As he spoke, although Zhu Xiao did not look at Lin Hao, many people present knew that this Southern Cold elder was warning Lin Hao.

After all, during this period of time, Lin Hao's reputation was flourishing, and with his reputation growing, the matter of him and Zhu Xiao having some conflicts when he had just entered the Sect was dug out. Thus, many gazes involuntarily turned towards Lin Hao's position, thinking that, in his heart, it was likely that he would have suffered a lot during this core disciple training session.

Amongst them, the number one core disciple in the Southern Cold, Zhou Wenze, couldn't wait to have a conflict with Elder Zhu because of his unwillingness to accept it. This way, he would be able to see the scene of Lin Hao being taught a lesson.

However, Zhou Wenze was quickly disappointed.

Lin Hao's expression was very calm, as he was not affected by the surroundings at all.

"Hmph, if you are able to hold it in now, I don't believe that you will be able to hold it in forever!" Zhou Wenze thought to himself. In any case, they had been out training together for as long as a month. There were plenty of opportunities to deal with Lin Hao.

Following that, eighty Freezing Sky Sect core disciples followed Zhu Xiao and left the Freezing Sky Sect.

Along the way, Zhu Xiao had arranged for a portion of his core disciples to stay behind. Before they left, he had already planned out what they would need to do, and after a month, they would assess the completed arrangements according to the disciples of each sect. If they completed it well, they would receive rewards from the Sect, but if they completed it poorly, then, the punishment would naturally be unavoidable.

On the fourth day, Lin Hao and the other two disciples of North Cold Branch finally received a mission from Zhu Xiao. In the next few days, they would be in a mountain forest filled with villages, helping the villagers solve the problem of the group of bandits.

The two people who accompanied Lin Hao, were named Zhang Feng and Luo Hai. Both of them possessed First Level of Elemental Core Stage cultivation, so when Zhu Xiao brought the others and left, Zhang Feng looked at Lin Hao and said: "Junior-Apprentice Brother Lin, for this mission, everything is up to you."

Although they called Lin Hao their junior brother, but they knew in their hearts that their junior brother's cultivation was much stronger than theirs, so their mission this time would be to mainly look for Lin Hao.

The other one, called Luo Hai, had an angry look on his face as he said: "This elder from the Southern Cold is really too outrageous. Other people's missions, we have concrete leads, but we don't have any clues at all, this area is so big, and the terrain is also complicated. It's easier said than done.

Lin Hao nodded, and said: "Let's find someone to investigate the situation."

After Zhu Xiao arranged the tasks for them, he brought his men to continue following the route they had decided on. Not long later, he made everyone stop to rest, and called Zhou Wenze over to his side.

Zhou Wenze bowed towards Zhu Xiao, and said: "Elder Zhu, Lin Hao's mission, isn't it a bit too simple? Even though I didn't give him any clues, his abilities aren't small. Thinking about completing this mission, shouldn't be too difficult."

With a smile on his face that said: "Don't worry, the mission that I gave him this time, won't be completed that easily. Do you know who his opponent is?"

Zhou Wenze immediately said: "Could it be that those criminals have some sort of background?"

Zhu Xiao revealed a pleased smile on his face, and said: "That's right, a few days ago, the ghosts of the Yin Mountain Range offended the people from the Mad Knife Sect, so when the Mad Knife Sect was enraged, it directly took care of their lair. Out of the twelve people from the ghosts of the Yin Mountain Range, seven of them were killed on the spot, while the other five escaped on the spot.

"Therefore, Lin Hao's mission area is the area where the Five Devils of the Yin Mountain live. Elder, this move of yours is indeed brilliant!" Zhou Wenze was very obedient at this time and flattered Zhu Xiao.

Evidently, Zhu Xiao was enjoying Zhou Wenze's flattery, as he said proudly: "Moreover, other than the Five Devils of the Shadow Mountain, one of the one beside Lin Hao is one of us!"

"High, the Elder's skill is really high!" Zhou Wenze said.

"Alright, now is the time to talk about your problem. I know that Situ Zhangfeng had come to find you a few days ago to deal with you, so, I will give you this opportunity, because this place is close to where Lin Hao is going to carry out his mission, so you can bring your men and move around here, it's more convenient to keep an eye on Lin Hao's movements, if the situation changes, you can still make a move, but there's one thing you need to remember, no matter how you want to deal with Lin Hao, you better clean up the matter. Don't give us Southern Cold any trouble, understand?" Zhu Xiao warned Zhou Wenze.

Zhou Wenze immediately laughed: "Please rest assured elder, I know what to do."

Lin Hao, Zhang Feng and the two of them walked in the forest for an hour before they finally saw a village. It was noon, and all the families were preparing lunch with smoke rising from the chimneys.

The three of them walked into the village. A group of children, who were playing around, saw them and became afraid. They stopped and hid to the side, curiously looking at them.

However, one of them, a girl with jet-black eyes who was about six or seven years old, walked fearlessly in front of the three people. She spoke with a baby voice: "Three Big Brother s, are you looking for someone?"

Lin Hao's face revealed a slight smile, and said: "That's right, we are looking for your village chief."

When the girl heard this, her expression immediately became sorrowful and vigilant. She asked, "Why are you looking for the village head?"

Zhang Feng walked out from the side and said: "Little sister, don't worry. We are not bad people, and are here to help you take care of the bad people.

The girl nodded, and then said, "Alright, I believe you. Come with me."

After circling the village, the girl pushed open a fence door and shouted, "Mother, I'm back!"

It was obvious that they were busy preparing for lunch. Seeing their daughters suddenly bringing back three young men with extraordinary bearing, they knew that they were not simple, thus they immediately pulled the girl behind them and spoke to Lin Hao and the other two: "I wonder what business do you three have in our little mountain village?"

The young girl, who had been dragged behind by the woman to protect her, immediately said, "Mother, they are here to look for Father."

At this time, Lin Hao and the others finally realised that this girl was actually the Village Chief's daughter …

Lin Hao said with a smile on his face: "Please rest assured sister-in-law, we are disciples of Freezing Sky Sect. I heard that there are bandits running rampant in the vicinity recently, so we are here to help your village solve this problem."

Hearing this, the woman became excited and immediately invited the three into the room.
