Wen Ping orchestrated Wuqi King's death to appear accidental and unrelated to the Immortal Sect. He then used necromancy to manipulate Wuqi King's corpse, creating a public scene to distance his sect from the event before Wuqi King's life crystal shattered in You Country, signaling his demise.

The events occurring within the royal city are causing the already troubled You Country Capital to boil over.

This news, like spring rain, has permeated through the tightly guarded royal city, rumored to be impenetrable. Overnight, the whole city knows!

On this night, several King-Sealing Experts rushed into the royal city.

On this night, the most mysterious Divine Shadow Guard of a thousand riders left the city overnight.

The one responsible for all this, Pingping, is presently sitting beside Prince Longyang, enjoying the exceptional wine he brought for the occasion.

A cup in the belly, the body feels like fire.

Two cups in the belly outperform a thousand days of arduous training.

Prince Longyang, with a hint of reluctance and distress, said, "Sect Leader Wen, this scarlet Celestial River Wine is a thousand-year vintage. The entire You Country only possesses ten casks. Among them, seven are in the royal city, and only three are outside the royal city. I only have one cask!"

Pingping smiled without speaking.

He trusted Prince Longyang’s words.

But if one thought he could win favor with merely a cask of wine, that was somewhat wishful.

Is the Viewing Room’s cola inferior to this wine?

Can this wine improve magic proficiency?

The Viewing Room’s cola can!

After another sip, Pingping merely remarked, "It is indeed good wine."

Prince Longyang, seeing this, discreetly concealed his pained expression because he noticed Pingping’s indifference towards this cask of wine.

Fortunately, his return trip was not solely for preparing this extraordinary vintage.

Prince Longyang continued, "Sect Leader Wen, I’ve heard your Immortal Daily’s dissemination outside the Primordial Yang Domain is encountering resistance?"

"It’s hardly resistance, merely some clowns," Pingping calmly replied.

"Naturally. Considering the Immortal Sect’s power, those clowns attempting to block the spread of the Immortal Daily is like a mantis trying to stop a cart," Prince Longyang agreed. "However, having less trouble will undoubtedly save Sect Leader Wen some worry."

As he spoke, Prince Longyang retrieved a Golden Scroll from his bosom!

Before Pingping could speak, Prince Longyang continued, "For my own people, I am never stingy. This is the first meeting gift from me!"

With that, the Golden Scroll was slowly unfurled.

Pingping looked carefully, and couldn’t help but reveal a trace of a smile.

Prince Longyang’s first gift was truly something he couldn’t refuse.

Seeing Pingping’s smile, Prince Longyang instantly knew he had secured his favor and joyfully said, "The Sovereign personally ordered, within You Country, the Immortal Daily can be freely disseminated, and governmental or military parties may not interfere. At my suggestion, the Sovereign also allowed the establishment of a newsstand in every city by the House of All Knowledge. This way, even those sects and family forces with ill intentions can’t stir up much trouble!"

"Your Highness is considerate."

Well.

This first meeting gift was indeed something he couldn’t refuse.

Seeing the Immortal Daily spreading throughout You Country, and even Heaven-Gazing Gorge was something he truly wished for. Without the Sovereign’s Golden Scroll, the Immortal Sect estimated they would need a longer time to achieve this feat. After all, outside the Primordial Yang Domain, the Immortal Sect’s word didn’t hold sway.

With the Sovereign’s Golden Scroll, the House of All Knowledge can quickly complete the layout in You Country. By then, people can know about the world’s affairs without leaving their homes!

This is what he intends to leave for this world!

He’ll remember Prince Longyang’s gift!

In the future, if Prince Longyang needs assistance, he will lend a hand within his ability.

Prince Longyang smiled, "Sect Leader Wen need not be polite. Since you unwaveringly chose me, I certainly won’t mistreat you."

"Then I’ll accept this gift." Pingping grasped the Golden Scroll and, after glancing at it again, stored it in his Storage Ring.

Before Pingping could lift his head, Prince Longyang retrieved another item from his Storage Ring—a large leather scroll!

"This is the second gift from me to Sect Leader Wen. With this, whether it’s Zeming Palace or the Thousand Crafts Sect, if they want revenge, they’ll have to weigh their options! Even if they enlist the royal family’s King-Sealing Experts!"

As he took out the leather scroll, Prince Longyang’s face showed pride.

This second gift was undoubtedly a grand present he prepared.

Something that could put a pause to the conflict between the Purple Treasure Pavilion, Thousand Crafts Sect, and Zeming Palace!

Seeing this, Pingping smiled helplessly.

Well.

Such a generous person.

Who could possibly hold any unfavorable feelings towards him?

"What is this?"

Immediately, Prince Longyang set up a Sound Insulation Barrier around them and, with an excited look, unfurled the leather scroll, exclaiming: "This is a purchase contract personally stamped by the Sovereign! Back at your sect’s Purple Treasure Pavilion auction in Divine Flight City, they sold a Five-Vortex Vortex Map with special abilities for a certain amount of White Crystal. The royal family of You Country is willing to buy at twice the price, and a total of fifty sheets at once!"

What does it mean for the Sovereign to personally purchase the Purple Treasure Pavilion Vortex Map?

It signifies that the Purple Treasure Pavilion is acknowledged by the Sovereign!

Whether it’s Zeming Palace or the Thousand Crafts Sect, they must consider the Sovereign’s wrath if they intend to retaliate against the Purple Treasure Pavilion.

After all, the only ones who can produce Vortex Maps with special abilities are the Purple Treasure Pavilion.

With this contract in place, the Purple Treasure Pavilion, though not outside the Primordial Yang Domain, stands at the pinnacle of You Country, representing the pinnacle of Vortex Dao.

This gift supersedes the previous Golden Scroll tenfold!

However, after Prince Longyang finished his excited introduction, Pingping’s expression froze, and the joy on his face slowly vanished.

Pingping responded indifferently, "Your Highness, haven’t you inquired about the Purple Treasure Pavilion’s rules for selling Vortex Maps?"

What a joke.

Sell you fifty at once?

Let fifty of your Celestial Unrestricted experts in You Country enhance their power.

If the Immortal Sect and You Country suddenly fall out, wouldn’t these fifty people become my enemies?

Prince Longyang saw the smile on Wang Ping’s face abruptly disappear, and his tone unexpectedly carried a hint of indifference, causing his heart to immediately sink.

Oh no!

Did it backfire?

Prince Longyang hurriedly asked, "Sect Leader Wang, is it true that Purple Treasure Pavilion’s rules treat everyone equally?"

"Yes, the same for everyone."

Wang Ping calmly responded.

Prince Longyang quickly continued, "Sect Leader Wang, can’t you change it a bit? I promise not to let outsiders find out."

Wait.

Prince Longyang just finished saying this and realized something was off.

Keeping it from outsiders, how could Purple Treasure Pavilion rise to the pinnacle of the You Country’s Vortex Dao?

Prince Longyang hurriedly revised his statement, "Sect Leader Wang, how about three times the price!"

He wanted to try to move Wang Ping with White Crystal.

Even if it meant paying from his own pocket!

After all, if it’s three times the price, one Five-Vortex Vortex Map would cost over 60 million White Crystal!

Fifty maps together would be an astronomical figure.

In You Country, apart from the Royal Family, no other power could afford it.

Even King-Sealing experts don’t have such wealth!

"Increasing the money won’t work either, it’s Purple Treasure Pavilion’s rules. If this is your second grand gift, I can only advise you to take it back."

Wang Ping maintained a serious expression with no room for negotiation.

Seeing this, Prince Longyang quickly corrected, "No, no, this isn’t the second gift I prepared for Sect Leader Wang."

With that, Prince Longyang felt a sense of helplessness.

What he believed to be a grand gift!

Turned out to be so awkward.

If even three times the price couldn’t persuade Wang Ping to change it, then these rules must have been set by the predecessor behind Purple Treasure Pavilion, whom he had no authority to change.

It’s understandable for the predecessor who created the Vortex New Dao to have peculiar rules.

This deal didn’t go through, at worst, he can think of an excuse when returning to the Capital City to muddle through. But if this matter results in distance between the two, that would be troublesome.

After all, when he ascends to the position of Sovereign, he’ll greatly need the support of the Immortal Sect. Any distance between them would allow other Royal Family King-Sealings to take advantage.

Prince Longyang quickly stored the contract in the Storage Ring, then explained, "Sect Leader Wang, this trip was too rushed. The second greeting gift is still being prepared, give me some time, before the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking ends, I will personally deliver it!"

"Then I’ll thank Your Highness in advance." Since Prince Longyang didn’t turn hostile after the refusal of the contract deal, there’s no need for him to prepare for hostility.

Seeing Wang Ping’s expression gradually relax, Prince Longyang finally breathed a sigh of relief, squeezing out a bit of a smile, "Sect Leader Wang, don’t be so formal. The upcoming matters will rely on Sect Leader Wang, although there are five years before the Sovereign changes, the bloody storm has already begun."

"If needed, Your Highness can send me a message."

Wang Ping responded.

Prince Longyang was overjoyed, nodding immediately, "Don’t worry, Sect Leader Wang, trivial matters definitely won’t trouble you, only when major problems arise, will I need your help."

"Alright."

Wang Ping nodded.

No better than this.

Originally, he intended to help Prince Longyang once.

If Prince Longyang can assist him in the future, then it’s no harm to help once more.

After all, they aren’t enemies now.

Prince Longyang proceeded to remind, "Within these five years, the Royal Family King-Sealing experts will certainly try to weaken each other’s power, Sect Leader Wang should be cautious! If anyone seeks cooperation with you, no matter what they offer, I’ll double it!"

"I won’t collaborate with others, but I also need to remind Your Highness that currently the friendship between Your Highness and my Sect only allows my Sect to act once."

Wang Ping calmly said, although it caused Prince Longyang’s expression to tense, looking a bit ugly, "Sect Leader Wang, this..."

"But for this one chance, if Your Highness wants to kill a King-Sealing expert, that’s also possible." Wang Ping’s words suddenly made Prince Longyang’s face brighten with joy.

If he can kill a King-Sealing!

Once is enough!

Moreover, Wang Ping just mentioned that it was based on their current friendship.

In the future, if the friendship deepens, the Immortal Sect will surely be willing to assist again, as long as I have enough sincerity, enough generosity!

(Indeed, it’s extra.

Extra two hundred words.

Not writing anymore, not writing anymore.

Exam tomorrow, need to sleep early because I have to get up early tomorrow.)
