Chapter 1167: Chapter 1167: Xi Yu (National Day Part 1)

Xing Kong had also dispatched all the heavy armored pike soldiers by his side, while Yu Ye had completely suppressed Hua Jieyu’s offensive. Hua Jieyu, exhausted from defending and also due to the nature of her weapon being a long whip, gradually slowed her movements after a tremulous struggle. Yu Ye had not been severely attacking, merely continuously harassing her, seemingly intent on capturing Hua Jieyu alive.

"Huh? Where did that guy Ling Han go? Could he have escaped?"

As Xing Kong searched around, he found Ling Han already running away at the fastest speed of his life on a distant hillside.

Hua Jieyu glanced at the retreating figure of Ling Han and couldn’t help but let out a deep sigh, her beautiful eyes filled with disappointment. After dodging several of Yu Ye’s thrown flying knives, she decisively threw her long whip to the ground and said to you, "I surrender."

Even in surrender, Hua Jieyu still managed to exude charm. She threw you a seductive glance and coquettishly said, "Handsome boy, don’t you forget about me, you still owe me a favor."

"Quit your babbling, stay put!" Yu Ye seemed to have anticipated Hua Jieyu’s actions, and quickly tied Hua Jieyu’s hands behind her back with a very strong rope, "This woman is an important figure from Black Flag Stronghold, she might be of use in the future."

"Sister, you really think too highly of me. I am just a pitiful person fallen on hard times."

Hua Jieyu’s grave eyes stayed fixed on you, her expression and posture giving off an impulse to take her into one’s arms and protect her further: "Handsome boy, sister has tied me up so tightly, could you loosen it a bit for me? Don’t worry, with so many of you here, I won’t be able to run away."

You sighed, then said to Yu Ye, "Untie the rope, I’ll take responsibility for her."

The fact is, you did this for a reason. Hua Jieyu bore a striking resemblance to someone—Xi Yu!

Back in the Map of Kingdom, Xi Yu was also full of seductive charm, absolutely irresistible.

"Mu Yun, Xing Kong, Yu Ye, congratulations. Although many unforeseen events occurred during this mission, you all ultimately relied on your own strength to resolve the crisis at Moyun Village, so you have successfully been promoted."

Qing Ling handed over three Level 2 Badges glowing with a pale yellow light to the three of you.

Yu Ye indifferently pinned the badge on her wide belt, while Xing Kong wore the badge on his chest with a beaming smile; but you just put the badge straight into your pocket.

This action of yours immediately drew discontent from the mercenaries behind Qing Ling: "Hey, black-haired kid, put your badge on!"

"Do you want to desecrate the goddess in our hearts?"

"Bastard! This guy is too arrogant, really annoying to watch."

You glanced at the crowd, calmly saying, "I live for myself, not for that legendary woman."

After speaking, you ignored the clamoring crowd and turned to Qing Ling, "Are there any other missions?"

"There are many more missions, it’s just that you’ve only just completed..."

"Are there any suitable for me?"

Some might think you are posturing, and others might find you pretentious, but if they really understood your feelings, they would not think so.

Having just acquired power from the Vein of the Fire Element, you are especially eager for the power of the other four Elements’ Veins.

At the same time, you also have this feeling that as long as you gain the power of the other four Elements’ Veins, your close combat magic will achieve Mahayana, and the power of the Scenic Sect among The Eight Gates of Heaven can also be restored. This is also the best and fastest method to restore the Seal of Truesky.

Moreover, you are well aware that your combat experience is severely lacking, and you also want to use close combat magic flexibly in battle, constantly improving your own strength.

Qing Ling looked at you helplessly, shaking her head slightly, then after a moment of contemplation, she continued, "The tasks recently are quite simple, and major warfare tasks generally do not allow mercenaries below Third Level to participate. Since you are so eager to level up, you should head to Jugong City. It seems that the Second Prince of the Xuanqin Empire, Ling Yifeng, is currently looking for the long-lost Fourth Prince, You Se, and he is now recruiting mercenaries to go to the territory of the Green-skin Tribe in the North."

"Ling Yifeng?" You didn’t think too much and accepted the offer right away, "Alright, I’ll take this mission."

"Mu Yun, if you take this mission, what about Su Su?" Xing Kong said, patting your shoulder.

You didn’t answer directly, but instead asked Xing Kong, "Aren’t you all going together?"

"Little Ye and I will head to Locke City first to take care of some things. Originally, I wanted to invite you to come with us," he replied.

You smiled and said, "It looks like it will be quite some time before we see each other again."

"Well, that’s not necessarily the case. It’s not that far after all, Locke City has a Teleportation Array that goes directly to Jugong City, just a blink of an eye away. However, the City Lord of Gordon City is at odds with the City Lord of Jugong City, so the teleportation between the two cities is not open, and it seems you will have to walk to Jugong City. That road is not easy to travel, I’m not worried about you, but I’m afraid Su Su will have a hard time along the way. You, my friend, can’t you take a break sometimes?"

"Can’t help it, just can’t seem to rest."

"Mu Yun, you must treat Su Su well. She’s a good girl. During the time you disappeared, she washed her face with tears every day. At that time, both Xing Kong and I thought you were dead, but she firmly believed you were all right. This time, when going out on a mission, she insisted on following you, to the point where in the end I had no choice but to drug her to sleep," Yu Ye walked up to you, "You better head back quickly, I’m afraid she’ll do something foolish when she wakes up."

You nodded, "Okay, I’ll leave right now."

"Hey handsome!" Just as you turned around, you heard the coquettish voice of Hua Jieyu, "Would you please, please let me go? I swear I’ll never do evil again."

Hua Jieyu’s face showed a pitiful expression, causing the men around her to twitch their fingers restlessly, saliva flowing.

Before you could refuse, Hua Jieyu continued, "You know, if Ling Han and I had teamed up to attack you that day, you would already be a corpse by now. Would you please let me go?"

Towards the end, Hua Jieyu had started to coquettishly plead with you.

You exchanged a glance with Xing Kong, who appeared to be enjoying your predicament with a mocking expression on his face.

You glared at Xing Kong and then said to Yu Ye, "Yu Ye, what do you think... I really do owe her a favor... that..."

Yu Ye didn’t say anything. She walked behind Hua Jieyu, untied the rope, pushed Hua Jieyu slightly, and said coldly, "You’re lucky this time. If you fall into my hands again, I’ll scrape your face with a knife."

"Brother Mu Yun, thank you so much."

Hua Jieyu probably looked three or four years older than you, but the way she called you "Brother" was quite natural. You shook your head helplessly and walked away.
