System's Super Sect-Chapter 441 - 439. The Heart of Erha (1/4)

Wen Ping did not respond. When he arrived in front of the Main Hall, he leaned against the stone tiger and quietly listened.

Long Ke looked at Wen Ping with earnest eyes and continued, "Trust me, you need someone with power like mine to help you right now. Perhaps in the end, you can hide in those buildings where no one from the Hundred Sects Alliance can break in. But hiding is definitely not the solution to the problem... The solution is right in front of you."

After speaking, Long Ke noticed that Wen Ping did not react.

A sudden realization flashed in her mind.

Right, she was in the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression. It should be Wen Ping seeking her help.

Why did it seem like she was the one begging Wen Ping?

"Of course, you can ignore my suggestion. But to be honest, just these few small places in the Xuanse Lake, the most they can bring is someone in the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression. Killing them is as easy as slaughtering chickens. Even if they were lucky enough to gather an old guy, I could kill him too." This time, Long Ke wanted to play the game of strategic retreat.

Because she found that Wen Ping was someone who wouldn’t listen to others’ suggestions, the best way was still to lay out the problem and let Wen Ping think and ponder on his own.

That way, her goal might very well be achieved.

Come to think of it, she didn’t have an Innate Anomaly Vein either. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

If she could get one, wouldn’t that be great?

"Sect Leader Wen, consider it yourself. I’ll be cultivating in the Main Hall, you can come find me anytime." Saying this, Long Ke truly restored the aloof demeanor that someone in the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression should have, and stepped towards the Main Hall.

Typically, at such times, someone would surely call out.

This was the experience she accumulated over decades of traversing the world.

Without exception, unless...

Thud thud.

The sound of Wen Ping leaving echoed.

Long Ke’s thoughts came to an abrupt halt. She turned her head and saw that Wen Ping had already walked down from the Main Hall and was heading towards the other end of the square. The Mountain Dog came running with a chuckle, and Wen Ping, as if nothing had happened, patted the Mountain Dog’s head and said, "Tonight I’ll get you a roast suckling pig, you performed well at Xuanse Lake."

Woof woof!

The Mountain Dog barked twice, exceptionally cheerful.

"This kid."

Long Ke was utterly speechless with her nephew.

He actually didn’t fall for her ruse.

It seems she’ll have to wait until the enemy is at the gates before she can persuade him.

Unable to listen to others’ opinions, this trait he definitely inherited from his aunt.

The aunt never listened to her either, which led to today’s awkward situation. Clearly, Wen Ping had the noble blood of the Long Family flowing through him, yet he could only spend a lifetime in the corner of Heaven and Earth Lake.

...

Another night passed in the blink of an eye.

There was only one hour left until the Mission Hall was completed, and Wen Ping arrived at the dormitory area in the morning as scheduled to feed the two Palace Guards.

The pools surrounding the dormitory area showed no unusual signs, remaining as calm and profound as ever, with their bottom invisible. At this moment, the two little ones were lying by the shore, precisely where everyone liked to stay when practicing Sword Control Skill. At first glance, the scene was harmonious, with the two Palace Guards exuding a certain charm and cuteness.

"Sect Leader!"

"Sect Leader!"

Seeing Wen Ping arrive, everyone hurriedly stood up.

Wen Ping waved his hand and said, "Continue your cultivation, I’m here to feed these two little ones."

Saying this, Wen Ping took out a few Fire Spirit Crystals, shook them, and before he could announce mealtime, the two little ones crawled over to him emitting a faint "mm ah" sound.

Perhaps because of their youth, the sound immediately attracted Yang Lele and the others.

Being children, small pets held a terrifying attraction for them.

"So cute."

"Sect Leader, do they have names?"

Under the inquiry of Zhao Qing and Huai Ye, Wen Ping fell silent after throwing two Fire Spirit Crystals.

Right, he wasn’t raising these two Palace Guards as thugs; he ought to give them names.

But what names should he give these cute and charming little ones?

"Sect Leader, why not call them Big Cutie and Little Cutie?" Huai Ye suggested names for the two Palace Guards with her teenage innocence.

However, this was met with unanimous shaking of heads.

Wen Ping pondered for a moment and said, "You two do look very obedient, how about calling you Big Obedient and Little Obedient?"

Of course, that was also a wish.

Wishing that these two little ones wouldn’t cause trouble in the future.

"Big Obedient, Little Obedient."

"So, who is Big Obedient?"

Yang Lele and the group had already started discussing.

At this moment, Wen Ping turned abruptly and saw the water in the pool suddenly surging high — this was the first time the Flood Dragon stirred up waves without emerging from the water.

Contrary to the usual calm.

The system’s voice arrived as expected.

"Host, the Flood Dragon wants to know if you could remove these two little ones."

"Huh?"

The Flood Dragon actually communicated with him?

But opening with this request, why?

Wen Ping shook his head, "Remove them, then what would I raise? Tell the Flood Dragon to get along well with Big Obedient and Little Obedient, and become friends in the future."

"It says it might not be possible... these two little ones tied its Dragon Beard into a dead knot last night."

"Ah?"

Wen Ping unconsciously walked to the Deep Pool and looked down.

Not to mention, with the Golden Divination Eye granted by Nirvana, not only could he see through a person’s cultivation technique and its flaws, but he could also see far away.

The Golden Eyes opened.

The Flood Dragon curled up below looked very majestic, but those two long whiskers were somewhat amusing.

They were tied into a knot.

And without feet, the Flood Dragon couldn’t untie them.

"Really mischievous!" Wen Ping instinctively glanced back at the two Palace Guards, suddenly feeling that Big Obedient and Little Obedient weren’t very fitting names for them.

"Keep an eye on them."

Wen Ping instructed Yang Lele and the others, then jumped into the Deep Pool.

The further down the water, the colder it became, so cold it pierced through to the bone.

But Wen Ping could only brace himself and dive down, exerting all his efforts to untie the knotted Dragon Beard.

Perhaps it was the first Flood Dragon ever to have its beard tied into a knot.

He was also the first person to untie the knotted beard for a Flood Dragon.

When he returned to the shore, soaked, everyone waited there in confusion.

Upon reaching the shore, Wen Ping immediately activated the Meridian Gate, allowing the swirling Vein Qi to evaporate the water from his body, while his gaze remained fixed on the two small Palace Guards.

"You two won’t get any food today, and if there’s more mischief, there won’t be any tomorrow either."

Wen Ping scolded begrudgingly.

The two little ones called out "mm ah, mm ah" twice. Whether they understood or not was unclear.

As the moisture on his body evaporated, Wen Ping heard the news of the successful construction of the Mission Hall.

"Mission Hall construction successful!"

"Finally, it’s finished."

Wen Ping gazed afar, as the white mist in the distant forest dispersed, revealing an ancient hall with a pointed roof standing there.

"Mission Hall construction successful. Mission assignment restrictions: There are differences in task assignments for the host and sect members, but the primary restriction is the inability to abandon tasks. If a task is not completed within the specified time, or if there is an attempt to forcibly abandon it, one item obtained from the Super Sect will be forfeited. Taking the host as an example: forfeiting the Anomalous Vein is possible."
