Taihuang Star Seal

Chapter 226: Murderous intention arises!

Although Ding Chen successfully received the "gold level" task after paying the deposit.

But in the eyes of most of his disciples, he was just a "stupid and rich" idiot.

Only Liu Hong believed from the bottom of his heart that Ding Chen could complete the task!

Just as the two were about to leave the mission hall, a familiar figure swaggered in.

"Is there anyone who wants to take my mission?"

The fat old man with big ears who asked questions at the top of his voice as soon as he stepped into the door was none other than the chief elder of the menial disciples area: Fang Jianfeng.

Ever since his Xuan Cultivation Realm dropped drastically, and his battle pet was eager to devour its master;

In order to tame the [Five-tailed King Kong Fox] again, Fang Jianfeng did not hesitate to give up the precious medicinal herb [Wood Gu Fruit] of the top grade Xuan level as a mission reward.

In the year and a half after the mission was released, many people have tried it one after another.

But without exception, they all ended in failure.

Later, the mission difficulty level increased.

The number of people accepting the mission is also decreasing...

Fang Jianfeng became more and more anxious about this!

Because as time went by, he was almost unable to suppress the Xuan-level monster.

Once it completely loses control, the Xuan-level low-grade monster with combat power comparable to the "third level of Xuanhai Realm" may gnaw on the head of Jianfeng below at any time!

But Fang Jianfeng couldn't bear to release it or kill it.

His cultivation level had plummeted, but he was able to have some say among the outer sect elders thanks to this lower-grade Xuan-level war pet.

If he loses the [Five-tailed Vajra Fox], his Xuan cultivation realm will only be the first level of Xuanhai Realm, and he will be at the bottom of the list among the outer sect elders as he is already quite old.

Fang Jianfeng felt so angry when he thought about his colleagues who used to act according to his mood, but one day they turned against him and bullied him.

He would never allow that to happen!

Because of this, he became more concerned about the tasks he issued.

I take time to visit the Mission Hall almost every day.

The disciple in charge of registration stood up hurriedly and clasped his fists: "Disciple greets Elder Fang. Someone has already taken over the task you issued."

"only……"

His hesitant look made Fang Jianfeng anxious: "Stop hesitating and speak!"

"Reporting to the elder, the one who accepted the mission was a menial disciple."

"What did you say?!"

Hearing this, Fang Jianfeng's mouth, which had just curled up due to excitement, instantly collapsed: "Miscellaneous disciple?"

He felt very disappointed.

How can a mere errand disciple tame a beast?

The worst thing is: after a task he posts is accepted by someone, there will be a one-month "lock-in period".

During the lock-in period, only the person who accepts the task is qualified to perform the task.

During this period, no one else can take up the task again.

Fang Jianfeng's forehead veins throbbed wildly: "Isn't this delaying my important business?!"

If it were in the past, it wouldn’t matter if the menial disciples took on the task.

After a month, if the mission fails, Fang Jianfeng, as the person who issued the mission, can receive a compensation of spirit stones.

No matter how small a mosquito is, it’s still meat, so just treat it as “financial management”!

But now, the battle pet is about to devour its master!

Fang Jianfeng didn't want to delay even a day longer: "Who took the mission? I'll go find him!"

The man pointed in the direction of the door: "That boy in the green shirt."

"Huh? Is it him?"

Fang Jianfeng narrowed his eyes.

Because the other party was "arranged" by Master Liao herself to the menial disciple area.

And he also pointed out that he wanted this guy to guard the [Willow]...

Therefore, Elder Fang had a deep impression of Ding Chen.

"On the first day he arrived, I asked him to guard the Will-O-Wisp, and he was there for more than ten days in a row."

"Why is he still alive?"

Fang Jianfeng frowned and walked towards the other party with big strides.

"Ding Chen!"

"Ok?"

Ding Chen realized it belatedly and turned around with a calm expression.

This old fat man clearly knew the harm that [Willow Fire] could do to the souls of cultivators;

However, he still accepted the instructions of Master Liao without hesitation, and could not wait to send Ding Chen to guard the [Willow]...

Although he did a good thing with bad intentions, it is true that his starting point was malicious.

Naturally, Ding Chen wouldn't have any good feelings towards this guy!

Liu Hong on the side hurriedly bowed and said, "Disciple greets Elder Fang."

Fang Jianfeng didn't even look at Liu Hong. He just stretched out his hand, pointed at Ding Chen and said, "What are you doing?!"

"Did you also accept the 'gold level' mission issued by this Lord?"

"Stop wasting my time, get out of here!"

Ding Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a cold voice: "After innocently interrupting the mission, can the deposit be returned?"

"I care so much about you?"

Fang Jianfeng glared.

In his opinion, Ding Chen was just a guy who was abandoned by Master Liao and would die in a few days.

Do you want to take those five thousand spirit stones to the underworld?

At this moment, Fang Jianfeng even imagined a big drama in his mind: "This kid can come up with so many spirit stones, most likely it is related to Master Liao."

"Well, he must have done something before and received a reward from Master Liao."

"But later, he offended Master Liao, so he was assigned to the miscellaneous disciple area, responsible for guarding the [Willow Fire]."

"Master Liao wants this kid to die quietly..."

At this time, Ding Chen said calmly: "Since I have accepted this task, I will find ways to complete it."

"What you have to do is to hand over the [Wood Gu Fruit] as a mission reward to me after I successfully tame the [Five-Tailed Diamond Fox]!"

"You're pretty crazy, kid?!"

Fang Jianfeng gnashed his teeth and said, "Let me tell you, that [Five-Tailed Diamond Fox] has been very manic recently!"

"If anything unexpected happens to you while you are training the beast, I will not be held responsible!"

He had already made up his mind: just create an "accident" and kill this guy.

Anyway, death from the soul-devouring [Ghost Fire] and death from the mouth of a monster are both unforeseen "accidents".

I think Master Liao would also be satisfied with this result, right?

Ding Chen nodded nonchalantly: "Got it, lead the way."

The boy's unusual calmness was astonishing.

At a certain moment, Fang Jianfeng frowned: "Liu Hong, why are you following me?!"

Liu Hong shuddered, but still mustered up the courage to say: "In reply to the elder, I have never seen the majesty of a mysterious monster, nor have I seen the wonderful method of taming a beast."

"So, I want to go with Senior Brother Ding to broaden my horizons. I hope the elder will grant my permission!"

"Humph!"

Fang Jianfeng had a cold face, shook his sleeves, and walked forward on his own.

Liu Hong thought that the other party had agreed, and followed happily.

He didn't know that Fang Jianfeng was thinking: "Killing one is killing, killing two is also burying."

"Since you are seeking death yourself, you can't blame me..."
