Chapter 61 Submitting the Task

Inside the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect, Lin Mo said solemnly: "Wang Dabiao, you might not know this, but actually, I am an undercover agent!"

Wang Dabiao gripped his stomach and laughed incredulously: "Branch Master, stop joking. I've never seen a Cultivator who acts more like the Demonic Path than you."

Lin Mo spoke to himself: "Now the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect has been wiped out by the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect. If you want to survive, surrender immediately, and you can go to the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect to be an Outer Sect Disciple!"

A trace of panic appeared on Wang Dabiao's face, but he still didn't believe it: "Sect Master, stop trying to trick me. How could you possibly be an undercover agent?!"

Lin Mo gave Wang Dabiao a flick on the forehead: "Do you have a pig's brain? Didn't you understand? This daddy is an undercover agent, understand? I was specifically here to cause trouble. Now that my mission is complete, I'm going back to the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect, understand?"

Lin Mo looked dead serious, and at this moment, Wang Dabiao actually believed it just a little bit.

Just then, Shangguan Rouer, Senior Sister Leng Hanyue, and Senior Sister Huang Doudou came out together with Lin Mo.

Senior Sister Leng Hanyue no longer looked like a violent and silly Senior Sister, but instead said as gently as water: "Junior Brother, when are we returning to the Sect?"

Lin Mo grinned and said: "Wait a moment, I still need to arrange the remaining work:"

"Listen up, Wang Dabiao. If you want to survive, you can only turn over a new leaf. I am returning to the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect, and from now on, you will be responsible for managing the Spirit Beasts here. Every month I will distribute enlightenment pills to make these Spirit Beasts help mine and earn Spirit Stones."

Wang Dabiao nodded hastily: "Branch Master, as long as I can survive, I will listen to you in everything!"

Now Wang Dabiao completely believed that Lin Mo really was an undercover agent, but no matter how hard he tried to think, he couldn't figure out how Lin Mo managed to act even more like the Demonic Path than him, a Demonic Path member.

Lin Mo glared and cursed: "I think you don't want to live anymore. From now on, start calling me Elder! I am an Outer Sect Elder of the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect, not a Demonic Path Cultivator, understand?!!"

Wang Dabiao nodded lewdly: "Branch Master, understood."

Lin Mo patted his shoulder and said: "Young man, work hard. I'm optimistic about you. Your heart isn't dark enough, nor is it ruthless enough. At a glance, I can tell you're good material for the Righteous Path."

Wang Dabiao stood in place with a face full of question marks. Could it be that he really chose the wrong Sect? Was he not suited for the Demonic Path? Was the Righteous Path his true home?

From then on, Wang Dabiao decided to stop practicing his sinister laughter every day and instead help old ladies cross the street three times a day.

He wanted to properly experience the happiness of a Righteous Path Disciple before deciding his future destination. Besides, Wang Dabiao had heard that, unlike the Demonic Path, the Righteous Path never delayed its Disciples' stipends.

Leaving the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect's branch temporarily in Wang Dabiao's hands gave Lin Mo peace of mind.

This fellow was cowardly and lacked grand ambitions, so he definitely wouldn't dare to do anything out of line.

Moreover, the enlightenment pills would be distributed to the Spirit Beasts on time by the Sect, and the Spirit Stones earned by the Spirit Beasts would also be handed over to the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect.

Wang Dabiao wouldn't have the opportunity to take bribes or graft either. When the time came, calling another Outer Sect Disciple over from the Sect would also allow for better supervision of Wang Dabiao.

Returning to the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect's Task Pavilion, the Elder in charge of turning in missions stared at Lin Mo and the others for a full minute before slowly saying: "So, this is what happened: after you went undercover in the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect, not only did you destroy the entire Demonic Sect, but now you've even hatched the concept of Spirit Beasts working part-time for the Sect?"

Lin Mo nodded: "Although it's a bit hard to believe, the facts are indeed like this. If you don't believe it, you can also go find Second Elder Jiu Jiu and Sixth Elder Tao Yaoye to verify. Both of them put in a great deal of effort in destroying the Demonic Sect."

The Task Pavilion Elder just felt that the whole process was simply too magical, but he still believed it. No one in the entire Jade Maiden Immortal Sect dared to falsely report a mission.

Aside from being punished by the Law Enforcement Peak, they would also be expelled from the Sect, which was pretty much equivalent to being fired first and then thrown into prison.

As a Sect Disciple, Lin Mo naturally wouldn't do such a stupid thing. However, compared to this, what gave the Task Pavilion Elder an even bigger headache was how to calculate their contribution points.

This mission was originally supposed to be one thousand contribution points per person, but now, the completion degree of the mission was clearly far beyond that.

Rubbing his temples with a headache, the Elder said: "You guys go back first. The mission will be recorded as turned in for now, but we still need to discuss the specific contribution points."

The few of them nodded with smiles on their faces. Being able to obtain more contribution points was definitely a good thing for them.

However, Lin Mo was a bit melancholic instead, because after all, he still needed contribution points to exchange for ancient texts.

As for how to specifically treat Tang Waner's Calamity Poison Body, he currently didn't have the slightest clue.

Stepping out of the Task Pavilion, Lin Mo hesitated for a moment and said: "Senior Sister Huang Doudou, Senior Sister Shangguan Rouer, can the two of you lend me some contribution points?"

Senior Sister Leng Hanyue said aggrievedly: "Why didn't you ask me to borrow contribution points? Do you look down on me?"

Lin Mo lowered his head to look at Senior Sister Leng Hanyue: "Do you have any?"

Senior Sister Leng Hanyue was righteous and confident: "No!"

Lin Mo glared at her: "You just wait for me!"

Now that they had returned to the Sect, dealing with this little lass was as easy as pie.

While executing missions recently, Lin Mo found that Senior Sister Leng Hanyue had gotten a bit cocky. He had to let her witness his big baby and taste the power of her Lifebound Treasure.

Senior Sister Leng Hanyue smiled provokingly. Although Lin Mo's cultivation had already surpassed hers, she still wasn't afraid in the slightest.

Shangguan Rouer acted as a cute and fluffy peacemaker: "You two stop arguing. Junior Brother, I still have a few contribution points here. How many do you need?"

The ancient texts about the Calamity Poison Body in the Scripture Pavilion required 1,000 contribution points, and Lin Mo also wanted to exchange for some other ancient texts.

Hesitating for a moment, he said: "I want to exchange for 1,500 contribution points. Senior Sister, do you have them?"

Shangguan Rouer waved her little hand: "Alright, I've transferred them to you."

Lin Mo looked at Shangguan Rouer in speechless surprise, not expecting the other party to be a little rich woman.

"Senior Sister, I'll return them to you once the rewarded contribution points arrive in a few days."

"Relax, just use them first. I'm going back to my Immortal Cave to rest. Having been undercover for so long, and with the environment inside the Demonic Sect being so poor, I'm going back to have a good sleep."

Lin Mo waved goodbye to the others and returned to the familiar Waste Pill Room, where Wang Dali was still bustling about covered in sweat.

Feeling playful, Lin Mo asked: "Wang Dali, do you have a brother named Wang Dabiao?"

Wang Dali replied blankly: "No, there's only me as an only son in my family."

He originally thought that because their names were similar, there might be some unspeakable relationship between the two.

He waved his hand, tossed three Spirit Stones to Wang Dali, and said: "You've worked hard recently. Go back, the Waste Pill Room doesn't need you to watch over it anymore."

Wang Dali breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a wave of relief inside. He could finally leave this place.

"Many thanks, Elder. I'll head back first."

Wang Dali's two small legs scrambled extremely fast, afraid that Lin Mo would regret it.
