One person is anxious, while the other pretends to be stupid.
After that, Wu Er and Lao Dashu became sworn brothers, willing to go through fire and water together.
It has to be said that this situation is incredibly bizarre no matter how you look at it.
Fortunately, neither of them paid much attention to this strange development, as one was in a hurry and the other was acting.
"Brother Zhang, I have something urgent to ask of you, you must help me!"
Lauda looked anxious, and her voice quickened considerably.
"What's wrong! If my brother is in trouble, I'll go through fire and water for him!"
Wu Er readily agreed, since the two had become "iron brothers," so he was bound to agree immediately.
Lauda shook his head again, hesitated for a few moments, and then said, "This is a little difficult to say, but I just hope that you can stay by my side, brother! I... I just hope that you can stay by my side!"
This means that he wants to ride on Wu Er's coattails.
But the way Laudashu said it so abruptly did have a certain peculiar quality.
Especially that line, "I just hope you can be by my side," is so strange for one grown man to say to another.
Okay, let's ignore all that...
"Why is that?" Although Wu Er knew the reason, he still pretended to be puzzled.
And then Lauda Tree began to explain.
"I have some skills in observing auras and fortunes, and I see that you, brother, are surrounded by auspicious purple energy, almost overflowing with water. But I'm having a lot of bad luck, so I thought I'd try to ride on your good fortune."
After listening, Wu Er pretended to suddenly understand and said, "So that's how it is. Leave this small matter to me!"
"Then I'll have to trouble you, brother!" Lao Dashu cupped his hands in greeting, his face full of excitement.
After a conversation, Wu Er decided to follow Lao Dashu.
It's worth mentioning that Wu Er learned some things during a later conversation with Lauda Tree.
That is, because of the assessment, Lao Dashu accepted a sect mission, and after accepting the mission, he was plagued by bad luck.
It seems that if I were to take on this mission, the odds would be against me.
However, if you don't do this task and fail the assessment, you risk being expelled from the sect.
Although Lauda Tree was highly qualified, he did not receive any special treatment and was still advised to leave if he failed the assessment.
From this perspective, whether you do it or not, you're doomed.
Fortunately, he met Wu Er, which gave Lao Dashu confidence to take on the sect missions!
"Brother, when I get back from this mission, I promise I won't treat you badly. I still have some savings, and I'll use them all to repay you!"
Wu Er and Lao Dashu arrived at a place by taking a taxi from Pengshan Gate.
This place is a mortal kingdom affiliated with Pengshan Gate, and it is also the location of Lauda Tree's mission.
"No need, we're all brothers, why bring up money!"
Wu Er refused Lao Dashu's offer; he really didn't think much of continuing as just a junior disciple.
Along the way, Lao Dashu kept trying to win over Wu Er, promising him many benefits, afraid that Wu Er would change his mind and go back.
We finally found someone we can ride on their coattails, so we can't just let them go like this!
Then Lauda praised him again and kept making promises, trying to make Wu Er feel comfortable.
Wu Er wasn't buying it at all. He was just out for a stroll out of boredom and happened to lend a hand, so he was quite disgusted by such flattery.
So he said, "Brother Lao, let's talk about your mission first, so I can see how I can help."
"The mission," Lauda waved his hand. "You don't need to worry about missions, brother. As long as you're by my side, any mission is a piece of cake."
It's clear that with such a powerful source of purple energy as Wu Er, Lao Dashu has become more confident.
"As long as I don't deliberately seek death, I'll definitely be fine this time! I probably won't even get hurt!"
Lauda raised his head and confidently uttered those words.
After hearing this, Wu Er thought to himself: How did this guy get so cocky? Wasn't what he just said just setting a flag for himself?
Lauda Tree was completely unaware that he had set a flag for himself, and instead arrived in the capital of this mortal kingdom in high spirits.
"We've arrived. According to the temple's officials, there are evil cultivators with Foundation Establishment cultivation causing trouble here, and they've killed quite a few people."
Looking at the capital, Lauda said this.
Wu Er then asked, "So, your mission this time is to eliminate this evil cultivator?"
“That’s how it is,” Lauda responded.
Upon learning of the mission, Wu Er glanced at Lao Dashu again.
Lao Dashu has good aptitude. After entering Pengshan Sect, he received more resources and his cultivation has now reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
Sending Foundation Establishment stage disciples to fight against Foundation Establishment stage evil cultivators?
Although it's somewhat dangerous, it sounds quite reasonable.
But even with all those dangers, why is Lauda Tree always so unlucky and looks so defeated?
"Brother, let's go into the capital first and exchange intelligence with those royal retainers."
After saying that, Lao Dashu led Wu Er into the capital and headed straight for the palace.
The palace is an important place, and there are some minor cultivators inside, most of whom are at the Qi Refining stage.
These minor cultivators, whether due to their aptitude or their desire for worldly power, became servants to mortal emperors, occasionally dealing with minor demons and monsters.
After arriving at the palace, Wu Er unleashed his divine sense and saw the entire imperial city clearly.
After all, if there were only one Foundation Establishment evil cultivator, Lauda Tree wouldn't have been plagued by bad luck.
When the entire capital city was enveloped in the mist, Wu Er noticed something was wrong.
