System's Super Sect-Chapter 437 - 435, Palace Guard

"The most expensive are the Tingyu Pavilion and the Flying Ship Construction House."

With the anticipation of upgrading the Tingyu Pavilion, Wen Ping sat down.

The whole process took only a mere dozen seconds.

But Wen Ping felt as if a whole day had passed, because if it was the Tingyu Pavilion being upgraded, that would mean earning over a thousand White Crystals — the upgrade price difference between it and the Flying Ship Construction House was nearly tenfold.

"Tingyu Pavilion... Tingyu Pavilion..."

Involuntarily, Wen Ping shouted out.

The next moment, a pop-up appeared.

[Building Upgrade: Flying Ship Construction House.]

"Uh..."

Wen Ping fell silent.

Looking at those two blue Palace Guards, he suddenly felt the urge to teach them a lesson; these "Husky" type demons need a good lesson!

Otherwise, today they dismantle the house, tomorrow they might...

"Sigh, forget it, this is fate, the Flying Ship Construction House was destined to be upgraded." Wen Ping cleared his thoughts and then asked the system, "System, what new features will appear after the Flying Ship Construction House is upgraded?"

[Flying Ship Construction House upgrading...]

[Time remaining for upgrade: 100 hours.]

[After the upgrade, the Flying Ship’s cannons, hull, and sails can all have comprehensive level enhancements.]

Looking at the upgrade information from the system, Wen Ping accepted this result as a fact. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Upgrading the Flying Ship, why not.

Currently, the Flying Ship’s destructive power is not necessarily inferior to the Evil Spirit Knight; in some ways, the Flying Ship’s Explosive Flame Star Chasing Cannon is quite useful — after all, it is an AOE attack, a so-called area of effect damage.

Once the Task Hall is built, take on random building upgrade tasks like crazy, and sooner or later it’ll be the Tingyu Pavilion.

"System, retrieve the Task Hall."

"Please confirm the construction area, Host."

With that, the Immortal Sect map appeared before his eyes.

Wen Ping didn’t hesitate, directly choosing a location on Yunlan Mountain for the Task Hall construction; for this kind of building, he felt it should be next to the Main Hall.

[Task Hall under construction...]

[Time remaining: 24 hours.]

[Special Ability: Random tasks offering various rewards, available for everyone in the sect to accept.]

"Everyone can accept?"

Wen Ping always thought the Task Hall was there to serve him.

The system responded, "Yes, the Task Hall is a public building."

"So what will the rewards be for tasks taken by disciples and elders?"

"For non-hosts, all accepted tasks are random tasks, and rewards could be the currency of this world: Gold Coins, White Crystals, Celestial Materials and Treasures; they could also be rewards from special buildings or even things from the ’Immortal Slayer’ world in the Viewing Room. In short, all rewards are random, fundamentally different from the host’s autonomous selection."

"Understood."

Wen Ping nodded and then closed the map.

The Task Hall wouldn’t be constructed for another 24 hours, so Wen Ping decided to find a place for these two little fellows to stay first.

Despite being called Palace Guards, having the body of a crocodile, they definitely needed water.

"Might as well put them in the dormitory." Let them live with the Flood Dragon, so the Flood Dragon has a companion too, "System, putting the Palace Guards with the Flood Dragon won’t cause a fight, right?"

"The Flood Dragon is a mature demon and won’t bicker with two little babies."

"Alright."

After responding, Wen Ping gave two quick pats on the heads of the two Palace Guards.

Their blue eyes opened wide, without the ferocity of their mother, maybe because they were just born, the watery clear eyes were rather cute.

But it seems Huskies are like this too!

"Mm ah~"

Two babyish and peculiar sounds were heard.

It sounded somewhat like a frog’s croak, but there were some differences.

"Their call is rather pleasant," Wen Ping smiled warmly, grabbing one in each hand and heading towards the Tingyu Pavilion.

However, along the way, they continuously made "Mm ah~" sounds.

"Could they be hungry?"

Thinking of this, Wen Ping quickly took out some roasted meat from his Storage Ring, which he had previously made on the Flying Ship but didn’t finish. But when he offered it, the two little ones didn’t seem interested.

"With bodies like crocodiles, and you don’t eat meat, what do you two want? Planning to be like Huskies and eat bitter melon?" Wen Ping had no choice but to put the meat away and asked the system, "System, what do they eat?"

For these creatures from a previous era, only the system might know what they like to eat.

The system responded, "Fire Spirit Crystals and White Crystals, which contain energy, can all be consumed by them. They can extract growth energy from these; conversely, if not fed for a long time, their bodies will deplete their energy, leading to a decline in their strength."

"Feed them Fire Spirit Crystals first."

Hastily, Wen Ping fetched two Fire Spirit Crystals from his Storage Ring.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he took them out, the two little fellows came scooting over, each taking a crystal and crunching it in mid-air.

After eating, they still made "Mm ah mm ah" sounds wanting more.

"I finally understand why their mother is a great demon of the Profound Realm."

That Secret Realm had nothing.

This species just loves expensive stuff.

After feeding two more, Wen Ping reached the dormitory area and put the two little ones into the water.

The moment they entered the water, the Flood Dragon under the pool suddenly stirred, and a dull dragon roar echoed.

"What’s wrong with the Flood Dragon?"

Wen Ping murmured to himself, not having the chance to ask the system before Yang Lele and the others arrived.

They were in the room introducing the Immortal Sect to Wanyan and Lan Peng, but the Flood Dragon’s roar was too attention-grabbing.

"Sect Leader, what are those?"

Yang Lele pointed to the two Palace Guards swimming in the water, and asked.

"Two Palace Guards, from now on you’ll be living with them... Remember, do not let them into the house, or face the consequences yourself." Wen Ping cautioned, standing up from the water’s edge.

"They’re kind of cute."

Yang Xi and the others immediately came over, love-struck.

However, Zhao Qing and Huai Ye, being demons, instantly perceived the unusual aura of the Palace Guards, which felt very familiar.

Seeing their confusion, Wen Ping explained, "These are the two eggs I got from that cave last time."

"So it’s them."

Zhao Qing nodded in realization.

Looking at the Palace Guards, she thought to herself: No wonder their bloodline feels so noble.

"By the way, has Zhao Keqing returned?"

"No..."

Zhantian Qingxuan shook her head.

Wen Ping continued, "Later, when the Wind Valley and Thousand Layers open... who wants to enter?"

"Me!"

"Me!"

Everyone immediately raised their hands.

"Sect Leader, I want to enter the Thousand Layers." Zhantian Qingxuan was the first to speak, already handing over Gold Tickets.

Lan Peng and Wanyan watched this scene, stunned.

Wanyan had heard Yang Lele talk about it, but seeing it firsthand still felt different.

There truly is a sect in this world where you can learn things just by paying Gold Coins or White Crystals.

At this moment, Yu Mo spoke up, "Elder Zhantian, congratulations in advance."

Following that, the others also offered their congratulations.

"Thank you."

Zhantian Qingxuan beamed with delight.

Because she was only ten steps away from the peak of the Thousand Layers.

Having a genuine Innate Anomaly Vein is forever stronger than possessing a Vortex Map.
