The top-level junior sister also wants to act weak today

The next day, the Xianyun Sect group began their return journey.

However, before everyone had rested for long after returning, Wan Jinan called them to the cabinet in the evening, saying that there was something important to discuss.

This reminded Jiang Yingxue of the time when she was doing scientific research in her previous life, when she was asked to attend group meetings every day.

I clearly agreed to be a salted fish in this life, why am I repeating the same mistakes again?

She carried her tired body to the cabinet of the First Peak. Sure enough, several familiar faces were all there, and she was the last one to arrive.

She laughed awkwardly twice and then sat down. "I wonder why Master called us here?"

"Come on, everyone, sit down."

After saying that, Wan Jinan took out two wooden signs. "These are the new mission signs I got from Xuanji Pavilion. One is a Level B2 monster-catching mission, and it's a mirror monster. The other is about an unsolved serial murder case. However, because people are still dying and the government can't solve the case, they've entrusted the task to our cultivation world. And it's still unclear whether the killer is a human or a monster. So it's tentatively designated as a Level B2 mission. I've led the four of you on a mission before, and we've accumulated experience. So I won't be participating this time. You can just form teams of two and carry out the mission separately."

Wan Jinan leaned back in his chair and pointed at Yan Chuan and Jiang Yingxue: "You two form a group."

Then he pointed at Chu Ying and Cen Yizi and said, "You two form a group."

"Alright, choose between the Mirror Monster and the Lian Bad Case. The reward for both is 2,000 Spirit Stones."

Jiang Yingxue sighed helplessly, then frowned and rubbed her head. "Master, to be honest... I used up too much spiritual energy when I liberated the ice dragon in the northern mountains. I have to start the next mission just a few days after completing the last one. I can't handle it."

Wan Jinan narrowed his eyes and said, "My dear disciple, you are an inner sect disciple, you can't be lazy."

After saying that, he walked over to Jiang Yingxue and lowered his voice: "You don't want others to know what level of Lanxu Kung Fu you have reached, right?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yingxue pouted in dissatisfaction: "Master, the purpose of completing missions is nothing more than earning spirit stones. I have money."

"Yes, you have money, but do you have actual combat experience? Do you know how to deal with different tactics and different enemies?" Wan Jinan began to teach him earnestly: "Money is secondary. The key is experience, okay?"

Jiang Yingxue curled her lips helplessly after hearing this.

If she hadn't promised Venerable Lingxu to participate in the sect competition on her master's behalf, she really wanted to commit some crime right now and have the Xianyun Sect expel her, so that she could return to Yun Country and enjoy a good life. However, she was still a disciple of the Xianyun Sect after all, and she still had to fulfill her obligations.

"I understand." She had no choice but to agree, then added: "But why should I be in the same group with Senior Brother? Can't I be in the same group with Chu Ying?"

"This is allocated according to strength. You are only in the Qi Refining Stage, so it is more appropriate to let Yan Chuan, who is in the Golden Core Stage, accompany you. He is experienced and can protect you. Is this a thoughtful thought, Master?"

Jiang Yingxue chuckled twice: "Thoughtful, thoughtful."

"In that case, which one do you want to choose?"

Jiang Yingxue took a quick glance and then handed the sign to Chu Ying: "You guys choose first."

To her, it doesn't matter which one it is.

"Let me choose first?" Chu Ying took the sign and looked at it again and again. "They all seem similar. But Yingxue, this serial murder case is in Yun Country. Do you want to go and take a look?"

When Jiang Yingxue heard that it was in her territory, her eyes immediately lit up. She quickly took the sign and found that it was indeed Yun Country, in Yun Country's Liangzhou.

"It's actually in Liangzhou..." Although Liangzhou was a bit far from the capital, it was Jiang Yingxue's mother's hometown, so the Marquisate also had quite a few properties there. Without a second thought, she immediately said, "Then I'll choose the serial case!"

"Okay, then it's settled." After that, Wan Jinan gave everyone a purse as a reward for the last mission.

Soon, Jiang Yingxue and Yan Chuan set off for Liangzhou.

The moment she stepped into Liangzhou, Jiang Yingxue felt like a Liuzi who had been in trouble for many years and had returned to his hometown.

Liangzhou's streets are spacious and neatly arranged, lined with imposing shops, their brick walls adorned with brightly colored signs. The shops are diverse, offering a dazzling array of goods. Street vendors busily prepare a variety of delicacies, the aroma of fried food and the taste of pastries mingling in the air, beckoning you to try them all.

Soon, Jiang Yingxue took Yan Chuan into Baiyu Tower, the most famous restaurant in Liangzhou.

When the waiter saw the two of them, he immediately came over and greeted them warmly: "What would you like to eat?"

Jiang Yingxue smiled and then said skillfully, "I want your steamed sea bass, lychee meat, tofu skin rolls, and fermented rice dumplings."

The waiter said, "Oh, sir, although you look unfamiliar, you sound very familiar with our signature dishes. Wait, I'll take your order right away."

After the waiter walked away, Yan Chuan picked up the teacup and asked, "You seem to be very familiar with Liangzhou?"

"Of course, my mother is from Liangzhou."

"No wonder." Yan Chuan lowered his head and said lightly.

After a while, the waiter began to serve the dishes one after another: "Sir, your dishes are here. Please enjoy."

"Wait a minute." Yan Chuan hurriedly stopped him. He leaned forward slightly, looking extremely serious: "Brother, I want to ask you something."

After saying this, Yan Chuan gave the other party some small change. The waiter saw the silver and quickly accepted it, saying with a smile, "Sir, if you ask, I will tell you everything I know." His tone was full of enthusiasm, and it was obvious that he had seen many customers, but he had never concealed his love for silver.

"I heard that there was a serial murder case recently in Liangzhou? What's going on?"

The waiter was startled when he heard this and quickly pulled out a stool and sat down. "Oh, this is a really long story, and it's quite bizarre. There have been many cases of women committing suicide in Liangzhou recently."

"Suicide?" Jiang Yingxue and Yan Chuan said almost in unison.

"Yes, every once in a while, a woman would hang herself. But we ordinary people don't believe the nonsense the government tells us. It's definitely not suicide."

Jiang Yingxue immediately asked, "Why do you say that?"

"Take the woman who committed suicide the day before yesterday, for example. Her name was Xiaolian. She had a very kind personality and was very filial. I've met her before. How could a woman like that be so devastated as to commit suicide? Her parents have been making a scene at the government office for two days. If you go over after dinner, you'll probably still be kneeling outside the office. But the coroner's diagnosis was suicide. Alas, the government is at a loss as to what to do now."

"Then in your opinion, if it's not suicide, what is it?"

Upon hearing this, the waiter lowered his voice in a mysterious tone, "I think he's been possessed by a ghost!"
