108: Chapter 108: Obtain a Temporary Mission – Slay the Chosen One

While Cao Yang and Empress Mingyue were sightseeing on a small island belonging to a mid-tier power, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

"Ding! Detected that the Child of Fortune, Wang Ning, has developed immense resentment toward the host. Issuing a temporary mission: Slay the Child of Fortune, Wang Ning. Reward: 40,000 check-in opportunities."

Hmm?

Hearing the System's voice, Cao Yang was slightly taken aback, and then a smile appeared on his face.

There's actually such a good thing?

You know, forty thousand check-in opportunities is no small amount!

Cao Yang was secretly delighted. He looked at Empress Mingyue and asked, "Yueer, do you know what Wang Ning looks like?"

Upon hearing this, Empress Mingyue nodded and replied, "I do, Brother Cao. Wang Ning looks very much like Prince Jin."

With a faint smile on his face, Cao Yang nodded in agreement. He then turned his gaze toward Empress Mingyue by his side and asked gently, "Yueer, I don't know anything about Prince Jin either. Can you describe what he looks like to me?"

"Of course, Brother Cao," Empress Mingyue replied softly, while extending a porcelain-white finger and lightly tapping the air.

Instantly, a lifelike portrait of Wang Ning appeared in mid-air.

Cao Yang gazed at the portrait, carefully memorizing Wang Ning's appearance. Immediately after, he quickly released his Divine Sense and began a carpet search across the entire island.

Before long, Cao Yang slowly opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth curling up into a confident smile. "Found him!" With that, he took Empress Mingyue's hand, and together they sped toward the depths of the island.

Meanwhile, inside an Immortal Cave within the island, Wang Ning was sitting quietly, attempting to calm the turmoil in his heart through meditation and cultivation.

However, the chaotic thoughts in his heart were like waves in a storm, making it impossible for him to concentrate.

This was because all of his relatives had been brutally murdered by a mysterious powerhouse, leaving him alone to struggle for survival.

He had once sought help from his Master, but his Master told him that even he was no match for that mysterious powerhouse, advising him to Cultivate well and seek revenge only when he became stronger in the future.

He even said things like, "For a gentleman, a billion years is not too late for revenge."

Although he understood that his Master's words made sense, he could never let it go in the depths of his heart.

Whenever he closed his eyes, the tragic sight of his family covered in blood would surface in his mind, causing him immense pain and anger.

He had sworn a solemn oath to personally kill his enemy and avenge his family. Only then could he continue living with a clear conscience.

From that moment on, his heart gradually calmed down, allowing him to enter secluded cultivation normally.

However, for some reason, he remained restless today, completely unable to enter a state of tranquil meditation.

Just as Wang Ning was feeling bewildered, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended from the sky, like an invisible mountain pressing down on him, rendering him unable to move an inch.

It wasn't just him; the entire island was enveloped by this pressure, and everyone felt an unprecedented sense of fear and awe.

At that moment, Cao Yang raised his finger and lightly pointed. A flash of light streaked across, instantly piercing through Wang Ning's head and directly obliterating his true spirit.

Wang Ning's eyes widened, a look of disbelief on his face, but he had no time to react before his life came to an end.

When Wang Ning's true spirit was obliterated, the Heavenly Dao seemed to sense something unusual. It only dared to reveal a tiny glimpse of itself in the distant sky before quickly shrinking back, not daring to make another move.

Cao Yang expressionlessly waved his hand, collecting the treasures from Wang Ning's body.

After finishing this, he didn't say another word. Instead, he took Empress Mingyue's hand, and the two of them vanished from the spot.

With Cao Yang's departure, the atmosphere on Blade God Island gradually returned to tranquility.

However, at that moment, a strange occurrence took place within the Blade God Sect—several Sect Disciples who were close to Wang Ning died inexplicably, including even Wang Ning's Revered Master.

No one knew the reason, and no one could explain any of it...
