C321 Mission!
Zhou Chuan was very excited. In a situation where no one was optimistic, Lin Cheng had turned the tables and killed Yuan Buyang, shocking everyone.
"It's said that Tong Chenen was so angry that he threw his favorite Jade Chip!"
Zhou Chuan laughed loudly. This time, Tong Chenen's reputation could be said to have been tarnished.
Lin Cheng smiled and shook his head. The battle between him and Yuan Buyang was actually just a narrow victory. If Yuan Bu Yang was not so arrogant and did not rely on his spiritual sense to attack, he was afraid that he would have to use the Green and Blue Fire in the end.
"It's a pity that Senior Dong Taiyuan didn't show up."
Zhou Chuan shook his head with some regret.
Lin Cheng said, "The core disciples are powerful. It's understandable that Senior Dong Taiyuan isn't willing to offend him."
In fact, Lin Cheng had never thought that Tong Chenen's influence in the sect would be so great. The six palaces were unwilling to offend him, and Dong Taiyuan was also unwilling to offend him.
When mentioning the identity of a core disciple, Zhou Chuan's excitement diminished significantly. He nodded silently and said, "Indeed, a core disciple has too much influence in the sect. They are the core combat strength of the sect. As long as it is not too excessive. No matter what, the sect will give them some face "
"The core combat strength of the sect?"
Lin Cheng was surprised.
Zhou Chuan explained, "Because they have already passed the first heavenly tribulation and there is still a lot of time before the second heavenly tribulation. They do not need to be distracted to deal with the heavenly tribulation..."
Heavenly tribulation?
This was the first time Lin Cheng had heard this, and he couldn't help but ask in detail.
Zhou Chuan didn't hide anything, and carefully told him what he had heard from his sister Zhou Changyue.
Only then did Lin Cheng understand. Only now did he know that after reaching the Divine Connection realm, the heavens would actually send down heavenly retribution!
He also understood why the status of core disciples was so high. No wonder no one was willing to offend them. From this, it could be said that as long as they did not encounter a crisis that concerned the survival of the sect... This core disciple could really be called the core combat strength of the sect.
Lin Cheng asked, "Besides the core disciples, isn't there an elder and Sect Master's personal disciple in the sect? Don't tell me they don't have to fight for the sect? "
Zhou Chuan said with a smile, "If the personal disciple reaches the Divine Connection realm, he will also become a core disciple."
"So that's how it is!"
Lin Cheng nodded. In that case, core disciples were indeed the highest ranked disciples in the sect. Their power had even completely surpassed those Deacon, and could be said to be the backbone of the sect.
"Brother, you don't have to worry. Although those core disciples have a high status, but they have to follow the rules." Zhou Chuan said, "Besides, there's more than one core disciple. No matter how domineering Tong Chenen is, if he goes too far, the sect will never turn a blind eye to him."
Lin Cheng did not agree with this. The sect might not sit idly by, but they would only act after Tong Chenen broke the sect rules.
But before that, no one would be willing to easily offend him.
For example, if he didn't kill Yuan Buyang this time, but turned the tables instead, he wouldn't be able to see how the sect would punish Yuan Buyang and Tong Chenen.
Compared to the core disciples, an ordinary disciple like him was too insignificant in the eyes of the sect.
Lin Cheng had long understood this point. Therefore, he had never placed his hopes on the higher ups of the sect. Only by being strong could he avoid offending them.
"However, brother, you have to be careful. Tong Chenen has been humiliated by you once again. I'm afraid he won't let this matter go easily. Perhaps there will be other tricks up his sleeve. You have to be careful." Zhou Chuan reminded.
"I understand."
Lin Cheng nodded, but his heart was filled with anger. He just wanted to protect his own things, but in the other party's eyes, he had just been humiliated by him. This was the logic of a robber.
He didn't say anything bold or heroic, but in his heart, he desired stronger strength even more.
Lin Cheng suddenly thought of Zhu Ziqiao's suggestion. Since he had already established the Purple Palace, perhaps he could start from now on, and try to condense the Elemental Spirit, and directly break through to the Incarnation Stage?
The gap between him and Tong Chenen was too great. Unless it was this kind of rapid advancement, if he were to catch up step by step, he was afraid that he would always be under the pressure of Tong Chenen.
It seemed like he had to consider it carefully.
Lin Cheng thought to himself.
The two chatted for a while, and Lin Cheng suddenly said, "Right, Elder Brother Zhou, after Ziqiao recovers, we will get married. I wonder if you are willing to be a witness for the two of us?"
Zhou Chuan's eyes lit up when he heard that. "Brother, this is my honor. I am obligated to do so!"
He was very excited. He was very happy for Lin Cheng when his good friend got married.
Zhou Chuan did not even address Ziqiao as Miss anymore. Instead, he changed his way of addressing her as sister-in-law.
When it came to marriage, the faint pressure that had been pressing down on their hearts was instantly swept away.
However, after a short moment, a person arrived. However, the excitement between the two of them vanished in an instant.
"Deacon Huang?"
Seeing the person who came to visit them, both of them were a little surprised. Lin Cheng asked, "May I know what orders Deacon Huang has?"
The person who came was a Deacon from the Soaring Peak. He was in charge of the miscellaneous items on the mountain and was in charge of the servants. He said with a smile, "You are too polite, Junior Brother Lin. I don't deserve your instructions. I am only here to convey the orders of the sect."
"Orders?"
Lin Cheng and Zhou Chuan looked at each other and saw the doubt in each other's eyes.
Zhou Chuan's expression changed and immediately asked, "Deacon Huang, could it be that the Punishment Hall wants to punish Lin Cheng?"
"No!"
Deacon Huang shook his head and said, "If the Punishment Hall has any orders, they will send someone here. I am here to convey the orders given by the sect."
Only then did Zhou Chuan heave a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't the Punishment Hall that wanted to punish Lin Cheng.
"Deacon Huang, please instruct me." Lin Cheng nodded and said.
"Junior Brother Lin, the sect has ordered you and Junior Sister Zhu to set off in two days to investigate the matter of the demonization of living creatures." Deacon Huang took out a Jade Chip and said, "The specific details of the mission are all in this Jade Chip."
"What?"
Zhou Chuan's expression changed dramatically when he heard this. "Ask Lin Cheng and the others to leave the mountain gate?"
Lin Cheng's expression also sank, and his brows tightly furrowed.
Leaving the mountain gate meant losing the protection of the sect rules. What this meant could naturally be understood.
He did not go to receive the Jade Chip. Instead, he asked in a deep voice, "Deacon Huang, who ordered this mission?"
Deacon Huang said, "It was an order from the Magic Hall."
Lin Cheng's brows furrowed even more. When Deacon Huang mentioned the Magic Hall, he immediately thought of Yu Zhichen, who he had met in the Magic Hall. This man claimed that Qu Yuanlu was a good friend of the Magic Hall's eldest senior brother.
Then, could this mission be related to Qu Yuanlu?
"There are so many senior brothers and sisters in the sect. We have only entered the inner sect for less than two months. Why did this mission fall into Lin Cheng's hands?"1
Zhou Chuan suppressed his anger and asked indignantly.
Deacon Huang shook his head and said, "Junior brother Zhou, I don't know about this. I think it's because Junior Brother Lin is very powerful and is more suitable for this mission."
Zhou Chuan sneered, "Deacon Huang, do you believe that?"
Deacon Huang was stunned for a moment, then he smiled bitterly and said, "Junior Zhou, I am only in charge of running errands. I can't decide who will carry out the mission!"
Zhou Chuan could not help snorting coldly.
Deacon Huang coughed lightly and said, "Junior Brother Lin, my mission has been completed. I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."
He handed the Jade Chip to Lin Cheng and said goodbye.
Looking at his hurried look, he seemed to know what this mission meant to Lin Cheng.
"Shameless!"
After Deacon Huang left, Zhou Chuan immediately said angrily, "Lin Cheng, you can't accept this mission. Or else... Once you leave the sect, those people who had been eyeing you like a tiger would definitely attack you without hesitation! Also, Tong Chenen, if he wants to take the lives of us ordinary disciples outside the sect... It will be extremely easy!"
Lin Cheng nodded slowly. He naturally understood this principle, but even though he knew this, he knew that it would be very difficult for him to refuse.
"Elder Brother Zhou, I'll have to trouble you to find out what the consequences will be if I refuse this mission." Lin Cheng said.
"Alright!"
Zhou Chuan nodded, "I'll go now."
He also hoped that Lin Cheng could reject this mission, because once Lin Cheng accepted it, he would immediately be in danger.
After Zhou Chuan left, Lin Cheng furrowed his brows tightly.
He knew in his heart that he might not be able to reject this mission. Tong Chenen and the others were waiting for him to make a mistake. If he refused, those people would naturally have a reason to cause trouble for him.
When the other party intended to give him this mission, he might have already thought of a backup plan.
But if he accepted it...
"Lin Cheng, what happened?" The commotion in the courtyard alarmed Zhu Ziqiao. When she came out of the room, she saw Lin Cheng's gloomy expression and could not help but ask.
"The sect has a mission for us..."
He told her everything.
Zhu Ziqiao frowned. "Are they trying to push us into a dead end? Who gave the order?"
"No matter who gave the order, I'm afraid we can't refuse it."
Lin Cheng said in a deep voice, "Little girl, it seems like we have to be prepared to fight with our lives on the line again."
Zhu Ziqiao nodded silently, but her heart was filled with anger and unwillingness.
After a moment, she could not help but say, "That's good too! Little thief, since this sect is so unfair, then there is no meaning for this kind of sect to continue staying. Since there is someone who wants us to leave, then we will leave!"
Lin Cheng shook his head and said, "Leaving the sect is very simple, but the real danger is after we leave. I have already asked Zhou Chuan to find out the situation and see if he can reject this mission. "
Zhu Ziqiao nodded and suddenly asked, "What kind of mission is this? If the mission has exceeded our strength, then we can totally reject it!"
