Cultivation: Beginning with the Heart Reflecting Heaven and Earth

As people gradually arrived, Lei Yunxing, who had come with Xiong Kaishan as usual, exchanged brief greetings and then parted ways.

Lu Qian looked at Mu Dong with some confusion, "Aren't you guys going to team up?"

In his view, Mu Dong and Lei Yunxing knew each other, and if they teamed up, completing the mission would be easier.

Mu Dong shook his head and said calmly, "Actually, our relationship isn't as good as you think. Besides, he also needs battle merits, while Xiong Kaishan doesn't need them as much. The two of them are more suitable to work together. If I were to join in, it would be a bit redundant."

Seeing this, Lu Qian stopped asking questions.

Indeed, before he arrived, Mu Dong and Mu Xue didn't talk to Lei Yunxing much, and their relationship wasn't exactly good.

In fact, Lei Yunxing's approach to Lu Qian was due to Tao Pili, and they are now just nodding acquaintances.

While it's certainly a good thing to have like-minded people helping each other, the problem now is that both Mu Dong and Lei Yunxing need battle merits, which is the fundamental reason. It's impossible for one person to accommodate the other.

"Alright, everyone's here, let's go!"

Jin Changgeng appeared out of nowhere, took out a flying boat, and slowly enlarged it. "Get on, everyone!"

Mu Xue followed behind Lu Qian, quietly approaching him and saying, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you!"

Lu Qian was speechless. He had at least passed the first level of the Myriad Laws Battle Tower, so why did he need a little girl to protect him?

However, his cultivation level was indeed lower than Mu Xue's, so he did not refute it.

Everyone boarded the flying boat together. Logically, Jin Changgeng should have said a few words, but in reality, he remained completely silent, simply navigating the flying boat towards the distance.

Most people didn't react much to this, and seemed quite confident, as if they already knew the details of the mission.

Only a few people looked a little confused, as if they couldn't quite figure it out, but the others didn't say anything, and they didn't dare to either.

Lu Qian saw this and felt a pang of emotion. If Mu Dong hadn't informed him beforehand, Lu Qian would probably have been one of those who were confused.

There's no way around it; wherever there are people, there's a social hierarchy, and true fairness is impossible.

Almost half a day had passed, and few people spoke. Everyone stood on the deck, looking at the ocean below, seemingly waiting for the upcoming mission.

Not long after, the airship finally landed, but not on land; instead, it landed on a larger ship.

The ship could be described as enormous, with rows of palaces on it that stretched as far as the eye could see. Many people were walking back and forth on the ship, looking very busy.

Mu Dong then whispered, "This is a specially crafted war artifact. Don't be fooled by its size; it's actually made up of many low-level artifacts, making it easy to repair. Once the war is over, it can be stored away in its various parts, making it very convenient to use."

Lu Qian suddenly realized that he had almost thought it was a Heavenly Treasure. However, such a large ship, even if it was only made of low-level magic artifacts, must be quite powerful. It was not as simple as Mu Dong had said.

"Follow me, everyone!"

After giving a greeting, Jin Changgeng led a group of people toward one of the palaces, where many people were already waiting. In the middle of the palace was a miniature model showing a triangular island, with a sect at each end of the island.

These are naturally the three sects of Biyue, whose mission is crucial and need to be eradicated.

However, Lu Qian could only catch a glimpse of them from afar. These people were just trainees, and their job was to help clear out some scraps. The real tough tasks could not be assigned to them.

Even if the three sects of Biyue are weak, they are still Golden Core sects. How could they possibly be able to fight against these Qi Refining disciples?

Before Lu Qian could figure out what was going on, he suddenly heard a familiar voice. Looking over, he saw Luo Wei waving at him.

Without hesitation, he told Mu Dong and Mu Xue and then hurried over.

Once Lu Qian was close enough, Luo Wei asked, "Which direction do you choose?"

Lu Qian didn't quite understand. What direction?

Luo Wei wore an expression that was both amused and exasperated. "How did your instructors arrange things? Of the three sects of the Azure Water Sect, one of them definitely needs to be chosen to take action. Haven't they chosen yet?"

Lu Qian was speechless. He thought the mission details would be discussed after they disembarked from the flying boat, but it turned out to be the instructor's mission. However, Jin Changgeng didn't say anything.

Normally, Coach Kim talks a lot of nonsense, but why is he so useless when it really matters?

Luo Wei seemed to notice Lu Qian's embarrassment and said, "The three sects of Biyue are Qingshui Sect, Biyue Gate, and Lingxi Pavilion. There are some interesting facts about their strongholds. Qingshui Sect's stronghold is the least dangerous and yields the least. Biyue Gate's stronghold is used to transfer immortal seedlings to the Heart Demon Sect. It is the most dangerous, but also the easiest to gain merits."

"As for Lingxi Pavilion, it acts as a merchant among the three sects of Biyue, and its stronghold is also a cargo port. The situation is rather complicated, but the profits are high, and you may gain some extra benefits. I suggest you choose this one."

Lu Qian spoke up, "I need to discuss this with my companions!"

Luo Wei smiled slightly, reaching out to stroke the hair near her cheek, seemingly a little disappointed. "I was originally thinking of taking you with me, but I need to gain merits, so I can only go to the Biyue Sect. If you want to be safe, please don't go near there!"

Lu Qian could only nod. "I'll be careful. Senior Sister, please take care too!"

After saying goodbye to Luo Wei, Lu Qian went to find Mu Dong and Mu Xue and told them what he had learned from Luo Wei.

Upon hearing this, Mu Dong gave a wry smile. "It shouldn't be that Instructor Jin was negligent. Ordinary people wouldn't know this kind of information. It's only because Senior Sister Luo has a special status, being the number one among the Ten Talents of Canghai, that she would be able to know this. I'm afraid Instructor Jin knows less than she does!"

"Besides, even if Instructor Kim knew all this, wouldn't telling us directly be tantamount to leaking exam questions? That shouldn't be allowed!"

Lu Qian thought about it carefully and it seemed to make sense. If every disciple of the Holy Land knew the specific details of the mission, they would definitely choose the easy missions to complete, and no one would take on the dangerous and difficult missions.

Mu Xue then said quietly, "Senior Sister Luo seems to have a rather unusual attitude towards Brother Lu. She rarely interacts with other people!"

Lu Qian immediately said, "I was able to get to know her thanks to some connections from my elders. Besides, although Senior Sister Luo seems unapproachable, she is actually very gentle, kind, earnest, and considerate!"

"Gentle and kind?"

Mu Dong and Mu Xue exchanged a glance, their faces showing indescribable expressions. They seemed to want to say something but dared not, which looked somewhat comical.
