Wen Ping immediately made a gesture of invitation, "Naturally, thatâs the road out of the city. Since you all are unwilling to go up and sit, I, Wen Ping, will send you off here... Take care. If we have the chance to meet again in the future, I, Wen Ping, will treat you to a drink."
In this Heaven and Earth Lake, there arenât many who can have him escort them to the city gate.
The people of Scattered In Pavilion have taken his first time!
Upon seeing Wen Ping actually intending to see them out of the city, Pan Su and the othersâ expressions suddenly tensed, except for Yun Jing who remained calm, restraining the others, and then calmly asked a question.
"Sect Leader Wen, are you not entering our Scattered In Pavilion?"
If you donât want to join, why investigate them?
And put in so much effort to investigate in such detail?
Based on the intelligence that Wen Ping knew, she dared to assert that the Immortal Sect must have paid a huge price. As for how much, itâs definitely the most expensive intelligence in the history of Heaven and Earth Lake.
After all, investigating the elders of Scattered In Pavilion is as difficult as killing a Mountain Suppression Realm expert!
To investigate them so meticulously is even more of an impossible task.
While wondering, Wen Ping responded, "Sorry, I donât have that plan because I donât particularly like listening to others. Iâm used to doing my own thing."
"This matter can be negotiated again; our Scattered In Pavilion will never have Sect Leader Wen do anything against the interests of the Immortal Sect," Yun Jing tried to communicate once more.
Wen Ping still refused outright, "Really donât want to... However, my Immortal Sect is willing to be friends with you all."
Itâs still that saying, the enemy of an enemy can be a friend.
As for joining some Scattered In Pavilion?
Thatâs absolutely impossible.
The system suggested he should take Scattered In Pavilion as a vassal, yet not only did he fail to achieve this, he almost became a part of Scattered In Pavilion himself.
"Friends!"
Suddenly, Ge Jiaoâs cold voice emerged.
When Wen Pingâs eyes turned to him, he saw Ge Jiao looking at him with a chilly expression and then said, "Sect Leader Wen, isnât that overthinking it? If it were not for the help of my Scattered In Pavilion, could the Immortal Sect have survived until the day you wanted to be friends with us? I know how you destroyed the Dragon God Sect, mere opportunism. And do you know what consequences your destruction of the Dragon God Sect will cause?"
"Ge Jiao!"
Yun Jing sought to curtail Ge Jiao from continuing.
However, Ge Jiao had no intention of listening.
He asked again, "Sect Leader Wen, do you know what consequences there will be?"
"Consequences?"
Arenât the consequences that the Hundred Sects Alliance comes to seek peace?
What other consequences?
Out of the blue.
Wen Ping suddenly realized.
Ohâ
Wen Ping came to understand.
Ge Jiaoâs information is still stuck from more than a month ago.
It seems that the journey from Scattered In Pavilion to East Lake is quite long. For more than a month, they must have been in the sky, otherwise why would they know nothing about the events that occurred during this period?
Seeing Wen Ping go silent after uttering two words, as if contemplating, Ge Jiao hurriedly continued, "With the downfall of the Dragon God Sect, the Hundred Sects Alliance will see you as a thorn in their flesh. Under their iron hooves, even a Four-star Giant Influence developed over a thousand years canât survive, let alone Sect Leader Wen... your up-and-coming influence thatâs only been around for a year. If Sect Leader Wen thinks that relying on an Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression makes you secure, Sect Leader Wen evidently doesnât know about the seven Silver Level Chiefs of the Hundred Sects Alliance. Any one of them can slay a Mountain Suppression Upper Realm!"
"Silver Level Chiefs? Iâve met them, and Iâve killed them." Wen Ping answered truthfully.
He didnât want to pretend anymore.
The enemy of an enemy counts as a friend.
Since theyâre considered friends, Wen Ping wouldnât bother with any face-slapping matters.
So heâll just tell the truth...
However, upon hearing Wen Pingâs words, the crowd suddenly imagined a faint laughter, like bats in the night flitting by, then disappearing as if without a trace.
Yun Jing couldnât contain herself anymore, with a unique smile at the corner of her mouth, she then said to Wen Ping, "Sect Leader Wen, you really know how to joke. A Silver Level Chief is mysterious, a mere sight is elusive, not to mention many havenât even heard of their names."
"If Sect Leader Wen wants to know, I, Pan Su, can inform you. If they really come, Sect Leader Wen would know who they are," Pan Su chimed in.
They truly didnât expect that Wen Ping would use such a reason to shrug them off.
Not wanting to join Scattered In Pavilion means just that.
They werenât forcing him!
The Alliance Leader sent the three of them, enough to demonstrate Scattered In Pavilionâs sincerity.
But unexpectedly, Wen Ping found such a shoddy reason to refuse joining Scattered In Pavilion.
Other Silver Level Chiefs, even if they met them, they wouldnât dare entangle much, not to mention the Immortal Sect which needed the "assistance" of the Hundred Sects Alliance to destroy a Dragon God Sect.
Listening to the tone of these few people, Wen Ping couldnât help but mutter, "Very interesting."
He, Wen Ping, considered these people as friends and personally escorted them out of the city!
That day, before Situ Xiuneng had a falling out with him, he didnât even step down the mountain to greet him.
Comparing the two, he had already given these people of Scattered In Pavilion enough face.
Unexpectedly, these people turned around to say sarcastic words to mock him.
Then excuse me.
Wen Pingâs expression turned icy, having lost the amicable attitude from earlier, "No need to trouble your lips, Iâve seen. Someone named Situ Xiuneng, came here a month before you. His men, along with himself, are now buried outside the city."
"Hehe."
Ge Jiao chuckled just as Wen Ping finished speaking.
In Ge Jiaoâs view, the Wen Ping before him was really lying without even drafting it, even claiming to have killed Situ Xiuneng?
In Situ Xiunengâs battle achievements, he had slain experts on the verge of reaching Half-Step Earth Unrestricted.
In the strength rankings of Heaven and Earth Lake, within the Mountain Suppression Realm category, he was among the top experts. Even Scattered In Pavilionâs Alliance Leader didnât dare claim he could go all out against Situ Xiuneng when he was at the Mountain Suppression Upper Realm.
Now Wen Ping truly dared to say.
Claiming to have killed Situ Xiuneng!
Yun Jing also followed up, "If Sect Leader Wen just wants an excuse to let us go, thereâs no need. Our Scattered In Pavilionâs Alliance Leader broke through to Half-Step Earth Unrestricted a few days ago, this news hasnât spread yet, but since Sect Leader Wen doesnât trust Scattered In Pavilion, I, Yun Jing, might as well give Sect Leader Wen a reassurance. As long as the three major Silver Level Chiefs of the Hundred Sects Alliance do not show up together, no one can kill our Scattered In Pavilion Alliance Leader!"
To Yun Jing, it seemed reasonable that Wen Ping investigated herself and Pan Su.
He must have wanted to join Scattered In Pavilion.
Just possibly still having some concerns.
However, Wen Ping merely responded lightly as if he hadnât heard about the Scattered In Pavilionâs Alliance Leader reaching Half-Step Earth Unrestricted, "If you donât believe it, you can check it out when you leave; their names are on the tombstone. Their clothes, weapons, and by no surprise, should still be planted in front of the tombstone."
With that said, Wen Ping pointed outside the city.
A few hundred meters away, several protruding graves sat on a vacant lot.
Very rudimentary!
The tombstones were simply bluestone.
There were no barriers whatsoever around them.
At a glance, anyone would assume it might be the grave of some ordinary person.
