Chapter 3: Mission
🕑 Added 2024-09-22 16:13:30 +0000 UTCBefore he could continue enjoying the beautiful sunrise, the system's voice sounded.
[Ding!]
[Host, prepare for your first Goddess Rescue mission, the host is being teleported to the first world in 3, 2, 1]
As soon as the system announced, the space around him suddenly distorted, and he was suddenly teleported.
"What the !"
He didn't even hear what the system said as he was busy watching the view and reminiscing about his past, but suddenly, his surroundings turned dark as he teleported to an unfamiliar place.
"Hmm?"
After teleporting, he looked around the place, sensing a completely different energy than he was used to in Dao World.
Though he could still convert it into spiritual qi and use it for cultivation but, from this energy, he concluded that he had travelled to a different world.
But here, in the middle of nowhere.
But here, in the middle of nowhere...
Looking around at his surroundings, he saw trees—dense trees everywhere.
It seemed like a forest, yet not vast enough to truly be one.
However, he needed to find a place to settle.
It was evening, and night would soon fall; although he encountered no immediate threats, the darkness could change that.
He was not the same fearless man, he could not afford to be fearless, he did not have the strength to do so.
Along the way, he saw a group of people and followed.
He didn't want to be found and he didn't questioned,
It was hard to answer why a four year old boy was in the middle of a forest during this time.
So, he followed stealthily.
Fortunately, these people did not have high cultivation and with his stealth technique, they didn't find out all the way that anyone was following them.
After following for a while, they arrived at a bustling town.
From their conversation, he discerned that this place was called Wutan City.
The whispers among the group also revealed some details.
"Hey, do you know about Xiao Family"
"Of course, everyone knows about the three major clan here: the Xiao clan, Ao Ba Family
Jia Lie Family,
They practically run Wutan City."
"Yeah, the Xiao family is the strongest but other two clans are not weak at all."
"I heard the Xiao family used to be a much bigger family, but now they're reduced to staying in such a small city."
"Huh? Why do you call this a small city? Wutan City is one of the largest cities in the Jia Ma Empire."
"You country bumpkin, you haven't seen the world yet. Wutan City might be big here, but it's nothing on the outside; so insignificant it wouldn't even matter if it disappeared."
"Believe it or not, there are many strong people out there who can crush cities and kingdoms like they're nothing."
"Really?"
"For us, this place seems like the grandest area in the world."
"Yeah, but for those strong Dou cultivators, it's just a small area that could be crushed like an ant."
"That's true. The difference between the strong and the weak is just so vast. We've never really seen the world beyond this city."
Well.. gossip is common in everworld...but yeah, this guy was right.
When they reached the city it was already dark, and he also parted ways.
Because he noticed a luxurious carriage approaching in the distance, escorted by several guards.
And heard a familiar sound...
[Ding!]
He didn't have the time to check as the carriage was quickly moving away.
And so, he quickly followed.
At the same time he also that noticed a powerful aura nearby; a powerful cultivator.
Powerful enough to deal with the him now.
Although he was sure that he wouldn't be discovered but he didn't want to risk it... and get mistaken as a kidnapper or worse Assassin or something.
So, he didn't hide and followed.
At the same time, in the carriage.
Inside the carriage sat, a four-year-old girl.
Even a young age, the girl's extraordinary beauty was evident.
She had delicate features, with large, expressive eyes that held a certain aloofness.
Her long, black hair was neatly tied back, and she wore an elegant dress that hinted at her noble lineage.
Despite her tender age, there was a cold and distant aura about her that made it clear she was not an ordinary child.
At this moment, there was a hint of sadness in the little girl's eyes as she sat in silence... for valid reason.
However, the silence was broken when she heard a sound transmission.
"Miss, there's a little guy following behind us."
"Hm."
"Is it an assassin?"
But if it were, Uncle Ling would have already dealt with him.
"It's a little guy."
The old man's voice reached her ears, and the girl blinked.
"Little?"
"Yes miss, he's about your age.. and"
Ling Ying wanted to say that the little boy had a noble aura and an otherworldly good-looking face that made him stand out.
Such a boy couldn't be from an ordinary clan.
"Miss... he's just behind you.."
However, just as she was about to ask more, she heard the old man speak again, causing her to look out of the carriage, just in time to see a small figure dart past her.
Yes, it was Ling Tian.
Since he heard the system's alert, he had already determined that the target of his mission was inside the carriage.
And judging from the direction they were going, it was towards the Xiao Family.
After all,
[Ding!]
[Rescue the Goddess: Gu/Xiao Xun'er]
The moment he passed the carriage, the little girl sitting inside leaned out to see a young boy running ahead.
Although she couldn't see his face, the aura he exuded convinced her he was not a simple boy.
And he was a cultivator...
He seemed around her age so maybe he had just started cultivating.. 'but why is he so fast.'
Not to mention, the movement technique he was using to run didn't seem like a normal one at all.
She had never seen a small child her age move so fast as him.
Coincidentally, as she observed, the boy—sensing the gaze on his back—turned to look just as their eyes met.
The first thing she noticed were those blue eyes... those deep blue eyes that could captivate a person's soul.
Mysterious, calm, and beautiful.
Snapped out of her reverie only when he had vanished from sight, she found herself wanting to call out, but it was too late.
She couldn't even see his face clearly...
But...
"Young Miss, he went towards the Xiao Family."
Looking at his young miss staring blankly at where the boy had disappeared, Ling Ying felt compelled to speak up.
"Is he someone from the Xiao Family?"
The idea briefly entered her mind but was swiftly discarded.
If it were in the past, she wouldn't have done so but Xiao Family wasn't the same Ancient Clan from the past.
A small family like the Xiao could not possibly be home to someone with such an aura.
Could he be from an ancient clan like hers?
With this thought, Xun'er found herself fixated on the fleeting image of the figure.
Although she had been completely taken by his eyes, she distinctly remembered that he had silver hair.
'Silver-haired boy with blue eyes...'
....
And while the little girl was lost in thought, staring at the back of the boy that disappeared, the boy in question was also feeling the same.
"System, aren't you called Goddess Rescue System? Why is that small girl called Goddess?"
The moment he turned around and their eyes met, he saw the target of his mission.
A four-year-old girl.
Let's not talk about this...did she really need to be rescued?
Could someone really harm her?
Thinking of the guy who was following her, protecting her safety, he didn't think anyone in this small city could harm her.
And if there was someone who could, she couldn't possibly be rescued by a four-year-old who just started cultivating.
He didn't think his plot armour was this broken. Otherwise, this book would've had an invincible tag.
So how can he rescue a girl who couldn't even be protected by a strongman who could kill him with a blow?
So, what rescue?
[Ding!]
[Of course, host !! Gu Xun'er, after growing up, will become the most beautiful girl on the entire Dou Qi Continent. So, she is called a Goddess, and of course, she needs to be rescued.
Don't worry, host, this system won't ask you for something impossible]
[Ding!]
[Mission: Xiao Yan, a 30-year-old Pedophile, is coming to take advantage of a little girl in the name of warming up her meridians. Please save her from being taken advantage of and teach him a lesson.
Mission Rewards: 1000 System points and a piece of a map of Purifying Demon Lotus Flame
Failure: Xun'er commits herself to Xiao Yan ]
'A Pedophile.'
It was hard to imagine that a noble girl like her would be taken advantage of by a pedophile.
However,
Looking at the mission and its rewards, the corners of his eyebrows raised as he thought.
'Xiao family is just a small family in a small Kingdom, and that girl doesn't look like someone who should be offended...
They should not be too stupid. '
Considering her already blooming beauty and knowing how evil people can be, he had already removed thoughts like
'How can someone do this to a four-year-old.'
He had no doubt that people would...and such people were not in the minority.
So, his thoughts were all focused on the first line of the mission.
'Xiao Yan, a 30 year old Pedophile'
Removing the possibility that the people of Xiao family were this stupid... the only possibility was...
