System's Super Sect-Chapter 650 - 647. Anxiously Seeking Father

The red-clothed woman seemed a bit angry, and once again reprimanded coldly.

"Remember your current status! You’re my slave!"

But hearing this, it seemed there was more meaning beneath the words.

Simultaneously, the words carried a subtle complexity.

Of course, this was only in Wen Ping’s ears.

Besides Wen Ping, no one cared about a strong figure outside Heaven and Earth Lake reprimanding a slave.

Wen Ping felt it wasn’t simple because no master would remind a slave they’re a slave unless they knew them beforehand or shared some entanglement or mysterious connection.

Could they be from the Long Family!

Just after the red-clothed woman scolded, she led people into a luxurious building across the square.

"Wait here."

The red-clothed woman left those Mountain Suppression Realm followers outside, taking only the masked slave inside.

Wen Ping glanced at the plaque of the place the red-clothed woman entered, and quickly turned to ask Zi Ran, "Elder Zi Ran, what place is ’Vast Treasures’?"

Zi Ran explained, "’Vast Treasures’ is one of the top auction houses in Vast City. The items auctioned there are quite precious; ordinary items can’t even make it onto ’Vast Treasures’’ platform."

"You all find a place to stay first, I’ll come find you later." Wen Ping wanted to enter the auction to see if the masked slave was his father.

Zi Ran said, "Sect Leader, don’t you need me to accompany you?"

The Sect Leader just mentioned finding a place to "sharpen the sword before battle."

Now he wants to leave alone again.

Zi Ran was somewhat confused about what her Sect Leader intended to do.

Wen Ping shook his head, "No need, you all go find accommodation first."

"If the Sect Leader can’t find us, head to the Hidden Dragon Sect." Zi Ran left these words and took Huai Ye and the others away.

As their figures disappeared into the crowd, Wen Ping went through the crowd to the entrance of the Vast Treasures Auction House.

Wen Ping glanced at the Mountain Suppression strong figures standing on both sides, his eyes naturally grazing past the character ’Long’ on their clothing. Immediately, the system placed a simplified information of one person before Wen Ping’s eyes.

Long Hao

Gender: Male

Age: 88

Realm: Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression

(From the Five-star Influence Long Family of Heaven-Gazing Gorge...)

"Long Family!"

Wen Ping couldn’t help but shiver.

Fortunately, since he was walking forward, no one saw his trembling.

The Long Family, since Long Ke appeared outside the Immortal Sect, was the influence he had always wanted to connect with. Today he finally saw them at the headquarters of the Hundred Sects Alliance.

It must be said, the Long Family is indeed powerful.

Whether seen from Long Ke or his followers, they all exuded a strong aura.

Even now, just the tip of the iceberg makes them stronger than the current Immortal Sect.

It seems he must help his father gain the Long Family’s recognition, and then help his parents reunite, which, at present, isn’t an easy task. But these are thoughts for later. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Urgently, Wen Ping needs to see that masked slave.

Is he truly his father?

There’s a lot he wants to ask him.

And a lot he wants to say.

Just as he was about to step inside the auction house, a well-dressed, intellectual maid came forward with a smile and said to Wen Ping, "Esteemed sir, please show your entrance ticket to Vast Treasures Auction House."

"Entrance ticket?" Wen Ping shook his head, indicating he didn’t have one.

The maid didn’t immediately drive Wen Ping out despite his lack of an entrance ticket; instead, she continued to ask, "Then may I ask, are you here to buy or sell?"

"Sell."

He barely had any White Crystal in his pocket, the little he possessed was obtained through special channels.

Luckily, his storage ring contained many items.

All were spoils of war: cultivation techniques, vein techniques, and such.

He couldn’t use them, so might as well sell them.

"Then please follow me..." The maid directly headed to another passageway.

Wen Ping didn’t rush to follow but raised his head to look at the corridor on the third floor of the auction house. The red-clothed woman was walking with her slave and stopped at the most luxurious private room on the top floor.

When he could see no more, the maid’s urging voice called out.

Wen Ping quickly followed.

Soon he arrived at a reception room in the auction house.

Inside stood an elder in blue attire, holding a Three-Vortex Vortex Map, murmuring words only a Vortex Divine Artisan could understand.

"Uncle Li, we’ve got a guest."

The maid softly called out.

The elder in blue turned to appraise Wen Ping and, without setting down the vortex map, reverted his gaze back to it after a few glances, "Bring out what you want to sell directly."

"Alright."

Wen Ping began unloading all sorts of spoils from his storage ring.

Weapons, cultivation techniques, etc., scattered across the floor.

"Hey, quite a few items here."

"Profound Level lower grade vein technique..."

"Profound Level middle-grade cultivation technique..."

"How many storage rings did you rob?"

After a surprised exclamation, the elder glanced back but quickly reflected impatience in his eyes.

"Kid, the items are good; they could fetch around two to three thousand White Crystals collectively. But hasn’t anyone told you, Vast Treasures Auction House only auctions premium items?"

With that, the elder raised a hand.

The maid efficiently helped Wen Ping pack the items, saying, "Sir, we also have a lower-level auction at Vast Treasures. I’ll help take the items there and ensure you get a satisfactory price."

"Take them and sell them for me. This time I’ll be a buyer."

With two to three thousand White Crystals, securing an entry to the auction house was assured.

Couldn’t be a seller.

So he decided to be a buyer.

In any case, enter the auction house first.

If the Long Family took his father away, seeing him again could be problematic.

Why did he suddenly disappear at Xuanse Lake?

He was rescued, but why appear masked now in Vast City?

Certainly, something is amiss.

Better to ask his father directly when he meets him, but the most pressing issue is why his father doesn’t show himself?

He must be wary of someone!

Just as Wen Ping planned to turn away, the elder casually mentioned, "Kid, to enter Vast City’s auction house, at least show 5000 White Crystals first. That’s the auction house’s rule; if lacking, please head next door."

Upon hearing this, Wen Ping furrowed his brow.

Without selling some items, he couldn’t enter the auction house today.

Wen Ping promptly channeled spiritual power into his storage ring, directly controlling the Long Yue Sword, focusing on the three-zhang tall, three-zhang wide Fierce Stone inside — initially acquired from Dragon God Sect’s treasure vault.

Its value is unparalleled.

More precious than the Blood Crystal found in Black Creek Storage Ring, a rarity with no market value.

Dragon God Sect used it as a door, likely due to ignorance. After all, they lacked a Three-Spin Vortex Divine Artisan, unlike Wen Ping’s system.

At the basic level, Fierce Stone serves as material for crafting the Three-Spin Vortex Map, with one palm’s worth costing hundreds of White Crystals.

Wen Ping wielded his Flying Sword to chisel a piece.

Merely a twentieth.

Naturally, he couldn’t extract too much.

Rarity adds value.

Bringing out a three-zhang piece at once might deter offers at palm’s worth price.

"Will this suffice to enter the auction house?"

Boom!

A half-meter-high chunk of Fierce Stone landed with a thud!
