Wen Ping tried his best not to be emotional. Even if it was an act, he put on a facade of strength.
At this mont, even a single tear would add more concerns and sorrow to his father’s heart.
But no matter how well Wen Ping disguised it, Wen Yan couldn’t control his emotions, "Child, it’s us who have wronged you."
A man over forty, who had always bled instead of cried, couldn’t help but have reddened eyes, tears swirling in them.
He didn’t know how much Wen Ping had suffered to find him.
rely the journey from East Lake to Xuanse Lake revealed its hardships.
"It’s nothing, father. I’ve actually been living quite well, so you don’t need to worry about . After you and mother suddenly disappeared, a senior took as his disciple, and he’s been guiding to find you everywhere." Wen Ping didn’t explain his current situation clearly, as it was too incredible and complex. Now wasn’t the ti for explanations.
"That’s good."
Wen Yan couldn’t help but lift his head to prevent his tears from falling.
He thought to himself: With strong individuals sent by Xue’Er always taking care of Wen Ping, I am relieved.
"Child, you’ve seen . It’s ti to go ho. Your mother and I are in a complicated situation now, and I must leave Heaven and Earth Lake for a while. In the future, you must follow that senior and cultivate diligently. When you break through the Profound Realm and enter the Divine Profound Realm, you can beco an overlord and live without worry. Don’t think about finding us anymore, the world is complex, and people like us cannot make the decisions."
This place isn’t good; the Long Family’s people are nearby. He’s not sure if there are spies of Long Xue’s brother.
He saw Wen Ping’s resilience.
He doesn’t want Wen Ping to search for him like this anymore.
Today was the first ti eting after these days, and he hopes it’ll be the last for a long while.
Wen Ping was stunned, "We’ve just t!"
Wen Ping wanted to say that he had waited a very long ti for this eting!
However, Wen Ping chose silence.
Looking at his father who had beco thinner and worn down compared to before, Wen Ping quickly sensed his realm.
Middle Profound Realm.
The realm was still the sa as before.
No change.
It hadn’t lowered because of hardship.
Nor regressed because of difficulties.
But what Wen Ping saw was a sense of powerlessness. How many years would it take for father to gain the Long Family’s recognition?
Even in the Mountain Suppression Realm, the most talented person recorded in Heaven and Earth Lake took nearly 30 years.
Not to ntion the sons and daughters of the Long Family are in the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression, or even approaching Half-Step Earth Unrestricted level. Father might take centuries to catch up with them.
At this mont, Wen Yan had already seated Wen Ping inside the box.
He then walked towards the door.
At the door, Wen Yan said, "Follow your master from here and return to East Lake to cultivate diligently. Rember, work hard in your cultivation; don’t be reckless like before, and when the ti cos, we will have the chance to reunite."
"Where are you going now?"
"Stay away from you... because that’s the best way to protect you. Child, you must understand my painstaking effort."
After speaking, Wen Yan had already grabbed the door handle with one hand.
Seeing Wen Yan’s departing heart was irreversible, Wen Ping quickly opened the Sect interface in the system and directly bought a Sound Transmission Stone.
In the future, if father really doesn’t dare to et him, at least they can have conversations.
With the Sound Transmission Stone, he can still chat with his mother when he arrives at the Long Family.
In this way, even if another year or two passes without eting, he can endure the pain of not seeing his father.
"Father, by the way, my master asked to give this to you. Carry this with you, as long as you’re within a million miles, you can use it to contact . Put this inside the Storage Ring, and no one will notice it."
Wen Ping hurriedly handed over the Sound Transmission Stone.
Wen Yan glanced at it twice and then accepted it.
Wen Ping quickly said, "When you want to speak to , just say my na into the Sound Transmission Stone."
"Good... thank your master for ."
Wen Yan put the Sound Transmission Stone into the Storage Ring, then opened the door. He paused at the doorway but continued to walk forward resolutely in the next second. Because the door wasn’t closed well, Wen Ping could clearly hear the sound of his father descending the stairs.
The steps were slow; Wen Ping believed his father was feeling very conflicted; otherwise, he wouldn’t walk so slowly.
After Wen Yan left, the maid glanced at Wen Ping before closing the door carefully, not daring to disturb him further.
For a long ti, Wen Ping’s gaze suddenly beca firm, then a thought arose, "I must find a way to see my father again, even if I can’t bring him back to the Immortal Sect, I must help him."
If I can’t compete with mother for father, I have to do sothing.
At this mont, a voice ca from outside the door, "Was that guest just now in that box?"
The visitor was Li Bao, the manager of Vast Auction House!
After sending the news of Fierce Stone below, he hurried up to personally inform Wen Ping of the auction date.
The maid quickly replied, "Currently inside."
The maid pointed to the guest box beside her.
Li Bao directly waved his hand, signaling the maid to leave. Then he lightly knocked on the door.
Dong—
Dong—
"Co in," Wen Ping replied softly.
Li Bao finally pushed the door open and entered, imdiately greeting Wen Ping with a warm smile, as if very familiar.
"Sir, is there any issue with our service here?"
Since Wen Ping was alone in the box, Li Bao chose to inquire first while observing Wen Ping’s unpleasant expression.
At this mont, Wen Ping didn’t want to say much, directly asking: "No problem... has the date for my Fierce Stone auction been decided?"
"Decided!"
Then, Li Bao took out a warm Jade Box, opened it, and slowly presented it in front of Wen Ping. Inside the box lay a circular White Crystal-shaped silver badge, looking extrely exquisite.
"You’ve received... The Fierce Stone auction will be held at night after the opening of the centennial event. You can wear it and directly co to the third floor to watch the auction. Because you are our Silver Level guest, we will waive the fees for the first ti, and all White Crystal earned from the auction will be handed to you in full."
After finishing, Li Bao emphasized once again since it was Wen Ping’s first ti at the Vast Auction House.
"Usually, we at Vast Auction House charge a ten percent fee. The more valuable the item, the higher the fee charged. For a guest like you, we typically charge a twenty percent fee."
Li Bao said this to gain goodwill.
After all, Fierce Stone isn’t cheap.
Waiving a twenty percent fee ans at least 2000 pieces of White Crystal!
Who dares to claim 2000 White Crystal is a small amount?
Wen Ping was pleased with the gesture, casually thanked, and then asked, "By the way, how much do you estimate my Fierce Stone will sell for?"
He’s decided.
All the White Crystal gained from selling the Fierce Stone will be given to his father!
Li Bao thought for a mont and then answered, "Hmm... This centennial event is attended by Four-star Giant Influence; however, it’s rare for any force to acquire such a large piece of Fierce Stone at once. So the price won’t be too high, but it won’t be less than ten thousand pieces of White Crystal."
After receiving the answer, Wen Ping quickly asked the system, "System, can you calculate for , how far can ten thousand pieces of White Crystal take my father in cultivation?"
