Chapter 856 - 348: News of Cen Zijin

Upon hearing this, Chu Ning felt a urge in his heart, retracted the spell, and exited the cave mansion.

Standing outside the cave mansion at that moment was Zhao Jinbiao.

However, facing Chu Ning, his face no longer held the previous ferocious expression, instead, he forced out a slight smile.

After being beaten by Chu Ning six months ago, Zhao Jinbiao not only didn’t report it to the sect, but occasionally when they met, he was quite polite to Chu Ning.

"Embark on a mission, what mission?"

Chu Ning didn’t show much amiability to Zhao Jinbiao, casually asked.

"Fellow Daoist Li will know later, wait a moment, I have to call the other Daoists."

While speaking, Zhao Jinbiao also called up the rest of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the peak.

Over ten people flew out again, arriving at the same venue they came to half a year ago upon reaching Little Yao Mountain.

But this time, Chu Ning observed not all the hundred or so people who entered before appeared.

Only about fifty were present, with another sixty to seventy, also at Foundation Establishment, who seemed to be cultivators of the Purple Moon Sect.

When Chu Ning and the others arrived, there were already two cultivators inside the venue, Xue Caiyun and Wu Lei, the two Middle Stage of Golden Core Cultivators.

However, Pei Jicai, the Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator, did not appear.

Upon seeing Chu Ning and the others appear, Xue Caiyun was the first to speak:

"Some of the stewards have been in the sect for a long time, some have just joined the sect for half a year.

Nonetheless, regardless of how long you’ve been in, the sect should not have treated everyone poorly.

Now is the time for everyone to serve the sect."

Xue Caiyun remained charming, her voice filled with allure, her eyes flowing with style.

With her high cultivation paired with the Charm Technique, instantly many male cultivators present naturally showed a trace of infatuation.

Chu Ning watched her, naturally displaying the same expression as the other male cultivators.

Xue Caiyun, gazed upon by many male cultivators, remained indifferent, continued:

"As for the task content, it’s no problem to inform everyone.

This time, the mission is not at Little Yao Mountain, but near the Biyou Mountain Range.

The Yin Demon Sect, taking advantage of us dispersing to Little Yao Mountain, seized one of our strongholds.

This time, we are going to take it back."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ning’s brows subtly furrowed.

Earlier in Wangshan City, he already heard some news. The reason Purple Moon Sect recruited so many Foundation Establishment Cultivators should be twofold.

On one hand, the style of Purple Moon Sect is entirely different from the surrounding three major sects, causing dissatisfaction among several sects in recent years.

Or fearing the joint countermeasure from the several sects against Purple Moon Sect.

On the other hand, Purple Moon Sect has been planning to annihilate the remnants hiding in Yaochi Palace.

Also needs enough manpower.

Chu Ning initially thought the mission would be targeting the Yaochi Palace cultivators, considering it might be an opportunity.

Now hearing it was not against Yaochi Palace but Yin Demon Sect, he couldn’t help but feel slightly disappointed.

However, the next statement from Xue Caiyun drew Chu Ning’s attention again.

At that moment, Xue Caiyun smiled, looking at everyone.

"This mission is the first one for many stewards joining the sect.

At that time, contributions will be ranked, and the top ten stewards killing Yin Demon Sect cultivators will not only receive abundant resource rewards.

But also an extra reward of a female cultivator from Yaochi Palace, a Righteous Fairy, don’t miss the chance, fellow Daoists."

As these words landed, there was an immediate upheaval among the Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

A glint of exception flashed in Chu Ning’s eyes.

After saying this, Xue Caiyun didn’t speak much further.

Wu Lei waved his hand casually, and a giant Bone Boat appeared above the venue.

The boat, entirely made of white bones, emitted strands of gray gas, appearing chilling upon a glance.

The usually quiet Wu Lei didn’t pay much attention to everyone’s expressions, and ascended first.

Immediately, he spoke coolly:

"Get on!"

Instantly, the cultivators already belonging to Purple Moon Sect leapt onto the Bone Boat.

While Chu Ning and the cultivators of his batch mostly remained in observance.

Seeing this, Chu Ning immediately ascended, landing directly on the Bone Boat.

Upon witnessing Chu Ning lead the way, the rest of the cultivators followed suit, flying onto the Bone Boat.

At this moment, Xue Caiyun’s charming eyes flowed, focusing on Chu Ning.

"I remember you’re called Li Qun, I heard you beat up the steward who led you on the first day?"

Chu Ning faced Xue Caiyun’s gaze just fittingly, with a hint of fervor.

"Reporting to Protector Xue, it was him who deducted my Spirit Stones first."

Xue Caiyun smiled slightly, "I didn’t mean to blame you, but I appreciate your ferocity.

Being able to suppress cultivators of the same tier, your strength isn’t bad, let’s see how you perform on this mission."

Xue Caiyun’s remarks instantly drew many eyes on the Bone Boat to look at Chu Ning.

Some were envious, some disdainful, some icy, but most were merely curious and soon lost interest.

In such sects, relations among cultivators are thin, and after all, Chu Ning was merely a Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

On the Bone Boat, everyone quieted down, most cultivators began meditating.

There were also a small part of cultivators occasionally glancing at Xue Caiyun’s back ahead.

This woman, even just sitting there, her silhouette seemed to carry a hint of allure.

Chu Ning naturally knew, that this was due to her Charm Technique reaching a highly profound level.
