System's Super Sect-Chapter 709 - 704. Advice for Pei Wu

"Don’t worry, hasn’t Alliance Leader Pei Wu yet to share the good news?"

Wen Ping immediately looked at Pei Wu’s smiling face.

Pei Wu chuckled, "Sect Leader Wen, I’ve already shared the bad news. Why don’t you take a guess at the good news?"

"Shall I play along?" Wen Ping knew Pei Wu would play such a trick.

Forget it, might as well cooperate.

To avoid Pei Wu making up things out of thin air.

Wen Ping guessed randomly, "Hmm, is it that Alliance Leader Pei Wu’s wife is expecting?"

Pei Wu laughed, "Try again."

"Could it be that the Hundred Sects Alliance is being dissolved?"

"Why don’t you give it another shot?"

"It’s too difficult, I won’t guess anymore." Wen Ping turned his head away, looking towards the second floor.

Pei Wu’s words reminded him.

The Demon Realm really isn’t safe right now. The entire Demon Slaying Competition is a conspiracy; once the Demon Race’s attention is focused there, it’ll be hard to pull out gracefully.

Later, I’ll need Long Ye to send people to protect Yang Lele, Qin Mo, and Lin Kewu.

If they can safely achieve their scores in the Demon Slaying, they can retreat smoothly amidst Long Ye’s scheme.

"Sect Leader Wen, could you make your guesses less perfunctory?" Pei Wu glanced at Zi Ran, "Elder Zi Ran, why don’t you try guessing? Guess what good news I’ve brought you?"

Zi Ran glanced at his own sect leader, thought for a moment, and said, "I can’t guess."

Pei Wu laughed with greater delight.

After gently coughing twice, Pei Wu confidently said, "Rest assured, Sect Leader Wen, I’ve instructed all the forces at San Ren Inn to assist any Immortal Sect disciple whenever they encounter trouble in the Demon Realm. That’s the good news I’m bringing to you, isn’t it like seeing the clear blue sky?"

"Thank you, Alliance Leader Pei." Zi Ran was overjoyed.

Having the support from people at San Ren Inn will make things much easier for the sect’s disciples in the Demon Realm.

San Ren Inn is sending thousands into the Demon Realm, and protecting Huai Ye, Qin Mo, and Lin Kewu should be more than sufficient.

Pei Wu, smiling, looked at Wen Ping, "How about it, Sect Leader Wen?"

Wen Ping turned his head and cupped his fists in thanks, "Thank you, Alliance Leader Pei. So, I owe you a favor now?"

"Hahaha—" Pei Wu nodded, "But no need to repay. Sect Leader Wen just needs to remember that San Ren Inn will always stand by your side."

Wen Ping responded, "Thank you for the goodwill, but I still have to say this. If Alliance Leader Pei’s intention is still to have the Immortal Sect join San Ren Inn, then I must advise you not to bother. Currently, the Immortal Sect only accepts vassals or allies; it’s not intending to join any faction, be it the Hundred Sects Alliance or San Ren Inn."

Wen Ping really didn’t want to waste breath on this matter, so he chose to be straightforward.

Besides, Wen Ping dislikes owing personal favors.

"I expected this." Pei Wu had a knowing smile, as if he anticipated Wen Ping’s words.

Wen Ping continued, "Alliance Leader Pei, I have some bad news too, would you like to hear it?"

Pei Wu responded, with no trace of his earlier cheer, "Please, go on."

Wen Ping said, "Something big is going to happen in the Demon Realm, it’s best not to go deeper."

"Hmm?"

Pei Wu suddenly felt confused.

But seeing Wen Ping’s serious expression, a cloud of doubt rose in his mind.

One must know, for thousands entering the Demon Realm, the peripheral resources aren’t sufficient. To encounter more demons and earn more points, one must delve deeper.

Yet Wen Ping advised not to go deep.

"Does Sect Leader Wen know some insider information?" Pei Wu quickly asked.

Wen Ping shook his head, not intending to elaborate, "That’s all I can say, whether Alliance Leader Pei believes it or not...By the way, how about joining me for a meal? This inn’s Flaming Chicken is quite good."

"No, thank you." Pei Wu had no appetite now.

San Ren Inn’s prodigies are all in the Demon Realm.

It must be foolproof.

Even if Wen Ping’s words are false, he must return and quickly send people to investigate.

Having said that, Pei Wu stood up to leave.

Zi Ran got up and escorted him to the door.

Returning upstairs, Zi Ran hurried to find Wen Ping.

As for Pei Wu, once back, he promptly assigned a large team to inquire about matters related to the Demon Realm, simultaneously searching various intelligence networks for clues, and also contacted the undercover agent within the Hundred Sects Alliance.

Pei Wu believed Wen Ping wouldn’t speak without a valid basis.

However, contacting the insider within the Hundred Sects Alliance now faced opposition from many at San Ren Inn.

After all, planting an agent in the upper echelons of the Hundred Sects Alliance is challenging, and risking exposure for Wen Ping’s words is undesirable for San Ren Inn’s leadership.

Additionally, they are reluctant to let San Ren Inn’s talents withdraw to the Demon Realm’s outskirts as it impacts the point rankings and the opportunity for outside Heaven and Earth Lake cultivation.

The previous century’s grand event allowed many to practice by Heaven and Earth Lake for some time, and those still surviving are now at the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression, renowned in Heaven and Earth Lake.

Especially for San Ren Inn, currently oppressed by the Hundred Sects Alliance, such opportunities are dearly needed.

Since he couldn’t convince most, Pei Wu decided to investigate first while closely monitoring Wen Ping.

As mentioned, he trusted Wen Ping’s statement wasn’t without reason!

Meanwhile, upstairs, Zi Ran sought Wen Ping to discuss contingencies. Although San Ren Inn agreed to help, if it truly concerns life and death, surely no one would willingly assist.

Especially when the Hundred Sects Alliance’s numbers are overwhelming.

Even a single casualty is a loss for the Immortal Sect.

Zi Ran inquired, "Sect Leader, should we cancel their training? The team competition already proved they are comparable to anyone at Heaven and Earth Lake, isn’t that adequate?"

"Elder Zi Ran, have faith in them, and I’ve instructed them to hunt at the Demon Realm’s periphery. No need to speak further on this." Wen Ping shifted topics, "By the way, there’s something at H Lan you can assist with. He mentioned you have a disciple named Chen Xie, a talented individual. Is there a way to recruit him to the Immortal Sect?"

Seeing Wen Ping’s reluctance to further discuss the matter, despite her anxiety, Zi Ran chose to trust him.

She believed Wen Ping wouldn’t gamble with the lives of Immortal Sect’s disciples.

Still, why was the Sect Leader so determined? Was it merely faith in Huai Ye and the others?

With questions buried inside, Zi Ran shifted to Chen Xie’s topic, "Chen Xie is my first disciple, my chosen pupil. He’s indeed remarkable in intelligence gathering; when I needed celestial materials, he provided the information, telling me which lake and who possessed such items. Since the Sect Leader is keen on recruiting, I’ll certainly do my best to persuade him."

"I’ll grant him the Elder position, and the Immortal Sect’s cultivation land can be entirely accessible without charge." Wen Ping intends to amend the system-designated Immortal Sect paid cultivation model, starting with Chen Xie.

Upon returning, with H Lan and Zi Ran assisting in creating the Vortex Map, once the Vortex Map’s industrial chain is established, even if the system imposes sales limitations, the sect surely won’t lack funds.

Future cultivation will be time-limited only!

Just after speaking, Wen Ping thought of another point, quickly telling Zi Ran, "Also, provide him with a unique venue to leverage his talents. Let him manage a wind-like communication mode that disregards distance, avoiding massive life costs."

Since the discovery of the Sound Transmission Stone, Wen Ping intended to craft an immediate communication world, but the Immortal Sect’s management talent was scarce, preoccupying him with current system tasks.

Wen Ping believed someone uninterested in power should have keen interest in immediate communication.
