Chapter 237 - 237: Old Friends and Parting (2)



Shopkeeper Ding knew where Shen Ping used to live. Upon hearing the news, he investigated carefully, so it was not difficult to guess that it was Shen Ping. “Looks like we won’t be here for long.”

“If you want to stay for a few more days, I’ll go out and tell Shopkeeper Ding.”

“That won’t be necessary.” Shen Ping stood at the corner of the wooden stairs and looked back at the skylight, then at the main room and quiet room. Memories of living here for seven years surfaced in his mind, but there was no nostalgia in his eyes, only calmness.

The past was gone. There was no point in remembering.

“Let’s go! He looked away. Without hesitation, he turned and walked down the stairs. His wife and concubines smiled and followed closely behind. There was no reluctance in their eyes. It was best if this memory stayed in their hearts.

Shen Ping greeted the other elders, deacons, and many guest elders in the hall before arriving at the room in the backyard of the True Treasure Pavilion. Shopkeeper Ding was already waiting here. When he saw Shen Ping, he quickly stood up and greeted respectfully, “Senior Shen.”

After the Foundation Establishment banquet, the two of them had not seen each other for nearly seven years.

Although there were messages and letters exchanged during this period, the world was unpredictable. The huge difference in status and strength made their relationship no longer as before.

However, Shen Ping still remembered the Foundation Establishment resources that Shopkeeper Ding had once given him. Although those resources were nothing to him, he had always remembered this friendship.

At this moment, they met again at the station of the True Treasure Pavilion that they had known in the past. He could not help but feel a little close to him.

“Shopkeeper Ding, there’s no need to be so distant. With our relationship, it’s too polite to call me that.” Shen Ping smiled gently.

Shopkeeper Ding’s expression relaxed. He sat on the chair again and looked at Shen Ping, who was wearing a long robe with embroidered patterns. He stroked his beard and sighed. “Talisman Master Shen, it’s been a few years since the Foundation Establishment banquet. I didn’t expect you to be a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, but I’m still in the same place!”

His words came from the bottom of his heart. Cultivation was not easy. It was even more difficult after Foundation Establishment.

Even with the backing of the True Treasure Pavilion, a top faction that spanned the five continents and four seas, they only had a few more opportunities than other rogue cultivators and sect disciples. If they wanted to increase their cultivation, they had to have contributions.

Shopkeeper Ding had built his foundation before he was sixty. His spiritual root aptitude was really ordinary. In addition, he did not have any skills in Pill, Talisman, Weapon, and Array. He could only rely on his connections to become the shopkeeper of the branch. If he wanted to continue advancing, he could only rely on the accumulation of time to earn contribution points.

In fact, there were countless cultivators like Shopkeeper Ding in the cultivation world. Their cultivation speed was the normal cultivation state. In ten or twenty years, they could advance to the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment realm. In sixty years, they could advance to the late stage of the Foundation Establishment realm. They were considered relatively outstanding Foundation Establishment cultivators.

In less than ten years, Shen Ping had advanced from the Foundation Establishment realm to the late-stage Foundation Establishment realm. Such speed could be considered top-notch in the Zhongsheng Continent where the cultivation environment was good.

However, sighing was one thing.

Shopkeeper Ding only had heartfelt envy in his eyes and no other emotions. This was because he knew that the moment Shen Ping became a special-class guest elder, his future was limitless. His current cultivation and strength completely proved this.

“Shopkeeper Ding, although there are priorities in cultivation, as long as you believe in yourself and keep stepping forward, 1 believe that there will definitely be a scenery that belongs to you on the longevity path.” Shen Ping was sincere.

There was no lack of geniuses in the cultivation world. However, how many people could reach the top in the end? This longevity path had buried too many peerless skeletons. If cultivation speed could decide longevity, then the future generation would have long been left far behind by the geniuses in the past.

Shopkeeper Ding was stunned. Then, he stood up and bowed seriously. “I understand what you mean, Talisman Master Shen!”

The two of them started chatting. Most of them were about the recent situation in Cloud Mountain Parlour. After a few minutes, Shen Ping hesitated for a moment and asked, “Shopkeeper Ding, I see that the Spring Embroidery Pavilion is still in the square. 1 wonder where the former Shopkeeper Chen and Fellow Daoist Chen behind him are now?”

This time, he returned to Cloud Mountain Parlour. Other than fulfilling Bai Yuying’s wish, he also wanted to meet those old friends.

Shopkeeper Ding shook his head and said, “Shopkeeper Chen from the Spring Embroidery Pavilion has long died. As for Fellow Daoist Chen, she moved back to Cloud Mountain Parlour during the battle between the righteous and demonic sects. Now, she has been cultivating in the spirit vein cave abode of the branch sect and occasionally takes care of her family’s matters. 1 even saw her on the third floor a while ago. If Talisman Master Shen wants to see her, 1 can send a message to her.”

He got to know Chen Shurong at Shen Ping’s Foundation Establishment Banquet. They had some connections. Especially after returning to Cloud Mountain Parlour’s True Treasure Pavilion, the two of them interacted more. That was why Shopkeeper Ding knew about the past situation of the Spring Embroidery Pavilion.

Shen Ping nodded. “Thank you, Shopkeeper Ding.”

At three in the afternoon in the backyard of the Spring Embroidery Pavilion. The old pagoda tree, whose branches and leaves were so lush that they could almost cover half of the small courtyard, was no longer there. The courtyard suddenly seemed a little empty.

When Shen Ping walked in, he looked at the old pagoda tree and could not help but sigh. To be honest, Shopkeeper Chen was the first late-stage Qi Refinement cultivator he had befriended at Cloud Mountain Parlour. Although the two of them were involved in benefits, their relationship was not shallow.

It was a pity that fate made fools of people.

A beautiful figure walked out of the door. She was wearing a loose embroidered white robe, and the curves in front of her waist were slightly magnificent. She walked to Shen Ping, who was standing beside the old pagoda tree, and said softly, “Talisman Master Shen, Shurong was in the wrong back then.” “Cultivators know their own warmth and coldness.” Shen Ping replied indifferently and turned to look at Chen Shurong. “I’m not meeting you to reminisce about the past, but there are some things I want to understand..”
