You want me to take out a loan to practice cultivation? I'll just pay off the debt physically.

After selecting a suitable location in the Brawl City, Lin Xia purchased an area within it.

His powerful divine sense had already thoroughly investigated the details of this area. Not only were there a large number of extraordinary individuals of varying strengths gathered here, forming a natural barrier and source of information.

More importantly, there is a busy public teleportation array node nearby, which residents rely heavily on for their daily travel and goods turnover.

This means that information flows quickly and the population is highly mobile, making it an excellent location to establish a foothold, integrate into the environment, and quietly expand.

Despite the strict purchase restrictions imposed on this area by the Church of the Night and its affiliated forces, and the stringent identity verification process that bordered on obstruction, it was like an invisible iron gate.

But none of these were problems for Lin Xia.

Resources and power, when combined, are enough to crush any worldly obstacle.

However, in order to fully align with the Red Heart Society's core strategy of discreet infiltration and avoiding premature alerting of the Dark Night Church's leadership, he preferred to use subtle interpersonal skills and business acumen to win people over with virtue, rather than resorting to the earth-shattering power of the Red Heart Society.

It's simply a matter of finding a key person and offering them a sincere offer that's hard to refuse.

Whether it's rare resources, insider information, or a promise of future benefits, it's all accompanied by well-placed, tacit hints that the other party understands implicitly.

This process was nothing more than a piece of cake for Lin Xia, who was well-versed in it.

Thus, amidst the melodious clinking of gold coins, the silent signing of contracts, and the tacit understanding, an area sufficient to serve as a bridgehead for the Red Heart Society quietly changed hands.

The Red Heart Society thus infiltrated the chaotic city ruled by the laws of darkness without anyone noticing.

The original Red Heart Society was as low-key as a pebble thrown into the deep sea, not causing the slightest noticeable ripple in the murky, stagnant waters of Brawl City.

Compared to their high-profile and ruthless methods in other worlds, the Red Heart Society has been very low-key this time.

It was a low-key, massive force that didn't seem like it was under the control of a true god at all.

After all, the Red Heart Society's strategy was to use business to gain a foothold, secure a position, and then infiltrate the Church of Gods.

Therefore, Chixinhui chose the most down-to-earth and least attention-grabbing approach.

They simply put up a sign advertising for workers!
By employing business acumen, they developed a large workforce and then leveraged these members to wield significant influence in the local community.

Subsequently, they established relations with the Church of the Night.

Although this is the purpose of the Chixin Society, it is quite normal to recruit employees and make them loyal.

At first, the residents of Brawl City, who were struggling to survive and had seen the harsh realities of the world, merely glanced at the newly appeared sign without any reaction.

Aren't there enough job openings in the city?
Especially those large, extraordinary factories that spew smoke and roar day and night, opening their mouths like giant beasts every month to devour a large amount of cheap labor.

High-intensity pressing is commonplace, and protective measures are practically non-existent.

Horrifying stories of workers dying tragically on the production line, being swallowed by machines due to operational errors, or simply disappearing into thin air during a late-night overtime shift spread like a plague through the slums.

The bloody lessons taught the seasoned survivors of Brawl City a valuable lesson.

Compared to these, they would rather work in seemingly insignificant small workshops or online stores, where the boss might just be the neighbor's son.

At least there, if the unscrupulous boss really reveals his true colors and tries to rob and kill you, you can still fight to the death with your worthless life and take the other person down with you.

In this damn world, it's worth it to trade a worthless life for the life of a heartless businessman!

However, the Red Heart Society quickly took action and completely overturned the survival rules that had been in place in Chaos City for countless years.

When the shops under the Chixin Society quietly opened, the wages and benefits they offered were like a boulder thrown into a dead quagmire!
Salaries far exceeding the highest local standards, clear and transparent promotion channels, astonishingly comprehensive job safety guarantees, and even free skills training and family medical subsidies.

Each benefit was like a heavy hammer blow, striking the numb hearts of the Brawl City residents and causing unprecedented shock and commotion.

At first, people suspected that this was just a flash in the pan, or a publicity stunt by some arrogant new force.

It's even said that it's full of conspiracy; joining the Red Heart Society might mean selling your soul and plunging yourself into the deepest hell.

They even had to abandon their own faith in the dark, lest they be unable to be guided by the goddess after death.

But everyone was shocked when the Redhearts began to extend their tentacles swiftly and resolutely into every corner of Brawl City, like a sophisticated war machine.

It covers all areas, from the most basic necessities of life, such as food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, to the supply of resources that are crucial to the cultivation of extraordinary individuals.

This massive business expansion capability completely dispelled the doubts in the hearts of the Brawl City residents.

Every item that Chixin Club brought out completely crushed the poorly made local products in Chaos City, as if it were a dimensional reduction attack.

More durable fabrics, more delicious and nutritious food, more effective medicines with fewer side effects, and more ingeniously designed and powerful standard weapons.
The Red Heart Society sells everything that living beings need for survival and development, and the quality is excellent, while the price is quite competitive.

This is no longer a simple competition, but a fatal erosion of the original interest structure of the entire Brawl City! The ruthless cutting of the pie of profit naturally touches the nerves of those who have already benefited.

Discontent, jealousy, and even resentment quickly arose among the local shop owners whose business had been taken away, the middlemen whose sources of income had been cut off, and the small gangs that relied on them.

Various forms of suppression, both overt and covert, followed one after another.

Malicious reporting, spreading rumors, hiring thugs to harass customers, and colluding with suppliers to cut off supplies are just some of the insidious and ruthless tactics employed.

But to their dismay, they discovered that all their previously ineffective tactics had failed them this time.

Chixin's handling of these business-related attacks is textbook perfect in its professionalism, efficiency, and composure.

Malicious report?

The Chixin Society's accounts are crystal clear and its compliance is impeccable.

What is the official stance of the Brawl City staff?
The Red Heart Society is also quite adept at forming cliques and giving gifts.

The Chixin Society will give the same gifts that others can give.

This led the slanderers to despairingly discover that their prized underhanded tactics had stumbled right into the Red Heart Society's area of ​​expertise.

Seeing that conventional methods were completely ineffective, the enraged local forces finally tore off their last shred of pretense, revealing their most primal fangs.

Physical destruction!

Several gang leaders, who were secretly backed by low-level superhumans, plotted in a secret underground room, deciding to use the simplest and most brutal method to eradicate this unruly outsider on a dark and windy night.

However, all the forces involved in the conspiracy and its execution, whether they were ruthless thugs or the bosses behind the scenes, completely disappeared from the map of Brawl City after that decisive night.

There was no earth-shattering battle, no survivors or clues left behind. Their strongholds, businesses, and even personal residences were silently reduced to scorched earth or ruins, as if completely wiped out by an invisible giant hand.

The Red Heart Society never revealed the slightest fluctuation of its extraordinary power, but its ruthless methods—thunderous, thorough, and leaving no trace—extinguished all restless ambitions.

At the same time, it intimidated all forces in the entire Chaos City, leaving them trembling in fear.

Fear began to spread in the shadows, and various factions secretly speculated with trepidation.

Behind the Red Heart Society, there must be a powerful and unfathomable backer!

At least a high-level transcendent being of the seventh rank or above!
There is even a very high probability that an eighth-level expert is in charge.

As for the ninth rank or even demigod?

The moment that thought popped into their heads, they nipped it in the bud. What a joke!
How could someone with such extraordinary abilities possibly condescend to run a general store in a place like Chaos City?
Why give welfare to ordinary people who are like ants, and make empty promises about becoming extraordinary people after working for five years?

This is an insult to even the strongest experts!

The idea of ​​a true god overseeing something is something I wouldn't even dare to dream of.

How is this any different from the world's richest man traveling thousands of miles to his own doorstep to snatch the vegetable leaves from his own bowl?
Therefore, after receiving a vague report from his subordinates that there was a high-level superhuman secretly supporting them, the deacons of the Dark Night Church in Brawl City who were in charge of daily affairs only paid routine attention to this emerging business group called the Red Heart Society.

After that, they lost interest in the files and put them aside, no longer investing any more effort in them.

In their eyes, he was just another slightly capable passerby in the rise and fall of countless forces in Chaos City.

As long as they don't openly challenge the authority of the church and pay the full amount of offerings, let them do whatever they want.

piece of cake!
It doesn't matter!
It was precisely in this delicate yet favorable atmosphere that the Red Heart Society's expansion did not stop at the chaos of fighting in one city.

Meanwhile, the Red Heart Society has also begun to appear in other cities in the Chaos City, which is also a battleground for the Dark Night Church.

These new outposts also started discreetly, beginning with shop operations and recruitment, carefully integrating into the local environment.

Their methods are almost identical to those of Brawl City.

At most, due to the different local customs and traditions of each city and the different cultural situations among different ethnic groups, each city has made different arrangements for its strategic deployment.

Unfortunately, the Red Heart Society's headquarters is still in its developmental stage, so the Red Heart Society has adopted a steady and cautious approach this time.

They disguised themselves as ordinary supernatural forces so that they could easily join various divine sects.

Otherwise, if they had shown from the beginning that they had demigods or even true gods in charge, would these religious sects still dare to recruit members of the Red Heart Society?

How can we then leverage the power of these religious sects?
Are you suggesting I become a traitor and choose to defect?

But what normal religious sect would wholeheartedly nurture a traitor? (End of Chapter)
