"I don't know. Jun Wunian sighed, "I learned that this time, the head of the Song family recruited mages to participate in this escort mission, and the Song family was even more fully dispatched, and all the mages above the fortieth rank were personally led by the young family master Song Wenzhi and the eldest lady Song Shilin, and there were even seventy-second order masters in charge. This mission is beyond our capabilities. ”

"Seventy-second order!" Meng Qin'er couldn't help but exclaim.

"Yes, even the hired mercenaries this time are extraordinary, and the captain of the mercenary team I am in is a seventy-order master. So we spread things out and made them think that the Holy Academy had only sent four people, so that the task that fell on us would be less stressful, and our safety factor would be increased accordingly. Jun Wunian explained.

"Wu Nian is right. Shi Zhuoye also pondered, "I heard that this time the Song family recruited a mage above the fiftyth rank to carry out this escort mission, but I think it is better for me to mix into the casual cultivation team." Lan Sheng took Qin'er and Yi Xiao to represent the Holy Academy, so that the head of the Song family would definitely protect Lan Sheng and them when he saw that it was two girls and a therapist, and I and Wunian were mixed in the crowd, which was more low-key, and it could also be safer, which would help us slowly find out the ultimate purpose of their trip. ”

"I think it's feasible-" Jun Wunian nodded, "We can pretend not to know each other, secretly exchange information with each other, and respond to each other." But you have to be careful in the scorching night, casual cultivation is easy to be used as cannon fodder-"

Shi Zhuoye smiled: "It's okay, I know it in my heart." ”

"Hmm-" Jun Wunian didn't say much. Shi Zhuoye is a man who crawled out of hell, and his ability to survive is stronger than everyone else.

"Lan Sheng, then it's decided, tonight, you and Qin'er Yixiao will go directly to the Song family. Jun Wunian instructed Lan Sheng, "Remember, don't show all your strength, but you can't let the Song family see our Holy Academy clearly, let the Song family think that you are geniuses, but you are too young to help this mission." ”

Lan Sheng nodded.

On the second day, Lan Sheng took Qin'er and Yi Xiao to Song's house, and soon came back, and when he came back, his face seemed a little embarrassed.

"When we went, the head of the Song family came out to greet us in person, but when he saw that there were only three of us, he seemed to be a lot less enthusiastic all of a sudden, and he simply asked a few words and left. Meng Qin'er said with a snicker.

Lan Sheng got down to business: "At 6 o'clock tonight, all the mages who participated in this mission gathered at the Song family to participate in this mission. It is said that the Song family is going to hold a pledge meeting-"

"So solemn?"

"Yes, this mission seems to be about a mission from 10,000 years ago. Lan Sheng said lightly

"Ten thousand years ago?" Jun Wunian couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, ten thousand years—is that the era of Shura?

"Tonight is the oath meeting, I don't know what happened to the scorching night, whether I have mixed into the casual cultivation. Chen Yixiao frowned and said, "It is said that there are only 10 people in the casual cultivation to challenge in the form of a ring, and the Song family has set up 10 rings in front of the door, and the 10 people who have successfully defended the ring can go together to escort this thing at 5 o'clock this afternoon." ”

"It's okay, Scorching Night's strength is very strong, and he will definitely be able to hold a ring. Jun Wunian said, not seeming to be worried about Shi Zhuoye.

"There are a lot of people at this Song family oath meeting, remember, we have to pretend not to know each other and don't show flaws. ”

"Okay—"

In order to prevent the relationship between Jun Wunian and Lan Sheng and the others from being discovered, several people acted separately.

Jun Wunian went to the market and bought a lot of things one after another. Although Zhan Hongyue had said that he would prepare the necessary items for going out this time, Jun Wunian felt that it was better to prepare more for himself similar to some vital wound medicine food.

In this assessment competition of the academy, the prizes for the first place were all elemental vessels that were useful for improving one's cultivation or improving one's combat power.

And Jun Wunian is a little different - what Jun Wunian obtained was a thunder-based ball of light, this thunder-based ball of light contained a strong power of the thunder element, and Jun Wunian could vaguely feel its extraordinary. After dripping blood and recognizing the master, Jun Wunian realized that he had underestimated this purple ball of light, the name of this thunder elemental vessel was called "Thunder Bead", which could increase the power of the thunder element by fifty percent, ignoring the level of cultivation, and most importantly, it also had a part of its own space element.

This part of the space element gives it another function, the storage function, but it can only store dead things, not living things. But that's enough, the location of this mission is a desert, water and food are very scarce, and you can store a little more in the Thundering Beads.

However, this kind of storage utensils are rare, although Lei Mingzhu has already recognized the owner, but in order to prevent being looked down upon, Jun Wunian still chooses to be careful and does not use its storage function in front of people.

After buying a full bottle of food and water, Jun Wunian went to a corner where no one was and put his things into the thundering beads.

5 points. The ring at the door of Song's house has ended, and everything has settled.

Jun Wunian walked into the Song family, where the door was wide open, and saw Shi Zhuoye in the loose cultivation, with a sense of arrogance that others did not have, and he was very conspicuous in the crowd.

Jun Wunian didn't know that he was actually very conspicuous, with a sword behind his back and a white and sacred flower lying on his shoulder.

Outside the courtyard there was an attic with two figures standing on the balcony of the attic.

"Brother—are these the mages who participated in the escort this time? "A girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old leaned on the railing and looked bored at the bustling crowd below.

"There really isn't anything special about these people, but—" The young man next to him looked down at the crowd below with a calm look on his face, and his gaze fell on a few people.

These two people are Song Wenzhi, the young head of the Song family, and Song Shilin, the eldest lady of the Song family.

"Brother, do you think there are talents here?" Song Shilin glanced at the crowd below and pursed his lips, "I think it's just so-so." ”

"In today's noon casual cultivation, a young mage from the dark department took the stage to challenge, and he defeated dozens of challengers with a single person in a very domineering manner. Song Wenzhi said.

"I've also heard that he is said to be a handsome young man who is cold and arrogant, and he should be a little younger than his brother, but he has already climbed the elemental ladder above fifty steps. Song Shilin smiled, with a look of anticipation in her eyes, "It's a pity that I went to see the captain of the mercenary team that protected me this time at noon, otherwise I would have been able to see it." What's that man's name?"

"He said his name was Burning Night, but I felt it was just his name and he was supposed to be hiding his last name. ”
