All beasts submit, and the peerless imperial princess is about to defy the heavens!

The four of them walked up to the water curtain where they received their missions, and Feng Ning pointed to one of the missions on it.

"This is it. In Hengyang City of the Holy Feather Kingdom, a village there was massacred, and they sought help from the Heavenly Profound Sect. I'm quite interested in that."

Duan Menghua hesitated, "Pretty sister, this is a Golden Core level mission. Are you sure you want to go, given that we're just Foundation Establishment cultivators?"

Feng Ning patted her shoulder, "A Foundation Establishment cultivator who doesn't aspire to the Golden Core stage isn't a good Foundation Establishment cultivator."

Duan Menghua sighed, "That's not how it's calculated, is it? Perhaps we should reconsider?"

Feng Ning smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

Liu Yuanxiu didn't react much. He was going to take on any mission anyway, so it didn't matter which one he took. Even if he couldn't complete it, it didn't matter. He just wanted to team up with Feng Ning.

Yao Feibai remained calm and said, "Then let's give it a try."

Anyway, you won't lose points if you don't finish.

The four of them had just reached an agreement and taken off the mission tokens when Gu Wenlang came over and said, "Junior brothers and sisters, we've also taken a liking to this mission. Why don't we team up and go together?"

Feng Ning shook her head, "Sorry, we've already teamed up, and I don't want to be with you guys."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Gu Wenlang and his group remained where they were. Someone asked, "Senior Brother Gu, why did you bring these Foundation Establishment disciples with you?"

"Exactly, they're nothing special."

The only special thing is that the two junior sisters are both very beautiful. Could it be that Senior Brother Gu has taken a fancy to them?

Gu Wenlang sneered, "Don't you know who that junior sister was?"

The group exchanged glances, each seeing confusion in the other's eyes.

"The female disciple who just rejected us is the Fourth Elder's personal disciple."

Everyone turned around instantly. "Is she the Fourth Elder's newly accepted disciple?"

But they've already walked out, and now we can only see their backs.

They weren't at the sect during the disciple-acceptance ceremony, so they missed it, but they still heard a lot about this junior sister.

A genius disciple with a mutated ice spirit root and stunningly beautiful appearance.

Every single one of them was praise.

They initially thought it was an exaggeration, but they never expected that this junior sister was truly exceptionally talented. As for her strength, it was still too early to tell.

However, his reputation as the top disciple among the new students shouldn't be too bad.

No wonder my senior brother wanted to be with them. If they get on this bandwagon, will their future be any smoother?

But she has already refused, and she doesn't know what her senior brother will do next.

"Senior brother, what should we do? Should we go with them?"

Gu Wenlang glanced at him sideways, making the person who asked the question feel uneasy, and he quickly lowered his head.

Gu Wenlang stopped looking at him and turned his attention back to the water screen.

He casually picked up one of the tasks from the cardboard box and said, "Go and take on that task."

Upon closer inspection, everyone realized it was a mission from the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts.

It's very close to Hengyang City.

Gu Wenlang looked at everyone and said, "Go and find out who the other people were."

Just as they were about to leave, someone spoke up, "Senior Brother Gu, I think I know one of them."

Gu Wenlang stopped in his tracks.

He continued, "That person should be from a branch of our family; I've met him once."

"Liu family?"

"It should be, but I haven't been back for too long and I don't know the current situation. I'll send a message home to find out when I get back."

Gu Wenlang nodded approvingly, "Well done. The rest of you are in charge now. Make sure you find out everything, including the Fourth Elder's personal disciple."

Everyone agreed and left.

Feng Ning and the others were unaware of their thoughts. They were already preparing to go back and pack their things, then ask for leave to go out on a mission.

The group agreed to meet at Wufeng.

After all, Xiaoyao Peak is located in the innermost area, and not just anyone can enter.

These ordinary inner disciples don't even have the qualifications to go up to the mountaintop, let alone bypass Martial Peak to go to Free and Unfettered Peak.

Feng Ning went back and reported to Nian Zhao, explained the situation, and then left.

Nian Zhao also generously gave his flying magical artifact to Feng Ning.

Feng Ning's eyes lit up instantly. "Thank you, Master."

She was worried that the journey was too long and they would waste a lot of time, but Nian Zhao solved the problem directly.

So they happily took their things and left.

Nian Zhao said he found her annoying, but as soon as Feng Ning left, he went to the sect leader's courtyard crying and bothered the sect leader for several days. The sect leader was so angry that he beat him up before he was satisfied.

After Feng Ning left, she went directly to Wu Feng's square, where Duan Menghua and the others were already waiting.

As soon as she came out, the group set off immediately.

Duan Menghua looked at the luxurious flying artifact and couldn't stop smiling. "Wow! As expected of the Fourth Elder's only personal disciple, you are indeed deeply loved. The Fourth Elder even gave you such a treasure."

"Of course! I'm the only son!"

Yao Feibai's eyes flickered. A flying magical artifact is extremely expensive. Even his family wouldn't just give him one away casually.

Liu Yuanxiu looked at her and smiled, "It's good that the Fourth Elder treats you well."

Feng Ning smiled and said, "Let's go, we should set off sooner rather than later. The sooner we get there, the sooner we can resolve this."

The four of them flew directly up and set off for Hengyang City.

As soon as she went up, Duan Menghua happily spun around. When she came back, she was about to discuss with them where to go for fun, but then she saw that the three of them had already started cultivating.

"Seriously? We finally managed to get out of the house, and you guys are back to cultivating again?"

Feng Ning sighed helplessly, "We've been on the spirit boat the whole way, there's nothing we can do. What else can we do if we don't cultivate?"

Duan Menghua looked at her incredulously, "Is this how you usually are?"

Feng Ning shook her head. Of course not, she's usually even busier.

Seeing her shake her head, Duan Menghua breathed a sigh of relief; that was good.

She sighed, "Menghua, we are cultivators. As long as we live, our cultivation will never end. Are you slacking off now?"

Duan Menghua was speechless at her question.

It wasn't that she was lazy; she usually worked very hard. Otherwise, how could she have reached the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment at only fifteen years old? That's not something that can be achieved just by talent.

But when she was asked that question, she suddenly felt a little guilty. Why was that?

"Alright, let's do it together then."

She finds it quite boring to play alone.

The other two continued their cultivation with satisfaction.

Everyone should be treated equally. Feng Ning just used the same words to provoke them, so we can't leave her out.

She had barely sat down when she remembered something else: "Pretty lady, you're finally willing to show your true face?"

Feng Ning was taken aback. "You seem to have known all along?"

Duan Menghua smiled but did not answer.

Yao Feibai was also puzzled, but he never thought of asking her.
