Yet today, Wei Fan heard the same words again, and the scene before him felt very familiar, as if he had returned to the past.
Recalling the shocked expression he had when he first heard the news, Wei Fan quickly turned his attention to He Song.
He wanted to see what expression He Song would have after hearing this news. “Of course, I remember. It was my first auction in my life.”
“But at that time, my cultivation was low, and I didn’t have time to take a closer look, so I left in a hurry.”
“If I have the opportunity to participate in some auctions in the future, I can take a good look and not be in such a hurry as before.”
He Song nodded, and the scene of attending that small auction with Wei Fan and Meng Guan flashed through his mind.
At that time.
Meng Guan had not yet reached Foundation Establishment.
He and Wei Fan were just Qi-refining late-stage cultivators.
In Green Wall Immortal City, they were weak and could be easily stepped on by anyone.
For this reason, the three of them were very low-key when they went to the small auction.
They didn’t even pay much attention to the auctioned items, they just wanted to acquire a Vein Protection Elixir for Meng Guan.
However, after that, Meng Guan successfully achieved Foundation Establishment, and the fate of the three of them changed dramatically.
Looking back at that scene now.
He Song was quite satisfied with his performance back then.
No trouble was caused.
No delays.
He left immediately after acquiring the item.
It was such cautious behavior that was the fundamental reason he had lived for so long.
“This time, fellow Daoist, you can really take a good look.”
“We three came here today to invite you to jointly manage a business association.” 𝘧𝘳ℯ𝓮𝘸𝓮𝑏𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝘤ℴ𝘮
“In this business association, there will be such small auctions.”
“It seems that the small auction we participated in together in Green Wall Immortal City back then was also organized by a business association like this one.”
“Those Vein Protection Elixirs were also circulated from the hands of various Masters in Green Wall Immortal City.”
Seeing He Song seemed interested, Meng Guan smiled slightly, feeling more confident in his heart.
He had a good understanding of He Song.
Their small circle had existed for decades, and their understanding of each other had been continuously growing.
Inviting He Song to jointly manage this business association was almost a sure thing in his opinion.
Master Bai Yun left.
The shares previously given to Master Bai Yun would naturally fall into He Songs hands.
This was also the reason why the three of them came together today.
He looked at He Song.
Seeing that He Song seemed to have made up his mind.
Meng Guan then began to explain.
“This business association will be owned by the four of us. Excluding the spirit stones needed for the normal operation of the association, the other proceeds will be divided into four parts and sent to our respective mansions every year.”
“According to the profits of previous years, if we do nothing, each person’s annual income would be about several thousand spirit stones.”
“However, if fellow Daoist has something to sell, it can also be sold through this business association, and the proceeds do not need to be shared with others. ”
“It can also be considered a place for quick selling.”
“What does fellow Daoist think?”
After hearing the words in his ears and considering the risks, He Song nodded, agreeing to the proposal.
According to Meng Guan, this business association existed specifically to serve
the Master Guardians of the Immortal City.
Compared to the previous annual offering of ten thousand spirit stones.
Although this business association seemed more troublesome, its purpose was essentially the same.
To provide spirit stones to the Master Guardians of the Immortal City was the reason for the existence of this business association, as well as the annual offering.
In an Immortal City.
It is essential to serve the four Master Guardians well.
It has almost become a consensus among the various families and forces within the Immortal City.
Only by serving them well can they avoid creating trouble for no reason and avoid aggravating problems.
If they are short of spirit stones, the unlucky ones must be the various families and forces within the Immortal City.
For this reason.
These people were eager to give spirit stones to He Song and the others.
They were afraid not to treat the four of them well.
“Excellent, since fellow Daoist has agreed, then the annual proceeds will be sent directly to your mansion.”
“Fellow Daoist doesn’t have to worry about other matters, they will handle everything themselves. ”
“If you want to sell something, you can send someone to the Heaven Power Commerce Association in the city, and the association will naturally offer the highest price. ”
Seeing He Song agreed, Meng Guan talked about the various aspects of the business association while exchanging glances with Wei Fan and Xuan He, seeing a trace of happiness in each other’s eyes.
Now the four of them had a common interest.
There was no need to worry about what would happen in the future.
Previously, they managed this business association with Master Bai Yun.
Now that Master Bai Yun had left.
He Song took over Master Bai Yun’s power, naturally, he needed to manage this business association as well.
As for why the three of them came together.
And why they chose this moment to find He Song.
They wanted He Song to calm down after learning of the extra income of ten thousand spirit stones each year.
Then they came here to inform He Song of this matter.
With this, He Song naturally found it much easier to accept the matter.
He already had an additional income of 10,000 spirit stones a year.
Now, adding a few thousand more spirit stones was even easier to accept. This was also the reason why the three of them came today and were present at the same time.
Since all four were involved in the operation of the commerce association, it was necessary for everyone to be present.
The matter was settled.
He Song was also involved in the management of the commerce association.
With this, Meng Guan, Wei Fan, and Master Xuan He soon bade farewell and returned to their respective cave mansions. When everyone was gone.
Only He Song was left in the vast He Mansion.
He Song shook his head and entered the quiet room.
In the quiet room.
He recalled the various things Meng Guan and the others had said and done during their visit.
A faint smile flashed in He Song’s eyes.
“I must say, Lao Meng and Wei have become more cautious now, and so has
Master Xuan He. Despite being a sect elite, he doesn’t seem to be anxious.” “It’s just a matter of jointly operating a commerce association.” “Even if it’s discovered by others in the sect, there won’t be any consequences.” “There should be such tricks in other Immortal Cities as well.”
“With such caution, they waited for me to accept the additional 10,000 spirit stones a year and then personally came to inform me.”
“It seems that after experiencing some things, Lao Meng and Wei have a new understanding of caution.”
“It’s a cause for celebration.”
“After all, only by being cautious enough can we live longer.”
Gazing in the direction of Meng Guan and Wei Fan’s mansions, He Song’s thoughts flashed in his heart as he sat cross-legged.
The joint visit of the three interrupted He Song’s cultivation, forcing him to greet them.
Now that they were gone, He Song naturally wouldn’t neglect his own cultivation progress.
After a moment of reflection in his heart, He Song soon resumed his cultivation.
Practicing the Thick Earth Formulas.
As the rich spirit Qi from the outside world was continuously absorbed by He Song’s body, his mana began to grow at this moment as well.
With the increase of mana and cultivation, He Song’s strength also began to grow stronger at this moment.
Time passed, and the years went by.
After Master Bai Yun left Heaven Power Immortal City, He Song soon found his footing in the city.
With the help of his two good friends Meng Guan and Wei Fan, He Song’s name gradually became known in Heaven Power Immortal City.
Although he was almost always in cultivation and didn’t pay much attention to the outside world, legends about him began to circulate in Heaven Power Immortal City.
He Song didn’t care much about these legends.
However, as time went by, He Song soon heard about various news from all over.
The first one
was that Ping’er’s cultivation had successfully broken through to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.
In He Song’s sixth year in Heaven Power Immortal City, Ping’er’s cultivation had gone from the Early Foundation Establishment stage to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.
Although there was hardly any bottleneck between the Early Foundation Establishment and Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and the time it took for Ping’er to break through was almost thirty years, it was still a breakthrough in cultivation and a cause for celebration. He Song specially sent a congratulatory message for this.
However, he didn’t send a gift.
When Meng Guan and Wei Fan broke through to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and when he himself broke through, no one had sent gifts.
So, although Ping’er had made a breakthrough this time, He Song didn’t send a gift.
Sending a congratulatory message was already a gesture from He Song.
As for a gift, forget it.
After receiving He Song’s congratulations, Ping’er specially wrote back to thank He Song.
She informed He Song that she was going to be transferred to Jade Immortal
City, taking over for Master Qingy Yue as the guardian of Jade Immortal City.
He Song was a bit surprised that Ping’er hadn’t been brought back to the Thick Earth Sect by Master Qingy Yue, whose cultivation had reached the Late Foundation Establishment Stage.
But upon further thought, He Song didn’t dig any deeper.
Master Qingy Yue wouldn’t let Ping’er die in Jade Immortal City. Since she was sent to serve as the guardian Master of Jade Immortal City, she must have her own plans.
He didn’t need to speculate wildly.
Perhaps Master Qingy Yue had left Ping’er many life-saving methods.
With such thoughts, He Song casually warned her to be careful of the Demon Cultivator’s attack before continuing his seclusive cultivation.
Apart from Ping’er breaking through to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment,
He Song also constantly received various news from Master Qingy Yue and Su
Qian.
For example, the movements of the Northern Magic Alliance.
For example, what happened within the Thick Earth Sect.
For example, the bold men of the Golden Sword Sect were once again clamoring for a fight with the Seven Star Sect in the alliance.
For example….
