Chapter 352: Mission

Lin Fan wasn't about to see his income stream dry up.

If he was getting an even split from the Ho Family's business, he was not going to sit idle when someone was going to destroy it.

Ho Fu stopped and glanced over at the other members of the Ho Family.

They put down their heads and said nothing.

"Eh... I think we can handle it ourselves..." One of the family members finally said something.

Lin Fan shook his head, and said, "Ho Ming has helped me a lot, don't worry that I would think of the Ho Family as useless and abandon the Ho Family."

He said and gave Ho Ming, who was sitting beside him, a pat on his shoulder.

Ho Fu drew deep into his smoking pipe and puffed out a huge mouthful of smoke.

"Since you say so.

"Lord Marquis of Zhen Nan has organized a sizeable rebel force in the southern province.

"They needed resources and our partners the Huang Family and Lee Family are captured and stuck there.

"My men have gotten the information to their whereabouts, but it might be tough to get them out."

Ho Fu took out a folded map from his clothes and handed it over to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan looked at the map and saw that there was an 'X' marked behind an army campsite with a huge mountain at the back.

The only way was to get through the army campsite.

The main forces of the Lord Marquis of Zhen Nan were a hundred kilometers away so they would have to go in and leave quickly.

"The Huang and Lee families are in the process of preparing the gold bars they demanded in exchange for the return of the family members. They will set off five days later," Ho Fu said.

Lin Fan thought for a moment and said, "I can hide among those handing over the gold ransom. But I wouldn't be doing it alone."

He thought about getting help from Governor Lu who was helping the Left Prime Minister now.

And through him, he could get General Lu's men to help.

After all, they would have to quell down the rebels sooner or later.

"That would be great! The magistrate had refused to help or lift even a finger," Ho Fu said and took another puff.

After they finished the meal, Lin Fan and Ho Ming bid farewell.

They decided to return to Qing Feng Sect first.

Lin Fan wrote a letter to Governor Lu and asked him to put up a mission request to Qing Feng Sect.

This way, he could have an excuse to leave Qing Feng Sect and also earn rewards from it.

Killing three birds with one stone.

Governor Lu was fast, and the mission request came in the very next day.

...

Mission Hall.

Lin Fan and Ho Ming entered the bustling mission hall, and it went silent.

New disciples didn't know, and they looked at their seniors with a perturbed look.

"Who are they?"

"Why is everyone quiet?"

"They look like juniors like us? What's the deal?"

They couldn't make out why everyone was suddenly quiet.

One of the senior disciples shook his head and said, "I was like you..."

He then started to recite what Lin Fan and Ho Ming had achieved in a short period of time.

First the brows of the young disciples arched.

But as they heard what Lin Fan and Ho Ming went on to achieve, their eyes opened wide.

Lastly, when they heard about the duel with the Lady Saint and Dark Lord, their mouths were wide open.

They calmed themselves and then turned and looked at Lin Fan and Ho Ming with a different pair of eyes.

Some had a moment of doubt, but it cleared when they saw the strongest among the senior disciples gave way to Lin Fan and Ho Ming when they went up to the mission board.

"Here it is." Ho Ming saw the wooden slab on the board that was about a mission to escort the Huang and Lee Family to the southern province.

He took it and they walked over to the counter.

The disciple handling the mission registration stood up and bowed.

"Senior martial brothers, it's been a long time. Let me see..." Ho Ming handed over the wooden slab and the disciple got to work.

The mission was of the highest difficulty and with a reward of three hundred contribution points and a hundred tael of gold.

The Huang and Lee families were willing to pay to get their relatives back safely.

Lin Fan and Ho Ming imprinted their palms on the wooden slab.

It glowed and the mission was allocated to them.

"Wish you a successful mission." The disciple bowed and handed the wooden slab over to Ho Ming.

Lin Fan and Ho Ming nodded and walked out of the Mission Hall.

"Did you hear that?"

"Yeah, the highest level of difficulty for a mission."

"Wow. Imagine three hundred contribution points and a hundred tael of gold..."

The new disciples were wowed by the difficulty of the mission and the lavish reward.

If only they could be like Lin Fan or Ho Ming.

They cursed themselves at their choice of not joining the Physique Peak.

It was too late for them, but it might not be so for their brothers, sisters and friends waiting to join Qing Feng Sect.

They went back and wrote letters to their brothers, sisters and friends about what they learned today.

The next admission was near, and they mustn't miss this opportunity.

...

With the excuse of going out on a mission, Zhang Yi Nian had no choice but to agree to Lin Fan leaving.

He had plans for his cultivations but going out on missions earning precious resources for the sect was important for the survival of Qing Feng Sect too.

He wanted to go with Lin Fan, but Zhang Xi wasn't too pleased with having to deal with matters for the Physique Peak again.

The Sword Peak had more than enough disciples so Ho Ming going on a mission wasn't as disruptive to the operations of the Sword Peak.

After they prepared essential items, Lin Fan and Ho Ming quickly set off for the mission.
