Since that day, Thought Moon Immortal would occasionally give Lu Ye missions through Wei Ling. They were all trivial matters, mostly related to eating and drinking.
There was even one mission that asked him to go to a nearby mountain pass to buy a special kind of wine.
Every time he completed a mission, he would gain merit points, ranging from a few hundred to two thousand. In just a few days, Lu Ye had gained close to ten thousand merit points.
The harvest was not bad, but Lu Ye felt that something was not right.
Things should not be developing like this.
On this day, Lu Ye was still cooking at Thought Moon Immortal's spiritual peak. He was roasting beast meat on the fire, boiling hot soup in the pot, and there were a few jars of wine on the table, waiting for Thought Moon Immortal's arrival.
Generally speaking, she would only show up when Lu Ye was ready. Suddenly, the smell of a burnt lake came. Yiyi turned her head and exclaimed, "Lu Ye, the lake is roasted!" She quickly went forward and snatched the roasted meat from his hand, trying to salvage the situation.
When she turned her head again, she saw Lu Ye frowning and sitting there with a bitter expression. "What's wrong?" Yiyi did not understand, not knowing what Lu Ye was worried about.
"Something's wrong!" Lu Ye shook his head.
"What's wrong?"
"It shouldn't be like this."
He entered the Military State Guards to guard the frontline, not to be a servant here. Although there were orders from above and no one disobeyed, what was he doing these days?
He suddenly stood up and kicked over the soup pot in front of him. In Yiyi's exclamation, he flipped over the table, and the wine he bought from the nearby mountain pass also fell to the ground. He looked up at the bamboo house not far away and cupped his fist. "Lord, subordinate has something to say!
On the third floor of the bamboo house, a beautiful figure appeared. Thought Moon Immortal floated down. Looking at the mess on the ground, she said, "Speak!"
"Lord, this subordinate requests Lord to give me some proper missions, please don't let this subordinate do these miscellaneous tasks." "The previous missions were not proper?"
Proper or not, don't you know?
Lu Ye had a stomach full of depression, but he had nowhere to vent. Although merit points were good things, it did not come from this. If this continued, he would be crippled.
"Sir, this is the Cang Yan Mountain Pass. You and I are both Military Prefecture Guards and should take care of our duties. We shouldn't be idle like this."
Nian Yue Xian, who was originally on the third floor, suddenly appeared in front of him. She was only a foot away from him, and her gaze became sharp. "Am I very old?"
"That's what I said, but that's not what I meant. Sir, there's no need to harp on the word 'tenancy'." Lu Ye couldn't help but take two steps back.
Nian Yue Immortal just stared at him quietly, making Lu Ye's hair stand on end.
After a while, she said, "I understand."
Lu Ye exhaled deeply and said in a deep voice, "If that's the case … I want to drink fish soup! "Ah?"
"Fish soup made from blood-red scales. I haven't had it in years."
Lu Ye suddenly didn't know how to respond, and … how did she know about the blood-red scales? This should be a product of the Moon Lake of the Jade Blood Sect, or had she tasted it somewhere else?
"Within five days, I want to drink fresh, blood-red fish soup!" Thought Moon Immortal said. "My lord, what I said just now …"
"You want to disobey?" Thought Moon Immortal's tone was unhurried.
Their eyes met, and after a long while, Lu Ye gritted his teeth and said word by word, "This subordinate obeys!"
As he said this, he waved his hand. Hu Po jumped up and was about to land on his shoulder, but he was sucked in by a force in midair. When he came back to his senses, he was already in Thought Moon Immortal's arms. Her slender, jade-like hand stroked Hu Po's fur like a kitten.
Master, save me!
Hu Po glared at the two tiger cubs, conveying his wish to Lu Ye. Lu Ye raised his hand and pressed down on the hilt of his saber, looking coldly at Thought Moon Immortal.
"The two of them stay with me. You go alone." Thought Moon Immortal didn't seem to notice his hostility. She turned around and threw her back to him, looking completely unguarded. "Don't worry, I won't eat it. It would have been better if she hadn't said this. As soon as she said this, Hu Po immediately trembled.
Yiyi stepped forward and grabbed Lu Ye's arm, shaking her head. "Don't be impulsive. Go quickly and come back quickly. She doesn't mean any harm.
The main thing was that he couldn't beat her. Her cultivation was at the Divine Ocean Realm. Even if she really didn't guard against Lu Ye, Lu Ye couldn't possibly be her opponent.
Moreover, in the Military Province Guards, offending one's superior was a great taboo!
"Please take good care of the two of them, sir. The two of them … are this subordinate's beloved friends!" After Lu Ye finished speaking, he soared into the sky. Fiery red spiritual energy flowed behind his back, transforming into a pair of wings, and he quickly flew away.
"Beloved friends, huh …" Thought Moon Immortal's figure paused. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she raised her hand to tap Hu Po's nose.
Seeing her reveal such an expression, Hu Po panicked even more. His eyes rolled back, and he directly fainted.
Thought Moon Immortal pinched his neck, saying softly, "If you don't wake up, then I'm going to cook a pot of tiger bone soup.
Hu Po immediately opened his eyes, full of energy, indicating that he was just taking a short nap.
He never would have thought that after entering the Military Province Guards, he wouldn't even see a single cultivator from the Myriad Devil Ridge, and would actually have to return to his sect first.
After these few days of contact, Lu Ye found that Thought Moon Immortal was more or less unreliable. He didn't know why he was so unlucky to be assigned to be her subordinate. Moreover, he was the only one assigned to the Vicissitude Flame Mountain Pass.
What exactly was going on over at Grand Sky City?
However, the allocation of soldiers was decided by the higher-ups, and Lu Ye couldn't do anything about it.
The journey to the Jade Blood Sect was not short, and Thought Moon Immortal only gave him five days. In other words, he had to rush back to his sect within two and a half days.
The mission had already been issued through the Guard Token. If he missed the deadline, not to mention not being able to complete the mission, Thought Moon Immortal would very likely make things difficult for him.
Lu Ye suspected that she was using this method to force him to leave the Vicissitude Flame Mountain Pass.
Before his arrival, she had always been alone. His arrival might have broken the peace of her life, causing her to feel a little uncomfortable. Therefore, she kept ordering him around and giving him some trivial missions. Otherwise, how could a Spirit Ocean Realm cultivator like her have so much appetite for food? She even asked him to go to the nearby mountain pass to buy some special wine.
Lu Ye also didn't see any signs of her drinking.
Time was of the essence, and he sped along. What made Lu Ye feel slightly relieved was that after his cultivation broke through to the True Lake Realm, his speed had greatly increased.
There was enough time to rush back and forth in five days. If it was before his breakthrough, this mission might have really failed.
He traveled through the night, and only occasionally stopped to recover his strength before continuing on his journey.
After a full two days, he finally arrived at the Fragrant Mountain.
He didn't guard the front, and went straight to the Moon Lake.
From afar, he saw Shui Yuan's figure waiting there.
Lu Ye had already informed Shui Yuan on the way, so his second senior sister knew that he was going to rush back. However, there was another figure beside Shui Yuan. When he got closer, he knew that it was Pang Huanyin. She had returned from the Wushuang Continent.
His figure flashed like lightning and landed in front of the two. "Senior Brother Lu!" Pang Huanyin greeted with a smile.
"Palace Master Pang," Lu Ye replied and looked at Shui Yuan, "Second Senior Sister, I'll catch some fish first. We'll talk later." Saying so, he flashed into the Moon Lake and shuttled back and forth.
A moment later, he rushed out again. His body was protected by Spirit Energy, so he didn't get wet at all.
"Congratulations, Senior Brother, for breaking through to the True Lake Realm." Pang Huanyin congratulated. The Spirit Energy fluctuations emitted by Lu Ye made her understand that he had broken through from the Eighth Order Cloud River Realm to the True Lake Realm in such a short period of time. She couldn't help but feel envious and amazed at how convenient it was for the cultivators of the Nine Regions to cultivate.
"Palace Master Pang, you're not far from the True Lake Realm." Lu Ye nodded.
Pang Huanyin was originally at the peak of the Cloud River Realm. Due to the environment of the Wushuang Continent, she couldn't break through to the True Lake Realm. Now that she was in the Nine Regions, the True Lake Realm was not the end of her cultivation. She would definitely reach the Spirit Ocean Realm in the future.
It was just that she had been busy with worldly affairs recently, so she didn't have time to cultivate in seclusion.
Many people from the Zi Wei Dao Palace had come to Fragrant Mountain with the help of the Blue Blood Sect's Heaven's Fate Pillar. They were building the sect and the foundation of the Sect on the thirty peaks that Pang Huanyin had marked out. After everything was done, the Zi Wei Dao Palace could establish a Sect in the Nine Regions. At that time, they would announce to the Military Province that the Blue Blood Sect was the Upper Sect.
The news had already spread, which shocked many Sects in the Military Province because there were many Sects more powerful than the Blue Blood Sect in the Military Province. Many people didn't understand why the Zi Wei Dao Palace chose the Blue Blood Sect as their Upper Sect.
Only a few people who knew the reason behind Pang Huanyin's decision.
This was a joyous occasion for the Blue Blood Sect, so no one was interfering.
"Second Senior Sister, do you know Thought Moon Immortal?" Lu Ye looked at Shui Yuan again.
Previously, when she was communicating with Shui Yuan, Lu Ye had mentioned the reason for her return. Naturally, she had also mentioned the Missing Moon Immortal. She had also complained a lot about the Missing Moon Immortal.
Shui Yuan didn't reply much and only told him to wait until they met.
However, from Shui Yuan's words, she seemed to know Thought Moon Immortal.
"I know her. Logically speaking, I should call her Senior Sister." Shui Yuan nodded.
Lu Ye couldn't help but be surprised. "She also came from our Blue Blood Sect?"
But then again, Yiyi was right when she called Thought Moon Immortal sister. On the contrary, it was wrong for him to call her Senior.
"Of course not." Shui Yuan laughed. "She has never joined any Sect. Strictly speaking, she is a Loose Cultivator.
"A Loose Cultivator!" Lu Ye exclaimed.
He more or less knew how harsh the environment was for Loose Cultivators to grow up in. On the path of cultivation, Loose Cultivators needed to put in much more effort than Sect disciples. For a Loose Cultivator to cultivate to the Divine Sea Realm, it was impossible to imagine how many hardships she had experienced on the path of cultivation.
Just from this point alone, Lu Ye was filled with admiration.
"Does she have a grudge with our Blue Blood Sect?"
"No."
"Then why is she tormenting me like that?"
Initially, Lu Ye didn't realize what was going on. He only saw that he had completed the mission and obtained battle merits and was rather happy. However, after interacting with her for a few days, Lu Ye finally saw some clues. The Thought Moon Immortal was tormenting him. Otherwise, why would she give him those missions when he was at the True Lake Stage? Mobile users, please browse.
