People in Douluo: Ice Phoenix does not fight or compete

Chapter 86: Bounty Mission

Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai followed Lu Qibin to look for Yu Xiaogang and the other two. Ning Rongrong just said lightly that she would go tomorrow and then returned to Blue Ba Academy alone.

She would not encounter any danger in Tiandou City. The secret guards of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect followed her all the time, and the leader was a Soul Saint-level master.

Yu Xiaogang felt guilty because he had no confidence to meet Flanders due to his current miserable condition.

Let them laugh if they want. At least I look as miserable as they do. And they can still continue to be one of their own because of their hatred for Shui Tian.

Near noon, the last two trucks of waste were transported out of the academy and ran into Qin Ming who was coming back to see Flanders and the others.

The teacher on duty told him that all the Shrek teachers had left. Although they had not expelled you from the teaching position, there was no need for you to come back.

Xiao Wu, Oscar, Yu Xiaogang, Flanders, Zao Wou-Ki, Lu Qibin, Shao Xin, and Li Yusong have all left.

Qin Ming did not doubt his words, and hurried out to look for Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun. He got the news at the hotel front desk that they had gone to another small hotel.

Fortunately, the good news continued. He could reunite with the other members of Shrek and leave a suitable mark for Tang Hao.

Liu Erlong walked alone on the streets of Tiandou City. It was the first time in ten years that she walked aimlessly alone.

The man who could share her joys and sorrows was gone, and in less than half a day she was almost defeated by loneliness.

Coupled with the way Flanders looked at her, she now found the blue sky and white clouds ugly.

I wanted to visit Yu Xiaogang but my reason stopped me.

Even if no one else would find out, she couldn't have anything to do with him.

As she walked along, she passed by a five-story building. Her heart slowly calmed down as she heard the faint sound of a piano coming from inside.

This is a special school. She doesn’t come here for studying, but just wants to have a place where she can forget her worries.

When I walked into Yuexuan, the doorman did not try to stop me. There were no strict rules here and everyone would consciously abide by some details.

When I walked to the front desk, the waitress was well-mannered and had a friendly smile on her face.

"Hello, welcome to Yuexuan. How can I help you?"

The men and women around her were all very young, and even though she didn't look very old, she felt a very strange sense of disharmony.

A young nobleman who recognized her identity nodded slightly to indicate that everyone was equal here, with the only difference between students and teachers.

"Hello, may I go up and sit in for a while?" Liu Erlong asked somewhat embarrassedly. This was indeed a very embarrassing request.

The receptionist smiled apologetically and said, "I'm very sorry, ma'am. The upstairs is the study area for students. We don't allow outsiders to enter without a special invitation! You can rest on the sofa in the hall. If you want to learn court etiquette or musical instruments, I can help you register."

"Okay, thank you~" Liu Erlong felt a little disappointed, and the sound of harp from upstairs came quietly.

"You're welcome. I hope Yuexuan can help you." The front desk clerk bowed slightly, demonstrating the utmost courtesy.

She turned and sat down on the sofa beside her, holding her cheeks, hoping to hear the elegant and beautiful piano music again.

Not long after, a figure slowly walked down the stairs.

She was wearing a silver palace dress and high-heeled crystal shoes as white as jade. She walked down the stairs slowly, holding on to one hand.

"President Liu, we meet again. Welcome to Yuexuan~"

Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong quickly stood up, and exclamations and praises were heard all around.

No matter how many times they meet, they will be impressed by her beauty and temperament. Her gentleness and peace in killing both men and women make countless people in Tiandou City fall in love with her.

She was far superior to him in both appearance and temperament. Liu Erlong felt that the only thing she could win over her was her figure.

Oh, and there is also the level of cultivation.

"Pavilion Master Tang~" Liu Erlong knew a little bit about the formalities, but there was no need to show off here, so she simply bowed to show respect as a soul master would do.

This way she wouldn't be annoying. Tang Yuehua didn't care about her behavior. The two of them had just met and didn't know each other at all.

But she felt the opportunity to understand had come.

He walked towards her step by step, and when they stood together, it was obvious who was better.

If Liu Erlong's looks and temperament were rated 90 points, then Tang Yuehua's would be 120 points, or even 150 points.

Facing this woman, Liu Erlong couldn't help feeling ashamed. For the sake of face, she didn't step back and act rudely.

"Is Dean Liu also interested in Yuexuan? Why not come upstairs with me to chat? It's a coincidence that I met Mr. Shuitian this morning." Tang Yuehua said softly.

Her eyes were calm, yet she seemed to see through all of Liu Erlong's thoughts.

Hearing this name, Liu Erlong's body instantly straightened. Due to the large number of people here, she suppressed her anxiety and said, "I really want to learn about music. I hope it won't be too much trouble for you~"

"No, please follow me upstairs." Tang Yuehua nodded secretly in her heart. It seemed that there was indeed a big problem between Shui Tian and Liu Erlong.

The two went upstairs one after the other, leaving several men in the lobby on the first floor secretly regretting that they couldn't watch them a little longer.

Two beauties with completely different temperaments standing together are doubly pleasing to the eye.

The two of them chatted for a long time, from Shuitian to Lanba Academy to Yuexuan, from emotions to life to music.

She was a good person to talk to, and before Liu Erlong knew it, she had told her many of her innermost thoughts.

I also felt a special kind of comfort from her conversation.

By the time she left, the procedures for temporary study had been completed.

It is not unreasonable for the dean of Blue Tyrant Advanced Soul Master Academy to come to a etiquette school to study music.

She was somewhat reluctant to leave here, but Tang Yuehua still had to teach those noble ladies, and it was the last class of the day.

On the way back, Liu Erlong was obviously in a much better mood. At least those complicated thoughts didn't come out at the same time to torture her.

He returned to the academy humming the unknown tune that Shuitian had hummed before.

However, when she passed by Shuitian's house, she couldn't help but stop and touch the door. There was no trace of him here anymore.

She came up with an idea as she walked back to the lakeside cottage and looked at the empty space in the flower garden.

I put my hand on the soil and closed my eyes. I could feel that the thousand-year-old ice was still underground. Shui Tian had not destroyed or moved that large piece of stuff.

The air temperature and sunlight barely meet the growing conditions for that rose, and as long as there are seeds, it can be replanted.

It was not yet dark, and Liu Erlong, who had just returned to the academy, hurried out again.

Tiandou City might not have that special seed, so she planned to hire some professional businessmen or mercenary teams to look for it, no matter how much it cost.

The pubs in Tiandou City are not like those in other cities which only become really lively at night.

The atmosphere here is cheerful even during the day.

There are many soul masters waiting for employers here. Not all soul masters can receive enough money for expenses. It is always good to take some work and earn more money.

This tavern is located in the northwest corner of Tiandou City. It is relatively remote and some underground transactions are often conducted here.

As soon as Liu Erlong came in, she attracted a lot of attention in the lobby.

It’s not the first time that a Soul Saint has appeared here, but there has never been a Soul Saint like her. Is it necessary for the dean of the Soul Master Academy to come to such a small place?

Liu Erlong had been on the mainland for a few years and was familiar with the rules. He walked to the front desk and said directly, "I want to post a task. Please help me register and post it."

The waiter at the front desk took a pen and paper from the side and said politely with a smile: "Let me make it clear first, we are only issuing tasks on your behalf. If you want to do something bad, please go somewhere else. This is a regular tavern."

Liu Erlong nodded indifferently and urged: "I'm not looking for trouble, I just want to find something."

She didn't believe a word the boy said, but among the people sitting here drinking, there were a few violent guys who were probably responsible for many deaths.

"That's good. After the deal is done, we'll charge you a small handling fee, is that okay?" The servant's eyes sparkled.

The thing that could make a Soul Sage come to them to post a mission must be something very special. There is some profit to be made from this order.

Liu Erlong knew the rules and didn't want to stay in such a place for too long, so she quickly said, "No problem, I'm looking for the seeds of a certain flower..."

After listening to this, the servant pondered for a long time before saying, "I have written down all the characteristics you mentioned, but I don't know how many gold soul coins you have prepared? If this thing really grows in the Far North as you said, the price will not be low!"

"I know this. I think you should know me, so don't treat me like a little white rabbit and just name your price!" Liu Erlong naturally knew that this was very difficult, as the Far North was famous for its dangerous continent.

The servant smiled embarrassedly, and the whole first floor fell silent. They all wanted to hear what kind of offer would be given.

This boy was not in charge of this kind of thing for the first time, and he cleverly wrote down a string of numbers on a piece of paper.

"This is the lowest price I can give you. I really can't arrange it for less than that! I'm sure you know that even a Fire Soul Sage like you would be in great danger in such a place."

Liu Erlong was shocked for a moment by this string of numbers, and it was indeed worth the price as the servant said.

Flower seeds are not worth much, but human life is valuable. Once you go there, who can guarantee that you will come back alive?

This price is for your life, not just for the seeds of the rose.

Liu Erlong gritted her teeth and waited for him to forgive her after he came back, even if it was just to make her a little happier.

"Okay, that's no problem. I'll pay half of the deposit first, and you'll know where to find me after the deal is done." Liu Erlong took out a black gold card and handed it over. This card contained a quarter of her belongings, and the rest of the money was in the finance department of the college, which could not be used for such private matters.

The boy took it with a smile, and was very happy that he could make a lot of money from this order. As for how many people would die as a result, it was none of his business.

If you want to make money, you have to be willing to risk your life. It’s okay at this time, but most of the soul masters who come in a few hours later will be waiting for this kind of desperate mission.

Everyone wants to make a fortune so that they won't have to worry about the rest of their lives.

"Come on, sign these two and put your fingerprints on them. We'll have reached an agreement. We'll each hold a copy of the contract. The contract will last until you're satisfied, or you can terminate it early if you no longer need it after at least three months. However, we'll deduct 30% of your commission. I think that's OK with you, right?"

Liu Erlong signed her name quickly, but she did not put her fingerprint on it. Instead, she took out the seal that represented her identity and stamped it twice.

Seeing this, the servant didn't say anything. This was telling the people behind him to be more careful, because Liu Erlong represented the entire Lan Ba ​​Academy, not just herself.

"Okay, I will arrange it for you as soon as possible and notify you as soon as I have any news." The servant solemnly put away a contract.

Liu Erlong also put away her share, nodded and said, "Thank you."

After saying that, she quickly left the tavern. She felt uncomfortable with the way those men looked at her. If this wasn't Tiandou City, she would have beaten one of them to death to warn the others who were glancing at her.

As soon as she left the tavern, the soul masters at the table immediately surrounded the front desk, staring at the servant eagerly.

The servant changed his polite attitude and said arrogantly: "Haha, those of you guys who are not Soul Kings should not participate. Your life is your own. Save your energy and wait for other tasks."

The people who had gathered around suddenly dispersed, leaving only three men and one woman.

The four of them were much calmer than the group of low-level spirit masters.

One of them, a skinny middle-aged man in a gray robe, said, "This mission should require a team of multiple people. I'm a fire-attribute soul-controlling king, so count me in."

"I am a strong attack type. Although I don't have the attributes of ice or fire, I am level 57, so you should count me as one." The woman was wearing a mask and had a charming figure. Her voice was full of seduction.

They all heard that this mission was to go to the Far North, and the dangers there made the remaining two people hesitate and not speak.

Standing here does not mean that they are willing to participate. They also need to see what price the boss can offer and whether it is worth their risk.

Compared with the fire soul king and the offensive woman, they were obviously much calmer.

The servant smiled and said, "I need a team of six to set off early tomorrow morning. You guys go and wait. The Soul Saint just now was very willing to spend money, so I have to choose the people carefully."

The four of them understood immediately that he wanted benefits, and he had to bribe this damn servant in order to accept the mission.

Time passed quietly, the tavern was filled with people, and this new high-priced task was hung at the top of the task wall.

The above requirements and task details caused them to discuss a lot. Some even suspected that the guy who issued the task was crazy, spending such a huge price just to find the seeds of a plant!

It is emphasized that one may go deep into the Far North, and soul masters with ice and fire attributes are given priority, and their cultivation must reach at least the Soul King level.

Many soul masters were discouraged, and in the end the servant only picked six out of the nine people who gave him benefits.

同夜
Tang Hao climbed through the window and entered Flanders' room.

I knew he would come back, but I didn't expect that he would climb in through the window without any trouble. After all, the last location Qin Ming marked was outside the window.

Flanders, Zao Wou-Ki, Yu Xiaogang, Lu Qibin, Shao Xin, Li Yusong and Qin Ming were all in this room.

With Tang Hao suddenly coming in, the double room seemed extremely crowded.

Seeing is believing. Tang Hao couldn't help but feel angry when he saw the miserable plight of Shrek people with his own eyes.

He was especially shocked by Yu Xiaogang’s knees wrapped in thick bandages.

I didn't expect Shui Tianzhen to be so cruel and beat all the Shrek people into this state.

Qin Ming was the only one who was not injured. He was lucky that he was assigned to lead the students to evacuate Lan Ba ​​Academy first.

"Your Majesty, you are here~" Flanders said weakly.

Yu Xiaogang was so excited that he burst into tears. He was so sad that he couldn't speak a complete sentence: "Haotian, Your Majesty Haotian, are you, are you okay recently? I, I, I shouldn't have let you see us like this~"

Unable to bear watching his son's teacher in such a pitiful state, Tang Hao stared at Flanders and said, "Tell me everything you know, everything that happened from before you came here to today!"

Hearing this, everyone in the room looked at each other and heard the anger in his tone.

Their eyes lit up as if they saw hope.

Flanders sighed and began to explain slowly: "Your Majesty, the story starts from when I learned about Erlong, no, Liu Erlong, in Tiandou City..."

They talked about everything that happened for nearly an hour, and Tang Hao sat down next to Yu Xiaogang without knowing when.

The sour smell made Yu Xiaogang frown secretly but he didn't dare to show it.

"I understand. No matter what, that kid shouldn't have been so harsh on you! Tell me, do you want me to cripple him or kill him!" Tang Hao stood up with a heavy tone. When his son came back and saw Shrek and Yu Xiaogang in this state, he would probably fight Shui Tian to the death. Shui Tian was destined to be his enemy from the moment he took action.

"kill him!"

Everyone in Shrek said in unison.
