Three people per group, one task per group!
The extra outer gate attendant remained in Wujiabao, ready to be dispatched at any time.
Coincidentally, he was on the same team as Fairy Linglong and Old Ancestor Green Bronze this time!
The Green Bronze Ancestor was the oldest and had the most experience in cultivating immortality, so he led Lu Xuan's group on their mission. Naturally, Fairy Linglong and Lu Xuan had no objections to this.
However, this mission is not simple!
[They are to travel thirty miles outside Wu Family Fortress to escort the majority of the spirit stones recently produced at a spirit mine back to Wu Family Fortress! There are approximately five thousand such stones! If they are blocked by demonic cultivators, they will remain at the spirit mine and hold their ground using the defensive formations, awaiting the intervention of the Wu family's Foundation Establishment ancestor.]
As far as Lu Xuan and the others knew.
That spirit mine is the most important source of spirit stones for Wujiabao, without exception.
But why would the Wu family patriarch entrust such an important matter to these three rogue cultivators who had just joined Wu Family Fortress seeking a chance to survive?
What exactly was going on behind the scenes? Lu Xuan had no idea.
As long as no Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators appear on this trip, escaping shouldn't be too much of a problem.
It is said that as long as they complete this task, the Wu family patriarch will reward the three of them with a [Small Yuan Pill] each. This is a high-grade pill for the late stage of Qi Refining that can break through the bottleneck of the minor realm of the late stage of Qi Refining. It is very precious and has a market price of at least two or three hundred spirit stones per pill.
This time, the Wu family patriarch really went all out.
However, Lu Xuan knew that this bottle of pills wouldn't be so easy to obtain.
The next day, Lu Xuan and his two companions set off.
Two late-stage Qi Refining cultivators from Wu Family Fort accompanied them, ostensibly to supervise them.
One of them was none other than Wu Ning'er, who knew the Fairy Linglong.
Another person who seemed to be a member of a collateral branch of the Wu family pursuing Wu Ning'er was named Xiao Qin. He was the adopted son of a direct descendant of the Wu family! Not a biological son of a member of the Wu family, so his status had always been low. However, the way he looked at Wu Ning'er was quite unusual.
During the journey, Wu Ning'er apologized to Fairy Linglong:
"Sister Linglong, it was a loss for the Dark Moon Sect that the elder didn't take a liking to you last time. I believe that a better cultivation sect will recognize your talent in the future, right, Sister Linglong..."
