Everyone in Yingyun City narrowed their eyes when they heard this. As expected, this youth had a motive. He would not help them for no reason.
"What is it?"
Huai Hongxiu asked plainly. There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. It was more reassuring for this youth to say it out loud. If this was a deal that Yingyun City could afford and this youth could really help them overcome this crisis, it would undoubtedly be the best outcome.
"Two thousand three hundred years ago, Wise Man Huai Guang of Yingyun City obtained a sachet. Just return it."
Mo Wen said after some thought. That was what the mission had said.
"Sachet?"
Everyone was slightly stunned. This youth had come for a sachet? What was that sachet? Could it be some mysterious treasure?
For a moment, everyone was guessing what the sachet was. It had to be something extraordinary for this youth to protect them with all his might.
"Two thousand three hundred years ago … sachet …"
Huai Hongxiu furrowed her brows and thought carefully. Soon, her eyes brightened. She looked at Mo Wen in shock and asked, "You are someone invited by that senior?"
Huai Hongxiu's heart was in turmoil. The words that her father had said all those years ago had actually come true.
As the current city lord of Yingyun City, she had naturally taken over everything in Yingyun City, including the treasures in the clan's treasury. In the treasury, there was a sachet that had always been kept by her father and treated like a treasure.
Originally, she did not know what the sachet meant. Later, she found out that her father had gone out by chance two thousand three hundred years ago and saved a senior by chance. It was said that the senior's cultivation was unfathomable. Even her father was far inferior. The sachet had been given to her father by that senior. With this item, if she encountered an unsolvable problem in the future, she could ask that senior for help once.
However, although Huai Hongxiu knew about this, her father had died unexpectedly and left suddenly. She did not know how to contact that senior, so she had never thought of using the sachet to ask for help. She did not expect that the owner of the sachet, that senior, would take the initiative to ask someone to help them.
That senior? Mo Wen touched his chin and did not deny it.
From Huai Hongxiu's expression, she most likely knew the person who had given him the mission. The sachet was also a form of connection between them. But what did it have to do with him? Mo Wen wanted to curse in his heart. That old lady had actually used her official position for her own personal gain, using her official position to solve her personal problems.
But on second thought, he had to do quests either way. Changing to another quest might be even more difficult. At least this quest wasn't unacceptable to him.
The trial mission was tailored according to one's actual abilities. It was so that everyone could be sufficiently tested. Regardless of whether they were at the beginning stage of the Tide Changing Realm or at the great attainment of the Tide Changing Realm, it would not be easy for anyone to complete this mission.
The old woman from the Sorcerer Clan was an ancient existence in the Divine Illusionary Realm. She could most likely tell that Mo Wen was not an ordinary cultivator at a glance. If it had been any other task, the difficulty might not have been as easy as this.
"Were you really invited by that senior? Will that senior come? "
Huai Hongxiu exclaimed in pleasant surprise. She was very excited. She had never expected that the senior who owed her father a favor would actually take the initiative to help them.
According to my father, that senior's cultivation was unfathomable. If that senior could come to Yingyun City, all our problems would be easily solved.
"I alone am enough." Mo Wen shook his head. This trial mission was his to begin with. How could that person possibly come?
Upon hearing this, Huai Hongxiu was immediately a little disappointed. Although this youth was extraordinary and could even exchange blows with the Muhong City Mayor, he was probably not strong enough to protect Yingyun City. Right now, Yingyun City was alone, while Muhong City was like the sun in the sky. The difference between the two was too great. How could a Tide Changing Realm cultivator change this situation?
"Then did the senior not say anything else?" Huai Hongxiu asked hopefully. She hoped that the senior had other backup plans and not just sent this youth.
"I don't know about that." Mo Wen still shook his head.
"Alright." Huai Hongxiu sighed. She knew that she would not be able to get anything out of this youth.
But one thing was for sure: this youth probably had no ill intentions towards Yingyun City. After all, there were very few people who knew about the brocade pouch. Aside from her father, Wise Man Huai Guang, she was the only one. Even her little sister did not know about it.
"Brother Mo, I did not know your identity before. Please forgive me for my lack of manners." Huai Hongxiu was a little embarrassed as she bowed to Mo Wen. After all, he had come all this way to help them, yet they were still so suspicious.
The Huai Clan second young mistress and the people of Yingyun City all looked at Mo Wen curiously. Could it be that this person really had some sort of relationship with Yingyun City?
After that, the Huai Clan first young mistress held an extravagant banquet in Yingyun City to welcome Mo Wen. All the higher-ups of Yingyun City came. With the addition of an expert like Mo Wen, the atmosphere in Yingyun City was slightly more relaxed. It was not as lifeless as before.
After the previous incident, the people of Muhong City clearly would not be able to attack the city in a short period of time. Everyone relaxed, and the banquet was filled with laughter and chatter.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Mo Wen returned to the manor house that Huai Hongxiu had temporarily arranged for him. For the next period of time, he would naturally be staying in Yingyun City. Only when the threat of Muhong City was completely resolved could he leave this place.
How could he resolve the threat of Muhong City? The best and most direct way was naturally to kill the mayor of Muhong City, as well as a portion of the higher-ups of Muhong City.
However, the mayor of Muhong City was a Supreme Profundity Realm cultivator, and it would not be easy to kill him. With Mo Wen's current ability, killing a Supreme Profundity Realm cultivator was rather difficult. If he could break through to the intermediate stage of the Tide Changing Realm, there might be a chance, so this matter had to be considered at length.
Early the next morning, Huai Hongxiu brought a group of Yingyun City's higher-ups to visit the manor.
After yesterday's banquet, Mo Wen had become familiar with the higher-ups of Yingyun City. Among this group of people, most of their cultivations were at the intermediate stage of the Tide Changing Realm. Including Huai Hongxiu, there were four cultivators with great attainment at the Tide Changing Realm, and the strongest among them was probably Huai Hongxiu.
Huai Hongxiu had outstanding talent and had always been a famous genius female cultivator in the Ruyun Territorial Waters. She was the person in Yingyun City who was most likely to break through to the Supreme Profundity Realm. After inheriting the position of mayor, she had become even more awe-inspiring. With the help of Yingyun City's few great inherited treasures, she had managed to block a few waves of attacks from the mayor of Muhong City.
The other three cultivators with great attainment at the Tide Changing Realm were veterans of Yingyun City. The strongest of the three was someone called Elder Xue, and this person was only a step away from the Supreme Profundity Realm.
Huai Hongxiu had brought a group of people to the manor early in the morning to look for Mo Wen. It was obvious that it was about Yingyun City.
