C34 Something Was Wrong with the Mission
C34 Something Was Wrong with the Mission
The tall and thin man looked at Su Jin in disbelief. He saw a disdainful smile on Su Jin's face.
The tall and thin man was instantly enraged. A lowly servant disciple actually dared to look down on him!
His true qi surged out wildly, and he used all his strength to roll the short knife. However, the short knife did not budge between Su Jin's fingers. The tall and thin man could not help but roar in anger, "Let go!"
"Alright."
Su Jin's reply caused the eyes of the tall and thin man to light up. In an instant, he smiled hideously in his heart. As long as this kid let go of his hand, he would cut off his neck with his knife.
But in the next moment, the tall and thin man's eyes blurred. Immediately, he felt a sharp pain coming from his stomach.
Su Jin's palm struck the tall and thin man's abdomen, causing him to be unable to endure the pain. He saw that his stomach was covered with a layer of ice and intense pain. The cold and unbearable man squatted down, and the short knife in his hand fell to the ground.
Then, Su Jin kicked the tall and thin man to the ground.
"Who the hell are you? You're not a janitor disciple. How can a janitor disciple have such powerful strength?!"
The tall and thin man screamed as he looked at Su Jin who was walking towards him. Finally, he was frightened. He realized that the person in front of him was not someone he could fight against.
"Who I am has nothing to do with you!"
Su Jin coldly harrumphed, "Speak, when will your plan be launched? Who else is a spy within the Martial Palace?"
Su Jin had already guessed that there must be more than one Five Spirit Cauldron like this in the Jade River Town, and it was already too late for him to find the other Five Spirit Cauldrons. The only thing he needed to do now was to ask for more information.
"You will never be able to get a single word out of my mouth."
The tall and thin man glared at Su Jin with hatred. His body suddenly trembled, and his eyes lost their color. A trace of dark green blood trickled down the corner of his mouth.
He took the poison and committed suicide.
"F * ck, I forgot that there was such a trick!"
Su Jin looked at the tall and thin man in annoyance and frowned. He thought that he should tell Lau Lee about this matter as soon as possible.
He searched the tall and thin man's body and found a spatial brocade pouch on his body. There was a large amount of banknotes and some pills in the brocade pouch, but there was no information about the Five Spirit Sect.
The secrecy was pretty good.
Su Jin had no choice but to let the system retrieve all the pills and the short knife.
More than 500 points were exchanged for five days of life.
"Oh right, the Five Spirit Cauldron is also recycled."
Su Jin's eyes lit up. The Five Spirit Cauldron was a treasure that was equivalent to a Supreme Grade Weapon.
"Retrieving successful. Obtained 3,500 points."
Su Jin was overjoyed. The reward given by a Supreme Grade Weapon was indeed extraordinary.
Instantly, Su Jin had the urge to not look for the treasure chest, but the spy from the Five Spirit Sect.
It was just a thought. After all, Su Jin had no idea who the Five Spirit Sect's spy was.
"Let's hurry up and get the third treasure chest. Something might happen in Jade River Town at any time. Only when I'm strong enough to fight a Martial Mentor Stage warrior will I have the ability to protect myself."
Su Jin knew that he was in a very dangerous situation. Not only him, even the tens of thousands of civilians in the Green Spirit Martial Mansion and Jade River Town were in danger.
If he wasn't careful, he might be completely wiped out. Therefore, he had to improve his ability to protect himself as much as possible.
These 3,500 points were not directly exchanged for lifespan, but were left with him.
According to the information given by the system, once the treasure chest was upgraded, the system would have some additional functions. The usage of points was not only to exchange for lifespan.
Before that, he was going to find Lau Lee first and tell her about the Five Spirit Sect's spies.
Lau Lee seemed to have gone to the Manor Lord's place - -
"All disciples who have received the order, hurry to the west gate of the town!"
Right at this moment, Su Jin received a message from the sect from his identity token.
"Are you for real? Why did you give the order at this time?"
Su Jin cursed in his heart. The sect's message was urgent, but it could not be delayed. He could only let go of his plan to look for Lau Lee.
Fortunately, the treasure chest was not far from the entrance to the west of the town. It was better to get the third treasure chest first.
Su Jin thought for a while and immediately rushed to the west gate of the town.
When he arrived, Su Jin was surprised to see that Senior Brother Hu and the others were also there.
When Senior Brother Hu and the others saw Su Jin, they all walked over in surprise.
"I have offended you before. Please forgive me, brother Su Jin."
Senior Brother Hu showed a guilty expression when he saw ___. He bowed and apologized.
"It's just a small misunderstanding. Senior Brother Hu, please stop saying this."
Su Jin smiled. He was the kind of person who would respect him by one foot and ten feet. Since Senior Brother Hu had taken the initiative to apologize, he naturally wouldn't mind the previous conflict.
When he thought about the matter of Five Spirit Sect, Su Jin asked, "Senior Brother Hu, have you reported the matter of the injured stone powder?"
Senior Brother Hu nodded. "We met Senior Brother Qin Zong on the way and reported this matter to him. Senior Brother Qin attached great importance to this matter and said that he would report it to the elders for us. After that, we received a mission."
"Senior Brother Qin has a high status in the sect. If he reported it to the elders, the sect would definitely treat it seriously."
The other disciples also smiled and said. Their expressions were filled with respect towards Senior Brother Qin.
Senior Brother Hu didn't forget to say, "Brother Su Jin, we have already told Senior Brother Qin about your role in this matter. He expressed his appreciation towards you and said that he wanted to ask the elders for a reward for you."
Su Jin raised his brows. He could sense that something wasn't right.
Senior Brother Hu had just reported this matter to Senior Brother Qin. All of them had received a mission after learning the truth of the matter. Was there such a coincidence?
"Everyone is here, right?"
Right at this moment, a cold voice came from the front.
Five inner circle disciples arrived in front of them. Su Jin's eyes lit up when he saw these five people.
These five people were the inner sect disciples who scolded Su Jin when they met Lau Lee. They were obviously people who had a good relationship with Qin Zongyi.
Similarly, when the five inner sect disciples saw Su Jin, their eyes emitted a cold light.
"Seniors, what kind of mission does the sect want us to carry out this time?"
Senior Brother Hu asked the disciple on the left with a gloomy expression.
Senior Chen said faintly, "After hearing your report, the higher-ups took it very seriously. They asked us to bring you to the upper reaches of the Jade River to check the source of the river."
"So that's how it is." Senior Brother Hu revealed a smile. It was good that the sect took it seriously.
"Let's go now."
Senior Chen's gaze swept across the crowd. When he saw Su Jin, he paused for a moment, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Su Jin's face was expressionless and he did not say anything.
Everyone left Jade River Town and followed the Jade River all the way to the upper reaches. Not long after that, Jade River Town disappeared.
"Su Jin, you didn't have any conflicts with these senior brothers, did you?"
Senior Brother Hu walked beside Su Jin and asked in a low voice. "Why do I feel that these senior brothers are dissatisfied with you?"
Su Jin immediately understood that Senior Brother Hu was reminding him. He smiled and said, "It's nothing. You guys have to be careful later."
Senior Brother Hu looked at Su Jin in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
"Alright, let's do it here."
After walking for a while, they arrived at a desolate area with no one around. When the river was flowing rapidly, Senior Brother Chen stopped and turned around. He gave Su Jin, Senior Brother Hu, and the others a cold smile.
At this moment, the other four inner court disciples had split up in different directions, and were looking at the disciples with hostile expressions, as if they were looking at a group of dead people.
