Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 2637

Otherwise, they would only be killed.

Wilbur reflected on the past, and he found himself understanding Augheimer a bit more. It seemed that life in Buck Town was not easy. The cultivators living in Buck Town were members of the Eight Great Families, working as slaves in the vast town. They were busy every day, with hardly any time for themselves.

One could always hide in caves and hunt for food outside the town. It was more remote, and even though the meals were not lavish, it provided the freedom to have private cultivation time for improvement.

It had been less than two years since Wilbur arrived in Buck Town. He gained a thousand and five hundred years' worth of cultivation in two years. Such rapid progress was enough to make countless cultivators envious.

Wilbur also reflected on why his cultivation had improved so rapidly. While he was cultivating in the mirror dimension, Felix told him that dimensional items were extremely rare, and only a few people possessed such artifacts.

His rapid improvement was all because of the bronze mirror. He agreed with what Felix said and thus treasured the bronze mirror even more.

Felix once said that dimensional items could only be created by dimensional guardians from the upper dimension. Ordinary cultivators could not possibly possess them. Therefore, for an ordinary cultivator, gaining a year of cultivation required a year of practice, and obtaining a millennium of cultivation would take a millennium of effort.

Wilbur bought some food and clothes in Buck Town, along with a barbecue grill for outdoor cooking. He wanted to head toward his hotel, but a deep voice called out from behind him after he exited the shop.

Buck Town was a town of slaughter where battles could occur inside and outside of the town. However, fighting was not allowed in hotels controlled by the Reyne family. Therefore, many cultivators seeking to preserve their lives would check into a hotel run by the Reyne family after offending a strong opponent.

Nonetheless, the cheapest night at a Reyne family hotel cost at least a hundred silver coins, which was nearly six months of savings for an ordinary cultivator. Most cultivators could not afford to stay in the hotel for long because of that. While they might temporarily escape danger, they ultimately could not avoid their demise.

No one would spare their enemies in Buck Town, after all. Ambushes were always easier than facing an opponent head-on. No cultivator wanted to be attacked by an enemy while battling a beast, so eliminating enemies completely was the only sure way to stay safe.

Only one type of cultivator could preserve their lives when facing those dangers. They were the top ten cultivators of the four major trial grounds: the Azure Dragon Trial Grounds, White Tiger Trial Grounds, Vermillion Bird Trial Grounds, and Black Tortoise Trial Grounds. Those cultivators received special protection from the Eight Great Families and could only be killed without consequences within the trial grounds. The Eight Great Families would dispatch servants to hunt down the perpetrator if they were found dead elsewhere.
