“How is that possible? Isn’t the Mission Authorization Letter with me? How could someone else collect the reward?” Li Wei asked in disbelief.

“Under normal circumstances, yes, but teachers with high cultivation don’t need the Mission Authorization Letter,” the receptionist politely replied.

“Owen, return me my hard-earned money!” Li Wei roared as he left the Mission Office.



On the training ground, it was rare for Owen to arrive early.

“I don’t know what that brat Li Wei is doing every day. He still hasn’t come to training at this hour. He’s late.” Owen yawned.

“Teacher Owen!” At this moment, Li Wei, whose eyes were ablaze, walked over from afar.

“Aiya, why is Little Li Wei so angry?” Owen asked with a grin.

“What do you think, Teacher Owen?”

Owen looked at Li Wei’s expression and hurriedly explained, “Little Li Wei, you see, I’ve accompanied you for such a long distance this time and have been protecting you all along. Even if I haven’t contributed much, I’ve worked hard. It’s not too much to take some money, right?”

“Of course it’s not too much, but at least it has to be divided equally between the two of us. What about my share?” Li Wei asked with a face full of righteous indignation.

“You can give your share to me as a show of respect. After all, I’m an old man. I’ve been through a lot and I still have to be your bodyguard,” Owen said with a miserable face.

Hearing this, Li Wei had no choice but to stop arguing. He knew that he could not win the argument against this middle-aged scoundrel.

Li Wei sat down and continued to cultivate the divine judgment battle spirit. He discovered that this was a cultivation technique that fused the battle spirit and battle technique. After cultivating it for an entire night, Li Wei could clearly feel that his cultivation speed had increased. Now, he wanted to stabilize the battle spirit that he had just leveled up!

Just as Li Wei was cultivating, Clayderman walked over. He looked at Li Wei and could not help but feel a little surprised. This kind of pure holy aura might not even be possessed by the people of the Church of Light.

“Clayderman, what are you doing here? Is that old man Bill here to cause trouble again?”

“Don’t worry. That sword attack of yours had scared him out of his wits. How would he dare to come looking for trouble now?”

“Then, what are you doing here? You’re not going to scold me again, are you?” Owen was obviously very unfriendly toward his senior brother.

However, there was nothing Owen could do since he had taken the reward money to gamble yesterday.

“Don’t worry, I already know that a leopard won’t change its spots, so I won’t bother with your stupid matters anymore. It’s Teacher who’s looking for you.”

“You’re the leopard!” Then, Owen flew off into the air.

Clayderman looked at the scene of Owen flying away with envy. There was nothing he could do. Owen was the most talented one among them, but he was a little temperamental.

After Owen left, Clayderman did not leave. Instead, he stood on the spot to protect Li Wei, who was cultivating.



Meanwhile, Owen came to Wei Nuo’s small house.

“Why did the old man call me here again?” Owen sat down unceremoniously on the chair opposite Wei Nuo.

“How dare you call your teacher that?” Wei Nuo asked in a bad mood.

“Are you going to tell me or not? If you don’t, I’m leaving.” Owen turned around and was about to leave.

“You little b*stard, you’re already so old and still so ill-tempered. Sit down, this is serious business!” Wei Nuo also had no way to deal with this student of his who was so jumpy.

“Then, tell me.” Owen heard that there was serious business, so he did not fool around anymore.

“You found the whereabouts of the Church of Darkness in the Holy Knight Village?” Wei Nuo poured two cups of coffee. Then, he took a sip from his cup.

“Yes, that person ran away when he saw the Baptism Blade. I don’t know his specific strength, but he’s definitely not weak,” Owen thought for a moment and said.

“It seems that the problem this time is really serious,” Wei Nuo sighed and said.

Owen, who was an impatient person, could not stand the pace of speech. He hurriedly urged Wei Nuo, “Don’t keep me in suspense. Hurry up and tell me what happened!”

“During the few days when you went to Holy Knight Village with Li Wei, something happened in Langdon City.

“First, there were people who went missing. The academy’s scouting team and the City Lord’s guards jointly searched for them but to no avail.

“After a few days, those people came back unscathed. At first, everyone treated it as nothing, but just now, those people had self-detonated.

“Moreover, they self-detonated with the undead magic. Fortunately, the people from the church arrived in time. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

“You mean that this is the work of the Church of Darkness?” Owen asked with uncertainty.

Wei Nuo nodded.

Owen asked with some confusion, “What’s the big deal? Isn’t it just a group of terrorists who created an explosion?”

“Sigh, if that’s really the case, that would be great. The people from the Church of Darkness never do anything without a purpose.

“From the wolf bandits raiding villages to this explosion, I think there’s a certain connection. However, I’m not too sure about their motives.”

“You want me to investigate?” Owen asked.

“Yes, you’re the only person the academy can send out now,” Wei Nuo replied.

“Sigh, I’m really born with a hard life. I didn’t expect to be given such a task after accepting a student. But don’t worry, I’ll definitely complete the task.” Owen first complained but then promised to do what he should.

“It’s been hard on you, but this matter is no small matter. You must handle it carefully. Don’t lose your life,” Wei Nuo was a little worried as he instructed Owen.

“Don’t worry, Old Man, I’ll be careful. I’ll be troubling you for the next few days with Li Wei.” After saying that, Owen got up and left.



Li Wei gradually stopped circulating his battle spirit and opened his eyes.

“Uncle Clayderman? Where’s my teacher?” Li Wei looked at the person in front of him and asked in puzzlement.

“Teacher has something that he wants Owen to do. I’ll stay here to protect you.” Li Wei nodded when he heard that.

However, he could not help but feel a little curious. Why did Wei Nuo call Owen away in such a hurry?

“Alright, don’t think too much. There are things you’ll know when the time comes. Now, I want to tell you something.

“The divine meteorite space is about to open, so make preparations in the next few days. If there’s anything you need, you can tell me or Teacher.”

“Divine meteorite space? What’s that?” Li Wei asked with some confusion.

“You don’t even know about the divine meteorite space? Owen didn’t tell you?” Clayderman asked with his eyes wide open.

Li Wei shook his head.

“This guy really forgets everything when he plays. Let’s see how I’ll discipline him when he comes back.”

As he said this, Clayderman was a little worried about Owen. He knew what his junior brother was going to do. Originally, this kind of thing should be done by him as a senior brother. However, his strength was not strong enough, so he could only let his junior brother go.

However, Clayderman quickly gathered his emotions and explained to Li Wei about the divine meteorite space..
