Chapter 49: A Bountiful Harvest

Since both of his friends agreed, He Song didn’t dispute and accepted the benefits.

As for favours, he could pay them back slowly over time.

After all, he planned to live a long time.

If he couldn’t repay them immediately, it would be fine to return the favour to their descendants.

Thinking this way, He Song casually accepted the pile of goods in front of him, and then thanked the two men in front of him with a bow of his hand.

The two men waved their hands in a gesture of indifference.

The matter about Chen Zhou was settled.

He Song lightly rubbed the storage bag in his hand, breathing out a sigh of relief in his heart.

Good that he’s dead.

Good that he’s dead.

Only the dead would pose no threat to him.

Just like Chen Zhou, who had offended him and begun to secretly investigate him.

He Song wouldn’t give such a person the opportunity to retaliate.

He was not one to let enemies grow powerful enough to threaten him.

If he felt threatened, he would eliminated that danger as quickly as possible.

If not for the shot.

The shot would be a thunderbolt.

Couldn’t beat him? No problem, a friend could assist him instead.

Although asking a friend for help required payment, once his own cultivation improved and he accumulated more spirit stones, this small expense wouldn’t be significant.

Besides, Chen Zhou’s death had brought him a storage bag and a few tens of spirit stones.

Although he would have to return these things down the line, having them now would allow He Song to grow stronger more quickly.

A few tens of spirit stones.

If he used these to purchase skills, He Song believed his power would increase.

The increase might be slight and would require time to master the skills, but it would definitely lead to an improvement.

Once his own strength was substantial enough and his enemies were relatively weak, then He Song would consider secretly eliminating threats.

After carefully considering everything from Chen Zhou’s first appearance to Wei Fan bringing Chen Zhou’s ashes, He Song’s mind gradually stabilized.

He handled this crisis perfectly.

From the moment he offended Chen Zhou to Chen Zhou’s ashes appearing in front of him, less than a day had passed.

He quickly eliminated the crisis, at least in He Song’s eyes, without any mistake.

As for Chen Zhou.

He might never have expected.

To offend someone in the morning.

Moreover, it was not a face-to-face confrontation but rather a subtle investigation of the opponent’s information. Then… by dusk, his life was already over.

Not only was his body cremated.

His ashes were put in a small jar and brought to He Song.

Perhaps until his death, he would never know who wanted to kill him.

Now that Chen Zhou is dead.

All that remains is to occasionally keep an eye out to see if anyone seeks revenge for him.

Given Wei Fan’s and his own connections within the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, they would be the first to know if anything happens.

There’s no need to worry too much.

He Song’s eyebrows gradually relaxed.

On the side, Wei Fan and Meng Guan also began discussing what they had both experienced over the past three years.

He Song listened while learning about the changes in the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion and the Red Spirit Gold Mine over the past three years.

The Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

What Wei Fan learned was not different from what He Song knew.

Ever since Master Cheng Shan returned three years ago, the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion began to recruit loose cultivators on a grand scale.

However, because of this, the quality of the new members in the Immortal Pavilion started to vary.

There were some like He Song who were recruited into the Pavilion while still in the first-tier Qi Refining.

There were some like Chen Zhou who were recruited into the Pavilion when they had reached the Qi-refining mid stage.

More of them, however, were loose cultivators from the second to third-tiers of the Qi Refining, and they were also recruited into the Pavilion. There were differences among these three types of cultivators.

First.

Cultivators like He Song who were in the first-tier Qi Refining when they joined the Pavilion, could quickly adjust to the inside of the Pavilion, steadily increase their cultivate, and wouldn’t cause trouble.

In the recruitment process three years ago, most of the cultivators recruited had a clear mind and hadn’t gone through life as a loose cultivator.

Among the cultivators in the Immortal Pavilion, a large portion would join the Thick Earth Sect if they luckily established their foundation. Naturally, the sect hoped that the cultivators’ minds were pure so they could further their cultivation after joining the sect.

Second.

Cultivators like Chen Zhou who joined the Pavilion in the Qi-refining mid stage had difficulty adjusting. Although they had settled down more than when they were loose cultivators, their core temperament still reflected the habits of being a loose cultivator.

Take Chen Zhou as an example whose nature was wayward. He often bullied the weak, extorted spirit stones, and always sought to do evil was the norm for such mid-stage Qi refining cultivators.

The Pavilion’s upper echelons had complaints about this kind of cultivator, but since the Pavilion currently needed their labor, they turned a blind eye.

Perhaps, when they no longer need these cultivators in the future, those with twisted characters will face the fate of being discarded after use.

Third.bender

Cultivators who were loose cultivators from the second-tier to third-tier of Qi Refining.

This group of cultivators, who had gone through the period of being a loose cultivator, understood how harsh and dangerous life as a loose cultivator could be.

Also, due to their low cultivation level, they basically belonged to the cautious and conscientious category.

They didn’t make much noise inside the Pavilion, but their numbers were quite large.

Because they had spent some time as a loose cultivator, so far, only a few of these cultivators had shown abnormal behavior.

Besides this.

In the past three years, there were sporadic rumors of evil cultivators haunting outside the Pavilion.

But hardly anyone paid attention.

As long as these evil cultivators do not enter the Pavilion, no one would care.

After Wei Fan shared the changes that occurred in the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion over the past three years, allowing Meng Guan to better understand the Pavilion.

Their attention then shifted onto Meng Guan.

When two friends looked at him simultaneously, Meng Guan naturally understood that it was his turn to speak.

Consequently, He Song and Wei Fan quickly learned of the secrets within the Red Spirit Gold Mine from Meng Guan.

According to Meng Guan.

The Red Spirit Gold Mine was rich in Red Spirit Gold.

After going through a large-scale attack by several Foundation Establishment Masters three years ago, many of the mining loose cultivators were killed or injured. Since then, the mine constantly recruited loose cultivators to mine gold.

Over the three years that he had acted as supervisor in the red spirit gold mine, the depths of the pits became deeper and deeper.

Cultivators often died on the spot because they dug out strange things.

Some cultivators came across other valuable items and were rewarded.

Mostly, the deeper they went, the richer was the Red Spirit Gold.

Fortunately, Meng Guan was a supervisor and didn’t need to go down into the mines, so he naturally avoided countless dangers.

While retelling his experience, Meng Guan couldn’t help but thank He Song and Wei Fan.

Before leaving for the Red Spirit Gold Mine, only He Song and Wei Fan had advised him against it.

Wei Fan, especially, had done him a great kindness by informing him in advance. If it were not for Wei Fan’s timely information, he would not have become a supervisor. If he had gone to mine gold, he might have already been dead by now.

He had stated before, three years ago, that he wanted to thank both of them properly when he returned..
