The appearance of the Immortal Sect was by no means accidental.
No wonder the Immortal Sect Leader faced the threats of Zeming Palace and Thousand Crafts Sect with confidence, never showing worry on his face.
"Yes!"
Yan Lai nodded.
Immediately, Si Haixian turned into a streak and flew toward the Purple Treasure Pavilion.
After he left, the news of Zeming Trading Company and Thousand Crafts Sect premises being razed spread rapidly in Divine Flight City.
Their demise was nearly equivalent to the annihilation of two six-star influences.
Because, apart from the Long Family, the other three six-star influences in the Primordial Yang Domain were far less deep-rooted than Zeming Trading Company and Thousand Crafts Sect.
...
Purple Treasure Pavilion.
After Wen Ping returned to the Purple Treasure Pavilion, he said to Zi Ran and You Yue, who had been waiting for his return, "From today onwards, there will be no more Zeming Trading Company or Thousand Crafts Sect in Divine Flight City. The development of the Purple Treasure Pavilion is now in your hands."
"Understood!"
"Yes, Sect Leader!"
The two of them responded in succession.
Zi Ran was unfazed, as this was a common occurrence for him.
However, You Yue was different.
The eradication of the Zeming Trading Company and the Thousand Crafts Sect in such a short time was as shocking to her as when she first learned of the existence of the Vortex New Dao.
She finally understood why Zi Ran was so confident.
The Immortal Sect possessed such power.
Indeed, there was no need to fear treacherous people like Mingzhu, because before absolute power, all conspiracies are mere illusions.
At that moment, a brilliant streak flashed across the sky.
It was precisely Si Haixian!
After approaching the Purple Treasure Pavilion, Si Haixian stopped in mid-air not far from the pavilion, gazing at Wen Ping across the hundred-zhang distance.
Wen Ping did not speak.
Si Haixian spoke first, "Sect Leader Wen, you have made quite a splash tonight. Selling the Vortex Map, erasing the presence of the Zeming Trading Company and the Thousand Crafts Sect—these actions are enough to astonish the world!"
"I had no choice. The two factions decided to put aside their grudges and centuries of hatred to unite against my sect’s Purple Treasure Pavilion. As the sect leader, it’s only natural to eliminate such threats in their infancy." Wen Ping spoke frankly to Si Haixian.
There was no use denying it.
The Great Domain Master would find out sooner or later.
As for Wind Immortal Skill, they would surely broadcast tonight’s events widely.
Hearing Wen Ping’s straightforward admission, Si Haixian remained silent for a moment, suppressing his curiosity, and then changed the subject, "Sect Leader Wen, can I meet Feng Qian and Bei Tianhan? The Immortal Sect’s having four members in the Middle Realm truly amazes me."
"Feng Qian and Bei Tianhan have been dead for a long time, haven’t they?" Wen Ping did not intend to acknowledge the existence of Feng Qian and Bei Tianhan.
Because once he admitted it, wouldn’t that mean Wind Immortal Skill had misunderstood for no reason?
Wen Ping still hoped to leverage Wind Immortal Skill’s misunderstanding to provoke a three-way battle among the Zeming Palace, the Thousand Crafts Sect, and Prince Longyang.
At that moment, Si Haixian suddenly erected a sound insulation barrier, encapsulating both himself and Wen Ping within it.
"Since Sect Leader Wen does not wish to admit it, I won’t press the matter. I must say, Sect Leader Wen, your tactics are impressive. Even the Palace Master of Zeming Palace and Prince Longyang would never have guessed. Your trusted aides and prized disciples were actually members of the Immortal Sect all along, going back hundreds of years."
Wen Ping furrowed his brow upon hearing this.
Why is there yet another version?
There was one version with Wind Immortal Skill.
Now, with Si Haixian, another version.
If you’re not writing a book, you’re really wasting your talent.
"I don’t understand what the Great Domain Master is talking about." Wen Ping replied somewhat helplessly, then added, "But I assure the Great Domain Master that whatever I promised will be done. If there’s a Vortex Map or Vortex Killing Artifact for sale, it will definitely be announced in the Immortal Daily ten days to half a month in advance."
"Since Sect Leader Wen doesn’t want to talk about it, I won’t force it. In summary, please believe me, Sect Leader Wen, that I, Si Haixian, am undoubtedly on your side." The less Wen Ping said, the more certain Si Haixian became that the Immortal Sect was anything but simple.
As for Feng Qian and Bei Tianhan.
Si Haixian suspected that the two of them were likely out of the city, still pursuing Wind Immortal Skill.
Given Wen Ping’s character, it would be impossible for him to let Wind Immortal Skill escape alive.
"I trust in the Great Domain Master’s determination, which is why I’m willing to inform you of what Vortex Maps will be at the auction. For anyone else, even a King-Sealing Expert, I wouldn’t bother to engage them." Wen Ping concluded with a smile.
Si Haixian immediately cupped his hands towards Wen Ping and said, "Thank you, Sect Leader Wen, for the information about the Vortex Map. If you have the time, please come to my place for a drink. Even if the wines brewed by the Domain Lord’s Mansion are over a thousand years old, there will surely be plenty."
"Safe travels," Wen Ping gestured a farewell.
Si Haixian did not leave immediately but continued in a deep voice, "I must remind Sect Leader Wen that the King-Sealing Experts behind Zeming Palace are numerous, and those connected to the Thousand Crafts Sect are even more. The appearance of the Vortex New Dao poses a significant threat to them, so they will undoubtedly try to destroy the Purple Treasure Pavilion before the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking ends, preventing you from entering the core of You Country. However, I will return to Celestial Sun City tomorrow to prepare for the upcoming Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking, so Sect Leader Wen, do be careful."
Wen Ping’s lips curled into a smile as he replied, "Thank you for the reminder, Great Domain Master. See you in Celestial Sun City!"
Seeing Wen Ping’s smile,
Si Haixian’s conviction only deepened.
The Immortal Sect.
Absolutely not simple!
"See you in Celestial Sun City!" Si Haixian immediately cupped his hands, turned to leave, but then suddenly paused and said to Wen Ping, "If Sect Leader Wen has no other matters, would you spar with me? I want to see whether my Celestial Level Lower Grade Vein Technique in the Transformation Realm is stronger, or if Sect Leader Wen’s swordsmanship, which can instantly defeat a Middle Realm expert, is stronger!"
"I’d rather not,"
Wen Ping showed a difficult expression.
Si Haixian chuckled lightly, "Sect Leader Wen is scared?"
Wen Ping shook his head, uttering five words.
"I’m afraid I’ll kill you by mistake!"
(Night has not broken yet,
so it doesn’t count as the next day.
Hehe.
Second update complete.
Good night, everyone!)
