System's Super Sect-Chapter 761 - 755, Prosperity for All (1/4)

"So this guy is a hot potato?"

"That’s right!"

He Nian nodded.

He did not know how strong the Vortex Map was.

He couldn’t even imagine it.

Because the battlefield was just one of many within the Heaven-Gazing Gorge war grounds.

If the people from the Vortex Map knew the legend was true, that the creator of Vortex Map was indeed not dead, they would undoubtedly go to any lengths to bring back Weisheng Xingyu.

At the same time, they would eliminate all those who knew the truth.

As for the You Country on the Heaven-Gazing Gorge side, having disputed with the Vortex Map for years, they would certainly not let Weisheng Xingyu just return like that.

Because the abilities of Weisheng Xingyu were truly terrifying.

And this wasn’t just talking about strength, but also intelligence.

Several hundred years ago, You Country was all-powerful in the Heaven-Gazing Gorge, but Weisheng Xingyu managed to establish the Vortex Map and split the realm with them.

The difficulty of this was simply greater than climbing to heaven.

Yet Weisheng Xingyu achieved it.

At that time, the Vortex Map wasn’t as strong as it is now. If today’s unparalleled leader Weisheng Xingyu were to return to the Vortex Map and lead a force even stronger than You Country, the royal family of You Country would probably be frightened to death, so they would also do everything to prevent Weisheng Xingyu’s return.

Squeezed between the two giant powers, could the Immortal Sect curry favor?

However, Wen Ping merely smiled and said, "He still owes this Sect Leader a debt. He can only be sent away after repaying it. Until then, as long as he doesn’t leave the Immortal Sect, no one can sense him or that rebirth body of whatever. He Nian, put your mind at ease, watch him, and ensure he doesn’t escape."

"Understood," said He Nian, since Wen Ping was so resolute, He Nian didn’t want to continue speaking.

Talking too much would be annoying.

He believed that Wen Ping understood the danger within.

After He Nian turned and went to the Main Hall, Wen Ping looked back at Long Yue who was secretly following and asked, "Have you met Long Ke?"

"I have—"

Long Yue immediately froze as soon as she replied.

Then she suddenly understood, jumped up, and leaned in, saying, "So you always knew!"

"Hehe." Wen Ping smiled softly, neither nodding nor shaking his head.

Wen Ping felt that since he already came into contact with the Long Family, there was no need to pretend ignorance about Long Ke’s true identity.

Doing so was meaningless.

Once Long Yue knew the truth, she couldn’t stop talking, saying, "My sister always thought you didn’t know, kept calling her Elder Zhao and Elder Zhao. Yesterday when I saw her, she told me to pretend not to know her and follow suit calling her Elder Zhao..."

Wen Ping smiled and asked, "Besides this, did your sister say anything else?"

"No...just worried about home. She’s afraid Father and the others would find out about this. Because my sister originally said she was going to the battlefield to train. If Father and the others found out that she didn’t go to the battlefield and came here to help you instead, things would be really bad."

Wen Ping coldly said, "Bad? Hehe, when this Sect Leader sets foot on the land of Heaven-Gazing Gorge, they’ll know what real trouble looks like."

"Wen Ping, you don’t intend to start a war with the Long Family, do you?"

"War? I don’t have the time for that."

"Even if you had the time, it’s best not to start a war, because the Long Family is not just the Long Family. The waters in the Heaven-Gazing Gorge are deeper than you think. If something happened to you, wouldn’t my sister go mad?"

"Not simple is not simple then."

Wen Ping smiled, not caring about Long Yue’s warning.

"By the way, if you need healing, the celestial materials He Nian purchased can be made into spiritual cuisine by Huai Ye. Huai Ye can make decent spiritual cuisine."

"That little fellow Huai Ye is so capable?"

"She has a nickname, known as the God of Cooking."

"God of Cooking!"

Long Yue’s eyes rolled around, and then she laughed foolishly.

While chatting away, Yun Liao and others came over in a group.

"Sect Leader, there are some things we want to ask your opinion about."

"It’s not a small matter, and we’re not sure what to decide."

Wen Ping responded, "Speak."

Yun Liao said, "In the recent month, countless people have come to join the Sect, including young masters and ladies from major families. Do you think we should accept some? If we don’t accept anyone, the Immortal Sect might miss the chance to form alliances with many sects. Moreover, the people from Scattered Tavern are still in Cangwu City..."

"As for the Scattered Tavern, don’t worry about them, I’ve already met their Alliance Leader. Their Alliance Leader doesn’t intend for us to become a dependency. As for recruiting for the Immortal Sect, you can handle it yourselves, but not too many."

Wen Ping had never thought of expanding the number of disciples because cultivation resources were already tight before; adding more disciples would be counterproductive.

However, now with those White Crystal Ores from the Demon Race, expanding the Immortal Sect was no longer an issue, accepting more disciples was only natural.

Yun Liao nodded, "Should we open ten spots this time, Sect Leader, what do you think? There are a lot of exceptionally talented individuals in Cangwu City right now, we can select the best among them."

Wen Ping said, "For these matters, discuss with the Elders, and the final review will be handed to the new Elder Chen Xie. His expertise in handling intelligence for the Hundred Sects Alliance makes him well-versed in the potentials of Heaven and Earth Lake’s young talents."

Yun Liao nodded, "Understood."

Following that, Zhantian Qingxuan spoke up, "Sect Leader, the City Lord Huan Cheng of Cangwu City asked me to inquire about this. Many forces want to trade with Cangwu City now. The City Lord of Huan Cheng also wants to take advantage of this opportunity to build Cangwu City into a new trade center. What do you think?"

Wen Ping replied, "That’s a good thing. So, let City Lord Huan Cheng boldly proceed. As for the Demons around East Lake, I will send people to deal with them. If we can build Cangwu City into a trade center, it will be beneficial to everyone."

"The Sect Leader has a keen eye, and the biggest headache for City Lord Huan Cheng now is the problem of demons, since we are really close to Demon Emperor Lake."

"However, I’ll say it again. Trade is fine, but in Cangwu City, no fighting is allowed. Violators will be directly expelled."

"Understood, I shall convey your thoughts later."

Zhantian Qingxuan nodded, smiling joyously.

Witnessing Cangwu City’s gradual development made her proud.

Because she was the architect of this transformation, and this sense of accomplishment was no less than crafting a Vortex Map.

Zhantian Qingxuan reminded, "Elder Yu Mo, my bit’s over, it’s your turn to speak."

Yu Mo nodded, taking over the conversation, "Sect Leader, it’s still the old problem. The crusading coalition of the Hundred Sects Alliance is growing larger and larger. Yesterday, I received news that after you stirred up the Century Grand Event, the three Golden Level Chiefs issued a kill order. This time, they likely mean business."

"Still not giving up?"

Wen Ping genuinely didn’t want to get entangled with the Hundred Sects Alliance.

It was meaningless.

It wasted time.

Yu Mo asked, "Still not giving up, Sect Leader, should we do something?"

"No need, just continue to keep an eye on them. Report to me when they actually move, otherwise, don’t pay too much attention to the Hundred Sects Alliance. If any Golden Level Chiefs appear, go directly to Elder He Nian; as long as it isn’t Earth Unrestricted, he can handle it."

"Yes!"

Yu Mo was shaken, and his worries were immediately halved.

Others were astounded by He Nian’s strength.

"So Elder He Nian is this powerful?"

"With him, Golden Level Chiefs are nothing to fear."

Long Yue chimed in, "And there’s me. Those Golden Level Chiefs, any one of them is easily handled by me."

Everyone was taken aback by Long Yue’s words.

None expected that Long Yue would be a Half-Step Earth Unrestricted expert.

"This..."

"Forgive my poor eyesight, I didn’t realize Miss Long was also a Half-Step Earth Unrestricted expert."

"Miss Long is truly gifted. Reaching such heights at a young age, it seems certain she will achieve Earth Unrestricted eventually."

Amidst the praise and admiration, Long Yue chuckled gleefully, saying, "You Elders really know how to flatter. Haha, don’t worry. If they dare to come, I’ll take down every single one!"

Wen Ping merely smiled on the side and left upon confirming no other sect affairs awaited him. He first went to the dormitory area to feed his Palace Guard, then checked the spiritual fields on Medicine Mountain. After a complete tour, Wen Ping dove into the forest, activating the Changmo Technique to devour Wood Qi and engage in hidden cultivation.

One day.

Two days.

Three days.

Not until the fourth day did Wen Ping emerge from the forest.

Because Huaikong had arrived!

After catching up with Yang Lele’s father in Cangwu City, Huaikong headed to Yunlan Mountain together with him.
