System's Super Sect-Chapter 628 - 625, Immortal Sect Adds Another Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression (Part 2)
In front of the demon body that stretched for a hundred zhang, Wen Ping seemed insignificant standing to the side.
But the aura was something that the hundred zhang wide demon body could not match.
Wen Ping locked eyes with Yu Jiang and then said, "I want you to forsake your loyalty."
The words were spoken very slowly.
Each word drilled into Yu Jiang’s ears.
"Sect Leader Wen, you don’t mean you want me to pledge my loyalty to you, do you?" A trace of amusement flashed in Yu Jiang’s eyes.
This amusement revealed hesitation.
Hesitation between belief and disbelief.
Wen Ping nodded, "You could say that. However, it’s a bit too crude to put it like that. I think it should be called joining the Immortal Sect. With your realm and power, I could offer you a position as an elder. In the future, just contribute to the Immortal Sect’s prosperity and development."
Yu Jiang hadn’t had time to react yet.
When Long Ke let out a sound of surprise and doubt.
Because she originally thought they just wanted to resurrect Yu Jiang like they did Situ Xiuneng and make his body fight for Wen Ping.
Wen Ping only wanted a dead body.
But now Wen Ping was recruiting a dying demon?
He was on the brink of death, did Wen Ping want to spend a fortune on celestial materials to heal him?
"Sect Leader, with all due respect, having him join the Immortal Sect indeed strengthens us, and the Immortal Sect needs it now, but if you’re thinking of using Spiritual Cuisine to heal him, please calculate the expenditure. Healing a dying Upper Realm Great Demon is like training a new one."
It’s like saving a dying person.
The cost involved would be a hundred times more, even a thousand times more than usual healing.
As a niece, although I often counter Wen Ping, I must think for Wen Ping when necessary and help him see the other side.
We shouldn’t ignore drawbacks because of benefits.
Seeing Wen Ping not responding, Long Ke spoke again, "I can conquer one for the Immortal Sect someday."
Wen Ping glanced at Long Ke, understanding what she meant.
If the Evil Spirit Knight didn’t have "Divine Healing," he might have listened to Long Ke.
But now that he has "Divine Healing."
He must seize the opportunity.
Upper Realm Wing Race Demon King is hard to come by.
He had only seen two so far, Black Creek and Yu Jiang.
Back then, passing through the corner of the Demon Emperor Lake when headed to the Dragon God Sect, the Wing Race Demon Kings chasing the Flying Ship were at most comparable to the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression.
In response, Wen Ping casually replied, "Elder Zhao, have I ever made a losing decision?"
Long Ke froze for a moment.
Seems like he never did.
Wen Ping never lost, and he never allowed himself to lose.
At that moment, Yu Jiang suddenly spoke, "Elder position... thank you for your kind offer, Sect Leader Wen."
"No need for such courteous words. Just tell me, can you forsake your loyalty? Do that, and I’ll give you rebirth," Wen Ping straightforwardly replied.
Yu Jiang fell silent.
After a long time, he looked at Long Ke.
Then he looked in the direction Ying Zhao left,
Finally, he blinked, essentially agreeing.
He added at last, "As long as it doesn’t mean harming the Four Kings."
After that, Yu Jiang felt a faint expectation.
He thought Wen Ping wasn’t joking.
Maybe there really is a way to save him, who knows.
Honestly, who wants to die?
Isn’t it only in despair that one chooses to face it calmly?
Listening to Yu Jiang’s last words, Wen Ping thought to himself: Why would I harm him? I’m even thinking of bringing him into the Immortal Sect, the system even wants to use him to recruit demon race affiliations.
Of course, he couldn’t say what he thought.
Wen Ping could only reply with two words, "Naturally."
Then Wen Ping turned his body and started walking toward Churao Mountain.
He paused abruptly, as if he thought of something, turned his head, and said to Yu Jiang again, "To be reborn, the price might be painful."
After saying this, he looked at the restless Long Ke and said, "Elder Zhao, send him on his way."
"Ah?"
Long Ke was stunned.
Not recruiting Yu Jiang as an elder of the Immortal Sect?
Wasn’t it all about not making a losing decision?
Why kill Yu Jiang now?
"Why are you looking at me? Go ahead. To be reborn, one must first die. He will need a day or two after he dies; it’s better to send him off now."
After saying that, Wen Ping went up Churao Mountain with Situ Xiuneng.
Everyone’s gaze shifted from Situ Xiuneng to Yu Jiang.
Only to hear Long Ke muttering, chewing on Wen Ping’s words, "To be reborn, one must first die?"
However, no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t understand.
But since Wen Ping had said it, it must be correct.
Taking out Dragon Beard, Long Ke’s three Meridian Gates opened with a sound, responding in unison.
With two consecutive actions, Yu Jiang’s last bit of remaining vitality was completely destroyed.
Yu Jiang’s life ended at that moment.
Seeing the blood flowing at their feet, with no breath left in Yu Jiang, no one dared to breathe heavily.
Especially Long Ke, who wanted to see what rebirth was.
However, after waiting for a quarter of an hour, there was no movement at all.
All they heard was the wind.
And the smell of blood.
Nothing else.
There was no so-called rebirth for Yu Jiang.
"Why do I feel like I’ve been played by this kid again?" Long Ke put away the Dragon Beard with an angry expression on her face.
With that said, she immediately headed toward Churao Mountain to have a word with Wen Ping.
If it weren’t for the need to keep her identity hidden, she would have wanted to punch Wen Ping twice.
Otherwise, this kid would never learn his lesson and always play with her.
...
Shortly after Long Ke and the people of the Immortal Sect left, the Evil Spirit Knight quietly came to Yu Jiang’s side.
A pair of eerie white bony hands were placed on Yu Jiang’s forehead, with blue flames happily jumping, occasionally flickering onto Yu Jiang’s forehead.
Time passed bit by bit like this.
Suddenly, Yu Jiang’s wings twitched as if startled in his dreams.
Immediately after this fleeting moment, Yu Jiang’s eyes snapped open.
These eyes, shining with dazzling brilliance, showed no signs of weakness, despair, or death.
The wounds on his demon body were now healed.
Just as Yu Jiang was about to move, he saw the skeleton burning with blue flames open a paper in front of him, "Become human, follow it to see me at the Immortal Sect."
Yu Jiang looked at his reborn body in surprise and joy.
His delight was evident.
Looking at the Evil Spirit Knight, he was inwardly startled. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Indeed, Sect Leader Wen is an extraordinary person!
He clearly remembered dying, and now he is alive again.
This terrifying ability is nothing short of miraculous!
Moreover, Sect Leader Wen has under his command a Burning Fire Skeleton with a presence equivalent to Elder Zhao’s.
The dog next to the Burning Fire Skeleton also looked stronger than him.
While marvelling in his mind, the Evil Spirit Knight tapped him on his shoulder, shook the paper in its hand, and Yu Jiang finally reacted, quickly transforming into a human form.
He transformed into a middle-aged man with a heavy sword on his back!
The Evil Spirit Knight then destroyed the paper and headed towards Medicine Mountain.
Wen Ping was waiting there!
