Believe It Or Not, I Already Caught You

CH 105.1

S-Class Mission

Fearing changes due to any delay, after coming down from Qingmang Mountain, the bigwigs pulled out their phones and started contacting people who could help.

“Junior Brother Ku Hai, come to Qingmang Mountain. Come tomorrow. Don’t you know how to book tickets? Just find any disciples of the 18th generation, they all graduated from college.”

“Master Mao, can you come to Qingmang Mountain? What’s the matter? Speak up.”

“Fellow Daoist Liang, can you come to Qingmang Mountain? We have something to discuss.”

After the three bigwigs finished their phone calls, their gloomy faces didn’t ease much. They called those people just in case, but the best outcome, of course, was for their hopes that the drought demon wouldn’t wake up.

“Are you done with your phone call? Let’s eat if you are. The food is getting cold.” While the others were on the phone, Elder Wu was already half full.

“Let’s eat for now.” As the host, Shen Qingzhu took the lead in lifting the chopsticks and beckoned the two masters to eat.

Yan Chongming clipped a dish, looked at Elder Yan who was eating happily across the table, and couldn’t help but ask: “Have you informed your disciple?”

Elder Wu had no time to speak, so he could only shake his head.

“Fellow Daoist Wu, the rest of our fellow Daoists will gather at Qingmang Mountain tomorrow.” Shen Qingzhu said, “Why don’t you let the disciple come over tomorrow?”

“That’s right. We haven’t seen your apprentice’s cultivation level yet. It’s still a question whether we can support the Nine Cycle Profound Gate Array. Let her come earlier, so we can test her cultivation level in advance. If we can’t, we’ll find another way,” said Yan Chongming.

Shen Qingzhu and Master Ci Hai also thought that Yan Chongming’s proposal was reasonable, so they echoed with a nod.

“Do you have other suitable candidates?” Elder Wu looked at them askance.

The three frowned and did not speak. If they still had suitable candidates, they wouldn’t have risked agreeing to let Elder Wu’s apprentice come over.

Although they all had to admit that Wu Li’s cultivation level was the highest among them, even if his apprentice was more gifted, her cultivation time was still short after all. Hence, they were more or less uneasy.

“It’s not that I’m not making the call. I’m just afraid that she’ll be unwilling to come over,” Elder Wu explained helplessly.

“Why is your disciple unwilling to come?” Grand Master Ci Hai asked in confusion.

“My apprentice is money-loving. She never does anything for free.” Elder Wu said bitterly, “Even if I am her master, there is personal consideration to talk about.”

Why did they all feel that this was really in line with the style of the Luoshan Sect?

“Is it the tradition of your Luoshan Sect to see money?” Yan Chongming couldn’t help but comment sarcastically.

“Don’t you get paid for helping people catch zombies?” Elder Wu returned his dislike on the spot.

“You..” Yan Chongming was angered, but his eloquence was no match against Elder Wu.

“Alright, money is not a problem. Let your disciple come over.” At present, a huge disaster was at stake, so any problem that could be solved with money wasn’t a problem.

“Then you go on the Metaphysics Network and post a mission. Set a higher bonus, and she will definitely take it.” Elder Wu inwardly praised his wit. Posting it on the Metaphysics Network would eliminate any chances of the others reneging on their agreement.

Although Elder Wu would help with the Qingmang Mountain affairs whether there was money or not, why not take the money that could be taken? Anyway, it would all be used to build roads and to improve the people’s livelihood.

Shen Qingzhu had a disciple working in the Metaphysics Network. After hearing Elder Wu’s suggestion, Shen Qingzhu immediately made a phone call to his disciple and asked him to post an S-Class mission on the website.

Elder Wu took advantage of him making a phone call and stealthily sentChen Yu a message: (An S-leve mission will be updated on the Metaphysics Network in a moment. Your call next.)

Chen Yu was in the evening study when she received this message. She curiously opened the Metaphysics website, and when she saw the S-Class mission that had just been updated and pinned to the top, she oohed and aahed and stood up from her seat. She then ran outside excitedly under the astonished gaze of the class.

“Third Brother, I can go to Qingmang Mountain.” As soon as Chen Yu left the classroom, she couldn’t wait to call Lou Ming.

Lou Ming thought Chen Yu hadn’t given up and wanted to go to Qingmang mountain alone. He was moved, but also worried. “Shishi, I know you want to go to Qingmang Mountain, but didn’t you promise me to wait for Master Mao to find out the reason?”

“No, ah. I’m not going to go there secretly. I can go openly and honestly.” Thinking of the mission she just saw, Chen Yu’s eyes glowed with excitement. “The Metaphysics Network released an S-Class mission about Qingmang Mountain just now. The bonus is 50 million.”

Lou Ming was stunned. How could there be such a coincidence that a mission to Qingmang Mountain was released at this time?

“I have taken the mission, so I can not only go to Qingmang Mountain honestly and openly, but also can make money. It’s a fortune. It’s as much as what I earned in a whole year last year.” Eighteen long years had passed, and the old man was finally reliable for a moment. He even found her such a two-pronged errand.

When Lou Ming heard this, he? felt that things could not be so coincidental. Thus, he asked uneasily, “What is the task about?”

“It didn’t specify. It only requires a Celestial Master with a high cultivation level,” Chen Yu replied.

Lou Ming’s hunch that something was wrong intensified: “There is no specific information about the mission, but the bonus is so high. Shishi, you should not just take it.”

“It’s okay, it’s the Old.. Grandpa who told me to take it, ah.”

“Elder Wu?” When Lou Ming heard that it was Elder Wu who told Chen Yu to take it, he was a little confused. Those that could be posted as S-Rank missions on the Metaphysics website must be very dangerous missions, but there was no way that Elder Wu would let Shishi take the risk.

“Third Brother, I will go to Qingmang Mountain tomorrow. Whether the mission is successful or not, I will definitely bring back the spiritual artifact,” Chen Yu said with conviction.

“Toot-toot!”

A beep suddenly interrupted the phone call. Lou Ming glanced at it and said to Chen Yu, “Shishi, Master Mao called me. Let’s talk later.”
