The next morning, Xiao Ye got up early. As early as yesterday, he went to Wanbao Pavilion to buy some spiritual talismans. Although it was just for investigation, there might be other dangers. For insurance, he bought a bunch of spiritual talismans for protection.
When he arrived at the gate of the sect, two disciples were already waiting here, a man and a woman.
The male disciple Xiao Ye didn't know him, but the female disciple Xiao Ye immediately had a headache. This person was Mu Yudie who we met yesterday and was scolded for no reason.
I thought that I would never see this woman again after yesterday, but I never thought that she would actually take on the same mission as me. Is this considered a destiny, or is it just enemies?
Mu Yudie saw Xiao Ye with the same expression as yesterday, with slight disgust. Originally, she wanted to take this task and go out for a little experience, but she never thought that Xiao Ye would also take this task. She has stayed in the sixth level for a long time. The contribution points that can be exchanged for this mission are rich, which can be exchanged for a lot of time in the cultivation land. In this way, she will definitely be able to break through, which makes her not want to give up this one. You can experience it and get a lot of contribution points from the mission.
Although she is a direct daughter of a noble family, she is now just an outer disciple of the Luoyun Sect. Before entering the inner gate without building a foundation, you are absolutely not allowed to make requests or ask for help from the family. Otherwise, you will lose your family's heir qualifications. But thinking about it carefully, three people can accept this task at the same time. It is better to have one more person than Xiao Ye together, so I finally accepted it.
"Hmph!" Mu Yudie snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "You are a third-level person who accepts such a dangerous mission. When the time comes, you should follow me honestly so as not to get in the way."
Xiao Ye wanted to say hello properly, but he didn't expect Mu Yudie to talk like this when he came up. I couldn't help but feel resentful in my heart. Did I provoke you? Your good mood so early in the morning was ruined by you.
Xiao Ye didn't tolerate her, and said: "You're on dynamite. You're so angry so early in the morning. Don't worry if I hold you back. Just don't hold me back as a woman like you."
"You! Even if you don't even look at how much you weigh, I, the dignified young lady of the Mu family, will not be as good as an outer disciple like you!" Mu Yudie said with a frown.
"I know how much I weigh. You also know that you are the daughter of the Mu family. To put it bluntly, you are the chick under the roof. You have a prominent family and suffer from princess disease. With such a bad temper, be careful not to get married in the future. That's right, with such a bad temper, anyone who marries you will really be unlucky for eight lifetimes." Xiao Ye said contemptuously.
"You!" Mu Yudie was almost furious. She was a dignified daughter of the Mu family. She was not respectful when she saw him. She had been so wronged and was so angry that she said something like this out of nowhere: " You can't get married. There are many people who want to marry me. Even if you want to queue up, you have to queue up to more than ten miles outside the sect! Even if all the men in the world die and only you are left, I will not marry you either."
But after she finished speaking, she regretted it, thinking back to how she could have spoken like that.
"No need, unless you give me money, I can't even see the queue." Xiao Ye rolled his eyes at her and said, "Even if all the men in the world die and I am the only one left, it's not like all the women are dead. , do you think I will still choose you? Won’t I choose slowly? "
"You... are shameless and shameless!" Mu Yudie's pretty face turned red with anger, and she was about to start a fight with Xiao Ye. Another disciple on the side saw that something was wrong and quickly tried to persuade him: "Those two , we are all performing the mission together, it would be wrong to have internal strife before the mission has even started. If you have any grudges, you can just wait until the mission is over to resolve them."
Both sides rolled their eyes at each other. Xiao Ye then looked at the male disciple, a moment of vigilance flashed in his eyes, and then he returned to calmness and said with a smile: "You still don't know the name of this senior brother? Junior brother, my name is... .”
"Xiao Ye, right? I've heard of you a long time ago. You have short hair. My name is Chen Baili. You can just call me Senior Brother Chen." The male disciple smiled.
"It turns out to be Senior Brother Chen. Senior Brother also knows that I was just brought back and I am not familiar with this place. I would like to ask Senior Brother to give me more support for this mission and also be more considerate." Xiao Ye said with a smile, feeling this Like Mu Yudie, he is both at the sixth level of the Qi Entraining Realm.
Chen Baili smiled and said: "Don't worry, but this time we are only responsible for the investigation. Please don't act out of emotion."
"Don't worry, senior brother, I know the seriousness of the matter." Xiao Ye said lightly.
"Okay, in that case, it's already getting late, and the journey is long. Let's set off now." Chen Baili smiled, and then he took out a small boat from the Qiankun bag. He held the boat in the palm of his hand and pointed it at it. After blowing a breath, the small boat floated away in the wind, amplifying its speed visible to the naked eye in the air, reaching a length of five feet.
"Brother, what is this?" Xiao Ye asked.
"Country bumpkin." Mu Yudie muttered to the side, and then jumped on the boat.
Xiao Ye ignored her and listened to Chen Baili's explanation: "This is called a spirit boat. It is a means of transportation for monks. The spirit boat only needs to be propelled by spiritual energy to fly. The speed of flight is related to the level of the spirit boat. , the higher the level, the faster the speed, but it also consumes a lot of spirit stones. Usually, if the tasks within the sect are far away, the sect will lend the spirit boat to the disciples to save time. The spirit boat is not something unusual. Things are sold in Wanbao Pavilion or in the Imperial City, but the price is not that cheap."
Xiao Ye nodded and then jumped on the spirit boat.
Jintai Town is not far away from the sect. Even with the spirit boat driving, it will take a lot of time.
On the spirit boat, Xiao Ye looked at the great rivers and mountains under the sky. The magnificent scenery was something he had never seen before.
But then, Xiao Ye, like Mu Yudie, sat on the spirit boat and meditated.
However, Mu Yudie didn't want to talk to the two of them and simply practiced breathing. Xiao Ye, on the other hand, kept focusing on Chen Baili.
Although Chen Baili seemed harmonious, only Xiao Ye could clearly feel that Chen Baili was hostile to him. To be precise, it was a killing intent that made Xiao Ye feel a sense of danger.
Before Xiao Ye came here, he had lived alone all year round and was extremely sensitive to dangerous things.
If he guessed correctly, Chen Baili should have been sent by Zhou Yue to kill him. Disciples within the sect are not allowed to kill each other, but it is different outside the sect. Once you leave the sect and kill someone, you can find any excuse to fool them. Although you know it, the sect will not care if there is no direct evidence.
Unless they are disciples that are highly valued by the sect, or disciples who have made outstanding contributions to the sect. Otherwise, the sect will just regard this as part of the laws of this time and let it survive on its own.
Xiao Ye guessed wrong. Perhaps he had been targeted by Zhou Yue since he entered the mission pavilion. If Mu Yudie hadn't stepped in to take over this task, then his two partners would have been surrounded by two killers.
After all the calculations, he would also like to thank Mu Yudie for accepting the mission and helping him reduce a threat. Moreover, with her status as the eldest lady of a distinguished family, Chen Baili would never dare to be disrespectful to her, or have other ideas, unless he didn't want to live anymore. Although being by Mu Yudie's side made him a little upset, it at least made Chen Baili restrained and not do anything too outrageous in person.
Time flew by, and soon it was evening. During the journey, Xiao Ye also looked at the scenery below. Every time he passed a river bed or a mountain, Xiao Ye felt a shock in his heart. He couldn't help but wonder, when was this Earth and why were there such towering mountains? Or maybe...this isn't Earth at all.
His heart was full of suspicion, and many questions emerged in his mind. At this time, Chen Baili suddenly said: "Junior Sister Mu, Junior Brother Xiao, I still want to say something here, our mission this time is just to investigate, and everything else is up to us. It doesn’t matter, we just need to report the information and bring it back to the sect.”
Suddenly, Xiao Ye asked: "Senior Brother Chen, where exactly is Jintai Town?"
Chen Baili said: "Actually, Jintai Town was originally called Jintai Village. It was a relatively remote small place in the dynasty. It was just because there was a former disciple of our sect who had made outstanding contributions to the sect. That disciple worked for the sect. And sacrifice, in the end the sect gave Jintai Village some resources so that the people in the village could practice, but the cultivation level was not high. The sect also gave a preferential treatment, and would go there every three years to select a group to see if there were any. If there are no disciples suitable for cultivation, if there are any, they will be brought back to the sect. Finally, over time, Jintai Village began to gradually grow and became the current Jintai Town."
"Although there are monks, their strength is generally not very high. The strongest ones are just handymen like us. Mainly because the spiritual energy there is thin. There are not many ordinary beasts around, let alone spiritual beasts. , so the monks there are very inexperienced in combat, and they are much different from those in the sect. There are many places like this, not just Jintai Town."
Xiao Ye nodded, no wonder it was only turned into an earth-level mission. If it weren't for the lost disciples, I'm afraid it would only be turned into a human-level mission. He suddenly felt that this sect was quite humane.
The journey is far away. Although Xiao Ye is meditating and practicing, basically half of his attention is on Chen Baili. He doesn't know when he will take action and must deal with it carefully.
