"Brother Zifeng, I heard from mother that you accepted a mission to kill a Thunder Rhino." Ye Xueyi's light voice and hurried footsteps could be heard.
"The news travels pretty fast." Ye Zifeng smiled and gave her a peach biscuit, "Here, try this. I bought this from an old store. I heard from your mother that this is your favorite."
Ye Xueyi pushed Ye Zifeng's hand away, "Brother Zifeng, how can you still be in the mood to eat peach biscuits at a time like this?"
Ye Zifeng chuckled, "Since it's like this, we can only let nature take its course."
Two beads of blood seeped out of Ye Xue Yi's soft red lips, reflecting her silver teeth. At this moment, she really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Brother Zifeng, hurry up and get up. Come with me to the sect and find Elder Qin to exchange for a mission." She tried to pull Ye Zifeng's hand.
Ye Zifeng dodged her hand and shook his head, "Once a mission is issued, there's no way to change it. You should know this rule right?"
Ye Xueyi was worried, "Even if you can't change it, you can still give up. At most, you won't be able to accept missions for three months."
"Do you have no confidence in me?" Ye Zifeng smiled, "Last time, I taught a lesson to Liu Yige who was at the peak of the fifth stage of qi refining. Do you think that I don't have any hope? "
"This ….."
Ye Xueyi's expression changed. She didn't know what method Ye Zifeng used to injure Liu Yige and force him to spit out a few mouthfuls of blood.
"But brother Zifeng, you've never killed before and this is your first time accepting a mission. The Thunder Rhino's lightning attacks are very strong. I'm afraid that something will happen to you ….."
"If there's no danger, then where would the reward come from? The more dangerous the mission, the more worth it is. " Ye Zifeng smiled, "Also, don't worry Xueyi. Since we have three days, then dealing with a fierce beast like the Thunder Rhino shouldn't be too hard. I already have an idea of what to do."
"So you're saying that you won't give up on this mission?"
Ye Feng looked at her firmly and nodded deeply.
Ye Xueyi pouted. Seeing that no matter how hard she tried to persuade Ye Zifeng, Ye Zifeng became even more determined. She could only helplessly give up and sigh.
"Come, Xueyi, try this peach pastry!"
Ye Zifeng smiled and brought the biscuit to Xueyi's mouth. Ye Xue Yi turned her head and gently stroked her long hair. Her expression was silent. She didn't want to look at Ye Feng.
"Come. Eat. Eat …. Don't be so polite with me." Ye Zifeng called out.
A smile flashed across Ye Xue Yi's watery eyes, and she smiled.
"Thank you brother Zifeng!" She turned around, took the pastry, and quickly ran away.
Ye Zifeng's gaze moved from Xue Yi's back to the cauldron and smiled. When he turned his head back, his expression became serious.
"Then let's begin. Make the necessary preparations for the next mission."
…
The Cloud Heaven Valley is a place where the fierce beasts in the Ashen Spirit Sect gather. All of the fierce beasts in the Ashen Spirit Sect are in the Common Tier. These fierce beasts are used for the disciples to complete missions and train their willpower.
At the entrance of the valley, the Hidden Heart Palace's sword servants were giving out maps of the valley to the disciples.
"Look at that person. That's Ye Zifeng. He's only at the third stage of qi refining and he wants to challenge a Thunder Rhino at the peak of the fourth stage of qi refining!"
"Thunder Rhino. Could it be the mission that even Xiao Mu failed a few times?"
"Shhh …. Quiet down. Young master Xiao is here."
Xiao Mu coldly coughed, and the people who were still discussing immediately shut their mouths, not saying anything more.
"What are you guys worried about? This Ye Zifeng must have a screw loose in his brain to choose this mission. Don't make it sound like he can complete it. From what I can see, he won't be able to return this time! "
This sentence was very loud, and it immediately attracted the attention of almost everyone.
Ye Zifeng smiled and walked up, "Then what if I complete the mission and come back?"
Xiao Mu's expression froze. It's possible for Ye Zifeng to come back but it's impossible for him to complete the mission. For someone who's going to cross realms to complete the mission, it's harder than climbing the heavens.
"Then I'll ….. I'll ….." Xiao Mu didn't know what to bet.
Ye Zifeng smiled, "How about this. I don't want you to kowtow like Wang Lin. Otherwise, it'll hurt our relationship. As long as you promise me that if I complete the mission and come back safely, you'll give me your contribution points. How about it? "
Compared to these fake things, Ye Zifeng wanted to be more practical and increase his strength as soon as possible.
"You want my contribution points? Fifth stage of qi refining? That's a hundred points! " Xiao Mu was shocked. Even though his family was well-off, the things that could be exchanged for with contribution points weren't things that money could buy.
Ye Zifeng smiled, "If I can't complete the mission, then I'll repair the walls every month and earn five contribution points. I'll split it over two years. How about that?"
"If it's two years, then …"
"One hundred and twenty points." Ye Zifeng smiled.
Xiao Mu pondered for a bit and started to think about Ye Zifeng's suggestion. If Ye Zifeng fails the mission, then not only will he get 120 points, he can also use this opportunity to humiliate Ye Zifeng. His chances of winning are much higher than Ye Zifeng's. This was a very good bet for him.
"Fine. You're only at the third stage of qi refining. This is your first time doing a mission and you dare to boast like this. I, Xiao Mu, will teach you a lesson. But as for the contribution points ….." Xiao Mu looked at Mo Yu.
Mo Yu calmly replied, "If the person involved doesn't have any objections, then we don't mind. The contribution points can be transferred."
Xiao Mu's face lit up. It was as if he had already gotten the 120 contribution points.
"Since it's like this, then I'll have to ask Senior brother Mo and everyone else to be witnesses. Thank you." Ye Zifeng had a bright smile on his face.
After everyone finished watching the show, the Sword Servant started to organize the disciples. After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the disciples would enter the Cloud Sky Valley on their own.
Right when Ye Zifeng was about to enter, Xiao Mu smiled and put his hand on Ye Zifeng's shoulder.
"What else do you want?" Ye Zifeng didn't like it when people put their arms around his shoulder, especially people that he hated.
Xiao Mu smiled and said, "When we made the bet, I forgot to tell you one thing. If you can't complete your mission, then forget it. If you die in the Cloud Sky Valley, then I, Xiao Mu, will be generous and not ask you for your 120 contribution points. "
"Then ….. Thank you." Ye Zifeng's eyes narrowed. Under the command of the Sword Servant, he entered the Cloud Sky Valley.
… …
Ye Zifeng followed the area on the map and passed through a small forest. This was the location of his mission, the Clear Water Pool.
Before the Thunder Rhinoceros reached adulthood, it would usually fight for territory with some low-level wild beasts, and this Clearwater Pool was obviously its territory.
This time, because it was a solo mission, Ye Zifeng didn't need to hide his strength anymore. It was much easier for him to move around. This was the reason why he dared to accept this mission.
"First, let's see how far you can go with your Electric Discharge."
The corner of Ye Feng's mouth curled up into a cold smile. A ball of black death aura condensed in his palm. The death aura wrapped around his five fingers and gradually condensed into a black imprint. Then, he suddenly struck out at the Lightning Rhinoceros with his palm.
In a split second, a huge black palm imprint flew towards the Thunder Rhinoceros. It was like a streak of heavenly flame that flew across the sky.
This was clearly not the first time that the Thunder Rhinoceros had encountered a challenge from humans. It had long since developed an absolute sense of danger. At this moment, its entire body shone with a blue light. Waves of spiraling waves swept up layers of ripples with it as the center. Electric currents were like tangible needles, flowing in all directions in the air.
The black palm imprint was blocked by the air wall formed by the lightning. After a short while, the black palm imprint was turned into a white gas and dissipated into the air.
"It can actually disperse the death qi. This Thunder Rhinoceros is quite strong." Ye Zifeng was startled. He thought that he could at least injure the Thunder Rhinoceros a bit but he didn't expect that his attack would be useless.
However, after thinking about it, he understood that it was better to use death qi in close combat. Last time, Liu Yige gave up on defending and was caught by Ye Zifeng's sneak attack. Qi refining stage disciples don't really care about life and death battles so they won't use their full strength every time they attack. However, the Thunder Rhinoceros was different. It would encounter a life and death situation every month. Every cell in its body was extremely sensitive to danger. Because of this, Ye Zifeng's sneak attack failed.
Also, if Ye Zifeng was careless and rash, he would have fainted before he could even get close to the Thunder Rhinoceros. Xiao Mu had fainted a few times, but with his fifth qi refining realm and his cowardly nature, he was able to stay alive and come back alive.
The Thunder Rhinoceros roared. It could already see Ye Zifeng from afar. However, Ye Zifeng was using a long range attack. There was still quite a distance between them so the Thunder Rhinoceros didn't dare to attack recklessly.
"Normally, Thunder Rhinoceros are slow witted and have poor vision. However, their sense of smell and hearing are very sharp. It seems like I can't fight you head on. "
