System's Super Sect Chapter 1194 - 1060: The Suddenly Great Immortal Sect
Previously on System's Super Sect...
Then advised again, "We don’t need to fight to the death for the sake of the Star Sea Sect or the Black Mist Sect and end up with mutual destruction. Wouldn’t this make the You Country infiltrators hidden in the lower crowd start cheering with joy? Sit down and talk, there’s still room for discussion! Yan Lai, say something quickly, do you really want things to get out of hand before you’re satisfied?"
"But I am the City Lord of Divine Flight City!"
Yan Lai said righteously.
Celestial String angrily said, "Why are you so stubborn? Did the Immortal Sect wish for all this to happen? Is Sect Leader Wen doing this for himself? Think about it, if one day your child got the qualification to buy from the Purple Treasure Pavilion but was killed by those coveting the Vortex Killing Artifact as soon as they left Six Square Street. Is this what you want to see? Or do you plan to never let your child buy a Vortex Killing Artifact from the Purple Treasure Pavilion for their entire life?"
As Celestial String spoke, he became more and more agitated.
Even Wen Ping was a bit moved upon hearing this.
Yan Lai also fell silent at this moment.
He had to admit that Celestial String made a lot of sense.
Unless he truly planned for his child to never buy a Vortex Killing Artifact or stay by their side all their life, never leaving an inch.
Others who heard Celestial String’s words also nodded in agreement.
Eyes turned towards Wen Ping and the Immortal Sect, filled with respect.
Indeed!
The Immortal Sect was not doing this for their own benefit.
On the contrary, if it were for their own sake, the Immortal Sect would directly sell the Vortex Killing Artifact to the four six-star influences to maximize their benefits.
But the Immortal Sect didn’t do that.
The Immortal Sect chose to treat everyone equally.
They also promised to give those who bought the Vortex Killing Artifact a safety guarantee.
And they did what they said!
"Celestial String spoke very reasonably."
"If there had been a sect like the Immortal Sect earlier, would we have needed to be so fearful and jittery?"
"Previously, I saved up over thirty years of White Crystal to break through to the Mountain Suppression Realm but didn’t dare to go to the trade guild to buy the Celestial Materials and Earthly Treasures that I’ve longed for over thirty years that could help me break through. Just because I was afraid that as soon as I bought it, someone would target me when I stepped out."
As such voices became more prevalent, Yan Lai slowly turned to look at the people of the Black Mist Sect, a trace of displeasure flashing through his gaze.
Indeed!
As a city lord, why should I, instead of doing something meaningful, break ties with the Immortal Sect just to save such a person’s life?
"Sect Leader Wen, Celestial String is right, and so are the people of our Divine Flight City. In Divine Flight City, I should take responsibility like Sect Leader Wen. Since some people think it’s fine to kill and rob under my nose in Divine Flight City, they deserve to die!"
With that, Yan Lai vanished before the people of the Black Mist Sect.
As soon as Yan Lai left, everyone in the Black Mist Sect was so frightened that they hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, pushing all responsibility onto the already dead Sect Leader.
This left Wen Ping, who was originally furious, suddenly at a loss.
Hmm?
This isn’t how I imagined it would be.
Celestial String actually persuaded Yan Lai to leave.
Not only that, but his current actions turned into an act of self-sacrifice for a righteous cause.
"This has left me clueless. If you were to stop me, maybe I’d know what to do," Wen Ping thought to himself.
Seeing that Wen Ping didn’t respond, Celestial String immediately spoke again, "Sect Leader Wen, please go ahead and do what needs to be done. If anyone tries to stop you, I, Celestial String, will be the first to disagree! If anyone dares to run, I’ll personally bring them back for you! This bunch of troublemakers should have been cleaned up long ago."
As Celestial String spoke, Yan Lai also chimed in, "My City Lord’s Mansion will surely assist Sect Leader Wen in thoroughly investigating this matter, and dig out all those behind the scenes, returning a clear sky to Divine Flight City!"
Jun Tianyi from the City Lord’s Mansion immediately stood up and said loudly, "Sect Leader Wen, there’s no need for you to personally deal with these. Let me help you!"
Suddenly, Wen Ping became a hero.
This left Wen Ping even more unsure of what to do.
The plot is off?
Helplessly, Wen Ping could only turn and say to Chen Xie, "Chen Xie, how many on the list you currently have are still alive?"
"In Black Mist Sect, there are still two elders supporting Wei Tong’s actions that haven’t been eliminated; in Star Sea Sect, all those who knew and participated in this matter, and supported it, are dead; and in the Thousand Crafts Sect, there’s one person who knows and supports Wei Tong’s actions that hasn’t been eliminated!"
As Chen Xie spoke in a deep voice, two elders in the Black Mist Sect immediately slumped to the ground, faces ashen.
It turns out those in the Intelligence Building had known all along!
And the people in the Thousand Crafts Sect looked at each other anxiously.
How could someone from his Thousand Crafts Sect support Wei Tong’s actions!
Who?
Is he trying to bring disaster upon us?
Why does he want to involve us if he’s tired of living?
As they anxiously looked and speculated among themselves, Lin Yehong’s brow twitched, but he stood there pretending to be calm.
He gambles that the Thousand Crafts Sect doesn’t know it’s him!
Because he used a Sound Insulation Barrier that day, and his room could block all outside sounds, with double insurance, no one could have heard his conversation with Wei Tong.
But thinking about it, if it was Wei Tong who sold him out?
Lin Yehong suddenly panicked a bit.
Compared to the people of the Black Mist Sect and the Thousand Crafts Sect, those from the Star Sea Sect felt as if a weight had been lifted, breathing a sigh of relief, momentarily forgetting about the death of Vice Sect Leader Wei and the elders.
"Keep a close eye on them. Once the Vortex Duel is over, clean them all out." As things weren’t going as he expected, Wen Ping didn’t rush to clean up these three "troublemakers," but sat back down instead.
