Chapter 845: Chapter 845: Breakthrough Task!
Song Xue suddenly spoke up.
Instantly, Zhu Wuhe snorted coldly and released Jiang Xiaobai.
He seemed to take Song Xue’s words quite seriously.
Jiang Xiaobai also snorted coldly; if the other party really wanted to make trouble, he wasn’t afraid.
Tang Yuanhua didn’t scare him, why worry about this nonsense?
He had the means to flip the table!
If he really did flip the table, nobody would be able to play!
Then, they saw Song Xue pointing at Jiang Xiaobai, “Come up here, and don’t let me say it a second time.”
“Why should I?”
Jiang Xiaobai sneered, “I’m just here to observe the competition among the direct disciples. I haven’t provoked any of you, have I?”
“So, why is all the hostility directed at me? If you insist on fighting me, at least give me a reason.”
The crowd was astonished at Jiang Xiaobai’s brazen arrogance.

Song Xue was an extremely powerful presence among the direct disciples.
Plus, she had a very mysterious background, one of the foremost within the Purgatory God Sword Sect.
There were even rumors that Song Xue’s background could almost match that of the Purgatory God Sword Sect itself!
“Come up here!”
Song Xue suddenly shouted in a cold voice.
To this, Jiang Xiaobai replied with a dismissive smile, “And what can you do if I don’t come up?”
With that, he walked away.
Sect rules prohibited assaulting a fellow sect member while within the sect, with violators facing execution on the spot!
This was a matter of life and death.
“It would be better for you to come up, otherwise, don’t blame your senior brother for being ruthless.”
Zhu Wuhe, the sycophant, blocked Jiang Xiaobai’s way once more.
Jiang Xiaobai stood his ground, “Come on then, hit me.”
Everyone’s head was filled with dark lines.
Even Zhu Wuhe hadn’t expected Jiang Xiaobai to pull such a move.
“Come on, you’re so capable, hit me then!”
“Stop your yapping, if you have the guts, hit me; if not, get lost.”
With a smirk, Jiang Xiaobai sidestepped Zhu Wuhe and walked out.
No one dared to utter a word.
Because Zhu Wuhe’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Too arrogant, could this Great Achievement disciple really talk to Zhu Wuhe like that?
Zhu Wuhe looked at Jiang Xiaobai incredulously, “Kid, you’re quite something. I’ll remember you!”
But Jiang Xiaobai paid him no mind and had already disappeared into the crowd.
On the stage, Song Xue’s beautiful eyes were fixed on Jiang Xiaobai’s departing figure.
A trace of displeasure flickered at the bottom of her eyes.
“Junior Sister Song, I will definitely teach that insolent boy a lesson this time, don’t worry about it!” Zhu Wuhe said hastily.
But Song Xue didn’t pay him any attention and turned to Lin Zijin, “Do you know that boy?”
“He’s someone I brought over.”
Lin Zijin asked curiously, “Junior Sister Song, what’s this about…?”
“Tell him to come here tomorrow and fight me. I will suppress my realm to fight him. Whoever wins may ask any request of the loser!” Song Xue said, then left.
This caused an uproar among everyone!
“Holy crap, this is huge news!”
“The direct disciple Song Xue is bent on fighting a Great Achievement disciple and has set a high stakes bet.”
“The rumor is that Song Xue has taken a fancy to the disciple’s good looks, and wants to take him as a concubine!”
“…”
For a time, the Purgatory God Sword Sect was abuzz with a big piece of news.
There were all sorts of stories.
As for the main character Song Xue, she did not care one bit about what outsiders were saying, and as for Jiang Xiaobai, he cared even less.
The Purgatory God Sword Sect was actually quite a good place.
It not only laid down rules against fighting within the sect but also prohibited fighting outside.
Every disciple’s token contained a special prohibition.
The token could sense whether you were engaging in combat.
What if you threw away your token and then fought?
Sorry, but the first rule of the sect is that the token must not leave oneself by more than ten meters.
Otherwise, you will directly lose your identity as a disciple of the Purgatory God Sword Sect and be banned from joining again forever!
People are bending over backward to become disciples of the Purgatory God Sword Sect; losing their status over something like this would be enough to make them cry to death.
At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai was sitting alone in the courtyard.
Li Fugui had just been appointed to his new position and had gone out to meet the external elders, while Huo Shuyu was introduced by Song Huonan to another sect in this world.
This top-ranking world among the three thousand is known as the Canghai World.
It is named after the saying, “a single grain of millet in a vast ocean”.
After all, it is just one of the three thousand worlds.
There are many sects within the top-ranking worlds, and the sects here are all very strong.
Jiang Xiaobai was also somewhat reassured that Huo Shuyu could join a sect.
However, the rest was not important; he was currently frowning deeply, looking at a token in his hand that was flickering with light.
This was the token from the pawnshop.
Ever since he had met Song Xue, the token had been strangely flashing.
“Strange, could it be that Song Xue is a disciple of White Crane?”
“But if that’s the case, why would she have a grudge against me?”
“Is she sick or something? A tsundere?”
Jiang Xiaobai was utterly perplexed.
What the heck is going on here?
Just as he was about to drink some wine, the voice of the system suddenly transmitted in his mind.
“Kunpeng Swallowing Sky Skill breakthrough mission released!”
“Prerequisite condition: host must reach the True Immortal realm!”
“Mission content: Please reach the coast under the night sky within three months. Subsequent tasks will be released upon the host’s arrival at the mission location.”
“Upgrade: If the mission fails, the host will permanently lose the opportunity to advance the Kunpeng Swallowing Sky Skill.”
Jiang Xiaobai was startled.
The mission is here already?
But what the hell is that mission location?
“Hey, system, at least give me a detailed hint. You just mention this one place, but there are so many in the three thousand worlds, how am I supposed to find it?”
Jiang Xiaobai was baffled.
Kidding, if not for detailed information, he wouldn’t be able to find it in the Canghai World, let alone the three thousand worlds, even if he spent three months!
But the system’s nature to trick people came again, completely ignoring Jiang Xiaobai’s cries.
Helplessly, Jiang Xiaobai could only sigh.
“Perhaps the scripture depository here might have such information.”
“Eh? Hold on, I can ask White Crane!”
Jiang Xiaobai immediately contacted him using that token.
Then he received a message.
“If you don’t come to the competition tomorrow, don’t ever expect to know.”
Jiang Xiaobai was completely stunned.
Could it be that Song Xue really is from the pawnshop?
Could she be White Crane’s daughter?
“Seriously, can’t you take care of your daughter?”
Jiang Xiaobai gritted his teeth in frustration; this woman, did she have to push him to the forefront of a storm?
…
In a remote world, White Crane who was herding sheep suddenly sneezed.
“Damn, it must be that bastard Jiang Xiaobai cursing me again.”
“Hehe, I wonder if he and Song Xue will get along?”
“Given Song Xue’s temperament, she’s probably going to kill Jiang Xiaobai.”
White Crane chuckled, then flicked a bamboo stick on the backside of a sheep.
“Eat, eat, eat, that’s all you know. You eat all day long, you’re going to eat me out of house and home, you know!”
If you look closely, the tender grass that these sheep are eating is not ordinary.
It’s a kind of tender grass that sparkles with a faint starlight.
…
The next day, Jiang Xiaobai thought it over and decided to leave his courtyard.
Heading to the practice field.
No matter what, things had already come to this.
Not going wasn’t an option anymore.
