Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After gathering her belongings and carrying the Dragonman in her arms, Gu Chaoyan made her way towards the Bounty Pavilion.
Curiosity filled her thoughts as she wondered if any new missions had been posted. However, if there were no fresh options, she had almost made up her mind about which mission to undertake.
In high spirits, Gu Chaoyan set off on her journey.
As she departed, Shen Heyu arrived at her room. He had been visiting Gu Chaoyan frequently, hoping to find an appropriate moment to request becoming her disciple. Aware that she was in the midst of cultivation, he refrained from disturbing her and instead waited outside or returned the following day.
The time had come for her junior sister to make a breakthrough.
Shen Heyu decided to be patient and wait for a while.
As he approached her room, he noticed that his junior sister appeared to have awakened. However, upon entering, he found the room empty.
Could she have gone to accept a mission?
Shen Heyu felt a tinge of disappointment, but he understood that his junior sister needed to take on missions to progress. Hence, he resolved to wait for the next opportunity.
He had numerous questions he wanted to discuss with his junior sister.
After pondering for a while, Shen Heyu decided to return to the Weapon Refining Sect.
Meanwhile, Gu Chaoyan was making her way to the Bounty Pavilion, feeling upbeat and cheerful. However, when she arrived, she noticed that people were looking at her with newfound admiration.
Her recent feat of single-handedly slaying the mutated beast had caught the attention of many in the Bounty Pavilion. It was an achievement that seemed unattainable for most individuals present.
The onlookers recognized the potential benefits of teaming up with Gu Chaoyan on a mission, as it could potentially allow them to share in the glory of her successes.
They turned to Gu Chaoyan as they thought about this.
Gu Chaoyan ignored all of these. She was reading the missions seriously.
“Junior Sister!” Di Hongyun looked very happy seeing Gu Chaoyan.
Gu Chaoyan brought back to herself.
Then she saw Di Hongyun.
Di Hongyun’s demeanor towards Gu Chaoyan had changed significantly. He now regarded her as one of his own and no longer harbored any previous dislike.
As Gu Chaoyan approached Di Hongyun, he spoke warmly, “Junior Sister, it’s quite a coincidence to meet you here. Zhengyang, Xinde, and I are about to embark on a mission. Would you like to join us? We can work together and…
However, Di Hongyun suddenly lowered his voice. “Our mission is to find the
Green Sun Gra.s.s, the most essential herb for the Medicine Sect’s highest-level pills. Xinde, Zhengyang, and I are all from the same sect, so we are collaborating to locate the Green Sun Gra.s.s. The sect is unaware of its exact quant.i.ty, but if we do find it, we will have 0…”. He shot a meaningful glance at Gu Chaoyan, indicating that she should sense the implication herself.
Gu Chaoyan understood what was going on.
They were going to eat some Green Sun Gra.s.s.
Di Hongyun’s willingness to share such information indicated that he now regarded Gu Chaoyan as one of his own, making her feel appreciated and included.
The mission he proposed seemed like a perfect fit for her needs. The herbs in her possession were becoming less useful, and if she could acquire better ones, she would have the resources to craft her own potent pills.
“Okay,” Gu Chaoyan replied decisively. With her mind made up, she saw no reason to hesitate. Completing the mission as swiftly as possible was her top priority.
“I knew you would agree! Xinde and I were hoping to have you with us, so we waited for an extra day. We should have departed yesterday, but we were concerned that you might miss the opportunity. What a shame!” Di Hongyun boasted proudly.
Gu Chaoyan nodded..
