Fate!
Luo Tian felt like he was playing with his life during this short one minute. He was almost played to the point of being broken by the system!
If the quest gets completed, he would receive 1000 experience points as a reward.
If he failed the quest, 100 million experience points would be deducted. What the hell is this about?!
He has never encountered such a thing before.
âThis daddy has never seen a system where failing a quest would result in a punishment. If you want to kill me, just do it in an open manner!â scolded Luo Tian in irritation. Also at this time, the system gave off another alert tone.
Luo Tianâs sphincter tightened.
He had always enjoyed the system alerts, but now his heart felt a trace of sadness and a trace of pain.
âDing!â
âCongratulations to player Luo Tian for getting a grade of A for the completion. You have gained an extra 100,000 experience points!â
âEh?â
Luo Tian became slightly happy. He opened up the system interface and realized there was a rating page with an A as the grade.
There were many video games in his previous life that gave ratings for quest completion. The higher the grade you got, the higher the reward you would get. There were even times where you could draw a big prize!
âHahahaâ¦â
âSo you still have a conscience to compensate me for 100,000 experience points. Otherwise, I would have started scolding all eighteen generations of your ancestors.â Luo Tian was smiling inside his heart. The 100,000 experience points werenât a lot, but it was considered not bad already.
Butâ¦
What he didnât expect wasâ¦
The system gave him another alert tone.
âDing!â
âCongratulations to player Luo Tian for triggering the second part of the quest. The quest grade is at the C-rank.â
âQuest: Protect Qin Changtian for ten days. He cannot die or suffer any injuries. Otherwise, the system will consider this as a quest failure.â
âQuest reward: 2000 experience points.â
âQuest duration: Ten days.â
âQuest failure: Deduction of 200 million experience points.â
âIâ¦â
âYouâ¦â
Luo Tian wanted to curse out loud twice but eventually held it back inside. He then said helplessly: âSystem, youâre the grandpa and Iâm the grandson. If you want to play me to death, just go ahead and give it to me straight. I can go ahead and allow you to see how I die, anytime you want.â
The same thing again!
This is definitely the music that starts playing before Iâm played to death.
Luo Tian felt depressed.
He had no other way out because the quest didnât give him any rights to decline it. All the previous quests would at least give him a âWill you accept it?â dialog box. This time, it didnât give Luo Tian any ability to choose.
It directly forced his hand.
âFine!â
âRun away!â
âThe further, the better.â
âThank you, little brother. Thank you for killing our Sunset Cityâs greatest enemy. Youâve avenged my old lord, my young miss, and the 367 members of the Qin family. This old man doesnât have the ability to repay you so I can only kowtow to you.â
While saying this, Qin San kneeled down.
Qin Changtian beside him was very sensible and immediately kneeled down as well. His head started moving down about to knock on the ground.
Luo Tian almost lost his life in fear of seeing his head about to hit the ground!
He immediately used an unseen force to restrain Qin Changtian and said hurriedly: âMy little ancestor! Youâre not allowed to even have a minor scratch to your skin! My 200 million experience points are all on you!â
The system was a non-living thing.
As long as Qin Changtian suffered a tiny bit of injury, it might consider the quest as a failure. It would then immediately deduct 200 million experience points from Luo Tian. Thisâ¦
This was basically taking his life!
âQuickly get up.â
âIâm your hired worker so helping my employer is very natural. So, where should we go after this?â Luo Tian reminded them of their situation. He remembered Ji Aoâs words in Heaven Opening City â Sunset Cityâs Qin family was the dragon protector clan and they knew the entrance to the Sky Palace Divine race.
Luo Tianâs goal here was to find the Sky Palace Divine race, get the Dragonâs Bead, and then help his dragon egg hatch.
Exceptâ¦
He wasnât in a rush to mention this.
The Qin family lost over three hundred plus lives and they still didnât reveal it. Once Luo Tian asks about it, Qin San would immediately become wary of him and this would do more harm than good.
Qin San was panting while saying: âWhat the Heaven Opening Manor wants is my and young masterâs life, so this has nothing to do with you two. You both should leave now and donât get implicated because of us.â
âHuh?â
Luo Tian was startled by his words and said: âIf we leave now, how far can you two run?â
The evil-looking youth came over and said: âThatâs right. Just tell us a place and we will send you there. Since weâve received your money, we will definitely help you finish the task.â
Qin Changtian looked up at Qin San and said: âGrandpa, these two big brothers are not bad people. Just let them come with us.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Qin San still didnât fully trust Luo Tian and the other youth.
This was because of Ji Ao.
This was also logical. They couldnât just fully trust Luo Tian because he had killed Sunset Cityâs greatest enemy.
Qin San was very clearâ¦
That in this world, they were the only two people left that knew the entrance location to the Sky Palace Divine race.
Could Luo Tian be here for that?
No matter what, Qin San wouldnât trust others that easily but he was also out of options at the same time. Just like what Luo Tian said â Heaven Opening City will definitely catch up to this pair of old and young within half a day. There is no way they can survive until tomorrow.
Qin Sanâs expression turned gloomy before saying: âFine, then weâll be in the care of you two.â
âYeah! Yeah! Yeah!â
Qin Changtian leaped about in joy.
Luo Tian faintly smiled and felt his heart relax. He was rejoicing internally and felt lucky he didnât ask about the entrance to the Sky Palace Divine race. Otherwise, thereâs no way he would be allowed to follow these two. âQin Sanâs vigilance is quite strong.â
Strong to the point that he would never say a word about it.
There was only one method left â change his heart somehow!
The evil-looking youth had a calm look on his face as he exuded a faint evil aura. The only thing out of place was his gaze turned fiery hot when it landed on Luo Tian. This was because the strength Luo Tian demonstrated had impressed him greatly.
âGood!â
âLetâs quickly run then, and try to leave Heaven Opening Cityâs area of influence.â Qin Sanâs brows furrowed as he helped Qin Changtian get onto the back of the war beast.
Luo Tian couldnât help asking: âWhere are we going?â
Qin San looked off into the distance and replied: âThe Dark Forest!â
ââââ
Heaven Opening City, Heaven Opening Manor.
âAoâer!â
âAoâer!â
âAoâer!â
The old Ji Tongtian was bitterly weeping while trying to suppress an evil-like flames of rage around him. The evil flames would surge up, then shrink down, and cause a suppressive atmosphere in the main hall. He was clearly extremely enraged.
Ji Ao was his youngest son, and also the son he doted on the most.
He never imagined a white hair person would have to bury a black hair person! 1
Moreoverâ¦
There wasnât even an intact corpse for Ji Aoâs death, and only several pieces of his flesh left. His heart was trembling when looking at this scene. He then shouted through his clenched teeth: âSend out all the assassins in Heaven Opening Manor! I want all four of them dead! Every single one of them needs to accompany my son in his burial!â
He gnashed his teeth in anger!
His looks were beyond vicious!
At this time, two middle-aged men came over.
They cupped their hands and said in unison: âFather â your son will definitely take revenge for his third brother (second brother). But the Rainbow Lotus is about to mature, and several immortal sect Eldersâ¦â
Before they could finishâ¦
Ji Tongtian flipped his palms and slapped them, sending them rolling on the ground. The thick battle aura of a Profound Emperor was released as he shouted: âNo matter how big the issue is, it still wonât be bigger than the death of Aoâer! Have them wait for me!â
