Surprise! The popular villain is actually Long Aotian's wife

The thin light curtain cast by the green jade umbrella blocks out all rain.

Qi Wu Yue held an umbrella for the two of them with one hand and let the other hand hang in front of him.

The hand across the shoulder from behind seemed to reveal the owner's unhappy aura, and his expression was slightly bent with a gloomy look.

Xiao Lin lowered his eyelashes and glanced at the white hand, "What's wrong?"

"I hate rainy days. I really hate them."

"I'm so annoyed. It's all your fault."

Xiao Lin paused, and as Zhao Zhao finished complaining, she bit his neck.

The soft lips pressed against the flesh of the neck, and the sharp teeth pierced the flesh.

Warmth and pain intertwined.

Xiao Lin continued to walk through the mud in the heavy rain.

He carefully felt the touch and warmth on his neck, chuckled, and said, "Why do you blame me?"

"I blame you."

"Okay, blame me, so Zhao Zhao can tell me the reason?"

"If it weren't for taking care of you, I wouldn't be here."

Someone has no self-awareness.

Xiao Linteng didn't make a move, but pinched the leg of someone in his hand and said, "Okay, thank you Zhao Zhao for taking care of me."

"Hmph, you know what's going on."

As expected, I got a snort of fart.

"Then can you tell me why you hate rain?" Xiao Lin continued to ask.

"No reason."

"Okay, then there's no reason."

Xiao Lin raised his eyes and looked into the distance through the light curtain condensed by the green jade umbrella. In the misty sky and earth, a dilapidated temple sat quietly in the distance.

You can take shelter from the rain for now.

The temple has been weathered and is already in ruins. A fallen plaque lies across the entrance, and the words carved on the plaque have been worn away by the sun and rain, making them unrecognizable.

There were only wild grass and desolate graves at the door. In the already gloomy sky, the cold wind and rain made the scene even more desolate and cold.

Xiao Lin hooked Qi Wu Yue's legs around his waist, moved the plaque away, and took it into the temple.

Qi Wu Yue jumped off him. The temple was not covered with dust and cobwebs as he had imagined. It was just that the wooden beams were rotten and there were leaks in several places.

It's raining heavily outside the door and drizzling inside the door.

"L"

The entire ground was wet, and one could accidentally step into a small pit filled with water.

There is really nowhere to start.

It is unknown who carved the stone statue, but if you look closely you can make out a human figure, with half of the body tilted, and the accumulated dust is about two inches thick.

In the palm of his hand, which was so blurry that he couldn't even distinguish his fingers, there was a flickering light. A gust of cold wind blew in from the hall, suppressing it and almost extinguishing it.

Qi Wu Yue took out the cushion and sat directly on the altar without any hesitation, with his back to the stone statue, completely unconcerned.

Not to mention that it is just a stone statue in the mortal world, what can it do even if the real owner is here?

It's just an unknown wild monster, but it still rides on its head.

Xiao Lin put the plaque down against the wall, then found the brazier used to burn paper money and threw in a ball of Phoenix Fire that had been activated with the Fire Burning Technique.

The golden-red flames emitted scalding hot air, dispelling the dampness caused by the leaking rain.

Qi Wu Yue took out a sugar pill, chewed it with a crunching sound, stared at the brazier and suddenly said: "Brother, do you know that ten coins in the mortal world can be worth one netherworld silk?"

As he spoke, he stretched out a white finger and shook it.

According to his past behavior...

Xiao Lin instantly frowned, holding back the laughter that was about to come out of his mouth, and said seriously, "So do you want to save some of this Netherworld Silk as well?"

Qi Wu Yue paused while biting the candy pill. "That's fine. Paper money doesn't cost anything... You dare to laugh at me?"

Realizing something, he narrowed his beautiful silver eyes instantly.

"How could that be? No." Xiao Lin shook his head.

"Hmm, why is my hair wet?" Qi Wu Yue touched his hair.

Untying the silver ornaments hanging in his hair, Xiao Lin helped him dry his damp black hair. He forced out a bit of heat from the Phoenix True Fire with his palms, and his slender fingers shuttled through his hair with heat, stroking all the way to the ends of his hair.

As for why I came to the mortal world, the story begins two days ago.

In the mission hall, Xiao Lin took the green-robed old man's bracelet to apply for a mission delay.

Qi Wu Yue looked around leisurely.

In the center of the mission hall is a huge fluorescent faceted stone pillar, each facet of which is engraved with different tasks and brief information about them.

The task bar is no more than a foot long, and there are almost a thousand tasks on the huge stone pillar.

The selected tasks will be removed from the light column, and new tasks issued by teachers or colleges will be added.

The tasks are divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D, and each level is further divided into three grades: upper, middle, and lower.

There are generally two types of tasks: on-campus tasks and off-campus tasks.

It is said that the inner courtyard also has tasks assigned by the college. Of course, they are still the outer courtyard, so there is no need to understand them for the time being.

On-campus tasks mean that the task area is only within the school, and most of them are simple jobs such as helping to feed the spirit beasts in the spirit beast garden and weeding and watering the herb garden.

The lower the risk, the fewer points you will be rewarded with.

An overseas assignment is to carry out tasks in various places outside. It involves certain risks but also has higher rewards.

Some special tasks even use exchange points as rewards, and the exchange points can be used to exchange for rare magical tools, elixirs, pills, etc. in the Treasure Pavilion.

"Look! It's a special exchange point." A student suddenly pointed at the faceted stone pillar.

"Special exchange point? Where?"

“It’s true.”

"Special exchange points are issued by a teacher or elder in the academy. You can use them to exchange for an item from the issuer. The value is usually higher than that of ordinary exchange points."

Many people gathered under the faceted stone pillars, eager to get in, because that was a special exchange point, and it was almost always snatched up as soon as it appeared.

But when everyone saw the mission brief, they couldn't help but feel a little hesitant.

"Mortal Realm, why is it the Mortal Realm?"

"The mission in the Mortal Realm...if you don't do it well..."

"If you have low cultivation, you won't have the confidence, and if you have high cultivation, you won't be able to go."

"If it was a mission in another place, I would dare to give it a try, but in the Mortal Realm... forget it."

Many people left, shaking their heads with regret.

The mortal world, the mundane place.

Although almost everyone on Lingyao Continent has a talent for cultivation, there are still a small number of people who have spent their entire lives unable to even perform the most basic task of drawing Qi into the body.

Moreover, people have different levels of talent. Some people can only reach the first or second level in their entire lives.

Almost no ability to protect themselves.

In the eyes of high-level monks, they are nothing more than ants.

It would be fine if we just disdain to attack these people, but two thousand years ago, the ghost cultivators in Yinhe Dao were rampant. They killed people and took their corpses to refine puppets, and they did not care about the principle of bullying the weak.

Mortals were in danger and had no ability to resist. Countless ordinary people were transformed into walking corpses that were neither human nor ghost, and were filled with poison.
