System's Super Sect Chapter 1196 - 1061: Sect Leader’s Will of the Thousand Crafts Sect vs. Great Domain Master’s Will of the Primordial Yang Domain

After speaking, Celestial String turned his gaze to Wen Ping, observing the subtle changes in Wen Ping’s expression.

In his heart, he feared Wen Ping might misunderstand, mistakenly think that he had a good relationship with Long Ye Gui Feng, who came with ill intentions, and he also feared Wen Ping might misunderstand him as someone who breaks his word. It’s not that he breaks his word, but Long Ye Gui Feng is indeed shameless.

How many times has he helped Luo Qianshan over the years?

He didn’t mind not receiving Long Ye Gui Feng’s gratitude, but now that Luo Qianshan is dead, he immediately comes to question him.

After observing Wen Ping for a few moments, although there was no unnecessary expression on Wen Ping’s face, Celestial String still felt uneasy and quickly explained to Wen Ping: "Sect Leader Wen, a hundred years ago he beat me once, and at that time I promised him I would look out for Luo Qianshan. Whenever Luo Qianshan had a request over these hundred years, I would definitely step in to help. But do I have to help Luo Qianshan for his entire life?"

"So this is why you allowed the Immortal Sect to kill my junior disciple, and now you’re so close to the person who killed my junior disciple?" Long Ye Gui Feng spoke in a low voice, his murderous aura sweeping past everyone like thousands of blades.

The next moment, Long Ye Gui Feng slowly approached Celestial String.

Wen Ping originally didn’t want to waste words with Long Ye Gui Feng. If the other party wants to avenge Luo Qianshan, he’s ready to oblige at any time! But now Celestial String has been standing by his side, has been speaking for him, and at this moment if he wants to extricate himself from the matter, it would seem a bit disloyal.

"Celestial String didn’t break his word. Before Luo Qianshan was dying, he indeed appeared like a protective father right away." Wen Ping explained for Celestial String with a sentence, then took a step forward, going toward Long Ye Gui Feng who was pressing closer to Celestial String, "But no one can save the one my Sect wants to kill, even if you came, it’d be the same."

Long Ye Gui Feng stepped forward again, and after a step, suddenly disappeared, reappearing only a short distance away from Wen Ping.

"I didn’t expect that after a mere hundred years of absence from the Primordial Yang Domain, the people of the Primordial Yang Domain seem to have forgotten me and my sword."

Long Ye Gui Feng spoke coldly, just a short distance away from Wen Ping, the killing intent in his eyes almost ready to emerge.

Seeing this, Yan Lai couldn’t take it anymore.

"Enough!"

A perfectly good vortex duel, now turned into this.

Can there be peace for a moment?

"Long Ye Gui Feng, I don’t care what purpose you came with today, but now is the time for the vortex duel!"

Long Ye Gui Feng slowly turned his head, looking at Yan Lai with a trace of a laugh, then asked: "Even City Lord Yan Lai is helping the Immortal Sect, I truly haven’t seen this happen in ages. But City Lord Yan Lai, today, I’m here with the will of the Sect Leader."

Upon hearing the four words "Sect Leader’s Will", Yan Lai’s brow couldn’t help but twitch.

Sect Leader of the Thousand Crafts Sect, You Country’s top Vortex Divine Artisan!

Although he was an official of You Country, and the City Lord of Divine Flight City, compared to the identity of the Thousand Crafts Sect Leader, he was not even a one-star difference.

If Long Ye Gui Feng is truly here with the Sect Leader’s will, then he can only invite the Great Domain Master to be present, otherwise, it would be difficult to control the situation at hand.

Yan Lai cautiously asked, "What sort of insight does the Sect Leader have?"

"The Sect Leader also wants to see this so-called Vortex New Dao, and also wants to see who’s behind the Immortal Sect that killed my junior disciple." As he spoke, Long Ye Gui Feng’s gaze fell on Wen Ping again, scrutinizing up and down continuously, "But since even City Lord Yan is speaking for the Immortal Sect today, then I will give City Lord Yan some face!"

"Long Ye Gui Feng, I know you’re angry, but I’m not intentionally siding with the Immortal Sect, I’m merely executing the will of the Great Domain Master." Since Long Ye Gui Feng brought out the Sect Leader, Yan Lai could only bring out the Great Domain Master.

Although the identity of the Thousand Crafts Sect Leader is exalted, the Great Domain Master’s identity isn’t low either, especially since the Great Domain Master is backed by the official You Country.

Compared to them, the Thousand Crafts Sect is too insignificant.

Upon hearing Yan Lai’s words, Long Ye Gui Feng’s killing intent diminished considerably, then he reluctantly and unpleasantly looked back at Wen Ping, leaving behind a frosty remark.

"After the vortex duel, before the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking begins, it’s your last chance. If the powerful Celestial Unrestricted behind you don’t show up, don’t blame me for wiping you all out."

With that, Long Ye Gui Feng angrily flicked his sleeves and departed with hands behind his back.

Wen Ping remained where he was, quietly watching him, feeling quite helpless in his heart: I just want to simply change this world, why are there always people stepping up to cause trouble, bringing inexplicable hassles.

"Alas..."

Thinking of this, Wen Ping could only sigh helplessly, then sat back down.

It’s not that he wants to kill.

It’s just that people keep coming to him!

Little did they know, this sigh caused those who had been worried about the Immortal Sect to suddenly feel a sense of despair.

"Sect Leader Wen just wants to start a new era, what’s wrong with that?"

"The Thousand Crafts Sect’s Luo Qianshan went looking for trouble himself. If they die due to lack of skill, who can they blame? Do the people from the Thousand Crafts Sect have any sense of reason? If it were me, I’d be too embarrassed to come knocking!"

"Sect Leader Wen actually sighed; it’s clear he is quite helpless too. Is this the fate of a pioneer? Are pioneers truly as history states, destined to always stand at the intersection of the old and new eras, belonging neither to the old nor to the new?"

The people of Divine Flight City whispered among themselves, showing expressions full of helplessness, feeling sympathy for the Immortal Sect, for Sect Leader Wen, and also for Master Zi Ran.

Long Ye and Qing Qian were the same, their faces showing a lot of regret.

Of course, their regrets were different.

Long Ye simply regretted that Luo Ye Guifeng came too quickly; otherwise, given some time, the Purple Treasure Pavilion could have changed the Primordial Yang Domain.

Still, the same phrase.

Luo Ye Guifeng came too quickly.

There was not a single chance given to the Immortal Sect.

And Qing Qian’s regret was merely that she had no more backing to rely on; she would again lead a life pressed by the Thousand Crafts Sect until she could hardly breathe.

She also regretted Zi Ran’s unwillingness to return to Zeming Palace.

Otherwise, Zi Ran, who mastered the Vortex New Dao, just needed some time, and she could certainly become the tool for Zeming Palace to counter the Thousand Crafts Sect!

"Sect Leader Wen, do you need help?"

Celestial String asked.

"Ignore him. After the vortex duel ends, if the people of the Thousand Crafts Sect refuse to leave Divine Flight City, you can help me send them away." Wen Ping was well aware of Celestial String’s enthusiasm, so he unreservedly made use of it.

Celestial String immediately patted his chest and promised: "Sect Leader Wen, rest assured, leave this matter to me. At that time, Xu Nian and the others will also give their full support."

"Sect Leader Wen, Xu Nian will definitely give full support!"

Seeing her ancestor had spoken, Xu Nian quickly stood out to agree.

Deep down, she did not want to get involved in this mess, afraid of earning the Thousand Crafts Sect’s resentment, but the ancestor’s will could not be defied!

Upon hearing the words of the three, Lin Yehong couldn’t help a derisive smile, influenced by Luo Ye Guifeng’s presence, contemptuously sneering at Zi Ran: "Zeming Palace’s abandoned disciple, do you really think cultivating the so-called Vortex New Dao allows you to reach the heavens in one step? Truly a frog in a well!"

"So you were just a discarded disciple of Zeming Palace; I thought you were some formidable character. Wait, I remember these years Zeming Palace had one abandoned disciple who seems to hold the record for the worst time breaking the Realm of Breaking the Second Vortex – a whole hundred years?" Luo Ye Guifeng looked at Zi Ran with disdain and deliberately humiliated her.

The same actions naturally aimed to humiliate the Immortal Sect!

But although others at the Immortal Sect were somewhat agitated, Sect Leader Wen Ping remained unmoved, constantly watching Zi Ran.

At that moment, Wen Ping was really curious about Zi Ran’s reaction.

It’s clear this was a sore spot for Zi Ran; though faded over the years, the heart’s wound doesn’t heal easily.

As a sect leader, building a Vortex Art Palace for Zi Ran, or an even stronger structure than the Vortex Art Palace, was not difficult— a bit of harsh decision-making would achieve it.

Yet he couldn’t help Zi Ran heal the old wounds nor could he eliminate everyone aware of this affair, so Zi Ran’s choice was crucial. Would she continue avoiding, letting time fade it, or confront it directly?

The next moment, Zi Ran spoke.

She made her choice!

"I feel shame; indeed, my talent on the Vortex Dao was abysmal in the past, essentially bad enough to be reprehensible, thus expelled from Zeming Palace. Turning and shifting for over a hundred years, I always achieved nothing, luckily joined the Immortal Sect, encountered the Vortex New Dao, and only then my studies came to fruition." Zi Ran spoke calmly, seeming to not care about her past at all.

After saying this, she immediately spoke to everyone: "Therefore, I advise you all, if you gain nothing in cultivation of Vein Technique or Vortex Dao, you might as well venture into the Master’s Dao Maze in the Red Domain; if you pass through, you can join the Immortal Sect. In the Immortal Sect, you have more choices, not necessarily bound to cultivate Meridian Gate, nor have to walk the path of Vortex Dao. Our sect’s Elder Yun, who won first place in the Red Domain on the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking, did not cultivate the Meridian Gate. If you don’t believe, ask the Red Domain Master!"

Jun Tianyi Gu was handling the situation, quickly stood to assist, "Elder Zi Ran speaks truth, indeed Elder Yun of Immortal Sect was not cultivating Meridian Gate but seized the first spot in Red Domain with an invincible stance."

Gaining Jun Tianyi Gu’s confirmation, those previously doubtful exploded in uproar.

With the rising and falling discussions, Wen Ping nodded satisfactorily, of course, Wen Ping’s satisfaction lay only in Zi Ran’s counterattack.

Seems he worried unnecessarily.

After experiencing the Thousand Layers and over a hundred years of time, how could Master Zi Ran still be troubled by past matters?

But seeing many voices wanting to join the Immortal Sect, Lin Yehong and Luo Ye Guifeng’s expressions changed abruptly, their mocking and taunting not working, instead allowing Zi Ran to shine, which infuriated them: "Nonsense, if you don’t cultivate Meridian Gate, what do you cultivate?"

Zi Ran smiled helplessly, looking at Lin Yehong and the Celestial Unrestricted powerhouse Luo Ye Guifeng with a compassionate gaze, and then said: "You’ll know soon. Let’s not waste words, let’s start, let this frog in a well experience your ten divine arts."
