Chapter 378: Weird Young Girl

Shaking his head as he threw those thoughts aside, Xuan Hao soon reached the place Bai Ning was currently staying and was not surprised in the slightest after noticing a certain elder from the blacksmithing hall.

Elder Teng Huo was that certain elder and after having been refused by Xuan Hao in his attempt to take Bai Ning to the blacksmithing hall, he had ended up convincing Xuan Hao to allow him to visit Bai Ning every now and then to both help him improve his blacksmithing skills and at the same time have someone to talk about blacksmithing with.

Overall, Xuan Hao wanted to refuse, but Bai Ning had already expressed his desire to spend more of his time at the blacksmithing hall just so he could have someone to talk with... So, thinking that he might spend some more time in the pavilion, Xuan Hao had allowed Teng Huo to come over once a week.

At the very least, Teng Huo seemed to have given up trying to take away Bai Ning after being allowed to come visit once a week...

Knowing that Bai Ning was likely busy talking about something blacksmithing related at the moment, Xuan Hao decided to not disturb him and instead decided to leave his pavilion before making his way down his mountain.

...

The scene below the mountain was a completely different compared to his mountain, as disciples and elders could constantly be seen going from one place to another.

Even if it was the inner part of the Flying Sword Sect, the place was still extremely busy due to most of the most frequented buildings were located there.

From the Mission Hall where the disciples took on different missions from the sect to gain experience and earn a few spirit stone, to the Artifact Hall where the marketplace set up by the disciples was located.

Not to mention the fact that things had gotten busy lately, with Elder Song stabilizing the territory of the Flying Sword Sect. Many new missions had appeared in the mission hall with extremely good rewards earlier in the day.

Xuan Hao knew that the new missions were put up by Elder Song, he had waited until after the new elders had been appointed and Xuan Hao along with the other three Core Elders finished their last lectures before putting them up.

The disciples who had refused to go out to adventure during the time Xuan Hao and the other three were teaching personally over the past few months, would suddenly find a sea of new missions with good rewards waiting there for them.

"I wonder what the missions were about..." Muttering this to himself, Xuan Hao suddenly felt a bit curious as he decided to hide his presence before following the stream of disciples towards the Mission Hall.

The way there took longer than normal due to the large amount of people rushing over towards the Mission Hall, but this did not stop Xuan Hao. Soon finding himself in front of the Mission Hall that had a constant stream of people going in and out.

If not for the fact that he had stood a bit to the side, Xuan Hao was certain that he would end up being dragged along with the crowd into the Mission Hall. At least if he was just a normal disciple...

"Ah! I was going to the Artifact Hall! I'm not going to the Mission Hall! Please stop for a mome-"

As if to affirm his thoughts, Xuan Hao watched a disciple at the Qi Condensation Realm try to pass through the stream of disciples only to end up getting swept away by it. Soon being pushed directly into the Mission Hall against his will...

"..."

The sight was quite funny as the disciple soon came out through another entrance along with a crowd of disciples leaving the Mission Hall, looking quite dishevelled as he soon turned to leave in a hurry.

"Are you here to take on one of the new missions as well? Grandpa Song said he put up mission for everyone! Even the elders should be able to find a mission for them!" Just as Xuan Hao was about to enter the Mission Hall, the voice of a young girl sounded out behind him.

"Are you talking to me...?"

"Yes? Who else would I be asking?"

Hearing the young girl, Xuan Hao turned around and looked over towards the young girl standing just behind him with a somewhat bewildered look on his face.

Given the fact that he had used his domain to hide himself, there should be no way for anyone to see him unless they had also reached the Domain Lord Realm or were stronger than him...

Looking over the young girl, Xuan Hao quickly examined every inch of her body within a split before an even more confused expression appeared on his face.

There was nothing extraordinary about the young girl other than the fact that she was around the Early stages of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Instead, what caught his attention was the fact that her body was way weaker than what someone at the Qi Condensation should have, to the point that even a normal person with no cultivation would have a stronger body than her!

"Ah, is it perhaps because there are so many people here...? It would indeed be hard for someone to know that you are speaking to them when you have never talked to them before..." Nodding her head as she said this, the young girl soon looked back up at Xuan Hao who had already managed to calm down as he was looking at her curiously.

"So, are you here to take on a mission as well?" Asking the question, she had asked at the start, the young girl looked up at Xuan Hao as she waited for him to answer.

"As well? Are you perhaps here to take on a mission?" Not answering her question, Xuan Hao instead picked up the last part of what the young girl said as he asked her with a curious expression on his face.

"Ah! Yes, I am! How did you know!? Grandpa Song said I shouldn't because it's dangerous... But I really want to try and do a mission! If you are going to do a mission, we can go together! Being two people is safer and I'm sure Grandpa Song won't punish me too badly when I get back if I'm doing it with someone else!"

"Sure, we can take on one of the easier missions and be back within an hour or two."

"Great! Let's go!"

Listening as the young girl, Xuan Hao felt his curiosity towards her increase even further. Agreeing to her request without much thought.

Other than finding out if the Grandpa Song mentioned by the young girl was Elder Song and her high cultivation realm for her age, Xuan Hao was interested in finding out about her weird ability to see him even when he hid with his domain...
