Chapter 1136 Gossip
Just as Yunxi was trying to recall, a lazy voice entered her ears:

"You're the temporary helper that Shi Jiu found?"

Yunxi lowered her eyes, respectfully cupped her hands in greeting, and introduced herself:
"My name is Wei Yunxi, from the Immortal Realm. I was sent here to fight against the Zerg because I owed a favor to a senior codenamed 'Fairy Aura'. The time limit is set at ten years. If it is not enough, I will come again."

The woman chuckled softly after hearing this:

"You've probably been fooled by Shi Jiu. What favor needs to be repaid with ten years of war?"

Yunxi spoke the truth:
“That senior managed to get a Celestial King from the Celestial Realm to help me escape, which saved my life. I should repay this favor.”

"I see. That explains why you looked so familiar. You're the little guy who risked his life to drag the entire realm to ascension."

After hearing this, something flashed through Yunxi's mind, which she grabbed, and then her almond-shaped eyes lit up as she said:

"So it was you, senior. We, the junior and all the cultivators of the Weiyu Realm, have benefited from your kindness. You helped the Weiyu Realm ascend successfully at the last moment. Thank you for your help."

"It was Shijiu who noticed something was wrong with your situation and asked me to take a look when I had some free time, so I helped you out."

Yunxi said with great gratitude:
"It's a piece of cake for the seniors, but for our entire Weiyu world, it's a chance for survival."

"Since you want to thank me, then perform well on the battlefield. Our department's personnel selection is nearing completion, and new members will soon be entering the battlefield. Until then, I hope you can hold the line."

After speaking, the other party pushed a jade slip into Yunxi's hand:
"This contains your specific location to be stationed, as well as your temporary partner. Your group only needs to hold this location."

"Yes, senior."

The moment Yunxi caught the jade slip, she was teleported away.

The grating sound of the stone mortar echoed in Lianyi's ears:

"Lianyi, what do you think of the person I've found for you?"

"She's not bad. Her temperament and ability are fine. It just depends on whether she can persevere. You should urge her again to help us get more staff in our department as soon as possible. We can't keep robbing Peter to pay Paul."

"Don't worry, I've been urging them. They've already entered the assessment stage. If they can't pass the final test, headquarters won't feel comfortable letting them into the operations department. If their ability to handle pressure is too low, they might cause you trouble."

The Xiaoyunyan I chose has fought her way up from the cultivation world. She has extensive experience fighting against evil immortals and has also fought against the insect race in the ancient battlefield. She has no problems with experience or temperament, otherwise I wouldn't dare to let her go.

However, please keep an eye on her; she will eventually return to the Luoyuan Star System.

"I see."

On the other side, Yunxi had been teleported to the defensive line she was stationed at. She was greeted by a man named "Bai". He had white hair, a tall and straight figure, and wore a white trench coat. He looked refined and handsome, but his aura was somewhat weak and he looked tired.

Bai introduced his teammates to Yunxi, and then Yunxi introduced herself, so that everyone got to know each other. After that, Bai asked Yunxi to get acquainted with everyone and be ready to fight at any time.

After Bai returned to his private tent, a round-faced girl moved closer to Yunxi and whispered:
"Ranxi, are you also a cultivator?"

"Yes."

"No wonder Bai treated you so perfunctorily."

"What do you mean?"

"Bai once offended Director Lianyi of the Operations Department. She's a cultivator, which is why Bai has been stationed here for almost a hundred years. We're all betting on when he'll apply for a transfer." Yunxi felt this statement contained a lot of information, so she pressed for details:
"Is the head of the operations department that woman in the purple lightning-patterned robe?"

"Yes, you've met Ancestor Ripple?"

"Yes, she brought me here directly."

"Then you're lucky, at least someone above you values ​​you."

Yunxi chatted with the round-faced girl named Yuanyuan for a couple of minutes, then lowered her voice and asked:

"Yuanyuan, do you know how Bai offended Ancestor Lianyi?"

Yuan Yuan's bright eyes instantly lit up with gossip, and she lowered her voice as well:

"I really know about this. Out of curiosity, I specifically asked Director Lianyi's partner. I heard that when the old ancestor was a mid-level mission taker, he and Bai, who was already a special mission taker at the time, temporarily took on the same mission."

Someone stole the star core of a small world, causing the small world to collapse rapidly. Lord Jian couldn't bear to see the creatures of the small world suffer and eventually perish, so he issued a mission, asking those with life space to transfer the creatures there.

Although Ancestor Lianyi was a mid-level mission taker, she was a cultivator and had acquired a life space bound to her soul by completing missions, so she was temporarily sent there.

However, the special mission agents led by Bai looked down on the Ripple Ancestor at the time and sent her off to complete the mission without informing her of the evacuation time and meeting place.

Ancestor Lianyi sent all the creatures in her area into the Life Space, but Bai and the others were left behind. In the end, it was Ancestor's partner, Lord Shijiu, who built a temporary passage and rescued her.

Otherwise, Ancestor Ripple would surely be crushed by the power of spacetime. Once her divine soul shatters, her life space will also be annihilated. What good would come of those beings she collected?

Yunxi gasped after hearing this and said:

“That’s a life-or-death feud. If Ancestor Lianyi’s soul is destroyed, Bai can shift the blame onto her, saying that she acted on her own and ultimately harmed herself. The blame for the annihilation of those living beings will also fall on Ancestor Lianyi’s head.”

Yuanyuan snapped her fingers and said:

"That's right. That's what Bai said back then. He thought that with Ancestor Lianyi dead, everything would be over. But in the end, Ancestor Lianyi not only returned alive, but also brought all those creatures back safely and handed over strong evidence, completely overturning Bai's excuses. As a result, Bai was kicked out of the special mission team and demoted to a junior mission member."

Yunxi nodded in agreement:
"Rewards and punishments should be clearly defined; that's the only fair way. So why did he come here?"

Yuanyuan said with a smile:

"Haven't you heard? Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river. When Bai returned to the special mission team, Ancestor Lianyi was already the director of the combat department, a higher rank than him. Because the insectoids were multiplying rapidly and the war was intense, he was directly transferred here to guard the position, and he has been guarding it for a hundred years."

There was a clear hint of schadenfreude in the girl's voice, making it hard for Yunxi to pretend she didn't hear it. She asked in an even lower voice:
"He didn't resist?"

"He has to be capable, right? It's in accordance with procedure for Ancestor Lianyi to transfer him; it's a normal secondment. If he wanted to leave, he could submit a report, but he doesn't dare."

"why?"

"He's afraid of being retaliated against! Interdimensional missions are not easy, especially for special mission takers. The stronger the ability, the greater the responsibility. If he tries to avoid the difficult tasks, he will stop here."

If he gives up, he can be reincarnated; if he's unwilling to accept it, he can only endure it, but he may never see the light of day.

My darlings, here are two chapters for now, more to come. Fengling went to see "Pegasus 3" today and only started writing this after she got back, so it's a bit late, but the movie was pretty good.
