"I don't care what you think of the mission. Have you memorized the rules of reincarnation?"
Two minutes before departure, Ye Chong was still seriously instructing the two newbies — Zhang Dongsheng seemed to have appointed him as the person in charge, and he needed to be responsible for the results of this mission.
Qin Xuanji nodded seriously and said nothing. Gu Nan also nodded "seriously" and yawned.
Ye Chong's face was a little dark. He shouted at Gu Nan, "Gu Nan! Remember, even if the mission completely fails, you are not allowed to violate any of the rules of reincarnation. Do you understand?! "
"Understood …" Gu Nan still looked weak.
Ye Chong shook his head.
In fact, it was not that Gu Nan was deliberately looking for trouble, but he really could not take it seriously.
The so-called rules of reincarnation were what they had been asked to understand or at least memorize for the past seven days. It described all kinds of taboos during reincarnation.
For example, one must use one's real name for reincarnation, and the reincarnator must not leave karma in the reincarnation plane.
This was not the first time Gu Nan heard the word "karma".
He came to the Astral Realm because Gu Nian wanted to end his "karma". He was kidnapped and sent to the Bright Tower because someone did not want Gu Nian to end his "karma". Those people did not dare to kill him because they were afraid of being tainted by the "karma".
If the "karma" was not ended, the cultivator would be haunted by inner demons when he advanced to the next realm, causing him to die on the spot …
"I'd be a fool to believe you …" Gu Nan was disdainful.
If the power of karma affected the cultivator through inner demons, then why was there no karma in the original plane, but only during reincarnation?
Clearly, "karma" was related to "reincarnation".
The time for reincarnation arrived quickly. As a blue light flashed on the round table in the center of the tavern, the spirits of the four were pulled out and thrown into the other end of the endless void, into a broken small plane.
…
In the early morning, the crisp sound of birds echoed in the mountains. At the foot of the mountain, there was a dilapidated orphanage. Four young men and women gradually woke up.
It was Gu Nan and the other three.
Two boys and two girls. They were orphans adopted by the director of the orphanage 16 years ago. They grew up together.
The orphanage's director, Madam Luo Bing, was the main character of this mission. The Ice Soul Crystal in her bloodline was what the enemies were after.
Ye Chong got up the moment he opened his eyes and looked around. Seeing that his companions had woken up as well, he spoke as if it was a matter of course.
"The first wave of attack will come in a quarter of an hour. Make some simple defenses here or find a suitable weapon to eliminate the vanguard and buy time."
Lin Ruo continued, "We've reincarnated with our souls, so the recovery of our powers is very fast. However, it will still take about half a day. During this period, you must be careful of your own safety."
Reincarnating with one's Divine Soul would allow one's strength to recover extremely quickly. However, if one died during the reincarnation, their Divine Soul would also suffer heavy damage, and they might even die directly.
Therefore, when dealing with this kind of mission, the members of the Tower of Light would choose to give up on the mission if they felt that they could not handle it.
Lin Ruo's words were clearly directed at the two newcomers. Although she had some conflicts with Gu Nan, now was not the time to deal with personal conflicts.
Qin Xuanji's expression was solemn as she meticulously searched for a weapon. Before one's physical strength recovered, the impact of a weapon was still very great.
On the other hand, Gu Nan's expression was relaxed. However, he also began to search around. This made Ye Chong and Lin Ruo heave a sigh of relief.
They were afraid that Gu Nan would still not take this seriously and drag everyone down with him.
However, when he returned, the two of them could not laugh anymore. Qin Xuanji had at least found a hatchet, but Gu Nan had actually found a … bottle?
"Why are you looking for a bottle?! The enemies are coming soon. We have to rely on our current bodies to fight against more than ten Postnatal Realm opponents! "Lin Ruo roared at Gu Nan.
She felt like she was about to go crazy. She hated this kind of guy who was still sloppy when he was doing something serious.
They deserved to die! Yet, they had to drag their companions down …
"Who said we have to fight? You NPCs know nothing about dungeons! "Gu Nan curled his lips in disdain. He then said to Qin Xuanji," Lend me your knife. "
"Oh …"
Gu Nan held the hatchet in one hand and the empty bottle in the other as he walked into the house.
Coincidentally, the mission target, Lady Luo Bing, walked out of the house. Ye Chong quickly went up to her and said anxiously, "Godmother, get ready. Young Master Blue Sky's men are coming!"
As an orphan adopted by Luo Bing, the four of them had always addressed her as' godmother '.
When Luo Bing heard the words' Young Master Blue Sky ', her entire body trembled. Her face turned pale, "San Er, how did you know … Forget it, they're coming for me. You guys leave quickly, the further the better!"
Of course, Ye Chong could not say that he knew this from the previous missions. He turned to look at Lin Ruo.
According to his previous experience, he needed at least one person to cooperate with him in persuading Luo Bing. At least two people were needed to persuade her.
As long as he could persuade her and the other two to escape first, leaving the other two to guard the rear, it would be much easier.
Lin Ruo already knew the procedure. She walked up and gently hugged Luo Bing's arm. She said softly, "Godmother, you know that we grew up with you. If anything happens to you, we … sob sob …"
Lin Ruo's lovely appearance immediately moved Luo Bing, and the latter's expression softened.
Ye Chong could not help but praise her in his mind.
No matter how cold and arrogant Lin Ruo was usually, she was very competent when it came to missions. She acted like a little girl without any shyness.
However, just as the two of them were slightly relieved, a black light flashed and they felt something warm splashing on their faces.
Blood!
Luo Bing's blood!
That Gu Nan had actually slashed Luo Bing's neck!
Ye Chong felt blood rush to his head. His great plan had been ruined!
"Do you know what you're doing?! You … "He glared angrily as he charged over and grabbed Gu Nan's collar, speaking furiously.
However, Gu Nan pushed him away. "Move aside, don't get in my way."
"I … you …" Ye Chong was so angry that he could not speak.
Qin Xuanji was the only one who continued to stare at Gu Nan. After learning from Old Zhang how Gu Nan passed the test, she became very interested in this life.
She really wanted to know how he was going to complete this Sky Blue City mission.
Gu Nan squatted down and placed the bottle on the wound on Luo Bing's neck to catch the blood that flowed out.
Luo Bing was not completely dead yet. She stared at Gu Nan with her eyes wide open. She could not understand why the family she had relied on for 16 years would attack her.
"Why, why …"
Gu Nan looked at her. Because he needed to draw blood, it was not convenient to break her neck. Therefore, he spoke seriously.
"This is to protect your Ice Spirit Bloodline. Since you're going to die anyway, why not let us take your blood? At least we won't let Young Master Sky Blue get what he wants, right? "
