Roleplay As Cultivator
10: First Quest
“Hmm, Huang Qingyue West
“Beautiful name for a beautiful girl”
Tian Jie nodded - nodding as if agreeing with the name the girl in front of him had.
He then sat on the tree root and leaned on his trunk. While patting - patting the root beside him as if hinting Huang Qingyue to sit beside him.
“Now beautiful girl, can you tell me why you are in this forest ?”
“With your cultivation level still a spiritual cultivator, you are like trying to kill yourself here”
‘ a month ago I was also still a spiritual cultivator anyway, but I have a system’
Huang Qingyue was a little hesitant to sit beside Tian Jie, her face flushed red in embarrassment with seductive words that kept being directed at her. As a woman of course being called beautiful made her happy, but somehow Tian Jie's way of teasing her was so effective it made her blush in embarrassment. He who had often heard many men from the sect took out poems to attract his attention, but only this time faced a direct attack without further ado as Tian Jie had done.
Huang Qingyue finally ventured to sit beside Tian Jie. He looked at Tian Jie for a while then turned to look ahead as he was still a little embarrassed.
“Um, Mr Tian, can you not call me with a beautiful girl call ?”
“That's a little ..”
He was a little uneasy sitting beside Tian Jie.
Tian Jie who saw Huang Qingyue's motion laughed in a giggle.
“ha haha hahaha ha”
“Are you ashamed ? me ku”
“Have you never been seduced by men in your sect?”
“I guess you've been teased a lot and won't give a reaction to myself”
Tian Jie wiped his tears from laughing.
Huang Qingyue could only duck and endure her embarrassment. His face looks very red.
“...”
“so, you want to be called by how ?”
“Q-qingyue only !”
“Alright if that's what you want Qingyue”
“Now can you describe your current condition !”
Huang Qingyue was silent for a moment.His flushed face began to be replaced with a serious look. He slightly squeezed the cloth on his thigh. His eyes looking down looked a little glazed.
“I'm here to find my mother a cure from a certain herbal plant”
“Together with my sister from the sect, I searched this forest for ten days”
“when I found the plant, we were confronted by a group of lizard men”
“because outnumbered we tried to escape and in the end we separated”
“aku's been chased for three days”
“I don't even know the condition of my separated sister it”
“More I don't know if my mom still has time to survive”
“i can only hope ..”
Then he became silent. Huang Qingyue's body and mind were already tired. His struggle in the forest was long enough, but he did not want to give up looking for a cure for his mother.
Tian Jie who heard Huang Qingyue's story felt pity .
‘whether he tells the truth or not, I may not know’ yet
‘but looking at his current condition, it looks like he is telling the truth’
“does your mother have a deadly disease ?” Tian Jie's
“mm mm, he was exposed to natural toxins from rare plants” Huang Qingyue said as she shook her head.
“My father died a year ago and left his trading company to my mother”
“Because of that my mother is looking for a cure to accelerate her cultivation and provide support to my family's trading company”
“But the medicine my mother used contained too much cold spiritual energy that she froze the spiritual energy tissue within her body”
“How to neutralize such impact is to use the medicine with strong hot spiritual energy”
“Information from my teacher, in this forest there are amaryllis flower plants that live near hot springs”
“I want to get the flower to be made into medicinal herbs”
This time Huang Qingyue's head was lifted looking deep into the forest. The look in his eyes showed a fighting spirit that was still burning. A body full of wounds and fatigue will not hinder it.
He then faced Tian Jie and arrived - suddenly kneeling on the ground. Both palms are laid flat on the floor and the back is bent so that the head touches the ground.
“Master Tian Jie I understand this is disrespectful because you just saved me”
“But I beg your help to find my sister-in-law and get the amaryllis flower”
“I don't care what rewards you want I will fulfill”
“At this time my family only left my mother and sister who is five years old, I do not want to lose anyone - who else”
Tian Jie only silently looked at Huang Qingyue who was ducking and begging him. From between the hairs covering Qingyue's face, there was a glint of tears streaming down her closed eyes. He thought of a possible scenario, along with the risk of accepting this request.
‘I have just become a spiritual condensation level cultivator, facing two or three spiritual cultivator level cultivators is still easy’
‘But I don't know the terrain and opponents I will face, this request is a little difficult’
Huang Qingyue became a little worried as Tian Jie did not say anything. He still nodded and did not raise his head. Tian Jie was the only hope and help he could get right now. If she missed Tian Jie's help it could be said all her efforts would end with her unhelpful mother and her sister who still could not be ascertained her condition.
‘Please , please , please’ Qingyue repeats continuously in her heart hoping Tian Jie will help.
Tian Jie let out a long breath. He never thought he would get into such a problem. He saved Qingyue just for the sake of getting information about this forest. He never thought he would get into this kind of trouble. Things that were not even thought of in Tian Jie's prediction.
‘Destiny does sometimes make us laugh because it is confused how something that is not even in the calculation can happen’
‘well, it looks like I will receive my first quest this’
‘I hope this problem can be solved easily’
Tian Jie smiled wryly and looked at the sky. He then sighed and looked at Huang Qingyue who was still ducking in front of him.
‘His love for his family is very strong’
‘She was even willing to sell herself to save her mother’
‘If other men are faced with this situation, he will definitely be very happy’
“haaah”
“well, I will help you Qingyue”
Tian Jie crouched down and held onto Huang Qingyue's two hands. He raised his body to stand from a low position. Now he could see Huang Qingyue's shocked face staring at him. Tears slightly flowed out from one of Huang Qingyue's eyes.
“Will you really help me?”
Huang Qingyue was still in doubt with Tian Jie's reply. He and Tian Jie had no close relationship and had just met. Moreover, Tian Jie was his savior. You could say his request was a little disrespectful.
Tian Jie gave a smile to Huang Qingyue. He then rubbed Huang Qingyue's head and cleared her tears.
“hmm emm, I'll try to help you”
“But I don't know if I can solve your problem”
Huang Qingyue became cheerful and shook Tian Jie's hands. He began to raise and lower his hand happily. Getting help when cornered like this gives a little relief for him.
“Thank you, Thank you, thank you”
Tian Jie stopped the handshake and gestured Huang Qingyue to calm down.
“Calm down first, We will try to solve the problem one by one”
He looked at the Lizardfolk who came approaching from the direction of the river.
“Start from dia”
