Long Ye, upon hearing the three’s words, responded lightly, "Don’t you know, my relationship with the Immortal Sect is quite good?"
With that, Long Ye transformed into a swift flying light, leaving behind the three originally serious-looking Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted experts of the Long Family, whose faces started brightening up.
The three smiled at each other, faces full of surprise, then hurriedly followed, lavishing Long Ye with praise and flattery.
"Second Young Master is indeed capable, already having forged good relations with the Immortal Sect long ago."
"Second Young Master, that’s very impressive. I wondered why you were the first to go down and get a raw deal, turns out you were coordinating with the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect."
"Second Young Master, I’m utterly admiring you for this move!"
Long Ye glanced at the three, then reminded them, "But you must not speak of my relationship with the Immortal Sect to anyone, not even the First Young Master. And warn the Long Family and affiliated forces, no one is to provoke members of the Immortal Sect, violators will be executed!"
The three hurriedly nodded.
They all expressed, Young Master, we understand!
You are strategizing!
We will definitely cooperate well!
At this moment, the three began to imagine the despairing faces of the Star Sea Sect and Celestial Extinction City upon learning all of this.
...
Purple Treasure Pavilion.
After many half-step Celestial Unrestricted individuals sliced through Purple Treasure Pavilion and secretly vowed never to watch the commotion again, and swiftly escaped, Yan Lai, hiding in the shadows, let out a sigh of relief. His desire to return to the City Lord’s Mansion was directly severed!
Not leaving!
Just squatting in Six-Fang Street!
Anyway, even if he returned, he wouldn’t sit for long before having to go out again!
Of course, Wen Ping knew all this, but he couldn’t be bothered to deal with it; let Yan Lai stay where he liked.
At this moment, Wen Ping was curious about that You Yue Elder, because Chen Xie just told him that even if You Yue Elder were to die, she refused to let Zi Ran have any dealings with Zeming Palace, and rejected Zi Ran’s decision to save her, explicitly instructing Zi Ran not to go back in front of everyone.
From this behavior, it can be seen that You Yue Elder certainly loved Master Zi Ran and didn’t want to see Master Zi Ran hurt again.
Such an admirable relative, should she die just like this, Wen Ping felt it somewhat unfortunate.
Moreover, Zi Ran had only one relative left.
"System, I want to see You Yue’s information."
As the words fell, a system pop-up appeared immediately before his eyes.
[You Yue]
[Gender: Female]
[Age: 765 years (currently only 72 days left)]
[Realm: Half-step Celestial Unrestricted]
[Vortex Skill: Five-Spin Vortex Divine Artisan]
...
Wen Ping’s gaze fell on the age column.
years old.
That’s not right.
As a half-step Celestial Unrestricted expert, unless something unexpected happens, they can live for two to three thousand years or more.
Why has You Yue reached her end at just 765 years?
"System, is there more detailed information?"
"Yes!"
"Bring it out."
As the words fell, more detailed information appeared in the previous age column, answering Wen Ping’s puzzlement.
[Age: 765 years (currently only 72 days left) Note: Imprisoned for a hundred years in You Country’s jail, a hundred years of torture led to severe life expectancy depletion.]
"So her life expectancy is overdrawn."
What a pity.
The Immortal Sect doesn’t have Spiritual Cuisine to replenish life expectancy.
But there’s a way to increase life expectancy.
That is Breaking Realm!
You Yue is a half-step Celestial Unrestricted, an advanced Realm-Breaking Pill is the only thing that can save her life.
After closing the system interface, Wen Ping went straight to the door of the room where Zi Ran was.
Since returning, Zi Ran had kept herself locked inside.
Although she was busy tidying up and firming Celestial Materials, she didn’t say a word, nor did she call someone to help, just burying herself in work relentlessly.
When Wen Ping pushed the door open, Zi Ran still hadn’t snapped out of it.
It wasn’t until Wen Ping reached her side, the corner of her eyes catching sight of Wen Ping, that Zi Ran came to her senses and hurriedly saluted.
"Sect Leader!"
"Have you really decided? Just to avoid causing me trouble and avoid troubling the Sect, did you harden your heart to watch your only relative die?"
Wen Ping asked two questions.
Zi Ran nodded gloomily and then said, "I have already brought Sect Leader and the Sect a lot of trouble, so I don’t want to bring even more trouble to the Sect and Sect Leader. Only by not seeing her, can they completely kill the hope of me acknowledging the ancestors and returning to the Sect. Moreover, that is Grandmother’s own choice; she doesn’t want to become my vulnerability, thereby bringing major trouble to the Sect Leader."
After listening to Zi Ran’s words, Wen Ping responded in a deep voice, "Do you think I, as the Sect Leader, fear trouble? If I feared trouble, I wouldn’t have acted to kill Xinghai Yue. Precisely because I don’t care about them, I just didn’t like the sight of it, so killing was the solution."
"I know the Sect Leader’s character and understand your feelings towards us, but Zeming Palace is not what you imagine it to be. To be honest, if I were here, I would definitely risk my life to prevent you from killing Xinghai Yue! Because the background of every Vice Palace Master of Zeming Palace is extraordinary and not just so simple as being a Five-Spin Vortex Divine Artisan or a Heaven Unrestricted powerhouse."
Saying this, complex emotions appeared in Zi Ran’s eyes, clearly regretting not being able to stop Wen Ping from killing Xinghai Yue.
However, Wen Ping remained unconcerned, and with a smile, asked Zi Ran again, "Is there anything more complex than Zhetian Tower?"
Zi Ran nodded, acknowledging Wen Ping’s words, after all, no matter how strong Xinghai Yue’s background was, it couldn’t surpass Zhetian Tower.
But precisely because of this, Zi Ran didn’t want to bring more trouble to Wen Ping.
Before Zi Ran spoke again, Wen Ping pursued another question, "If the sky falls, the Sect can shield it, there’s no need for you to worry. Now, I give you an opportunity, if you can persuade You Yue Elder to join the Immortal Sect, I can save her, maybe even help her ascend to Celestial Unrestricted. If you still don’t want to trouble the Sect, pretend I said nothing."
