Chapter 196 Harvest
I, the Demon King 2, sincerely present "Starting from the Border Army, Grinding to Become a Martial Emperor", exclusively published by Cola Novels!
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, as soon as Lu Yuan stepped out, he saw Meng Tong and Yao Yue already waiting outside. Upon seeing Lu Yuan, the latter greeted him with a smile: "Junior brother, let's set off then."
"Okay." Lu Yuan nodded, and then followed Meng Tong and the other woman to the place where they received the mission.
This is where the outer sect chooses their missions.
They are basically all people who can be dealt with at the Transcendent Realm.
The merit points awarded for each mission vary depending on the level of danger, ranging from as many as ten points to as few as four or five points.
Lu Yuan glanced at the list and found that the rare and precious materials needed for his Body Refinement Realm cultivation were worth about one hundred merit points.
In other words, even if he takes on the most difficult task, it will take him about ten attempts to redeem the reward.
However, Lu Yuan was not discouraged.
If the progress is fast, it should only take about ten days.
Next, we chose a task and set off.
The mission is to destroy the cave of a powerful demon in Baidang Mountain.
Inside was a demon of the Transcendent Realm, and several lesser demons.
On the way, Yao Yue hesitated and said, "Junior brother, since you've just started taking on missions, you could choose an easier one. This Azure Wolf Demon King is not someone to be trifled with. In the past, three groups of outer sect disciples took on this mission and all failed, and some even died."
She hadn't expected Lu Yuan to be so ruthless, specifically choosing to kill those who were powerful.
Although she knew Lu Yuan was strong, he had only just broken through to the Transcendent Realm, so she thought it was better to be cautious.
Lu Yuan slowly said, "Don't worry, Senior Sister, I have my own plans."
Hearing him say that, Yao Yue had no choice but to grit her teeth and follow him.
After they entered Baidang Mountain.
The thick, eerie mist made all three of them very wary.
Yao Yue wasn't lying; she was indeed quite familiar with this place.
After entering Baidang Mountain, we headed straight into the depths of the forest.
The three moved very quickly, and about an hour later they arrived at a cave dwelling.
The air here reeks of blood. Beneath a towering mountain peak lies a dark cave entrance, surrounded by vines and grasses, all stained with blood.
Lu Yuan could even clearly see the internal organs mixed in inside.
There was also dried blood plasma.
The dried bones lay scattered about.
Two minor demons at the Void Breaking Realm were patrolling outside the cave.
From deep within the cave, a powerful aura emanated, revealing itself to be the great demon, the Azure Wolf.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan did not hesitate. He raised his longbow and pulled the bowstring.
"Whoosh!"
He was incredibly fast, and with just two arrows, he pierced through the bodies of two demons in an instant.
The two women were speechless with astonishment.
A look of amazement appeared on her face. Even if they wanted to deal with a demon race member in the Void Breaking Realm, they would have to put in a lot of effort, but Lu Yuan dealt with it with just two arrows. He truly deserves to be called a genius.
Then, the other person quickly walked inside.
The commotion outside had clearly disturbed the demons inside.
"roar!"
With a roar.
Then they saw a demon that was as tall as a foot, with a human body and a wolf's head, walk out from inside.
A pair of gleaming green eyes, flashing with ferocity.
He was carrying a spiked club.
The bloodstains on the body had not yet dried, and three or five Void Breaking Demons followed behind.
Both Meng Tong and Yao Yue became somewhat nervous upon their arrival.
Although the latter had participated in many campaigns against the demon race, each time it involved more than ten people working together, with a powerful senior brother leading the team.
So it wasn't too difficult to fight.
But this time, there were only three of them, and the blue wolf in front of them looked like a formidable opponent.
Even if Lu Yuan could handle it.
However, the few lesser demons behind them were enough for Yaoyue and her companion to handle.
The fear on his face was almost undisguised.
Lu Yuan glanced back at them and said calmly, "You wait here, I'll be right back."
After saying that, he leaped into the air, the bowstring already drawn in mid-air.
"Creak!"
After that tooth-grinding sound rang out.
The arrow pierced the air once more.
"Whoosh!"
A torrent of sharp energy surged toward the wolf demon's location, like a waterfall.
Seeing this scene.
The latter dared not be negligent.
He raised his spiked club and began to swing it, knocking the arrows to the ground one by one.
However, the little demon behind him wasn't so lucky.
Almost instantly.
His body was pierced.
At this moment, Lu Yuan did not stop attacking.
He soared through the air and arrived before the wolf demon in an instant. His bow and arrows were put away, and his fist fell like a meteor.
It shimmered with the luster of a falling meteorite.
The blue wolf roared angrily, its spiked club striking relentlessly.
However, under Lu Yuan's fist shadow, he was forced to retreat continuously.
In less than half an incense stick's time, his thick arms began to tremble.
He even had trouble holding his weapon steady.
Lu Yuan, on the other hand, became more and more enthusiastic as the fight progressed.
Then, his body flew high into the air.
The Green Dragon Crescent Blade appeared in his hand without him even noticing.
It shimmered with a bluish-gold luster.
As it plummeted downwards, the "Myriad Blade Manual" was unleashed.
A terrifying sound rang out at that moment.
The buzzing sound vibrates the eardrums.
Then, it clashed with the Blue Wolf weapon.
"Buzz!"
As the blade struck, waves of energy emanated from the point where the weapons clashed, spreading outwards in all directions.
Like a giant wave, it was extremely terrifying.
Dust and smoke billowed up at the foot of the mountain as it was struck by the immense energy.
Rocks flew everywhere.
Upon witnessing this scene, the two women watching from the sidelines revealed a burning fervor in their eyes—a testament to their admiration for the strong.
They never imagined that someone at the Transcendent Realm could possess such formidable combat power.
Most importantly, Lu Yuan's weapons are not limited to bows and arrows; his fist techniques and sword techniques are also incredibly powerful.
After the smoke and dust settled on the battlefield.
A figure slowly appeared; it was none other than Lu Yuan.
As for the wolf's head, he held it in his hand.
At this moment, Lu Yuan was exuding a violent aura.
Then, turning to Meng Tong and Yao Yue, he said, "Let's go back."
After saying that, he headed out of the mountain, and all of this took only half a day.
After handing over the wolf demon's head, Lu Yuan received ten merit points.
As for the merit points of those lesser demons, he gave them to Meng Tong and Yao Yue, with each of the two women getting three or four points.
I'm quite satisfied.
Especially Meng Tong, this was her first time completing a mission, and she had heard that it was extremely difficult.
I'm prepared for the first failure; all I need to do is get back safely.
I didn't expect to earn merit points so easily.
However, they knew in their hearts that this was all because Lu Yuan was there; otherwise, they probably wouldn't have been able to kill the Azure Wolf Demon so smoothly.
They might even be defeated in return.
Having earned merit points and accepted another mission, Lu Yuan bid farewell and went home.
Yao Yue and Meng Tong also parted ways.
Heading towards home.
However, just as Yao Yue arrived at a restaurant, ready to have something to eat...
A voice rang out: "Hey, isn't this Yao Yue? I heard you're hanging around with a genius who just joined the sect. You've forgotten all about us."
Yao Yue glanced at the next table and saw that more than a dozen outer disciples of the Changqing Sect were also eating there.
The leader was a young man whose master was a guest elder of the sect, whose status was similar to that of an elder, but who did not participate in core matters and would only take action when the sect was in danger.
It offers a lot of relative freedom.
As a disciple of a guest minister, the young man naturally held a different status.
When Yao Yue went there, she followed behind the other party.
This time, going out with Lu Yuan naturally aroused the man's dissatisfaction.
Within the Changqing Sect, each disciple has their own circle.
Some people left the circle.
The leader will naturally speak up, and sometimes even give a lesson.
"Senior Brother Chang, I was just going out with a friend and helping to show the way. How could I have forgotten you?" Yao Yue forced a smile.
Then he picked up a glass of wine from his table and went forward to offer a toast.
But she had just arrived beside him.
"Snapped!"
The wine glass in his hand was knocked to the ground.
His clothes were also covered in alcohol.
The man in the lead said in an unfriendly tone, "Since we're no longer on the same side, there's no need to drink anymore. I won't touch you this time, but you know the rules. Next time we meet, you'd better be prepared."
I will not show any mercy.
Also, don't think that just because you've hooked up with someone talented, you've climbed the social ladder. Who's truly superior is still uncertain.
The man's voice turned cold.
Yao Yue's face was very pale, and she stood there for a moment, not knowing what to do.
Then, the man continued, "However, considering our past relationship, I can give you a chance to sever ties with that Lu Yuan and continue to follow us. Remember, there's no such rule in any circle: you can't have your cake and eat it too."
The other person's words were cold, causing Yao Yue's face to turn pale.
But after hesitating for a moment, she said, "Senior Brother Chang, Lu Yuan is my friend. I can't sever ties with a friend just because of your words. Please don't take offense."
It must be said that this Demon Moon is quite ruthless.
After she finished speaking.
A cold glint flashed in Senior Brother Chang's eyes, but he smiled and said, "Alright, it seems that my status in Junior Sister's heart is quite different from that of the new disciple. There's nothing more to say."
Let's end our relationship here for today, but I hope my junior sister won't run into me again.
Yao Yue nodded, picked up another glass of wine, drank it all in one gulp, and then turned and left.
Watching her retreating figure, a disciple beside her said, "Senior Brother Chang, why don't we deal with that Lu Yuan guy first?"
"Shut up. That new disciple's talent is indeed quite good, it has even alarmed the sect leader. Let's wait and see after a while, and see if he can really become an apprentice of an elder." Chang Mo said.
Drink the beverage in the glass.
Clearly, if Lu Yuan cannot become an apprentice of the elders, they will start targeting him.
Meanwhile, Lu Yuan was unaware of all this. In the following days, he went out to take on missions almost every day with Meng Tong and Yao Yue.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed.
On this day, Lu Yuan finally exchanged for the Giant Spirit Fruit, a rare and precious treasure that could enhance his physical body.
In the backyard of the mansion, he held a piece of fruit in his hand and swallowed it in one gulp.
After Lu Yuan's physical cultivation technique reached the Xuan level, he would not fear anyone at the same level.
