Legend of Xiaolong

Chapter 578
"Mercenary Guild?" Hearing this, I asked back, and then suddenly realized.

If it wasn't there, how could the city lord of Xuedu City know that we have come here, and there are so many people coming and going, if the city lord pays attention, wouldn't he be exhausted.

"That's right, boy, it's the mercenary guild. It's a special place in Xuedu City. The people who come and go are all powerful experts, so I have to send some people to strictly monitor it to prevent some people from entering the city." There was a dispute in the city, which disturbed the law and order of Xuedu City, but I didn't expect that person to report to him when he saw Young Master Xiao today." The city lord explained with a smile.

"So that's the case, so I don't know if Xuedu City under the rule of the city lord is still peaceful?" I asked with deep meaning.

Sure enough, the eyes of the old city lord changed when he heard the words, and he took a deep look at me and said: "It seems that Mr. Xiao also inquired about something in the guild, yes, although this Xuedu city looks peaceful, the surrounding areas There are not many sects, but there are many unknown sects in the city."

I was surprised in my heart. When I heard the mercenary guild talk about this time, I didn't pay attention to it. I didn't expect that such a thing really happened.

"Has the city lord heard of any crooked ways?" I asked.

"Hehe, I've never heard of it. Xuedu City has a long history, so there are inevitably some family forces secretly growing in the city, and the Poison Master faction is an example. Poison masters that are rarely seen in the outside world, this Xuedu City I don’t know how many highly cultivated poison masters are still here.” The city lord said.

Seeing that we were still puzzled, he asked: "For example, the Wang family, the Zhao family and the Shangguan family, these three major families now occupy a lot of shops and stores in this Xuedu city, and now they have vaguely formed a situation of dominance by the three families. , it was okay when the poison masters were all in the City Lord's Mansion, but now the City Lord's Mansion is only as powerful as their family."

I can't help being a little shocked, such a situation has already appeared in Xuedu City today. It seems that the City Lord's Mansion can't suppress the forces in the city anymore?

"There are still such things, so it seems that Xuedu City is going to be in chaos?" I said helplessly.

"We came this time to bring bad news to the city lord. We met a group of men in black before. They were full of evil spirits, and there was a little madness on their expressions. They had attacked some livestock before. We chased them Have you ever heard of the City Lord who came here but disappeared?" Huangfu Yi went on to tell us the purpose of our visit this time.

The city lord was shocked when he heard the words, and the poison master also hurriedly asked: "Is this serious? This, this is a big matter, and it must be strictly investigated. If there is another incident of the demon way, this city of Xuedu will be serious." Something big is going to happen.”

"Quick, come and investigate this matter thoroughly immediately. We must find out where these people are." The city lord immediately ordered.

After talking for a long time, I didn't find out anything about the man in black from the city lord's mansion. Instead, I learned about the situation of the three independent families in the city.

Our group had no choice but to live in the city lord's mansion for the time being, and had no clues for a while. We had to wait until the next time these men in black appeared again to get some clues. More people are on the streets.

"It seems that we really won't be able to find those people in a short period of time. We can only find them when they appear again. What shall we do next?" Nangong Yin lay on the wooden bed Said.

Huangfu Yi and I looked at the night sky outside through the window.

"Maybe we have to improve our strength here first, and then we can go back to the central region to seek revenge from the Holy Sect after we have the strength." Huangfu Yi said lightly.

"That's right, our current strength is still not enough, we can only improve our strength first in this Qiling Realm." I also think what Huangfu Yi said makes sense.

"But how do we improve our strength? When we were in Zhongyu, we still had the support and resources of the sect. Now we are the only ones here. If we want to improve our strength, it may take a long time, right?" Nangong Yin said.

I sat up suddenly, they couldn't see the surprise in my eyes in the night, I suddenly thought of an idea and said: "Since we joined the mercenary guild, why don't we use this to improve our own strength?"

"You mean, we also go to the mercenary guild to accept the mission?" Nangong Yin said.

"That's right, let's go to the mercenary guild to accept a mission tomorrow morning. Since we don't have the resources of the sect, let's rely on our own battles to improve our strength!" I said.

The three of us finally made a decision, got up early the next morning, and went to the mercenary guild, because Fengyun Shuangsha is really too strong, if we carry out the mission with us, I am afraid we will have no chance to make a move, so He stayed and waited for the man in black to appear.

Because it was too early and there were not many people here, the three of us saw the woman in blue standing there as soon as we entered the door.

Seeing that there was still a little tiredness on her pretty face, I smiled and asked, "Miss Sister, why did you come so early?"

"Hey, it's you again. This is my job. It's the same as your mission. My mission is to guide and answer you newcomers here. So, are you here so early to accept the mission?" The woman in blue Said.

"Well, my name is Xiao Long, I don't know your name, miss?" I nodded and smiled, now there is no one here, there are a lot of task lists, Huangfu Yi and Nangong Yin are choosing, and I have nothing to do with this Beautiful woman talking.

"Hey, I don't know how much older than you, you still go to pick up your mission with peace of mind, hand it over to me after choosing the mission, I will help you to pick it up, but you have to remember, you are newcomers , I still don’t understand the dangers of this task, so I want to remind you that you must accept the task according to your own strength!” The woman said to me with a slight smile.

Against the background of a blue dress, her skin looks fairer, her eyes are bright and her teeth are white, her eyebrows are curved with willow leaves, her pretty appearance makes people's eyes shine, and now she smiles gently, making people unable to move their eyes away.

"Liar, you can't tell that you are older than me!" I pretended to be wronged and muttered, and then picked out the mission with Huangfu Yi Nangongyin and the others.

The woman covered her mouth and smiled amused by my appearance. Most of the mercenary guilds are middle-aged men, so young people like me are rare, which makes it easy for the women who often guide here to Made me laugh.

I sneaked a glance, secretly happy in my heart, it is a happy thing to be able to make such a beauty smile.

Next, I also picked up the task list and looked at it.

"Warcraft Forest, hunt poisonous bees, hunt and kill 25 poisonous bees, get beast crystals, the task level is one level, and the task rewards ten low-level spars; Wolf, to get the magic crystal, the task level is level two, and the task reward is [-] low-level crystals; the horse bandit in the west of the city, the task level is three, the task reward is fifty low-level crystals..." Such characters are all arranged on the table, The strength of the task target is also marked on the back. Only those with the strength of the Douwang, the strength of the Douhuang, and the strength of the Douzong can be accepted.

"Then let's take on the task of this Shadow Leopard. It doesn't seem difficult to kill ten Shadow Leopards. Why don't we take a few together and finish it together?" Nangong Yin pointed to a third-level task Said.

"Yeah, this one seems to be more difficult, kill ten poisonous scorpion kings!" Huangfu Yi also said.

The woman in blue who heard them talking at the side frowned, and couldn't help reminding: "I still want to remind you that these tasks are much more difficult than you imagined, and you will encounter all kinds of tasks. There is such a danger, so I advise you to choose carefully!"

"Well, that's right, we still don't want to take too many, or there is a real danger that we won't be able to complete any of them." I said while checking the task with a jade pendant.

The woman in blue smiled when she heard the words, nodded and was about to speak, but was held back by my next sentence.

"Let's just pick one up. The more difficult it is, the more difficult it will be for us to have the chance to practice. Let's take this fourth-order task, Hua Snake King. Hearing the name, I think this monster must be good!" I said with a smile.

The woman in blue blushed when she heard the words, and said angrily: "Have you listened to me? This task is not as easy as you imagined. If you are not careful, your life will be killed. You are young. Take it easy, don't be brave!"

I looked at her strangely, but I didn't expect that this woman is not only beautiful, but also kind, and I couldn't help but feel a little good in my heart. I nodded and said, "I know, just because I listened to you. We didn't accept the mission of the Shadow Tiger."

"Well, yes, with our strength, it's easy to kill these monsters, right?" Nangong Yin also asked Huangfu Yi.

Huangfu Yi faintly shook the folding fan in his hand and nodded.

Seeing the appearance of the three of us, the woman in blue felt a little annoyed that we didn't listen to the advice, but she knew that we couldn't stop our wishes, she sighed secretly, and tied our talisman, standing on a huge stone platform behind her After sweeping, a white light flashed, and it was returned to us.

"If you find that things cannot be violated, you must not fight for your life, otherwise life and death will have nothing to do with our mercenary guild. You are still young, and you can continue to improve through concentrating on cultivation. There is no need to improve yourself through this method. "Qianqian handed over the talisman, and reminded again with a little worry.
