The Demon Cultivator of the Sword

Chapter 19 Accepting the Mission
After paying the money, Gu Yuan gave Gu's father and mother another 12,000 taels of gold so that they could open a shop.

He spent another 50,000 taels of gold and asked Ling Xue to help him buy a top-level personal martial arts technique and a mid-level basic sword technique.

So that they can practice.

There's no way, that person's low-level Qi Condensation Technique is just rubbish.

Gu's father and mother's talent for cultivation was not very good to begin with, and they had missed the best age for cultivation. After three or four years of cultivation, they were still at the second level of the Qi training realm.

Of course, there is also the factor that they have to take care of the restaurant and don't have much time to practice.

Now that I have money, I can hire a few more helpers and spend more time practicing.

However, in this way, the 100,000 taels of gold that Gu Yuan had obtained when he broke into the mass grave would be almost gone.

But Gu Yuan was still very happy in his heart.

As for money, you have to spend it when necessary. There is no need to be a miser.

What's more, for Gu Yuan, money will only be a number in the future.

As an inner disciple of a sixth-rank sect, there are plenty of opportunities to make money.

Gu Yuan stayed in his new home for half a month, during which time he was invited by Ling Xue to observe the Ling family's clan meeting.

Those who attended the clan meeting were all the first generation of the Ling family who were under sixteen years old.

The result was somewhat beyond Gu Yuan's expectations. It was Ling Hua who got first place, defeating several opponents in the Condensation Realm in succession.

However, I felt relieved when I learned that those people had joined the seventh-grade sect.

After all, Ling Hua was able to join the sixth-grade sect because his talent was stronger than theirs. During the period when Gu Yuan was in seclusion to practice martial arts, he broke into the mass grave and obtained a low-level earth-level palm technique.

It is reasonable to get first place.

Half a month later, the group of four returned to the Feitian Demon Sect.

"Sister Ling, thank you so much this time. If there is anything you need from Gu Yuan in the future, please let me know. Gu Yuan will definitely help you to the best of our ability."

Before parting, Gu Yuan formally expressed his gratitude.

"We are all fellow disciples, so there is no need to say thank you. However, since Junior Brother Gu has said so, it would be disrespectful for me to refuse."

Ling Xue didn't act pretentiously. After all, she didn't need Gu Yuan's help now, but that might not be the case in the future.

Next, Ling Xue said that their Ling family would help take care of Gu Yuan's parents, and that no one would be so blind as to cause trouble.

Gu Yuan thanked him again and walked towards the Spiritual Hall on Tianmo Peak.

During the half month he stayed at home, although his skills did not improve much, his cultivation had improved and reached the peak of the initial stage of the Condensation Realm, which greatly enhanced his overall strength.

Now you can finally accept sect missions.

Perhaps because it was just the end of the Chinese New Year, there were no fewer than seven or eight hundred disciples gathered in the magnificent Spiritual Hall, and people came from time to time.

Not many people make money, and most of them are there to complete the mission of earning spirit stones.

But this also means it is more dangerous.

The spirit stones that Gu Yuan currently possessed were enough for him to practice for another month or two, so he planned to take on a bounty mission to gain some practice first.

"Destroy the Blood Flame Horse Bandits. Their leaders are three peak warriors in the early stage of Condensation Realm. They have over a hundred men under their command, and they have crossbows that are strong enough to penetrate the protective Qi of warriors in the early stage of Condensation Realm. No, there are too many uncertainties. Next one."

"Kill the flower-picking thief Red Shoes. Red Shoes is at the early stage of the Condensation Realm, but his Qinggong is extremely high. He once escaped unscathed from the siege of several peak warriors at the early stage of the Condensation Realm. No, it's obvious that there are more than one flower-picking thief, and their whereabouts are secretive. Although the danger is not great, it will take too much time."

"."

After looking through more than a dozen bounty missions, Gu Yuan didn't see any suitable ones. Finally, he focused on one mission - to kill the Thunderbolt Hand Tu Yuan.

Evil deeds: practicing martial arts on living people and killing people like flies.

Strength analysis: A martial artist at the peak of the early stage of Condensation Realm, suspected of practicing earth-level martial arts.

Recommendation: It should be accepted by two warriors at the peak of the early stage of Condensation Realm or one warrior at the middle stage of Condensation Realm.

Reward: Three thousand taels of gold.

Gu Yuan's eyes lit up, this was it.

Tu Yuan's strength is probably equivalent to that of an ordinary warrior in the middle stage of the Condensation Realm. Even if he hides his strength, he is at most at the peak of the middle stage of the Condensation Realm, not to mention Gu Yuan who has now practiced mid-level earth-level techniques and martial arts.

Even Gu Yuan before he changed his cultivation technique could do it.

But since we are practicing, the main focus is naturally on accumulating experience, which is safer.

Anyway, there are often tasks, and it's not the first time, so there's no need to rush. It won't be too late to take on more difficult tasks when you have enough experience.

After tearing off the task list in mid-air, Gu Yuan turned around and walked out of the Spiritual Hall. Seeing that it was still early, he walked out of the sect gate.

Gushui Town is a remote town close to Gushui River, a tributary of Luoyan River.

The town is not big and has no tall buildings. It is surrounded by a simple earth wall to prevent attacks from low-level monsters.

After all, there are many monsters and beasts in the wilderness, and if you are not careful, you will become their prey.

On the road not far from Gushui Town, a young man in black slowed down his pace. "According to the information, this Tu Yuan is practicing the unique martial arts of a former deacon of the Baoyuan Realm of the Jiuyou Sect, the Qingtian Thunderbolt Palm. Every seven days, he needs to suck human blood to avoid backlash. Seven days ago, Tu Yuan had committed a crime in Qingshi Town upstream of Gushui Town. These two towns are the only ones that can be inhabited within a thousand miles. He will definitely not stay in the same town for a long time unless he leaves this area."

The young man is Gu Yuan, and four days have passed since his next mission.

During these four days, he traveled during the day and meditated and practiced to cultivate his true energy at night, and finally arrived at the ancient water town 30,000 miles away.

"Well, no matter what, let's go in and take a look first."

Gu Yuan took out the Red Flame Sword from the storage spirit ring and put it on his waist. Then he flashed and used the phantom clone luck method to rush towards the gate of Gushui Town.

After entering Gushui Town, Gu Yuan slowed down his pace and walked normally.

The environment in the town was pretty good, much better than the harsh environment of his hometown, Xueling Town, which was covered in ice and snow. If it were in Gu Yuan's previous life, it would definitely be a world-class scenic spot.

Of course, Gu Yuan had no time to appreciate these things. His purpose in coming here was to kill Thunderbolt Hand Tu Yuan and leave after that.

There is a three-story restaurant in the center of the town. Perhaps it is the only restaurant here.

Before Gu Yuan got close, there was a sound of fierce fighting coming from inside. The fighting started quickly and ended even faster.

A moment later, a figure in purple clothes smashed the third-floor window and fell on the street, covered in blood.

Then another short figure jumped down and stepped on the purple-clothed figure's chest. The purple-clothed figure spurted out a large mouthful of blood again.

This attracted many passers-by to stop and watch.

Gu Yuan also came over and saw that an ugly man had knocked a sect disciple down from the third floor of the restaurant.

This short and ugly man was none other than the Thunderbolt Hand Tu Yuan.

"Hehehe, a mere disciple from a seventh-grade sect who is at the peak of the initial stage of the Condensation Realm actually dares to attack me. He is simply courting his own death."

Tu Yuan laughed strangely.

ps: Second update.
