When I become a demon king, I want to change my department to the Taoist sect.

Chapter 870 Mission
The tug-of-war between the Zhou family and Zhou Qingyun is still going on, and there is a tendency for the situation to get out of control. It has not only caused an uproar within the sect, but even other families outside the sect have heard of it.

The Zhou family was thus placed in a position where they could neither rise nor fall. If they could not subdue Zhou Qingyun in a short period of time, at the very least, it would damage the family's reputation, and at the worst, it could even cause a chain reaction and shake the family's foundation.

Moreover, they also have to worry that if the stalemate continues, the news will eventually get to the ears of those ancestors, and the consequences will be even more disastrous.

Therefore, as this matter has not yet been resolved, Zhou Leng naturally has no idea about the Daqin household registration that he needs.

Compared with the overall plan of the entire family, the mission of a mere disciple in [Dust and Tribulation World] is not that important.

Even many people within the Zhou clan were somewhat dissatisfied with Zhou Leng and Zhou Ou, who had always protected him.

Although Zhou Leng is the best among the family's direct lineage and Zhou Ou is also a pillar elder of the clan, the Zhou clan is not without rivals.

They took this opportunity to make trouble, saying that if they had not chosen such a difficult true disciple like Zhou Qingyun, they would not have brought the entire Zhou family into the current quagmire.

Today, Zhou Qingyun really has a somewhat invulnerable attitude towards life.

Their parents and relatives didn't care at all and let them trace their ancestral roots if they wanted to. Even their younger brother, who had always taken good care of them, was abandoned. Now, it is the Zhou family that has to provide resources and money to support the practice and living of these "returned relatives".

There is no need to say more about the master lineage. Zhou Qingyun has never really become a disciple, and now he doesn't even go to Yuejiang Island. He even refuses to see those old disciples who come to persuade him.

She was also very cautious. She chose not to complete all the mandatory tasks assigned by the sect for the time being and accepted the punishment.

Even if the Zhou family wanted to use some shady means, they wouldn't be able to do it.

However, she turned around and accepted many tasks posted in [Dust and Floating World].

Such behavior clearly shows that the compulsory tasks assigned by the sect were tampered with by the Zhou family. Once accepted, they have to go out of seclusion to complete them, and there is a chance of encountering vicious attacks.

Such heartbreaking words and actions made the Zhou family so angry that their teeth itched, but no matter how angry they were, they couldn't find the culprit to vent their anger on.

Zhou Qingyun stayed in the cave every day and didn't go anywhere. Anyway, the huge world of [Dust Tribulation and Floating World] was enough for her to gain experience and support her practice.

Faced with such an opponent, the Zhou family was helpless. After all, even if they had the courage, they would not dare to use any vicious means in the sect.

When Zhou Jia Wuxia was running around for Zhou Leng again, Zhou Leng had no choice but to return to [Dust and Disaster World] and try to contact the seller who had said that he had the household registration.

But more than half a month had passed since the message was sent, and there was still no response. Seeing that the time required for the task was approaching, Zhou Leng was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

At this moment, he already felt regret in his heart, regretting why he was reluctant to part with the ten real talismans and thus missed out on important things.

In fact, he had already accepted the offer of ten real talismans at the beginning, thinking of working together with his clan brothers to get these key items first, and then talk about other things.

But after hearing that someone in the sect could also open a household registration in the Great Qin, he began to think more and more about these ten true talismans.

They have always regarded other disciples of the Three Immortals Island as grass, and usually think that the disciples should let him, the eldest son of the Zhou family, take what he wants.

As the saying goes, it is better to give it to friendly foreign countries than to domestic slaves.

Zhou Leng did not feel uncomfortable letting outsiders take these ten talismans, but if other disciples of Sanxian Island took them, it would be unacceptable to him, the eldest son of the Zhou family. Thinking of this, Zhou Leng was even more full of hatred towards Zhou Qingyun. He did not think that there was anything wrong with him exploiting other disciples. In Sanxian Island, the Zhou family should have such privileges.

Zhou Leng only hated that Zhou Qingyun couldn't just happily accept the enticement and hand over her household registration like the people of the Zhou family who had surrendered before.

Just when Zhou Leng had even thought of many unspeakable means to threaten Zhou Qingyun, the seller from [Dust and Disaster] finally replied.

The message is brief and to the point, fifteen real talismans!
Zhou Leng gritted his teeth and asked, "Wasn't it just ten real talismans before?"

"You also said before that the war on the front line has become more severe, so the price will naturally go up. I also took a big risk."

Zhou Leng originally wanted to argue further, but was afraid of missing the last chance, so he reluctantly agreed to the offer.

The transaction went very smoothly, beyond Zhou Leng's expectations. After he transferred the fifteen talismans to the public transfer account of Duobao Pavilion, he obtained the Daqin household registration certificate which was so expensive that it almost made him lose all his wealth.

In [Dust and Disaster], Zhou Leng looked at the small piece of paper in front of him that almost drained him dry, and his mood was very complicated. If the reward for this mission did not meet his expectations, he would not be able to recover for at least twenty years.

Because Zhou Qingyun's matter had not been resolved, the money was not taken from the family account. Although he was the eldest son of the Zhou family and had a high status, he had not yet achieved the Golden Core and had not accumulated much wealth. These fifteen real talismans were borrowed from many of his fixed assets.

The more this happened, the stronger Zhou Leng's hatred for Zhou Qingyun became.

"Even if you don't submit to my Zhou family, why do you have to make this a big deal and let everyone know about it!"

But no matter what, the household registration issue was finally settled, and the task could finally be completed on time.

"Don't think about it, just focus on the mission." Zhou Leng put away the household registration and said to himself.

Walking out of the quiet courtyard, Zhou Leng adjusted himself a little, suppressed all his thoughts, and then came to the mansion of his benefactor Yan Chuansui...Yan Li.

Yan Li, whose surname was Ji and whose clan name was Yan, showed how noble his status was, otherwise he would not have been entrusted with the task of being the Grand Tutor by the King of Yan.

In terms of official positions, in the State of Yan, apart from generals, ministers and various Simas, there was the position of Da Chuansui.

When it comes to the degree of the king's trust, no one can compare to Da Chuansui. He is in charge of conveying military intelligence and public opinion to the king and the generals. He can be said to be the eyes, ears and mouth of the King of Yan.

It was for this reason that Zhou Leng believed Da Chuansui's promise to introduce him to the prince without a doubt.

Zhou Leng felt that the opportunities he had in [Dust and Tribulation] were not inferior to, and even far exceeded, those of Zhou Qingyun, a county official.

Although the latter is temporarily in great glory, he is only confined to a county. But if he gets close to Prince Yan, he will truly reach the sky in one step.

Of course, Zhou Leng knew that the premise of all this was that he could complete this task perfectly, only then would he have the opportunity to succeed!

"Lord Li, I am ready and can set off at any time." Zhou Leng bowed respectfully, without any trace of the dandy image he had on the Three Immortals Island.
