Chapter 284: The Pursuit Is Fruitless

If Zheng Fang was still ignorant when he took on this death task, then when he handed over this task, he had his own thoughts in his heart, and he wanted to see if Tro Yi was the guy who issued the task, then now that the task publisher has died, how can the sect ensure the fulfillment of the task reward? Secondly, if the person who issued the task is someone else, then he would like to see this venerable god, and through this guy, he will find a dark line buried by the forces of the Bixiao Hall and the Shenxing Sect in the Star Picking Sect.

Back to the sect, the reason why Zheng Fang didn't tell Ni Sheng and the ancestor about it was that he didn't want to startle the snake on the one hand, on the other hand, he suffered a lot of losses because of this task, and what he thought in his heart was to dig out the guys who were dealing with him in secret, once he handed over the initiative to Ni Sheng and the old ancestor, it would be difficult for him to use too many means.

In the Throttling Pavilion, he didn't find the waiter who guided him to the Open Source Pavilion, Zheng Fang already had a bad premonition, but he still didn't give up, and at this moment, he was even more dumbfounded when he saw that the waiter of the Open Source Pavilion had simply completed the handover of the task.

"Hey, the reward for this quest is a chance to keep me alive, this ...... What is this?" Zheng Fang asked, holding the sect token returned by the attendant in his hand.

"Senior brother doesn't know, the promise of this task reward has been planted in the divine treasure of the task publisher, senior brother just rest assured, if the senior brother is really dead, the person who issued the task will definitely be punished heavily. The waiter explained to Zheng Fang with a smile.

"Yes...... If the person who posted the task is dead, I ...... Didn't you do this task in vain?" Zheng Fang frowned, feeling bad in his heart.

"Where is there such a coincidence? Being able to issue a task to the senior brother to ensure that the senior brother does not die, at least it is also the power of the three realms and the four realms, where can it be said that death is dead? Moreover, even if the person who issued the task dies, the senior brother completes the task, and the contract in the Shenzang is self-dissolved, it is not in vain. The waiter still answered Zheng Fang's question tepidly.

"Yes...... Can I know who is issuing the task?" Zheng Fang secretly wondered, what kind of bullshit logic, is it good for labor and management to die for this task, and now it is okay to solve the contract lightly? It's not that cheap.

"This ...... Please forgive me, the rules of the sect, no matter whether the task is completed or not, those who issue tasks and accept tasks cannot know each other's identities. Listening to Zheng Fang's request, the waiter had a look of embarrassment on his face.

"Why?" Zheng Fang really couldn't figure it out.

"Senior brother Mingjian, junior brother has not been in the Open Source Pavilion for a long time, and he doesn't understand the reason, but the rules of the sect have always been like this. The waiter still had a smile on his face, but his expression was noticeably stiffer.

Unable to say a reason with this little attendant, Zheng Fang shook his head, took back the sect token, turned around and walked out of the Open Source Pavilion, just out of the gate, only to feel a shock in his brain, the golden scroll suspended in his brain on the side of his spiritual power seedling turned into a little golden light in an instant, and it was submerged in the spiritual power seedling, and the young seedling became a little thicker when he saw it.

It turns out that the benefits of completing the task are this, and Zheng Fang somewhat understands the meaning of the contract self-interpretation that the waiter said. His spiritual strength has improved again, although it is a good thing, but he wanted to independently complete the matter of tracking down the traitors of the Star Picking Sect, but he encountered a setback again.

Should you hand over the matter to the old ancestor and Ni Sheng, or will you find a way to track it down yourself? Zheng Fang couldn't help but fall into deep thought as he saw the bustling crowd in front of the Open Source Pavilion, with a clear distinction between the left and right sides.

I am about to go back to the human world, and I may not have time to continue to investigate this matter, and I have been in my stomach, not only will this matter drag on, but it will also keep the old ancestor and Ni Sheng in the dark, so it is better to report this matter. But just reported it like this, and when he said what he wanted to do, Zheng Fang was very unwilling, and he still wanted to find out the traitor of the Star Picking Sect with his own hands. After thinking about it, after all, reason prevailed, and he decided to tell the ancestor about it, as for Ni Sheng, don't say it, the ancestor doesn't care about small things, maybe this matter can be put down, and he still has hope for a thorough investigation in the future.

Thinking about it like this, Zheng Fang realized that the arrangements that the old ancestor and Ni Sheng had made for their future were all asking Xinggu to cultivate well, and he would go back to the human world this time, and he might even go to participate in the World Magic Competition, in a short period of time, I am afraid that he will not be able to ask the Star Cave cultivation back, and I don't know what the old ancestor will say?

Thinking of the ancestor's attitude towards his return to the human world, Zheng Fang was very worried, and hurriedly summoned Xingqi to go to the Backward Valley to see the ancestor first.

As the ancestor of the Star Picking Sect, of course, it is not something that can be seen when you see it, Zheng Fang ran to the outside of the backward valley, but the backward waterfall could not be opened, so he had no choice but to get off the star, and begged at the mouth of the valley dripping and pleading, without begging a few times, he only felt a flower in front of him, and when it was clear again, his body had entered the backward valley, and the ancestor was sitting on the edge of the lake, sitting and fishing.

"Why did you come back not long after you left?" Old Ancestor Yingxing looked at the lake in front of him and asked lightly.

"Old Ancestor, the disciple just went to meet the classmates and teachers of Xiaoyue Valley, and I heard that the school is in a hurry to recruit me back, so I have come to say a leave to the old ancestor, and when I finish all the school affairs, I will go back to the Star Picking Sect, and ask the old ancestor to agree. Zheng Fang leaned down and kowtowed a few times to the old ancestor.

"Zheng Fang, what is your current mission, you won't forget it as soon as you turn around, right?" the old ancestor asked slowly.

Hearing that there was a lot of reproach in the old ancestor's tone, Zheng Fang suddenly fell even lower.

"Ancestor, the disciple embarked on the path of cultivation, all relying on the teaching of the school teacher and the help of the classmates, without them, the disciple is still nesting in Zhengjiawan, where will he come to this spiritual realm, the disciple knows that the current mission is to go all out to promote, however, the disciple does not dare to forget his roots, as long as the school has a call, the disciple must respond. Zheng Fang's mouth was on the ground, and he said it word by word.

"Don't you dare to forget your roots? As soon as you say this, I can't blame you anymore. The old ancestor smiled coldly, threw away the fishing rod, and slowly stood up.

"Since you have made up your mind that you don't cherish yourself, what do you want to tell me? โ€

This is the first time that Zheng Fang has lost his temper after meeting the old ancestor, and the great power is cold-spoken, but he is angry in his heart, and there is still a great power that unconsciously emanates, pressing Zheng Fang like earth, lying on the ground and unable to say a word.

The old ancestor stood there, frowning and looking at Zheng Fang who was lying on the ground for a long time, and finally shook his head, but his tone softened, and the pressure that enveloped Zheng Fang suddenly disappeared.

"Let's get out, go to the Star Sea Secret Realm to cultivate and then go, so as not to be hit by the first two hits, you will be given the result. โ€

"Thank you, Ancestor, the disciple has two treasures in his hand that he wants to dedicate to Ancestor. Although the old ancestor was displeased, but the concern in that words could not be concealed no matter what, the secret realm of the sea of stars according to what Ni Sheng said, how great the consumption is, Zheng Fang now as long as he leaves the Star Picking Sect, there is no absolutely safe place, and he also went against the wishes of the old ancestor, despite this, the old ancestor still let himself go to cultivate, it can be seen that the concern cannot be faked, Zheng Fang was grateful, and unconsciously wanted to take out the two rewards of the soul city that he had completed the task of tempering, originally he also planned to use it to exchange for some resources, it can be seen that the old ancestor made this gesture, Zheng Fang just wanted to make him happy, as for exchanging resources, it was a secondary matterใ€‚

"What treasure can you have?" the old ancestor was a little stunned.

took out the incarnation grass from the Qiankun bag, and took out his tempering token, and Zheng Fang presented it to the old ancestor.

"Hehe, what did you say to give me a baby? Are you going to ask the old ancestor to raise a beast pet and cultivate an incarnation for you?" The old ancestor swept his eyes, and he already understood what it was, not bad, but it all needed to be cultivated, the old ancestor couldn't help but be a little funny, this kid is a ghost and a ghost, he wants to be a coolie, but what did he say to give it to him, how could he covet these things of the disciples below.

"Ancestor, I really gave it to you sincerely, I don't have the resources to cultivate these two things, I was going to exchange some spirit stones with the sect to supplement the teachers and classmates of the school, but the ancestor cares about me so much, I Zheng Fang has nothing to repay, so I will dedicate this to the ancestor, although these things are not precious, but the ancestor has it, it is the sect, and it is more meaningful here than in me. Zheng Fang said.

Listening to Zheng Fang's words, the old ancestor was stunned, but he waved his hand slowly, and these two things fell back to Zheng Fang's side.

"You still have to keep these two things for yourself, compared to the Cloud Swallowing Beast, in fact, the incarnation grass is more suitable for you, cultivated long enough, and even messed up, it can be regarded as an extra life, you don't have time now, there will always be time in the future, and then cultivate it in the future, however, you must not underestimate the Cloud Swallowing Beast, there is no Guardian Spirit Beast of the Eight Sects of my Spirit Realm that can be compared with the Cloud Swallowing Beast, this kind of spirit beast is born close to the way of wind and rain, and the combat power of cultivation is amazing. The old ancestor said, still sending the token back. Since he wasn't asked to do that coolie, wouldn't he ask for his disciple's things, wouldn't it be a joke to say it.

"Old Ancestor, when I leave the Star Picking Sect, there is no place to be safe, these things are not needed for a short time, let's give them to the Old Ancestor, if I can't come back, it can be regarded as a thought. Zheng Fang lay on the ground and said from the bottom of his heart.

"Hmph, you still know that you may not be able to come back, in that case, what's wrong with Taoguang cultivating obscurity and concentrating on cultivation? I want to go back to the human world, I thought you were playing with your heart, relying on the current realm to go to the scenery of the human world. The old ancestor heard that Zheng Fang understood the current situation, but he still insisted on going his own way, and he couldn't help but get a little angry.
