Chapter 5

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Every time she faced the mission options, Bai Lian would become extremely cautious.

This damn system refused to give up on her. She had to be careful!

In fact, Bai Lian still had thoughts about those mission rewards. It couldn’t be helped. After all, the mission rewards were so rich.

For example, the reward for Mission 1, the “Five Spirit Immortal Scripture”. According to the tool description, this immortal cultivation method was created by an ancient mighty figure, Daoist Five Spirit.

Back then, since Daoist Wu Ling’s enemy couldn’t kill Daoist Wu Ling, the other party tried to suppress him under the divine mountain.

Unfortunately, Daoist Five Spirit’s head was pressed down by the divine mountain, revealing his butt. Therefore, Daoist Five Spirit could only concentrate on comprehending the Dao.

This comprehension lasted for a hundred years.

One day, Daoist Wu Ling, who had been through “suffering”, finally comprehended the Five Spirit Immortal Scripture. He broke free from his restraints and transcended the tribulation in a second, ascending on the spot.

Bai Lian was shocked speechless!

It was too difficult.

Bai Lian shook her head. This was clearly not something a Foundation Establishment cultivator like her could covet.

It looked like the evil cultivator who stopped Second Junior Sister was very strong, or rather, there was a large group of people behind him.

After beating him, more people would show up to take revenge for him.

Bai Lian looked at the next few missions.

Mission three could be ignored directly.

Why would she choose to join the team that was bullying Second Junior Sister?

Wouldn’t she just make the other party hate her for no reason? She was here to invite her “backer” back to Qiong Ming Peak.

Bai Lian’s gaze stopped on Mission 2 for a long time.

High-grade artifact…

The Stainless Sword in her hand was only a medium-grade magic weapon. If she could obtain a high-grade magic weapon, Bai Lian felt that she could completely fight against an early-stage Golden Core cultivator.

“The risk is too high. Forget it.”

Bai Lian chose option four…

She would play the role of a bystander first!

[Mission completed. Mission reward: Soft body skill+1]

Bai Lian felt that she was indeed a little soft.

When she looked up, the situation in the arena changed.

Suddenly, a dark purple stream of light shot towards the evil cultivator like an arrow. Because its speed was too fast, a deafening explosion sounded in the square. Many people with lower cultivation levels were overturned on the spot.

Before Bai Lian could figure out the situation, the evil cultivator started fighting the person who suddenly appeared.

“?”

Bai Lian opened her mouth slightly.

If she had chosen Mission 1 or Mission 2 just now, she would definitely have been involved in this battle.

These two people’s cultivation levels were not lower than hers.

Then here was the problem!

They would also be involved in a battle. Why was the difference in the rewards between Mission 1 and Mission 2 so big?

After all, 100 high-grade artifacts couldn’t compare to the Five Spirit Immortal Scripture.

Bai Lian was puzzled. She believed that the system wouldn’t make a mistake in the reward. There must be a special reason behind it.

As she thought about it, Bai Lian’s eyes lit up.

“I understand!”

In another way of thinking, she could completely treat the system mission as a danger warning signal. The first mission was a red warning, the second mission was a yellow warning… And the last mission was perfectly safe.

Although he couldn’t get full marks by constantly picking the last option, at least she wouldn’t die on the spot and end up with a score of 0.

…

The battle caused the cultivators who came to recruit newbies to be seriously dissatisfied. No matter what, Green Mountain City was their territory. This unknown person coming to cause trouble was slapping their faces.

Immortal cultivators couldn’t be humiliated!!!

“Stop!”

An old man stood out aggressively with a golden bell in hand. His body was enveloped in golden light, like a god.

His voice was also like thunder. “I’m Elder Xudong, how dare you…”

“Who the hell are you?”

Before the old man could finish speaking, he was beaten up by the dozens of fist shadows flying over.

The other cultivators immediately withered.

They couldn’t afford to offend him.

“Please continue…”

The two of them were locked in battle in the center of the battlefield. Many people suffered because of this.

In the end, they still stopped. As if they had reached a consensus, they stopped Xiao Jinse, who was trying to sneak away, one after another.

The evil cultivator lowered his eyes and said to Xiao Jinse, who was clenching her fists impatiently, “Little girl, repair your crippled spiritual root and step onto the immortal path from now on. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Do you plan to watch as the opportunity slips away from your eyes?”

Another person also said, “He and I can help you repair your crippled spiritual root. Make your choice”

Xiao Jinse gritted her teeth.

The square fell into silence.

The Xiao family members held their breaths, afraid that Xiao Jinse’s actions would cause the two evil cultivators to be unhappy.

Suddenly, someone stood up. “What are you waiting for? In the name of the Xiao family’s elder, I order you to quickly agree to the two immortal masters. Don’t be ungrateful!”

Someone else said, “This is a good thing that brings honor to our ancestors. Sister Jinse, stop hesitating!”

Xiao Jinse’s eyes gradually dimmed.

Her heart ached.

She lived in a big family that seemed lively, but what was the difference between her situation and walking alone in the dark?

There was no sun in her sky, only darkness.

Become a furnace?

This was definitely impossible. She would rather die.

Bai Lian pressed on the hilt of the sword, and her sheath moved.

At this point, she had to make an entrance and increase her favorability!

The two of them fought for a long time and were injured. She was confident that she could safely take Xiao Jinse away.

It had to be said that she was indeed a protagonist of a feel-good novel. She caused trouble wherever she went.

Although Xiao Jinse’s grandfather had been torn apart by An Lan, there was no need to be afraid. Now, Big Sister was here!

Bai Lian had just taken a step forward when three new options suddenly appeared in front of her.

[Mission 1: Kill two evil cultivators and avenge Xiao Jinse (Mission Reward: Five Spirits Immortal Scripture)]

[Mission 2: Beat the two evil cultivators and scare them away (Mission Reward: Top-grade Dharma artifact, Green Feather Umbrella)]

[Mission 3: Throw out An Lan’s identity card and say: Stop! (Mission Reward: Focus+1)]

“Again?”

Bai Lian once thought that she and the Five Spirit Immortal Scripture were fated.

Damn.

After eyeing it for a while, she was angry.

These two people were definitely big shots. Otherwise, why would the rewards be so rich just from fighting them?

Just like in the beginning, Bai Lian ignored the first two missions.

She thought about it carefully and felt that mission three was the easiest. There was no need to do anything.

She took a step forward and threw out the identity card An Lan handed her in front of everyone.

“Stop!”

Her voice was as clear as frost.

She was as clear as a snow lotus, emitting an unapproachable coldness.

The evil cultivator who stopped Xiao Jinse at the start caught the identity card. He glanced at it casually, but when the words [Immortal Du Sect’s Qiong Ming Peak] appeared in his eyes, his expression suddenly changed.

“How is this possible?”

He looked up and stared at Bai Lian. The more he looked at her, the more he felt that he was having a seizure.

“What’s wrong with you?”

The other evil cultivator frowned.

“Cut the crap!”

The first evil cultivator pulled his opponent and knelt down. He said in a trembling voice, “I, I, I… I didn’t know that Fairy Bai Lian of the Immortal Du Sect was here. I’m sorry, please punish me!”

Clap, clap, clap.

Bai Lian clearly saw the sweat coming out of the heads of these two smelly brothers.

It was wet and slippery.

Disgusting.

Xiao Jinse looked at the scene in front of her in shock.

The others in the square were also stunned. Who exactly was this girl who looked like a fairy and caused waves?

“Fairy Bai Lian?”

“Immortal Du Sect?”

“Oh, I understand!”

A young man suddenly shouted. Everyone looked at him curiously.

The young man whispered, “Three years ago, I was lucky enough to watch the Immortal Ascension Assembly of the Immortal Sect. At that time, Immortal Master An Lan of Qiong Ming Peak took in a new disciple named Bai Lian!”

“Is she very powerful?”

“She’s more than powerful! I heard that Fairy Bai Lian’s talent is extremely high and she’s known as a natural saint. Even the Sect Master of the Immortal Du Sect was shocked by this! You’ve heard of the Jade Pool Sacred Mountain, right? That’s a top-notch immortal sect in our East God Province. After hearing Fairy Bai Lian’s name, they’re even willing to exchange the former and current Holy Maiden with the Immortal Du Sect!”

“Hiss…”

The people in the square gasped.

The corners of Bai Lian’s eyes twitched. Why didn’t she know about this?

“This isn’t the most exaggerated thing.” The young man continued, “I heard that Fairy Bai Lian already broke through to the Golden Core stage a year ago. She only took two years to go from a mortal to the Golden Core stage. She might be almost at the Nascent Soul stage now!”

Although many people couldn’t understand what the young man was saying, they still hissed with the surrounding people.

Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss…

Bai Lian almost thought that she was surrounded by rattlesnakes.

But none of this was true.

She really wanted to clarify to these people…

Why did they have to go around and spread false rumors!

But after seeing the two evil cultivators lie down, she temporarily gave up on this plan.

Even if she explained herself, no one would believe her, right? Moreover, it might attract trouble.

A few immortal cultivators slowly walked in front of Bai Lian.

“Greetings, Fairy Bai Lian.”

“I wonder why Fairy Bai Lian is here in our countryside?”

“Bastard, are you even qualified to ask Fairy Bai Lian that question?”

Bai Lian waved her hand helplessly. “It’s alright.”

She quickly walked in front of the surprised Xiao Jinse and said, “Junior Sister, the three years are up. Master asked me to bring you back to Qiong Ming Peak!”

Huh?

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present was stunned.
