The Otherworldly God

Chapter 174

Le Zheng Shui Ling didn't dare to go back to Fang Yuan, so she could only go home first. She kept her mouth shut all the way and looked like she was out of spirit.

After entering the house, she refused to listen to anyone. An Ruosu looked at the thing she was holding tightly in her hands and recognized it as the union box at a glance.

Judging from the style of the box, it was a box used to store the highest-level task lists within the union. And now, there was a task of this level, and the only one left was Heilin, who had been sealed for decades.

In order to verify what she thought, An Ruosu used magic to snatch the thing from her hand.

"Mother?"

An Ruosu opened the post and took a look. The big red union seal on it was very eye-catching. She closed it and said, "You are not qualified to receive a task of this level. People from the union should not make such an omission."

"I threw a tantrum and caught it."

Seeing her angry look, An Ruosu put down the note with a smile and said, "I know my daughter's temper. You will not accept the task here, no matter how good the reward is. After all, the lives of your two brothers are more important than anything else."

After she said that, Le Zheng Shui Ling couldn't help but sat on the ground and cried.

"I clearly know that there is no such thing as a free lunch, but I still fell for their tricks. Now even if I bring this to the head of the family, I will have no way to defend myself."

"Who said you have no way to defend yourself? The Patriarch is not a fool, how can he not see through their tricks?"

"Then can I ask the Patriarch to return the mission?"

"It's easy to complete the task, but it's hard to avoid all the dirty talk and preserve your reputation."

Le Zheng Shuiling wiped her tears and sat up straight.

"I know, so I can only swallow my anger and take the mission back. However, this mission is absolutely unacceptable. There is no chance of success at all."

An Ruosu put her hand on the box and tapped it. She knew very well what kind of place Heilin was. Accepting this mission would undoubtedly mean seeking death.

The old man handed her over to him. Even though he hated her and disliked her back then, they had been mother and daughter for so many years, so there was still some affection between them.

"This matter is not just yours. You are the only one being plotted against, but the four of you are the ones who received the mission. You can't just deal with it secretly in the back by yourself. In the end, they will have to come forward. Go and discuss it with them first. I will find a time to meet the head of the family."

Le Zheng Shuiling didn't want her to come forward. In the eyes of everyone, she was a person who relied on her family connections. Back then, the old man came forward for her, and now she needed her mother to come forward.

But when she thought that this concerned the lives of Le Zheng Yuhua, Le Zheng Qiming and Le Zhengzhi, Le Zheng Shuiling had no choice but to put aside her face.

"Yes, my daughter understands."

She went over to get the things, but An Ruosu smiled and said to her, "Go wash your face. If they see you like this, how will they face you?"

"Yeah, then I'll wash my face and have lunch before going over."

"Row."

"Then my daughter will take her leave first."

"Go."

After Le Zheng Shui Ling left, Su Xian came out, looked at the post and brocade box on the table, and then looked at the door through which Le Zheng Shui Ling left.

"Master, this Black Forest is a place that you cannot go to. The people who plotted against them in Lezheng must know this clearly. I'm afraid they won't be able to escape unscathed."

"It's not appropriate for me to come forward and refute this mission. If I succeed, I will lose my reputation. If I fail, I will lose my life. I can earn this reputation again, but if I lose my life, I will lose everything."

"I'm afraid that Miss values ​​her reputation more than her life."

An Ruosu slammed the table and said, "Why, you go there knowing you're going to die? You must be a fool."

Su covered her mouth and smiled, saying, "In fact, the master is worried about the young lady, isn't he?"

The past came to her mind, and An Ruosu stood up and took two steps.

"Although Shui Ling is not my biological daughter, I have raised her to this age, so I still have feelings for her.

Moreover, in the eyes of outsiders, she is my, An Ruosu's, daughter, the great-granddaughter of the old man of longevity, and a native of Lezhengli. Knowing all this, they still dared to plot against her. This is really a disregard for us.

Although I asked the head of the family to be strict with her and not to spoil her, that doesn't mean that others can target her life. Time and time again, her life was exchanged for my child, and I won't allow others to abuse or plot against her."

"What does the master want to do?"

"We need to first understand why a task that has been sealed for many years has been brought up at this time before we can refute it."

"I'm going to check now."

"Well, by the way, check who is plotting against her this time."

"Yes."

An Ruosu turned around and looked at the post and the brocade box. She no longer wanted to think about the past and add to the pain.

After a long time, she went over, picked up the post, opened it again and looked at the bright red seal on it. After putting it down, she picked up the brocade box again. It seemed that Le Zheng Shui Ling had never opened it before.

She opened it carefully, and found a rolled-up paper with a red ribbon on it. She took it out, opened it, and saw that it was different from the wanted poster from many years ago.

It was written on it that the main goal of the mission was to go to the Black Forest and find the caravan that had lost contact a few days ago. The successful searcher would receive a huge bonus from the business house where the caravan was located, as much as a thousand gold coins, enough to provide a worry-free life for the next life.

Not only that, you can also get extremely high rewards from the Taoist Alliance. As long as you come back, you can get 50 points or Taoist medals. If you can bring the caravan back alive, even if there is only one person, you can be promoted to a higher level without taking the test.

These rewards are more than double what was written on the previous one.

An Ruosu was very curious. Which caravan had the guts to enter the Black Forest? Which caravan could make the Dao Alliance pay so much attention to it and reopen the dusty bounty? The things going on here could never be explained by just one caravan.

"It seems that the Taoist Alliance can't stand this thorn after all. I don't know how many Taoists will be sacrificed this time." She said softly while packing her things: "No matter what the Taoist Alliance wants to do or how many people they plan to sacrifice, just let those who don't care about their lives go. Outsiders should not blindly calculate other people's lives."

With a "click", An Ruosu closed the lid. Le Zheng Shuiling came over just in time to ask for something, so she turned around with a smile and handed the post and brocade box to her.

"You have to explain it to them clearly."

"Well, my daughter knows."

"Go."

"My daughter is resigning."
