Chapter 192 – Advanced System Tasks
The Pavilion Master of the Aqua Sword Pavilion was named Hou Dongbai.
Looking at his age, he was a young man around thirty-ish.
Wearing a blue robe, he had handsome features.
The biggest difference between him and the other sect masters was his cultivation level.
It was clearly the Jindan realm!
This was also the reason why right now, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Hua Mengyue, they would treat him with such respect.
At this moment, when he saw the two outsiders, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, a trace of doubt immediately surfaced on his face.
Hua Mengyue, who was beside him, immediately introduced the identities of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to Hou Dongbai, and told Hou Dongbai about the purpose of their coming here, as well as the attitude of his own master, Gu Yuefeng, towards them.
After Hou Dongbai heard this, his heart could not help but be greatly surprised.
How many years has it been?
The Ancient Master hadn’t even taken out his unique Sword Intent Order again.
Even when facing the currently most talented junior in their sect, Hou Dongbai still hadn’t given out his Sword Intent Order.
Thus, it seemed that that Daoist Zheng who was far away in the Cloud Kingdom, that letter he had given to his own Ancient Master, was truly held in very high regard by the Ancient Master.
Because he had been instructed by Gu Yuefeng many times and had been given the Sword Intent Order by Gu Yuefeng himself.
Although Gu Yuefeng was not his nominal master, in his Hou Dongbai’s heart, he had always regarded Gu Yuefeng as his teacher.
He had always regarded himself as a disciple in front of Gu Yuefeng as well.
It was also because of this relationship.
At this moment, Hou Dongbai, when he faced Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, he naturally put on a few smiles and nodded at them in response.
At the end, he then turned to Hua Mengyue at the side and spoke:
“Since Ancient Master has already begun to comprehend the Sword Dao at the moment, I won’t bother you much for the time being.
When Master Gu comes out of the gate, you remember to inform me, Sister Flower.”
In private, Hou Dongbai had always referred to Gu Yuefeng’s disciples as senior brothers, or elder siblings.
The reason why Hua Mengyue had just addressed him as Pavilion Master instead of Senior Brother was also because she had taken into consideration the existence of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
However, at this moment, she heard Hou Dongbai had addressed her as senior sister, so Hua Mengyue didn’t make any more pretense and directly nodded at Hou Dongbai, saying:
“Yes, Pavilion Master Senior Brother!”
Saying that, Hua Mengyue hesitated slightly, but in the end, she still opened her mouth and asked:
“I don’t know if the Pavilion Master Senior Brother and all the Elders went to investigate that Seven Lotus Demon Sect, and if there are any results now?”
Hearing Hua Mengyue ask about this, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan on the side immediately both perked up.
Hou Dongbai, on the other hand, was slightly surprised, not expecting Hua Mengyue to raise this question with him in front of Jiang Chengxuan and his wife.
However, when he thought of Gu Yuefeng’s attitude towards Jiang Chengxuan’s duo, as well as some of the exchanges that might have existed between them and Hua Mengyue in private, Hou Dongbai didn’t hide it, and when he heard this, he immediately shook his head and said:
“There are no results yet.
Now that I have come here to find Master Gu, it is precisely this matter that I wish to speak with him about.”
Seeing as a Jindan real person Hou Dongbai personally, for that Seven Lotus Demon Sect’s whereabouts stronghold, there is not much to gain.
The faces of Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Hua Mengyue could not help but show a look of gravity.
Then he heard Hou Dongbai continue, “Afterwards, if there are no accidents, we should join forces with the Taoist friends of the Heavenly Yue Sect and head to Kunxu Mountain, inviting Taoist friend Kunxu to come out and perform an act on that Seven Lotus Demon Sect.”
The Daoist Friend Kunxu that Hou Dongbai referred to here was a Jindan loose cultivator within their Liang Country.
This person was good at arithmetic, and was a character that both their Bishui Sword Pavilion and Tian Yue Sect would have to rely on next.
Only this matter is not trivial.
Calculating the whereabouts and strongholds of the Seven Lotus Demon Sect is not an easy task.
It would require a rather extraordinary price to do so.
That was why Hou Dongbai had said that he needed to join forces with the Heavenly Yue Sect.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were both intelligent people.
At this moment, when they heard Hou Dongbai’s words, they immediately took the initiative to clasp their fists and said:
“To deal with the Seven Lotus Demon Sect, my generation of cultivators should be obliged to do so, if senior Hou has any need for my Jiang family in the future, you can send a message to us.”
Although in this kind of game that may involve the Jindan level, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan where they are the Purple Mansion Jiang family, and can’t play too much or even a decisive role.
But two people at this time this kind of attitude, but let Hou Dongbai quite satisfied, eyes more flowed a few appreciation color.
At that moment, he saw him nodding at the two.
“The good intentions of the two of you are appreciated.
After that, you only need to pay attention to the Seven Lotus Demon Cult’s traces.
If you really find anything, you can inform my Aqua Sword Pavilion at the first opportunity.”
“Yes!”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan naturally wouldn’t refuse such a request from Hou Dongbai.
Next Hou Dongbai briefly said some more words to the two of them, so Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan knowingly didn’t stay any longer, and left the Aqua Sword Pavilion after bidding farewell to Hou Dongbai and also Hua Mengyue.
Returning to the Jiang family, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan immediately went to their Xuanming Peak.
On Xuan Ming Peak.
Neither of the couple wasted any time, and they instantly entered their respective cultivation caves.
Preparing to utilize that Decadent Apricot Pear Fruit to try and raise their own cultivation levels.
This side.
Jiang Chengxuan had just taken out that Decanter Apricot Pear Fruit when a system prompt suddenly came from within his mind.
[Releasing a system task, requesting the host to complete the Thousand Transportation Achievement]
Current task progress: 0%]
Hearing this prompt from the system, Jiang Chengxuan’s heart was suddenly slightly stunned.
After the last hundred times of power movement achievements, the system had finally issued him a thousand times of power movement achievements?
Did this mean that those missions he had completed in the past would also receive the corresponding advancement?
If that was the case, then the corresponding mission rewards would be truly worth looking forward to.
Jiang Chengxuan thought in his heart.
From the progress of the mission displayed by the system in front of him, this time, it was clear that the mission was counting from the moment it was released.
If the progress of similar quests in the future were to be calculated according to today’s algorithm, then the amount of quests he would have in the future, as well as the amount of time and effort he would have to put in for them, would undoubtedly be much higher.
But still, as long as the rewards could keep up and were powerful, then no matter how much it took, it would be well worth it.
Others who wanted such an opportunity didn’t have it yet.
What was there for him not to be satisfied with?
At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan took out that one Decadent Apricot Pear Fruit from his own body.
Without much hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan took three or two bites, and already ate this Decadent Apricot Pear Fruit.
Immediately, he felt that a cool aura suddenly rose within his body.
Turning to that cool aura, it immediately began to transform into rolling pure mana that began to autonomously travel through his body.
Jiang Chengxuan didn’t slow down, and immediately began to utilize the Five Elements True Technique, thus beginning to guide that stream of mana, which began to run around his body.
