"Is there something you need?" The other person's praise did not stir her emotions in the slightest. She was always so indifferent and aloof. Perhaps only in front of that person would she show a touch of humanity.

The man hadn't expected her to be so cold, but remembering that the intelligence he had received mentioned this matter, he didn't pay too much attention to it: "Let me introduce myself first. I am Zang Jiu, the person in charge of this region for the Adventurers' Guild. This time, I have a top-level mission for you."

"Not interested." Yan Xuehen turned and left. She came to the Adventurers' Guild to find out where Zaun and the others were, not to actually work for them.

Zang Jiu was taken aback, but reacted quickly and said, "This is a mission personally issued by our guild leader, recruiting the most powerful adventurers from all over the world. I heard from the people below that you want to find people. As long as you complete this mission, you can be upgraded to the highest level adventurer and use the Adventurer Guild's intelligence system at will. Then you won't have to work so hard to do various missions."

He paused for a moment and added, "Moreover, according to the Adventurer's Guild's upgrade system, no matter how many tasks you complete, you still have to go through a long period of assessment. It's impossible to reach the highest level in less than a few years. The task issued by the guild leader this time is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Oh? What mission?" Yan Xuehen finally turned around.

"We'll explore the tomb where Chikawa appeared recently with the guild leader, and we might also have to capture a woman named Jing Teng." Zang Jiu finished speaking and waited for the other party to ask for more specific information about the mission.

To everyone's surprise, Yan Xuehen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take this mission. Notify me through the local adventurer association when it's time to set off."

Watching her graceful figure disappear into the distance, Zang Jiu couldn't help but sigh: "This woman is exceptionally beautiful and a pure human. If it had been her instead of that vine demon that you met back then, how could you have fallen into this love affair..."

"Hmm, this is a good opportunity to bring her and the young master together. Maybe it will help the young master get over it completely."

...

Meanwhile, Xie Daoyun and Yun Jianyue were fighting a fierce battle with a group of evil spirits in a valley.

"This is unbelievable! The more we kill these evil spirits, the more they seem to multiply." Yun Jianyue casually swatted away a large number of ghostly figures and couldn't help but complain.

"Sister Yun, could you please not mention the word 'ghost'?" Xie Daoyun was almost in tears; she felt extremely uncomfortable whenever she heard that word.

They had been searching for the whereabouts of Zuan and his group for some time, but unfortunately, they found nothing.

Until a few days ago, I heard that there was a Wangjiawu nearby. The Wang family was a famous family in the world, and many talented people from the family served as officials in various forces. At the same time, the lord of Wangjiawu was a high-ranking member of the Shenxiao Sect, who had connections everywhere. The Shenxiao Sect was the number one sect in the world, and its information network was exceptionally good. So I decided to come here to find out some information.

The two women knew the dangers of traveling at night, but they wanted to find Zu'an and the others as soon as possible. In addition, Wangjiawu was not too far away from here, and the two were confident in their cultivation, so they decided to travel through the night.

Unexpectedly, after falling into this valley, a strange change occurred. The once quiet valley suddenly sprang forth with countless ghostly creatures, rushing towards them from all over the mountains.

They kill one batch and another comes in; it's endless.

It was fortunate that one of them possessed exceptional cultivation and the other had profound knowledge of runes; their cooperation allowed them to hold on. Had it been any other cultivator, they would probably have been overwhelmed by the countless ghosts that roamed the mountains.

However, they were already surrounded, making it very difficult for them to escape.

Just then, a flying boat swept across the sky.

"Who was the unlucky one to wander into this ancient battlefield in the middle of the night?"

"They were two such beautiful women!"

"Huh? We've never seen the runes that girl used before. Quickly, go and report to the Second Young Master!"
