng City were holy. They worked hard, so whenever someone like Ye Lang showed up living his extravagant, excessive lifestyle, they would shun him and not give any help and support.

Upon arriving in such an environment, most people would start working hard. This of course excluded some thick-skinned parasites who ate and drank their way into oblivion.

In a way, this was a talent too!

No one knew what to do with these parasites either, so they were often left alone to continue living as the city parasites. These people are very common in many places- a disease that cannot be cured.

Ye Lang seemed suitable for this role because people already despised him, shunned him, while he often remained blissfully unaware…

“... Why would a rich person like you need to ask for food there? You have people supporting you,” said the man faintly, looking at Ye Lang.

Ye Lang shook his head, “There are many people supporting me, but I don’t like it. If I spend, I’ll spend the money I earned. Therefore, if I were to eat their food, I’ll also give back! I don’t like to owe favours. I’m always the one to spend, the one people can take advantage of!”
