"Temporary task: Correction of the laws. Heaven and earth have laws, but even the most meticulous plans can have oversights. For some people, is this a blessing or a curse?"
Task timeframe: Two months
Mission Location: Capital City of the Great Ye Kingdom
Task Reward: Unknown
The last time I received a temporary assignment, it was from Xiao Chen.
Looking at the mission interface, An Ge couldn't help but complain, "Why is this mission so mysterious?"
Having completed so many tasks, this is the first time I've encountered a task with an unknown objective and reward, but a marked location.
Fortunately, the progress changes after each mission involves related events; otherwise, no one would be able to take action against Ange.
"It seems I still need to make a trip to the capital myself."
Ange has some obsessive-compulsive tendencies; even when playing games, she likes to complete all the map missions.
Just as An Ge was discussing with everyone about replacing Lu Yan, and she and Hu Jiu went over, Liu Tingxue, whom they hadn't seen for many days, returned.
Now she has opened a clinic in Huaixi City. Thanks to her superb medical skills, even though she is still a bit eccentric, people still flock to her for treatment.
It's worth mentioning that Yang Shouyi has also become a member of the medical clinic. An Ge thought, "Is this the allure of the strong?"
"Your clinic is so busy, how come you have time to come back?"
"An Xiaoge, I miss you!" Seeing An Ge's glance, Liu Tingxue pouted unhappily, "Okay, actually it's Yang Shouyi. He seems to have news that the little dwarf was assassinated."
An Ge ignored the words "dwarf" and asked Yang Shouyi about the situation.
Yang Shouyi was clearly still processing the information that "that bad-tempered Miss Liu was actually a deity" and "I actually met a deity before." Hearing An Ge's question, he quickly composed himself.
"If the information is correct, this person may be Jian Xiong from Divine Sword Valley. Jian Xiong is treacherous and ruthless, and he has a very high opinion of himself. Because of the rules of Divine Sword Valley, he has never been able to leave the valley. But recently I found traces of him in Huaixi City."
"Divine Sword Valley? What a coincidence, there's someone from Divine Sword Valley at the inn."
When Yang Shouyi heard An Ge mention Jian Shaotian's name, his eyes widened. "Jian Shaotian is an upright person and should not have any ill intentions."
An Ge nodded. If there were any malicious intent, the inn would have issued a warning long ago.
Unless the other party is as cunning and calculating as Gu Wen in the past, but Gu Wen is a rare exception. If just anyone can evade the inn's detection, An Ge can only say that the inn's absolute defenses are incredibly weak.
Even so, An Ge still went to Jian Shaotian to inquire about the situation.
"Um."
"Find him."
"Traitor, kill him."
Ange...
"I think you're a bit unworthy of your name."
Ignoring Jian Shaotian's puzzled expression, An Ge painstakingly pieced together the truth from his fragmented words.
Jian Xiong is likely a traitor to Divine Sword Valley, and Jian Shaotian came here to eliminate him. Hearing about the arena, he immediately went inside.
An Ge was a bit of a headache. Divine Sword Valley was definitely not the only reclusive sect to emerge from seclusion. There might be even more grandmasters at the inn in the future.
For this reason, the original plan to have Hu Jiu accompany her to the capital had to be changed. With Hu Jiu staying at the inn, she and Lu Yan secretly followed the main group under Feng Jinghan's arrangement.
For ease of movement, Hogg specially crafted a gender-altering device for her. After Ange put it on, she instantly transformed into a handsome young man.
The downside is also obvious: she can no longer use illusions to reduce her presence. Therefore, once she entered the crowd, An Ge was pursued by many women, which terrified her.
Lu Yan complained about this a lot, but the equipment's ability to change gender is time-limited. For at least the past month, An Ge has had to appear in this form.
An Ge sat in the car, listening to Lu Yan's complaints all the way, and rolled her eyes. "I'm also very troubled. I can't even have fun like this."
"Yes, yes, my young master. When you say that, could you please put down that smirk?"
The store manager and Hu Jiu are truly a couple, both secretly passionate.
"Ahem!" An Ge coughed to cover her laughter. "I have a feeling there will be dangers on the way back to Beijing, so please be careful."
When the topic of missions came up, Lu Yan became serious.
"Don't worry, I'm not as good as Hu Jiu at managing the inn, but when it comes to martial arts..."
"You're not as good as him either."
Lu Yan: "...Yes, although I'm not as good as him, I'm still the second-in-command in terms of martial arts at the inn, okay?"
The two bickered all the way, which made the journey less boring.
"The last town in Prince Duan's fiefdom is just ahead. They should be preparing to rest. Let's go over there."
"Yes, we'll be leaving the Prince of Duan's fiefdom soon. The other side might make a move soon, so we need to be careful."
As for why they would take action on Feng Jinghan's territory, it was naturally to create trouble for Da Jinku.
Because Emperor Fengzhao did not want to disturb too many people, the place where everyone rested was just an ordinary inn, which made things convenient for An Ge and her companion.
In any case, even if it's an inn, a grandmaster can come and go as he pleases.
Emperor Feng Zhao got out of the carriage and stretched. "Han'er, Chi'er, what's wrong with you two? You seem a bit dazed the whole way here."
Ever since leaving the inn, Feng Jinghan hadn't relaxed. Hearing Emperor Feng Zhao's question, he looked at Feng Jingchi with some surprise, "Isn't your son a little reluctant to leave?"
"Well, it's understandable that you're reluctant to leave. Who knows when you'll be able to go back to the inn again."
Those around were startled by Emperor Feng Zhao's words. Did His Majesty's words have some hidden meaning?
Feng Jingchi was flustered and did not understand the meaning behind Feng Zhaodi's words, "Son, your son is also reluctant to part with you."
Seeing Feng Jingchi's submissive demeanor, Emperor Feng Zhao was furious. "Hmph." He had truly been blinded by greed before, actually believing that Prince Kang had the ability to succeed to the throne.
After Emperor Feng Zhao left, Feng Jinghan narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Judging from Third Brother's expression, it seems he has something else on his mind?"
"Heh, what I'm thinking is none of your business!" With that, he strode into the inn, showing no regard for brotherhood whatsoever.
Upon seeing the approaching carriage, Feng Jinghan's tense expression relaxed. He and An Ge exchanged a glance and left as if nothing had happened.
The innkeeper was overjoyed that so many people had suddenly arrived at the small inn.
Because it's quite far from Huaixi City, the inns here clearly retain their local flavor, with only a few resembling the Xianyuan Inn. For An Ge, who's used to modern hotels, it offers a unique experience.
Of course, this only applies to An Ge; Lu Yan, who wasn't used to it, complained quite a bit.
An Ge felt that if it weren't for Lu Yan's willingness to pay, the waiter might have kicked them out.
Pointing fingers and making comments on someone else's turf, Lu Yan really knows how to stir up trouble.
