Primordial Treasure Mirror

Su Yang wasn't upset about being transferred, but on the surface, he still had to show an uneasy expression.

He looked at Xin Yuan, adopting a cautious expression:

"May I ask my senior brother why he wants me to leave?"

Xin Yuan looked indifferent, but did not refuse to answer; he simply said:

"I don't know the specifics either; I only received a message from the manager. This is not something I can decide."

"However, I must advise you not to get to the bottom of things. Even if you find the reason, it's very likely that you'll only be asking for trouble. It's better to remain ignorant for now."

Once Xin Yuan said that, Su Yang understood.

It must have been done by someone of a much higher status than him, at least an inner disciple.

Therefore, whether or not he can find the reason, he will ultimately have to swallow his anger.

Xin Yuan left after speaking, and told Su Yang to pack up and leave as well.

Su Yang didn't have much to pack, and leaving the spirit herb garden suited him perfectly.

He also wanted to explore the reasons behind it.

If it were just someone with connections being placed in a position and forced out his job, that would be one thing.

If someone is specifically targeting him, that person must have malicious intent, and he must be on guard.

Although Su Yang decided to investigate the underlying reasons, it was not something that could be found out in a short time.

His most pressing task now is to find a way to leave the mountain gate and head to the Luofu Secret Realm.

The secondary priority is to find a way to obtain Foundation Establishment Pills and establish a foundation as soon as possible.

Only then should one investigate the reason and see if anyone is targeting them.

After leaving the herb garden.

Su Yang first returned to his cave dwelling, and then went to the General Affairs Hall.

He wanted to take on a mission outside the mountain gate, so that he would have a legitimate reason to leave.

When Su Yang arrived at the General Affairs Hall, there weren't many people inside.

He arrived at the place where he received the mission, took out his identity jade talisman, and handed it over.

Su Yang has been working as a guard at the Spirit Herb Garden for some time now, and has visited the General Affairs Hall several times.

The main contribution is in the handover of tasks.

At this moment, he skillfully handed the jade talisman to the disciple in charge of accepting the mission, handed over the mission of the Spirit Herb Garden, and indicated that he wanted to choose a new mission.

After receiving the jade talisman, the disciple scanned it with his divine sense and suddenly looked up at Su Yang, his eyes revealing an indescribable meaning.

Su Yang keenly noticed his unusual behavior, and a slight unease stirred within him, a vague sense of foreboding creeping in.

His premonition was soon confirmed.

The disciple handed the jade talisman back to him, saying with an extremely calm expression:

"Outer disciple Su Yang, your contribution points for guarding the Spirit Herb Garden have been settled. However, you cannot select a task for the time being because you have been assigned a mandatory task."

Su Yang frowned immediately.

He wasn't frowning because he'd been assigned a mandatory mission, but because it all seemed too coincidental.

My task of guarding the herb garden had just been taken over by someone else, and then I was assigned a mandatory task.

Logically, there should be at least a certain amount of time between these.

A thought popped into Su Yang's mind:

"Someone must be targeting us."

He had been thinking that his position as the guardian of the herb garden might have been taken by someone else, and that he was just unlucky and had been squeezed out by someone with connections.

But now it seems that he wasn't forced out, but rather that person deliberately wanted to drive him away and then assign him a forced task.

Nowadays, the only mandatory task for the sect is to leave the sect and go out to do things.

After all, the sect only forces disciples to do things that are quite risky, as most disciples are unwilling to do them. For most other tasks, there is no shortage of people willing to do them.

Thinking of this.

Su Yang had a guess about the purpose of the person behind the scenes:

"He wanted to kill me."

Besides this purpose.

Su Yang really couldn't understand why someone would go to such great lengths to squeeze him out of his position as the guardian of the spirit herb garden and then assign him mandatory tasks.

To achieve these two things.

At least one Foundation Establishment cultivator must speak.

Even the top ten inner disciples do not have the ability to influence the allocation of tasks by the General Affairs Hall.

of course.

Su Yang didn't believe that he had offended any Foundation Establishment cultivator, causing the cultivator to harbor murderous intent towards him.

If a Foundation Establishment cultivator truly intended to kill him, why would they need to go to such great lengths? They could simply kill him and say he was disrespectful. No one would stand up for a mere outer disciple like him.

Therefore, the person behind the scenes should be a Qi Refining cultivator with a Foundation Establishment background.

"A Qi Refining cultivator with Foundation Establishment background also harbors murderous intent towards me."

After much thought, Su Yang realized that there was only one person in the sect who met this criterion.

"Yu Shuang".

Su Yang silently recited the name in his heart.

Because Su Yang was Min Yue's alchemist, Yu Shuang took her anger out on him.

Not only did they whip him several times, but they also sent outer disciples to ambush and kill him, only to have him kill them instead.

Lin Huan, the Foundation Establishment disciple, was also hostile towards Su Yang and targeted him at every turn because of Yu Shuang.

If Su Yang hadn't been strong enough, he probably would have died in the secret realm.

Su Yang had kept these things in mind and had long wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge.

However, since returning to his sect, he has been unable to find out any news about Yu Shuang, so he had no choice but to suppress his killing intent for the time being.

Now this has happened.

Fueled by a mix of old and new grudges, Su Yang's murderous intent surged once more.

He sneered inwardly:

"If it really is her, maybe this time I'll have a chance for revenge!"

Su Yang had previously thought that even if he found out about Yu Shuang, it would be difficult to deal with an inner disciple within the sect, so it would be best to do it outside the sect.

If it really is Yu Shuang this time, she will likely take action herself, and in that case, he might be able to get his revenge.

After all, with his current strength, unless a Foundation Establishment cultivator personally takes action, he really doesn't think anyone among the Qi Refining cultivators can reliably defeat him.

Even if Yu Shuang had reached the Qi Refining Perfection stage during this period, Su Yang was confident that he could defeat her, or even kill her.

Thinking of this, Su Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at the disciple before him and asked:

"What is my mandatory task?"

The disciple was slightly surprised to see Su Yang's calm expression, clearly not expecting an outer disciple to be so indifferent to being assigned a mandatory task.

He had also informed many outer disciples about the mandatory missions during this period. Most of those outer disciples were devastated, and none of them could remain as calm as Su Yang.

He gave Su Yang a slightly higher opinion of him and replied:

"Your task is simple: just deliver a batch of cultivation resources to Qingfeng Market, which is sixty miles away."

"Give the cultivation resources to the town keeper there, and then you can come back to hand over the mission."

Su Yang nodded calmly:

"Understood."

Su Yang retrieved the jade talisman, went to a side hall to collect the cultivation resources needed for the mission, and then returned to his cave.

After a day of practice.

The next day, he left the mountain gate, used his lightness spell, and headed towards Qingfeng Market.
