Chapter 51: A Spiritual Connection
After contemplating the key points, Lian Yun fell silent for a moment before asking, "What is Brother Xiao's opinion?"
"If Jun agrees, then there is no problem!" Elder Mei replied with a smile.
Regardless of anything else, Xiao Jun being able to travel with someone other than Yao Yun'er was considered progress for him, and it was something that brought joy to Elder Mei.
"Setting aside the rewards offered by the senior, if possible, I would also like to take on this mission for the Three Thousand Honor Reward. Since Brother Xiao has no objections, I can give it a try. If successful, I wonder if the senior could spare five portions of Yaochi Essence for me?"
"Ah! Would it be acceptable to exchange these five portions of Yaochi Essence for Diamond Spirit Coins?" Zhuang Wuxue felt a bit surprised but did not refuse. However, he thought that Lian Yun wanted the Yaochi Essence for personal use, which was why he proposed such a condition.
But Lian Yun shook his head and smiled slightly, saying, "It's not for personal use; it's a gift for someone."
Zhuang Wuxue looked at Lian Yun with understanding and nodded. He then said, "I don't know how much Yaochi Essence can be produced in the Yaochi Dungeon. The output is uncertain, but I believe there should be quite a bit available upon clearing the dungeon."
"In that case, how about this: if you two can clear the dungeon, the Yaochi Essence reward will naturally belong to you both. If there are more than five portions, your condition will naturally be voided. If there are fewer than five portions, Yaochi will make up the difference later. What do you think?"
Hmm! This is clearly a losing deal.
"If you two can clear the dungeon, then the rewards will rightfully belong to you both. Although Yaochi is eager for it, we won't resort to coercion or create enmity with you two. However, if you have any surplus, we hope you can sell it to Yaochi; we are willing to pay handsomely."
"That sounds perfectly fine!" Lian Yun replied with a slight smile.
"Then let's not delay!" Seeing Lian Yun's agreement, Zhuang Wuxue became somewhat impatient.
However, Lian Yun said, "I don't have much confidence this time. But if Brother Xiao doesn't break through to the Emperor Realm within two years, there should be a good chance."
Zhuang Wuxue did not respond, but there was a hint of joy on his face. Regardless, this indicated that even after this failure, Lian Yun would still venture into the Yaochi Dungeon.
Thus, the four of them took to the skies and soon encountered Yao Yun'er flying towards them. As soon as she arrived, she smiled and said, "It's a pity that dungeon isn't a three-person dungeon; otherwise, Yooner could have joined too."
"But Brother Yun, are you okay going alone with your senior? Can you understand what he’s thinking?"
"It’s fine; I can communicate with Brother Yun telepathically!"
Yao Yun'er tilted her body slightly, her beautiful eyes shining brightly, though there was also an awkwardness about her.
Lian Yun, however, seemed unfazed by this and nodded in agreement with Xiao Jun's words.
"Uh~~" Zhuang Wuxue was momentarily taken aback.
Well, it seemed these two girls were not very pure-minded.
Upon reaching the entrance of the Xianjian Sect, Elder Mei did not continue to send them off. As he had said himself, he could not always protect Xiao Jun under his wings. Moreover, with Zhuang Wuxue and Lian Yun present, their safety would not be a concern.
To save time, Zhuang Wuxue suggested that they use the Teleportation Array to transport themselves into Luoyang City.
When they arrived at the Central Square, Lian Yun suddenly asked, "Brother Xiao, what is your rank?"
Just based on Xiao Jun's ranking on the Ranking List, he earned millions of Honor Points weekly and monthly. Not to mention the substantial honors he gained from participating in Fortress defenses and completing dungeons.
Therefore, in Lian Yun's eyes, it wouldn’t be surprising if Xiao Jun were a duke.
However, Xiao Jun replied simply, "Baron."
Well, this was someone who didn't care at all about Honor Points.
However, Lian Yun nodded and said, "Brother Xiao, why not first elevate your rank?"
"That's fine."
Lian Yun shook his head and continued, "In the future, if Brother Xiao has the opportunity to venture outside, I can introduce you to two individuals. One is a sword cultivator of great renown; although he may not be as powerful as the Ancient Master, it's only a matter of time. Moreover, that sword cultivator has likely mastered the Earth Sword. The other is someone of our generation; in my opinion, he truly embodies what it means to be a pure sword cultivator."
Xiao Jun, indifferent to everything, couldn't help but feel a flicker of interest at Lian Yun's words. He nodded and headed directly toward the city lord's mansion.
On the other hand, Yao Yun'er seemed a bit displeased and said, "Brother Yun, you can't tempt my senior brother to leave this place!"
"Rest assured, given Brother Xiao's nature, even if he goes out into the world, it will only be for a discussion before he returns."
Although she recognized Lian Yun's good intentions, Yao Yun'er still felt a hint of dissatisfaction.
However, just as Xiao Jun had experienced a kindred connection with Lian Yun, Lian Yun understood what Xiao Jun sought. Meeting those two individuals might not be crucial for him, but it would undoubtedly be beneficial.
The main point was that Xiao Jun had always focused solely on the Earth Sword from the beginning and would benefit greatly from meeting those two. Engaging in a discussion about Sword One could potentially save him ten years of arduous training.
Since Xiao Jun usually didn't pay much attention to Honor Points, his actions diverged somewhat from Lian Yun's expectations; he had only managed to attain the rank of Marquis. However, this wasn't too significant; Lian Yun had merely been concerned that if Xiao Jun succeeded in his challenges, his Honor Points would be reduced.
After teleporting from Luoyang City to Xianyang City, the four arrived at the city lord's mansion together.
Upon understanding Lian Yun's intentions, Li Si stated directly, "I would rather assign you a war mission."
This surprised Zhuang Wuxue because she knew what a war mission entailed and was aware that she had never received such treatment from Li Si.
After the unexpected events, Zhuang Wuxue felt a mix of anxiety and anticipation. Being valued so highly by Li Si indicated that Bai Yun's future achievements could be limitless. However, since Li Si had made such a statement, it also suggested that Bai Yun might not yet be capable of passing through the Yaochi Dungeon.
Lian Yun, however, smiled and said, "Let's give it a try and do our best. If it doesn't work out, we won't force it."
With that, Li Si assigned a mission to Lian Yun and the others, and the four of them used the Teleportation Array to directly transport themselves to Yaochi Fortress.
Unlike the Xianjian Sect, Yaochi's Fortress was surrounded by three high walls and featured six massive robots standing at a hundred meters tall. Their weapons were not limited to simple long swords; they included whips and large fans as well.
At the Sect's Teleportation Array, when the four arrived, they found that over a hundred people were already waiting around them.
To be honest, Yao Yun'er was indeed a stunning beauty, but there were at least seven or eight other women nearby who could rival her in looks.
This showcased the extraordinary beauty found in Yaochi, which could almost be described as unparalleled.
However, Lian Yun was indifferent to this, and Xiao Jun paid even less attention. This slight distraction lifted Yao Yun'er's spirits, which had been somewhat low before.
The hundred breathtaking beauties likely knew Lian Yun and his companions' identities and their purpose for coming. So when Lian Yun and the others appeared, they all simultaneously clasped their hands together and said, "Welcome back to the Sect, Master! Welcome Young Master Xiao and Young Master Bai! Yao Yun'er is honored to host you in Yaochi."
