Chapter 545 - An Impossible Quest! (2/2)
"Alright! I will do my best!" Jiang Fei immediately agreed after receiving the notification. After all, he was the cause of all of this. Regardless of whether Jiang Fei was given the quest or not, he would still involve himself to resolve the matter.
"Thank you so much!" The Saint bowed at Jiang Fei.
"There isn't much time left. I shall depart now!" Jiang Fei nodded. As there was a limited time to the quest, Jiang Fei had to leave immediately to rescue Hua Mulan and the rest. If they were burned to death, there was nothing left for Jiang Fei to say.
"Sylphy, you should accompany the Saint!" Jiang Fei said to Sylphy after they left the room.
"Let me go with you!" Sylphy did not want Jiang Fei to take on the risks alone.
"It's alright. I am going to enter the deeper parts of the Light Faction. Wouldn't you cause more trouble if you came with me?" Jiang Fei shook his head.
Sylphy was now the Light Faction's biggest embarrassment and a wanted criminal. Moreover, she had such a strong Overlord aura that as soon as she entered the Light Faction's vicinity, many of the Light Faction's experts would come after her. If that were to happen, she would only expose Jiang Fei's location.
"Alright then. Please be careful…" Sylphy said reluctantly.
"Don't worry! I will take good care of him!" Isabella said to Sylphy with a pleased look on her face. She was the only one who could truly accompany Jiang Fei all the time.
After taking off from the Demon Flame Fortress, Jiang Fei opened the quest list as he sat on the Juvenile Skygliding Dragon to look at the Saint's quest.

"It's one of those quests that rewards one based on completion levels!" Jiang Fei nodded as he thought to himself. However, the current quest is much more challenging to complete. He would have to save all five hundred of the Saint's Guard's members. Even if one of them died, Jiang Fei would not be able to obtain the reward from the highest level of difficulty.
Soon enough, Jiang Fei passed through the border which separated the Light and Dark Factions as he soared through the air. He finally entered the Light Faction's territory. As it was in the frontlines, there were air patrols from the Light Faction all around. Therefore, Jiang Fei did not dare to fly too low. So he maintained his position at a higher altitude.
According to the quest's location pinpoint, Jiang Fei would arrive at the place where the Saint's Guard's members were held captive after two more hours of flying.
It was a small mountainous valley with a small castle at the center of the valley. It seemed like a place where people would be held captive. The place did not seem very heavily guarded. After all, the castle was located in the core territory of the Light Faction. There was a very slim chance of it being attacked by outsiders.
Although the place was not heavily guarded, it was still a difficult feat to rescue people from that place. After all, there were enough archers in the archery towers above the castle to kill Jiang Fei within just a few seconds.
