Skip this! Just tell me who to kill!

"Alright, alright, what are you babbling about? Skip it, skip it."

Upon hearing this, Qin Muyuan said...

Back in Qinghua County, the fact that he was willing to exchange a few pleasantries with Xiao Feng was already the limit.

Seeing that Xiao Feng still looked guilty, she seemed to want to persuade him with something.

So Qin Muyuan lost patience and skipped Xiao Feng's words.

Then he walked up to Xiao Chang, glanced at the exclamation mark above Xiao Chang's head, and said:

"Give me a task, give me a task."

"Task?"

Xiao Chang was taken aback when he heard this word.

It was as if I had heard some kind of safety word.

Suddenly, Xiao Chang recalled the scene when he first met Qin Muyuan in the Heishui County prison.

At that time, I was imprisoned in the Blackwater Prison, feeling disheartened and thinking that I would probably die at the hands of the county soldiers of Blackwater County in the small mountain country.

Unexpectedly, Qin Muyuan suddenly appeared and rescued him...

Xiao Chang suddenly raised his eyes, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

With an inexplicable sense of anticipation, he asked Qin Muyuan:

"Brother Qin, are you... confident?"

Unlike Xiao Feng, Xiao Chang did not feel remorse or shame. Instead, he went straight to Qin Muyuan and asked him the question.

Qin Muyuan grinned: "Skip, skip!"

Upon hearing this, the worry that had been on Xiao Chang's face suddenly vanished.

He took a deep breath, quickly raised his hand, and silenced Xiao Feng and the other elders of the Xiao family who were about to speak.

Immediately, he looked at Qin Muyuan and said:

"Brother Qin! I'd like to entrust you with a task!"

Xiao Chang, with a serious expression, issues you a task.

[Mission: Break through the demonic realm and rescue the Xiao family and the people of Qinghua County]

Currently, Qinghua County is shrouded in the demonic domain laid down by the Black Water Demon. The Xiao family and the county's inhabitants are trapped within, struggling to survive amidst the Black Water Demon's whims and their own fate. Fortunately, they have awaited your arrival. At this moment, Xiao Chang solemnly entrusts you with a request: please make the following choice—

[Mission 1: Destroy the Demon Realm and rescue the trapped people of Qinghua County. The final reward will be calculated based on the number of people successfully rescued.]

[Mission Two: Eliminate the Black Water Demon, break its demonic domain, and slay the Black Water Demon here.]

[Note 1: Task 2 is very difficult, please choose carefully]

[Note 2: Task 2 has subsequent related tasks. Selecting Task 2 will grant you a task seed for the subsequent related tasks.]

【任务奖励：经验值+2000~7000，商城积分+10000~30000，无色武学~绿色武学*1，无色装备~绿色装备*1】

The task is complete, and the reward looks pretty good.

Qin Muyuan grinned, looked at Xiao Chang who had briefly explained the task and then immediately fell silent, and said:

"I accept your mission!"

It has to be said that the task given by Xiao Chang was the one that suited Qin Muyuan's taste the most.

The task instructions were brief and concise, without any unnecessary words, and the speaker even interrupted others.

Before Qin Muyuan even had to ask to skip it, Xiao Chang had already asked him to skip it.

Having received the mission, Qin Muyuan immediately turned around and headed towards another location within the Xiao residence.

Within his field of vision, the mission arrow that Shi Gandang was pointing to was also within the Xiao residence.

It is likely that Shi Gandang was taken in by the Xiao family when he fled with his daughter.

That's good, it saves me the trouble of going to find Shi Gandang.

Watching Qin Muyuan turn and leave, Xiao Feng and the other elders of the Xiao family were first stunned, then looked at Xiao Chang with blank expressions.

Xiao Chang sensed their gazes, exhaled, and slowly said:

"Father, uncles."

"Since Brother Qin dared to travel to the Demon Realm and return to Qinghua County, he must be absolutely certain of his success."

"Therefore, we should believe him!"

Upon hearing this, the other elders of the Xiao family opened their mouths, seemingly wanting to speak.

However, Xiao Feng, as the head of the Xiao family, raised his hand and said seriously:

"Since you've said so, Chang'er, then I will have no more doubts!"

"Xiao Shan, take your servants to pack your belongings and reassure the people below, making sure they are ready to flee at any time."

"Once Brother Qin breaks through the Demon Realm, we will immediately organize an escape!"

"...Yes." Upon hearing the order, the clan elder named Xiao Shan paused for a moment, then quickly went downstairs.

Xiao Feng gazed at the elder's retreating figure, then looked at the Xiao family's old residence, before finally slowly withdrawing his gaze.

"Misfortune may be a blessing in disguise, and a blessing may be a misfortune in disguise!"

Xiao Feng sighed deeply, lamenting the impermanence of life.

The Xiao family was disliked by the emperor for advising against large-scale construction projects that would burden the people and waste resources, which forced them to move their ancestral home from the center of Qinghua County to another location.

Unexpectedly, a demonic calamity is about to strike, with the Black Water Demon descending upon the center of the county town.

The city's powerful and wealthy were the first to be killed and transformed into demonic puppets.

The Xiao family, on the other hand, escaped this calamity.

Previously, to repay Qin Muyuan for saving Xiao Chang, the Xiao family had gifted him a precious sword and a sword technique.

Later, upon hearing that Qin Muyuan was being pressured by powerful families in the county, the Xiao family prepared carriages and money to help Qin Muyuan escape.

Although Qin Muyuan did not take their advice to run away, he was grateful for the Xiao family's kindness.

Therefore, it was only when the Xiao family was in dire straits that Qin Muyuan stepped in to save them, pulling them back from the brink of disaster...

Good fortune and misfortune are intertwined, and life is unpredictable; who can say for sure?

……

the other side.

Qin Muyuan found Shi Gandang and his daughter Shi Yan in a small side room of the Xiao residence.

They were currently staying in a side room with the people who had been taken in and protected by the Xiao family.

Although his clothes were covered in dust and his face was covered in ash, he survived unharmed.

"Master Qin?!"

"It's you, my benefactor and hero!"

Upon seeing Qin Muyuan, Shi Gandang and Shi Yan immediately stood up excitedly and went to greet him.

Qin Muyuan exchanged a few pleasantries with the two men, and then went to find Shi Gandang, asking him to draw a map for him from Huoyun Kingdom to Lingzhufang City in Daliang Kingdom.

Qin Muyuan missed the Yu family terribly!

So, upon returning to Qinghua County and receiving his new mission from Xiao Chang, the first thing he did was to ask Shi Gandang for a map!

Shi Gandangdang immediately drew a map for Qin Muyuan, and then asked Qin Muyuan why he wanted the map.

Qin Muyuan told Shi Gandang about the Jade Water incident, and Shi Gandang immediately beat his chest and stamped his feet in regret.

He never imagined that his plea for help from the Yu family would almost lead to such a terrible mistake, nearly costing his savior his life!

However, Qin Muyuan didn't care about this.

after all.

Putting everything else aside, Yu Shui contributed a stream of Qinghe spiritual energy to him, enabling him to embark on the path of martial arts cultivation.

As for Yu Zhen... she had already been smashed into a pile of bloody mud by herself, and was beyond dead.

Thanks to Yu Zhen, Qin Muyuan has now found his main storyline and goal in the game.

Just as the Abandoned Emperor said—the human world has become filthy again!

This filth must be washed away with blood!

After putting the map away, Qin Muyuan wiped the blood off his face with water.

Immediately, he opened the panel and glanced at the "Little Girl Shi Yan's Gratitude," which had already lost several days of its duration.

Fortunately, Shi Yan is here, so we can extend our time together.
