章 15: New Mission
Adonis's brain was rebooting itself after hearing those words. He didn't know what to do after hearing what Lena said.
Lena saw his reaction and began to laugh.
"Hehehahaha! I'm just teasing you, Adonis."
Adonis took a few seconds to compute those words, and never had he ever felt a greater sense of relief, he thought that his first time will be taken today, so he was not prepared for that.
But at the same time, he felt blue balled and his lower head had never been more disappointed.
'Don't worry little buddy, we'll get there one day.'
After taking a few seconds and backing away from Lena, Adonis was prepared to leave and finally rest after a long day.
"Wait for a second!"
Adonis turned back around and Lena through a green slip at him. Adonis was confused about what this was.
"That is a pass for you to enter the Inner court whenever you want, despite you being an outer core disciple."
"Why are you giving this to me?"
"You see, there is this mission that I and a few other disciples are going to do. So I was wondering if want to come along?"
"Why me? I mean, I'm not even at the Refinement Stage yet."
"Well, I just have a good feeling that you are the missing piece we're looking for."
Adonis felt complimented that Lena thought highly of him and the mission was peaking his interest.
"Ok, what is the mission?"
The mission Lena is going to do is to get the 'Horizon Flower' from the 'Beast land cave'. This mission was notoriously difficult, not due to the beasts mostly, but because of the Sky Mountain Sect having the same mission and competing over the flower.
In the continent they live on, there is an empire that oversees everything and they split the continent into 15 areas. The area where Adonis is currently is called 'Area 13', otherwise known as "Where Heaven and Earth Meet" Within this area, is a large grassland and large mountains that reach the sky. Few cities exist in the area, with quite a few noble families situated, and there are two sects, the Green Valley Sect, and the Sky Mountain Sect. Due to them being the only sects in the area, there is competition between them to see which one is the better sect, and they have fought over many things, the 'Horizon Flower' being one of them.
Lena explained the mission to Adonis.
"As for the team, it contains me, two other inner core disciples, a core disciple, and of course, you, if you accept."
Adonis felt hesitant that he could be of any use to the team, but at the same time, he felt excited to try his hand at such a mission. Not only that, he heard the mission paid the person who got the flower, 10,000 Magic Crystals, and those who contributed 5,000 Magic Crystals.
Adonis felt that he couldn't pass on such a chance.
"Ok, I'm in!"
"Great! Then meet us in the inner mission hall in a week, when the sun is directly overhead, got it?"
"Yeah, I promise I won't disappoint!"
"I hope you don't, alright; good night, Adonis~."
Lena then disappeared as if she was the wind. Adonis was yet again, surprised by her speed but went back to his dorm and threw himself on his bed after the long day he went through.
"Finally, I missed you my bed. *yawn*"
Adonis fell asleep quickly.

Within the Sect Leader's temple,
"Elder Maron...it is the middle of the night. Why did you call a meeting?"
"Listen, you all need to hear this."
The 10 elders were closely listening to what Elder Maron had to say.
"Adonis Lock has awakened his talent."
The silence was the only sound the temple could make.
A few seconds passed with nothing being said until,
"You-you're joking, right?"
An old elder said.
"No, I saw Adonis's cultivation with my own eyes, he's a 5-spark."
Once again, silence fell.
"Are you sure you're okay, Elder Maron?"
"I am completely fine. Why are you all staring at me like I'm crazy?"
"Well, you just said a pretty crazy thing you know."
"Ok, I get that, but you can look for yourself, Adonis Lock is a 5-spark!"
"The trash of the Lock family is a 5-spark so suddenly?"
"Yes, I'm just as surprised as you are."
"This sounds too unbelievable, little boy."
"What is the point of me lying about this?"
"Who knows, maybe you want attention. After all, your generation seeks nothing but that."
"You think I'm doing this for attention, are you turning senile?!"
"Oi! Watch your mouth, you little-"
"Let's all calm down now."
The voice that just spoke now was the sect leader, a beautiful woman who looks to be in there late 20s with purple hair and fabulous black and golden robes. The only thing "off" about her is that her pupils were a vertical slit.
"We will continue the meeting in the afternoon, and Elder Maron, bring Adonis Lock here so we can confirm what you are saying."
"Gladly, Sect Leader."
All Elders bowed to the Sect Leader and went back to their quarters to take the rest of the night off.
