Chapter 659: The Rules of Asking for Help

Ye Lin walked to the front desk without hesitation, intending to accept this task directly.

"Hello, Senior Brother, I want to accept this task of killing the evil cultivator," Ye Lin said as he walked to the front desk.

"Identity token."

The senior brother took Ye Lin's identity token, checked it, and immediately frowned.

"Great Perfection of the Profound Opening Realm? With your realm, you want to go and kill a Heavenly Dipper Realm evil cultivator? An evil cultivator holding a Ten Thousand Soul Banner? You are clearly sending yourself to death. You cannot accept this task!"

"Senior Brother, please make an exception."

Ye Lin took out two hundred top-grade Immortal Source Stones and secretly stuffed them over.

Unexpectedly, he ran into a righteous person this time. The senior brother pushed the Immortal Source Stones back righteously.

"What are you doing? What are you doing? Don't try this on me! I won't let you go because I'm afraid you'll die there for nothing! The task requirements are very clear: only disciples above the Five Elements Realm can accept it!"

"Senior Brother, believe me! I can really deal with it!" Ye Lin said with certainty.

"I believe your ghost! Go away, go away, don't block the people behind you." The senior brother didn't believe Ye Lin's words at all.

Letting a Profound Opening Realm disciple deal with a Heavenly Dipper Realm evil cultivator—what was the difference between that and intentional murder?

Ye Lin was a little conflicted. If he didn't accept the task, he wouldn't get the specific information about the task. The Great Flame Dynasty was so big, it wouldn't be easy to find that evil cultivator.

If it really didn't work, he could only find those old men.

Just then, a pleasant voice rang out.

"Then can I accept this task with him?"

Gu Gu Qianxue walked over slowly. When she saw that Ye Lin dared to accept this task of killing the evil cultivator, she was even more convinced that this guy was definitely not simple!

"So it's Junior Sister Gu. If you accept it, of course you can, but are you sure you want to bring this junior brother who is only at the Profound Opening Realm? I'm afraid he will be in danger!"

The front desk senior brother frowned.

Of course he had heard of Gu Gu Qianxue's name—Heaven-grade mutated single spirit root. With this talent, defeating three cultivators of the same rank was easy.

A task that originally required three Five Elements Realm cultivators to accept—no one would think there was any problem if Gu Gu Qianxue accepted it alone.

"Rest assured, Senior Brother. I think Fellow Daoist Ye Lin should be able to protect himself, right? Ye Lin." Gu Gu Qianxue looked at Ye Lin with some curiosity.

Although Ye Lin didn't know why Gu Gu Qianxue wanted to help him, seeing that the matter could be resolved, of course he wouldn't refuse.

"Yes, Senior Brother! I'm just going to see the world; I won't mess around. Don't worry!" Ye Lin patted his chest and guaranteed.

"Alright then."

Seeing Gu Gu Qianxue's guarantee, the front desk senior brother nodded, handed the specific information of the task to Ye Lin and the other, and urged them.

"Remember! If you find that the evil cultivator has helpers or his strength soars, don't be brave. Bring the information back to the sect, and the sect will send stronger cultivators to go. The most important thing in doing a task is to protect yourself first!"

Ye Lin hummed a few times indifferently, and then checked the specific information.

The evil cultivator was named Sushan. At first, he was a normal person who just wanted to find a girl to fall in love with and get married, but he ran into an evil female demon and was hunted down by her.

In order to survive, Sushan could only choose to practice evil methods and successfully killed the female demon. However, before the female demon died, she chose to possess Sushan.

This also led to Sushan's soul being damaged and his spirit being somewhat disordered, often muttering that it wasn't him who was wrong, but this world.

This person was extremely dangerous, with at least tens of thousands of lives in his hands. His last appearance was in Anding County of the Great Flame Dynasty.

The cultivators of the Great Flame Dynasty were unable to deal with him, so they could only ask the Immortal Cloud Sect for help.

After getting the specific news, Ye Lin prepared to go to the Great Flame Dynasty through the teleportation array.

Seeing Gu Gu Qianxue still following him, Ye Lin couldn't help but ask.

"You want to go too?"

Gu Gu Qianxue was stunned, her beautiful face full of astonishment.

"Can't I go?"

"I thought you were just kindly helping me accept a task. That's fine, let's go together."

Ye Lin scratched his head. At worst, he would just knock her out when he interrogated the method of refining the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

The two stepped onto the teleportation array. Accompanied by a burst of spatial fluctuations and the fragmentation and reorganization of the scene before them, the two arrived at the Great Flame Dynasty.

The Great Flame Dynasty, like the Angry Sea Dynasty, was also one of the vassal dynasties of the Immortal Cloud Sect.

There was no teleportation array in Anding County, so they could only teleport to the nearby Jishan City and then rush to Anding County.

As soon as the two walked out of the teleportation array, the people of the Great Flame Dynasty immediately greeted them.

"Two Immortal Elders! We have been looking forward to the stars and the moon, and we have finally waited for you!"

A middle-aged man rushed over crying. He was Lu Lu Shihan, the City Lord of Jishan City, with a mid-stage Profound Opening Realm cultivation.

Lu Lu Shihan's pressure during this period was immense, for fear that Sushan would suddenly appear and start a massacre one day.

He couldn't fight him, and he couldn't escape.

Now that he saw the Immortal Cloud Sect had finally sent someone, the big stone in his heart finally fell.

"May I ask the two Immortal Elders, when will you go to deal with that evil cultivator?" Lu Lu Shihan asked eagerly.

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Ye Lin glanced at him and said.

"The little one doesn't dare!"

Lu Lu Shihan was trembling with fear. Don't look at him as a City Lord; in front of the Immortal Cloud Sect disciples, the status of City Lord was just a display.

"Cultivation is not about fighting and killing. Do you understand the rules of asking for help? First set up a welcome banquet, prepare good wine—remember to use a broken bottle to hold it—after three rounds of wine, then send some local specialties, and then start discussing in detail how to do things. Do you understand?" Ye Lin said solemnly.

Lu Lu Shihan was a little stunned. Why did the Immortal Cloud Sect elders now popularize this set?

"Yes, Immortal Elder, it was my negligence. I will order people to do it right away." After all, he was asking for help, so Lu Lu Shihan could only obey.

Gu Gu Qianxue on the side frowned a little.

"Ye Lin, I'm afraid this is a bit against the rules, right? If we don't go to solve the evil cultivator as soon as possible, what if he comes out to harm people again?"

Hearing Gu Gu Qianxue's words, Lu Lu Shihan's eyes ignited with a little hope again.

"What I want is for him to stuff a few more into the Ten Thousand Soul Banner... oh, wait, no. This evil cultivator's strength is extraordinary; dealing with him requires long-term planning, no rash actions!" Realizing he had misspoken, Ye Lin hurriedly corrected himself.

"I can handle him. Even if he has the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, he absolutely cannot be my match!" Gu Gu Qianxue said confidently.

"Oh? Really? How about now?"

Ye Lin grinned, and with lightning speed, stuffed two pills into Gu Gu Qianxue's rosy little mouth.

Gu Gu Qianxue never expected Ye Lin to suddenly attack her. Caught off guard, her fair neck moved as she swallowed the two pills.

After swallowing the pills, Gu Gu Qianxue's breathing grew rapid, her fair skin turned bright red, beads of sweat the size of peas soaked her robes, and a nameless, wicked fire ignited in her abdomen.

"What did you just feed me? It's so hot!"

"A Joyous Union Pill refined from ghost chili powder and a Grain-Exclusion Pill refined from a large amount of laxatives. I call this the 'Vomit-and-Diarrhea Marrow-Cleansing Combo.' You're about to start purging impurities, so you should be happy about it."
