"Private contact information?" Cheng Xiao looked puzzled.
"Yeah, isn't the contact information for you Hunter Mages only used for taking missions?" Mu Nujiao asked back.
Cheng Xiao shook his head:
"I don't know about that. You are my first employer after I became a Hunter Mage. This is my first time taking a commission.
"I only have one contact method. If you don't mind, add me on WeChat."
The cleanup mission in Bo City was a conscription, and strictly speaking, it wasn't a commission, so Cheng Xiao was right.
"So, I'm your first?" Mu Nujiao asked, a little excited.
Why did that sound so strange… Cheng Xiao nodded.
"That's great… Mmm, I don't mind." Mu Nujiao took out her phone and added Cheng Xiao's contact information:
"We'll contact each other online."
"Okay, goodbye."
"…"
.........…
Qing Tian Hunter Agency.
"In just half a day, you completed the commission, killed a War General, and saved a Spirit-level plant seed for the Mu Family."
Leng Qing praised, "Good junior brother, senior sister is really getting to like you more and more."
"The Spirit Seed was an unexpected gain, allowing me to earn a bit more money." Cheng Xiao said, looking up and down at Leng Qing's low-key and reserved attire, and couldn't help but ask:
"But Senior Sister Leng Qing, are you preparing to go out on a mission in the middle of the night?"
"Yes, my best friend in Hangzhou encountered a tricky mission and needs me to go help her overnight!" Leng Qing said with a face full of helplessness.
"Now you are a member of our Qing Tian Hunter Agency. If you don't understand anything, you can ask this little girl Ling Ling. Senior sister is leaving now~~~"
"Senior Sister, have a safe journey."
"…"
Cheng Xiao had already rented a house. The house provided by the Qing Tian Hunter Agency for hunter team members was temporarily unnecessary for him.
After saying hello to Ling Ling, Cheng Xiao went home. He hadn't forgotten that there was a younger sister waiting for him at home…
After telling Ye Xin Xia about today's commission, Ye Xin Xia's beautiful eyes immediately overflowed with starlight.
"Cheng Xiao Gege is amazing!" Ye Xin Xia had witnessed Cheng Xiao's abilities with her own eyes, so she naturally wouldn't think Cheng Xiao was bragging.
On the contrary, Cheng Xiao was being very low-key.
He just said he was a Novice Necromancer who killed a War General.
If such 'low-key' words were to spread, it was likely that countless Intermediate-level mages would be so angry they'd spit blood.
It was time to go to sleep.
"Cheng Xiao Gege, can you continue to sleep with me tonight?" Ye Xin Xia asked expectantly.
Cheng Xiao reached out and helplessly rubbed her hair:
"Haven't you gotten used to the new home yet?"
"Mmm, the new home is too big. I only feel safe with Cheng Xiao Gege by my side." Ye Xin Xia said softly.
"Since that's the case, I'll sleep with you for another night." Cheng Xiao said.
The two finished their bedtime washing.
Just as they were about to turn off the light and go to sleep, two unread messages came from his phone.
Cheng Xiao clicked on it and saw that the person who sent the message was Mu Nujiao.
It started with the most classic greeting, and then began to ask if he was free.
To this, Cheng Xiao's answer was:
[I'm free, but not for long. I'm about to go to sleep with my sister.]
On the other end of the phone, Mu Nujiao, who saw this message, was puzzled.
"Going to sleep so early, no nightlife? He also has a younger sister… She shouldn't be old, right?"
Mu Nujiao wanted to recruit Cheng Xiao into the Mu Family, of course, now was not the time.
Building a good relationship was the top priority. After all, she was Cheng Xiao's first, no, his first employer!
With this layer of relationship as a foundation, recruitment would be much more convenient…
Mu Nujiao: [I haven't had time to thank you properly for today's matter!]
Cheng Xiao: [Taking people's money and helping them eliminate disaster is what I should do.]
Mu Nujiao: [How about we go out for a meal another day? My treat!]
Cheng Xiao: [Okay.]
Seeing the other party's instant reply, Mu Nujiao instantly felt a sense of 'victory' joy.
Although she had only managed to ask Cheng Xiao out, there hadn't been much breakthrough, but at least there was progress, right?
[Then let's leave it at that for now, good night!]
After sending this message, Mu Nujiao clicked on the contact noted as "Ai Tutu" again.
"Tutu is more experienced than me in this area. I'll ask her what I should prepare when asking someone out." Mu Nujiao murmured to herself.
Just as she sent over the general situation, she waited for a few seconds.
The other party replied with a
[?]
The message that followed immediately made Mu Nujiao's eyes go black.
Original in the comments!
[Mu Nujiao, you want to fall in love?]
Shanghai, in a certain villa.
Ye Xin Xia was wearing a sheer nightgown, her raised face full of confusion:
"Cheng Xiao Gege, who are you chatting with?"
"Today's employer." Cheng Xiao said, then turned off his phone and placed it on the bedside table.
He turned his head, his gaze falling on Ye Xin Xia.
At this moment, Ye Xin Xia seemed to emit some kind of magic, a magical power that could attract people's attention and make it difficult to look away.
She was dressed too boldly, like she wasn't wearing anything... Cheng Xiao secretly muttered to himself, then lay down and held Ye Xin Xia in his arms:
"Sleep."
"Mmm."
Ye Xin Xia closed her beautiful eyes that showed a hint of delight, leaned into Cheng Xiao's embrace, and fell into a deep sleep.
.........…
Time flew by in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, a year had passed.
Shanghai, a villa located between Mingzhu Academy and the middle section of Qing Tian Hunter Agency.
Cheng Xiao sat cross-legged on the bed, the room filled with a dense dark aura mixed with shadow and Undead.
The dark aura became thicker and thicker. When it reached a certain critical point, all the dark matter was sublimated!
The stronger dark aura didn't go berserk, but like black smoke, it returned to Cheng Xiao's body…
Cheng Xiao slowly opened his eyes. His eyes became deeper and darker, and faintly, a flash of purple light could be seen!
"Middle-Rank… Is this the feeling?" Cheng Xiao raised his hand, feeling the power in his body at this moment.
Cheng Xiao could feel that not only had his cultivation broken through to Middle-Rank, but his physical strength had also been promoted.
Now, he was at least at the War General Level physique!
"Congratulations, King, on your promotion!" Yegret said, emerging from the shadows.
"Yegret, congratulations to you too. Your power, which was stagnant for a year, has finally increased." Cheng Xiao said.
As he broke through to Middle-Rank, Yegret also finally broke through to the War General Level.
Previously, because his cultivation was too weak, it caused Yegret to remain at the Servant-level peak for a whole year.
"The King's power has undergone a significant promotion, and the power sealed within your subordinate will also gradually be unsealed accordingly." Yegret explained.
Cheng Xiao nodded. This was about the same as what he had thought.
Although Yegret was only a minor War General Level now, the power he could unleash was far more than that!
"King, an old friend seems to have also awakened." Yegret said.
"Old friend?" Cheng Xiao looked puzzled.
As soon as he finished speaking, a phantom shot out from the shadow behind him.
In Cheng Xiao's eyes, besides Yegret, there was also a standing ant with wings.
The ant's size was large compared to a normal human.
It knelt on one knee towards Cheng Xiao and spoke in human language:
"Commander Bell, greetings, King!"
...…
Commander Bell:
