Chapter 936 Mission from the Master G.o.d Palace
Suddenly, a sharp light burst from Qin Wushuang"s eyes. Like an invisible rope, it trapped Little Jiang tightly.
Fixed by this piercing look, instantly Little Jiang felt uncomfortable. As if hundreds of millions of golden needles punctured his skin, it seemed as though they could penetrate his body and enter deep into his divine soul.
As Little Jiang barely resisted this look, instantly sweat soaked his spine and he was endlessly nervous.
After a while, a slight smile spilled out from the corner of Qin Wushuang"s mouth. He withdrew that piercing look and looked at the cup in his hand. He snapped his finger and said, "Waiter, another pot of alcohol."
"Alright!" That waiter already ran over with a long drop in his tone.
Little Jiang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with an apologetic smile, "Sir, such a powerful aura, it seems I came to the right person."
"Tell me, what is your mission?"
Little Jiang looked around and said with a low voice, "Sir, could we talk in private?"
When Qin Wushuang saw his mysterious actions, he did not doubt him. A moment ago, he used his divine soul to inspect Little Jiang"s divine soul directly. Although he could not pry through his thoughts, in that moment, Little Jiang did not evade his look. Although he was scared, he was open. It proved that at least, this guy was not playing a trick.
Both left the Freelance Martial Artist Union and Qin Wushuang said with an indifferent tone, "I don"t have much time, tell me."
When Little Jiang saw the high alt.i.tude of this place and high vantage point, he would not be afraid of an ear on the wall. With a low voice, he said, "Sir, a friend pa.s.sed me this information from the inside. Honestly, it"s a mission across the star region, we have to head to another plane. However, it"s definitely not about killing people."
"Just exactly what is the mission?" Qin Wushuang went straight to the topic since he did not have time for beating around the bush.
"This mission is issued by the Master G.o.d Palace. No one from the Freelance Martial Artist Union knows about it. In fact, for this mission, the palace didn"t even announce it."
"It"s not yet distributed?" Qin Wushuang"s expression sank.
"Sir, don"t misunderstand me. Although it has yet to be announced, my friend is an external butler to the Master G.o.d Palace. He took me aside in secret and asked me to organize a group of people. Soon there will be a big mission. It"s well worth doing. Perhaps those major power heads will fight over it. We will be thanking the G.o.ds if freelance martial artists can organize a team. Even if we prepare beforehand, only we will be qualified to compete for it. Otherwise, we might not even get this mission."
"In this case, the mission you said might happen, but isn"t something for sure, right?" Qin Wushuang said with a cold laugh.
"Sir, it is this way, but how many missions are issued by the Master G.o.d Palace a year? Especially for a starry region leveled mission, as long as it"s distributed, it will be major. Even if those giants want to partic.i.p.ate, they might not have sufficient manpower. It"s always better to have as many elite warriors as possible. For someone as powerful as you, I think that even those powerhouses won"t necessarily push you away."
This was not flattery, but because Little Jiang was truly astonished by Qin Wushuang"s power.
Of course, Qin Wushuang did not mind. At his current stage, naturally he would not care too much about what an ordinary martial artist says.
"Just what mission is it, that sounds so magical from your mouth?"
This was the core question that Qin Wushuang wanted to know more about.
Little Jiang laughed. "Sir, I will not keep it from you, this mission comes with high risk. This is also why I said perhaps major powerhouses will partic.i.p.ate, but also the reason they might not. It"s a question whether or not the major powerhouses want to take the risk. This mission is not to kill people, but to dig up mines. Of course, miners will dig up the mines. For us higher level martial artists, we are only in charge of security. When there are no enemies, we will monitor the miners, and prevent them from stealing the Great Luo Crystal Stones. When enemies come at us, we will fight them and bring the Great Luo Crystal Stones back to the Meteorological Land."
Qin Wushuang understood it to some extent.
This was what the mission was about. With this foundation, Qin Wushuang felt much more at ease. Be security while they dig up mines? It"s not a complicated job…
However, where is this mine located? Since the Master G.o.d Palace was hiring security guards on such a broad level, certainly it"s no ordinary place.
Little Jiang scratched his head. "Sir, I would not know exactly where the place is. I only know this mission is big and has high rewards. The people that come back in the end could get some commission according to the number of crystal stones. I heard the Master G.o.d Palace plans to reward the security guards twenty percent. This reward is extremely rich. Usually for a mission like this, it"d be good to get five percent, yet alone twenty percent."
With high attraction, it"s accompanied with high risk. This was always the principle.
Qin Wushuang never counted this Master G.o.d Palace to be generous.
"How many people do you still need?"
That Little Jiang scratched his head. "My friend asked me to form a team of seven people, usually seven people turns into a team. Honestly, besides me, I haven"t found any others yet. It"s either that I don"t trust them, or they are not qualified."
This Little Jiang was extremely blunt. Because of this, Qin Wushuang had a different impression of him.
"Seven people team and you haven"t recruited a single one, are you playing me?" Qin Wushuang pretended to be angry.
Little Jiang immediately waved his hand. "Sir, don"t say it this way. I only received the news half a month ago. Honestly, I am far from those elite warriors who can flick their arms and gather people. Even if other people wanted to, they would not trust me when they saw how ordinary I am. Therefore, until I am sure of someone, I will not ask them to prevent getting humiliated, leak the news, and provoke the Master G.o.d Palace."
Qin Wushuang nodded. "That makes sense. When you find six people, it won"t be too late to come to me."
That Little Jiang immediately said, "Sir, hear me out."
"Hm?"
"Sir, without you, it"ll almost be impossible for me to find seven powerful and reliable teammates. I am not trying to be arrogant, I am well aware of my level and how much summoning power I have. But you are different. If you can distribute a mission in your name to gather people, not to mention five, you can find fifty easily."
Qin Wushuang could not refrain from a smile. "In the end, you are scheming and using me. You are trying to catch a wolf empty-handed."
"Ha ha, sir, don"t say it this way. I am not trying to hooch off you, a great willow tree like you can attract the golden phoenix."
When Little Jiang saw that Qin Wushuang did not get mad, inwardly he felt much more at ease. He secretly felt lucky to find such a person.
Although this person showed astonis.h.i.+ng momentum, it seemed he was not an unreasonable elite warrior. Although he must serve someone like this carefully, he would be worried of provoking him carelessly.
"Little Jiang, even if you haven"t got anyone, you must have some people in mind. Or else, it would be too reckless."
Little Jiang smiled apologetically. "That"s true, I do have some people in mind. But speaking the truth, I"ve only heard of these people and never actually visited them. Even if I go up to them, they might not recognize me. Therefore, I must ask you to step out. These few people I know are rather famous amongst the freelance martial artist world. Although they each have their own peculiar personality, in general, all of them are trustworthy and will not change their minds."
Qin Wushuang agreed profoundly. "That"s right, it"s extremely important to be trustworthy when forming a team. If there"s an unreliable little figure, the team will surely fall into great chaos."
"Ha ha, that"s right, Sir. This is a list I"ve made. How about, let"s take it two ways. While we distribute the mission through the union under your name, on the other hand we can visit these elite warriors and see how many we can pull to our side. In general, this must be a seven people team, not one more, and not one less."
Qin Wushuang thought for a moment. If it were just for the Great Luo Crystal Stones, it would definitely not entice him.
However, considering the problem with training and being a freelance martial artist, Qin Wushuang wondered if he could use this to his advantage. If he could use this chance to pull together some elite warriors from the freelance martial artist world, it would be a good decision.
Currently, he just lacked personnel.
If he could build his own team and make his way in the Meteorological Land, he could cultivate his own group of elite warriors as his own team. By the time he took them back to the Tian Xuan Land, it would be a group of astonis.h.i.+ng combat power. Especially for the Nine Palace Return One Sword Formation divine skill, more manpower would demonstrate its superiority.
Thinking here, Qin Wushuang nodded. "Little Jiang, we will do it as you say. We will give it a try whether it succeeds or not."
When Little Jiang heard his words, he brimmed with joy as light shone in his eyes. "Sir, in this case, you agree? Excellent, ha ha, great. With someone as powerful as you stepping out, certainly the freelance martial artists will not get crowded out. Anyways, it"s a team for the freelance martial artist."
Qin Wushuang issued a mission through the Freelance Martial Artist Union. Since it was distributed under the name of a Heavenly Supreme Dao elite warrior, it posed great attraction.
At the same time, under the guidance of Little Jiang, Qin Wushuang traveled everywhere and visited many of the elite warriors across the freelance martial artist"s world in three months.
Indeed, these freelance elite warriors were unyielding characters. Usually, freelance martial artists enjoyed to act alone and hold high vigilance. Or else, they would have chosen to rely on a sect.
When they become freelance martial artists, it proves that these people only trust themselves and it"s hard for them to trust others. Of course, there were many reasons to not rely on a sect, not just because of their personality.
On this day, Qin Wushuang came to a place called the Dried Pine Tree Mountain Ridge. A powerful freelance martial artist resided here and it was rumored he was approaching the Peak of the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage. It was someone Little Jiang wanted to scout out.
This person was called, Tie Hong. People nicknamed him, Exploding Tiger Tie Hong…
Just when they stepped into the external territory of this Dried Pine Tree Mountain Ridge, Qin Wushuang frowned slightly. Little Jiang was still unaware as he asked curiously, "Sir, why are you stopping?"
Qin Wushuang frowned. "We"ve come at a bad time. Little Jiang, they already know about you."
With Little Jiang"s power, he would surely be discovered when he approached their territory.
Just when Little Jiang was feeling confused, a feminine voice emerged. As if coming from the inferno, the voice let out an eerie laugh. "Exploding Tiger, you should have asked someone more eloquent if you wanted help, are you not humiliating yourself by asking a useless sc.u.mbag at First or Second Calamity of the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage?"
When Little Jiang heard these words, while he revealed some embarra.s.sment, he also revealed a look of astonishment.
