She comprehended the situation unfolding before her.

She paid no attention to Di Hongyun’s attempt at flattery.

Curiously, she inquired, “Where can I find Senior Brother Zhengyang and Senior Brother Xinde?”

Di Hongyun had been full of enthusiasm, but upon hearing Gu Chaoyan’s words, his spirits dampened.

He gestured towards a specific direction and said, “They are over there.”

Though Di Hongyun felt a tinge of bitterness, he chose to accept the situation.

A small smile played on Gu Chaoyan’s lips.

Di Hongyun was known for his cheerful demeanor, especially when around his family. However, in the company of people he didn’t approve of, he reverted to his former annoying self.

Yet, he treated her as if she were one of his own.

Moreover, due to the incident involving the disciples of the Grand Unity Sect, he harbored a sense of gratitude towards her. Despite struggling to find the right way to express it, his actions now spoke volumes about his feelings. However…

Gu Chaoyan was well aware of Di Hongyun’s personality, so she chose to overlook his behavior.

In her mind, Di Hongyun and the others were genuinely good people.

Yet, Gu Chaoyan hadn’t yet contemplated how she would spend her time with them. For her, this mission was merely an obligation she had to fulfill.

Expressionless, she made her way towards Fu Xinde.

Both Fu Xinde and Lv Zhengyang greeted her with smiles.

“Junior Sister, we’re delighted that you’ve agreed to join us on this mission.

Hongyun mentioned that only he could persuade you, and he was right,” Lv Zhengyang remarked, while Fu Xinde simply smiled.

Lv Zhengyang willingly let go of his initial plan to search for the Green Sun Grass alongside his junior sister. He had observed her exceptional abilities in dealing with mutated beasts and was confident in her capabilities.

This team felt more dependable compared to his previous ones.

“He managed to convince me. Now, could you brief me on the mission details?” Gu Chaoyan didn’t waste much time on trivial matters, proceeding to inquire directly about the mission at hand.

Lv Zhengyang handed over the authority token and scroll to Gu Chaoyan.

Carefully, Gu Chaoyan examined the Green Sun Grass and studied the map provided.

Soon enough, she grasped the situation.

The Green Sun Grass was situated on a cliff, and it belonged to a Paragon and Martial Immortal demonic beast. This special herb served as the beast’s primary food source. Unfortunately, a few days ago, the demonic beast experienced Qi Deviation, causing a cultivation reversal that led to its demise.

Over time, the Green Sun Grass continued to grow, and now there were approximately two mu of it available.

Apart from its cliff-top location, another reason for its significance was that various sects had become drawn to it. Supreme Sect was just one of those interested parties.

In addition to Lv Zhengyang’s team, two other teams had accepted the mission. However, these two teams had set out the day before upon receiving the authority tokens. Worried about potential delays and encountering competitors from other sects, they seemed to have lost their advantage, leading to their failure.

It was evident why Di Hongyun took the credit in the end.

“Then let’s proceed,” Gu Chaoyan stated, acknowledging that the mission might not be straightforward. However, she knew they needed to reach their destination as swiftly as possible.

“Okay,” Lv Zhengyang agreed.

With their course of action determined, they set out on their journey..
