Seeing that everyone in Xiao Feng's group had smiling faces, Feng Luo and Lu Xue'er understood that their mission must be very simple.
Feng Luo walked up to them, glanced at them, and asked, "What tasks did you get? Why are you so happy?"
One of the disciples in the group got too excited and blurted out, "Let's go to Zili Kingdom and kill a low-level demon beast."
When Feng Luo learned that their mission was so simple, he looked at Xiao Feng with a mocking expression and said, "As expected of the sect leader's personal disciple, even your mission is simpler."
The two people around him and Xiao Feng immediately understood the sarcasm in his words and ignored them.
He waved to his disciples and said, "I'll give you the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Get ready as soon as possible and gather at the mountain gate."
The disciples exchanged glances and hurried over to their respective rooms.
Although their task was relatively simple, they still needed some time to get there.
Only Shen Qingchen stood beside Xiao Feng with her bundle in hand, her face calm and indifferent, seemingly unconcerned about the mission.
Worried that his disciple might harbor resentment, those around him took out all the money they could get their hands on.
When Feng Luo and Lu Xue'er saw Xiao Feng and his companion standing at the mountain gate, they walked up to them and sneered, "Congratulations on getting a bargain."
The other disciples mocked, "Who knows if the sect leader gave him special instruction? After all, our sect leader only has one personal disciple."
Hearing them openly mock Xiao Feng, Feng Luo couldn't help but say to them, "You can't say that. What if he won based on his own strength? After all..."
At this point, many disciples understood that Feng Luo was mocking Xiao Feng for using pills during the assessment.
Just then, many disciples from the group returned to Xiao Feng and rejoined the group.
Feng Luo walked to his side and whispered, "If you feel you can't complete the task, you can choose to give us your task, and we'll do it for you."
Hearing Feng Luo mock him with such words, Lu Xue'er sneered: "That's right, otherwise it would be too embarrassing for our Qing Sect's direct disciples to fail to complete the mission."
Seeing that the two of them showed him no respect whatsoever, Xiao Feng snorted coldly: "With this time, I suggest you take a closer look at your own missions."
Before the two could respond, Xiao Feng continued, "Feng Luo openly lost to me on the assessment stage back then. I couldn't do it, so you don't have the qualifications."
Lu Xue'er was about to say more when he pointed at her and said, "You can't even distinguish between medicinal herbs and dregs. I really don't know how you refine pills."
The effects of the Spirit-Boosting Pill are already evident to all, and Lu Xue'er had no chance to refute it even if she wanted to.
The disciples looked at Xiao Feng and Lu Xue'er with surprise, wondering why they didn't argue back.
Xiao Feng looked at the two of them without saying a word, then greeted the other disciples, "We're leaving."
A snort ripped through the crowd: "Yeah, let's get going on our mission. Ignore them, they're just bullies among themselves."
Feng Luo and Lu Xue'er exchanged a glance, their faces ashen as they watched them leave.
Although there weren't many powerful figures around, he had the ability to summon Qingzong disciples for help, putting the two of them at a disadvantage.
At this moment, Xiao Feng had already led his team to the foot of the mountain.
The sect leader included a map in the scroll, so they only needed to follow the map to find the location of Zi Li Kingdom.
Suddenly, someone walked up to Xiao Feng and pointed ahead with their chin: "Hey buddy, look ahead, it looks like someone's planning to go up the mountain gate."
Xiao Feng glanced at the people in front of him and noticed that each of them was wearing clothes from the Zi Li Kingdom.
In an instant, Xiao Feng recognized their identities and walked up to them: "Are you from Zi Li Kingdom?"
The group exchanged glances and nodded. "Yes, we are all from the Zi Li Kingdom. You could not possibly be...?"
They were all wearing the clothes of Qingzong disciples, so they could recognize Xiao Feng's identity at a glance.
Xiao Feng nodded repeatedly as he saw their gazes fixed on him: "We received a mission from the sect leader to help you clear out low-level demonic beasts."
When they learned that Xiao Feng was the one who cleared away the low-level demonic beasts for them, they hurriedly walked up to them: "We've finally waited for you! Come with us."
They originally came from Zili Kingdom, so following them will definitely get us there.
Xiao Feng turned around and glanced at the disciples behind him: "Come with me, we are going to Zi Li Kingdom now, don't let your guard down."
Once they leave the Qingzong territory, all of them could face mortal danger.
Regardless, this is the first time he has led a team away from Qingzong, and he certainly cannot allow any mishaps to occur to the team members.
The disciples exchanged glances and followed closely behind them, their faces serious.
Two hours later, they had already embarked on their journey to the Kingdom of Zili.
Seeing that they were focused on leading the way, Xiao Feng quickly walked up to them and asked, "Could you tell me about the situation in your Zi Li Kingdom?"
When they heard Xiao Feng ask them this question, they nodded repeatedly: "Of course, we're here to ask for your help, and we need to give you all this information."
The people from Zili Kingdom pondered for a moment and then explained in detail: "Our Zili Kingdom is frequently attacked, and each time we are able to arrive at the scene as quickly as possible."
Upon learning that they had rushed to the scene to investigate, Xiao Feng gave them a serious look and asked, "How is it?"
The people of Zi Li Kingdom shook their heads with a wry smile: "No one has ever seen what that monster looks like, and we haven't even encountered it."
No matter what method they used to set a trap, the monster seemed to have anticipated it, never giving them a chance to catch it.
Hearing them describe the monster in that way, someone couldn't help but huddle up to Xiao Feng and ask, "Dude, can you tell what kind of monster that is?"
Xiao Feng glanced subconsciously in Shen Qingchen's direction and shook his head: "Judging from their description, that monster must be very fast."
With just a few cultivators at the second and third tiers, they shouldn't be able to capture that monster.
However, Xiao Feng did not draw a conclusion, since listening to only their side of the story would be useless.
Since Zili Kingdom was quite far from them, they needed to find a place to rest along the way.
The people from Zili Kingdom glanced back at them and pointed to the city ahead: "We'll stay up there for the night, and we should reach Zili Kingdom tomorrow."
