Feng Wu almost had a heart attack!
The kingdom of Mikong… That was an empire as powerful as the Junwu Empire. The land was swarming with capable cultivators!
What kind of missions were these? Feng Wu stared at Master Linghu in disbelief and couldn’t utter a word.
She said, “Are these all…”
Like all superior figures, Master Linghu replied in a casual and indifferent tone, “Yes.”
Feng Wu almost choked.
She asked Master Linghu, “Are all the missions as difficult as these two?”
Master Linghu only glanced at the roulette wheel, indicating that Feng Wu should see for herself.
Suppressing her panic, Feng Wu looked at each grid in turn. The other missions weren’t as impossible, but they were still frighteningly hard.
She asked, “Am I going to do a lucky draw?”
Master Linghu said, “Yes.”
“I’ll have to complete the mission that I get?”
Master Linghu said, “Yes.”
“What if I fail?”
Master Linghu said, “The broken star piece will disappear forever.”
Feng Wu: !!!
Master Linghu said, “Complete the mission and you’ll have it.”
Feng Wu took a deep breath.
So, she couldn’t afford to fail the mission.
The consequence would be more than she could bear.
“What’s that?” Feng Wu pointed at the “12 Trials of Love” in the 9th grid.
Feng Wu had read each of the first 8 missions and saw that they were all equally impossible for someone like her to do.
The 9th mission was the only one that confused her.
Based on the roulette setup, the difficulty of the missions dropped as one moved down from the first grid, so did that mean that this 9th mission was a relatively easy one?
“Well, that one.” Master Linghu’s eyebrows twitched a little when he saw that mission.
Glancing at Feng Wu, he sounded very mysterious when he said, “That one is a no-brainer.”
A no-brainer?!
Feng Wu’s eyes lit up.
Master Linghu nodded. “I think that’s the only one that you have a chance of completing.”
Feng Wu thought so as well, so she made her decision. “I’ll take that one!”
Master Linghu shook his head. “That won’t do. Only fate can decide what you’ll draw, not me. No.”
Feng Wu thought to herself, “This 12 Trials of Love is the only one I can handle. If that roulette wheel gives me something like stealing an imperial seal or killing the best hitman of the Flying Guillotine, I’m doomed.”
Thus, Feng Wu held Master Linghu’s arm, swayed it back and forth, and begged him. “Master, master, please let me take that one.”
Master Linghu glanced at Feng Wu. “Nonsense. It doesn’t work like that.”
Feng Wu handed Little Phoenix to Master Linghu. “How about I let Little Phoenix keep you company for a few days?”
Master Linghu said solemnly, “No.”
Glancing at the table, Feng Wu spotted some Quling tea and said at once, “Master, how about I make some Quling tea for you? I promise, it’ll be as good as your own tea.”
Feng Wu tried her best to please Master Linghu, and the master almost surrendered to her sweet smile.
Master Linghu was never close to anyone, but somehow, this girl struck him as very likeable.
The girl was so genuine that he found her quite lovely.
“Are you sure you want the 9th mission?” Master Linghu glanced at Feng Wu.
