Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 66: New Mission from the Teacher
"Zhang Yu, who told you I was in the training hall?"
Wu Zetian asked curiously after arriving at the residence. In his memories Zhang Yu was still in the cultivation tower, so there must have been someone who told him to come and help him.
"Tang Yue's. He waited on the first floor to look for me."
Hearing Tang Yue's name, Wu Zetian's countenance became tangled. He seemed doubtful.
"Is he really?"
"I don't have to lie for anything trivial. Tang Yue was extremely panicked when she came to the cultivation tower. If it opens because of it, I won't know you're in the training hall."
Wu Zetian pondered. Unexpectedly, out of the many people he thought of turned out to be Tang Yue.
But why does that girl care so much about him?
"What's the matter that you're involved with?" ask Zhang Yu.
Recalling the root of this matter made Wu Zetian annoyed. He said with anger. "The land couldn't get ahead of me when it got the room on the third floor. He got angry and threatened to look for me when he got out. But he lost while fighting one on one."
"I thought it was going to end. Who would have thought that this morning he had come with three of his acquaintances, one of whom was an inner disciple. I have fought with all my might but still cannot defeat them. Lucky you came in time and taught them a lesson."
Zhang Yu mustardly heard the end part. After leaving the cultivation tower he darted without any care in order to arrive at the training hall immediately. When he saw Wu Zetian being pressed he spontaneously came forward to help him.
"Well, you've come out of the cultivation tower but didn't go looking for your teacher. Have you forgotten you have a teacher?"
Zhang Yu was stunned to hear the voice in his head. He glanced at Wu Zetian at a glance then walked away from him.
"I just got out the teacher and there's a little problem. But it's all over, I'll see you after this."
"All right, I'm waiting now. Hurry up because there's one task for you."
The assignment?
Zhang Yun's forehead shriveled as the teacher said this. He wondered curiously what the task in question was. Is this a special mission for him? Or other tasks like cleaning the yard?
Zhang Yu immediately went to see the teacher to find out the task in question. He left Wu Zetian while turning his back. Katika Wu Zetian turned around and did not find Zhang Yu, her two eyebrows spontaneously fused together.
"Where did he go? Though I want to borrow a few hundred contribution points to purchase the healing potion." Wu Zetian searched behind the bathroom bulkhead but did not find it, under the bed was also not there. He stood by the bed while shaking his waist.
"Excession! Looks like he knows if I want to borrow his contribution points."
...
The residence of the academy's head.
"Teacher, what kind of assignment are you asking me to come here right away?"
Looking at such a serious teacher, Zhang Yu felt that this task was not trivial. But he still did not know what kind of task it was because until now the teacher was still silent and had a break in his chair.
A few seconds later Wang Chen sighed. "I have a mission for you."
"..."
Since Zhang Yu was silent Wang Chen resumed his sentence. "This is the special mission I chose for you. I thought you were the right person to do this mission."
Zhang Yu heard carefully what the teacher said to him. But there were still many questions in his mind.
"Teacher, what kind of mission should I do?"
Wang Chen got up from the chair, then handed a scroll to Zhang Yu. "Not difficult. You just need to return the Imperial Stamp and hand it over directly to His Majesty."
"It's not kidding. One more week you must leave, after the palace show the scroll to His Majesty and the mission is complete."
Sounds very easy. But Zhang Yu was sure it wasn't as easy as it sounded. This is related to the empire. Everything will get more complicated.
"I'll try, Master!"
"Good!"
Wang Chen sat back down after seeing Zhang Yu agree to carry out the mission. He closed his eyes while his hands waved with his mouth saying, "Now you can come back. You have seven days to prepare."
…
Seven days later.
Being given one week was indeed more than enough for Zhang Yu to prepare for his departure. He didn't need to carry much luggage, it was all in his storage ring.
Zhang Yu walked out of the room intending to go to his teacher's residence. He passed Wu Zetian who had also just returned from nowhere.
Hem..
"Zhang Yu, where are you going?" Wu Zetian asked while displaying a curious face.
"I'll go on a mission."
Zhang Yu's reply made Wu Zetian frown. "Mission? What mission? Why not take me?"
Wu Zetian asked the consecutive questions Zhang Yu could not answer all of his questions. "This is a special mission given to me. I also don't know why I should be the one to leave. But I'm sure I'll leave now."
Zhang Yu waved his hand and left Wu Zetian who was still pensive in the courtyard. He darted towards his teacher's residence to retrieve the imperial seal that was the object of his mission this time.
When he got there Zhang Yu not only received a box containing a stamp but also a golden plaque.
"You must hand the two objects over to the Emperor directly. Understood?"
"I understand Master."
This mission sounds easy and simple. But Wang Chen reminded about the danger level of the mission can be categorized as an S level mission.
"Teacher, you said the danger level of this mission is very high. Why not ask the core disciple to do it?"
Wang Chen smiled at Zhang Yu's question. "You want a reason? It was very simple. First you're my student. Second, isn't it very easy to guess if sending an inner disciple?"
"If sending an inner disciple, the enemy eyeing would be able to guess easily. So the best decision is to send a new face like you. I believe in your abilities anyway."
Zhang Yu looked at the box in his hand, then nodded his head. "If so I will carry out this task well."
Wang Chen smiled. "I'm counting on you, kid. You must arrive at the palace with those two things in your hand."
Once again Zhang Yu nodded.
"Alright, you can leave the academy after this." Wang Chen took out something from his spatial ring, handing it over to Zhang Yu.
"What is this, Master?" Zhang Yu narrowed his eyes in astonishment.
"Just take your initial reward. I'll give you the rest when you get back and successfully carry out the mission."
"I'm looking forward to the gift." After that Zhang Yu left to start his mission.
