After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Chapter 360 The Bracelet Grandpa

Because Su Rong happened to be in the Mission Hall when the mission was first released that day.

She has taken on many tasks since joining the group, and she has completed them all seriously and perfectly without any bad records. Therefore, the manager of the task hall gave the task to her as soon as he saw her, and others did not even have a chance to see it.

"Su Rong, you are a down-to-earth person who never tries to take shortcuts. This new task is very good. Consider yourself lucky, so I'll give it to you."

She was stunned when she saw the task details. "All you have to do is deliver beast meat every day to get ten crystals? Is this really not a mistake?"

Ten crystals a day, that's three hundred crystals a month, enough to buy a bottle of pills and several talismans!

Three hundred crystals would normally be a reward obtained by going out to gather spiritual herbs several times or hunting several demonic beasts, both of which are dangerous.

For tasks that are not dangerous and only require running errands, you might be lucky to earn thirty crystals a month.

Besides, it's such a short delivery service—buying from the market and delivering it to the foot of the mountain behind the hill—there are plenty of people willing to fight over twenty crystals!
"Yes, this is a task assigned by a big shot, which is why I said you're lucky," the manager said with a smile. "Do a good job, and don't make any mistakes that would embarrass me."

"understand!"

Su Rong already felt that this mission was unusual, because the back mountain was a forbidden area. Who would they send something to?
Now, hearing the manager mention "a big shot," he became even more cautious and vigilant, and thus treated this task with great care.

Even though she didn't see any difference between meat that had been stored in her storage bag for two days and freshly hunted meat, and even though the back mountain was deserted every day when she went there, she still didn't do or look around much. She simply completed her tasks honestly and left as soon as she was done.

Over the course of several days, she stayed at the foot of the mountain the entire time, leaving the monster behind and never taking a single step further uphill.

After a few days, some people heard about her taking on a mission in the back mountain. After all, she needed to go to the back mountain every day, and over time, she would inevitably be noticed by those with ulterior motives.

They were all asking her about the situation on the back mountain, and some were even asking who had issued the mission, but Su Rong brushed them off without revealing any useful information.

For example, the "big shot" that the manager had mentioned to her.

Although several days have passed and she has neither met any important figures nor received any praise for her honesty and integrity, she remains steadfast and shows no intention of relaxing her efforts.

As she turned around, Su Rong suddenly saw a little girl being held in the arms of a female cultivator.

That little girl was truly the most beautiful girl Su Rong had ever seen! She was fair and lovely, with rosy cheeks, bright and sparkling eyes, and her exposed skin was as smooth as a pearl.

She was even more beautiful than her stepmother's younger sister, who was praised by everyone.

While I was still wondering who this little girl was, a voice suddenly rang out in my mind—

"Hey, that little kid..."

Su Rong was taken aback, and silently asked herself, "What's wrong with her?"

"I can't quite see through her cultivation level."

The aged voice carried a hint of bewilderment and confusion.

The old man's surname was Hai, and Su Rong always called him Old Hai.

Ever since I bought this bracelet at a low price from a street stall and performed the blood test to confirm our kinship, Hai Lao has appeared.

He was a lingering wisp of his soul, possessing the bracelet and becoming its spirit. At the time, Elder Hai felt a connection with Su Rong, which was why he deliberately made the bracelet flash.

Because this bracelet was among a pile of cheap magical artifacts displayed on the ground, its movement could only be seen from a specific angle, and the stall owner himself was completely unaware of it.

Upon seeing it, Su Rong calmly paid for it and bought it. In fact, she had originally planned to use the only money she had to buy a bottle of pills.

Since acknowledging her as his master, Elder Hai has been guiding Su Rong, becoming her teacher, teaching her cultivation, helping her find treasures at low prices, and even teaching her weapon crafting.

He even taught her a lot about recognizing people.

Su Rong was just an orphan from a small family. After her parents died, she lived like a dependent, doing menial work and endless chores. She had never been treated with such care before.

So even though Hai Lao was just a spirit, she still treated him with utmost respect, showing him even more affection and care as if he were a family member.

In Su Rong's view, Elder Hai was omnipotent. Although he never mentioned his cultivation level before his death, it was probably at the pinnacle of the cultivation world, and his insight was unmatched.

And now she has a cultivation level that he can't see through, and she's still a little girl?
"How could this be... Is it because she's too young and can't cultivate yet?"

The two could communicate telepathically; only she could hear Hai Lao's voice, and no one else could perceive her responses.

So, on the surface, Su Rong had already headed towards his cave dwelling, but in reality, he was still communicating with Elder Hai.

"No, if she couldn't cultivate, she would just look like an ordinary mortal, not as unfathomable as she is now, as if shrouded in a layer of fog."

"Huh? This is the first time I've heard you mention something like this." Su Rong was also surprised.

Let alone a little child, even cultivators at the Void Returning or Dao Integration stages, the great powers in everyone's eyes, cannot hide their cultivation level in front of Elder Hai. He can see through them with just one glance.

So what's going on now?

“Yes, normally only those with top-level cultivation can be beyond my understanding.” Old Hai laughed as he spoke. “What am I thinking? She’s just a child. She’s probably wearing some kind of anti-peeping magic item to prevent this.”

Su Rong nodded in agreement, "That must be it... By the way, I have a rough idea of ​​her identity. She is most likely the orphan that Master Xu and the others found. Her name seems to be Mo Jiuwei."

At first, she didn't realize it, but now that she thinks about it, it's not hard to guess who this person is.

In the entire sect, there must be only that one girl who is so small and cute.

Thinking of Mo Jiuwei's background, Su Rong couldn't help but feel a little sad, with a mix of sympathy and envy.

An orphan, just like myself.

Speaking of which, Mo Jiuwei was abandoned when she was still an infant, and she had a disability since childhood. She almost froze to death in the winter. Her experience was even more tragic than mine.

However, her tragic situation took a turn for the better after she was taken in by the people of the Immortal Sect. She was loved by the entire sect and became everyone's darling. The Immortal Sect's fortunes also gradually improved, and she soon began to live a good life.

In contrast, although I had a house to live in since I was a child and was not freezing to death, I had to do dirty and hard work all the time, and I lived like this for fifteen years.

Fortunately, I met Ebi, and everything changed after that.
