Chapter 543: Chapter 303: Passing Down Skills
Yu Shiliu thought her plan was good and perfectly calculated.
But now... she felt her idea was not so good.
Because she didn’t expect Chu Qing to see through her schemes and thoughts with just one glance.
All her plans were now in vain.
How could such a master ever want to keep a person with a scheming mind by their side?
A genuine despair appeared on her face.
An opportunity to break free from the shackles of fate was right in front of her, but she felt as if she could never grasp it...
"Three points, you say?"
Chu Qing touched his chin, and suddenly smiled:
"That’s not bad. If I were in your position, I might not be as conscientious as you."
"Huh?"
Yu Shiliu was stunned.
Chu Qing then helped her up:
"First, I’m not an Immortal, just an ordinary person who knows a bit of farming skills."
Yu Shiliu didn’t believe this at all.
Farming skills?
With just a flick of the hand, flames surged.
The expert that the steward boasted about couldn’t survive even a single move from you, and you crushed all his bones.
And you call this farming skills?
The steward did say that the person’s martial arts were only second to Li Shengxing.
"Second, I’m not exactly a good person either.
Helping you was within my power; if it had endangered my life, I might not have helped."
This was also true.
When poor, maintain one’s integrity; when wealthy, help the world.
But doing good deeds has the precondition of having enough strength to protect oneself.
Otherwise, to sacrifice oneself recklessly to save someone... Chu Qing doesn’t deny this spirit, and admires those people, but he can’t do it.
So he doesn’t consider himself a good person. He just did something within his power that he could easily accomplish.
Yu Shiliu thought being a good person meant loving good kids who are dedicated to others... and that was truly laughable.
However, these words indeed confused Yu Shiliu a bit.
She looked at Chu Qing, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Chu Qing said thoughtfully:
"I know what you desire, I’ll take Li Shengxing’s life.
"And the reward you mentioned, we’ll fulfill the promise after Li Shengxing’s death.
"Until then, follow us."
Looking at this girl in front of him, Chu Qing couldn’t help but think of another girl...
Shen Hongye!
The girl who, out of curiosity, took an extra look at Guo Wang on the street, and was ultimately exterminated along with her entire family by Guo Wang.
Chu Qing felt sorry for her tragic life and taught her the Rebellious Divine Skill and Dragon Claw Hand of the Jade Dragon Immortal.
And the life of Yu Shiliu in front of him was even more tragic than Shen Hongye.
At least Shen Hongye experienced the care of her family and the love from her brother.
But Yu Shiliu... she wandered from childhood and never felt a bit of warmth from this world.
How could such a child be as pure-hearted as Shen Hongye?
Her bit of scheming was indeed natural.
The fact that she held onto three parts sincerity, wanting to prevent the tragedy brought by Li Shengxing, already counted as kindness.
Yu Shiliu then realized Chu Qing’s words, and immediately her eyes went red, kneeling on the ground with a thud:
"Thank you, benefactor, for your mercy.
"Thank you, benefactor, for your mercy!"
Chu Qing flicked his sleeve and helped her up, and at that moment, a system notification popped up in front of him.
[Task Triggered: Assassinate Little Knife King Li Shengxing!]
[Note: This task can merge with the "Nameless on the List" progress!]
[Merge?]
[Accept?]
Chu Qing slightly frowned, what does this mean?
Li Shengxing is one of the masters on the Evil Extermination List, related to the "Nameless on the List" task chain, which makes sense.
But... how does it count after merging?
What does it mean not to merge?
Chu Qing silently questioned twice in his heart, the system remained silent...
Damn it!
Chu Qing felt a bit annoyed; this mute system has just this drawback, without AI to explain anything when unclear.
He pondered over it in his heart for quite some time.
It seemed that if he merged, it would most likely directly trigger the [Nameless on the List] task chain.
If he didn’t merge, he probably would have to reach Cold Valley and investigate further to trigger [Nameless on the List].
What Chu Qing was unsure of is how the task from Yu Shiliu would count if merged.
If treating these two as separate tasks, one would settle the Random Martial Arts Treasure Chest reward, while the other would distribute rewards based on the conditions of Nameless on the List.
This way, it wouldn’t matter...
The only fear is that it would directly eliminate Yu Shiliu’s task.
The most direct difference between the two is, in the former case, one target can yield two rewards.
In the latter, only once, collecting rewards based solely on the conditions of Nameless on the List.
Therefore, after some consideration, Chu Qing chose not to merge.
Instead, he directly accepted the task.
Anyway, regardless, Li Shengxing must die.
This reward, he’s set on obtaining.
As for the task chain of Nameless on the List... since it hasn’t been triggered yet, why bother considering so much?
However, this may lead to some unforeseeable consequences.
Like after accepting this task, Li Shengxing’s name would be removed from the task of Nameless on the List.
Thus, missing out on the categorized Martial Arts Treasure Chest related to Li Shengxing.
The ultimate result would be replacing a categorized Martial Arts Treasure Chest with a Random Martial Arts Treasure Chest.
