Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 935: Chapter 575: Attack—The Rampaging Insect Demon! (Double Chapter)

”Young master, why do you suddenly want me to settle down...” On the carriage, Song Ping’an murmured to himself.

All these years, he had always worked by Song Changming’s side. Since Song Changming never planned to settle down himself, Song Ping’an never had such thoughts either.

Whether or not to leave a legacy, as someone who grew up as an orphan, he didn’t care much about it.

In his heart, his young master was his only family.

It wasn’t until today when Song Changming mentioned it that he considered it even slightly.

But then he shook his head, not particularly yearning for a life of marriage and children.

After all, his young master just mentioned it casually without any intention to force him to settle down.

This matter, he thought, could be discussed later.

Just as Song Ping’an was thinking this, a voice from outside the carriage came through.

”Lord Song, Steward Li has sent a message saying that a team from Feng Province has brought back a lot of Broken Sun Gold from Yan Province!”

”How much?” Song Ping’an’s thoughts were interrupted, but upon hearing Broken Sun Gold, he became energized.

This was currently the most urgently needed important cultivation material for his young master. Regardless of the source, regardless of the price, he had to purchase it all.

”That expedition team temporarily sent Steward Li fifty pounds of Broken Sun Gold, of excellent quality, and said they have over ten thousand pounds more!”

Upon hearing this number, Song Ping’an’s face showed signs of joy.

Broken Sun Gold was extremely rare, especially the high-quality ones.

If over ten thousand pounds of Broken Sun Gold were collected, it would take him a whole year’s effort under normal circumstances just to gather enough.

Let alone...

”If this expedition team really mined such a large amount of Broken Sun Gold, it can only mean they’ve found a large vein of Broken Sun Gold buried in Yan Province...”

Song Ping’an quickly connected the dots.

”What else did Steward Li say about the chamber of commerce?” Song Ping’an continued to inquire.

”The small team is not comfortable bringing the remaining Broken Sun Gold into Yun Province, and wants you to personally go and negotiate with them.” The accompanying voice continued to report.

”Very well, I also need to speak with these people about the origin of this Broken Sun Gold. Tell Steward Li to prepare the money; as long as money can solve the issue, everything will be fine,” Song Ping’an nodded and said.

”Additionally, have the top-ranked Innate Martial Artists in the guild come along with me for the journey.”

After all, it was going out of the Yun Province boundaries; Song Ping’an always had a sense of caution.

Of course, in most cases, no one dared to offend him.

Small powers couldn’t threaten him, and big powers all knew the true backing behind him was Immortal King Song!

Who would dare provoke him?

...

A few days later.

In the land of Feng Province, vast dunes lay stacked, and in the boundless heavens, only a single glaring sun wheel hung high at the horizon, making people’s scalps tingle with its unbearable heat.

A strong wind rose, blowing the endless yellow sand into the sky, falling who knows where.

Several figures flew across the sky, landing one after another on this sandy hill.

The leader was Song Ping’an, personally leading the team. Behind him were some martial artists with much stronger auras, the weakest being Innate Practitioners with seven Martial Veins opened.

In the common world, they would be considered top martial experts.

With this group working together, as long as they didn’t encounter a Grandmaster Level expert, Song Ping’an had nothing to worry about.

Surveying the desolation of the place, Song Ping’an couldn’t help but frown.

”Are we sure this is the right place?” Song Ping’an asked.

A person beside him also furrowed their brow but still nodded, ”No mistake, this is the location they gave.”

”The environment here is so harsh, it doesn’t look like a place to negotiate,” said another accompanying martial artist with a serious demeanor.

”Indeed, could there be deceit involved?”

”Where are they?”

”President, if you ask me, they aren’t sincere at all. We should leave and consider this further to see what they’re really up to,” another advised.

This group were all veterans of the Jianghu, and for an unknown business, their sense of caution was instinctively heightened, regardless of their strength.

Because they were well aware that there are always people beyond people.

Song Ping’an hesitated.

In usual circumstances, he would have turned and left without a second thought.

But this time, it involved the Broken Sun Gold needed by Song Changming, and in such large quantities, he truly didn’t want to miss out.

And just as he was hesitating, several blurred figures began to appear from the sweeping yellow sands, emerging into their view.

”They’re here!” an Innate Martial Artist promptly warned.

The remaining people all reached for their weapons. Thanks to the wealth of the chamber, these guest martial artists and honored guests could all be equipped with rare and powerful Spiritual Soldiers as weapons.

This was something rarely seen among ordinary Innate Martial Artists.

It was precisely because Song Ping’an treated them well that they were willing to follow him.

Song Changming looked over and saw five or six people draped in dust-proof coats, each towering in stature, at least over two meters and fifty centimeters tall.

Of course, there were tall people among martial artists; being over two and a half meters wasn’t uncommon among the Human Race.

”Who is Song Ping’an?” a somewhat sharp and unusual voice called out, carried by the fierce wind into their ears.

Song Ping’an stepped forward directly, ”I am. How may I address you?”

”I hear you have a close relationship with the Human King?” The newcomer did not answer Song Ping’an but continued to approach while asking another question.

Hearing this, Song Ping’an’s gaze darkened instantly.

The fact that his backing was the Human King, Song Changming, wasn’t a secret. However, he rarely flaunted this flag openly, so much so that even many within the chamber weren’t aware of his connection to Human King Song Changming.
