“[Fury from the Supreme Lord]?” Lu Xun didn’t expect the quest to be triggered so quickly.

Clearly, this foreign race’s Supreme Lord already knew that his adopted son, Yi Xuan, was killed by Lu Xun.

“I didn’t anticipate, Yi Xuan must have held some status in the Supreme Lord’s heart,” Lu Xun pondered, “I wonder if the quest was activated due to Yi Xuan’s death or … because I killed Yi Xuan.”

He felt that the Supreme Lord was angered, perhaps because he, Lu Xun, was the one who killed Yi Xuan.

Lu Xun thought for a moment, then opened his mission interface. After he glanced over the details of the mission, his face turned serious.

The mission stated clearly that because he had slain Yi Xuan, he was now marked.

The Supreme Lord can track this mark through certain special means.

The mark would persist for 7 days, after which it would dissipate automatically.

During these seven days, he would be ambushed by forces sent by the Supreme Lord!

If he survived, he would be rewarded with five million Experience Points and a Purple Level Equipment Repair Coupon.

“The rewards are indeed substantial. Purple Level Equipment Repair Coupons are quite valuable. Even the Contribution Points Mall hasn’t released such a high-level item yet; it hasn’t fully opened its authority.” Lu Xun couldn’t help but feel enticed as he looked at the Purple Level Equipment Repair Coupon.

However, the mission’s risk level was extraordinary high!

From what he understood, the Supreme Lord would not take action in person. Perhaps there was no need, or maybe he had other pressing matters.

But who the Supreme Lord would send to ambush him was unknown.

However, am I, Lu Xun, a coward?

What’s there to fear!? I accepted this mission!

It’s as if I wouldn’t get ambushed if I didn’t accept…

Luckily, his Second Senior Sister and Mao Nanbei were by his side. This gave Lu Xun a great sense of security.

As Second Senior Sister even killed Second Priest, so unless it’s the High Priest himself or a swarm of foreign race elites, there shouldn’t be any major issues.

“Speaking of which, why hasn’t [The Sword Qi is Near] escape his predicament? Isn’t he the fastest sword under the sky?” Lu Xun mumbled to himself.

If [The Sword Qi is Near] was here, that would make things even safer.

After accepting the mission, Lu Xun felt that he should give Second Senior Sister and Mao Nanbei a heads up.

It took only him 3 seconds to come up with an excuse, using the same “Corpse Whip” excuse he had used previously.

He could casually fabricate the words of the deceased.

Yi Xuan was such a good-looking corpse, it would be a waste if it were not whipped.

“Second Senior Sister, I fought with Yi Xuan outside Blooming City. Before he died, he boasted that I was tainted with some form of mark. The mark will persist for 7 days and he said I would face the retribution from the foreign race.” Lu Xun looked at the thin Taoist nun and spoke.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaoman lifted her head to look at Lu Xun.

She spoke in her cold tone: “Close… close your eyes, quiet… quiet your heart.”

Lu Xun did as instructed by Gu Xiaoman and closed his eyes.

Soon, he felt a slightly cool touch on his forehead.

It was Gu Xiaoman’s fingertips.

After pressing her slender jade finger to Lu Xun’s forehead, she began to examine Lu Xun’s condition, searching for the said mark.

Who’d have thought that she would indeed find it.

Gu Xiaoman activated her spirit force, intending to remove the mark, but discovered that under such gentle circumstance, she couldn’t remove the mark.

She could use brute force to destroy it, but it would cause immense harm to Lu Xun’s body. If she wasn’t careful, he might face backlash, and death could be immediate!

Luckily, the mark seemed to align with what Lu Xun described, it would disappear over time.

That’s not to say the mark itself had a countdown, but rather, this world of the Heavenly Dust Continent didn’t accept this force. Thus, with time passing, the force that held the mark would be erased.

Gu Xiaoman put her finger down and her right hand was covered by the loose sleeves of her Daoist robe as she said, “It… it’s done.”

Mao Nanbei blinked her large eyes, the cat ears on her head twitched while she asked, “Second Senior Sister, how is it? Is the mark removed?”

Gu Xiaoman shook her head, indicating that she was helpless.

Upon hearing this, Mao Nanbei immediately stood up, gave a joyous jump, and mumbled to herself, “That’s great, we are going to have fun again!”

Lu Xun couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth, “? ? ?”

Does my impending ambush seem fun to you!?

Talk about adding fuel to the fire!

Of course, Mao Nanbei’s reaction could only stem from her absolute trust in Second Senior Sister, she felt no sense of crisis at all.

Such trust could only be formed over time.

Lu Xun shook his head, feeling no particular pressure. Instead, he asked, “What are two senior sisters planning to do after descending the mountain?”

The second senior sister did not respond, as usual, she loved silence. This suggested that the little loli was the one to answer this question.

Mao Nanbei lifted her small hand, stained with sauce from eating fish. She licked a finger oblivious of others, and finding the taste pleasant, ungracefully licked all her fingers. Her small tongue rolled, making it especially flavorful.

After she finished, she looked at Lu Xun and said, “Your mentor wants us to take you back to the mountain.”

“Oh? Is there any important matter?” Lu Xun was somewhat surprised.

Since he joined the back mountain, his mentor had always adopted a semi-laissez-faire attitude towards him, not guiding him much or demanding him to do many things.

As for the things that Lu Xun did, the mentor never interfered, always letting Lu Xun do whatever he wanted outside.

Even if Lu Xun passed the buck many times, using the mentor’s name as a shield, the mentor never commented on it.

Therefore, the mentor actively called him to return to the mountain, and Lu Xun was curious about the reason.

Mao Nanbei sat next to Lu Xun and said, “The mentor didn’t explain, but he said that when you get back to the mountain, he wants to take you, Little Li’zi, and Little Chan, to a place.”

“Where?” Lu Xun asked further.

“He didn’t say.” Mao Nanbei wrinkled her small brows and wondered, “Little Junior Brother, did you ever think that these old folks always like to leave their words half-finished?”

Lu Xun smiled lightly, tousled Mao Nanbei’s ears, and said no more.

Little kitty, you’re over a hundred years old, do you still think you’re very young?

“It’s good to go back to the mountain. It has been a long time since I’ve seen that stinky Ji Li and Little Chan. I miss them.” Lu Xun said in his heart.

As for Lu Xiaoyu… Lu Xun is still being hunted right now, so it’s better to stay away from her.

There is still a long time ahead, and Lu Xun is not in a hurry.

At the same time, this near and distant relationship can avoid unnecessary trouble.

The issue of the Foreign Race is the top priority!

“Then we’ll set off in a while.” Lu Xun told Gu Xiaoman and Mao Nanbei.

It won’t take long to get to the Demon Sect from here. When we get to the Eastern Region, who cares about the marks on the body!

This is the territory of the Demon Sect, dare the Supreme Lord try to send someone here?

The second sister nodded slightly, having no objections. Mao Nanbei, of course, didn’t care. She, anyhow, just wanted to eat following Lu Xun.

Just then, Lu Xun heard a familiar sword humming sound.

Everyone looked up to the sky and saw the Sword Qi slashing across the horizon.

It had left the large formation and was flying back here.

There were one after another Flying Swords behind it.

Some of them come from outside the West State and returned to the West State, some of them rose from various locations in the West State and gathered in the air.

Looking from afar, it was like a long rainbow.

The second invasion of the Foreign Race had ended almost everywhere in the Heavenly Dust Continent at this moment.

Therefore, the magnificent scene in the sky was actually even more sorrowful.

—Swords return to the West State.

…

…

The Demon Sect, the back mountain.

The mentor sat outside the Small Study, making tea for himself.

Ji Li and Lin Chan were comparing the character for “Sword” that he had written.

They held the brush in their hands, trying to copy such a simple character, it was surprisingly difficult.

They barely started, perhaps spending the whole day, only managing to copy the character for “Sword” once, or only half of it.

Yet in the process of copying, they were undoubtedly sharpening their own Sword Dao.

The two women in the back mountain had no idea what the mentor had done.

They only saw the mentor flicked his finger, and the character for “Sword” on the original rice paper flew away, just like a street trick.

The mentor glanced at the two hard-working women, smiled slightly, then raised his orchid finger and continued to taste the tea.

“The tea that I brewed myself always tastes the best.” the mentor sighed.

After the sigh, the mentor lowered his head to look at the hot tea in the cup, his eyes somewhat lost.

“Only…, it’s still not as good as you.” he sighed slowly.
