This was the first ti Yang Ze was using such a huge number of items to rge. Primarily, he wanted to test the limits of the items he could rge and if there was so kind of limitations. He wanted to see if the outco would change depending on the items he was placing inside.
The last ti he tried sothing like this, the outco was miserable. Not only did he lose all of his blue talents, but he also didn’t even get anything in return.
Hence, this ti, instead of putting in his talents, he decided to go with sothing more affordable.
The mont Yang Ze chose to rge, the cauldron let out a blinding white light as it began to tremble violently as if it was going to shatter the next mont.
Thankfully, the outco he was fearing didn’t co to pass. After the cauldron trembled for a while, it gradually cald down before stopping completely.
"It works." Yang Ze himself wasn’t expecting it to work. One had to understand that he threw hundreds, if not thousands, of herbs in the cauldron. For it to actually work...
"Huss..." Yang Ze didn’t dare to think what type of item he was going to get next.
Regulating his breath, he carefully looked at the small window that popped up in front of the cauldron.
"Please, don’t be any stupid mission this ti."
The last ti there was a mission of having sex with Jian Yu that failed miserably, costing him all his blue talents. He just didn’t want sothing similar to happen.
Praying in his heart, Yang Ze looked at the panel while holding his breath and the mont he saw the mission, his breathing paused, and for a mont, he even forgot to react.
It wasn’t until a few more monts had passed that he ca back to his senses and cursed at the top of his lungs.
"Oh, you have got to be kidding ."
Looking at the ridiculous mission in front of him, Yang Ze could’t help but grit his teeth in anger. After all, the mission that appeared, though not as ridiculous as the previous one, was still sothing that he didn’t want to see.
"What a ss."
Gritting his teeth in anger, Yang Ze watched at the panel in front of him, upon which a single row of text was shining in a dim golden light.
[Make Chen ili climax ten tis in a row.](7-day ti limit)
—---------------------------------
"How is it? Did you find out anything?"
While Yang Ze was busy cursing the panel, an entirely different scene was playing out just a few hundred ters away from him.
Around the house where the won discovered the corpse, the middle-aged woman who previously oversaw the Annual Gathering was quietly looking at the large pot placed in the middle of the room with a frown on her face.
"Reporting to supervisor..."
"Nothing concrete."
One of the younger won beside her answered in a respectful tone.
"We have traced her steps back to the morning, and the only thing we were able to find was that she brought a small girl with her back to the house. And after that..."
Even though she didn’t complete her sentence, the middle-aged woman, the supervisor, understood what she was trying to say.
"Go on..."
"Did you find out anything about the girl?"
"Yes," the young woman imdiately nodded in response. "As a matter of fact, I did."
Speaking till here, she reached inside her robe and took out a small scroll that she passed onto the middle-aged woman.
"This is..." The supervisor only took a cursory glance and understood what it was.
Without any hesitation, she unfurled the scroll and deeply gazed at the image of a petite young girl in it.
"Anything on her?"
"Just a few things." The young woman thought for a mont before explaining in great detail. If Yang Ze were to listen to her, he would have been shocked. Everything that he did after taking his first step into the Imperial city was described vividly by the woman. From the mont he entered, took a boat, and then wandered around before being picked up by that woman who was researching the so-called ’Elixir’.
"....." After listening to the complete report, the middle-aged woman went silent for a long ti and then gazed at the pot placed in the middle of the room.
"Did you find anything that belonged to the girl?"
"No." The answer was swift and direct.
"I see." The middle-aged woman nodded in response as if expecting such an outco. She then handed the scroll back to the young woman and spoke in a cold voice.
"Spread it all over the city. The chances of finding her are pretty slim, but at least we can try." After giving her an order, she bent down to pick up the fragnts of the iron block from the floor. No matter from which angle she saw it, it was pure iron. She just couldn’t understand how soone could seal a small area with such a huge chunk of iron.
It was impossible for soone to carry such a huge chunk of tal without being noticed by others. She herself was in the early stage of Foundation Forging, and even if she were to use her entire strength, it would be impossible to move such a large chunk of iron.
And even if by so stroke of luck, soone was able to carry it till here, why would they even waste it on so obscure person who was going to die either way?
The more she thought about it, the less sense it all made. In the end, she could only give up and order in a hoarse voice.
"Keep on searching for her. Also, report this entire matter to the Guard Division. See if they could find sothing."
"Also... Send everything in this room... From books to any pages or even mixtures... Send them all to ."
With one last order, the middle-aged woman turned around and left the room, while tightly gripping a piece of shattered iron from the ground.
—----------------
On the other side, Yang Ze was speechlessly looking at the panel in front of him. His eyes would constantly roam between his personal panel and the mission that was being displayed in front of him.
"Why does it always give such shitty missions?" Till now, Yang Ze never bothered to think about how the mission system works or what the requirents were. But now, for the first ti, he was seriously beginning to consider this matter.
But no matter how hard he thought about it, he just couldn’t co up with an answer.
"Forget about how this thing works."
"What the hell am I supposed to do with this mission?" Gritting his teeth in frustration, Yang Ze could’t help but curse in a low voice. He had spent so much money, ti and effort just to get the herbs. And now that the rging was a success, he didn’t want to waste it.
Unlike the first mission, where he needed to sleep with Jian Yu, who was a complete stranger to him. At least this ti, he knew the target of his mission.
"Tch." Thinking about that annoying woman and her way of talking, Yang Ze couldn’t help but click his tongue in annoyance. For a mont, he even wanted to give up on this mission, but managed to hold himself back.
Not to ntion the long cooldown, even if he were to give up on the mission, what was he going to do if he ca across a similar mission in the future?
"Just this one ti." In the end, the allure of getting so kind of heaven-defying item got the better of him. "After it, I am never going to complete the so-called mission."
No one knew if Yang Ze was talking to himself or the mission panel in front of him.
After making up his mind, he began to pace around the room while thinking about his next course of action.
—-----------------------
On the other side, inside a brightly lit room that was filled with all kinds of luxuries, the figure of Chan ili was lying leisurely on her bed with her proud curves perfectly displayed under those few pieces of clothes that were enough to make anyone ashad.
"That stupid whore... How dare she talk back?"
"I am gonna make sure she regrets it." The more she thought about Sun Qiao, her smug face and the scene of her getting a purse full of gold coins, the more annoyed she got. How could she tolerate that soone she used to look down on has managed to accomplish such a monuntal task, whereas she, herself, barely passed it?
"What should I do to her?" And just when she was thinking about how she was going to take care of that bitch, a shiver ran down her spine as if she was being targeted by sothing extrely terrifying.
But this sensation of hers lasted only a fraction of a mont before disappearing completely, making her wonder if she was beginning to hallucinate.
"No... I can’t just sit here and do nothing." With every passing mont, her rage only increased as she began to pace back and forth inside her room, trying to co up with a suitable plan, but she didn’t even think for a while before letting out a gentle peal of laughter.
"Why would I even need an excuse?"
Shaking her head, she walked out of the house, raised her head to look in the opposite direction and then, without any hesitation, walked towards her destination.
Yang Ze, on the other hand, was already trying to co up with a plan as to how he was going to accomplish such a task.
"Should I directly rush to her or wait?"
And just when he was wondering about his next course of action, a burst of footsteps brought him back to his senses.
"Hmm?" Waving his hand, Yang Ze dispersed the large wooden board, leaving the door unlocked.
And sure enough, after a few minutes, a group of won was already standing in front of his door, constantly knocking.
"Open up. We have so questions to ask."
From the sounds of it, the group of won seed to be in a hurry.
After thinking for a mont, Yang Ze took a deep breath, walked in front of the door and then, without any hesitation, pulled it open.
Initially, he was expecting to see the familiar faces of the won who were present at the Annual gathering, but to his surprise, it was an entirely different group of won.
The five or so won standing in front of him were all wearing a long black robe with an exquisite toke that had a word ’Guard’ carved upon it.
Just a single glance and Yang Ze knew the identity of the people standing in front of his door...
’The guard division.’
And just when he was wondering why they were standing in front of his door, one of the won took a step forward and asked in a shrill voice.
"Did you see a girl who looks like this?" Before Yang Ze could say a word, one of the won threw a portrait at him.
"...." Catching the portrait, Yang Ze took a look only to realise it was his illusion.
And just when he was wondering what lie he should co up with, he saw a mature, plump figure slowly walking towards him from the corner of his eye.
"What the..."
"She’s here!?" Looking at the plump figure of Chen ili, who was leisurely making her way towards him, Yang Ze’s eyes lit up.
He had been wondering how to get close to that woman. But who would have thought that it would be her who personally visited him?
This was the perfect ti for him to complete his mission.
So, after shaking his head at the won on the door, Yang Ze waited patiently for Chen ili to co close.
He had decided to complete his mission as soon as possible. Especially after seeing Chen ili’s enraged face and a pair of eyes that seed to be spewing flas.
With a smile, he threw the scroll back to the guards and shook his head in response, his eyes still stuck on the figure that was slowly walking towards him.
