Rise of the Great Emperor Chapter 263

Chapter 263: Escorting Mission (2)

"Master, it's working…" Xia Ye felt that with this speed, he might be able to absorb enough Qi to make his breakthrough within a year's time.

Lin Xiao nodded. "Once you make your breakthrough to Golden Core Stage, I'll erase the mark."

He tried to compose himself but he could feel his head throbbing with pain. It was really painful and he quickly summoned Lin Hu, who had the gall to leisurely sitting in his consciousness and merely watched everything.

'What the hell did you just make me do?'

"Don't' worry too much about it." Lin Hu looked at Lin Xiao with amusement. "In fact, this kind of pain will instead increase your mental strength."

"What mental strength?"

"Hmm, it's another type of cultivation. You don't need to know so much for now and just focus on resting. The pain will turn dull with time and it's not like you can do anything for now."

"You damn dragon!" Lin Xiao howled in his mind.

Unfortunately for him, the tricky dragon had decided to sleep and ignored the raging Lin Xiao. Unable to bear with the throbbing head, Lin Xiao decided to sleep early with hope that he would get better tomorrow.

No matter how annoying that dragon was, Lin Hu would not do anything that could cause harm to Lin Xiao. Because of that, Lin Xiao was certain that he would be fine after some time. If he died, the dragon would also experience pain and be forced to stay in slumber for thousands of years.

It was not exactly a pleasant experience for the dragon either.

When the morning came, Lin Xiao was relieved that the pain was reduced. It was still throbbing, though. He really wondered how he would be able to survive this way.

"We're going now."

"Ok…"

Princess Lan Yi Hua looked at Lin Xiao and her eyebrows furrowed. "Are you alright?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Lin Xiao put on a smile and pointed forward. "Who will be afraid of challenge? I'm sure that I can do this just fine!"

The others: "…" was the story about Golden Core Stage 2 yesterday scare him?

But knowing Lin Xiao, they knew that he was not one to feel threatened so easily. In fact, it was more likely for him to be intimidating others rather than the opposite.

Blinking her eyes, Princess Lan Yi Hua stared at Lin Xiao deeper but didn't ask more. What she did next was simply to stay close to him as if she was his bodyguard. It seemed as if she noticed that he was feeling some kind of discomfort and might not be able to fight to his fullest.

They soon arrived in their destination: a large field filled with people. There were many people who looked like they were waiting. Some of them clearly glared at each other to prevent anyone from getting close.

From the looks of it… there were dozens of groups that gathered here.

"Why are there so many?"

"Obviously for the reward. They can get one spirit stone per person as long as they can escort safely." Prince Lin San shook his head, wondering just how rich that person was to be able to cough up so much money in one go.

Lin Xiao was stunned. 1 spirit stone per person…

There were already more than 100 people here since he didn't try to count. It meant that whoever was hiring them was not only powerful but also rich? What the hell!

Prince Lin Yan brought them to one side and then asked them to stay low.

Stay low…

For whatever reason, the other three immediately turned to look at Lin Xiao when they were asked that.

"Why are you looking at me?" Lin Xiao was speechless.

"That's because your idea of staying low before is a bit… too extreme." Prince Lin San sighed. Even he ended up knowing about the matter before because his friends were talking about how a new student was competing for the dead last position.

It was making people speechless.

Why the hell would they be competing for the last position when they could reach higher score?

Of course, it was simply because Lin Xiao was too lazy to compete. The difference in the spirit stones was not that much and it would put him in too much limelight if he were to show his prowess.

Thus, he chose that way.

Princess Lan Yi Hua also nodded in agreement.

Looking at that, Lin Xiao was speechless. He was not planning on doing anything today, ah! Stop looking in his way!

They were only sitting for a moment when a group walked to their side. A man looked at their badge and snickered. "Even mercenary rank F dared to come to this place? I didn't expect to see someone so shameless like you."

Those at rank G and F were usually at Body Training or at best Foundation Establishment. If they wished to reach rank E, they had to reach Foundation Establishment and had certain abilities. If not, they might not even be able to pass even if they reach Golden Core stage.

Lin Xiao raised his head and grinned. "Since the task is simply to escort, why not? Do you have a problem with us taking the loophole for more cultivation materials?"

He could see that the group of people who were coming to face him were only at Rank E. Their cultivation was only at Foundation Establishment. After fighting so many beasts rank 4 that were comparable to Golden Core Stage 1, Foundation Establishment was not a problem for him.

If they were seeking death, he was willing to play with them.

"You…"

"Do you think that you can get away safely. You'll die for sure." The man sneered and pointed at Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao arched his eyebrows. "Are you sure you're not the one who will die?"

"How dare you, do you know…"

"Now, now, you've been talking for so long while the others are already calling." Prince Lin San smiled. "Would you like to continue fighting and lose your chance to earn easy money?"
