System's Super Sect Chapter 894 - 840: Another Earth Unrestricted Expert Turned

Currently, every Sect mission gets accepted at the Sect Task Hall. Wen Ping still hasn’t attempted issuing one himself.

Upon reflection now, it feels like a key step was overlooked.

The system answered: "Of course, but the exact Sect Task Points reward cannot be set by the host."

"So, you handle that?"

"The system assesses mission difficulty using big data and fairly assigns matching Sect Task Points as rewards."

"And for rescuing Yijian?"

"Calculation in progress... Saving Earth Unrestricted Expert Yijian from Jianshui City grants 500 Sect Task Points. Killing Shui Yi Fang's Sect Leader Long Men or Jian Chenxin adds another 500 Sect Task Points each."

Wen Ping gave a nod.

One mission yielding 1500 Sect Task Points—truly generous from the system.

Right then, Huaikong's question snapped Wen Ping from his reverie: "Sect Leader, what's our next move?"

Wen Ping stirred as if rousing from a dream and replied, "Next, take on more Sect missions, then head into Fa Yuan Valley's Final Forbidden Area. By the way, those Demon Pills are strewn throughout Fa Yuan Valley's Final Forbidden Area—a golden chance for your Demon Race!"

Hearing the Demon Pills hailed from Fa Yuan Valley's Final Forbidden Area, all four demons lit up with joy; even ancient Wood Dragon felt a hidden thrill.

Noticing their ecstatic faces, Wen Ping cautioned at once, "Remember, Fa Yuan Valley spares you from death just once daily. The Final Forbidden Area brims with perils that could claim lives anytime. Stay within your limits. Wood Dragon, despite your strength, peril still lurks inside—don't get reckless."

The four demons nodded swiftly.

Solemnity etched their faces.

Even the Upper Realm proves deadly to enter.

How horrifying must the Final Forbidden Area be!

As the demons pondered deeply, Wen Ping turned to Wood Dragon: "Wood Dragon, here's your task. Head to Jianshui City, rescue named Earth Unrestricted Expert Yijian for 500 Sect Task Points. Slay Long Men Sect Leader Lei Qianshan or Shui Yi Fang's Sect Leader Jian Chenxin, and claim an extra 500 Sect Task Points per kill."

"Sect Leader, count me in!"

Sect Task Points on offer—Wood Dragon jumped at it eagerly.

One Final Forbidden Area entry devours 100 Sect Task Points; scraping together even 100 via standard missions is no easy feat.

How could Wood Dragon refuse such a rewarding quest?

The other three demons gazed enviously yet stayed silent, since the Sect Leader had amply provided for them too—no cause for jealousy toward Wood Dragon.

...

Jianshui City.

Long Men's promotion has revealed Yijian, Water Academy's dean, as a Jinzhilou member.

Launched by Jinzhilou, Immortal Daily gains widespread recognition.

In essence, all grasp that Long Men aims to assert dominance, striking at Jianshui City's Jinzhilou branch to sever its reach.

Within a single day, this buzz spread to everyone, young and old!

Yi Yi, disguised as a man, strolled the streets, ear tuned to endless chatter.

"Who'd have thought Water Academy senior Yijian joined Jinzhilou—such a shock."

"Displays real boldness."

"What a shame Yijian got slain. Wonder if Immortal Daily keeps going. I've devoured dozens of issues lately; each read hooks deeper."

"Same here! Immortal Daily lets us glimpse the world from home—a marvel. Jinzhilou's creation shines brightest. Pity senior Yijian crossed paths with Long Men's Leader."

"Self-inflicted doom, no one else to fault. Daring antics under Long Men's watch? That's suicide."

"Mere traitor—good riddance. Jinzhilou faces uprooting soon enough."

Pity mingled with curses.

Those barbs stung Yi Yi's heart; she knew her father acted not for gain, but for these very folk.

Yet good deeds meet scorn!

Yi Yi hastened onward, slipped into a tavern, and per Sound Transmission Stone guidance, entered a private room.

One figure occupied the space.

A refined youth by the window, idly fanning himself with a paper fan to stir the air. Without Perception scan or fan inscription check, he'd pass for an ordinary scholar.

A scholar too frail for even a fowl!

But spotting the fan's script, Yi Yi froze in stunned silence.

Two characters—Ye Wuhuan!

Signifying Wuhuan Sect's Sect Leader—Ye Wuhuan.

Unlike Long Men under Shui Yi Fang, his Wuhuan Sect ranks among Shui Yi Fang's Five-star Influences.

Yet per Sound Transmission Stone, a Jinzhilou Earth Unrestricted Expert would safeguard her.

Has Ye Wuhuan joined Jinzhilou too?

"Senior?"

Yi Yi whispered softly.

Ye Wuhuan turned with elegant poise, smiling: "Speak nothing, ask nothing; we hole up here a few days. They've dispatched rescuers for your father—they'll hit Jianshui City soon, securing his safety."

Joy bloomed on Yi Yi's face; she bowed in thanks: "Gratitude, senior!"

"Save thanks for the one yet to arrive."

Ye Wuhuan grinned, offered shared chopsticks, urging her to dine.

As Yi Yi settled, a wicked smirk ghosted Ye Wuhuan's lips, shattering his suave facade briefly.

Shui Yi Fang!

Time to settle scores!

Soon!

The smirk faded; Ye Wuhuan resumed his polished charm, sat smiling, poured wine, sipped leisurely, and at times belted poetry with fervor—pure literati flair.

...

Over at Long Men.

Since caging Yijian, Long Men forces have hounded him with torment and probes, desperate for Jinzhilou secrets.

But to Yijian, Jinzhilou embodies faith now.

Faith he won't betray.

No matter Long Men's brutal torments, not a syllable escapes him.

Lei Qianshan himself steps in—not to strike or quiz, but to slay before Yijian's eyes.

Slaying Water Academy folk!

And Yijian's kin who failed to flee!

"That daughter of yours, Yi Yi, ignored your warning—still lurking in Jianshui City. My men scour everywhere; they'll nab her shortly. Fair warning, your girl's a beauty unmatched—killing her before you feels almost wasteful."

Lei Qianshan showed no smugness, merely eyed Yijian with icy detachment.

"Will she show on execution day? Rush to save you? Or just weep?"

Three sharp queries in succession ignited Yijian's savage roar.

Daughter mentioned, and he exploded.

"Lei Qianshan, you'll meet a gruesome end! A gruesome end!"

He dreads neither pain nor demise for himself, but his daughter's peril? Unbearable.

She's his wife's final gift!

He vowed life's defense for this jewel!
