C1815 Heaven will Punish You
Xiao Ge stared at the innkeeper. He could feel the disdain in the innkeeper's eyes. He was very unhappy in his heart. After all, he was an Expert of Tribulation Crossing Stage. He was an invincible existence in both the Immortal and Mortal Realms, an invincible handsome man like him. To be discriminated against here again and again, this had already exceeded the limits of his patience!
"Do you still want to stay in the shop? If you don't want to, then go out!" Sensing Xiao Ge's hostility, the innkeeper snorted lightly, his tone full of disdain.
"Are you sure you want to charge me ten thousand for a night's stay?" Xiao Ge looked at the innkeeper and asked unhurriedly.
"The price has increased. Twenty thousand." The manager coldly harrumphed, "What's wrong? You want to make a move? I know you're an Expert of Tribulation Crossing Stage, but this is the Sky Reaching City. Not to mention that I am also a Nascent Soul Stage Immortal, even if I am just an ordinary person... It's not something a newbie like you can do."
"Is that so?" Xiao Ge smiled faintly. "Don't say that I didn't warn you. Your inn will collapse soon. If you don't want to be crushed to death, you should come out earlier."
After saying this, Xiao Ge turned around and walked out of the inn. The moment he walked out of the inn, the inn suddenly collapsed without any warning.
Several exclamations sounded out, and dozens of people suddenly flew out from the inn that was collapsing. In just a few short seconds, the entire inn had turned into dust. There was only one place that had collapsed, and this place... It was where the innkeeper of the inn was.
The innkeeper didn't come out, but a few pieces of wood smashed into his body. It pressed him to the ground, which made some of the people who quickly came over feel strange. This innkeeper was a Nascent Soul Stage Immortal cultivator, so how could he be smashed to the ground by a few ordinary logs?
The scene suddenly became slightly chaotic. There was also a man and woman who were having fun on the bed even before it was dark. They were suddenly exposed in front of the crowd and were hurriedly putting on their clothes.
"Cough cough..." After a series of coughs, the shopkeeper who was smashed down finally pushed the wood away and got up. It seemed that he was basically uninjured, but at this moment, he was very angry.
"You actually destroyed my inn?" The shopkeeper glared at Xiao Ge and shouted out.
"Your inn collapsed by itself, what does that have to do with me?" Xiao Ge had an innocent expression on his face, "I told you not to discriminate against rookies like me, but you insisted on discriminating against rookies. Then you suffered retribution, and the inn collapsed on its own. This is your problem, but it has nothing to do with me. "
"Do you think I don't know that you did it? I will report this to the City Lord. Wait for me if you have the guts. I will go to the City Lord's Mansion now!" The innkeeper looked flustered and exasperated.
"Go and report this to the City Lord. Anyway, I didn't do anything." Xiao Ge had an indifferent expression. Then, he stretched his body and yawned. "Oh, I'm a little tired. I'll continue looking for an inn."
Xiao Ge no longer paid attention to the flustered and exasperated innkeeper. He directly walked towards another inn on the opposite side. At this moment, the surrounding people had basically understood the reason behind this matter. It turned out that this newcomer had been discriminated against by the newcomers, and in the end, he had gone mad.
This immediately aroused the interest of some people. Regarding the matter of the Sky Reaching City discriminating against the rookies, it was indeed not a secret. In fact, this was actually a rule that was allowed by the City Lord. The reason why this rule appeared was to please the original citizens of Sky Reaching City.
The appearance of this rule had actually been traced back to a long time ago. In the past, there was no so-called discrimination against rookies in the Sky Reaching City. After all, the rookies who could come here were all Tribulation Crossing Stage experts. Newbies like these were usually the targets of roping them in. However, as more and more rookies appeared, everyone started to be dissatisfied with the rookies.
The reason why they were dissatisfied was that most of the rookies that appeared were too generous. This was actually very normal. The rookies who were able to transcend their tribulations and arrive here... Basically, they were the most powerful existences on the original cultivation planets. This also meant that... They often possess all the wealth of their original planets... When they came here, most of them brought the most valuable wealth of their original planet with them. And so, almost all of them had an endless amount of money.
One should know that even if those planets were not as good as the Immortal Alliance Star, the resources of the Immortal Alliance Star were divided among countless people. However, those newbies had brought the resources of the entire planet. This kind of wealth was absolutely incomparable to most of the people of the Immortal Alliance.
Thus, the rule of discrimination against newbies finally appeared. This rule was discriminating against rookies. To put it bluntly, it was a disguised act of robbing rookies. Basically, no matter how rich the rookies who came here were, they would be plundered in this way within a year. As for the people of Sky Reaching City, they could also indirectly obtain benefits.
Therefore, other than the rookies who were robbed, basically, the entire Sky Reaching City welcomed this rule. All these years, although there were some rookies who were dissatisfied, none of them really resisted. One should know that opposing this rule was basically going against the entire Sky Reaching City. In the past, there had never been a newbie who had such courage.
But now, such a newbie had actually appeared. Therefore, everyone was immediately interested. When Xiao Ge walked to the inn opposite them, everyone followed him and surrounded him.
"Shopkeeper, how much is the room here for one night?" Xiao Ge walked into the inn and asked unhurriedly.
"No Tongtian Plate?" The shopkeeper first asked to confirm.
"No, I'm new here" Xiao Ge admitted his identity as a newcomer with an honest look on his face.
"Fifteen thousand celeste for one night." The shopkeeper immediately gave Xiao Ge the answer.
"Shopkeeper, the inn opposite has collapsed. Do you know what happened?" Xiao Ge said with a serious expression, "I don't think you know. Actually, I'm not too sure either. However, the shopkeeper just wanted to charge me ten thousand immortal coins for a night. Then, his inn collapsed. What do I think? If you charge me 15,000 immortal coins, your inn might collapse as well. "
The surroundings went into an uproar. This fellow was just pretending to be innocent earlier, yet now, he was simply starting to directly threaten him. Isn't this newbie a bit too arrogant?
"Are you threatening me?" The manager frowned. "You're a newcomer. Perhaps you don't understand. Our inn is a proper business, and the City Lord will protect us."
"Yeah, the City Lord will protect you. However, the heavens might not protect you." Xiao Ge shook his head and sighed. Then, he turned around and left, "Sometimes, the heavens will punish you."
Xiao Ge walked out of the inn unhurriedly. A second later, behind him... The inn, which looked rather beautiful, was in front of everyone's eyes. It quickly turned into powder. A gust of wind blew past and the inn disappeared. Only a few dozen astonished guests and the flabbergasted shopkeeper were left behind.1
