Chapter 302 mission completed, rewards received.
Master Chongyue turned and glared fiercely at Ji Xinghan.
He looked at Yingyue: "With Luye around, you only talk to him. I try my best to please him, but you won't even glance at me."
Ji Xinghan: "You're just a junior apprentice, why are you competing with your boss for his favor? Don't you have any sense of hierarchy?"
Ji Xinghan probably knew that in this world, an apprentice of a master alchemist was just a lowly worker, and it was incredibly difficult for an apprentice to cultivate to a high level. The two were worlds apart in status.
Otherwise, Master Chongyue wouldn't have been secretly ridiculed by so many people.
Master Chongyue glared at Ji Xinghan again.
Lady Yingyue said in a trembling voice, "So, the argument in the Heartless Forest, and Lu Ye seeing me with you, were all staged by the fake mannequins you made?"
Master Chongyue shrugged indifferently: "Yes, didn't you already know?"
Lady Yingyue turned pale with anger: "Luye and I are your saviors!"
Master Chongyue roared, "Are you done talking? If you don't save me, someone else might. It's just a few lives, do you expect me to repay you for the rest of my life? Haven't I been lying to you for over 20 years?"
What a scoundrel!
Ji Xinghan was furious.
Lu Ye walked over: "Yingyue, don't waste your breath on him!"
Ji Xinghan: "Yes, kill him!"
Master Chongyue raised his head and looked pitifully at Madam Yingyue: "Yue'er, after all these years, don't you have any feelings for me at all?"
He moved his arms: "Look, now that my arms and legs are broken, you won't shed a single tear for me?"
Lady Yingyue remained silent for a moment, then turned to Luye and said, "You decide!"
Ji Xinghan quickly signaled to Lu Ye to kill Chong Yue!
A flash of cold light, and a dagger appeared in Lu Ye's hand.
Chongyue was shocked: "Yue'er, you won't even kill small animals. We've been husband and wife for a long time, how can you be so heartless..."
Lady Yingyue turned her back to him and remained silent.
Luye drew ever closer.
Master Chongyue rolled onto the ground, wriggling backward while shouting for Yingyue to save him.
Yingyue remained motionless.
Master Chongyue stopped and sneered, "Yingyue, I shouldn't have felt any pity for you. Neither of you will get away with this!"
With a flash of light, he disappeared.
Ji Xinghan stamped his feet and pounded his chest. It was over; he had finally gotten away!
Seeing Ji Xinghan's regretful expression, Madam Yingyue said, "His current identity is that of a master alchemist. If we kill him, we'll be in trouble."
Lu Ye turned around and said softly, "I was afraid you wouldn't be able to bear it..."
Lady Yingyue, her cheeks puffed out and her face slightly flushed, said angrily, "What do I have to be reluctant about? I...I clearly..."
The two stood facing each other, their eyes locked.
Remembering his mission, Ji Xinghan immediately said, "Yingyue, Luye, I have something to attend to, so I'll take my leave now and come back to find you later!"
She picked up the feigning-death Gongsun Ban and quickly left the courtyard.
When they were about two or three hundred meters outside the courtyard, Ji Xinghan threw Gongsun Ban aside and said, "Tell me, what bad thing have you done?"
Gongsun Ban flinched slightly: "No, it was Master Chongyue who instructed me to keep an eye on Lu Ye and prevent him from coming over."
Ji Xinghan snorted: "That's all?"
Gongsun Ban's eyes flickered: "He also went to the alchemy conference and tricked Lu Ye once."
Ji Xinghan thought about it and realized that it was no wonder that when she first met Lu Ye and mentioned Lady Yingyue, Lu Ye said, "You're lying to me too." It seemed that Gongsun Ban knew she would go to see Lu Ye, so he went to see her in advance.
Her aim was to deceive Kano and make him unable to believe her.
What a wicked thing!
Fortunately, Kano was devoted to her!
Just as Ji Xinghan was about to ask something, an announcement suddenly rang out:
[Congratulations to Ji Xinghan for completing the entire region's quest - Lady Yingyue!]
[Congratulations to Jian Lin, Jin Baiwan, Song Zhuo, Ge Xiaochuan, Luo Mingxin, Lu Gan, Jiang Lingyue, Han Xiaotian... for completing the task!]
[Complete Option B: Find Madam's first love, Kano, and reconcile the two!]
[Task Rewards:]
1. Ji Xinghan gains +3 to Constitution, +3 to Strength, and +3 to Agility;
2. Gain the favor of Master Luye and Master Yingyue, and obtain Master Yingyue's jade stone; you can contact them at any time.
3. Positioning beads x2;
4. Card Set x1!
[Jian Lin, Jin Baiwan, and others receive the following rewards: Constitution +1, Strength +1, Agility +1; and one Grade A gas mask!]
The moment the announcement was released, the chat channel erupted in excitement:
"Mission accomplished? Oh, it was in direction B? I never expected that!"
"Huh? How did Lu Ye suddenly appear? What should we do, Master Chongyue? Has he been outmaneuvered?"
"Ji Xinghan is amazing! He actually completed such a difficult task. Wow, the rewards are so plentiful, I'm drooling!"
"Hahaha, hahaha, allow me to laugh out loud three times. I saw Ji Xinghan choose mission B, so I followed suit. Then I traveled around, ate and drank, and guess what? Now all my attributes are +1. Wouldn't you call that an easy win?"
"I also chose B, I'm so happy, haha!"
"I hate it! I wanted to choose the same option as Boss Ji, but I thought the task was too difficult and impossible to complete, so I chose option A. Ugh, why was I so stupid!"
The chat channel was bustling with activity. A few players who followed Ji Xinghan and chose task B benefited from this, gaining 3 attribute points for free without doing anything.
Player attributes are very difficult to increase, so now that this windfall has fallen from the sky, they are overjoyed.
The channel was filled with jubilation.
Inside the arson squad, everyone was excitedly discussing the incident.
Jian Lin: "Haha, I added attribute points, I'm so happy!"
Jiang Lingyue: "Most of the people in our gang have added attribute points, and they have all followed my lead and chosen the quest direction B!"
Han Xiaotian: "Hehe, that's right, those who didn't listen are regretting it now!"
Lu Gan: "I have to thank Ji Xinghan for this."
Luo Mingxin: "That's right, we don't have to do anything, we just get the reward. Hey, that Grade A protective mask is pretty good, it can protect against most viruses!"
Song Zhuo: "Hmm, Ji Xinghan's reward is really good. I heard that the rewards in other districts are only about half of this."
Jian Lin: "Hmph, they completed the task through the efforts of many people. Ours is different; only Xiao Han put in the effort. Hehe, we won without lifting a finger!"
Jin Baiwan: "I've heard about it too. They all completed mission A!"
Ji Xinghan was looking at the rewards he had received.
Her attribute values have increased again!
ID: hxa0
Name: Ji Xinghan
Age: 22
Strength: 27
Physical condition: 27
Agility: 25
Occupation: None
Skill: King of Luck (I'm the most dazzling in the entire region, the strongest in the world, I am the invincible little tyrant of luck!)...
She was very satisfied and felt full of energy!
She then looked at the other rewards she had received.
[Location Bead: Place a location bead on another player to pinpoint their location at any time!]
Ji Xinghan was surprised; it could be done like this.
She thought it was the same as a positioning ring, but this one is even better!
She placed the positioning bead in place and then opened the card set.
There are eight cards inside, all of which are high-level and rare: Advanced Clairvoyance x2, Advanced Obedience x2, Advanced Sound Location x1, Card Upgrade Card...
Ji Xinghan beamed with joy. These eight cards were truly remarkable; each one was incredibly valuable and extremely difficult to acquire.
She packed everything away, then suddenly paused.
She saw the pills that Lady Yingyue had given her when she was weak—pills that Lady Yingyue had temporarily entrusted to her for safekeeping.
She didn't know what use it was.
...
Ji Xinghan's heart sank. Madam Yingyue was clearly under the influence of Master Chongyue's drug, so she shouldn't remember Luye!
Why didn't she forget?
