Lord Xue Ying's

Chapter 35 – Selected Missions

When he heard a familiar voice, Xue Ying could not help but reveal a slight smile. He immediately took the Snow Flying God Spear next to him. In a short time, his body flashed like a shadow, and then reappeared over a hundred meters above the hill.

Near the Bamboo House.

A slender and elegant girl wearing a purple robe and carrying a basket was taking a look.

She was the mature Kong You Yue, now 19 years old. The little girl from before had already become a real beauty. Her skin was a little pale as she had long since learned magic, but her pallor only made her look softer. The mysterious aura of a witch could faintly be detected from him. She is an adult and has become a beautiful woman.

At least, among Bai Yuan Zhi's disciples, many male disciples admired him and some of them even tried to chase after him.

"You Yue!"

Xue Ying appeared next to the Bamboo House, putting aside his spear before approaching You Yue.

'' Brother Xue Ying, you don't have to tire yourself out while practicing your spear technique! Teacher said that during the practice, sometimes people need to breathe, ” You Yue said cheerfully while standing beside the stone table. He took out some snacks from the food basket, "I've made some of your favorite cakes, try it."

"M N." M."

Xue Ying could smell the cookies as he walked, and said with a smile, "It smells good."

He picked up a soft cake, bit and said, "You Yue's cooking skills are getting better and better." In her childhood, she really liked the kind of cake her mother made. After her mother left, she could not eat this type of cake anymore. Although the servants sometimes made it, it felt different. You Yue's cooking skills were already quite good, although not as good as her mother's cooking in her memory, but much better than the servants.

"He he he, I learned it just for you." You Yue said proudly.

"Wait a minute, I'll go back to the castle. Today, let's have lunch together, ” Xue Ying said. He sat down and quickly ate the cake, one full cake disappearing into his mouth with every big bite.

"OK, it has been a long time since Brother Xue Ying has returned to the palace," You Yue replied as she stood beside Xue Ying.

In a short period of time, all of the pastries had been eaten by Xue Ying.

"Let's go," Xue Ying stood up.

"M N." M."

You Yue nodded.

A man and a woman walk side by side.

Starting from the winter when Xue Ying was 20 years old, You Yue had already started living inside Snowrock Mountain. Most of his time was spent inside the castle walls. He and the younger Qing Shi sometimes went to the back mountain to visit Xue Ying. As time went on, Xue Ying and You Yue became closer and more familiar with each other.

Six years together ...

To be exact, You Yue was the only girl who was still in contact with Xue Ying. He felt comfortable with You Yue. All along, his mind had only focused on the plan to save his parents. He wanted to save them as soon as possible. All this time, You Yue had only been by his side, watching him and never bothering him.

Sometimes Xue Ying also thought that——

It might not be a bad idea to make You Yue his wife.

Although it was not the same as the kind of love his parents had for each other, it was not, he felt that he could be happy as long as they could live happily together because Xue Ying did not have a close relationship with the other girls.

Moreover, You Yue had never cared about the attention of the other Great Witch disciples. Everyone could see that his entire affection was directed towards Xue Ying.

As for You Yue's father, Kong Hai, he had always tried to raise the issue of Xue Ying and You Yue's marriage.

"No need to rush."

“You Yue is young. Let's wait until after I save my parents, then we'll discuss it again. ”Before he could save his parents, Xue Ying had no intention of getting married!

Since Knights and Magicians prioritize training, they tend to get married and have children relatively late. His father, Dong Bo Lie, only married his mother when he was nearing the age of 40. Your father Yue is the same. She was about 40 years old when she had her eldest daughter, You Yue.

For female witches, 19 years old is still considered a child. They usually marry for about 30 years. If a female witch gets married in her twenties, it is considered early marriage.

“To save father and mother, I had to collect 20,000 merit points. To earn that many points, completing a dangerous Bronze mission was the only way. ”Think Xue Ying. “Although I feel confident, it is not completely safe. If something happens and I perish while on a mission, everything will be in vain. ”

Xue Ying, Zong Ling, Tong San, Qing Shi, and You Yue, five people sat inside.

"Qing Shi, You Yue told me that you've had a boyfriend for almost half a year?" Xue Ying cheerfully looked at her brother. His younger brother, Qing Shi has become a very handsome man! Not to mention when considering all the warriors in Snowrock Castle, even when compared to the Water Rites Town residence, it could be said that his brother was the most handsome of them all!

His brother's eyes were bright and charming! Qing shi had been handsome since childhood. Especially now that he is 16! Now, he could survive just by relying on his appearance alone. Resembling her mother, who was skilled in ice magic, her brother also vaguely exuded a kind of cute and cool handsome male aura. Xue Ying also heard that many female students were trying to chase after him.

Xue Ying was very pleased with this matter.

At the same time, he had mixed feelings. In the blink of an eye, the grizzled two-year-old who slept in his arms was now an adult.

"Sister You Yue, you are truly a busy body, telling my brother everything!" Qing Shi frowned helplessly.

“You are very good at keeping secrets. I just found out you have a boyfriend after half a year. Of course I have to tell your brother, he is your older brother. ”You Yue smiled.

“If your girlfriend doesn't mind, invite her. I want to meet him. ”Say Xue Ying.

"OK, I'll ask him if he wants to or not." Qing Shi pursed his lips.

“Oh right, I'm getting ready to go out. I was worried during this trip I would be gone for ten days to half a month. ”Explained Xue Ying

"What business? You're not going to the Mountain Range of Desolation, are you? ”Shoot Qing Shi. Zong Ling and Tong San also looked surprised by Xue Ying's announcement.

"I can assure you I didn't enter the Mountain Range of Desolation." Xue Ying grinned. "I just want to travel, explore the outside world and practice my spear technique."

He did not explain in detail.

He didn't want to talk any further about taking on the mission.

In the evening.

In the study room.

The flame crystal lamp on the table illuminated the study room. Zong Ling and Tong San were in the room.

Xue Ying, who was sitting at the table, said, “Uncle Zong, Uncle Tong, I am preparing to take the Black Iron level mission first. I want to try to finish this first before I proceed to Bronze order. After that I will start taking Bronze-level missions. "

"Be careful," Tong San advised.

Within the entire Snowrock Castle, only the two of them truly understood Xue Ying's strength. They knew that Xue Ying's level of strength was already comparable to a Legend rank expert.

Xue Ying, I have no doubt about your strength. It's just that your battle experience is still lacking. I fully agree with you taking the Black Iron Order mission first, ”Zong Ling agreed. "First, gather some experience, then take a Bronze-level mission later."

"Mn" Xue Ying nodded.

Taking on the Black Iron mission with the Legend Rank ability, he naturally felt at ease.

“I've seen the list of the latest missions. There is a very suitable mission, ”continue Xue Ying.

"What mission?" Zong Ling and Tong San asked.

"Look at yourself"

Xue Ying took the mission list from the table. One of the missions listed in it is circled. Zong Ling and Tong San approached and looked at him closely.

The mission clearly states:

“A territory castle within the Azure River Region. Investigate the castle to find an escape. The castle's defense is quite strong. Requires five experts, at least at the level of the Silver Moon Knight Prize: 100 Merit Points. Participants gathered at Dragon Mountain Manor within the city of Azure River County on the first day of the sixth month. ”

Xue Ying explained, “I will inform Lord Si An and then immediately head to that prefecture city for a service. This task will not be easy, as it requires the strength of five Silver Moon Knights .. However, I believe that it will be a good experience for me. ”
