29 Chapter 29 Two Fate Quests, Destiny Line Connection and Xiao Wu.

Rayne thought for a while on how to deal with Xiao Wu. He originally didn't want to impose his will on Xiao Wu and forcibly keep her with him, why is why he had sent her back to Great Star Dou Forest in the world of life simulation.

But now that he knows that just sending her away won't change the result. So, he decided to be more forceful about it. At least, he will keep her with him till he's sure that she won't get in his way.

Rayne decided to close his eyes and sleep for a bit. By the time it was afternoon, he woke up and left his dormitory.

It took two days to completely receive the bloodline and memory reward of the life simulation.

"If I'm not wrong, mom should be coming tomorrow. Now then, how should I deal with Tang Hao? In the simulated life, I just let him be and also didn't go after Ah Yin, because I was worried about what kind of destruction he'll cause after losing his mind. But he still attacked me anyway during the continental spirit master competition."

"I had decided to not bother with him in the simulated life, since he's technically taking revenge for his dead wife. I won't use teleportation to leave here with mom like in the simulated life. I'll give that hammer swinging rough bastard a scare. If he still decides to take action against me, then I'll put him through hell." Rayne thought to himself.

"Now what should I do? Anyway, it's obvious that I won't get much opportunities for development even if I join Spirit Hall. Even without Bibi Dong, the Qian family will not allow someone other than it's family members to become the Supreme Pontiff. Even Bibi Dong herself can only be considered a temporary Supreme Pontiff. Qian Daoliu has made it obvious that he'll transfer the position to Qian Renxue when he feels that the time is right."

"Anyway, for me, joining Spirit Hall is nothing but restriction. It's better to build my own force. It's not as if I haven't done it before."

Rayne made up his mind to build his own force and live unrestrained in this life. He'll accomplish everything he desires.

[Ding! Two Fate Quests have been generated.]

No Penalty.]

"This quest… while the rewards are very good, the quest itself is quite hard to complete. While it's not too hard for me, it is obviously a quest that will take quite a long time to complete. If I use the critical strike card on this quest… sheesh, that's a lot of rewards."

[Second Quest: Counter Attack.

Tang Hao has learned about your 'second awakening' from Yu Xiaogang, and is now determined to get rid of you, a potential threat to Clear Sky Clan.

Task Requirements: (1) Kill Tang Hao, or make him suffer heavy injuries that can incapacitate him for a long time. (2) Steal Ah Yin and resurrect her to prevent the future awakening of Tang San's Blue Silver Empress martial soul. (3) Take away the Blue Silver Empress 100,000-year-old leg soul bone.

Rewards: Immortal Herbs (10 pieces), Little Qiankun Creation Pills (10 pieces), A Random Top Martial Soul.

No Penalty.]

"Tang Hao… This guy is everywhere. Well, He does have great enmity with my father, so it's not really unreasonable for him wanting to get rid off a potential threat like me. Not to mention, according to him, I also have father-killing hatred towards him, and is bound to be his enemy. It can't be helped. Let's punish him a bit."

"As for Ah Yin… since I'm going to be targeted by Tang Hao regardless of whether I take her or not, then I'll take her. I don't mind if I fail to capture her heart and she even leave. But, if she insists on going back to Tang Hao after resurrection and make trouble for me, I'll wipe her memory clean and allow her to continue to exist as just Blue Silver Empress."

After he made up his mind, Rayne looked at the rewards.

The soul bone rewards are quite easy to understand.

And the reward of martial soul is what he considers worthless. He's already a three-life martial soul owner. Rayne feels that three martial souls are more than enough. If the martial soul from the reward is a good one, he'll give it to his mother Shui Xin'er or his sister Sylvia.

Immortal herbs are also quite simple to understand. They are one of the biggest magical cultivation resources in Douluo continent. Just one immortal herb can turn the fate of someone from mediocre to top class or even God level potential.

Gold of Life. This is a super heaven and earth treasure, no matter what world it is in.

The Life Gold is the material representation of life energy. Put more simply, it's the product of condensing copious amounts of life energy, and a treasure of the world that only can come about after many years of gestation and incubation. The vast amounts of life energy contained within Life Gold are extremely beneficial to any living being. Every living being represents a life, but every piece of Life Gold represents an entire world.

Even the sum of the million years life of Skydream Iceworm is only about the size of a teardrop of Life Gold.

The value of an adult's fist sized Life Gold is immeasurable.

The Qiankun Creation Pill and Little Qiankun Creation Pill.

Qiankun Creation Pill is an extremely precious and powerful pill refined with many kinds of immortal herbs. One pill has more than enough energy to promote a level 90 Titled Douluo to level 98, or even level 99.

Because of the immortal herbs used, those who consume this pill have their talent and potential greatly enhanced.

The Little Qiankun Creation Pill is a weaker version of the original version. But even then, it still has enough energy within it to promote a level 98 to level 99 Extreme Douluo. Even a level 90 titled Douluo can get an improvement of at least two ranks or even three.

And lastly the rare metals of more than fifty types. To Rayne who is a Soul Engineer and a 10th rank Divine Blacksmith, these metals are very useful.

…

Rayne walked into the academy premises, and the young students who saw him all kept some distance away from him.

Obviously, for children like them, the beating Rayne gave to Yu Xiaogang has scared them a little.

He walked into the grounds, where the work-study students are assigned to clean the place, to look for Xiao Wu.

But when he came here, he didn't see neither Xiao Wu nor Tang San.

He saw Wang Sheng standing aside and looking at a few students cleaning the place.

But the thing was, these student didn't look like the civilian work-study students. Rather, they were dressed quite well. Rayne guessed that these kids were of the aristocrats section. Although he was somewhat confused as to why these usually arrogant and proud aristocrat students were cleaning the place assigned to work-study students, he didn't care too much about it.

Rayne walked towards Wang Sheng.

"Hello, Brother Rayne!" The kids who saw him immediately greeted, surprising him.

Seeing Rayne walking towards him, Wang Sheng was surprised and somewhat wary, he immediately greeted.

"Good afternoon, Brother Rayne. Do you need something here?"

"Yes. Where is Xiao Wu? I have something to talk to her about. Also, why are these guys doing the jobs assigned to you work-study students?" Rayne said.

Wang Sheng was startled by this question and cautiously replied.

"Sister Xiao Wu has assigned our works to all these senior students after she and Tang San defeated them. As for Sister Xiao Wu, she is taking a break today and she warned us not to disturb her free day… otherwise.. She will… beat us up."

At the end of the sentence, Wang Sheng was feeling very awkward.

Rayne had an amused expression after hearing Wang Sheng's words.

"This rogue rabbit is as unscrupulous as always. Wang Sheng, go call her. Just say that I called her."

Wang Sheng had a troubled look on his face. After getting along for just a little more than three days, Wang Sheng and his group knows how domineering and unscrupulous Xiao Wu is. If he is targeted, then he might have to be the tragic sparring partner for Xiao Wu for a few days. He is not Tang San, and do not have the strength or skills to fight Xiao Wu.

"Just go call her. Also say that, if she doesn't come here within ten minutes, I'll force her to eat a roasted soft boned rabbit."

Rayne said to Wang Sheng in a calm tone.

"…Yes." Wang Sheng slowly nodded, then immediately rushed off to find Xiao Wu.

After that, Rayne looked at the three boys looking at him. Two of them in particular seemed to have some injuries, though it doesn't look serious.

"You three, who are you, and why are you working on Work-study students' stead? Even if you work here, the pay still belongs to those work-study students right?" Rayne asked casually. As for these three boys who looked to be almost twelve years old, Rayne had a guess as to who they are.

The boy who looked to be the leader of among the three boys was surprised for a moment by the sudden question by Rayne.

He didn't dare to be disrespectful towards this white haired blue eyed boy who was almost six years younger than himself. He saw with his own eyes how this six-year-old boy had dominated a level 29 spirit master like Yu Xiaogang effortlessly.

"I am Xiao Chenyu, a sixth year student. These two are Ling Feng and Liu Long. They are also sixth year students just like me. We are working here because we lost to Xiao Wu and Tang San. And before the fight, there was a bet between us. Now we are working here on behalf of the work-study students because of the bet."

Xiao Chenyu said in a low and somewhat depressed voice. Liu Long and Ling Feng also had depressed expressions.

Of course Rayne didn't pay any attention to their depressed tone.

"Xiao Chenyu, Liu Long and Ling Feng… Since you've even had a fight with Tang San and have a decisive plot appearance, I guess you three can be considered named characters?" Rayne muttered in a low voice.

"???" Xiao Chenyu and the other two had confused expressions on their faces, unable to understand what Rayne meant.

"How old are you three, and what are your martial soul and soul power level? " Rayne asked again.

"…" The three boys had hesistant expressions. They didn't know why Rayne was asking them of these details that could be considered personal.

"Just tell me. I don't have any ill intention. Your details shouldn't be that big of a secret." Rayne said with a smile.

"Xiao Chenyu, age 12 and martial soul is Battle Wolf, innate soul power level 3, now level 11 Attack System."

"Liu Long, age 12 and martial soul is Stick, innate soul power level 2, now level 9 Attack System."

"Ling Feng, age 12 and martial soul is crow, innate soul power level 2, now level 9 Agility Attack System."

Hearing the introductions of the three, Rayne looked at them thoughtfully.

'Twelve years old now. Won't cross the age of twenty five during the time Shrek Academy participates in the continental spirit master competition. Their talent is indeed horrible. But the martial souls aren't actually too bad. There is a lot of room for improvement if trained properly.'

Rayne thought to himself for a bit, then looked at the three boys and slowly said.

"You three, do you want to join the force I'm going to create? I can turn you three into geniuses and give you good cultivation resources. But in return, you will be loyal to my organization."

"… Are you making fun of us? I don't think we have done anything to offend you." Xiao Chenyu said cautiously. Of course he wouldn't believe Rayne's words so easily.

"I'm not making fun of you. I'm serious about turning you into geniuses. I do have the resources to achieve such a feat quite easily." Rayne said casually.

He indeed does have the resources. He still has more than 14,800 Superior grade Mystic Water Pill. One pill can cleanse the body and meridians, at the same time nourish the meridians with its energy. It can increase the innate soul power by five on the first use, one more level on the next two uses. One person can only take up to three of this pills. At the same time, this pill also increases the soul power level by five on the first use, three levels on the second use, and two levels on the third use.

Even if the target barely has half-level innate soul power, three of these pills can turn the target into a genius with innate soul power of almost level 8.

Liu Long and Ling Feng looked excited after hearing Rayne's words, but Xiao Chenyu was still skeptical.

"Why us? Our innate soul power is only level 3 and level 2. There is no reason for us to be favoured by you when there are obviously much better talents at the big cities."

Xiao Chenyu was not like the other two. He is the son of the City Lord of Nuoding City. He is aware that there are many people of the same age at the big cities, that can make him look completely insignificant.

"Well, your talent isn't what I care about you." Rayne said, and an amused smirk appeared on his face.

"What? Then why?" Xiao Chenyu asked in confusion.

"It's because you have a small destiny line connection with someone with great luck. If I change your fates greatly, some of the luck concentrated on that certain someone will transfer to you. Of course, the destiny line connection will also completely change in nature, and you guys will unconsciously attract the animosity of that certain someone. And besides you, I also intend on inviting Wang Sheng, since he's in a similar situation to you."

"To put it simply, you'll evolve from insignificant mob that is ignored by the protagonist, to a significant villain that the protagonist must overcome." Rayne said.

"… I didn't understand most of what you said. But you are saying that we'll become enemies with someone if we join you?" Xiao Chenyu asked cautiously.

"That's right. But you don't have to worry too much. This certain someone isn't someone too strong for you at this point. And if you join me, your finish line won't be just some level 20 or 30." Rayne said.

"….. What if we betray you after we get all the benefits from you?" Xiao Chenyu asked.

"That won't happen. Before I allow you to enter my organization, I'll have you enter a binding vow with me. The binding vow is a special contract technique. Those who violate the binding vow will pay with their lives." Rayne said with a calm smile.

"An ordinary life or a glorious life. You chose." Rayne said.

Xiao Chenyu looked at Liu Long and Ling Feng. They both nodded.

Xiao Chenyu looked at Rayne and said, "Okay, we agreed. Please take care of us."

"Hm." Rayne just hummed and extended his hand. A bunch of illusory chains had surrounded the three boys and Rayne, and were connected to each other. The illusory chains disappeared after a few seconds.

Of course, this illusory image of chains were purposely showed by Rayne to make the three boys be aware of the fact that they have been bound by the binding vow since the moment they agreed.

At the same time.

[Ding! Congratulations for recruiting three named characters. Please work hard to recruit seven more named characters.]

Rayne looked at the three of them and said, "I'll be leaving this academy tomorrow. I'll bring you along with me. Go say your farewells to your families. It'll take a while for you to come back. If they ask you, just say that you decided to follow a Soul Saint for training."

"Okay. But… the cleaning here…" Xiao Chenyu had just said before a burst of wind erupted from Rayne.

All the dried leaves and branches on the ground were all gathered and compressed into a ball shape by the strong winds. Then, with a snap of Rayne's fingers, the compressed ball of all the garbage was set ablaze with high temperature flame and was reduced to ashes in seconds.

The three boys were dumbstruck by this casual performance by Rayne.

"It's done. Now go." Rayne waved his hand and motioned them to leave.

The three of them left.

About five minutes later, a bouncing pretty little girl with rabbit ears and a scorpion braid hair style, appeared.

"… What do you need from me?" Xiao Wu asked cautiously.

She was now somewhat scared of this young boy with white hair and blue eyes.

Just a few minutes ago, Wang Sheng had told her exactly what Rayne had said. While initially angry, she was shocked and even afraid after hearing the specific name, 'Soft Boned Rabbit'.

She truly wished from the bottom of her heart that, this particular name was only mentioned by coincidence.

"Well, we have some things to discuss, bunny girl."
