System's Super Sect-Chapter 626 - 623. Knowledge is power!
"What should we do now?"
Ge Jiao hurriedly looked at Yun Jing.
Confused as they may be, the people at the Scattered People Post were not concerned about these matters at the moment. Since Wen Ping was willing to speak that way, they accepted it once.
After all, it’s not a big deal.
All they cared about was pulling the Immortal Sect as an ally.
The strength of the Immortal Sect was witnessed firsthand; its potential was limitless. According to Ge Jiao’s intelligence, the one who killed the Dragon God Sect Leader was a woman, with the power of the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression.
Now Situ Xiuneng had also joined the Immortal Sect and unleashed power close to Half-Step Earth Unrestricted.
Adding up those two!
Among the Four-star Influence, none dared to clash head-on with the Immortal Sect.
The most critical part, how long has it been since the rise of the Immortal Sect?
The future would be even more terrifying.
The idea of pulling the Immortal Sect as an ally instantly grew from a sapling into a towering tree in the minds of the three.
Yun Jing said solemnly, "First, return to Cangwu City and prepare a grand gift. In a few days, we will personally go up the mountain to visit Sect Leader Wen."
Ge Jiao and Pan Su nodded.
At the same time, they began to ponder how grand this gift should be!
Within their power range, what is the limit they can offer?
After taking a few significant glances at Wen Ping, the group returned to Cangwu City.
Now, let’s talk about Wen Ping.
In fact, sending Ying Zhao away was all part of an enticing and releasing strategy.
Since goodwill has been harvested.
The next step is to find a way to keep Ying Zhao.
Having the next one is better, though it does not mean Wen Ping will give up on this one.
At this moment, a voice was heard from afar, "The Four Kings, Yu Jiang is still alive!"
Ying Zhao immediately turned around and ran towards the place where Yu Jiang’s demon body was resting.
Since the battle had already ended, the disciples and elders of the Immortal Sect also started to go down the mountain.
Certainly, they went down to see Situ Xiuneng.
They weren’t there to see Yu Jiang.
Since nobody cared whether Yu Jiang was alive.
However, Wen Ping became interested at this time, and his spiritual power immediately rushed towards Yu Jiang.
Yu Jiang was indeed alive.
But basically, he was doomed to die.
His heart was pierced, and the body functions were gradually dying. If it weren’t for the Demon Race’s inherent resilience, he would have long departed.
After jumping off Churao Mountain, Wen Ping collected Black Creek’s corpse into his Storage Ring and headed towards Yu Jiang’s location.
Upon approaching, he saw Ying Zhao standing beside Yu Jiang’s beast head, with a trace of regret on his face, but not pitiful.
Wen Ping understood, as he was, after all, the son of the Demon Emperor.
No matter how young, having been influenced from an early age, naturally, he wouldn’t shed tears for the death of someone around him.
"Fourth King, as long as you’re okay... I’m relieved," Yu Jiang spoke, his voice seemingly ready to break at any moment.
Ying Zhao nodded, replying, "Yu Jiang, I will definitely take good care of your descendants. I owe you a life!"
"To die for the Fourth King is only proper. However... though Black Creek is dead, and this difficulty is overcome, you will face the Three Kings soon. The Three Kings dared to proclaim themselves as emperor, possibly because they have already rallied the Demon Race forces. You better leave Heaven and Earth Lake quickly, otherwise..." Yu Jiang, even at death’s door, continued considering Ying Zhao.
Ying Zhao interrupted Yu Jiang, carrying a trace of anger in his voice, he then said, "I won’t leave, no need to say more. I must let my eldest brother, second brother know the deeds of that shameless person. I would even prefer the second brother, who only thinks of eating, to be emperor rather than seeing that guy ascend to the position of Demon Emperor."
"Fourth King... You can’t return to Demon Emperor Lake..." Yu Jiang immediately guessed Ying Zhao’s intentions and quickly tried to stop him.
Ying Zhao was definitely thinking of returning to Demon Emperor Lake to find the First King or Second King.
But now, who could ensure that the Demon Emperor Lake does not have people belonging to the Three Kings?
As the weakest in strength and influence among the four sons of the Demon Emperor, the Three Kings would certainly plot to eliminate him.
Also, who could assure that the First King or Second King wouldn’t have similar thoughts?
Previously, he wouldn’t dare guess like this.
This was an act of rebellion indeed.
But now, he witnessed the Three Kings attempt to kill the Fourth King, brothers turned against each other.
He couldn’t help but think this way.
Ying Zhao heard Yu Jiang’s dissuasion and directly refused, "Not returning, who would know that person’s deeds? The tribulations I face today, your death, would go unknown."
"Fourth King... I’m nearing my end... Please listen to me. If you return to Demon Emperor Lake, you’ll find it hard to come out alive." Yu Jiang spoke intermittently, then glanced at the demons kneeling behind Ying Zhao and thought of an idea, "If you only want the First King and Second King to know this... leave it to them... they are our confidants. Surely they won’t dishonor the mission!"
"Fourth King, we will not dishonor the mission."
"Fourth King, we will not dishonor the mission."
"Fourth King, we promise not to dishonor the mission."
Six or seven voices echoed their pledges.
Ying Zhao did not turn back but looked at Yu Jiang, hesitation flickering in his heart.
He knew Yu Jiang’s words made a lot of sense.
Yu Jiang’s plan was more effective than what he had considered.
Wen Ping found joy within when he saw Ying Zhao lost in thought.
He originally thought he would need to find a way to make Ying Zhao stay.
Now, it’s resolved.
Yu Jiang did this for him.
Hesitation meant consideration, weighing decisions.
This time, there had to be someone to give a decisive encouragement to help Ying Zhao make a choice.
"Our Sect Leader believes that Yu Jiang’s words make much sense. If everything must be done personally, any accident could lead to total loss."
Wen Ping hurriedly inserted a remark.
As for why Wen Ping thought this way?
It’s simply because he rarely did things by himself.
Fighting was for Elders and the Evil Spirit Knights, while he stayed on the sidelines conserving strength.
He only stepped out when appropriate to show his presence.
Yu Jiang praised him before Ying Zhao could speak, "Sect Leader Wen is truly a wise person."
"Too kind."
Wen Ping modestly replied.
Then, noticing Ying Zhao was still hesitating, Wen Ping added, "Who will save the mountain top if not to worry about no firewood? Ying Zhao, have you heard this phrase?"
"Who will save the mountain top if not to worry about no firewood?" Ying Zhao turned to look at Wen Ping, showing confusion.
Wen Ping didn’t plan to explain.
Because this phrase is meant at face value, easy to understand.
In just the span of a few breaths, Ying Zhao suddenly realized it, gazing at Wen Ping with eyes filled with admiration, "Sect Leader Wen is truly a wise person... Who will save the mountain top if not to worry about no firewood; who will save the mountain top if not to worry about no firewood... This makes so much sense. I’ve understood."
"Glad you understand."
With that, Wen Ping couldn’t help but laugh inwardly.
Indeed, knowledge is power.
Lü Xiucai wasn’t wrong.
At this moment, Ying Zhao, having made up his mind, turned around to face the demons kneeling before him, then coldly said, "Each of you will have a share. Take it and seek the First King and Second King. Remember it must be handed over personally."
After speaking, Ying Zhao spat seven mouthfuls of blood.
Each mouthful of blood fell on Ying Zhao’s palm, immediately forming into crystals.
In the crystal, an authoritative and dense bloodline power surged forth - this was the crystallization of the Demon Emperor’s bloodline.
With this item, it was the best proof.
Since no demon would foolishly hurt themselves simply to play with bloodline crystals.
