"Wait a minute Jian Shen, there"s something I want to talk to you about."As soon as Mei Xing touched him, Jian Shen"s hands darted towards the hilts of the both swords on his waist and kept them flying up.
"Relax, I"ve got this."
Telling the swords to calm down, Jian Shen saw that Mei Xing hadn"t noticed his arms moving and was looking at his face instead.
"What is it, Elder?"
"You can just call me Mei Xing."
Nodding his head Jian Shen didn"t say anything, as the long black haired woman continued speaking.
"I"m sure you don"t know this, but the all disciples inside the Sect need to finish the appropriate number of missions if they want to stay inside the Sect, and continue using the resources provided by it."
"For an Outer Disciple, they need to complete 12 missions per year."
"6 missions are needed to be finished for an Inner Disciple."

"And for you who is enjoying the status of a Core Disciple, you only need to finish a single mission per year."
Seeing the expression on Jian Shen"s face, Mei Xing said, "Don"t look at me like that, we"re not showing any sort of partiality towards the Core Disciples."
"Let me tell you, the missions are not even given to the disciples, and they themselves can choose which missions they want to complete."
"Also, depending on your status, you can only select particular missions. This way no Core Disciple can pick the easiest mission and come back after picking a few herbs around the mountain."
"Not that any Core Disciple would ever choose such an easy mission which gives so few points."
"However, due to this, the mission you will need to complete will be very hard, since your official status is that of a Core Disciple."
Not saying anything, Jian Shen thought for a while and finally asked, "How tough are the missions?"
"Hmmm... For the missions which are allowed to be chosen by the Core Disciples, they are mostly to exterminate Mid Level Ancient Grade Beasts, provide security from Sky Realm threats, and so on."
"Ah, yes! There are also the occasional satisfy me kind of requests, which are sent by h.o.r.n.y female experts. But, most of them are taken away as soon as they appear."
Nodding his head a few times, Jian Shen couldn"t help but show a disdainful look at how easy the missions were.
And not just to the current him, but to the him who hadn"t entered the Earth Realm as well.
Seeing this look, while Mei Xing didn"t say anything, she felt that this was the sort of look Jian Shen should always have on his face.
"Can I choose a mission now?"
Blinking in surprise, Mei Xing said, "You can. But after choosing a mission, you have to set out within 15 days. If you don"t, you"ll have to pay a fine for having taken a mission out and not completing it."
"That"s fine, I plan on setting off in a few days."
"You... I didn"t ask you to stay so that you would choose a mission, Jian Shen."
It was now Jian Shen"s turn to be surprised, since he hadn"t expected such a response.
"I only wanted to inform you, so that you would be prepared when the time comes for you to choose a mission."
"Oh? That"s fine. I"ll just finish a mission now."
"You.... "
Stopping herself from speaking, since Jian Shen was refusing to care for her kind intentions, Mei Xing said, "Fine. Come with me, I haven"t yet posted the newly obtained missions yet. See if you can find something in them."
...
Entering Mei Xing"s house, Jian Shen directly saw three huge stacks of papers lined up one beside the other.
"This one right here, it is for the Core Disciples to choose from. Make sure to think and pick one which lets you use your strengths to the maximum."
"Unfortunately, there aren"t any satisfy me missions this time. So I suggest you pick the gr.. "
"I"ll take this."
Interrupting Mei Xing who looked like she was speaking to herself, Jian Shen handed her the mission he had chosen.
Or in other words, the first mission he had seen.
"... Are you sure you want to take this?"
"Yup."
The intention behind Jian Shen"s choice was that he didn"t want to look through a huge pile of notices, when the first mission he found was something he could complete.
Of course, if it was something too hard like fighting a Desolate Beast, Jian Shen would"ve picked another one.
But, since the mission he found on top was something he could easily complete, Jian Shen didn"t bother to try and look for anything else.
After all, it wasn"t as if he was doing the missions for points. He just didn"t want to be interrupted again for a whole year, and cultivate in peace.
"Fine. But make sure you don"t regret it."
Looking at the mission that Jian Shen had chosen, Mei Xing didn"t say anything despite knowing that this was the hardest mission in the whole pile.
This was because she had already made up her mind to follow Jian Shen and keep him safe from the shadows. And drag him back, when he realizes how hard the mission was for someone of his strength.
Nodding his head, Jian Shen was about to turn around and leave, when Mei Xing once again stopped him.
This time with a full on hug, where she pressed her b.r.e.a.s.t.s against his chest.
"How about we have s.e.x as a send off gift for you?"
Frowning a little, Jian Shen gently pushed Mei Xing away and said, "No thanks."
Snorting coldly, Mei Xing truly felt the desire to push Jian Shen on the floor and ra pe him, but she held back.
"Is it due to the fact that I made you wait so long? Humph! I hadn"t guessed you to be the petty type."
It wasn"t that Jian Shen hated Mei Xing, or any such thing. In fact, she was quite a beautiful woman, who Jian Shen felt he"d enjoy having s.e.x with.
However, every time he met her, Jian Shen felt like he was meeting Fang Rong, which involuntarily made him want to take a step away.
