Qingdi City is the stronghold of the Life Harvesting Sect, just like other Sects, it has a large base within the city.
Unlike the Soundless Gate Sect of Southern Plains Kingdom, who is the largest sect and also in charge of the matters of the Sects, every major city has a treasure pagoda to represent the disciples of the Soundless Gate Sect stationed there for cultivation.
The big cities of Beigao Country, on the other hand, are a mixed bag.
For instance, the Warrior Clan is a martial arts school.
The Purple Mountain Sect, in the city, is a place for those who died and had no one to bury them to be laid to rest.
And the Life Harvesting Sect presents itself as a grand charity hall.
This charity hall specifically takes in orphans, uniformly under the age of ten; beyond this age, they are no longer accepted.
