Qinchuan and Lü Zi stood on the side of the street, watching Lv Xiangyang leave. Only when Lv Xiangyang's figure could no longer be seen did Qinchuan breathe a sigh of relief.
"My good grandfather is said to be gentle, easy-going, and approachable. Why did he become so fierce when he came to me?"
Qinchuan smiled bitterly, glanced at Lü Zi who was standing beside him, and explained, "I thought your grandfather was a member of the Lan family, so I was a little disrespectful. I'm sorry."
"It doesn't matter."
Lü Zi shook her head, looked at Qinchuan with a subtle look, and said, "I'm more curious about your relationship with Yu Cai 'er.
I've known you for so long, but this is the first time I've heard you mention this girl. "
Originally, Lü Zi thought that Qinchuan had a good relationship with only Zhou Lin beside her. She didn't expect that Yu Cai 'er would suddenly jump out, and she was actually his fiancée!
"I've already explained it."
Qinchuan sighed helplessly, and said, "I'm just a poor boy. When I was facing the threat of several big families in Xiyang City, if it wasn't for the protection of the Yu family, I would have been dead long ago. My relationship with Yu Cai 'er is really just that of a friend."
Qinchuan knew that Yu Cai 'er had some special feelings for him, but he always thought that it was just the dependence and trust that she had developed for him in the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range. It was a very simple feeling. As the two of them didn't have any contact for a long time, this dependence and trust would naturally gradually fade. At that time, the dissolution of the engagement would become a matter of course.
Moreover, Qinchuan really didn't have any improper thoughts about Yu Cai 'er. His mind was now all on cultivation, and he had no intention of having any romantic feelings.
"I accept this explanation."
Lü Zi looked deeply at Qinchuan. She wanted to ask Qinchuan how he would deal with her grandfather if there was no matter with Yu Cai 'er, but she didn't say it in the end.
"Come on, where are we going now?"
"Of course we have to go to the Mission Hall of the teaching building. We are now in the 8th level of the Refinement Stage, so we should accept some commissioned tasks to hone our strength."
The two of them acted as if nothing had happened, chatting and laughing as they walked towards the mission hall of the teaching building.
No matter if it was a new student or a senior student, they had to have at least the strength of Refining Qi Stage Level 8 to be qualified to enter the Mission Hall. When Qinchuan and Lü Zi arrived at the Mission Hall, they were surprised to see a sea of people in the Mission Hall.
"These should all be seniors."
Qinchuan looked at the people in the hall and said to Lü Zi, "There are quite a few official students and quite a few auditing students."
In order to distinguish the official students from the auditing students, the uniforms of the two were different.
"Let's go take a look at the Quest Panel," Lü Zi identified the location of the Quest Panel and prepared to go take a look with Qinchuan.
Just as the two of them prepared to go to the Quest Panel, a skinny figure suddenly flashed from the side and blocked their path.
"Hehe, if I'm not mistaken, the two of you should be the outstanding students among the new students, Qinchuan and Lü Zi, right?"
The skinny male student looked at the two of them with a friendly smile and said, "Truly an enviable immortal couple."
Looking at the person blocking their path, Qinchuan faintly smiled and asked, "Senior, do you need something?"
"Now that you've already cultivated to the 8th level of the Refinement Stage, you must have come to the Mission Hall to accept commissioned tasks. I just happen to have a large scale task that requires many people to cooperate. Are you interested in joining us?"
The skinny male student chuckled and said to Qinchuan, "We're all students of the same school, and I'm still your senior. Taking care of you is a matter of course."
Qinchuan and Lü Zi weren't fools. They naturally understood that there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. The senior in front of them was so cordial towards them, so he must have some ulterior motive.
"How about it?
Could it be that the two of you don't want to consider it?
You must know that there aren't many opportunities to participate in large scale tasks. If you miss this opportunity, who knows when the next one will come. "
Seeing that Qinchuan and Lü Zi were indifferent, the skinny male student seemed to be somewhat anxious.
"Come on, Wang Xian, you've already lost!"
Suddenly, a shout came from the surroundings. A tall male student walked over with a chuckle and stood beside Wang Xian.
"According to the agreement, you've lost, so these two newcomers will be members of our Black Wolf Gang."
"Consider yourself lucky!"
Wang Xian looked at the person who came and said with some displeasure, "But let me tell you, these two newcomers aren't that easy to trick!"
"Hmph, our Black Wolf Gang has always accepted people willingly, unlike your Red Pagoda Gang that still needs to cheat!"
The tall male student squeezed Qinchuan for a while, then looked at Qinchuan and Lü Zi and said with a smile, "Hello, juniors. I'm the Black Wolf Gang's deacon, Qi Le. You can just call me by my name."
"Senior Qi, what do you mean by the Black Wolf Gang and the Red Pagoda Gang?"
Qinchuan didn't directly call Qi Le by his name. Instead, he showed the respect of a freshman to a senior. He didn't want to be caught by others and made things difficult for him.
"You're freshmen, so it's normal that you don't know about this. Let's go sit over there and I'll have a good chat with you. Even if you're not willing to join our Black Wolf Gang in the end, it doesn't matter."
Qi Le appeared to be very easy-going. He led Qinchuan and Lü Zi to the Mission Hall's leisure area and sat down. Then, he began to clear up Qinchuan's doubts.
"There are many missions in the Mission Hall. Us seniors divide these missions into three categories, which are Solo Missions, Medium Missions, and Large Missions.
Solo Missions are missions that can be completed by one person alone. These missions are generally relatively simple. Of course, the rewards aren't too high. At most, it's ten credits.
Medium Missions are more difficult missions. They require the cooperation of many people to complete. The rewards for medium Missions are relatively better. If less than ten people complete the mission, each person can get 30 credits.
"Large-scale missions are more difficult and require more manpower. The corresponding rewards are also more generous. After the mission is completed, everyone will be able to get over a hundred credits, and there will even be additional rewards."
"And in order to work together to complete medium and large scale missions, us seniors have spontaneously established a few guild organizations with relatively loose management. Our goal is to gather people to work together to complete medium and large scale missions. Our Black Wolf Gang is one of these guilds."
Speaking up to here, Qi Le glanced at Wang Xian, who wasn't far away, and said to Qinchuan and Lü Zi, "Wang Xian's Red Pagoda Gang failed the last time they carried out a large Mission. Many people died, so they are now recruiting people everywhere. It's normal for them to target you."
