Chapter 13243: The sense of security brought by the strong

"Is there a mission?" Ling Xiao keenly caught the unusualness in Hua Shan's words. His brows slightly frowned, and his tone was filled with some inquiry and concern.

He knew very well that in this world full of unknowns and dangers, the execution of every mission meant life and death, so he always paid special attention to the details of each mission.

"Yes, Mr. Qi seems to have had an accident." Hua Shan's expression became solemn, and she whispered with a hint of worry in her tone. His disappearance undoubtedly cast a shadow over the entire stronghold.

"They originally accepted a mission, but we couldn't get in touch with them later. Logically, the mission should have been completed in three days, but it's been seven days and there's still no news. Guard Wang asked us to go look for them."

"What about me?" There was a hint of doubt and concern in Ling Xiao's voice. He leaned forward slightly and looked directly at Hua Shan, as if waiting for her answer.

He knew in his heart that although he got along well with the people in the base, strictly speaking, he was not a member of the base. Therefore, he did not receive any notification about the mission arrangement this time, which made him curious and puzzled.

Hua Shan smiled bitterly when she heard this. She sighed softly and explained, "Strictly speaking, you are not a member of the base, so it is not easy to force you to do this mission.

But if you are willing to help, you will be rewarded after the task is completed. What do you plan to do?"

There was a hint of sincerity and anticipation in her tone, and it was obvious that she really hoped Ling Xiao could join them.

Ling Xiao heard this and a faint smile appeared on his lips. His eyes were firm and his tone was full of unquestionable determination: "Of course I will go.

Although Mr. Qi may be a bit arrogant and rude sometimes, he is still our companion after all, and we cannot just stand by and watch him die."

There was determination and loyalty in his eyes, as if at this moment, all grudges and prejudices were thrown behind him, leaving only deep concern and sense of responsibility for his companions.

Hua Shan smiled brightly upon hearing this. She patted Ling Xiao on the shoulder, with a tone of appreciation and relief:
"I was right about you. Brother Ling, you are not only extremely capable, but also very kind-hearted. Let's go and find Master Qi together."

Her voice was full of determination and confidence, as if as long as Ling Xiao was there, there were no difficulties that could not be overcome.

On the way, Hua Shan introduced Ling Xiao in detail about the companions who were traveling with her. Her voice was soft and clear, as if she was telling a familiar and intimate story.

"Besides Bai Sha and I, there are four others. They all fought against Green Robe outside the Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery before." Hua Shan's words were filled with memories and emotion. Obviously, that experience was of great significance to her.

She first pointed at a dark and fat man and said with a smile, "You can just call this fat guy Heipan." The man had dark skin, as if he had just rolled out of a pile of coal, but he was holding a huge chicken leg in his hand and was chewing it with relish.

Seeing Hua Shan introducing herself, he raised his head and smiled naively at Ling Xiao, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. Then he lowered his head and continued to gnaw on the chicken leg in his hand. He looked so naive that it made people laugh.

Then, Hua Shan pointed at a woman who looked somewhat similar to her, with a gentle light in her eyes: "This is my cousin Hua Guduo." Compared with Hua Shan, the woman was more delicate, with exquisite features, like a flower bud about to bloom.

Her skin was pale with a hint of pink, and she looked more delicate. At this moment, she was lowering her head slightly, with a bit of shyness and timidity on her face, as if she was a young girl who had just experienced the world, which made people feel pity for her.

"Brother Ling, I'm glad to be able to go on the mission with you." There was a hint of shyness and sincerity in Huaguduo's words. A faint blush appeared on her cheeks, like the rising morning glow, beautiful and moving.

Her eyes were sparkling with admiration and expectation for Ling Xiao. Obviously, after witnessing Ling Xiao's strength that day, she had a spontaneous admiration for him.

Huaguduo's shyness and sincerity made Ling Xiao feel warm. He smiled and nodded, expressing his gratitude and response to Huaguduo.

He knew that he was very lucky to be recognized and trusted by these companions.

"The remaining two are brothers, real brothers, one is only one year older than the other, they are Liu Hu and Liu Bao." Hua Shan added, her voice full of pride and kindness. Obviously, she also admired and respected these two brothers.

Ling Xiao followed Hua Shan's instructions and looked at the two brothers. As expected, they looked very similar. Although they were not twins, they were very similar in both appearance and figure.

There was a strong fighting spirit in their eyes, as if they were ready to face challenges and fight at any time. Without asking, Ling Xiao could also feel their perseverance and courage, and they must be experienced fighters.

Facing these reliable companions, Ling Xiao's heart was filled with gratitude and expectation.

He took a deep breath, then slowly stretched out his hands and saluted with a fist, as if to say hello. His movements were steady and powerful, as if he was expressing his determination and belief to his companions.

These people had all witnessed Ling Xiao's extraordinary methods with their own eyes, so naturally they had no doubts about his strength.

For them, Ling Xiao's joining is undoubtedly a great blessing, as if it has added an important chip to their already challenging task, which will play a vital role in the completion of their task.

Everyone's heart is filled with expectations and trust in Ling Xiao, as if as long as he is there, there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome.

After introducing her companions, Hua Shan did not stop. She hurried on her way while saying in a deep voice: "Wang Zhenshou asked us to go find Master Qi. He suspected that Master Qi and his men might have been in trouble.

For such matters, high-level experts in the Heavenly Realm generally won't act rashly. After all, their identities and status are there, and they have many concerns and restrictions.

Therefore, both Guard Wang and Deputy Guard Zhao cannot act rashly, otherwise it may cause unnecessary trouble and disputes. "

There was a hint of seriousness and worry in Hua Shan's words. It was obvious that she was very concerned and worried about this mission.

She knew very well that this mission not only concerned the safety of Master Qi, but also the stability and reputation of the entire stronghold. Therefore, she had to go all out to ensure the successful completion of the mission.

Ling Xiao and his companions all nodded in understanding after hearing this. (End of this chapter)
