"I remember my name is Qi Xingyu!"
Weisheng Xingyu said somewhat woodenly.
"Are you sure?" Wenping asked back.
"I think so...because scenes from the past often appear before my eyes, and I see myself in those images."
Weisheng Xingyuâs expression suddenly turned grim.
Wenping smiled, not rushing to speak with Weisheng Xingyu but instead directly asking the system about Qi Xingyuâs identity. The systemâs answer was straightforward: Qi is the surname of the royal family of You Country.
Apart from the royal family of You Country, no one else can carry the surname Qi!
As for someone named Qi Xingyu, there is only one recorded in the royal familyâs literature of You Country. He was the Second Prince during a certain period in You Country and is hailed as a hero remembered for a millennium.
Wenping didnât closely examine the specific examples; he just looked at the final result.
The result was that Qi Xingyu sacrificed himself in the war that decided You Countryâs fate, thus preserving You Country.
This was 500 years ago!
"Interesting." Wenping couldnât help but feel curious and continued reading about Qi Xingyuâs life events and his portrait provided by the system.
Comparing Weisheng Xingyu to Qi Xingyu, Qi Xingyu was a person with great dignity, exuding a righteous aura between his brows, completely different from Weisheng Xingyuâs malicious intent and hostility.
Wenping found it hard to connect the two, but Weisheng Xingyu remembered himself as Qi Xingyu.
There was something oddly mysterious about it.
Wenping had a bold guess.
Qi Xingyu is Weisheng Xingyu, and Weisheng Xingyu is also Qi Xingyu.
He is the savior hero of You Country, yet also the greatest conspirator wanting to destroy You Country.
"Ridiculous, even novels wouldnât dare write something like this." Wenping thought silently.
After closing the systemâs data, Wenping turned to look at Weisheng Xingyu, who had been waiting for a long time, and said: "First, let me tell you, you have another name, and itâs not Qi Xingyu."
Weisheng Xingyu became even more puzzled, "I have another name?"
"Your name is Weisheng Xingyu."
"Weisheng...Xingyu..."
Weisheng Xingyu slowly recited his name, seeming very unfamiliar with it.
"The Yun Ni youâve been mentioning is actually your daughter, but sheâs been dead for three hundred years now."
"Yun Ni..."
Weisheng Xingyuâs eyes became even more confused.
Knowing instead of not knowing, it seemed more bewildering.
Wenping continued: "Lastly, I can tell you, you are the founder of Zhetian Building. And the Zhetian Building you created was just fighting against my sectâs people. Though, in my eyes, you are not the enemy, I wonât kill you, but many wish to kill you. With your current power, itâs unlikely youâll survive long."
"Zhetian Building..." Weisheng Xingyu murmured those words, still looking bewildered.
Wenping did not continue discussing Qi Xingyu but chose to leave while Weisheng Xingyu remained lost in thought.
Wenping was curious about the connection between Qi Xingyu and Weisheng Xingyu, but he didnât intend to investigate deeply.
For him, the immediate priority was to seize the opportunity to enter Heaven-Gazing Gorge and complete his system task as the first and foremost matter.
Returning to Tingyu Pavilion, Wenping started using the system to review a lot of information about Zhetian Building while deciding on the initial landing spot for exploring Zhetian Building. In any case, Heaven-Gazing Gorge should not be entered recklessly.
Finding a place to establish a foundation is crucial; otherwise, the possibility of failure is high. Because each piece of land in Heaven-Gazing Gorge has an owner, and they all belong to You Country. If forcibly occupied, it would face a backlash from You Country, which is intolerable for Immortal Sect at present.
If one buys a piece of land, then one needs to present offerings to You Country, which Wenping wouldnât want to do.
The reason is simple, Immortal Sect cannot bow to others.
Facing such dual challenges, if the task fails, the development of the sect will retrogress significantly.
Sect membersâ enlightenment will decrease.
Qi fortune will decrease.
Cultivation will face numerous bottlenecks, among other issues.
This would be a scenario that the rapidly developing Immortal Sect cannot afford!
"Firstly, Immortal Sect entering Heaven-Gazing Gorge should not be too high-profile, so it cannot be in an area densely populated by major forces. Secondly, it shouldnât be in an uninhabited place either, as the purpose is to develop in Heaven-Gazing Gorge, not just to establish a foothold." Wenping began searching for such places on the map.
Just like this, a day passed.
At mealtime, Wenping decided to head to Heaven-Gazing Gorge three days ahead of schedule to conduct a field inspection.
The terrain of Heaven-Gazing Gorge differs from Heaven and Earth Lake. Heaven and Earth Lake actually has limited land, with the majority being lakes. In contrast, nine-tenths of Heaven-Gazing Gorge is land, about half of which consists of high mountains.
Currently, he has chosen three locations most suitable for Immortal Sectâs initial foothold.
At least the data provided by the system indicates suitability.
Specifically, Wenping plans to spend a day inspecting each location to ultimately choose the best among the three.
In the evening after dinner, Chen Xie came to Tingyu Pavilion.
"Sect Leader!"
"Come in."
Once Chen Xie entered Tingyu Pavilion, Wenping gestured for him to sit, then directly asked, "Chen Xie, have you ever felt that the stage of Heaven and Earth Lake is too small?"
"Not too big, but also not small." Chen Xie responded.
He faintly guessed what the Sect Leader wanted to do.
But he dared not be sure.
Because it was too unbelievable.
Wenping continued: "You are a smart person and a very capable person. Thereâs a Mirror-Breaking Pill on the table; as long as you can cultivate to the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression, you can use it to attempt a breakthrough to Earth Unrestricted. The probability of breakthrough is only ten percent, but I will keep supplying Mirror-Breaking Pills to you until you truly break the realm."
"Thank you, Sect Leader!" Chen Xie promptly expressed gratitude, glanced at the box on the table, then retracted his longing gaze, "Sect Leaderâs great kindness, I will definitely repay with all my might!"
Wenping said: "Giving you the Mirror-Breaking Pill is actually to prevent you from encountering accidents. After all, Heaven-Gazing Gorge is different from Heaven and Earth Lake. In Heaven and Earth Lake, you can use the Hundred Sects Alliance to establish your own intelligence network, even an intelligence organization. But in Heaven-Gazing Gorge, you can only rely on yourself now."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xie paused for a moment, then a surge of extreme fervor arose in his eyes, quickly responding: "Sect Leader, I am willing to try with all my life; success or martyrdom!"
"No need for you to use your life; you must stay alive whether itâs for Immortal Sect or for your wife and children. The day after tomorrow, I will go to Heaven-Gazing Gorge, you will come with me, and for the intelligence network in Heaven and Earth Lake, find someone you trust to hand it over in the next two days."
"Sect Leader, in such haste?"
Isnât it time to face a major enemy?
Wenping smiled: "It is indeed a bit rushed; however, itâs nothing major. You can just regard it as going to a new place to build a new intelligence network. Do not hold too much burden, there is the sect for everything."
"Subordinate understands." Chen Xie nodded.
"Alright, you may leave. Once in Heaven-Gazing Gorge, just tell me whatever you need."
"Then Iâll go prepare now." Chen Xie picked up the Mirror-Breaking Pill from the table and exited Tingyu Pavilion.
...
Mountain and Sea City.
Di Ting leaned against the chair, looking coldly at the Silver Level Chiefs of the Hundred Sects Alliance below.
"You canât even handle the small matter of the Scattered Man Inn?"
The Silver Level Chiefs below glanced at each other with difficulty.
"The Scattered Man Inn side has a Half-Step Earth Unrestricted expert, and their advancing momentum is hard to counteract."
"Sir, we probably need you to intervene."
Di Ting listened and couldnât help wanting to burst out with curses, but ultimately restrained himself, then retorted, "Ignore the Scattered Man Inn and directly tell their alliance leader, if he dares to step onto the Hundred Sects Allianceâs territory again, I wouldnât mind paying him a visit."
The Silver Level Chiefs of the Hundred Sects Alliance immediately rejoiced.
Di Ting continued, "Anyway, just wait quietly for the superiors to arrive. If the Demon Race attacks, you retreat. Let Immortal Sect be arrogant for a while; it wonât take long before Immortal Sect understands what truly terrifying means! Everything we endure will be reciprocated a hundredfold!"
Five Earth Unrestricted experts have died at the hands of Immortal Sect; the higher-ups will not let it go easily.
Immortal Sect can stop their offensive.
Can they stop Earth Unrestricted Middle Realm experts?
Can they stop Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm experts?
It wonât take long for his revenge and other grievances to be reciprocated a hundredfold!
