Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 722 Famous on a Fifth-Rank Planet in the Starry Sky (Please Subscribe and Vote)

"The planet where the previous host resided was the only economic zone in this star system; there was no other choice!"

The system tried to speak using its mechanical card-reading method, but sensing that Su Ping was truly unwilling to leave, its tone became increasingly rude: "Now that this planet has jumped to another star system, it's at the bottom of the economic zone in that system. As a host who wants to open a shop and make money, how can you stoop so low here?"

"Host, please raise your awareness and have the earnestness that a boss and shop owner should have regarding making money!"

Su Ping rolled her eyes at the sound of it.

Gan!

They've even come to talk about exploitation with such righteous indignation.

Who said I wanted to make money? I just want to be a couch potato, okay!

Money... enough is enough. I only made money because you forced me to...

Despite his words, Su Ping knew that making money was indeed important. After all, money is useful everywhere, and even more so with the system! If he had enough energy before the beast tide broke out, he could have upgraded the Chaos Spirit Pool to level 5, and a level 5 Chaos Spirit Pool has a small probability of giving birth to a Starry Sky Pet Beast!

As long as you have enough energy, you can always smash one out!

Who says spending money can't change your fate? That's because you haven't spent enough, young man...

"It's good that you know."

Clearly, the system had once again glimpsed Su Ping's thoughts.

Su Ping rolled his eyes and said, "Although Blue Star's economy isn't doing well right now, it can develop! I think Blue Star has potential. Nie Huofeng said before that if it connects with this star system, Blue Star will quickly attract a lot of people and become a tourist destination! The influx of people will drive the economy, and it will inevitably enter a period of economic boom..."

That's your problem.

The system showed no interest in Su Ping's long-winded explanation and said in a tone of disdain, "All I know is that this planet is currently the lowest-ranking economy in the star system. If you can raise the economy of this planet to the third tier of the star system within 72 hours, you won't need to relocate."

Su Ping was speechless.

This guy is completely unreasonable.

That makes sense. If oil and salt got into this system, wouldn't it rust and its brain go scramble?

"I suspect you're using this as an excuse to swear," the system said coldly.

"Is there even a doubt about that?"

"First warning!"

"No, what I mean is, I absolutely did not have such an intention. How could you doubt me?"

The system scoffed.

Joking aside, Su Ping sighed and asked, "What kind of scale are you referring to as a third-tier economic zone? Given Earth's current economic strength, how much are we still lacking?"

"Currently, this planet is a fifth-class economic zone, which is also the lowest level. It's at least 1008 times worse than a third-class zone," the system said indifferently.

"..."

Su Ping was speechless. Why didn't you say another 6?

It's still not good enough...

However, a difference of over a thousand times... Su Ping fell silent.

This means that his relocation is almost a certainty.

The thought of saying goodbye to Blue Star brought many faces to his mind, making him feel a little unsettled. He gazed at the scenery outside the shop, lost in thought.

Life is like a conveyor belt, always rolling forward. In this process, you will constantly meet new people and say goodbye to old friends...

Separation is a normal part of life.

Su Ping sat alone for a long time, then sighed deeply.

If he were to leave, he would have to deal with the situation on Blue Star as soon as possible, and ideally, he could also ascertain whether the numerous spaceships outside the atmosphere would indeed exercise restraint against Blue Star, as Nie Huofeng had suggested. After all, if a conflict were to break out, it would be the people of Blue Star who would suffer.

After leaving the shop, Su Ping found Nie Huofeng, who was at the intelligence headquarters, directing some people to do things.

"Brother Su? You've come at the right time. We're trying to contact people outside. Also, you're now the lord of our Blue Star. In a moment, we'll need to register your divine soul and star power aura on the Lord Star Token. That way, you'll be the nominal and true lord of Blue Star. From now on, a portion of the taxes and economic revenue generated by Blue Star will be allocated to your personal account according to federal law."

As soon as he saw Su Ping, Nie Huofeng quickly spoke.

He didn't put on any airs in front of Su Ping, addressing him directly as "Brother Su".

After all... Su Ping had killed the Lord of the Abyss, and his combat power was stronger than his. Although his cultivation was only legendary, combat power was everything.

Moreover, it is precisely because of his legendary cultivation level that he possesses such terrifying combat power, which makes Nie Huofeng value him even more.

"Lord's Star Token?"

Su Ping raised an eyebrow; he had never heard of it.

"This is it." Nie Huofeng flipped his hand and took out a dazzling green crystal token. The token emitted a brilliant light, like a secret treasure, and was extremely eye-catching.

"This is a Lord's Star Decree issued by the Federation to legitimate planets. It is extremely important and must not be desecrated or destroyed. Even a Star Realm expert who destroys this Lord's Star Decree will be severely punished by the Federation!"

Nie Huofeng coughed lightly, his tone suddenly becoming slightly awkward, and said, "Although our Blue Star is the origin star, the resources of the star system we are in are scarce, the economy is weak, the routes to and from other star systems are extremely long, and trade lines cannot be established. Over time, we can only produce and consume our own products, and we are about to become a primitive native planet."

Within the Federation, we are classified as a fifth-tier planet. This classification is determined by a combination of factors, including the planet's economy and the number of powerful individuals registered under its name.

He looked out the skylight at the numerous spaceships in the atmosphere and said:

"Now that we're in this star system, we can definitely leverage its economy to boost our Blue Star's economy. If we can attract some more powerful individuals, and have ten Star Realm experts willing to register under our Blue Star's name, then we can submit an application for a fourth-class planet!"

At this point, a hint of regret suddenly appeared in his eyes. He said, "If I could become a Star Lord, I could single-handedly elevate Blue Star to a fourth-class star. With a little more effort and by making some friends in the Star Realm, I could even elevate it to a third-class planet..."

Su Ping blinked.

Nie Huofeng's words were so informative that he was still a little overwhelmed.

"What's the difference between a fifth-class planet and a fourth-class planet?" Su Ping asked.

Nie Huofeng paused for a moment, then, seeing Su Ping's puzzled expression, immediately smiled and said:

"Of course there is a difference, and the difference is huge!"

For example, of the economy generated by a fifth-class planet, 1% goes into your pocket, while the remaining 50% needs to be handed over to the Federation!

For fourth-tier planets, you get a 5% share, only needing to hand over 40%. The remaining 55% of the economy can be used for planet construction, or under the guise of construction for other purposes. In short, you have more resources at your disposal!

"This money... is just one of the benefits."

"If we're a fourth-class planet, we can request reinforcements from the Federation in times of crisis, like during the previous Abyss Beast Tide..." At this point, Nie Huofeng's expression changed slightly, but he quickly continued, "If we were a fourth-class planet and encountered a planet-destroying disaster like this, we could request reinforcements from the Federation's powerful members; they could solve it with a flick of their wrist!"

"In addition, fourth-class planets also have quotas for star field garrison support, which means inviting other powerful individuals to their planet. Without becoming citizens of our planet, they can enjoy the benefits of our planet and also receive the benefits of their original planet. Similarly, these support experts are also required to do things for us in times of crisis or when needed."

In short, there are many benefits in all aspects, and you will gradually understand them in the future.

Su Ping seemed to understand, but only vaguely grasped some of it.

In general, improving Earth's economy and increasing the number of strong individuals are the most important things; as long as these two aspects increase, there will be many benefits.

The exact amount will be known in due time.

However, thinking that he was about to leave, Su Ping looked at the Lord Star Token in Nie Huofeng's hand and shook his head, saying, "It seems that I will not be able to become a lord."

Nie Huofeng was taken aback and asked, "Why?"

"I'll be leaving Blue Star soon for somewhere else." Su Ping shook his head and said, "As a lord, it's not right for you to be away from Blue Star. Either you continue being the lord, or you can give the position to someone else."

Nie Huofeng was stunned. "You're leaving?"

The staff in the intelligence room also stopped what they were doing and turned to look at Su Ping in astonishment.

In this great battle, everyone survived thanks to Su Ping and his group. At this moment, in everyone's eyes, Su Ping is the savior, the god of Blue Star!

He is also the only lord recognized by all the people of Earth!

"That's right, I'm going somewhere else." Su Ping nodded, already prepared for everyone's reaction.

Nie Huofeng opened his mouth slightly, as if to say something, but suddenly realized that with Su Ping's talent, the current conditions on Blue Star were indeed not enough to confine Su Ping. He could develop better elsewhere.

If one can cultivate to the Star Lord realm, what does the position of a mere planet lord matter?

He looked at Su Ping, his eyes filled with admiration and admiration.

It takes immense courage to relinquish supreme power over a planet!

Su Ping's determination to abandon all of this and wholeheartedly pursue the path of cultivation moved him deeply!

A true strong person should have such a heart for seeking the Dao... If one can be distracted by other trivial matters, how can one sprint step by step on the path to ultimate strength?!

Thinking about this, he suddenly realized that he had been taking these things too seriously!

Including his scheme against the Lord of the Abyss, which was to enslave him as his battle pet, and the sealing of Blue Star's star power for a thousand years, all in order to become the star lord in one fell swoop and thus drag Blue Star directly from a fifth-class planet to a third-class planet!

At that time, as the lord of Blue Star, he would be considered a person of considerable standing in the Federation, a place teeming with powerful individuals.

But... what do these things amount to in the face of true cultivation?

Face, reputation, world's praise...

They are all just external possessions!

All his calculations ultimately came to naught, benefiting Su Ping instead, and nearly causing the complete extinction of humanity on Earth!

If he hadn't made such a calculation a thousand years ago, and had completely leveled the abyss, then after cultivating to the Starry Sky Realm, he would have abandoned Blue Star and gone to explore the Federation alone, and perhaps he would have already grown to a higher level by now.

Bindings, burdens... A strong person should be alone, traversing the universe, following the Dao, and pursuing the path to godhood!

Thinking of this, Nie Huofeng felt as if the clouds before his eyes had parted to reveal the bright moon.

"Thank you, Brother Su!" Nie Huofeng suddenly clasped his hands in thanks and said solemnly to Su Ping.

Su Ping: "???"

I was just saying it casually, and you actually agreed to become a lord?

You've probably been eyeing this for a while now!

His thieving intentions have finally been exposed!

"Since you're willing, then the position of lord is yours." Su Ping didn't bother to think too much. Although Nie Huofeng was sometimes confused, he still cared about the people of Blue Star. As for being the lord... he was barely qualified, since there were no other suitable candidates at the moment.

Besides being dedicated, a lord also needs to have high cultivation. Ye Wuxiu and the others have too low cultivation and have been stationed in the abyss for many years. If they were to become lords, they would probably be completely clueless and know nothing.

Upon hearing Su Ping's words, Nie Huofeng was taken aback, immediately realizing that Su Ping had misunderstood. He waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "Brother Su, you've misunderstood. I don't want to be the lord. I think you're more suited to the position. I also want to learn from you, pursue a higher path, strive to become a star lord as soon as possible, and perhaps even be deified in the future!"

"?"

Su Ping was stunned.

What the hell!

So you're saying you're going to run away too?

Who will take care of Earth then?!

Besides, I had no choice but to run away; I needed to make money!

Why are you pursuing some kind of path, or bestowing any kind of godhood upon yourself? Can't you just stay home and guard your home properly?

What's the point of being a god if we lose the high ground? Just for your own enjoyment?!

Su Ping was very displeased, and his face turned cold. He said, "Brother Nie, you're the one who caused this mess on Blue Star. How can you run away? Even if you want to leave, you have to wait until Blue Star stabilizes. Besides, if you make me the lord, I'm the one who has to leave immediately. I have reasons why I have to leave!"

Nie Huofeng was somewhat bewildered when he saw Su Ping suddenly turn hostile. "What did I say wrong? Wasn't I just flattering you? Why are you getting angry with me?"

"Well, Brother Su, don't worry. I'm not leaving right now. After all, I don't know which star system we've jumped to yet; we're still communicating. Besides, this mess is indeed my fault, and I'll take responsibility. However, the position of lord is truly yours!"

Nie Huofeng smiled wryly, "Now everyone on Blue Star only recognizes you as their lord! Even if you want to leave, it's fine. You can leave other people to take care of this place. Anyway, you can just wait to count the money every month. If something really big happens and you need to step in personally, then you can come back."

"This will work?" Su Ping asked, bewildered. "As the lord, shouldn't I be here overseeing things?"

Nie Huofeng shook his head repeatedly and said, "Some star-level experts have purchased several planets and are the lords of several planets. How can they possibly oversee everything? It's only in major matters that they need your approval that they need to step in. But if you're not too far away, you can always take a spaceship back to handle it. These are all flexible options."

Su Ping slapped his forehead, dumbfounded.

It really is!

The system only told him to move his shop to a third-class economic zone in the star system; it didn't say he couldn't come back!

Since it's the same galaxy, can't he just come back anytime by taking a spaceship?

"Oh well."

Thinking of all this, Su Ping immediately abandoned the idea of ​​handing over the lordship. Anyway, he could sit back and collect money. Although the money couldn't be converted into shop energy, now that he was connected with the Federation, he would probably have to spend money in many places outside. Of course, he would be happier if the money went into his own pocket!

Seeing that Su Ping finally stopped making excuses, Nie Huofeng breathed a sigh of relief, and the intelligence personnel around him also felt at ease. As long as Su Ping was still there, they felt at ease.

Suddenly, a beeping sound rang out, and someone exclaimed, "My lord, we have news! We've just cracked their communications and received their signal!"

Su Ping and Nie Huofeng were both taken aback and quickly looked over.

With Nie Huofeng's permission, the intelligence officer immediately broadcast the signal, translating it into the language of Earth. It was a middle-aged man with a rather deep voice: "Is anyone there? Please reply if you receive this. We are the Star Defense Force of the fourth-class planet Miso in the Sylvie system. We mean no harm..."

"The Sylvie Galaxy?" Nie Huofeng was stunned when he heard this.

Su Ping asked, "How do you know about this star system?"

Nie Huofeng's expression became excited. He nodded and said, "What a coincidence! You know, over the years, our Blue Star has sent some of its top geniuses out of Blue Star to study in the Federation, and the places they've been sent to are the top universities in this Sylvie Star System!"

Su Ping was stunned for a moment, then immediately thought of the Federation visitors who had come to Blue Star not long ago.

However, he remembered that the message sent back by the Peak Tower was that there were Star Realm experts among the other side, but... they did not offer any assistance to Blue Star!

Thinking of this, his expression turned cold.

"Now that we've arrived in the Sylvie system, it will be much easier to send our talents abroad for further studies! Moreover, it will be even easier for those talents who have gone abroad to return. We've sent many geniuses abroad over the years, and they'll definitely be very excited if they know that our planet has jumped to this point!" Nie Huofeng said, becoming more and more excited as he spoke.

Su Ping frowned upon hearing this and said, "You said you sent out quite a few geniuses, so why send Blue Star's geniuses here? Just to make them reach the Starry Sky Realm?"

Nie Huofeng immediately nodded and said, "Of course! On Blue Star, it's extremely difficult to reach the Starry Sky Realm! The concentration of star energy on Blue Star is like this; the higher the cultivation level, the higher the requirement for star energy concentration. If the star energy is very weak, you need to refine it yourself after absorbing it, and then compress it... all of this takes time!"

"Without reaching the Starry Sky Realm, how can one attain such a long lifespan? Even legendary figures in the Heavenly Fate Realm, after living for a thousand years, experience a decline in life and enter old age. Their ability to improve cultivation and their spiritual insights will greatly diminish. Simply put, after living for a thousand years, if they don't break through, it will be very difficult for their cultivation to advance further, unless they encounter an extraordinary opportunity!"

Su Ping remained silent for a moment. He was aware of this, after all, he spent all his time with Joanna, and apart from chatting and joking, they did talk about some useful things.

In the past thousand years, only two Star Realm experts have emerged on Blue Star: Nie Huofeng and the Lord of the Abyss. The probability of such an emergence is extremely low.

"So, over all these years, have any geniuses returned?" Su Ping asked.

Nie Huofeng was taken aback, his expression turning slightly grim. He said, "Returning to Blue Star from here is a long journey. Without reaching the Starry Sky Realm, how can we possibly return..."

"So, all those geniuses sent over the years haven't been able to reach the Starry Sky Realm?" Su Ping raised an eyebrow, and seeing Nie Huofeng's expression, he immediately understood something.

Having seen a wider world, are you no longer willing to retreat to a small corner?

Don't forget, that's home...

"People's hearts can change. There are so many geniuses. If you don't send them out, but instead nurture and teach a few, at least many of them will emerge who are more promising than your disciple!" Su Ping said coldly.

Nie Huofeng remained silent. He had thought about this before, which is why the geniuses he sent out later were all carefully selected. They either had extremely positive values ​​and knew how to repay kindness, or they had family members on Earth that they could not abandon.

But... no one came back.

"Perhaps." Nie Huofeng didn't refute Su Ping's words. He shook his head slightly and said, "Perhaps it's for another reason. The competitive environment here might be even more brutal, and they failed in the competition..."

Su Ping's gaze flickered slightly; it was indeed a possibility.

However, he refused to believe that none of the geniuses produced over the past thousand years had succeeded.

Seeing Nie Huofeng's expression, Su Ping didn't say anything more directly. Hitting him wouldn't do him any good, and since things had come to this point, what was the point of saying more?

Moreover, he didn't know the specific reason. In any case, since the star system in front of them was one that Nie Huofeng knew a little about, it was bound to be beneficial to them.
