Chapter 7 Becoming Her Aspiration

The inner city was divided into upper, middle, and lower sections, the top and bottom mainly consisting of residences and shops, while the middle hosted the City Lord Mansion and numerous small compartments dedicated to cultivation and seclusion, known as cave dwellings.

Rather than a City Lord Mansion, it resembled a unique kind of sect, where the mansion itself served as the sect's gate.

Yet, Gu Wen felt it was more akin to a company because the Taiyi City Imperial Guards could freely join or leave, receiving treatment based solely on their cultivation levels, in an employer-employee relationship.

Walking along the wall of the City Lord Mansion, Gu Wen could see across the street were densely packed cave dwellings, their doorplates divided into categories: alpha, beta, gamma, delta.
