Above the source of Tao

At this time, Chu Xiaoxiao got the task and read the content: Because the king of Chu Zhao Dynasty was ill in bed and ignored the world, there was a riot caused by evil spirits. Dozens of people in the royal city have disappeared. The second prince Chu Tianming led the city guards to investigate for several days, but failed to find out the cause. Now please ask the immortals in Shangyang Sect to send people to investigate. After finding out the cause, there will be a big reward.

The sect sent two disciples to conduct a mission for half a year, with a Xuan-level mission.

Looking at the content above, a hint of uneasiness flashed across Chu Xiaoxiao's eyes, so she decisively took on the task.

"The task scroll requires two people. I wonder if Ning Feng is free." Thinking of this, Chu Xiaoxiao took out the communication jade slip and contacted Ning Feng.

But Ning Feng evaded the question, saying that he had to prepare for the inner sect competition in a year and was at a critical moment. He could not go with you, so he declined Chu Xiaoxiao's invitation.

At this time, Ning Feng was holding the jade slip in his hand, looking ahead with an uncomfortable expression.

"This reason is really impeccable. I am really a genius." Ning Feng said while wiping the cold sweat from his head. He didn't want to go on a mission with that little devil. It was too depressing to be around her. If he stayed with her for a long time, he might become depressed.

"Senior Brother Ning Feng, Master is going to teach you how to refine artifacts. You'd better come quickly. You won't be able to catch up if you are late." A voice came from outside the house.

"Got it, right away." After saying that, he stood up from the chair in the house and walked out.

However, when Chu Xiaoxiao in the Ren Hall saw that the invitation failed, she invited a few more people, but they were all rejected for various reasons. When she didn't know who to find, a person suddenly came to her mind.

So I sent him a message and also told him my location.

Live in peace.

At this time, Yun Chang'an was still working hard to transform his Yuan Qi into Yuan Liquid and replenish his Qi Palace, when he heard a message coming out from his jade slip.

When Yun Chang'an saw someone was looking for him, he stopped practicing. At this time, with the help of the Tai Shang Five Elements Yuan Yin Fa, more than half of the Yuan Qi in his body had been converted into Yuan Ye.

At this moment, Yun Chang'an looked no different, except that his young face looked a little more mature and had a more Taoist aura. He looked more like Chu Xiaoxiao when he first met her than a mortal.

Yun Changan took out his jade slip and looked at the contents. It was a message from Senior Sister Chu, which only asked him to come to Fanren Palace for something.

"Fan Rendian?"

Yun Chang'an already knew from Senior Sister Chu what Fanren Hall was used for, so he packed up and went to Fanren Hall according to the location sent by Senior Sister Chu.

At this time, Chu Xiaoxiao, who was sitting in the hall, was anxiously waiting for the arrival of his junior brother.

"I don't know whether my junior brother will come." After she sent a message to Yun Chang'an, she never received a reply.

After waiting for a while, she decided not to wait any longer, so she prepared to tell the elders in the hall that she wanted to take on the task alone. According to her master's favor, the elders should let her take on the task.

So, she prepared to go to the hall, and when she was about to open the door of the hall, she heard a voice behind her.

"Senior Sister Chu, why are you looking for me so urgently?"

Yun Chang'an said this as he ran to Senior Sister Chu's side, wiping the sweat off his face. It wasn't that he was late on purpose, but there were too many peaks in the inner gate, so he ran to the wrong mountain. After asking several senior brothers, he finally found the Renshan Peak.

As soon as I entered the Fanren Hall, I saw Senior Sister Chu preparing to enter the room in that hall, so I shouted.

Seeing Yun Changan running over, Chu Xiaoxiao's anxiety suddenly subsided a lot. She turned around and said to him, "I have accepted a task that requires two people to complete. I wonder if you are willing to do it?"

Yun Chang'an agreed without hesitation and followed Senior Sister Chu into a house in the hall. The room was not big, with only a table with many scrolls on it. Behind the table was a bamboo chair where a middle-aged man sat. He had a beard, some gray hair on his temples, and was dressed in black with bright eyes.

Seeing someone coming, he said without even raising his head, "Are you here to accept a mission or hand in a mission?"

Yun Chang'an stood beside Senior Sister Chu, without saying anything, just waiting quietly.

"Uncle Qingyue, it's me. I want to take on this task."

The middle-aged man's name was Gao Qingyue. He was a close friend of Chu Xiaoxiao's mother and also an elder of the Fanren Hall of the Shangyang Sect.

Elder Qingyue looked up and saw that the person coming was Chu Xiaoxiao. He took the task scroll and saw the content on it. He frowned and said seriously, "Do you want to go back? I don't recommend you to take this task."

"I want to go back and see my mother."

Seeing a trace of unwillingness on Chu Xiaoxiao's face, Gao Qingyue's heart softened. He just sighed, lowered his head, picked up the bamboo pen in his hand, dipped it in ink, and wrote her name on the scroll.

"This mission requires two people. What's the name of the other one?" Gao Qingyue asked without raising his head.

"The other one is my junior fellow apprentice, Yun Chang'an."

After hearing Yun Changan's name, Gao Qingyue stopped writing with the bamboo pen in his hand and looked up at Yun Changan. "Are you the disciple who reached the top of the Denglou Secret Realm a few days ago?"

When Yun Changan saw Gao Qingyue asking, he replied, "To elder Qingyue, it is my disciple."

Gao Qingyue stared at Yun Changan for a long while. "He is young and promising, and looks like my great-grandmaster in his old age."

Hearing Elder Qing Yue praising him, Yun Changan blushed and thanked him embarrassedly.

After saying that, Gao Qingyue wrote Yun Changan's name on the scroll, and took out the sect's mission seal and stamped it on their names.

After finishing the task, the two men received the task jade slips and left the house.

After leaving the house, Yun Changan asked Senior Sister Chu, "Just now, Elder Qingyue said that I look like my great-grandmaster uncle. Who is that great-grandmaster uncle?"

"My uncle is the cousin of the headmaster Yihong. He was honored as my uncle by everyone because he was a disciple of the headmaster's master. His name is Yihengzi and his Taoist name is Nanmu Zhenjun. He declined the position of headmaster in his early years and traveled around the world."

Yun Changan understood in his heart and murmured to himself that he was not trapped by the world and was a person of true temperament.

"Why, do you also think that Master's uncle is someone who can achieve great success?"

"Well, I just think he is amazing. He was able to refuse the position of the head. This is a position that many people dream of!"

"What about you? If I asked you to be the head, would you accept it?"

"As for me, my strength is so low that it is not my turn. If someone really wants me to be the head, I probably won't do it."

"Why?" Chu Xiaoxiao looked at Yun Changan with a questioning look.

"All I want is a little help. I can't take on such a big responsibility." Yun Chang'an replied with a smile.

All he got in return was Chu Xiaoxiao's rolling eyes, and he stopped talking.
