System's Super Sect Chapter 1240 - 1090: Long Haomiao’s Decision

Long Family Residence.

"Second Brother, why are you so certain that the Immortal Sect will surely accept our goodwill?" In the meeting hall, a man with a jade-like complexion, bright eyes, and teeth, whose gaze was as brilliant as the stars, slowly spoke, expressing his doubt.

This man was exceptionally graceful, radiating an aura of heroism rarely seen in others.

Clad in a black gold robe, his entire presence exuded a unique charm, making him stand out as the brightest star in the night sky, causing everyone around to pale in comparison.

He was the eldest son of the Long Family—Long Haomiao!

After Long Haomiao expressed his doubt, Long Ye quickly explained, "Big Brother, you must trust me, your second brother wouldn’t deceive you. As for why exactly, I can’t say because there are things I don’t know how to articulate, but all in all, aligning with the Immortal Sect will definitely be beneficial for our Long Family without any harm."

Of course.

At this point, Long Ye wanted to add a word.

If we maintain a good relationship with the Immortal Sect, considering the relationship between the Sect Leader and Third Sister, the Immortal Sect would be our Long Family’s most reliable ally in the future!

There’s no way they’d ever betray the Long Family!

Because someone like Wen Ping, who values family, wouldn’t betray his own family.

However, seeing Long Ye’s anxious and firm response, Long Haomiao could only smile helplessly, seemingly becoming more skeptical of Long Ye’s words. After laughing, he slowly stood up, folded his hands behind his back, and began pacing around the meeting hall.

He was hesitating!

Seeing this, Long Ye became a bit flustered and quickly urged, "Big Brother, don’t hesitate, opportunities do not wait for anyone."

Goodness.

An ally like this...

No, missing out on such a powerful support...

You’d regret it for a lifetime!

The growth speed of the Immortal Sect is so rapid, if you hesitate for a while, they might not even look at the Long Family anymore.

In the future, they might consider Third Sister’s relationship and offer the Long Family some help, but that assistance would be extremely limited.

After all, the Long Family was very unfriendly to the Wen Family before.

As Long Ye urged and Long Haomiao paced, three elderly Long Family elders, their hair as white as snow and frail-looking, spoke up in the meeting hall.

"Based on the current power demonstrated by the Immortal Sect, it is already rivaling our Long Family. Now that they’ve secured the backing of the Great Domain Master, their future rise is almost inevitable."

"However, retaliation from Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect will certainly come. Si Haixian, as the Great Domain Master, naturally doesn’t fear the Thousand Crafts Sect or Zeming Palace, but truly protecting the Immortal Sect from these forces is easier said than done."

"That’s a valid point! If what Long Ye says is true, and the Vortex Map and Vortex Killing Artifact from Purple Treasure Pavilion can herald a new era, then Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect will definitely strive to destroy Purple Treasure Pavilion and acquire the Vortex New Dao, potentially even forming a temporary alliance just to eliminate the threats of the Immortal Sect and Purple Treasure Pavilion. Haomiao, you should know this well; back in the Primordial Yang Domain, there were more than a handful of people more talented than you, but they all perished, and only you survived."

With the elders’ words, it was like a calming pill for Long Haomiao, and his pacing came to an abrupt halt.

"The elders speak wisely. We indeed should maintain good relations with the Immortal Sect, but not to the extent of turning them into an ally of our Long Family as Long Ye suggested. If at that time the Great Domain Master is unable to protect the Immortal Sect from Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect, that calamity will certainly impact our Long Family. I can’t take this risk, nor can the Long Family."

With Long Haomiao’s words, Long Ye was dumbfounded.

He was about to speak again, to persuade with gentle words, but was met with a cold stare from Long Haomiao and a cold reprimand, "Your decision is too radical; don’t bring it up again in the future. Continue maintaining our current state. Don’t publicly stand with the enemies of the Immortal Sect, but don’t get too close to them either; this way, we have flexibility."

"Fine, suit yourself." Long Ye was a bit speechless, feeling weary.

He didn’t bother to continue speaking.

Fine.

Whatever.

Anyway, I’m planning to join the Immortal Sect in the future.

...

The next day.

Six Fang Street witnessed an unprecedented bustle, with nearly half of the people from Divine Flight City gathering toward North City and Six Fang Street.

All awaited the start of tonight’s auction!

Jun Tianyi, especially, arrived early at the Purple Treasure Pavilion, very happily helping Zi Ran to prepare for tonight’s auction.

As all his sins and neglect had been casually brushed away by the Great Domain Master, and the Long Family’s relentless accusations against him were dismissed promptly.

Not only that, he received praise from the Great Domain Master.

All because of the Immortal Sect!

So yesterday, he secretly swore to cling tightly to the Immortal Sect’s support, to follow its lead in the Red Domain in the future.

"Master Zi Ran, you go rest; I’ll take care of this," Jun Tianyi said, snatching the auction decoration from Zi Ran’s hand.

Then, voices of Jun Tianyi’s resounded continuously within the Purple Treasure Pavilion, as if Master Zi Ran had taken on a new disciple.

"Master Zi Ran, I’ll do this!"

"Master Zi Ran, let me, let me!"

"Master Zi Ran, put it down and leave it to me!"

Seeing this, H Lan noticed someone trying to take jobs away in front of his master, triggering his temper.

But considering the other person was a Domain Master.

He couldn’t win in a fight.

He had to give up helplessly.

At the same time, Tian Xian, whose injuries had fully healed, was supporting You Yue on the top floor corridor of the Purple Treasure Pavilion, overlooking it.

"The Purple Treasure Pavilion might be small now, but given time, it will surely surpass Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect," You Yue mused.

Tian Xian laughed along, "You Yue Master, you’re wrong; surpassing Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect was never the Sect Leader’s goal."

"Hmm?"

You Yue furrowed her brows.

Tian Xian responded with a smile, "The Sect Leader’s ambition is to use the Purple Treasure Pavilion to change You Country, even alter Heaven-Gazing Gorge, and this world!"

You Yue paused briefly, then laughed at herself helplessly, "It seems I was looking at the sky from the bottom of a well."

Hearing this, Tian Xian also shook his head with a smile.

Wasn’t he also doing the same before?

But after the laughter, Celestial String’s thoughts returned to the past few days’ concerns about Celestial Industry and Feng Qian.

He had already learned from Xu Nian about the great battle outside Divine Flight City two days ago, and the disappearance of Celestial Industry and Feng Qian afterward.

Who was that mysterious strong figure? It was unknown.

But the only thing for sure is that neither Celestial Industry nor Feng Qian has returned by now. Either they are dead or they are pursuing that mysterious figure.

Yesterday and today, he kept wondering whether this strong figure could be the Sect Leader?

But the Sect Leader is only at Heaven Unrestricted Lower Realm.

And Feng Qian is among the top ten Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm experts in You Country.

The two are simply not on the same level.

But if it’s not the Sect Leader, then who could it be?

He originally wanted to ask the Sect Leader directly, but the Sect Leader had been cultivating within the Sect these past two days, so he couldn’t be reached, leaving Celestial String to his own speculations.

At this moment, a flash of white light suddenly descended from the sky, landing on the top floor.

Boom—

Out from the white light walked Pingping, and Celestial String hurried upstairs to greet him.

As soon as Pingping appeared at the Immortal Sect, several astonishing streaks of light flickered above Divine Flight City, swiftly heading toward the Purple Treasure Pavilion.

The first and second streaks of light came from the City Lord’s Mansion.

The third, fourth, and fifth came from three inns in Divine Flight City.

The sixth streak of light came from the Celestial Extinction City’s outpost.

These six individuals were: the Great Domain Master Si Haixian, Divine Flight City’s City Lord Yan Lai; while the other three were Heaven Unrestricted experts in seclusion within the Primordial Yang Domain, invited by Yan Lai.

The last one was naturally the Celestial Extinction City Lord Guan Ze!

Of course, they came rushing due to Pingping.

But not entirely because of Pingping.

Because, at this moment, in the sky over Divine Flight City, the seventh, eighth, and ninth streaks of light appeared.

From Zeming Trading Company!

Following closely were the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth streaks.

They came from the Thousand Crafts Sect branch!

Long Haomiao and others, who were at the Long Family’s outpost discussing tonight’s auction matters, immediately rushed outside upon sensing the numerous Heaven Unrestricted experts’ aura in the sky, then all frowned as they gazed into the distance.

After a while, Long Haomiao said to Long Ye, who came running at the foot of the stairs: "As expected, the experts from Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect won’t let the Immortal Sect smoothly hold this auction. Second brother, now do you understand why I made the decision earlier?"

Then, the three clan elders beside Long Haomiao also spoke one after another.

"More than ten Heaven Unrestricted experts gathering in Divine Flight City, it wasn’t this lively even during the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking in the Primordial Yang Domain."

"Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect both sent Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm experts. Looks like their purpose is clear - to stop the Immortal Sect from hosting this auction."

"Whether the auction can take place, or even whether the Immortal Sect can overcome this crisis, is still uncertain. Luckily, we didn’t let the Vortex Map and Vortex Killing Artifact, with their special abilities, cloud our judgment like Long Ye did."

Long Ye, listening to the four from below, chuckled silently and then turned into a streak of light rushing toward the Purple Treasure Pavilion.

He didn’t want to argue.

He only believed that one day the clan elders and his brother would regret it.

Isn’t it just the Middle Realm?

In that Demon Immortal Thunder Tribulation he witnessed that day, the Middle Realm was nothing but cannon fodder.

As Long Ye rushed to the Purple Treasure Pavilion, twelve Heaven Unrestricted experts had already stopped around the Purple Treasure Pavilion, divided into four groups.

The Great Domain Master and Yan Lai were together.

The other three Heaven Unrestricted experts and the Celestial Extinction City Lord Guan Ze stood in one position.

The rest were from Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect.

The Zeming Palace side had a total of three people.

Two Heaven Unrestricted Lower Realm.

One Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm.

The Thousand Crafts Sect side was similar.

At this moment, Yan Lai immediately entered the Purple Treasure Pavilion, stopping Pingping and Celestial String who were about to face the numerous Heaven Unrestricted experts in the corridor, advising: "The Great Domain Master asks you not to go out. He will handle all the problems. Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect don’t come with good intentions. Going out now will only make things more troublesome."

Pingping calmly refused: "I appreciate the Great Domain Master’s goodwill, but I, Pingping, do not like to owe too much to others, and I have been waiting for them for a long time."

"Waiting for them for a long time?"

Yan Lai was taken aback.

In his moment of surprise, a flash of white light fell from the sky.

Having just finished cultivating, the sword demon, covered in blood, walked out from the white light and under the watchful eyes of the crowd, walked over to Pingping’s side.

Upon standing next to Pingping, he suddenly asked.

"Sect Leader, isn’t the Elder Wood Dragon coming?"

"He can’t come."

Pingping calmly replied.

Upon hearing that Wood Dragon couldn’t come, a manic smile appeared at the corner of the sword demon’s mouth, and then he said: "His absence suits me perfectly!"

(Second update.

Hehe.

As for whether there will be a third update.

Take a guess.)
