Life Changing System

Song Ma Xiao had to endure the tremendous pain since he did not die immediately from the blow. The pain was too excruciating to put into words.

With a blade pierced through his heart, a normal man would have died on the spot. He was still alive because he was a formation realm cultivator.

However, it did not mean that he would not die. It just took longer for him to die.

Song Ma Xiao was full of fear. It was only normal since he was about to die!

It was impossible for Song Ma Xiao to not be scared of death when everyone was.

From the look in his face, other than pain and fear, there was also grief!

He’d just realised now that he and Wu Ya should not have gotten involved with Bai Chen. It would not have turned out like this if they did not.

Song Ma Xiao felt like he wanted to cry, but he did not have a single tear.

He really wanted to turn back time to change what he had done.

However, it was unfortunate that he did not have the ability to turn back time. He could only face his fate.

“AGHHHH!”

Suddenly, Song Ma Xiao screamed at the top of his lungs. Then, his voice was cut short. His face went stiff. The spark of life in his eyes was extinguished. The hand that was holding the sword dropped along with his body.

Blood gushed out when Bai Chen’s flying sword was pulled out of his body.

Thud!

Song Ma Xiao’s lifeless body dropped down in front of Bai Chen, the person who had taken his life.

Having been pierced through the heart, it was obvious that Song Ma Xiao was dead.

Death was a frightening thing, but it was also a way to be free—free from the cruel path of cultivators!

Bai Chen’s facial expression was not happy, even though he’d finally killed Song Ma Xiao.

How could he be happy? His left shoulder had been slashed deeply. Blood still spurted from the wound.

Ahhh!

Blood gushed out when he pulled the sword out. His face showed pain. He even let out a painful exclamation softly.

It was the first time he’d receive a wound this large.

However, the wound was not severe. Still, Bai Chen would not be able to move as freely as he normally did for quite some time.

Actually, he was planning to do more sub-missions after killing Song Ma Xiao since he had not done any for three months.

He could not do them anymore now. Bai Chen decided to wait until he was completely healed.

Once he’d decided, Bai Chen did not want to waste his time. He looked at Song Ma Xiao’s corpse for a little while before searching through his belongings, just in case he had some money or any other good items.

Bai Chen got a bag with 2000 gold coins and three old talismans.

“Not bad.” Bai Chen could not help but smile. There was quite a large amount of coins.

Now, he had almost 4000 gold coins.

After putting the coins into the dimension ring, Bai Chen looked at the three old talismans in his hands.

“Flying pin talismans?” he muttered.

It was obvious that he recognised them. They were flying pin talismans.

Even though it was a low-grade item that was most effective at the nascent and foundation levels and had a rather minor effect at the formation level…

It was still a talisman, so its properties were naturally not ordinary. If used at the right time, even a formation realm cultivator could be killed.

“This is not bad.” Bai Chen put them into the dimension ring. Then, he decided to go back to Xin Ye city, to his rental house.

He did not think that he would be facing all these unexpected events to the point that he had not had a chance to go back to the house at all after living in it for only several days.

Song Ma Xiao and his wife were to blame for this. If they had not picked a fight with him, he could have gone back to the house a long time ago.

However, Bai Chen had gained quite a bit. He had gotten two flying swords, the core, 2000 gold coins, and flying pin talismans.

A week later, in the rented residences area

Bai Chen was inside his rental house. It was not the same house as before since he had been gone for three months and the house had been passed on to someone else. Bai Chen could not help but rent another one.

His wound was almost completely healed.

Bai Chen had been focusing on his recovery and meditation in the past week. He meditated to absorb the celestial qi and he’d finally stepped into the secondary formation level!

This was thanks to the core of the beast that he had gotten from the blue spark fox.

By absorbing the formation beast’s core, Bai Chen had quickly reached the next stage.

“I’m completely healed,” Bai Chen muttered. Then, he stood up from the meditation mat and thought about doing the next sub-mission.

He opened up the sub-mission window.

---

Sub-mission: Collect 3 kinds of herbs

Description: You have to collect 3 kinds of herb from the hundred-beast forest by yourself.

Reward for success: Win 140 points + 140 magical bonuses

---

Bai Chen frowned a little after reading the details.

There was no green guiding arrow for him this time since it stated clearly that he had to search for them by himself.

From the memories that he’d received, whenever it said that he had to do the mission by himself, he would get no help from the Life Changing System at all.

“Whatever. At least I know a place where low-grade herbs grow in that forest.”

Bai Chen shook his head a little and walked out of the house.

His destination was not the hundred-beast forest, but the Tien Nan trade association.

The reason why he wanted to go to the trade association first was because he wanted to buy an herb box that could keep the herbs fresh for a long time. It would be a lot better than the dimension ring.
