EBE Chapter 182 Heading to Burma
Chapter 182 Heading to Burma
There is only one month left before heading to the outer realms, but for Song Wanning and Ye Chuxue, completing this mission seems to be more than enough.
The two exchanged a glance, understanding each other perfectly, and then without hesitation tore the piece of paper containing the mission information off the bulletin board.
"We've decided to take on this mission!" Song Wanning's clear and melodious voice rang out, her tone firm and powerful.
The staff member behind the counter took the form, but when her eyes swept over the task difficulty level marked on it, she paused slightly, then looked up, a hint of doubt in her eyes, and hesitantly asked, "Are you really sure you want to take this task...?"
However, before he could finish speaking, when he saw the face of the person in front of him, he was instantly dumbfounded, almost dropping his jaw to the ground in shock, and stammered, "Princess...Princess!"
This sudden exclamation was like a thunderclap, shattering the previously peaceful atmosphere and instantly attracting the attention of many people around.
People cast curious glances, and when they saw that the person standing in front of the counter was none other than Song Wanning, they were all so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths.
"Isn't that Song Wanning? I haven't seen her for a whole year. I never expected to see her at school today!"
"Yes, ever since she participated in that world-renowned global competition, she has vanished without a trace."
"Hey, who's that girl with white hair? She's so pretty."
"Oh, that's Ye Chuxue, Song Wanning's personal maid."
For a while, all kinds of discussions were heard one after another.
Despite the attention and amazement of the crowd, Song Wanning remained calm and composed.
She turned her head slightly, whispered something to Ye Chuxue beside her, and then looked at the counter staff again, saying in a gentle but unquestionable tone, "Our choice to accept a mission is our own and has nothing to do with anyone else."
Upon hearing this, the counter staff snapped out of their daze, quickly concealing their astonishment, and nodded respectfully. They then began to process the necessary paperwork for accepting the mission in a swift and orderly manner.
Just then, a commotion suddenly broke out in the crowd.
People automatically made way for him, and a tall, handsome man, like a bright star, slowly walked out from the crowd.
This man had striking eyebrows and bright eyes, an extraordinary air about him, and an irresistible charm.
When his gaze fell upon Song Wanning, his previously indifferent face instantly lit up with surprise, as if he had seen the most precious treasure in the world.
"Wan Ning, it really is you! I've been searching for you desperately all these days."
Lu Zixuan said excitedly, his voice filled with deep affection and longing.
However, faced with his passionate expression of emotion, Song Wanning's expression changed slightly, and a hint of annoyance and helplessness flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Lu Zixuan, I've made myself very clear. I don't want anything to do with you anymore. Please don't bother me again."
Song Wanning responded firmly.
It turns out that Lu Zixuan had once pursued Song Wanning intensely, but was ultimately rejected without hesitation.
Even so, he was still unwilling to give up. Instead, he often pestered Song Wanning and did many things that bothered her.
Lu Zixuan didn't seem to take Song Wanning's words to heart, and still took a step forward, trying to close the distance between them.
"Wan Ning, please give me another chance. This mission is fraught with danger, and only I can truly protect you."
He spoke with conviction, his eyes full of sincerity.
Just then, Ye Chuxue, who had been silent all along, finally couldn't help but speak up.
She looked coldly at Lu Zixuan and said without any politeness, "No need! I will naturally protect Her Highness the Princess; you have no need to meddle in my business."
Upon hearing Ye Chuxue's words, Lu Zixuan felt utterly humiliated, and a surge of anger welled up within him.
He stared wide-eyed at Ye Chuxue, on the verge of exploding.
Just then, the staff member behind the counter announced loudly, "This mission has been successfully accepted."
This sudden announcement forced Lu Zixuan to temporarily suppress his anger, while Ye Chuxue took the opportunity to pull Song Wanning away.
Before leaving, Ye Chuxue glanced back at Lu Zixuan, a contemptuous sneer playing on her lips: "Hmph, just a mere Divine Venerable Realm cultivator. You'd better take care of yourself first!"
Having said that, she ignored Lu Zixuan, who was standing there dumbfounded, and with a gentle wave of her arm, a powerful spiritual force surged out, enveloping her and Song Wanning's bodies.
Immediately afterward, under the astonished gazes of the crowd, the two of them soared into the air like two light birds and sped away into the distance.
"God, God Emperor..."
"I never expected Ye Chuxue to have already reached the God Emperor realm. Back then, she was only at the God Venerable realm. It's been less than a year!"
Lu Zixuan stared in disbelief at the scene, and after a while, he slunk away.
After the two flew into the sky, Ye Chuxue released her Nine Yang Heavenly Dragon. With a dragon's roar, the Nine Yang Heavenly Dragon carried the two of them south.
In less than half an hour, the two arrived at the border area.
The giant dragon slowly descended, eventually transforming into a small dragon that perched on Ye Chuxue's shoulder.
Ye Chuxue patted the head of the Nine Yang Heavenly Dragon, and then walked towards the border checkpoint with Song Wanning.
Upon arriving at the checkpoint, Song Wanning handed over the mission list. After the soldier accepted the mission, he allowed the two of them to pass.
"Looks like a college student, to take on such a difficult task."
The soldier said, watching the two men walk away.
“Don’t underestimate those two,” another soldier said.
“Look at that white-haired girl, the little dragon perched on her shoulder.”
The soldier looked in the direction his comrade had indicated and saw the Nine Yang Heavenly Dragon perched on Ye Chuxue's shoulder, its tail swaying gently.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" the soldier asked, somewhat puzzled.
“That should be the girl’s martial spirit,” his companion affirmed.
"What? Martial Soul manifests? A God Emperor?"
……
After a few minutes' walk, Ye Chuxue and Song Wanning arrived at the Great Xia embassy, which was also the meeting point for their contact person.
Upon arriving near the meeting point, the two noticed a woman standing not far away.
The woman was wearing a combat uniform with a pistol tucked into her waistband.
After the three met, Song Wanning took out the task list.
"Are you here on a mission?" the woman asked.
The two nodded, and the woman smiled: "Don't be nervous, I'm Xia Wei, you could say I'm your senior, I'm also a student at Shenlong University."
