n's 'advice', he simply replied: "I am not that brilliant, unable to see through conspiracies at a glance or easily detect traps. The reason I give trust is simple - as long as you do not threaten my...Jiang Wang had also heard of the bounty missions in Sān Shān City, but for some reason, this mission was not posted on the Dao Xun list, but was unilaterally issued by Sān Shān City and directed at everyone.

In a sense, it lacked the backing of Zhuang Ting.

Of course, the rewards for the mission were not funded by Zhuang Ting. It is said that the City Lord of Sanshan emptied his treasury for this purpose, so the rewards are considerably more generous than those for missions of the same level on the Dao Xun List.

“They are all real physical rewards, such as magic weapons, secret techniques, and Dao Yuan stones.” Li Jianqiu added.

Although tangible rewards are not as convenient as Dao honors, the fact that they are difficult to quantify often makes them more valuable than Dao honor awards.

"Excuse me, Brother Li," Jiang Wang thought for a moment and said, "For this kind of task that requires teamwork, why don't you bring your own team Especially since the reward is very good."

This is a test.

As a rule, disciples from the Daoist Academies who frequently go on missions have fixed team compositions. For example, Zhang Linchuan and Wang Changxiang are both like this; they are both core figures in their respective teams.

After Ling He, Zhao Ru Cheng and the others had finished laying the foundation, they would also gather together to complete various tasks, rather than being separated most of the time like now, trailing behind other teams.

Only Li Jianqiu seemed to always be alone.

Li Jianqiu pursed his lips and said, "They're all dead. Only I remain."

Everyone looked at each other in surprise, at a loss for words. Although practitioners of the Way should be indifferent to life and death, they are still human beings. Who could remain unaffected

Huang Azhan let out a dry laugh, trying to ease the tension: "Well, senior brother, your team doesn't seem very auspicious..."

Ling He pulled him aside and proactively said, "Brother Li, this mission isn't on the Dao Xun list, so there's no level assessment. But judging from the rewards, the difficulty will definitely not be lower than rank seven. To be honest, our strength isn't quite up to par, I'm afraid we might hold you back."

"Actually, the overall difficulty of this extermination mission should be around sixth rank." Li Jianqiu remained expressionless and continued, "But you must know that Sanshan City is named after the three mountains within its territory: Shubi, Yuheng, and Feilai. These three mountains, either majestic or precipitous, are all famous ones. Sanshan City is named after them, but at the same time, these three peaks are also the source of ferocious beast rampages in the Sanshan City area."

"Beast's lair" Jiang Wang asked.

Li Jianqiu nodded. "Among them, Shubi Peak was wiped out two years ago. After two years, I presume San Shan City has accumulated enough power. This time, their target is Yuheng Peak. But we're not going to Yuheng Peak; we're going to Shubi Peak."

"The peak of the vertical brush is not already..."

"Although Mount Shu Bi has been cleared out. Two years have passed, and new ferocious beasts are roaming around, but they are scattered and not organized. Our target is them. So the mission difficulty will be relatively much simpler." Li Jianqiu said this, picked up his chopsticks: "That's how things are, you decide whether to go or not, not going won't affect our friendship."

Jiang Wang knew that while he was acquainted with Li Jianqiu, their relationship was merely superficial. They had a good impression of each other, but to speak of deep friendship, it wasn't there.

If this refusal, it should be estranged.

But Jiang Wang would not simply agree to it just because he wanted to befriend Li Jianqiu. He was genuinely interested in this mission. Firstly, the reward was generous. Secondly, he also wanted to contribute to the current difficulties faced by San Shan City Region. Thirdly, his foundation was about to be completed in a few days, and he needed a mission like this to familiarize himself with Dao techniques.

Having thought of this, Jiang Wang directly said: “It is our fortune that Brother Li with his strength is willing to take us along.”

Li Jianqiu looked at Jiang Wang meaningfully: "Just that sword you used to kill Xiong Wen is enough qualification. And among your group, Ling He is steady and thoughtful, Du Yecho has extraordinary fighting talent and is fearless, and Zhao Rucheng is intelligent and gifted."

He even praised the absent Tora Duan, so naturally he wouldn't miss Huang Ajian: "Xiao Huang... is also very clever."

"Brother Li, you have sharp eyes!" Huang A-zhan immediately echoed.

“I’m out.” Ling He said, “My meridians have only been opened for a short time, and I’m still accumulating Dao Yuan to lay the foundation. I’ll stay at the Dao Institute and take care of An An by the way.”

After opening up the meridians but before laying the foundation, it is indeed a very awkward stage for cultivators. On the one hand, they need to accumulate dao yuan to lay the foundation. On the other hand, if they do not rely on dao yuan, they cannot display extraordinary combat power. Those like Jiang Wang who possess extraordinary sword manuals are exceptional cases.

Whether it's mentorship or just taking care of him, Ling He didn't want to "hang out" with them. He preferred to take things step by step and progress steadily.

"Alright, then Big Brother stays." The group's relationship didn't require any pretense; Jiang Wang decisively agreed.

The final lineup for the trip to Sanshan City was: Li Jianqiu, Jiang Wang, Zhao Ruchen, and Huang Azhan. They agreed to depart from the South Gate in three days.

The ancestral home of the Wang clan.

It was still that secluded courtyard, and Wang Changxiang strode in with great excitement. "Brother!"

At that time, King Changji was leaning on a lounge chair, holding a yellowed old book in his hand, and a fat orange cat lay at his feet, enjoying the sunshine of early winter together.

Hearing Wang Changxiang's voice, he didn't move, just lazily said, "What's up"

On the other hand, when the orange cat saw Wang Changxiang, it turned its back on him with great displeasure.

"Look!" Wang Changxiang hurried a few steps, ran up to Wang Changxiang, and bent slightly, circling a jade bottle in front of his brother. "What is this"

Wang Changji naturally recognized this bottle; he even clearly remembered the specific appearance of the pill inside the jade bottle, every detail.

However, after initially harboring great expectations, he was met with immense disappointment.

At that moment, no one knew how many emotions flashed through his mind, but he eventually just raised an eyebrow: "Your quota has been used up. One thousand five hundred Dao points, hard to get together, right"

"It's not difficult." Wang Changxiang shook his head and smiled brilliantly: "My younger brother, three cities debate the Tao for three years, always top scorer!"

Wang Changxiang's usual image is gentle and steady. Only in this small courtyard does he occasionally show a touch of unconventionality.

Wang Changji turned over a page of the book: "You're kind, but it means nothing to me."

Try it, try it again.

Wang Changji glanced at the lazy orange cat dozing at his feet, "Feed it. It'd be better to feed the little orange one. That way, it'll live longer and be more affectionate towards you."

"That can't be done, Father will beat me to death."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"If you give me food, he won't beat you"

"He... his heart is also aching for you."

"You can get the first place, and your clan has also put in resources. There must be a harvest. Take the Kai脈 Dan back." Wang Changji covered his face with a book: "It's time for my nap."

Wang Changxiang panicked: "Brother!"

"If you leave the pills, I'll feed them to Xiaoju." Wang Changji's voice came from under the book, still as calm as ever.

But Wang Changxiang had realized that kind of determination.

He could only put the jade bottle away and leave, turning back every three steps.

He saw the ancient book his elder brother had laid over his face. It was a Daoist scripture, titled "The Sutra of Saving Others." over the islands is far less than powerful organizations like Diaohai Lou, and they certainly can't compare to Yanggu, which functions like a military camp.Therefore, it is suitable for hiding.Leavin...
