C16 Task?

"Brother Ye Chen!" Why are you buying all these for me? I really don't need so much money! "

On the way back, Mu Hu kept rejecting Ye Chen's gifts.

"It's fine, take it!" Ye Chen patted Mu Hu, who was one head shorter than him, and laughed.

After struggling for a while, Mu Hu finally accepted it. Although he did not say anything, but in his heart, he had already treated Ye Chen as his brother. The past two days had been very short, but it was enough for him to see a person clearly!

"..."

At night, Ye Chen did not take out the "gift" he got from the money store. Although he believed in Mu Hu, his instincts told him that the fewer people knew about this, the better.

the next day

"Ye Chen, are you here?"

Mu Hu and Ye Chen were cutting firewood when a voice came from outside the yard.

"Creak …"

Just as the voice ended, the wooden door of the courtyard they were in was pushed open.

It was a young man in black with steady steps and a stern expression.

Ye Chen frowned. He felt that he was in trouble again!

"You are Ye Chen?"

Before Ye Chen could say anything, this person had already walked over to the two of them. The person who was staring at them was none other than Ye Chen.

"Yes."

Ye Chen nodded and said.

The black-clothed youth's expression did not change. "The Punishment Hall has a mission. Follow me."

"Ah?" Senior Brother, did you get it wrong? Punishment Hall... "Mission?"

Mu Hu asked in shock.

"A secret mission is not allowed to be asked, Ye Chen?" "Come with me." The black-clothed youth said without even looking at Mu Hu.

Ye Chen thought for a while, then nodded his head. He told Mu Hu to not worry, and then followed the man out of the small yard.

Mu Hu was extremely anxious when he saw this scene unfold. Although he had only been in the Dao Seeking Palace for a short period of time, he had heard of the Punishment Hall. It was a mysterious organization within the Dao Arts Palace. The main punishment!

Of course, this was not all. One of the rights of the Punishment Hall was to allow the disciples of the academy to complete certain missions.

However, the majority of them were inner court disciples, and it was not as if the outer court disciples had never encountered such a situation before, but without exception … They were all people who had offended someone, and they were being manipulated in secret!

As for the final result of these people, some of them went missing, some died, and some even came out unscathed … Very few!

Mu Hu nervously stood in the yard like an ant on a hot pan, his palms dripping with sweat.

"Right!"

Suddenly, Mu Hu slapped his head. He suddenly remembered that there was another talented girl who had entered the Dao Seeking Palace with Ye Chen. He would definitely find her and find a way!

Thinking this way, Mu Hu didn't care about anything else and directly rushed out. On the way, he asked for the location of the Southern Courtyard.

"..."

Ye Chen followed the disciple of the punishment hall. After walking for a long time, they finally left the east yard.

"Senior Brother, after walking for such a long time, let's take a break."

Ye Chen, who had been following behind, suddenly said.

The disciple in front of him stopped, turning his head, wanting to warn him, but when he saw Ye Chen's palm and what was on it, his expression changed.

"Whatever …" We'll rest for a while. " The disciple from the Punishment Hall looked around, then nodded and said. His hand moved quickly, and the thing in Ye Chen's hand disappeared.

This place was already out of the East District, so very few people came here.

"I didn't expect you to be so meticulous …"

The two of them arrived at a small hill and spoke.

He was not an idiot, he knew that Ye Chen had purposely gone to a place with only a few people as' bribes'. He had been silent the whole time, it seemed like he had already made up his mind.

"Senior Brother, you are flattering me. I just want to ask …" Ye Chen shook his head and said.

The Hall of Punishment disciple waved his hand and said, "I know what you want to ask. I'm only following orders. I don't know much, but you must have provoked some big shot!"

"A big shot?" Ye Chen thought about it in confusion. His first reaction was the 'Young Master Wei' he had met yesterday.

"I don't know who it was, but the outer court disciples that were called over by the Punishment Hall were few and far between. All of them offended some great figure that they shouldn't have provoked."

Ye Chen nodded, he did not want to think about who was behind this.

"Senior brother, may I know what kind of mission it is?" Ye Chen asked.

"I'm called Hua Lin, just call me senior apprentice brother Hua. I know a bit about this mission. According to the past, most of the missions are to capture the evildoers from the outside world. It's fine for inner courtyard disciples, but outer court disciples …" Lin Lin said.

Ye Chen finally understood that this so-called mission was actually to send the outer court disciples to their deaths!

Especially Ye Chen, if he was really an ordinary outer disciple, and he had only been in the Dao Seeking Palace for two days! To be called by the Hall of Punishment to complete this kind of mission, it was entirely a matter of putting him to death!

"Thank you Senior-apprentice Brother Lin, for letting me know this is a suicide."

Ye Chen said sarcastically.

Lin Hua was at the side and was slightly surprised by the outer court disciple's reaction. It should be said that it was from the beginning!

Regardless of whether it was the calmness on the road or his reaction after hearing the news, it all made Lin Lin feel that this Ye Chen … Not simple.

Especially when he sensed that Ye Chen was not in the mood for 'dying people', it was him who worried for him for a while. After all, he had 'accepted bribes'!

One Medial Grade Spirit Stone!

This was what Ye Chen had put in his hand just now. The reason why Lin Lin's attitude changed so much was because of it!

One must know that even the inner court disciples rarely had mid-grade spirit stones on them, unless they had some kind of background!

Thinking of this, Lin Dong was even more determined to know that Ye Chen was not a simple man!

"Senior-apprentice Brother Lin, let's go. We've almost rested."

Ye Chen stood up and said.

Lin Lin nodded. He wanted to say more, but he held himself back, because he saw that Ye Chen … It was as if he had become a completely different person.

"..."

"Disciple, someone is looking for you. They must be looking for something. Go out and take a look."

South Court

While Qian Jianzi was explaining some basic knowledge of the divination technique to Yuan Yingxuan and Chen Pei-er, he suddenly said.

"Ah?" Looking for me? "

Yuan Yingxuan was about to fall asleep, but upon hearing that, she immediately woke up and asked.

Qianji Zi helplessly nodded his head. Towards this disciple of his, he was truly somewhat helpless …

"It must be that big brother Ye Chen who came to see me!" "Great!" Yuan Yingxuan happily jumped up and rushed out.

Under Qian Ji's nod, Chen Pei'er also followed Yuan Yingxuan out.

"Interesting … "Chi Feng, looks like you're asking for trouble this time."

Qian Tuozi stroked his white beard as he muttered to himself.

"..."

At the edge of the Southern Courtyard, Mu Hu was standing there, sweating and gasping for breath.

He ran for half a day before finally arriving at the southern courtyard from the east courtyard.

"Senior Brother, I really have business with Senior Sister Yuan Yingxuan. I'm begging you, please let me in!"

Mu Hu anxiously said to the Southern Courtyard disciple in front of him.

"An outer court disciple wishes to see Junior Sister Ying Xuan?" "You must be daydreaming!"

Hearing that he wanted to see Yuan Yingxuan, this Southern Courtyard disciple said in disdain.
