"The host's planet is the only economic zone in this galaxy. You don't have a choice!"
The system was still trying to explain, but it seemed to have sensed that Su Ping really didn't want to leave, so it became impolite. "Now that this planet has jumped to another galaxy, it's at the bottom of the economic zone in this galaxy. As a host who wants to make money, how can you degrade yourself here?
"Host, please raise your awareness and have the awareness of making money as a boss and shopkeeper!"
Su Ping rolled his eyes.
Damn!
The system sounded so righteous about exploitation.
Who says I want to make money? I just want to be a salted fish, alright?
As long as I have enough money. I'm making money because you're forcing me to …
That being said, Su Ping knew that making money was indeed important. After all, money could be used anywhere, and it was even more useful for the system! If he had enough energy before the beast strike, he would have been able to upgrade the Chaos Spirit Pool to level 5. A level 5 Chaos Spirit Pool had a small chance of breeding Astral Pets!
As long as he had enough energy, he would be able to create one!
Who said that spending money couldn't change one's fate? That's because you haven't spent enough, young man …
"I'm glad you know that."
Obviously, the system had peeped into Su Ping's mind again.
Su Ping rolled his eyes and said, "Blue Star isn't doing well right now, but it can still develop! I think Blue Star has potential. Nie Huofeng said that Blue Star will attract a lot of people if it's connected to this galaxy. It will become a tourist attraction! The population will drive the economy, and it will definitely enter a period of economic growth … "
"That's your business."
The system didn't seem interested in Su Ping's long speech at all. It said in a disdainful tone, "I only know that this planet is at the bottom of the economic zone in this galaxy. If you can upgrade the planet's economy to level 3 in 72 hours, you won't have to relocate."
Su Ping was rendered speechless.
The system was really stubborn.
It did make sense. Wouldn't the system's brain become rusty if it were to do that?
"I suspect that you're taking the opportunity to swear," said the system coldly.
"Do you really need to suspect that?"
"First warning!"
"Don't. I mean, I don't have such intentions. How can you doubt me?"
The system snorted coldly.
Joking aside, Su Ping sighed and asked, "What's the scale of the third-class economic zone you mentioned? With Blue Star's current economic strength, how much more do we lack? "
"Currently, this planet is a fifth-class economic zone, which is also the lowest economic zone. Compared to a third-class economic zone, the difference is at least 1,008 times," the System said indifferently.
"…"
Su Ping was speechless. Why don't you say 6 more?
Sure enough, it's not good enough …
However, a thousandfold difference, this … Su Ping fell silent.
This meant that it was almost certain that he would move away.
At the thought of bidding farewell to Blue Star, many faces appeared in his mind, which made him feel a little emotional. Looking at the scenery outside the shop, he was lost in thought.
Life is like a caterpillar that keeps moving forward. In this process, you will constantly meet new people and bid farewell to old friends …
Parting is the norm in life.
Sitting alone for a long time, Su Ping heaved a sigh.
If he were to leave, he had to deal with the things on Blue Star as soon as possible. It would be best if he could confirm if the spaceships outside the atmosphere were really restrained by Blue Star, as Nie Huofeng said. After all, if a conflict were to break out, the people on Blue Star would definitely be at a disadvantage.
After leaving the shop, Su Ping found Nie Huofeng, who was commanding some people in the intelligence headquarters.
"Brother Su? You're just in time. We're trying to contact people outside. Also, you're now the lord of Blue Star. You'll need to register your soul and astral power on the Lord Badge so that you'll be the real lord of Blue Star. In the future, some of the taxes and revenue generated by Blue Star will be transferred to your personal account according to the federal law. "
Nie Huofeng said quickly the moment he saw Su Ping.
He didn't put on airs in front of Su Ping; he simply called him "Brother Su".
After all, Su Ping had slain the Lord of the Deep Caves and was stronger than him. Even though he was only at the Legendary level, combat ability was everything.
Also, Nie Huofeng thought highly of him because of his terrifying combat ability as a Legendary warrior.
"The Lord Badge?"
Su Ping raised his eyebrows, as he had never heard of it before.
"This is it." Nie Huofeng flipped his hand and took out a dazzling green crystal token. The token emitted a dazzling light like a secret treasure, which was extremely eye-catching.
"This is the Lord Badge that the Federation distributes to legal planets. It's very important and cannot be destroyed. Even a Star State expert will be severely punished if they destroy it!"
Nie Huofeng coughed and said awkwardly, "Although the Blue Star is the planet of origin, our solar system lacks resources and has a weak economy. It takes a long time for us to travel to and from other solar systems, and we can't establish any trade routes. We can only produce and sell our own products; we've almost become a primitive planet.
In the Federation, we are classified as a fifth-class planet. This classification is based on the economy of the planet, as well as the number of powerhouses registered under the name of the planet, and other comprehensive elements.
He looked at the spaceships outside the skylight and said, "Now that we're in the solar system, we can finally reach this planet.
"Now that we've arrived in this solar system, we can definitely boost the economy of the Blue Star with the help of the local economy. If we can attract more experts and have ten Star State experts register under the name of the Blue Star, we'll be able to submit the application for a tier-4 planet!"
He suddenly looked regretful as he spoke. "If I become a Star Lord, I'll be able to upgrade the Blue Star to a tier-4 planet on my own. If I work harder and make some Star State friends, the planet can even be upgraded to a tier-3 planet …"
Su Ping blinked.
There was too much information in Nie Huofeng's words. He wasn't used to it yet.
"What's the difference between a tier-5 planet and a tier-4 planet?" asked Su Ping.
Nie Huofeng was stunned for a moment. Seeing the confusion on Su Ping's face, he smiled and said, "Of course.
There's a huge difference, of course!
For example, 1% of the economy of a tier-5 planet will go to you, and the remaining 50% will be handed over to the Federation!
"On a tier-4 planet, you'll get a 5% share and only need to hand over 40%. The remaining 55% can be used to build the planet or do other things in the name of construction. All in all, you'll be able to allocate more resources!
"Money … is just one of the benefits.
"On a tier-4 planet, you can ask for reinforcements from the Federation in times of crisis, such as the beast tides from the Deep Caves …" Nie Huofeng's expression changed as he spoke, but he quickly went on, "If we're a tier-4 planet, we'll be able to ask for reinforcements from the Federation in times of crisis. It'll be a piece of cake!
"In addition, fourth-class planets also have quotas for foreign aid stationed in star fields. That is, they can invite other experts to their planets. Under the condition that they don't become citizens of our planet, they can enjoy the benefits of our planet and also the benefits of their original planet. Similarly, these foreign aid experts also need to help us in times of crisis or when we need them.
All in all, there are a lot of benefits in all aspects. You'll get to know them later. "
Su Ping didn't fully understand, but he had a general idea.
All in all, improving the economy of the Blue Star and increasing the number of experts on the Blue Star were the most important things. There would be a lot of benefits as long as those two aspects were improved.
He would find out the exact benefits later.
However, thinking that he was about to leave, Su Ping looked at the Lord Badge in Nie Huofeng's hand and shook his head. "It seems that I can't be the lord anymore."
Nie Huofeng was briefly stunned. He asked, "Why?"
"I'm leaving Blue Star for other places soon." Su Ping shook his head and said, "It doesn't make sense that you're not in Blue Star as the lord. You can either stay as the lord or give it to someone else."
Nie Huofeng was stunned. "You're leaving?"
The staff in the intelligence room also stopped what they were doing and looked at Su Ping in shock.
They had survived the war because of Su Ping. At this moment, Su Ping was the savior and the god of Blue Star in everybody's eyes!
He was also the only lord that all the Blue Star people recognized!
"That's right. I'm going somewhere else." Su Ping nodded; he was already prepared for their reaction.
Nie Huofeng opened his mouth and was about to say something, but then he realized that given Su Ping's talent and the current conditions of Blue Star, it was true that Su Ping could develop better in other places.
If he could become a Star Lord, being the lord of a planet wouldn't be a big deal.
He looked at Su Ping with admiration in his eyes.
To be able to give up the supreme power of a planet, how much courage did it take!
Nie Huofeng was deeply moved by Su Ping's determination to abandon all that and pursue the path of cultivation!
A true powerhouse should have this kind of heart to pursue the Dao … If he could be tied down by other miscellaneous matters, how could he continue to advance step by step on the path of the strongest?!
Thinking of this, he suddenly realized that he had placed too much importance on these things in the first place!
He had planned to enslave the Lord of the Deep Caves and make it his pet. He had also sealed the Blue Star's astral power for a thousand years, just so that he could become a Star Lord and pull the Blue Star from a tier-5 planet to a tier-3 one!
Then, as the lord of the Blue Star, he would be a famous man in the Federation where all the experts were gathered.
However … What were those things compared to the real path of cultivation?
Face, reputation, and praise …
They were just worldly possessions!
All his plans had been in vain, and Su Ping had taken advantage of him. He had almost wiped out all the human beings on the Blue Star!
If he hadn't planned to wipe out the Deep Caves a thousand years ago, abandoning the Blue Star and exploring the Federation on his own after he reached the Star State, he might have grown to a higher level by then.
Fetters, burdens … Experts should be alone, traverse the universe, follow their Dao hearts, and pursue the path of becoming a god!
Nie Huofeng felt that the clouds in front of his eyes were gone and he was looking at the moon.
Nie Huofeng cupped his hands and said to Su Ping solemnly, "Thank you, Brother Su!"
Su Ping: "???"
I was just saying, and you really agreed to be the lord?
You've been thinking about it for a long time, haven't you?
You've finally exposed yourself!
"If you're willing, I'll leave the lord to you." Su Ping didn't bother to think further. Although Nie Huofeng was sometimes silly, he still cared about the people of the Blue Star. He was more or less qualified to be the lord. After all, he hadn't found any other suitable candidates.
The lord had to be both diligent and strong. Ye Wuxiu and the others were too weak, and they had been stationed in the Deep Caves all the time. They would probably be ignorant if they were to become the lord.
Nie Huofeng was stunned for a moment after hearing what Su Ping said. He immediately realized that Su Ping had misunderstood him. He quickly waved his hands and said, "Brother Su, you misunderstood me. I don't want to be the lord. I think you're more suitable for the position. I want to learn from you and pursue a higher path, so that I can become a Star Lord and even reach the Ascendant State!"
“？”
Su Ping was stunned.
Damn it!
So to speak, you're running away too?
Who's going to take care of the Blue Star then?
Besides, I have to run away because I have to make money!
Why are you pursuing the path of ascension? Why can't you just stay at home?
What's the point of having a pentakill if the highlands are gone?
Su Ping was very angry. He said coldly, "Brother Nie, Blue Star is in this mess because of you. How can you run away? Even if you want to leave, you have to wait until the Blue Star is stabilized. Besides, I'm going to leave as the lord for a reason! "
Nie Huofeng was at a loss to see Su Ping suddenly turn hostile. Did I say anything wrong? Aren't I flattering you? Why are you getting angry at me?
"Well, Brother Su, don't worry. I won't leave now. After all, I still don't know which star system we've jumped to. I'm still in the process of communicating. Besides, this mess was indeed caused by me. I'll take responsibility for it. However, the position of Lord must be yours!"
Nie Huofeng said with a bitter smile, "You're the only lord of the Blue Star right now! It's fine even if you want to leave. You can leave someone else to take care of this place. After all, all you need to do is count your money every month. You can always come back if something big happens and you have to show up in person. "
"Is that possible?" Su Ping was stunned. "Don't I have to oversee this place as the lord?"
Nie Huofeng quickly shook his head and said, "Some Star State experts have bought multiple planets and are the lords of multiple planets. How can you manage them all? You can only show up when something big happens with your approval. However, if you're not far away, you can always come back on a spaceship to deal with it. That's flexible. "
Su Ping slapped his head, dumbfounded.
That's right!
The system only asked him to move the shop to a tier-3 economic zone in this galaxy, but it didn't say that he couldn't come back!
Since they were in the same galaxy, he could always come back on a spaceship, right?
"Fine."
Thinking about that, Su Ping immediately gave up the idea of giving up the lord. After all, he could just sit there and collect money. Although the money couldn't be transformed into energy for the shop, he would still have to spend money in a lot of places in the Federation. Of course, he would be happy to keep the money in his pocket!
Nie Huofeng was relieved to see that Su Ping didn't refuse anymore. The intelligence agents around were also reassured. They would feel safe as long as Su Ping was there.
Suddenly, beeps echoed, and someone exclaimed, "My lord, there's news! We've just cracked their communication and received their signal!"
Both Su Ping and Nie Huofeng were stunned. They quickly looked at the source of the signal.
Receiving Nie Huofeng's permission, the intelligence agent instantly played the signal in the Blue Star language. It was a middle-aged man's voice. "Is anyone there? Please reply. We're from the defense force of Miso, a tier-4 planet in Silvy. We mean you no harm … "
"Silvy?" Nie Huofeng was stunned to hear that.
Su Ping asked, "Why? Do you know this galaxy?"
Nie Huofeng became excited. He nodded and said, "This is truly fate! Fate! Did you know that the Blue Star has been sending the top geniuses out of the Blue Star to study in the Federation? They've been sent to the top universities in Silvy! "
Su Ping was stunned for a moment. He then remembered the visitors from the Federation who had visited the Blue Star not long ago.
However, he remembered that the Tower had sent back a message saying that they had Star State experts, but they didn't help the Blue Star!
His face became cold as he thought about that.
"Now that we're in Silvy, it'll be much more convenient for us to send our talents to study abroad! Also, it'll be easier for the talents who have studied abroad to return. We've sent a lot of geniuses out over the years. They'll be thrilled to learn that our planet has jumped to this place! "Nie Huofeng became more and more excited.
Su Ping frowned and asked, "You said that a lot of geniuses were sent out. Why did you send the geniuses of the Blue Star here? Just so they could reach the Star State? "
Nie Huofeng instantly nodded and said, "Of course! It's very difficult to reach the Star State on the Blue Star! That's just how dense the astral power is on the Blue Star. The higher one's cultivation level is, the higher the requirement for astral power density will be. If the astral power is weak, one will have to refine and compress it after absorbing it … All of that takes time! "
"How can they live so long without reaching the Star State? "A legendary battle pet warrior at the Fate State will begin to decline after a thousand years. They will be in their prime, and their perception of their abilities will be greatly weakened. To put it simply, it will be difficult for them to make any further progress after a thousand years unless they run into a fortuitous encounter!"
Su Ping was silent for a moment. He was aware of that. After all, he had spent a lot of time with Joanna, and they had talked about some useful things.
Nie Huofeng and the Lord of the Deep Caves were the only two Star State geniuses on the Blue Star in the past thousand years; the odds were too low.
"Have any of the geniuses returned after all these years?" asked Su Ping.
Nie Huofeng was stunned for a moment, then said with an awful expression, "It's a long journey back to the Blue Star from here. How can they return without reaching the Star State?"
"So to speak, none of the geniuses sent here over the years reached the Star State?" Su Ping raised his eyebrows and realized something when he saw Nie Huofeng's expression.
Are you unwilling to retreat to your corner after seeing a vaster world?
Don't forget that it's your home …
"People can change. There are so many geniuses out there. If you don't give them away, train them and teach them. At the very least, some of them will be more promising than your disciple!" Su Ping said coldly.
Nie Huofeng was silent. He had thought of that before, so the geniuses sent later were all carefully selected. They were either righteous and grateful, or they had family members on the Blue Star that they couldn't abandon.
But … none of them returned.
"Maybe." Nie Huofeng didn't argue with Su Ping. He shook his head and said, "Maybe it's for another reason. The competition here might be even crueler, and they failed …"
Su Ping's eyes flashed, as that was indeed a possibility.
However, he didn't believe that none of the geniuses sent out in the past thousand years had succeeded.
Seeing Nie Huofeng's expression, Su Ping didn't say anything further, as it wouldn't do him any good to criticize him. What was the point of talking about it now?
Besides, he didn't know the specific reasons. In any case, since they were in a galaxy that Nie Huofeng knew a little about, it would be beneficial for them.
