The Great Ruler: Starting with the Contract Goddess Luo Li

"Qiu Beihai is dead?!"

"He's simply supreme!"

"That son who was born without an anus is finally dead. Now we can finally take on missions."

"..."

The boys and girls on the city wall cheered and jumped for joy when they saw Qiu Beihai lying on the ground.

At this moment, Lin Suzhou, who was on the plain, turned around and looked at Qiu Beihai's fallen body, and smiled.

Then they began cleaning up the battlefield, and in addition to a few low-grade spiritual weapons, they also acquired twenty-three blood-red tokens.

After Luo Li came to his side, Lin Suzhou took out all the wooden tokens for the tasks he had accepted.

There are a total of thirty wooden plaques, including twenty level four tasks and ten level three tasks.

"Your Majesty, let's go and complete the mission now."

Lin Suzhou put the wooden plaque into his storage ring and reached out his hand to Luo Li.

Luo Li nodded slightly, smiling as she placed her delicate hand in Lin Suzhou's large palm.

The two held hands and walked towards the first mission location.

Not long after they left, the vultures circling overhead let out a harsh, hoarse cry, landed beside Qiu Beihai and the others, and began pecking at the scattered flesh and blood on the ground.

"I've already killed Zhao Tiandu and Qiu Beihai. I guess he'll retaliate against me once he finds out."

On the mountain path, Lin Suzhou looked at the lush green fields and spoke up.

"I will always be by your side, protecting you from all the arrows thrown at you from behind."

Luo Li tilted her head, her beautiful eyes gazing at the young man who had entered her heart, and solemnly made a promise.

"Yes, I'm just lamenting how many men covet Her Majesty the Empress. If Ji Xuan really comes knocking, I'll make him suffer the same fate as Zhao Tiandu and the others."

Lin Suzhou played with Luo Li's soft little hand, his words exuding domineering power.

"Even if you kill him on the Spirit Road, I think the Dean of the Holy Spirit Institute will do everything he can to resurrect him."

Luo Li smoothed her black hair.

Upon hearing this, Lin Suzhou also thought of the characteristics of the Spirit Road.

That is, if a person who dies in the spirit world has a strong will, they can be brought back to life outside.

If one's willpower is not strong, then one will truly perish, both body and soul.

"Even if he comes back to life outside the Spirit Road, I will kill him again!"

Lin Suzhou's face was full of determination.

"Yes, I believe you."

Luo Li smiled and encouraged Lin Suzhou.

Seemingly remembering something, she paused for a moment before continuing, "By the way, the name 'Luo Shen Qing Shi' is quite nice, it sounds rather pleasant."

"I am deeply flattered to have gained Her Majesty's approval."

Lin Suzhou pretended to be very surprised, which made Luo Li roll her eyes again.

"General Lin, I, the Empress, hereby order you to complete all these tasks within the next two days. Do you have the confidence?"

"Mission accomplished!"

The two bickered and teased each other along the way, and their intimacy level gradually increased without them even realizing it.

……

While Lin Suzhou and his companion were completing their mission, they were located tens of kilometers away in the first protected area.

A handsome young man in a white robe was resting his face on his hand, occasionally taking a sip from the teacup beside him.

He exuded a refined and scholarly demeanor.

But beneath this refined exterior lies a cruel heart forged through countless bloody battles.

"Huff huff"

Suddenly, a young man in black robes ran in and, after a moment, said, "Brother Ji Xuan, I went to the second guardian land and found out that Qiu Beihai and the others were killed by a guy named Lin Suzhou. His current cultivation level is the peak of the second level of spiritual body, and he is currently completing a mission with Luo Li."

Upon hearing this, the young man in white raised his head, revealing a handsome face.

"Lin Suzhou?"

He murmured the name softly, a sarcastic smile playing on his lips: "It's good that Zhao Tiandu and Qiu Beihai are dead. I don't need such trash."

"Ge Hai, have the Shi brothers and Yang Hong take thirty men to guard the entrance of the second protected site. They can't come back with his head; otherwise, they don't need to come back either."

The young man named Ji Xuan revealed a ruthless glint in his eyes. "I'm about to break through to the third level of spiritual body, so I can't go right now. Once the Shi brothers bring Luo Li back, I'll get tired of playing with her and then let you have a taste."

The boy named Ge Hai licked his lips after hearing Ji Xuan's last words.

He only caught a glimpse of Luo Li from afar, but was immediately captivated by her unparalleled beauty.

"Yes! I'll go and inform the Shi brothers right away."

Ge Hai accepted the order and was about to run out when he suddenly remembered something.

He turned around and said, "By the way, brother, we also found a beautiful girl in the fifth guardian land, named Song Yuqing. However, she was accompanied by two men, one named Zhan Xiong, and the other seemed to be named Mu... Mu Chen, yes, that's him!"

"Then let Yang Hong lead men to capture Song Yuqing. The more beautiful women, the better."

However, the Shi brothers told him to bring more men and be careful.

Ji Xuan waved his hand, then slowly closed his eyes, taking his usual short nap.

……

"roar!"

In a clearing in the mountains, a handsome young man wielding a fiery red longsword is confronting a monster engulfed in flames.

Although this monster has the head of a lion, nine venomous snake heads protrude from its neck.

It is a lion-bodied snake-dancing beast at the early stage of the Spirit Wheel Realm.

But the boy was fearless. He drew his sword and charged at it. As the sword flashed, all nine snake heads were cut off.

Only the lion's head remained, constantly pouncing and biting at him.

"You beast, take this!"

The sword-wielding youth began to move with a mysterious gait, constantly circling around the sphinx and snake-like beast.

Finally, seizing the opportunity, he slashed at its neck with his sword.

"Thump."

Finally, its head flew high into the air and fell to the ground.

"Haha, Luo Li, we've finally completed this last task."

This young man was Lin Suzhou, who would appear two days later. He collected the essence and walked towards the silver-haired girl beside him.

"Yes, General Lin has done a good job with the mission."

Luo Li smiled and opened her arms to embrace him.

After the two lingered for a while, Lin Suzhou suddenly said, "We've killed quite a few Spirit Wheel Realm spirit beasts these past few days. Why don't we break through to the third level of the Spirit Body right here? We can take turns protecting each other."

"Then you should break through first, and I will protect you."

Although she didn't know why Lin Suzhou didn't return to the Guardian Land to break through, Luo Li still respected his choice.

"I'm afraid Ji Xuan will come after us for revenge, so upgrading to a level three spirit body will catch him off guard."

"But if any of them break through to the third level of spirit body, it will be disadvantageous for us."

Lin Suzhou patiently explained the reason to Luo Li, and then opened up a cave to enter it.

Lin Suzhou sat down on the spot and took out all the spirit essences except those for the mission.

A total of seven early-stage Spirit Wheel Realm essences and two mid-stage Spirit Wheel Realm essences.

"Inhale—exhale."

Lin Suzhou took a deep breath, took out the blood-red token, and began to convert spiritual energy.

As Lin Suzhou broke through, Luo Li held her sword and guarded her surroundings.

They were afraid that, as Lin Suzhou had said, Ji Xuan would send someone to their door.
