Chapter 93

"That's right."

Chen Yu nodded and confirmed, "I got a 675-year-old Earth Spirit Ginseng at the Hidden Lake Auction and three Fierce Snake King's gallbladders. I trained hard in the Northern Mountain Spirit Garden for more than a month and broke through the Bronze Statue Technique in one fell swoop. If I was two or three days late, I wouldn't have come back alive. "

After saying that, he showed a look of lingering fear.

Originally.

He was a late-stage Soothing Pulse disciple, but he could come back alive. Several higher-ups even suspected that he was a mole.

Fortunately, the elders knew how powerful the 《Bronze Statue Technique》 was.

Moreover, Duan Xiaolong's words were also quite considerate of Chen Yu.

In fact.

Chen Yu only changed a little in one detail. He delayed the time of breaking through to the Bronze Bone by a month.

"Tsk tsk, it seems that you are extremely talented in the Dao of Body Cultivation."

Elder Mao was overjoyed and looked proud of Chen Yu, this nominal disciple.

Elder Nangong was also full of praise for Chen Yu's quick-wittedness.

The two elders' protection at the same time surprised some of the higher-ups of the Sect. They didn't say anything.

After all.

All of Chen Yu's actions, such as the acquisition of the Earth Spirit Ginseng and the Fierce Snake King's gallbladders, were not secrets.

"This kid actually …"

Among the higher-ups, a burly middle-aged man's heart was in turmoil.

This person was Hall Master Lin.

Because he was personally in charge of the "Northern Mountain Spirit Garden" mission, he was invited to verify it.

Seeing that Chen Yu came back alive, Hall Master Lin was quite frightened.

The Snake Tuo Ghost Shadow and the night attack of the Bone Demon Palace didn't kill this kid.

Hall Master Lin cursed in his heart. This kid really had the life of a mantis.

And at this moment.

When he saw Elder Mao and Elder Nangong protecting and praising Chen Yu at the same time, cold sweat seeped out of his back.

"It seems that this Chen Yu is not as simple as an nominal disciple of Elder Mao."

Hall Master Lin was worried.

…

After leaving the Yuntian Hall.

Chen Yu was summoned to the elder's residence by Mao Qiuyu's master.

Under Elder Mao's indication, Chen Yu demonstrated the strength of the bronze bones of the 《Bronze Statue Skill》.

Compared to other cultivation sects, body cultivators were much more difficult to determine. This was especially so when one did not display their strength.

"Not bad, not bad. It is indeed at the Copper Bone level."

Elder Mao nodded with a smile.

"Master, I remember you said that after the 'Bronze Statue Skill' reaches the Copper Bone level, I need to do one thing."

Chen Yu suddenly asked.

He vaguely remembered that when Elder Mao took him in as a disciple, this was the most important point.

Otherwise …

With Chen Yu's Half Spiritual Body and his talent in Body Cultivation, he wouldn't attract the interest of the Sect's Elders.

"That's right. After a few days of preparation, I will bring you out."

Elder Mao did not explain the reason.

Chen Yu didn't ask any further.

Suddenly.

He recalled the previous mission, the unusual transfer, and the assassination of the Snake Tuo Ghost Shadow. He hurriedly explained the matter to Elder Mao.

"It seems that you have incurred the hatred of someone in the Sect."

Elder Mao's face turned cold when he heard that.

His expression changed and he pondered for a while, as if he had thought of something.

Chen Yu stood at the side and didn't say anything.

Elder Mao was a senior elder in the Yunyue Gate. He was shrewd and knew the structure of the Sect better.

He only needed to investigate a little to determine the truth.

Perhaps, Elder Mao already had an answer.

"How about this, after your mission, the Sect will give you half a month to rest. For the next mission, you can apply for a mission you like in advance. "

Elder Mao smiled again.

Apply for a mission I like? Chen Yu was pleasantly surprised.

At this stage.

With the invasion of the Bone Demon Palace, the three sects were in danger. Especially now that the Yunyue Gate had suffered a heavy blow.

Now, the danger and compulsion of the mission were getting higher.

It was not easy for an ordinary disciple to choose a mission he liked.

However.

With Elder Mao's promise, Chen Yu was relieved.

…

Inner sect encampment.

After resting for a day, Chen Yu headed to Zongwu Hall.

"Oh, it's Chen …"

As soon as he arrived at Zongwu Hall, a black-robed warden welcomed Chen Yu politely into an elegant room.

Chen Yu felt that something was amiss.

Normally, these attendants were cold and aloof, acting high and mighty.

"Hall Master Lin said that we will try our best to satisfy any request you have."

The black-robed warden smiled.

Soon, two pretty female attendants served tea and snacks to Chen Yu. They even went forward to massage his back and shoulders.

Chen Yu couldn't take it anymore and waved them away.

"Yes, I'm here to apply for a mission."

Chen Yu was full of confidence when he thought of Elder Mao's promise.

As soon as he said that.

A hearty laugh was heard. "Oh, it's Disciple-Nephew Chen. It's easy for you to apply for a mission. Elder Mao has told me about it. "

This voice was a little familiar.

"Hall Master Lin?"

Chen Yu quickly got up and saw a tall and burly middle-aged man in leather armor.

Wasn't this Hall Master Lin?

Hall Master Lin, the hall master of Zongwu Hall. He was one of the higher-ups of the Sect.

Seeing Hall Master Lin enter, the other warden bowed and left.

"Disciple-Nephew, you don't have to be so reserved. Just treat this as your home."

Hall Master Lin smiled and walked over.

This was very different from his usual majestic and tall demeanor.

Chen Yu even felt that Hall Master Lin's smile seemed to be trying to rope him in.

When did it happen.

Did the high and mighty hall master of the Sect need to be so polite to a disciple like him?

"This booklet has the recent month's mission arrangements. You can choose whichever one you like."

Hall Master Lin sat at the side.

Chen Yu opened the booklet. There were too many complicated missions of various sizes.

Yunyue Sect had a total of two to three thousand disciples and members.

This was only the official members.

There were also some older members in the Body Forging Realm and Meridian Illuminating Realm.

"I want to go home. Are there any missions near Xiangyang City?"

Chen Yu didn't stand on ceremony.

By now, how could he not see that Elder Mao's power was at work?

"Xiangyang City?"

Hall Master Lin thought for a moment and replied, "A small county city is too small. There are more than a hundred such counties in the Chu Country. I do have a mundane 'request for help' in the 'Six Counties of Beiyun' … "

Request for help in the five counties of Beiyun?

While Chen Yu was puzzled, Hall Master Lin took out a map.

He looked at it carefully.

Xiangyang City and Fengyang City, where Tong Yuling was, were all part of the 'Six Counties of Beiyun'.

There were also the names of some forces on it.

Chen Yu vaguely saw the words' Chu Family 'and' Yan Family Fort '.

As for the Chen family and Tong family, the words were even smaller.

"The two biggest forces in the Six Counties of Beiyun are the Chu Family and Yan Family Fort. Recently, a small number of Bone Demon Palace disciples have infiltrated these two places, but it's not serious. We've already sent enforcers … "

Hall Master Lin summarized the situation.

"What's the situation with the request for help?"

Chen Yu asked directly.

"The request for help actually comes from the Yan Family Fort. This fort is a loyal force that relies on the Yunyue Gate. It's said that the Lord of the Yan Family Fort has recently died. Powerful clans have risen nearby, bandits have run amok, and uncles are fighting for power within the fort. It can be said that there are external and internal troubles. The daughter of the Lord of the Yan Family has applied to the Sect to send people to stabilize the situation. "

After Hall Master Lin finished speaking, he revealed an expression that said 'you know what I mean'.

Oh?

Chen Yu understood.

This sort of mundane grudge mission was firstly safer, and secondly, profitable.

Why was it profitable?

For this request for help, the envoy sent by the Sect to uphold justice was like a judge.

The Sect's envoy meant what he said.

"When will this mission take place?" Chen Yu asked.

"Set off in half a month. The duration will be one month. Because we still need to stabilize the order in the region, we can delay it to two months."

"Alright! I want this mission. "

Chen Yu nodded.

This mission was like a leisurely life in the secular world. It could be said to be a tyrant.

Now.

The pressure at the front line of the Yunyue Gate was great. Whether it was the frontline battles, reinforcements, or guarding the rear, there were considerable risks.

Every disciple would be assigned a mission.

Since he could not avoid it, he might as well choose one himself!

Chen Yu enjoyed his privileges and chose a comfortable mission close to his family. Why not?

Everything was for the sake of surviving the disaster of the Bone Demon Palace's invasion.

"I need time to grow," Chen Yu murmured.

After choosing the mission, Chen Yu prepared to leave.

"Wait a moment, Martial Nephew."

Hall Master Lin suddenly stopped Chen Yu and handed him a long wooden box.

Huh?

Chen Yu looked puzzled.

He took the wooden box and looked inside. There were three fierce snake poisons and a hundred-year-old Earth Spirit Ginseng.

"This …"

Chen Yu was a little surprised.

He was a Sect Hall Master. Why did he need to please him?

"This … Previously, a junior of mine was bewitched by Wang Lingyun and almost attacked you. This is a token of my sincerity to help you calm down. "

Hall Master Lin lowered his voice.

Chen Yu suddenly understood something. His expression darkened.

"What happened before was a misunderstanding. Don't take it to heart, Martial Nephew. That junior of mine promises not to attack you again. "

Hall Master Lin smiled apologetically.

After that.

Hall Master Lin gritted his teeth and took out a porcelain bottle. "There are two superior-grade Body Accumulation Pills in this bottle. They can help Martial Nephew Chen advance to the Viscera Refinement realm faster."

"superior-grade Body Accumulation Pills?"

Chen Yu's expression softened.

Back then, he had used the middle-grade Body Accumulation Pills to speed up his advancement to the Meridian Opening Middle Stage.

As for the superior-grade Body Accumulation Pills, it was even rarer. Taking it in the Viscera Refinement realm could speed up one's cultivation.

"I just want to ask one question. Where did Wang Lingyun go?"

Chen Yu took the porcelain bottle and asked again.

"Wang Lingyun, this … He probably won't appear again."

Hall Master Lin said vaguely.

"Alright, I won't pursue what happened in the past for now."

Chen Yu took the gifts from Hall Master Lin and strode out of the Zongwu Hall.

Since the other party was willing to take the initiative to ask for peace and even offered the hundred-year-old Earth Spirit Ginseng and Body Accumulation Pills, Chen Yu might as well stop while he was ahead.

After all, he was just a disciple with a weak foundation.

Hall Master Lin and the royal family were rooted in the Sect and Chu Country. They must have a strong foundation.

Not long after Chen Yu left, a man dressed in luxurious clothes appeared in the room.

It was the Seventh Princes, Huang Fulin.

"Uncle Lin, with my royal family and your influence, do you really need to compromise with Chen Yu?"

Huang Fulin gritted his teeth and said unwillingly.

"Right now, there are two senior elders standing behind Chen Yu. Elder Mao's seniority is higher than the Sect Master. Elder Nangong's Nangong clan is one of the three super clans in Chu Country. "

"If it wasn't for the fact that our influence is strong enough and the Yunyue Gate is facing internal and external troubles, I'm afraid that Elder Mao wouldn't have come to have a 'heart-to-heart' with me, but to eradicate us in one fell swoop!"

Hall Master Lin sighed with a trace of fear on his face.
