After a hundred years of ringing the bell, I became the ancestor of the sect

Chapter 24 Enemy Attack
"As expected of an inner disciple's mission, each mission is worth 300 contribution points. If I were a menial disciple before, it would take me 300 months to accumulate that much."

Li Qian was filled with emotion.

This task required a fifth level of acquired cultivation or above, the difficulty was medium, and the time period was short, so it was very suitable for him.

There are also some that require a lower level of cultivation and often take a long time.

There are also some with higher contribution points and a shorter time period, but they require high levels of cultivation.

A higher level of cultivation means greater risks involved.

He didn't want to take risks.

If he wasn't an inner disciple and had to participate in the mission, he really wouldn't want to take the risk.

"The mission starts from Linjian City to escort a batch of goods. The destination is Baibi City in Zhanghe County, 300 kilometers away. The departure time is five days later. Please gather one day in advance."

"White Bi City?"

When Li Qian saw the destination, he frowned slightly. His predecessor was the Li family from Baibi City, Zhanghe County.

He hasn't been back home for more than three years since he ran away.

If it weren't for this mission, he would have almost forgotten about this body and his family.

"This is something that happened in my previous life. It has nothing to do with me. Anyway, I will come back directly after escorting you to your destination."

He has no feelings for the family of this body.

Even my previous life ran away from home because I hated that home.

After reading it, Li Qian returned the booklet and left the mission hall.

There are still a few days left, so there is no rush.

However, he still needs to prepare well.

Even though this mission is low risk, we cannot be careless and must do our best.

a few days later.

Li Qian went down the mountain and after reporting at the gate of Shenjianmen, he left Shenjianmen on horseback.

It was his first time riding a horse.

Whether in the past life or this life.

However, his predecessor could ride a horse, so he has memories of this.

In addition, he is now an eighth-level acquired warrior. Although he was a little unfamiliar at first, he quickly adapted.

This was his first time going out after more than three years in the Divine Sword Sect.

Linjian City is about ten miles away from Shenjian Gate.

This city is quite large, with a population of over 100,000, most of whom are related to the Divine Sword Sect. It is said that a large portion of the menial disciples and formal disciples recruited are from Linjian City.

After entering Linjian City, Li Qian had no intention of wandering around, so he went straight to the mission assembly point.

Yongcheng Commercial Bank.

"Young Master Li, you're here really early?"

The manager Lin from the business who received the guests was very surprised.

"Is it early? Manager Lin, didn't the mission say that we should arrive at the assembly point one day in advance?"

Li Qian asked curiously.

"In fact, as long as we can arrive before departure, it will be fine. I estimate that the other inner disciples who have received the mission will not be back until tomorrow morning."

Manager Lin said with a smile.

He was a little skeptical. Was this Young Master Li's first time on a mission?
But that's not right, the requirement for this task is to be at the fifth level of the acquired realm or above, and inner disciples who are doing this task for the first time will not accept this task.

"Oh, there are others?"

Li Qian asked curiously.

"This time, the mission issued by our company requires five to eight escort warriors."

Manager Lin chuckled.

"Then I'll go back first and come back tomorrow morning."

Li Qian nodded, and rode away again while Manager Lin looked confused.

If the bell is rung late for one day, the upgrade of the magical instrument Chen Zhong will be delayed by one day.

What’s more, it will also affect your practice.

the next day.

After Li Qian rang the bell at the hour of Mao, he practiced the Wuxin Sword Technique twice before he came to Yongcheng Commercial Bank in Linjian City refreshed.

He was actually the first one to arrive.

It was not until the 9th hour that several other inner disciples who had accepted the mission arrived one after another.

He is still too young.

If I had known earlier, I would have hit Chen Zhong as well.

If you practice Wuxin Sword Technique a few more times, won't your skills improve a little bit?
Including Li Qian, there are a total of eight inner disciples.

Five men and two women.

Li Qian had never seen any of these inner disciples before. "Junior brother, you look unfamiliar. Would you like to introduce yourself?"

The person who spoke was a woman in white with a half silver mask on her face. Judging from her facial contour, she had a standard oval face and a very hot body.

Carrying a long sword and wearing a ponytail, she looks heroic.

"My name is Li Qian, nice to meet you all, senior sisters and brothers."

Li Qian bowed.

"Which peak?"

said another.

"I am just an ordinary inner disciple."

Li Qian said.

"Haha, if you dare to take this task, you must have some strength."

The man chuckled.

A cultivation level above the fifth level of the acquired realm can make many inner disciples back off.

For many inner disciples, the fifth or sixth level of the acquired realm is basically their end.

Only a few talented disciples can reach the seventh level of the acquired realm and above, and at least be able to become disciples of ordinary elders of the seven main peaks.

If one is even more outstanding, he or she can become a direct disciple of a powerful elder or even the peak master, and then be qualified to compete for the status of a true disciple.

Generally speaking, the powerful elders, peak masters and even sect masters of the Divine Sword Sect are all from the true teachings.

"I wonder what your cultivation level is, Junior Brother Li?"

The woman in white asked, "Brother Li, don't worry. We just want to get to know each other so that we can better allocate responsibilities during the mission. My name is Ji Su, and I have the seventh level of acquired cultivation."

"Senior Sister Ji, I am at the sixth level of the acquired realm."

Li Qian said.

He certainly wouldn't reveal the real truth.

Then everyone else also told their cultivation levels, and they were basically around the fifth or sixth level of the acquired realm. Ji Su was the one with the highest cultivation level.

It was not until noon that the caravan started to set off.

Li Qian discovered a problem. This caravan itself did not have any special guards. Except for the manager and leader who was responsible for transportation, the rest were just grooms and servants.

I only learned from other people that Yongcheng Trading Company was founded by an elder of the Divine Sword Sect, and cooperated with the Inner Sect of the Divine Sword Sect. Whenever people were needed to transport goods, they would issue escort missions to the Inner Sect.

The advantage of this is that Yongcheng Trading Company does not need to hire and train bodyguards for a long time, thus saving a lot of expenses.

Although the cost of hiring inner disciples from the Divine Sword Sect is not low, it is still much more cost-effective in comparison.

Five days passed in a flash.

The caravan entered the territory of Zhanghe County.

It is less than a hundred miles away from Baibi City. At the current speed, one day is enough.

There was no trouble along the way.

Since the caravan hired inner disciples of the Divine Sword Sect, in addition to the flag of the Yongcheng Caravan, the caravan also had a flag of the Divine Sword Sect.

This in itself represents a deterrent.

The influence of the Divine Sword Sect is extremely great, and it is powerful enough to dominate three states and twelve counties.

Ordinary thieves would never dare to target the caravans.

into the night.

The caravan stopped in a small town.

We will probably arrive at Baibi City tomorrow afternoon.

As usual, Li Qian and his eight companions stayed beside the goods, sleeping in their clothes, with one person on guard at a time.

Tonight was no exception.

As for the other grooms and other servants, they all went to rest.

Hearing the night watchman's sounds outside, Li Qian, who was on guard, knew it was already one o'clock in the morning.

He is in pretty good spirits now.

Every time he felt sleepy, he would strike the shadow of the morning bell in his mind, making it sound like a bell, which would make him feel much more refreshed.

The farther the bell sound is from the main body of the Chen Bell in the Divine Sword Gate, the weaker the effect will be.

When it reaches a certain distance, it is fixed at a value.

Suddenly, Li Qian heard some noises coming from far away.

high speed.

His eyes shot open.

Not like a wild cat.
At this moment, he felt a chill in his heart, moved his body, and suddenly turned over.

puff!
A cold light shot at the place where he had just sat cross-legged.

It's a crossbow.
