Chapter 1018: My Name Is Lin Dong

Luo Tian looked at Auntie Zhangs head again, only to see a faint golden exclamation mark flas.h.i.+ng above it. He then contemplated, Could this be the prelude to a hidden mission?

He couldnt really tell.

But since the system gave him a quest, then he might as well go through with it.

It should be helpful for any future quests.

Besides, Luo Tian had nothing else to do right now, so he could just go and take a look at what was going on. A hundred experience points was still experience. Walking a few steps to get a hundred experience points was easy to the max!

Okay.

Auntie Zhang, lead the way. Luo Tian made a thought to accept the weakest quest he had ever gotten in this world.

Auntie Zhang was faintly stunned before looking at Luo Tian in confusion, Eh? How did you know my surname is Zhang?

Uh

I was randomly guessing it. Did I really get it right? said Luo Tian, playing dumb.

Oh!

So thats the case.

Hahaha, it doesnt matter what surname this old woman has. You are my savior, so you can call me whatever you want. Auntie Zhang was very happy as she walked ahead. She then said, When my son heard that someone in Heavenly Spirit Pavilion stood up for me, he wanted to meet you very badly. He said something about how strange it was that there would still be people in this world who were willing to stand out and fight for the weak. It was an extremely rare thing to see happen.

Little Brother, if it werent for you today, I wouldnt be able to buy the Blood Spirit Powder. Im afraid my son will be rolling around in pain at this very moment.

I really want to thank you.

You are really my Lin familys benefactor!

Auntie Zhang kept speaking words of grat.i.tude as they walked.

She also spoke of some matters related to her son.

Her son was born in the Ancient World. Logically speaking, he should be considered a person born to be a martial artist. But for some strange reason, his cultivation realm can never go up. Every time he is about to break through, there seems to be a bottomless pit inside his body draining him.

It was useless no matter how desperately he cultivated.

For this reason, he constantly cultivated like his life didnt matter. Eventually, his body couldnt handle it anymore, and he became sick.

Even after falling sick, a strong force in his body was still devouring his spiritual essence. He could only use the Blood Spirit Powder to stop the pain. But the price of Blood Spirit Powder was simply too high. She relied on helping other families with their laundry and other odd jobs each month in order to buy a single portion of Blood Spirit Powder. Her son would sparingly use it whenever he was in too much pain. But for some reason, his pain suddenly appeared earlier than usual, and it was so strong that it was beyond bearable.

Otherwise, Auntie Zhang wouldnt have come out this late to buy some Blood Spirit Powder.

The money she used this time was from mortgaging her house!

Luo Tians heart was shaken when he heard how a single mother in dire straits was trying to survive with a sick son.

After about half an hour of traveling by foot, Luo Tian arrived in the slums in the south of the city to a small and narrow courtyard.

The small courtyard was clean and spotless.

It was minimally decorated.

Auntie Zhang walked into the courtyard and said, Its a bit simple, but feel free to do as you please.

After that, she called out, Donger

Donger Our benefactor is here! Auntie Zhang walked into a room. There was the sound of movement in the room, followed by some slight coughing. With the support of his mother, a thin and sickly-looking youth walked out.

Upon seeing Luo Tian in the courtyard, his expression was a little excited as he said, Thank you! Thank you! If it wasnt for you, my mother I really dont know how to thank you.

Luo Tian stepped forward and said with a smile, One should always help when one sees injustice. This is something all martial artists should do. You dont have to thank me. Those people were asking for a beating, or else I wouldnt have stepped in.

Auntie Zhang hurriedly said, Benefactor, please sit down!

At this moment, the system gave off an alert.

Ding!

Congratulations to player Luo Tian for completing the quest. You have gained 100 experience points, 10 yuan energy

Luo Tian waited for a few seconds, but the system didnt give off any more alerts. He was at a loss as he said to himself, It looks like I over-thought things. This wasnt a chain quest, and there werent any hidden quests involved.

Hidden quests were all powerful and mysterious.

It takes a lot of good character to trigger it.

Just when Luo Tian thought that was the end of his quest, he glanced at the top of Auntie Zhangs head. He didnt see the exclamation mark anymore, but there was a golden-colored exclamation mark on the top of her sons head!

Luo Tian furrowed his brow and said to himself, A quest! And the grade of this quest shouldnt be low!

However, he didnt activate it.

He felt things were a little bit strange.

Luo Tian wasnt in a hurry and sat on a stone stool. He looked at the sickly youth and asked, When did your illness start? I heard your mother say that theres a mysterious power in your body that keeps devouring the spiritual essence in your body. Is that true?

When the conversation touched up his illness, the youth sighed repeatedly before saying, My illness started two years ago, but the mysterious power has been inside my body ever since I can remember. All the cultivation these ten-plus years has been eaten up by it, or else the cultivation I have now would at least allow my mother to live a little bit better. Sigh~

Tears welled up in the corners of Auntie Zhangs eyes.

She was a little choked up.

She held her sons hand tightly and said kindly, As long as youre alive, it doesnt matter if Im a little more tired.

Luo Tian was touched by this scene and asked, You are currently relying on the Blood Spirit Powder to stop the pain, so is there any other medicine out there that can cure it? Or have you tried any ways to communicate with the devouring force in your body?

Auntie Zhang sighed and said, There was once an old gentleman who said that in order to cure the strange disease in my sons body, he needed a Power of Blood Spirit. Those things are millions of xuan coins! Even if I were to work as an ox for ten lifetimes, I still wouldnt be able to earn enough to buy one!

At this moment

Ding!

Congratulations to player Luo Tian for triggering a quest!

Quest: Help Auntie Zhang and her son.

Quest Grade: S

Quest Reward: Power of Explosive Spirit, Heaven Sword, 100,000 experience points, and 10,000 yuan energy.

What?!

Luo Tian was instantly dumbstruck.

He was stunned silly when he stared at the quest, the grade, and the rewards!

Completely dumbstruck!

He originally thought there would be a hidden quest but didnt expect it to be an S grade. He also didnt expect the quest rewards to be so heaven-defying!

Power of Explosive Spirit is what I need to unseal my Berserk skill!

Heaven Sword?

Is that the sword in the novel The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber? It cant be that f.u.c.king fierce, right?

Could it be that the level 2 system can still reward me with items from novels? Just like my Blood Devouring Wild Blade? When Luo Tian saw the words, Heaven Sword, his saliva couldnt help but flow out of his mouth. His face looked like a guy stepping inside a brothel and seeing a large group of breast-baring beautiful girls winking at him.

Luo Tian was moved!

Too f.u.c.king moved!

Who wouldnt be moved by the Power of Explosive Spirit and the Heaven Sword as rewards?

Luo Tian suddenly asked, What is your name?

He was just casually asking and didnt expect anything.

The young man replied seriously, My name is Lin Dong.

Did the main character of Wu Dong Qian Kun appear?
