CHAPTER 1104: CHAPTER 341: "EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN PATH.

So...

Almost every now and then, the boss of a certain force, surrounded by a group of his subordinates, would tearfully bury his men here, crying bitterly, and then go back to boast about it extensively.

To be honest.

This man might not even be willing to bury his own parents and women in the "Immortal Cemetery," but for a subordinate who died fighting for him, he would spend a great fortune to bury them here.

This is clearly about buying the bones of a thousand horses with a heavy price.

In plain words.

As long as you’re loyal to me, I’m willing to spend so many spirit stones on someone who’s already dead, let alone you who are still alive!

From then on, the entire "Immortal Cemetery" started to become completely popular, and many buyers would go back and boast about it extensively. So even though the Immortal Cemetery was a very niche product in Central State City, its reputation in the entire Tidal Immortal Realm was not low at all.

Everyone would boast about it extensively.

After all, having spent so many spirit stones, wouldn’t it be a waste if they didn’t brag about it?

This person is really a talent.

For ten years, he stayed in Central State City, and observing this person became his greatest pleasure in the absence of Chen Qiu.

Then, he clicked his tongue and jumped down from the city wall, immediately encountering a middle-aged man in armor vis-à-vis. This middle-aged man’s face instantly darkened upon seeing him: "Jiang Yiping, where the hell did you run off to again?"

"Why don’t you take a look at how many messages I sent you through the protective talisman at your waist? Don’t tell me your stomach hurts again. You’re all in the Cultivation world, how come only your stomach keeps hurting every day? If you keep this up, you’ll be kicked out of the Central State City Guard!"

Jiang Buping subconsciously glanced at the protective talisman on his waist, indeed finding plenty of messages inside, then he put on the face of a slick veteran, pulling out hundreds of high-grade spirit stones from his arms and stuffing them over, grinning: "Big brother, just cut me some slack."

"You..."

The middle-aged man’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, though his eyes were full of temptation, this time he didn’t accept them, but pushed them back: "Keep it, members of the Central State City Guard only earn 1000 high-grade spirit stones a month, you giving me hundreds at once would mean working for nothing for a good half a month."

"I don’t even know what you’re up to."

"When you came, you clearly said you were a pitiful person from some remote valley, who luckily cultivated to a Human Immortal Cultivation and wanted to save some money to make a living in Central State City, that’s why you joined the guard."

"You’ve been here for ten years, I joined at the same time as you and I’m now already a squad leader, while you are still just the most ordinary member, you should really reflect on yourself."

"Since you’re here, don’t just get by; if you keep being lazy like this, it’s going to be hard for me, especially with the Ascension Conference coming up, it’s a busy time."

"1000 high-grade spirit stones a month equals 800,000 mid-grade spirit stones, work hard for a year and saving 8 million mid-grade spirit stones isn’t a problem. Save up for ten years or so and you can build your own small family clan when you go back, isn’t that a good future? Why spend every day just getting by?"

"Hey."

Jiang Buping looked at the middle-aged man with a feigned smile: "Big brother, your position is earned with skill, promotion is deserved; as for me, I’m just trying to make a living with my meager skills."

"Sigh."

The middle-aged man sighed deeply, his eyes filled with fatigue: "Because we came in at the same time, I’ve always wanted to guide you onto the right path, but if you continue to remain stubborn, I’ll say no more."

"Everyone has their own path."

"But today, I have to tell you, I’m resigning in a few days to go home, I’ve saved quite a bit of spirit stones, I’m going back to find a Taoist couple, build a small family clan of my own, raise my kids, and pass on my legacy."

"Oh?"

A trace of amusement flashed in Jiang Buping’s eyes: "Captain, does your new family clan need someone to provide support? 10 high-grade spirit stones a month will do it!"

"Get lost!"

The middle-aged man said with feigned annoyance while rolling his eyes: "Even 1 high-grade spirit stone seems too much— the enemy comes, you’re the first to run, what use are you?"

"Not necessarily, maybe at a critical time I can save the family from peril, then the spirit stones spent on me would definitely not be wasted; without boasting or blustering, in the Tidal Immortal Realm, no one can face me when I go all out, not even Chen Qiu!"

Jiang Buping patted his chest, full of pride, saying: "Even Chen Qiu is not my match!"

"Heh."

The middle-aged man gave a few dry laughs, then patted Jiang Yiping on the shoulder, his face expressionless: "If you could defeat Chen Qiu, then I would be the Human Race Leader of the Tidal Trap, alright then, after work tonight go to the usual place, I’ve prepared a farewell feast there, let’s gather with the brothers before I leave."

"You must come."

"After all, I’ve been able to save up enough spirit stones so quickly because of your great contributions, without your monthly respect, I wouldn’t have saved this much."

"No problem."

Jiang Buping watched the middle-aged man’s departing back, waving with a smile, and after a long while, he sighed in a daze, having spent ten years in the Central State City Guard.

He actually really enjoyed interacting with these down-to-earth people.

Everyone’s thoughts were very simple.

Save enough spirit stones, go home and establish a small family clan, become a Family Head, and even though their cultivation wasn’t low, being at least a Human Immortal, essentially an Immortal, it sounded no different than a Foundation Establishment practitioner saving spirit stones to go home and marry a wife.

There was a world of difference in cultivation, yet dreams were basically the same.

For people with "Human Immortal" or "Earth Immortal" cultivation, many had a clear understanding of themselves, knowing their potential would lead them only this far, and that even if they tried harder, their cultivation wouldn’t go any higher.

That’s quite nice.

Jiang Buping lightly chuckled, starting to ponder what gift to prepare for his old friend to give him a big surprise.

He couldn’t wait to see his friend’s incredible look when he revealed his true strength.
