Chapter 784 - 300: Xingguang Slaughters Pigs Again (Part 2)

Outside the city moat lies the outer city, where all the common people live.

The Royal Capital District, Shenxiao District, Dujiang District, San Yang District, Jinling District, Jingmo District, Mingyang District, and Phoenix Mountain District form the eight districts of the inner city, where the Ying Family resides in the Royal Capital District.

All the outer city districts are named after medicinal herbs.

Adjacent to the Royal Capital District, separated by a river, is the outer Cangzhu District.

Two of the top three prestigious schools in the Divine Martial Realm, Medicine King Medical College, and Divine Martial Medical College, are located in Cangzhu District.

Cangzhu District is therefore known as University City.

To the west of Cangzhu District is Chuangu District, where a large population of ordinary citizens without economic power or rights resides. Here, people are born into certain living conditions and are most likely to die in the same conditions.

Further west of Chuangu District is the infamous slum, Cold Water District. Here, the poor, criminals, and vagrants mostly gather.

Every nightfall, a security line is drawn between Chuangu District and Cold Water District.

The common people in Chuangu District dare not cross the security line, fearing harassment or harm from the criminals and poor in Cold Water District.

Moreover, the civilians in Chuangu District have spontaneously formed a Guard Team that keeps watch every night on their side of the security line, preventing vagrants from crossing into Chuangu District to steal or attack women.

Adjacent to Cold Water District is Purple Garden District, where Wanxiang Medical College is located.

No security line is drawn between Purple Garden District and Cold Water District because the students at Wanxiang Academy possess poison.

They often release toxins and strange Gu Worms by the roadside, making the thugs in Cold Water District dare not provoke Wanxiang Medical College and keep their distance.

To the east of Purple Garden District is Zelan District, where the wealthy of the commoner classes reside.

Chuanqiong District, Shouwu District, and Yu District are herbal cultivation bases, where you’ll hardly see tall buildings, just endless stretches of medicinal fields and mountains. Some family members of noble medical families work in these districts.

Xu Xingguang listened attentively as Ying Ziyao explained, without interrupting.

When she heard that a security line was drawn every night between Chuangu District and Cold Water District for safety, she couldn’t help but feel distraught.

"The Central Yu Alliance Government doesn’t care about this situation?"

It’s extremely dangerous for a group of common people without superpowers, unable to protect themselves, to live next to a group of lawless thugs.

The Central Yu Alliance’s inaction astonished Xu Xingguang.

Ying Ziyao gave a bitter smile, "Xingguang, in the Divine Martial Realm, Super Power Users and ancient noble families are the rulers. The suffering of common people is unseen by anyone."

"The law-abiding commoners in the Divine Martial Realm are the most pitiful people."

Xu Xingguang felt a bit desolate in her heart.

As they talked, they crossed the bustling streets of Shenxiao District. "Look," Ying Ziyao pointed to the pedestrian bridge at the end of the road and said, "Cross this bridge, and we’ll enter Chuangu District."

Xu Xingguang looked up.

In the middle of the stone bridge stood a road sign, the black sign sparkling with eerie blue light at night.

The arrow pointing north reads ’Chuangu District,’ while the arrow pointing south reads ’Shenxiao District.’

The buildings in the southern Shenxiao District appear imposing and strict, filled with security. The houses in the northern Chuangu District seem slightly old, packed tightly together, and the slightly dirty streets plainly describe the class divide.

Xu Xingguang had been here before.

Three months ago, the night she, young Ying Huai, and middle-aged Ying Zhongmei followed the Ying Family envoy Ying Jing to Medicine King City, Ying Jing brought them to this area to stay at a hotel.

It turns out that night, they were only a road away from the thug-inhabited Cold Water District.

If any of the three—Xu Xingguang, Ying Huai, or Ying Zhongmei—had been curious enough to stroll around the road, they would have been noticed by the thugs from Cold Water District.

Even if they were killed by people from Cold Water District, Ying Jing could wash her hands free of the blame.

Thinking back, Ying Jing’s intentions were truly sinister.

"Here we are." Ying Ziyao stopped in front of a black five-story building.

Xu Xingguang looked up and saw the hotel’s sign reading ’Vivian Hotel – Chuangu Branch.’

It was a coincidence that the hotel Ying Ziyao had found was the same one Xu Xingguang and the others stayed at last time.

"This hotel doesn’t require a DNA ID for check-in." Ying Ziyao quietly told Xu Xingguang, "Our Bai Ze Realm IDs can’t be used for now, we can only find such black market hotels."
