83 Time passes very fast (3)

[Note: This chapter is not intended to offend anyone, any resemblance to reality is mere coincidence.]

The Elder added: "Remember to get your monthly pill distribution", before disappearing from the crowd.

It was the beginning of the month, and the sect gives each disciple 30 middle-grade body refining pills, suitable amount thing since every pill on the market is worth 10 gold coins. In total there would be 300 gold coins each month per disciple spent, and the sun sect have tens of thousands of disciples. So you could see how wealthy this sect are.

There was a boy 11 years old who was among the crowd he was very composed and glancing a sweet girl of the same age talking to her group of friends.

The sun sect had a group practice every beginning of the month among all the external disciples of the sect. In the sects among the external disciples, they are grouped by age, from 9 to 14, 15 to 19, and 20 onwards.

Without noticing, two other children of similar age went greeted him and said: "Taylor, let's go and claim our monthly payment".

The other boys looked at where he was looking and said: "Taylor, She's the daughter of the Sect Master, We're from different worlds. You better not get your hopes up".

"I'm a prince"

Hearing that response, the child began to point to other children: "If you are, but also that one… that one… and that one, I think I forgot to point also that one".

Seeing that Taylor couldn't help but sigh and started walking: "Let's go claim the monthly payment."

This group of children was nothing less than the first prince of the Alba kingdom, Taylor Alba and his two cousins, Roger Keer, Nick Keer.

About a year ago they passed the test to join the Sun sect, in that year thanks to the resources they would have never had in the Alba kingdom soared their cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds. Taylor was at 7 levels of body refining while his cousins had just entered the level 6, this would be astonishing in desolate areas but here in a mortal country it was common, Taylor was a little above average while his cousins were average.

They managed to claim their monthly pills distribution and went to a city a few miles from the sect called "Sun City". Among the external disciples, there were two classes, those who were in Body refining and those who were in Gathering qi.

Those who were in Body refining would not have a residence within the sect, they could only live without paying taxes five years with their families in Sun city, After paying taxes, the three children went to their home in the city.

As disciples of the sect, they would be provided a simple housing and if they wanted better housing they would have to pay for it themselves, and with a large number of people living in Sun City, the price of housing is not cheap.

Currently, they lived in a simple apartment tower, without many luxuries as the three families live in the same apartments on the same floor. The three needed to run for an hour before they could reach their home in the city.

The three said goodbye and separated to their homes, Taylor entered his apartment and said: "Mother, I'm home".

Hearing that, a beautiful voice replied coming from the kitchen and said: "Welcome, how was it?. Nobody intimidated you, right?"

"I'm fine mother, you can calm down", So Taylor reached out the thirty pills in his hand, The sect said nothing about intimidating someone like him, but still the disciples wouldn't do it, That was because they would lose their face if they did so, If it was someone of the same age would be fine but in his age group would be rare to beat him because almost all children are at level 7 body refining.

In these passing years, his life has had changed, his mother was separated from his father. She was no longer the all-powerful queen, besides that his cultivation was widespread here, So she had no choice but to change her attitude and become a housewife, within his family all men worked as hunters from his great-grandfather to his uncles, with this they could reach the end of the month and live a comfortable life. But if you talked about farming resources they could only depend on the sect, as his great-grandfather's savings almost ran out.

Watching her mother cooking, he walked slowly toward the window of his apartment, was apartment was on 456 level of 1000, it could accommodate almost half a million families as each floor had 500 identical apartments. And in this city, there were more than 100 similar towers. They were literally skyscrapers.

In his native land, the Alba Kingdom, the capital would have a few tens of millions of inhabitants but here they are countless, as not only do the families of disciples live but also ordinary people of the republic. In the estimation of this city, there may be about 180 million inhabitants. And this was not the capital city they are just one of the many cities in the republic.

Besides that, the apartment is very sturdy as blows of a cultivator in body refining are insignificant, they were like ordinary people hitting a steel bar.

Taylor regularly muttered "It's like another world", comparing it to his homeland.

These apartments are magical, there is everything if my mother wanted to cook just had to go to the kitchen and turn on the stove, Water ..., turn the faucet, Bathe, There is a shower that has with options to change the temperature. "Many call his native land "Desolate" full of "Savages"," Taylor recalled.

"Taylor should take a shower, you are very sweaty and dinner is almost ready," said Isabella calmly.

Seeing how his mother, the former queen, spoke to him as if she was an ordinary housewife, she sighed: "Yes, mother".

When he finished saying that, he couldn't help but think, "Where did my arrogance go to?"

Before he was an arrogant prince who believed everyone below him but now if he listed all the "arrogant princes who believed everyone below him" in the republic, perhaps he would exceed the thousands or never end.

So he went to his room, "I'm just an ordinary person here...", kept the pills and went to take a shower while he thought of a pretty girl who every time he saw her made his heart jump.

"Ahhh", he let out a sigh, this city is too peaceful, It was too close to the Sun Sect and no one dared to disrespect it, Of course there were great clans and young masters but he could never be in the same places as them, Since each of the places they visited was for rich people. Its something he could not afford. All the time it was going to the sect or staying at home while occasionally going out with his whole family to eat at a cheap restaurant.

"Is the life I wanted?" his whole family changed no one was arrogant or dominant, but became average people with no aspirations, working day by day to spend the month, putting their hopes in the younger generation.

"This was not what I envision as a child," As he was the child he had always dreamed of greatness, exploring the continent as he grew stronger and stronger by meeting arrogant young masters and defeating them while conquering unparalleled beauties and ascending to immortality. But his life ended like this, being one of the many.

Finished his shower he put on a new set of clean clothes and went to the table to have dinner with his mother. While he was waiting for his grandfather and great-grandfather to return from work.
