224 Heretic Forces (1/2)
Jun Wulei cast a glance at Mo Qingtian, but did not bother with him. Instead, he looked at Mo Wen coldly and said, ”What do you want to discuss with me?”
Mo Wen raised his eyebrows and said, ”Let me accept this mission.”
”You?”
Jun Wulei looked up and down at Mo Wen. This youth was still young, probably not even 20, but he dared to accept a Savages List mission? Since when had such a young expert appeared in the Huatian Palace?
Although geniuses were gathered in the Huatian Palace, a person who reached the Embryonic Breathing realm before he was 20 was rare. Of the Five stars Executors in the Huatian Palace, there were less than five who were younger than 25. One who was younger than 20 could not have appeared yet, right?
A glint of doubt flashed in Jun Wulei's eyes. He did not know this youth. He did know Mo Qingtian, who was beside him. The Vermilion Bird Palace Hall's only male member would naturally be well known.
Also, Mo Qingtian was very famous due to his talent. He had just entered his twenties, but he already had beginning stage Embryonic Breathing realm cultivation. A few more years, and he probably would not be beneath Jun Wulei.
”That's right. Friend, if you are willing to let me have this mission, I'll be sure to repay you handsomely in the future,” Mo Wen said plainly.
”Too bad. I've already accepted the mission. Everything is first come, first served. Don't blame me.”
Jun Wulei looked askance at Mo Wen, then expressionlessly clicked the confirm button on the screen. The next moment, the characters for Gong Biluo's name turned gray, showing that her Hunting Mission had been accepted.
The ring that the Huatian Palace distributed to the Executors was not simple. There were many secrets contained inside, like a miniature magical treasure that had many functions.
Mo Wen had come in contact with the Immortal Cultivation world before, so he naturally understood this.
After Jun Wulei accepted the mission, he then expressionlessly headed out. He did not seem to have the intention of dealing with Mo Wen and Mo Qingtian.
Mo Wen's facial expression chilled. His feet shifted. He wanted to stop Jun Wulei, but Mo Qingtian stopped him instead.
”Don't cause trouble. You are not his opponent yet,” Mo Qingtian said in a low voice.
Not to mention, Jun Wulei was not easy to talk to. If Mo Wen enraged him, problems would arise.
Mo Wen frowned and asked, ”Who is he?”
”He is called Jun Wulei. He is an outstanding person of the Azure Dragon Palace Hall's younger generation. His cultivation is deep beyond measure. It is said that he reached the pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing realm long ago, and has hopes to reach the Golden Elixir realm. Do you know about the Heaven List Fifty? Jun Wulei is ranked 28.”
Mo Qingtian looked askance at Mo Wen. Jun Wulei was not a person that he should offend. One could imagine how powerful someone had to be to make the top thirty of the Heaven List Fifty.
Mo Qingtian consoled Mo Wen. ”Don't you worry. Before this, a few Executors, whose abilities are above Jun Wulei's, went to kill Gong Biluo, but in the end they failed. Even now that he is going, he may not necessarily succeed. That Gong Biluo is no easy target.”
Although Mo Qingtian did not know what the relationship between Mo Wen and the Demoness was, it certainly would not be normal.
Mo Wen took a deep breath and closed his eyes slightly. He couldn't change anything now. He was still too weak. Otherwise, he would not be in such a predicament.
As he slowly opened his eyes, they flashed brightly. He must quickly get stronger, no matter what methods he used.
Mo Qingtian looked at Mo Wen, and a glint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Just now, for a split second, Mo Wen's body seemed to give off a flash of aura that shocked him. However, by the time he tried to carefully discern it, the aura had disappeared.
Even so, that instant left a deep impression on him. Only the absolute strongest people had such an aura. It was impossible for ordinary people to have such an aura.
The Golden Elixir realm! He had felt such an aura before from a strong person of the Golden Elixir realm. But how could it appear in Mo Wen? This was what he could not quite figure out. After all, Mo Wen's strength could not be at the level of the Golden Elixir realm. That was impossible.
Mo Qingtian glanced at Mo Wen carefully. His facial expression was calm, impervious to passions and desires, seemingly showing no emotions at all. He couldn't tell anything about him by looking at him.
The two of them exited the Savages List Palace Hall, then toured the Mission Palace Hall.
Suddenly, Mo Wen stopped in front of a mission notice. A light flashed in his eyes as he was seemingly deep in thought.
”Why? Are you interested in this mission?” Mo Qingtian raised his eyebrows, taking a glance at the mission.
The mission was simple. Recently, there seemed to be an organization akin to heretic forces appearing in the area around the Capital. The organization was entrenched in that area, secretly conducting some underground activities that no one seemed to know about.
This mission hoped to have some Executors infiltrate the organization and investigate its aim.
The activities of heretic forces were always happening all over the world. The Huatian Palace had to constantly monitor their movements to prevent situations that they could not control from happening. Consequently, missions like this were extremely common.
”Heretic forces?”
Mo Wen looked incredulously at Mo Qingtian. What did he mean by ”heretic forces?”
”Regarding the heretic forces, I also do not know much about them. But in the world, if there is a positive, then there is a negative. If there is light, then there is darkness. If we say that our Huatian Palace is on the side of light, then the heretic forces are on the side of darkness.”
