Chapter 60: Demon-killing Mission A familiar rough voice sounded in the room. Zhao Yueyue immediately turned her head to look at the door and saw that it was indeed Mei Mei. "Mei Mei, why are you here? Come in and sit down." Mei Mei looked around and hesitated when she heard this. "This is not good. I am different now than before. It is not good for me to enter your room with a man's body, isn't it?" "Oh, forget it, I don't care what you care about, just come in!" After saying that, he pulled the person in and closed the door. "You see, I don't have visitors often, so I don't have anything to entertain you. This Huishan Spiritual Tea was given to me by Master Cheng. You can drink it. And you can try this spiritual fruit. It should be okay." "Huishan Spiritual Tea? Sure, Sister Yue, you are doing well. This stuff is very expensive. One or two ounces can be sold for 5000 low-grade spirit stones. Uncle Cheng treats you very well." "It's quite good. Senior Sister Zhou is also a nice person. Maybe only Zhao Qian'an is not a good person. But overall, Danfeng is a good place to retire." "I was saying that during the sect meeting, the sect leader proposed to restore your status as an inner disciple, but you refused. So you decided to look to Danfeng, your retirement place!"
"That is!" Then Mei Mei took a sip of the spiritual tea. The refreshing taste really went straight to her brain, making her feel relaxed both physically and mentally. She couldn't help but sigh. "It tastes delicious. It makes me want to come to Danfeng Peak. As for Piaomiao Peak, well, let's not talk about it!" "what happened?" "What else can it be? It's just the heroine's business. Don't talk about it. I think it's unlucky. Hey? Who else could it be if not this child? Aren't you pregnant with one? Where did this one come from? It's quite cute!" As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to tease An An. Perhaps it was because Mei Mei's current appearance was too ugly, An An was so scared when someone touched her for the first time. The two of them were frightened and panicked. "Hey, don't cry, baby! I didn't mean it! Don't cry, I won't touch you, okay?" Zhao Yueyue also held An An in her arms and coaxed her, "An An, be good, don't cry, don't cry, Auntie." Zhao Yueyue paused when she said this, and Mei Mei looked up awkwardly. When the two met, Zhao Yueyue couldn't help laughing at Mei Mei's embarrassed face, but then she restrained herself from her accusation. "Uncle didn't mean it. He just likes you so much that he teased you. Be good and don't cry! An An is the best~" They patted and coaxed him at the same time, and soon he was coaxed into submission. However, little An An buried his head in Zhao Yueyue's arms and refused to come out, which made the air feel a little awkward. How much does he dislike Mei Mei? I didn't realize that the little guy is still obsessed with looks! Mei Mei was frowning. Zhao Yueyue felt that it was not nice to laugh at this time, so she hugged An An tightly in this position and answered her questions as if nothing had happened. "Let me introduce you. This little guy is Lin Miao, nicknamed An'an. I picked him up, but it doesn't matter. He is my eldest son now, so you can just call him An'an. An'an, come out and recognize me." As he spoke, he gently pulled An An out of his arms, but maybe because he didn't use enough strength, he actually failed to lift the little guy up. Zhao Yueyue smiled awkwardly, "An An is a bit shy, she will be fine once she gets familiar with them." Mei Mei's eyes were filled with resentment, and she was so devastated that she said nothing. Zhao Yueyue felt more and more sorry, but she couldn't hit the child, so she could only change the subject awkwardly.
"By the way, Meimei, what do you want to talk to me about?" This sentence awakened the resentful Meimei, and she remembered the purpose of her visit. "Yes, there is something. Sister Yue, can you please make something for me? I need it when I'm on a mission." "Task?" "Yeah, didn't you know?" Mei Mei slapped her forehead, looking annoyed, "Yes, I forgot that when you came here, you had been demoted to menial work, so you had never done any sect missions, and you didn't know what was normal. Well, actually it’s nothing, this kind of sect mission is just like those in the novels about cultivating immortals, which are various monster-killing missions, object-hunting missions, exploration missions, etc. issued by the sect. As long as you are an inner or outer disciple of the sect, you can take them up, and you will be rewarded if you complete them. Oh, this does not include the mandatory tasks issued by the sect. Not only are these tasks mandatory, they are also very boring and not very rewarding, so no one is willing to do them. But there is no other way. As a member of the sect, the sect has protected you, and you have to contribute to the sect. For example, in the previous secret realm gathering mission, I didn't leave a single herb after completing the mission. Hey! The things I asked you to help me refine were to complete the sect mission. " After these words, Zhao Yueyue suddenly understood, but then realized something was wrong. "But I remember that there are only a few sect missions a year. If I remember correctly, including the one in Yuntian Secret Realm, this year's disciples have completed all the sect missions. Why are you still here?" Hearing this, Mei Mei's face turned bitter. "Don't mention it. I'm digging my own grave. Have you forgotten the novel I wrote? According to the progress, the troubled times should have begun recently. The Sky Demons are about to descend, and in the two hundred years before their arrival, disasters continue everywhere. This mission is probably what I wrote. The disaster of the monsters infected by the evil spirit of the Sky Demons is still good. At the beginning, it happens once every ten years. The closer it is to the awakening of the Sky Demons, the faster it will erupt. In the end, I'm afraid it will happen several times a year." "So we just happened to catch up?" "Maybe. After all, the Daughter of Destiny and the Son of Destiny are not dead. Are the Demons anxious?" What he said made sense, but Zhao Yueyue always felt something was wrong. But since her good friend had brought it up, how could she not help? So Zhao Yueyue spent a few days helping him refine a magical weapon called the Monster Catching Net. It was said that this was required by the sect. If a living monster was caught, 10 medium-grade spirit stones would be rewarded, which was very cost-effective. Many inner disciples who were on missions prepared various magical instruments to capture monsters alive, intending to make a fortune, but Zhao Yueyue had a bad sixth sense, so she finally gave some advice. "Mei Mei, I don't think this is too much. Be careful. It's better not to get the bonus than to get yourself into trouble. Got it?" "Don't worry, I understand, and I'm going with my good brothers in the peak, so it should be fine." Seeing his confident look, Zhao Yueyue became even more worried. What should she do? As expected, the result is—— "Oh no! The disciple we sent to kill the monster is missing!" "Missing?" Zhao Yueyue was very anxious when she heard Awan running towards her breathlessly to share gossip with her. But seeing that she was panting so hard, he was afraid that she was uncomfortable, so he quickly handed her a cup of spiritual tea, and Awan took it. He had long since evolved from being indifferent at the beginning, as he had no idea how to drink such good spiritual tea. After all, she was used to it, and the things that A Yue gave her were enough to keep her going for a long time. "What happened? Why did she disappear?" Zhao Yueyue asked her quickly after seeing her recover. "I also heard from others that this demon-killing mission is very strange. Originally, the disciples sent were all elite inner sect disciples, so this demon-killing mission was a waste of their talents. However, it has been more than a month since they killed the demons, and the last two groups have not returned to report. This is very strange. There are so many inner sect disciples, but not a single one has returned. Isn't it too strange?" (End of this chapter)
