Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

Deep into the Iron Back Mountains, there was a city. A relatively small city. But no one knew that the city existed.

Not many even came to this place. Although the Iron Back Mountains had the best ores in the entire kingdom, no one wanted to come to this treacherous location where even a single wrong step could lead to their demise.

But that was just the mortals.

Mortals couldn't come here, and so, there was not a single settlement here. After all, it was undeniable that mortals made the best cities, for they had the best taste among all.

And yet, seemingly overnight, an entire city appeared in the depths of the Iron Back Mountains. It was like the Mountain itself was carved so that it could accommodate this city on its slope.

Whoever did this was strong enough to crush Iron with his hands. Sure, even Core Formation Stage cultivators could do it, but if cultivators like that tried to level half a mountain on their own, then they would die of exhaustion even before the change on the mountain could be seen.

So whoever did this was strong enough for this to be done overnight.

Within the city itself, it was silent. No shouts, no chatter, it was absolutely silent.

People would wonder why such a city would mysteriously appear, and why its inhabitants would suddenly leave this place.

But they would be mistaken. This city was inhabited. But the only ones who stayed here were cultivators. And although these cultivators were also used to a wonderful life of cheerful laughing and joyful streets, all of that changed.

The reason for the change? Bad Management.

"What the hell are you talking about? What do you mean, the entire Moon Pavilion has been destroyed?" a loud voice reverberated in the largest building in the entire city.

The building was at the very center, and was humongous, taking a whole acre of garden space around it. In this city, which was quite small as it was, having any space used like that was exorbitant.

And yet no one in the city would complain. That was because the person within the building, the person who just shouted with anger, was the strongest in the entire city.

"Yes, City Lord. I have just received information that the Moon Pavilion was destroyed, and the person who destroyed it... goes by the name Liu Feng."

"Liu Feng? Isnt that the name of the puny boy who got us all out of that hell hole?" the city lord was on a throne above everyone else in a hall that was dedicated just for him.

There was just a throne for him, and not a single other seat in the entire hall.

"Yes, City Lord. I think it is the same person. The Ci- I mean, Min Wan escaped, and she might be coming toward us." there was a man cowering in front of the city lord.

"Do you really think that Min Wan is the true City Lord, Hou Xiang? Do you want me to give you another education?" the city lord raised his eyebrow at the man's words.

Hou Xiang shuddered. He quickly shook his head.

"Good. Then you better go and inform everyone that we are preparing for war. So what if she is coming here? She is just a young girl. We stood her oppression long enough. Can't we fight back?" the city lord scoffed.

Hou Xiang nodded and he quickly left the room.

"Damn it. Do you really think that we had a choice? You did everything, and then all of a sudden, you say that we helped you poison her? She was a much better city lord than you, you bastard." he thought in his head.

But he didn't even dare whisper it, fearing that even the walls around him had ears.

He walked to the city, and took a deep breath. He was about to shout something, when suddenly, all voice from his mouth was cut off.

No matter how much air he was pushing out, sound wasn't leaving.

Someone powerful was here, and that someone powerful was right next to him.

"Oh my dear Hou Xiang. Looks like you are still here." a sweet voice whispered in his ear. But this sweet voice felt only like poison, because he knew who it belonged to.

"City Lord!"

"You call me city lord? I thought you gave this position to Bai Chen. I wonder how you are liking that." the sweet voice said.

"I promise! We didn't want to do it. It was not us who poisoned you! Bai Chen was the one who did everything, and after you were gone, do you really think we had a choice? He was the only one in the platinum rank. Noone else could match him." Hou Xiang said with a hurry.

"Really? That is weird. Then why didn't you stop him then? I wonder. I mean, you had all the chances to stop him from poisoning me. You could have proven your loyalty then." Min Wan's voice whispered in his ears as he felt a sharp dagger to his neck.

"None of us knew until you were poisoned. This is the truth. You can ask anyone else." Hou Xiang said, his breath strained.

"Trust me. I asked everyone else." Min Wan said, and the dagger was removed.

"Well then. All of your stories check out. I guess the only thing left to do it kill Bai Chen." Min Wan appeared before Hou Xiang.

Her peerless beauty dazed him only for a second, when he processed the words she spoke.

"The story checked out? Is that why this place is so quiet? Is everyone dead?" he asked with a fearful tone.

"Do you really think that I am as heartless as Bai Chen? And to think that you lot chose him over me." Min Wan scoffed.

"We didn't choose him! We were forced!" Hou Xiang said, the fear in his eyes visible.

"Don't worry. I will make him squeal all the answers too." Min Wan smiled, and for the first time, Hou Xiang was introduced to his previous City Lord's dark side.
