Chapter 70: Rescue 98 Points

"It shouldn't be. It seems like I ran into a tough guy."

"Forget it. Find a few people and lead the law enforcement team to look for the missing ordinary people. They...will come back naturally tomorrow when they have had enough fun."

"Yes."

The subordinate lowered his head with uncontrollable contempt in his eyes. After leaving the office, he couldn't help but complain to his colleagues.

"The president dotes on his son so much, it will be over sooner or later."

"That's right. It's really unfortunate for us in S City to have such a president. The four elders don't care about the matter. I just hope that Jiang City can solve the source of the aliens as soon as possible, otherwise our S City will fall soon."

"Hopefully, it's just a pity for those ignorant ordinary people. Remember to inform your relatives and friends around you to stay away from the red fog..."

"Hey, thanks for the reminder, I'll go right away."

On this day, dark clouds gathered in Jiang City for several days and finally formed a downpour.

The number of missing persons has reached three digits.

Everyone was in a panic.

The Spiritual Association became the target of public criticism.

But the news that the youngest Grandmaster Gu Qingpei had gone to deal with the alien species suddenly spread, which calmed people's hearts a little.

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, there is no problem that cannot be solved with a master around.

However, four or five days later, news of the Grandmaster's loss of contact spread within the organization.

Jiang City Spiritual Association.

The heavy rain lasted for several days, and everyone became anxious.

"What should we do? Senior Gu has been missing for 5 days. Should we report it in advance?"

"The Grandmaster from City S is still unwilling to come? Are they just going to stand by and watch?"

"President, what should we do now?"

Jiang Nanxuan shook his head. In fact, he had already reported it yesterday, but for some reason, there was no news from the other side.

There are only a few registered masters in Kyoto. If something happens to Gu Qingpei, the power of the entire Xia Kingdom will have to be reshuffled.

I'm afraid someone over there can't stand seeing him.

Privately, he felt that such a genius was an eyesore, but his conscience was burning him.

This young master came to help them. Now that he was in danger, how could he watch him die with peace of mind?
"Don't worry. Didn't the vice president also get stuck in the fog today? I believe the great elder is more anxious than us."

Jiang Nanxuan calmed himself down and said, "If they still haven't taken action this afternoon, I will go to the eastern suburbs again in person and bring Senior Gu out."

........................

Five days is neither long nor short.

These days, Jiang Shu has not left the house at all. She has been comforting her best friend Shen Nian, practicing, playing games with the blood packs, and trying to earn points. She was so busy that she almost forgot to eat.

And every day I would go to the Dark Spirit website to take a look to see if any of the tasks there were looking for people had been completed.

But after a few days, the number of messages looking for people in Dongjiao increased, but not a single one was completed.

The villa was quiet these days, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing. Only Father Jiang was still working as usual, and he didn't seem to be affected much. However, he came back much earlier in the afternoon.

Jiang Nanxuan must be busy with the association's affairs and has never come back.

Fourth brother Jiang Linchen and fifth brother Jiang Li whisper to each other every day, and no one knows when their relationship became so good.

Moreover, the two of them went to the hospital to see Jiang Yaoyao every day, rain or shine. Before leaving, they explained to her that they were just going to take a look and asked her not to misunderstand.

Jiang Shu was too lazy to pay attention to them and didn't care at all.

She might as well spend more time with Shen Nian. That day, the system suddenly made a sound in her mind: [Host, 98 points is in danger! ]

[Gu Qingpei? ]

[Yes, host. Shen Linhui who scored 97 points is also here. Do you want to save them? ]

[No, it's too dangerous. At worst, I can find another 98-pointer.]

Although Jiang Shu also wanted to save her best friend's brother and her future teacher Gu Qingpei.

However, how could she dare to go there without knowing her own limitations when even the Grandmaster was helpless?

[Host, there are not so many 98 points in this world! ]

Er San San seemed to care about Gu Qing Pei very much, Jiang Shu asked curiously: [Is 97 points not important? ]

[That's different. 98 points means he is a child of luck. There may not be many such people in the world. If one less person is like him, it would be a huge loss for us.]

It turns out that scores above 95 are not only based on appearance, but also on luck. Er Sansan said that 98 points is already top-notch, and there is basically no higher than that.

When obtaining points for a target with a score of 95 or above, she can also obtain some additional luck points, which is why Er Sansan encouraged her to find this type of task target.

[Forget it, I still think it's too dangerous, so I won't go. ]

Jiang Shu didn't like the system hiding things, so he closed his eyes and lay down on the bed, not getting up.

Now it was the system's turn to get anxious. It said in shock: [Host, hurry up, I will never hide anything from you again. That bit of luck is of no use to you. It's just to replenish my energy. After I have energy, can't I make more fun potions for you? ]

Jiang Shu lay there motionless: [Oh.]

The system's electronic voice suddenly changed into a pitiful little loli: [Host~Don't be angry, I just want to use this energy to transform into a human form. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you wouldn't like it.]

This time it was Jiang Shu's turn to be shocked. Who was that little girl in his mind who was naked, had three heads and six arms?

[Er San San, is this your humanoid? ]

She was a little speechless.

Er San San turned his back and cried while using six hands to wipe the tears from three heads: [Wow, I knew you didn’t like it, so I didn’t want to tell you! ]

【.】

Jiang Shu sighed helplessly: [Don't cry, I promised you that I would save people. ]

Deep in the eastern suburbs.

Gu Qing Pei stood beside a dead tree, his whole body soaked by the rain, and the long sword could hardly support his body.

Standing opposite him was his fellow apprentice Gu Jingzhou, with whom he had been with in the Taoist temple for many years.

He was also a Grandmaster, but he had just been promoted not long ago, so he was no match for Gu Qing Pei.

But this red mist can devour human spiritual energy, and there is also the existence of that alien species. After consuming a large amount of Gu Qingpei's spiritual energy, he was ready to throw the person here and let him fend for himself.

"I'm sorry, Senior Brother. You can only blame yourself for being too talented and making others jealous."

"I have no other choice."

After all, they had been fellow apprentices for more than ten years, and he did not have the heart to kill him with his own hands. If he let Gu Qing Pei die at the hands of an alien, at least if his master asked, he could confidently say that it had nothing to do with him.

After everyone left, Gu Qing Pei coughed lightly and a mouthful of blood spurted into the mud. He was unable to support his body and suddenly fell to the ground.

He had already suffered internal injuries from fighting for several days, and now he was assassinated by his junior fellow apprentice. His heartbeat and pulse were gradually weakening. If it were not for his strong physique and obsession with revenge, he might not have survived until now.

In the rain, Gu Qingpei's body just lay in the mud, feeling the temperature slowly fading away.

In his dying trance, he seemed to have a hallucination, as if someone was waving at him.
