Chapter 4342 – Void Auction

“Shopkeeper Tong!” A voice reached Shopkeeper Tong, who turned his head to look. He smiled slightly and cupped his fist in return when he recognized it was an acquaintance, “Shopkeeper Jin!”

Shopkeeper Jin was also an elderly man. Both he and Shopkeeper Tong were Second-Order Open Heaven Realm Masters, and were both unfortunate cultivators. They had always been at the bottom of the 3,000 Worlds, struggling and striving for every small profit, exerting themselves for a mere dozen Open Heaven Pills.

But now, both of them looked radiant, beaming and buoyant in spirits. If Shopkeeper Tong could see the bright future of Void Star City, how could Shopkeeper Jin not see it too? Now, all they needed to do was wait for the popularity of Void Star City to rise before getting back to work.

“What is it, Shopkeeper Jin?” Shopkeeper Tong asked while wondering, [This old fox always only appears when there is something that could benefit him.]

Both of them had been doing business in the Star City and were fond of each other’s character after having dealt with each other on numerous occasions.

Shopkeeper Jin chuckled, “This Jin is here to congratulate Shopkeeper Tong.”

Shopkeeper Tong snickered in response, “What is there to congratulate?”

Shopkeeper Jin replied, “Void Land’s doing something big, and the Star City is going to be promising in the future. As part of the group who stayed behind, we will naturally be the first to reap the benefits. Isn’t this something worth congratulating?”

“Congratulations to you too then. Didn’t Shopkeeper Jin stay behind as well?”

Shopkeeper Jin sighed, “En, I was forced to stay, but I didn’t expect it to be a blessing in disguise. When Shopkeeper Sun and the others find out, they will probably rot in regret.”

The mentioned Shopkeeper Sun was one of the shopkeepers who escaped from the Star City as soon as the situation in Void Land deteriorated. It was truly expected that such a drastic change in circumstances would happen in Void Territory.

“What’s meant to be will be, it can’t be forced if it’s not.” Shopkeeper Tong chuckled.

Shopkeeper Jin pointed to the bustling construction activity in the Star City in front of them, “Shopkeeper Tong, this Jin probed Senior Chen earlier. The remaining shopkeepers like you and I can get a new shop lot at our original site. On top of that, we’re not required to pay rent. In other words, the shops will be yours and mine in the future, and no one can take them away.”

Shopkeeper Tong was overjoyed when he heard this, “Is this really true?”

Shopkeeper Jin nodded, “It’s absolutely true. This is what Sir Chen Tian Fei said.”
