Chapter 369 The Old Man of the Yue Family
A familiar voice reached her ears, and Jiang He looked up to see Long Aotian.
The mission team varies depending on the mission.
S-rank missions can only be accepted by teams; individuals can only accept them if they have a high level requirement.
You earn 1 point for completing an F-level mission, 2 points for completing an E-level mission...
You can earn 1 points by completing an S-level mission.
S-level missions are usually restricted to individuals and therefore have specific conditions set.
For example, the S-level mission that Jiang He received is not allowed to be received by cultivators with personal points below 10,000.
Jiang He registered a five-person team beforehand before receiving the mission.
Upon seeing Long Aotian appear, Jiang He stood up:
“Perfect, we’re still short three people. I’ll go ask Zhong Liyu and Li Ling.”
"Okay, I'll look for Bai Zhizhou."
As soon as Long Aotian entered the mission hall, the first person he saw was Jiang He, and only then did he notice that the S-level mission had been claimed by someone else.
Heng Yihang in his mind had already condemned him hundreds of times.
Fortunately, Jiang He accepted the task.
When Long Aotian was short of money, he often went to the black market to compete or to accept missions in the mission hall. Gradually, his personal points had already reached 10,000.
Fifteen minutes later, the five people, dressed in casual clothes, appeared together on the Skyrail platform.
Li Ling's short hair had grown much longer, and it was half tied up at the back of her head.
Long Aotian never parted with his sword, and the dark green sword lay in the sword box on his back.
Zhong Liyu and Bai Zhizhou stood on the left and right respectively.
Of the five people present, all but Jiang He and Zhong Liyu had obtained a Spirit Sword driving license.
However, this place is not like a secret realm, nor is it a holographic arena. Under normal circumstances, a sword can only carry one person; if there is more than one person, something bad will happen.
With all twelve points deducted from a driver's license and a one-year flight ban, no sword cultivator could resist going to class on their sword. Thus, on the very day this regulation was announced...
The monks' private road above no longer sees couples riding together on swords to show their affection, or the unscrupulous Indian-style minibuses carrying hundreds of people.
As soon as the five people stepped onto the skyrail, their outstanding appearance and familiar faces attracted everyone's attention.
Especially for Jiang He and Zhong Liyu, this station is the Wanjue Academy Station. The skyrail route passes through the cultivator university city, and the skyrail is almost full of cultivators from various academies.
"Wait, I think I saw Jiang He. Oh my god, isn't that Jiang He?"
"Damn, it really is. You hide for a moment, I'll take a picture with you."
"Okay, okay, I'll take a picture with you later too."
"Is it Jiang He from the Wanjue Academy? The one with the all-around command skills?"
"Yes, yes, and the other four members of the team, Zhong Liyu, Bai Zhizhou..."
Hearing murmurs behind her, Jiang He silently pulled up the hoodie to cover her long black hair.
Zhong Liyu smiled and struck a pose for the camera before turning around:
"Are we that popular? People recognize us everywhere we go. This must be an all-star lineup."
Jiang He glanced at Zhong Liyu.
Sometimes Jiang He felt that Zhong Liyu was just like her, out of place in this world, such as the comments Zhong Liyu posted on the StarNet that day, or her words today.
Jiang He turned her head and walked off the sky track.
Her fingers flew through the air, pulling open the task bar on the quantum computer.
[S-Rank Mission: (Haunted Ancestral Home) The ancestral home is haunted. My son has been tormented by a ghost cultivator for months. We earnestly request all cultivators to help exorcise the ghost and restore peace to the Yue family's ancestral home. A generous reward will be given upon success.]
Rewards for completing the task: Star Coins
When Zhong Liyu saw the final amount, her eyes widened, her expression no less than Jiang He's when she received the mission that day:
"One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, million... 100 billion star coins..."
"Is the Yue family really that rich?"
Bai Zhizhou raised his wrist, and all the information related to the Yue family collected in his personal terminal was compiled into a document and sent to the team channel:
"The Yue family is located on Yinhe Star. They are a Xuan-rank family and have business dealings with all the Xuan-rank and Huang-rank families on Yinhe Star. Ten billion is nothing to the Yue family, just a drop in the ocean."
Suspiciously, the youngest son of the Yue family was Yue Cheng's most beloved son. The ancestral home was haunted, and the son suffered harm; this price seems low, contradicting the image of a doting son presented to the public.
"Wow, Bai Zhizhou, you're really something. You analyzed so much information from just one mission. If that's the case, then the Yue family isn't genuinely trying to save their son. What's the purpose of this mission?"
Jiang He: "To silence the gossip."
Jiang He combined Bai Zhizhou's information with the gossip circulating online and quickly discovered clues that the Yue family head had cheated on his wife before her death.
Zhong Liyu was deeply shocked after hearing this.
No, the last hospital horror story was already a tangled mess, and now they've come up with some kind of infidelity literature?
Wow, city folks really know how to have fun.
When Jiang He and his group arrived at Yinhe Star, it was daytime, but the sunlight was weak, almost like dusk.
The city, dimly lit and with faint streetlights, was filled with a chilly atmosphere, and Jiang He felt the cold as soon as she entered the city.
Jiang He took two steps without making a sound until the goosebumps on her arms subsided.
Yinhe Star is so yin-heavy even during the day, no wonder it's called a paradise for ghost cultivators.
At the city gate, a few ghost cultivators gathered together. One headless ghost held a handful of sunflower seeds in one hand and poured them onto his neck with the other. Because he had no head, the sunflower seeds landed precisely on the wound on his neck.
"I almost forgot, I am now in my true form."
Another disheveled rogue cultivator was peeling sunflower seeds through his hair and putting them in his mouth. Behind his hair was a pale, distorted face.
"What I'm saying is that prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain!"
I've said it a hundred times, we ghost cultivators don't practice evil paths, nor are we ghost cultivators at all. It wasn't just that damned Yue family; the last group of academy cultivators just threw a Soul-Devouring Chain at me as soon as they disembarked from the starship and they were all bound... Can you please stop being so prejudiced against us ghost cultivators...?
"Who says otherwise? That old man from the Yue family loves to engage in group sex and always tries to shift the blame onto us ghost cultivators. The Yue family is so rich. Anyway, before I died, my body was split in two vertically, leaving only the front half. I have no one to carry the blame. If I have to take the blame, at least give me some money."
"Look, another group of cultivators has arrived, and they seem to be the same academics as before."
