261, your mission is to bring the Bluesilver Emperor here [Great Chapter]_1
"Huff—"
Emperor Xueye breathed heavily, his breaths even sparking with blue-purple electricity.
He pulled the sharp finger blade from the platform, his streamlined, muscular frame displaying a violent beauty.
Thankfully, with the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Martial Soul paired with the strength of a Hyper Douluo, such Defense Level could ensure that Emperor Xueye wouldn't get injured; otherwise, the Damage Rebound just now could have completely blasted him into a pile of flesh.
"That was truly frightening."
Emperor Xueye muttered with residual fear, feeling even more grateful for the benefits of a high-quality Martial Soul at this moment.
Luckily he was still "young." Once the Hyper Douluo strength Experience Card ended, there would be plenty of time to improve his Soul Power; Emperor Xueye was full of anticipation for his future.
He patted the dust off his body and walked towards Senior Lin Yi with a smile.
"Thank you for your efforts, Senior."
Emperor Xueye bowed respectfully, upholding proper etiquette at all times as befitting an emperor.
Last time Emperor Xueye and He Chenxin's combined attack dealt 260,000 in damage, and he was curious if his solo attack would exceed that number.
Lin Yi looked at the panel.
[Blood Loss: 301648]
[Remaining Health: 899925634139]
[Damage Level: Red (Intermediate)]
[Random Reward: Mission Card (Completing missions, reward quality can increase by 2 ranks, applicable only for rewards at Gold Intermediate and below)]
[Host Reward: Mission Card*3]
This card, earned as a reward for completing missions, indicated that the task wasn't particularly simple, as one could tell from the potential two-rank quality increase it offered.
Used on a Gold Intermediate reward, this Prop Card could result in a Platinum Level award.
Lin Yi said to Emperor Xueye:
"Damage 301,648, Red Intermediate. You've earned a Mission Card. Complete the specified mission to increase your reward quality by two levels, to Golden Junior."
Emperor Xueye's eyes shone brightly.
Golden Junior... My goodness, do I actually have a chance to obtain a Gold Rank reward?!
"May I ask, Senior, what is the specified mission? I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Emperor Xueye declared excitedly, his face flushed, as he had long envied others receiving Gold Level rewards.
Without an immediate response, Lin Yi continued explaining, "The mission has no time limit; once completed, you'll enjoy the two-rank quality increase."
No time limit was good news, so Emperor Xueye nodded eagerly.
The mission required the System to generate it, and the System interface was currently displaying the generation process.
[Generating Progress...99%]
[Generation Complete!]
Lin Yi looked at the mission, slightly taken aback, his expression indescribably odd.
He said to Emperor Xueye: "Your mission is to find a blade of grass and bring it to me."
"Grass?"
Emperor Xueye was puzzled, as was everyone else. What did Senior Lin Yi want a blade of grass for?
Could Lin Yi say this wasn't what he wanted? The System really spares no one...
He waved his right hand in the air before him, and points of starlight emerged, suddenly forming an image.
Emperor Xueye stepped forward to take a closer look.
"This is... Blue Silver Grass??? Why is it so big?"
The grass in the image was completely blue in color, with golden veins on its leaves, and it appeared to be at least two meters tall, similar in appearance to Blue Silver Grass, but no one had ever seen such a large Blue Silver Grass before.
More importantly... this Blue Silver Grass seemed to have a sense of awareness, swaying in the wind that was actually the leaves moving on their own accord.
So is this or is this not Blue Silver Grass?!
"Bluesilver Emperor."
Di Tian suddenly spoke from the crowd, and all eyes turned to him at once.
"She is the queen of the Blue Silver Grass, a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, and is also known as the Bluesilver Emperor."
"What's more, I have heard of her; about a decade ago, she made a sacrifice for a human and then disappeared without a trace, with no news of her since."
The Martial Soul Hall members, especially Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, exchanged glances with complex expressions.
They had been involved in that incident, and the instigator who had forced the Bluesilver Emperor to sacrifice herself was the former Pope Qian Xunji, but now he was dead.
Never had they thought that this old tale would resurface at this moment.
With partial understanding, Emperor Xueye nodded and then asked Lin Yi, "So Senior, your task for me is to find this Bluesilver Emperor and bring her here?"
Lin Yi nodded, "Exactly. Remember to protect her well on the way here, and if I'm not mistaken, there should be someone guarding her."
"Don't worry, though, that person is severely injured, so the task's difficulty won't be too high."
Tang Hao, perhaps... Bi Bidong suddenly recalled the night Lin Yi sent Tang Hao flying with a punch.
Poor Tang Hao, his wife had become a plant, and now someone was going to steal her away... Bi Bidong pursed her lips, laughing delightedly at his misfortune.
Then she paused, a sense of crisis dawning on her.
Wait a minute!
What does Senior Lin Yi want someone else's wife for...?
...
"Very well, I'll find her and bring her here as soon as possible. You can count on me, Senior," Emperor Xueye bowed and said.
Lin Yi stretched his mouth into a smile: "This is just your mission, it's entirely up to you whether or not to complete it. It's not that I want this blade of grass."
Emperor Xueye looked surprised, then continued, "Understood, I will find this grass as quickly as possible and bring her to Senior."
My god, is this guy incapable of understanding human speech?
