<h4>Chapter 1487: Chapter 1484: So What If We Kill Xu Wendong?</h4>


    This Level 4 Task is not that difficult.


    But the reward is quite generous.


    As long as the task ispleted, one can receive a thousand Contribution Points.


    The task is to go to Yuxu Cave, three thousand miles east, to find the relics of the Yuxudong Cave Master.


    Lu Shuling’s eyes wereplex as he spoke softly, "Master Yu Xu was a well-known Loose Cultivator in the Immortal Realm, and his Cultivation Level had reached the Ninth-level Immortal Monarch Realm."


    "He repeatedly refused the Heavenly Court’s recruitment and lived an ordinary life with his wife and daughter."


    "But the appearance of the Other Races shattered the peace of the world."


    "In fact, with his Cultivation Level, he could have easily detached himself and taken his wife and daughter into the Mortal World to escape the chaos of war."


    "But on the eve of disaster, he stood up and saved the people of the world from fire and water."


    "Half of the poption in our Underground City was saved by Master Yu Xu."


    "Unfortunately, Master Yu Xu eventually exhausted his strength."


    "However, before his death, he chose to self-destruct his body."


    "In a final heroic act, he annihted dozens of Immortal Monarch-level Other Races."


    Xu Wendong held deep respect for Master Yu Xu.


    Even though they had never met.


    Yet, there was a profound simrity.


    Both had the ambition to sacrifice themselves for the greater good and save the world.


    It’s a pity, separated by Yin and Yang, he could not admire Master Yu Xu’s grace.


    "This task requires three people toplete simultaneously. Why don’t we team up and then find another teammate?" Xu Wendong looked at Lu Shuling.


    Lu Shuling shook his head slightly, with a hint of apology in his eyes: "I just entered the True Immortal Realm and need toplete the True Immortal Realm’s assessment task, so I can’t apany you to Yuxu Cave."


    "But don’t worry, I can help you find two teammates." With that, she took out a Communication Jade Card and sent messages to two of her friends.


    A momentter.


    A figure dressed in a ck brocade robe and a white long dress entered the Tianji Pavilion hand in hand.


    The man wore a well-tailored ck brocade robe, the robe shimmering like the deepest starry sky.


    He stood tall, his movements revealing an extraordinary demeanor.


    His face was handsome and dashing, with well-defined features; his deep eyes shed with wisdom and resolve, his nose was high and straight, and the corners of his lips slightly upturned, carrying an indescribable charm.


    The woman, on the other hand, wore a pure white long dress, the hem gently swaying like a white lotus blooming in the morning mist.


    Her figure was graceful, the curves exquisite, and the dress perfectly outlined her elegant form.


    Her appearance was stunningly beautiful, her skin fairer than snow, with a hint of gentle yet mature charm between her brows, her lips slightly open, neither smiling nor not, exuding the unique allure and style of a mature woman.


    "Junior apprentice-sister, what did you call us here for?" the woman asked with a smile. Her name was Xue Yan, the senior sister of Lu Shuling, formerly the third senior sister of the Lingyan Pavilion.


    The man, on the other hand, was named Chen Ye, the eldest senior brother of the Lingyan Pavilion.


    He did not speak, but looked at Xu Wendong with curiosity.


    This was his first time seeing the junior apprentice-sister walk so close to someone of the opposite sex.


    Also,


    The other party was a Cultivator of the Earth Immortal Realm.


    "Wait, junior apprentice-sister, did you break through?" Xue Yan looked at Lu Shuling in disbelief, only now sensing her aura had obviously changed.


    Chen Ye’s eyes also lit up with dazzling brilliance, unexpectedly, the junior apprentice-sister had stepped into the True Immortal Realm.


    Although the distance between the Heavenly Immortal Realm and the True Immortal Realm is only a thin line, it is a chasm many people struggle to cross!


    Even these two, once Heavenly Prides of the Lingyan Pavilion, were trapped at the Heavenly Immortal Peak for years without breaking through.


    "I was just lucky, and fortunately stepped into the True Immortal Realm." Lu Shuling said with a smile, not mentioning the opportunity she gained through Dual Cultivation with Xu Wendong.


    "Senior brother, third senior sister, let me introduce you, this is Young Master Xu, Xu Wendong, a high disciple of Senior Han, and also my friend." Lu Shuling blushed as she briefly introduced Xu Wendong’s identity, then continued, "Didn’t you mention earlier that you wanted to go to Yuxu Cave toplete a task and were just missing a teammate?"


    "Young Master Xu also wants toplete this task, so I thought of getting you to team up."


    Chen Ye and Xue Yan did not express their attitudes immediately but looked at Xu Wendong with slight surprise.


    Unexpectedly, he was the rising Star of Cultivation in the city.


    One has to say, it was quite unexpected.


    Also.


    They could both see from Lu Shuling’s shy expression that Xu Wendong was clearly more than just her friend.


    Regaining herself, Xue Yan said with a bit of difficulty, "Junior-apprentice sister, we don’t mind bringing Young Master Xu along to carry out the task."


    "But, any task carries risks, let alone this is a Level 4 Task."


    "If we encounter danger during the task, with the strength of senior brother and me, we would have a hard time taking full care of him!"


    It must be said.


    Xue Yan’s emotional intelligence was quite high; even though she didn’t want to bring Xu Wendong along for the task, she spoke so perfectly that no fault could be found.


    Lu Shuling smiled: "Third senior sister, I understand your concerns, but Young Master Xu is not as weak as you imagine. He not only knows Alchemy but is also proficient in Formations."


    "A few days ago, when we returned to the Lingyan Pavilion to collect herbs, we encountered Other Races, and it was he who controlled a formation to severely injure them."


    "Having him by your side on this journey will not be a burden to you."


    "He might even be able to assist you."


    Xue Yan showed a difficult expression, then looked at Chen Ye, as if seeking his opinion.


    "Since the junior apprentice-sister said so, then let Young Master Xu apany us to the Yuxu Cave tomorrow morning!" Chen Ye’s face showed no emotion.


    Lu Shuling beamed with a bright smile: "Alright, let’s meet at the city gate tomorrow to carry out this task together!" With that, she had Xu Wendong take out his Dragon Card for identification and handed it to the staff at the Tianji Pavilion for registration.


    Then she waved goodbye with Xu Wendong to senior brother and third senior sister.


    Xue Yan looked somewhat displeased and said, "Senior brother, why did you agree to bring this guy?"


    Though Xu Wendong was about to study Alchemy under Han Hexiang and his status in the Underground City would rise ordingly.


    But in Xue Yan’s eyes, he was ultimately just a junior of the Earth Immortal Realm, a burden.


    Chen Ye sighed helplessly: "I don’t want to bring this burden either, but I also can’t refuse the junior apprentice-sister’s request, after all, she rarely asks us for help."


    "Moreover, I want to see if this guy is truly proficient in Formations!" With that, a hint of coldness shed in his eyes.


    Xue Yan shivered slightly, her beautiful eyes showing a hint of shock: "Senior brother, you wouldn’t be nning to take the opportunity to kill Xu Wendong, would you?"


    Chen Ye showed no concealment of his killing intent: "The junior apprentice-sister is innocent by nature, I worry she might be deceived by Xu Wendong’s sweet words. If so, what harm is there in killing him?"
