Chapter 4: Helpless Choice Daoyan Sect, Sect Hall, "Elder Fang Cheng, I am here to accept the sect mission assigned by Ning Yan this month." Lu Xuan walked through the bustling crowd and came to the old man who was in charge of task allocation. "It's Xiao Lu. Are you going to do Ningyan's mission alone?" Fang Cheng, who had a wrinkled face and bright eyes, recognized Lu Xuan. He smacked his lips in embarrassment, took out a jade slip from his arms and handed it over. "Alas, there is no other way. You know my situation. If I don't do this, she won't be able to keep her salary, and then it will be even more troublesome." Lu Xuan smiled bitterly, then unfolded the jade slip and checked its contents. "Kill the big monster that appeared near Blackwater Town?!" However, after confirming the mission this time, Lu Xuan's pupils suddenly shrank and he shouted out loud. Killing a big monster of the same level is very challenging even for a true disciple of the Nascent Soul Realm. If you are not careful, you may even be seriously injured.
What's more, he is just a mere Jindan stage cultivator. “Elder Fang Cheng, is this mission wrong? The monster has a strong body and innate magical powers. It can easily defeat three or four cultivators of the same level. This should be a big task for several disciples to jointly conquer, right?" Lu Xuan was a little overwhelmed. How could he possibly complete such a task by himself? For a Jindan cultivator to fight against a big monster alone was simply courting death. ".You are right. This is a special mission." The old man shook his head slightly, looking at him with a hint of pity. Arranged by their own master, this pair of mandarin ducks have a really miserable life. Although he feels a little sorry for them, he owes them a favor and has no choice but to do as he is told. "Huh~, okay." Although Lu Xuan had some doubts, he had no way of confirming who was targeting him. After sighing, he turned around and left with the jade slip, looking a little unwilling. After all, the result cannot be changed. The first thing to consider now is how to find helpers who can go with him to kill the big monster. Otherwise, if Lu Xuan went there alone, he would be seeking his own death. “My colleagues in the Jindan stage would never take this risk, and I don’t know any true disciples in the Yuanying stage. Even if I know him, the rewards I get from the missions are not enough to pay for hiring someone." As he spoke, Lu Xuan suddenly stopped, and Ling Xiao's heroic face automatically appeared in his mind. The opponent is the chief disciple who is capable of suppressing all the true disciples. His Heaven-Slashing Sword Technique is extremely powerful. During competitions, he often cuts off the opponent's magic weapons. There is basically no rival for him in the same realm. In Daoyan Sect, only Xia Ningyan before her cultivation was wasted could compete with her. With one man and one sword, killing the big monster is definitely not a problem, not to mention that I have my assistance, so there is definitely no problem with the fighting power. And the other party should also be willing to help him, but at a price. Recalling the scene of being trapped in the wooden house before, Lu Xuan couldn't help but frowning. He thought of the heroine he had seen in a certain animation in his previous life, who had been subjected to various evil deeds. At this moment, my situation is somewhat similar to theirs.
".It seems that there is really no other way. I can only bite the bullet and do it." After Lu Xuan pondered for a while, he raised his hand and rubbed his temple. At this time, the system prompt sounded again. [Ding! Multiple-choice tasks released, please select the person you want to help] [Seek help from the heroic elder sister who has been coveting you for a long time. I beg her to go out with you to kill the big monster.] [Daoist Companion Darkening Value +1000, Randomly comprehend the target's swordsmanship] [Ask for help from a gentle and lovely junior sister who has a crush on you. Ask her for enough elixirs and talismans to kill the monster alone.] [Daoist companion's blackening value +600, randomly comprehend the target's recipe] [Ask your caring and charming master for help, and ask him to use the power of the peak master to directly replace the assigned task] [Companion's Darkening Value +2000, Randomly comprehend the target's magical power] "." Looking at the several options given by the system, Lu Xuan fell silent. It seemed that he only had these few options at the moment, and he couldn't think of any other solution. “But the option of going to see Master seems to have the least risk and the best reward. But I always feel like something is wrong. Why is the added darkening value so high? " Lu Xuan keenly realized the problem and did not blindly choose the seemingly easiest approach. The rewards for these three options are different, and the blackening points obtained also vary. According to the tasks released by the system in the previous few times, it is obvious that the greater the degree of the Minotaur, the more blackened value is obtained and the better the reward. But conversely, the risk of losing one's virginity also rises sharply. Because his junior sister Liu Mengyao is at a lower level than him, even if she has any improper thoughts about him, Lu Xuan can protect herself and it is difficult for her to do anything wrong. Therefore, the blackening value obtained is the least, and the risk of completing the task is also the greatest. However, Senior Sister Ling Xiao was a whole realm higher than him. If she wanted to use force, he would have no room to resist. Therefore, the blackening value obtained is almost doubled, and the difficulty of the task is greatly reduced. But what's going on with my master? Could it be that she is also interested in me? ". Could it be that Master originally took a fancy to my aptitude as a furnace cauldron and brought me back to the sect?" Recalling the past, Lu Xuan began to search for all the memories related to Fan Qianyue in his mind. When he broke through each realm, he would personally protect him and use his mana to help him loosen the bottleneck. When he was bullied by his fellow disciples, he ignored the face of the peak master and bullied the weak to seek justice. Be sensitive to his low mood and patiently guide him to prevent him from having inner demons. After reviewing the whole thing, Lu Xuan realized how much special care Fan Qianyue had given him, including his fellow disciples, even the most talented Xia Ningyan. It’s not necessarily that the master cares about her half as much as he does. "Huh~, if that's the case, then there's only one choice left." After careful analysis, Lu Xuan sighed silently. It seemed that he had no choice but to go find her.
At this time, Daoyan Sect, the martial arts arena, Swish! Several snow-white sword lights flashed, and the mechanical iron man made entirely of black iron was cleanly chopped into neat pieces and fell to the ground. The cross-sections of those square fragments were as smooth and flat as mirrors, which was enough to show the strength of the swordsman. "As expected, when I feel more relaxed, my sword-drawing speed naturally increases." After the strike, Ling Xiao, with his white hair flying in the wind, sheathed his sword. The sharpness in his eyes disappeared completely, and his agitated aura gradually calmed down. As she finished her sword test, there was a round of applause and several men and women in Taoist robes quickly surrounded her. "It's only been a few days, and your swordsmanship has improved. You are truly a swordsmanship genius!" "Now that Xia Ningyan is defeated, you have no rival. This year's position as the top leader is undisputed!" "With Senior Sister here, our Jianfeng will definitely continue to take first place in the upcoming competitions among the other peaks!" Listening to the flattery from the crowd, although Ling Xiao appeared calm on the surface, the corners of his mouth lifted up slightly without leaving any trace. And after seeing Lu Xuan who was coming alone not far away, this arc finally turned into a bright smile. "Oh, you actually came to me on your own initiative. You brought this upon yourself." Pursing his lips, Ling Xiao murmured, a hint of heat emerging in his eyes. (End of this chapter)
