Numerous glowing figures shot over from the skies above Hokuang Reiwon. Looking at the training grounds below them, as well as the glowing figures that filled the skies, their originally tense hearts finally started to gradually relax.
Only after experiencing the dangers at every step would they be able to feel the calming and gentle atmosphere of Hokuang Reiwon. In this place, they were able to completely relax all of their worries. As long as they were still students of Hokuang Reiwon, they would be able to receive the perfect protection of that gigantic figure.
Mu Chen's group shot into Hokuang Reiwon, as they directly headed towards the direction of the Mission Hall. As of now, they could be considered to have successfully completed their mission. Therefore, they had to first hand in the mission, before receiving the rewards that they deserved.
The Mission Hall was located in the north-western corner of Hokuang Reiwon. Surrounded by a range of mountains, a grand and majestic hall stood tall. Currently, there was a frightening amount of people walking in and out of the large hall.
The Mission Hall was also an extremely popular place within Hokuang Reiwon. However, the majority of the students that were able to come here to accept missions were those with some ability. This was especially true for those missions that required them to head to the Northern Heavens Continent, as they had extremely strict requirements for strength.
Under Su Xuan's lead, Mu Chen's group of four descended before the Mission Hall, before casually walking in.
The interior of the Mission Hall was exceptionally bright and spacious. Within the hall, there were numerous crystal screens, with various kinds of missions jumping about on them.
Mu Chen's gaze swept across the hall for a brief moment before he looked towards the center of the Mission Hall. There was a blood-red crystal pillar there. On the crystal pillar, there were some bloody words engraved on it.
The ghastly sight caused the crystal pillar to become the most eye-catching object within the vast hall. Every single student that arrived here would look towards the blood-red crystal pillar, as well as the names that were stacked together with blood, with anger and fear in their eyes.
"Bounty Board"
Mu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. At the top of the crystal pillar, there were three blood-red words shining with a dazzling light. Clearly, this was the Hokuang Reiwon Bounty Board that he had heard many times along the way.
Mu Chen looked at the top of the crystal pillar. Then, those familiar names jumped into his eyes.
"Number one on the bounty board, Mo Xingtian. Bounty of 10,000,000 Spiritual Value Points, one Peerless Rank Spiritual Artifact, and one Divine Tier Spiritual Art."
"Second place on the bounty board, Mo Longzi. Bounty of 8,000,000 Spiritual Value Points and a Deity Tier Spiritual Art."
"Number three on the bounty board, Blood Dragon Mu Gu. Bounty of 5,000,000 Spiritual Value Points."
"Bounty Board Rank 4, Gui Xiong. Bounty: 3,000,000 Spiritual Value Points."
“”
The blood-red words indicated the danger that those names represented. As for the high bounty, it caused people's eyelids to twitch. However, everyone understood that although the bounty was high, not everyone had the qualifications to enjoy it.
"Mo Xingtian's bounty is actually as high as 10,000,000 Spiritual Value Points." Mu Chen could not help but sigh in admiration. 10,000,000 Spiritual Value Points! That was practically enough to buy anything that one wanted. The jg blood of the Northern Sea Dragon was almost enough to buy two sets.
"Up till now, no one has been able to successfully obtain his bounty."
Su Xuan helplessly smiled and said, "That kind of person is already not someone that students like us can deal with. Even someone as strong as Shen Cangsheng can only find trouble with Mo Longzi."
Mu Chen faintly nodded his head. He had seen Mo Longzi before, and was extremely clear about how formidable the latter was. However, that Mo Xingtian was even more formidable than him. According to his estimations, that fellow might have already entered the Heavenly Completion Stage.
Even in the Hokuang Reiwon, the strength of a Heavenly Completion Stage was sufficient to obtain the rank of an Elder. In some of the weaker continents, they were practically able to dominate an area, and could be said to be a small Sovereign.
"Let's go. We'll hand in our mission. Furthermore, the Demonic Dragon Palace has appeared in this mission. We need to inform the Hokuang Reiwon of this news."
Su Xuan softly said. With light and graceful steps, she walked straight towards the middle of the Mission Hall. There was a gigantic crystal screen there, with students coming and going, waiting to hand in their missions.
However, in a place like this, there was clearly a difference in the level of the mission. Su Xuan walked straight towards the most central position of the gigantic crystal screen, where a white-haired old man was currently snoring. His ear-piercing snoring shook the heavens, but no student dared to disturb him.
Seeing this, Su Xuan faintly smiled. Walking forward, she gently tugged at the old man's beard.
"Ah!
Who's there! "
The old man, who was in the midst of his sweet dreams, practically jumped up in an instant. Holding onto his beard, he furiously roared. However, upon seeing the grinning Su Xuan before him, he snorted and said, "It's you again, girl. Just hand in your mission. Why are you so rude to this old man every time?"
"Hmph. You're always slacking off. In my opinion, I should pluck out all of your beard." Su Ling 'er also came over and snorted.
"You two girls."
Elder Liu helplessly rolled his eyes. Looking at them, he said, "You've completed your Heaven Rank mission?
That's fast. Eh? Why is there a Heavenly Fusion Stage brat here? "
His gaze suddenly paused on Mu Chen, and he was stunned. Then, he solemnly said, "Girl, you actually brought this brat to the Northern Heavens Continent?
Nonsense, what if something bad happened?
Could it be that one of you sisters has taken a fancy to him? "
The first part of his words was still correct. However, towards the end, his tone changed, causing Su Xuan and Su Ling 'er's faces to turn red.
"Damned old man, what nonsense are you spouting?!" Su Ling 'er's charming face was boiling hot.
"Hehe."
Elder Liu chuckled and said, "It's just a joke. However, this is against the rules. This brat's reward should be halved. Don't glare at me. This is only because we're acquaintances. Otherwise, don't even think of getting a single Spiritual Value Points."
Mu Chen was stunned. Halved Spiritual Value Points?
They were currently at the location where the Heaven Rank Missions were handed in. Therefore, when Su Xuan and Su Ling 'er arrived, there were many gazes directed at them. Su Xuan and Su Ling' er were quite famous in Hokuang Reiwon. Naturally, they were easily recognized.
Elder Liu's voice also attracted the gazes of those people. Then, they looked at Mu Chen strangely. This brat was only at the Heavenly Fusion Stage. He shouldn't have the qualifications to accept a Heaven Rank Mission, right?
Why did Su Xuan bring him along?
Could it be that there was some sort of relationship between them?
"Hey, old man, don't talk nonsense. The mission we accepted said that it was a Spirit Treasury. However, when we arrived at White Dragon Hillock, it was clearly a Spirit Treasury. So what if Mu Chen is at the Heavenly Fusion Stage?
Wasn't the White Dragon City's City Lord, Bai Xuan, killed by him? If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't have been able to return! "When Su Ling 'Er heard that Elder Liu wanted to reduce Mu Chen's Spiritual Value Points by half, she immediately became anxious and angrily said.
As soon as she said that, the surroundings immediately quieted down. Even Elder Liu was slightly stunned. He clearly hadn't digested the information in Su Ling 'er's words.
"A Spirit Treasury?"
"That brat killed the White Dragon City's City Lord?
How is that possible?
I went to White Dragon Hillock to do a mission before. That White Dragon City's City Lord was at the Heavenly Transform Stage! "
"That's fake, right?"
The surrounding people looked at each other in dismay, then started whispering amongst themselves.
"A Spirit Treasury?" Elder Liu recovered his wits and said with some astonishment, "That's impossible.
The information we gathered was clearly just an ordinary Spirit Treasury. "
"Nonsense. That Spirit Treasury was clearly left behind by the White Dragon Sovereign, who died several hundred years ago. Moreover, that White Dragon City's City Lord was a chess piece set up by the Demonic Dragon Palace in order to obtain the treasure left behind by the White Dragon Sovereign." Su Ling 'er snorted.
"The White Dragon Sovereign?!
The Demonic Dragon Palace?
Are you telling the truth? "
Elder Liu's expression finally changed when he heard those two names. He abruptly stood up, his face full of bewilderment.
"Hmph. How could it be fake?
In the end, even that bastard Mo Longzi came out. If it wasn't for Senior Shen Cangsheng rushing over, we wouldn't have been able to return! "
Su Ling 'er's beautiful eyes were filled with anger as she said, "We risked our lives to return. In the end, it's because your information wasn't accurate. If it wasn't for Mu Chen, none of us would've been able to return. If you dare to reduce his Spiritual Value Points by half, I won't forgive you!"
"Mo Longzi?"
A few of the surrounding students, who were paying attention to the situation, immediately felt a chill run down their spines when they heard that name. Su Xuan and the others had actually bumped into Mo Longzi?
Elder Liu's expression was solemn, and he no longer had the slightest trace of laziness. He looked at Mu Chen in astonishment, then turned to Su Xuan and asked, "Is what she said true?"
"Yes. Everything Ling 'er said is true. Elder Liu, if you don't believe me, you can ask Guo Xiong and Li Qing. Or you can ask Shen Cangsheng when he returns."
Su Xuan nodded lightly. "That Bai Xuan is a member of the Demonic Dragon Palace, and his strength has reached the Heavenly Transformation Stage Late Phase. Furthermore, it was indeed Mu Chen who killed him. He has contributed greatly to this mission. Therefore, Elder Liu can't do such a foolish thing."
Beside her, Li Qing and Guo Xiong nodded heavily.
The surroundings were silent. Even Elder Liu stared at Mu Chen in disbelief. He was actually able to kill Bai Xuan, who was at the Heavenly Transformation Stage Late Phase, with the strength of a Heavenly Fusion Stage?
How was that possible?!
Under those gazes, Mu Chen felt a bit uncomfortable. He helplessly said, "Elder Liu, I was able to kill Bai Xuan because of some special methods. It can't be considered my true strength."
Hearing his words, shock surged in the eyes of the surrounding people. They didn't care what methods Mu Chen had used. They only knew that this brat, who appeared to be at the Heavenly Fusion Stage Early Phase, had actually managed to kill a Heavenly Transformation Stage Late Phase expert.
Heavenly Transformation Stage Late Phase! The number of students in the entire Hokuang Reiwon who could reach that level could be counted on one's fingers.
Elder Liu stared at Mu Chen for a long time before slowly retracting his gaze. He extended his withered hand.
"Give me your Spiritual Value Plates. The reward will be the same as usual. However, you have to tell me the exact information regarding this mission. I have to report it to the Elder Group."
