Chapter 1142: Cao Xuan’s Opportunity

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As a member of the ma.s.s, although Cao Xuan knew that he was ordinary, he had been working hard.

To put it more bluntly, although he was mediocre, he also had dreams of becoming a G.o.d.

Cao Xuan finally found the Employment Hall among the crowd. This hall was large because it was modified from a large family’s residence.

Without much effort, Cao Xuan squeezed in.

Then, he saw that many people were holding a book. In addition to the book, Cao Xuan also saw that the walls of the hall were full of various tasks like advertis.e.m.e.nts.

“Go to the 2,000 kilometer sea area near the coast to find a Five-step Coral Snake. Requires the body to be complete. One Blue Spirit Fruit as payment, effective for three days..”

Cao Xuan’s eyes lit up. He was about to rush over to talk to the waiter, only to see that the fish skin had been taken off. Then, under Cao Xuan’s gaze, a waiter handed something to the young woman, and it was over.

Cao Xuan was speechless. The task was taken away so easily?

However, Cao Xuan didn’t panic. Anyway, there were still many more. He continued to read the next one.

“Go to the coral reef in the 3,000-mile sea area near the coast, and find a Red Horn Sea Anemone. Requires…”

Before he finished reading the request, the fish skin map was taken off again.

Cao Xuan continued to read, because a new fish skin map was hung up.

“Go to the eight-thousand-mile sea area, the Swirl Valley, and hunt a Black-Scaled Flood Dragon. Requires the body to be complete. One low-quality divine weapon, three spiritual fruits, and one energy fruit as payment. Effective for five days.”

Cao Xuan frowned slightly. This was a little difficult. He knew about the Swirl Valley. This seemed a little difficult. However, he could give it a try. He had a trump card, so he should be able to…

However, just as Cao Xuan was about to shout, a man shouted, “I’ll accept the mission of the Swirl Valley. It’s a small problem. I can complete it in three days.”

Cao Xuan: “…”

Cao Xuan was dumbfounded.

He finally understood that the missions here had to be s.n.a.t.c.hed. Many people were like him, eyeing the tasks covetously.

As soon as a waiter took out a fish skin, someone next to him shouted, “Whatever this task is, I’ll accept it. I’m an intermediate Hidden Fisher.”

Cao Xuan felt his teeth ache. The missions that no one chose were either too low or too difficult. There was even a task requiring hunting exotic creatures. This was not something ordinary people could do.

Cao Xuan keenly noticed that a waiter reached out to take out a fish skin map, and he immediately shouted, “Whatever this task is, I’ll take it.”

The receptionist glanced at him. “If I take out a difficult task, can you accept it?”

As he said this, the receptionist looked at the fish skin map and shrugged. “Okay! You win.”

After that, the receptionist opened the fish skin map and showed it to Cao Xuan. It turned out that it was not a sea mission.

“Go to the Great Wilderness Village on the Reef Sh.o.r.e and give the villagers guidance on cultivation techniques and combat skills. The mission can’t be over until you get the approval of the village leader. The reward is one Semi-Divine weapon and a hundred catties of spiritual spring. Approval-type missions have no time limit.”

Instantly, Cao Xuan’s eyes lit up. A Semi-Divine weapon? And a hundred catties of spiritual spring?

Cao Xuan was overjoyed.

He was in need of a Semi-Divine weapon now. He had planned to get it in the Logistics Division. Who would have expected that he would get it from the first mission he received?

As far as Cao Xuan knew, although the village was weak, there would be strong masters. But usually, the strong masters would go to higher places and not stay long.

Cao Xuan quickly said, “I’ll take it, I’ll take it.”

The receptionist said, “Because it’s a special mission, I’ll give you this fish skin map. However, if you want to complete the mission and receive the reward, you’ll have to get the village leader’s seal.”

“Okay, okay.”

Cao Xuan excitedly asked about the location of the Great Wilderness Village and left the city.

The moment he received this task, he immediately fell in love with this city of justice. This was completely different from the Yu City before!

Cao Xuan muttered, “I’m told that the City of Justice is still being reorganized. Perhaps when I come back, it will have been built. When the time comes, I can exchange my resources for something better from the Logistics Division.”

In the Great Wilderness Village.

Looking at the village that occupied less than 100 miles, Cao Xuan soon asked where the village leader lived.

When Cao Xuan found the village leader’s home, he saw a refiner refining weapons, who turned out to be stronger than him.

Before long, Cao Xuan saw an old man and a young man walking out of the yard together.

The old man said, “In that case, I’ll leave the hunting task of the village to you. Our village is relatively remote. In the past, when we were in the war, many men died. Many children haven’t had enough food. If their talent is not good enough, they have to eat more.”

The young man smiled. “Leader, don’t worry. With me here, the children in the village can eat whatever they want. They’ll definitely be able to eat to their fill before the Soul Awakening.”

After the young man left, the village leader looked at Cao Xuan and smiled. “Phew, here you are! What task have you accepted?”

Cao Xuan asked in surprise, “Leader, are there many missions issued in your village?”

The village leader smiled. “No, not at all. Even if we want to distribute them, we don’t have the money to distribute missions. Other villages release dozens of missions or so, but we only distribute a dozen. It’s just because the city lord had once lived in our village for a few days that she took care of us.”

Cao Xuan asked in surprise, “Has the city lord lived here before?”

The village leader laughed. “That was decades ago. The city lord stayed in our village for a few days after she was kicked out by the Ximen family. Then, she left quietly and took away Marshal Han. Sigh, we didn’t know they would grow up to this point!”

“Hiss! Marshal Han?”

Cao Xuan was shocked. Since he returned to the City of Justice, people had been talking about Ximen Linglan and Marshal Han everywhere he went. Although he had never seen them before, he had heard a lot about them.

It was said that City Lord Xi’men defeated all the big clans in the Storm Strait. In terms of strength, she was already at the peak of the Venerable realm.

Cao Xuan certainly didn’t dare to imagine such a figure. How strong was a Venerable?

However, Marshal Han was also legendary. He was said to be an intermediate law enforcer who had killed an Explorer. He was the number one warrior on the Avenger.

Hearing it, Cao Xuan was shocked. Are they bragging? A law enforcer can kill an Explorer? What kind of law enforcer is that? So these two people actually went out from the Great Wilderness Village?

It seemed that this was not the first time the village leader saw such an expression. He immediately smiled and said, “Anyway, don’t worry. You will be rewarded. By the way, what is your mission?”

“Oh! I’m here to teach the villagers cultivation techniques and combat skills.”

The village leader immediately shouted, “So it’s this task. It seems that you have to live in the home of the fool… Uh… Marshal Han. Since the news of Marshal Han came, all the children have been there. Even the library is in the city lord’s old residence.”

Cao Xuan nodded with a smile. “Leader, what should I teach them? Teach them a complete combat skill?”

The village leader said, “It’s said my approval is required, but in fact, you just need to teach for three months. When the time comes, the next teacher will come over. However, in these three months, you have to teach seriously. The children must make improvements.”

When Cao Xuan heard that he could get a Semi-Divine weapon by staying here for three months, he was overjoyed.

However, when the village leader and Cao Xuan came to the so-called Han Fei’s old residence, he was stunned. This little shabby house?

The village leader smiled. “This little house used to belong to Marshal Han. The big house next to it is the former residence of the city lord.”

As he said this, the village leader roared, “Boys, come here! Your teacher is here!”

“Hum…”

In all directions, a group of children ran over and some children shouted, “Leader, I’m going to the reef beach to call the others.”

Cao Xuan wondered, “Leader, this reef beach seems to be quite famous!”

Cao Xuan couldn’t help but be puzzled. After all, the mission stated that the village was next to the reef sh.o.r.e, which meant that the reef sh.o.r.e was more famous than the village.

The village leader said with a smile, “Our small place just has a lot of reefs but few regular sea ports. However, the reef sh.o.r.e is not dangerous. Besides, it’s s.p.a.cious there. You can teach there during the day.”

After a moment, Cao Xuan felt terrible. There must be thousands of people here!

The village leader quickly said, “Haha! Well, in fact, we have issued a task to recruit some Dangling Fishers. However, no one has arrived yet. You are the first to come. But it doesn’t matter. There will be more people coming later.”

Cao Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. That’s good. Otherwise, how could he teach so many children?

Since he had accepted the mission and was given a reward, Cao Xuan certainly wouldn’t slack off.

Therefore, he said to these children, “Everyone, listen, I have three purposes for teaching. Firstly, I will check your spiritual heritage; then, I will choose cultivation techniques for you; and lastly, I will start to teach you combat skills uniformly. During this period of time, you have to work hard. As long as you work hard, you won’t be disappointed.”

“Okay, teacher.”

“Teacher, are you going to test our spiritual heritages now?”

“Teacher, I want to choose a heaven-level technique.”

Cao Xuan was speechless. I don’t even have a heaven-level technique. How can you have a heaven-level technique? If there is really a heaven-level technique, why would I teach students here?

However, the village leader shouted, “Be progressive and don’t seek speed. No one can get heaven-level cultivation techniques from the beginning. Do you understand? When you become strong masters like the city lord and Marshal Han in the future, we will give you all the heaven-level techniques and combat skills in our village.”

“Pfft!”

Cao Xuan was stunned. Huh? What do you mean? There are also heaven-level techniques and combat skills in the Great Wilderness Village?

Because he had to prepare the pulse-testing stone and check the library, Cao Xuan decided to teach on the second day.

He couldn’t live in the place where the city lord once lived. After all, it had been converted into a library. He could only live in Han Fei’s little shabby house.

Cao Xuan glanced at the two peach trees at the door of the house that had lost their peaches. He smiled and immediately pushed the door open. At this moment, a cloud of dust fell. Looking around, he found that the room was covered in dust and damp.

Seeing this, Cao Xuan smiled faintly. He came from the village and had lived in such a house before too.

However, Marshal Han’s room was very clean and the furnis.h.i.+ngs were very neat.

Of course, Cao Xuan didn’t take it seriously. As a peak-level Hanging Fisher, he didn’t need to sleep in a room. He could sleep anywhere.

After a quick glance, Cao Xuan went to the library next door.

At this moment, the sun was high in the afternoon. When Cao Xuan came in, he saw an old man losing an arm and a leg lying on a chair basking in the sun.

Cao Xuan couldn’t see the strength of the old man at a glance, so he thought to himself, It seems that this old man is a strong master.

Therefore, Cao Xuan asked politely, “Sir, I’m the new teacher here. I need to see the cultivation techniques and combat skills in the library.”

“Um…”

The old man lay motionlessly. Perhaps he had been lying there for too long and couldn’t get up.

Cao Xuan entered the house without saying anything.

After a while, when he saw the rebuilt bookshelf, he casually picked a book.

“s.h.i.+t!”

Cao Xuan directly threw the book away.

The old man’s leisurely voice came from outside, “Don’t throw the book away. How can you be a teacher with this personality? Even an idiot is stronger than you.”

Cao Xuan quickly picked up the book.

He couldn’t be blamed for being surprised. He picked a random book and got a heaven-level combat skill? Did this make sense?

Yes, the heaven-level combat skill was called the Wind Feather Sword Records, and it said heaven-level, low-quality.

Cao Xuan was shocked. He had traveled all over the world and only accidentally obtained a heaven-level, low-quality swimming technique.

Who could have expected that he would get a heavenly-level combat skill so easily in a small village?

In an instant, Cao Xuan felt that he had made a fortune. Three months of teaching time was really too short! It would take him at least a year to exchange for this!

As Cao Xuan flipped through the books, he found six heaven-level, low-quality combat skills. There were more than 30 types of combat skills, and some of the combat skills were better than his.

After confirming the contents, Cao Xuan was not in a rush. He couldn’t help but walk out of the door and ask the old man, “Senior, are these techniques and combat skills originally available in the Great Wilderness Village?”

The old man said indifferently, “Isn’t it because the villagers came to the city to copy the books? Tsk, I heard that the City of Justice is very lively now, but it’s not convenient for me to go there. I’d rather stay here and enjoy my retirement.”

Cao Xuan asked in shock, “Are heaven-level combat skills copied too?”

The old man patted the chair. “After all, my miss is the city lord! Isn’t it normal for the Great Wilderness Village to copy a few more books?”

Cao Xuan exclaimed, “Ah! You…”

The old man smiled. “Don’t be surprised. When she was young, she took the little fool away. She has no feelings for me.”

Cao Xuan couldn’t help being interested. “Senior, was the city lord extremely talented? How many years has it been since she became so strong?”

The old man said, “Miss is not that talented. The fool is talented.”

“Huh?”

Cao Xuan frowned and said, “Who are you talking about?”

The old man smiled and said, “w.a.n.g Han! He used to be a fool, but he’s talented. In this world, there are few people who are as talented as him.”

Cao Xuan felt that something was wrong. If Marshal Han was talented, why was Ximen Linglan the city lord? However, it was said that Marshal Han was the one speaking on the Day of Liberation. Did he not hear enough information?

The old man said, “Actually, it’s nothing. There’s always a gap in talent. You can’t expect everyone to be a genius. In this chaotic world, geniuses sometimes don’t live long. By the way, you can’t stay here overnight. Go to another place to sleep.”

His teaching career was not boring, mainly because there were too few teachers in the Great Wilderness Village.

Cao Xuan was very busy every day. He had too many students, so he couldn’t take care of everyone. But the process of teaching was very fulfilling. While teaching others, he could also deepen his understanding. When he was free, Cao Xuan would go to the reef sh.o.r.e to take a look. He felt that this kind of life without adventure was good.

Unfortunately, this wasn’t his path. He wanted to become strong. Why didn’t he want the heaven-level combat skills he picked up for free?

Half a month later, the village leader took a group of 12-year-old children to the city.

Cao Xuan felt the pressure suddenly decrease. He saw that the peaches on the peach tree had grown out. He picked one of them and pushed open Han Fei’s door again.

Forget it, I’ll just take it as a break. I should find a place to sleep.

The night was as cold as water.

Cao Xuan didn’t dare to sleep deeply. Out of his habit, he subconsciously scanned around with his perception.

Suddenly, Cao Xuan felt that something was wrong when he scanned the room. He found that there was an interlayer in the wall.

“Huh? There’s something inside.”

Cao Xuan rose to his feet. Although he knew it didn’t seem right, this room hadn’t been occupied for too long and should have been abandoned long ago. It shouldn’t be a problem to satisfy his curiosity, right?

Behind a cabinet, Cao Xuan pulled off the dead leaves of the algae and found that there was a book, “Turtle Origin Breathing Technique”, a few weapons, and a few dried spiritual fruits hidden in a box.

He felt that these might have been left behind by others when they left earlier. However, there was another layer in this layer. However, the layer inside was covered with mud. If one didn’t perceive it, he wouldn’t have discovered the layer inside.

Cao Xuan thought to himself, It’s been hidden for so long. Marshal Han probably couldn’t find it when he was young. What if it’s very important?

Of course, Cao Xuan didn’t think it was a special treasure. It was just a small box.

After a while, when Cao Xuan took out the small wooden box, he found a letter and a ring inside.

Cao Xuan didn’t feel anything special about the ring, because it was too small and only suitable for newborn children. Out of curiosity, Cao Xuan opened the letter that wasn’t sealed and took a look.

However, as Cao Xuan looked at it, his expression suddenly became strange.

This was what was written in the letter.

“Han’er, if you can see this letter one day, it means that you have accidentally succeeded in cultivation, your mind should have recovered, and you are very strong. If that’s the case, you do need to read this letter. If others see it, please leave the letter here. This is of no value to you.”

Cao Xuan sighed and continued reading.

“Han’er, since you have become a strong master, I have to tell you. In fact, I told you that your mother is dead, but I actually have never married a wife. This world is so chaotic. I’m afraid I’ll die someday… If you sober up, don’t be fooled by others. Let me tell you, there are few people in this world who are trustworthy. Remember, remember…”

In the letter, apart from a lot of nags about not being tricked, the latter half surprised Cao Xuan.

It read:

“Han’er, I picked you up on the reef sh.o.r.e. At that time, you were wrapped in a ball as transparent as jellyfish skin and had nothing except this ring in your hand. Your parents probably left it to you! I don’t know whose family you are from. However, this should be a chance given to you by the heavens. You were born with great strength, but the heavens are jealous of geniuses. I tried countless times but still couldn’t make you cultivate. I tried my best! Alas, your father’s talent is average. I’ll probably die in battle. However, I’m not afraid. I’m used to it, but Han’er, don’t follow my old path. If you have to go to the battlefield, stay alive. As for whether you can find your biological parents or not, it depends on your ability. By the way, when you see this letter, I must probably have already died. Can you set up a tombstone for me? Right under the peach trees at the door. I want to live a leisurely life for a few days …”

The whole letter told about Han Fei’s mysterious background. Except for this, Cao Xuan was surprised that Marshal Han couldn’t cultivate when he was young.

Cao Xuan put away the letter and the ring, and a gleam of light appeared in his eyes. I shall give these to Marshal Han!

He knew that this was a chance, a great chance.

Three months later.

On the reef beach, thousands of youths were practicing punching, the air crackling.

Cao Xuan shouted angrily, “Stop!”

Cao Xuan was on a reef, his face fierce. “Today’s lesson is about the path… This is a turbulent era. Most of you will eventually walk out of the Great Wilderness Village. Everyone has their own path. Some people want to become strong, some want to live a better life, and some pursue adventure… However, the City of Justice has given you a road. It may become the place where you rise.”

Cao Xuan heaved a sigh in his heart and shouted coldly, “This is the best era and the worst era. Some people have died, and some have risen. The current City of Justice is different. I’ll lead you to cultivate. The next step will be up to you. My suggestion is to go to the City of Justice. I heard that there is a trial battlefield there. Perhaps, you will rise from there.”

Suddenly, a child asked, “Teacher, what’s your path?”

Cao Xuan froze for a moment, turned around, and looked at the vast sea.

He knew very well that the weak were not qualified to talk about their path. If they had a path, it must be the Infinite Ocean!
