Original God: Start with Qiuqiu, become stronger with food and beauties

Chapter 148 SS-level commission

Luo Xiaoyue, Huang Long Yidou, the client, and the servant quickly arrived at the entrance of Chenyu Valley. Upon arrival, an eerie aura washed over them, as if countless eyes were watching them from the shadows. The surroundings were unusually quiet, so still that they could even hear each other's breathing. This stillness involuntarily stirred a sense of dread, and their scalps tingled.

"Why does this place feel so eerie? Is there any danger?" The client couldn't help but mutter, his voice full of anxiety and worry.

Arawaki Ichito patted his chest and said loudly: "What are you afraid of with me here! I am the boss of the Arawaki faction and I will protect your safety!" He smiled confidently, trying to bring some peace of mind to everyone.

Luo Xiaoyue cautiously observed her surroundings, secretly gathering elemental power in her hands, ready to deal with any possible danger. She turned to look at Luo Kun and asked, "Uncle Luo Kun, you've at least learned some skills to deal with monsters. Why are you giving them all back?" There was a hint of blame and helplessness in her tone.

At that moment, a vast swarm of monsters suddenly surged from all directions. As if drawn by some force, they quickly gathered. There were savage-looking Hilichurls, charging forward with clubs raised and screaming, their eyes gleaming with ferocity. Then there were the gigantic Rock-Helmed Hilichurl Kings, whose heavy strides made the ground tremble slightly, like an earthquake. These monsters exuded a powerful aura, a sense of invisible pressure.

Undeterred, Aratake Ichito shouted, "Watch me!" He brandished his mace and charged into the horde of monsters like a ferocious demon. He leaped high, his mace whirring and crashing down upon the monsters. A Hilichurl was unable to dodge and was sent flying, falling to the ground.

"Haha, come on, you little minions!" Aragaki Ichido shouted loudly while fighting.

Not to be outdone, Luo Xiaoyue harnessed the power of the Eye of God to manipulate the elements. With a wave of her hands, a gust of wind blew out, knocking the group of hillbillies to the ground. Then, with a flick of her finger, flames shot up from the fire sticks on the ground, consuming the monsters.

Luo Kun watched on, stunned. He had originally been pessimistic about Aramaki Ichido, believing him to be nothing more than a reckless warrior. Now, he couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Aramaki Ichido is so formidable!"

Arata Ichito heard what his client said and shouted back, "Well, I'm awesome, right?"

Luo Kun: "It's really amazing. You really can't judge a person by his appearance."

Luo Kun stood beside the goods and nodded with satisfaction: "I shouldn't have doubted the young lady's judgment. The man she found is so reliable."

Luo Xiaoyue: “?” I think I heard something just now?

While Luo Xiaoyue and Huang Long Yidu were busy dealing with those monsters, a new batch of monsters came from the other side.

Luo Kun said helplessly: "Hey, uncle, it's not easy to deal with this!"

Luo Xiaoyue responded: "Figure it out yourself!"

Though He Nai lacked the Divine Eye, he relied on his skill to swiftly and accurately defeat numerous Hilichurls. His agility and swift movements were evident, each punch and kick imbued with immense power. Furthermore, he displayed astonishing skill, grasping the Hilichurl's axe with two fingers and effortlessly wrestling it away, using it to dispatch all the monsters on his side. The entire process was so seamless and natural that Aratake Ichito, who was watching from the side, was stunned.

Arata Ichito: "With these skills, you can become a high-ranking adventurer, right?"

Luo Xiaoyue shouted, "Don't be careless, there's still that Rock Helmet Hill King!"

The Rock Helm Hilo King roared and lunged at Arataki Ito. Arataki Ito threw Ah Chou, hitting the Rock Helm Hilo King's leg. The pain made the Rock Helm Hilo King attack even more frantically.

Hillock Rock Helmet King: "Ah-hum!"

Arataki Ichito nimbly dodged the attacks and shouted, "Xiaoyue, come and help me! I'm out of mana!"

Luo Xiaoyue immediately responded: "Here it comes!" She clasped her hands together, and a powerful water elemental force gushed out and rushed towards the Rock Helmet Hill King.

"No... aren't you a wind elemental?"

Luo Xiaoyue swung her sword briskly, eliminating the other disruptive enemies in just two or three strokes. "The sword technique my master taught me allows me to utilize the other four elements that can be diffused by the wind element. I happen to have essential oils stored in all of them. Doesn't that make sense?"

"That makes perfect sense! Let's clear these little ones out first. Once I've gathered enough energy, I'll finish this guy off instantly!" Aratake Ito dodged the Rock Helm King's attack and crushed a smaller Hilichul with a single blow. Absorbing the elemental energy, a vast mass of rock gathered in his hands. He teleported directly before the Hilichul King, swiftly swinging his mace, constantly repelling it. He seized the opportunity, exerting all his strength, leaped up, and struck the Hilichul King on the head with his mace. The Hilichul King collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Arata Ichido panted heavily and looked at Luo Kun proudly: "What do you think? My strength is not exaggerated!" He put his hands on his hips, a confident smile on his face. Sweat slid down his cheeks, but it did not reduce his majesty at all.

After having his servants inspect the cargo, Luo Kun's face was filled with admiration. "I was wrong before. Your fighting ability is actually on par with the young lady. It really opened my eyes!" Luo Kun stepped forward, his eyes full of admiration. "Brother Huang Long, seeing you so brave and fearless among the monsters just now, I was shocked and delighted."

Aratagi Ichito sounded a bit weak: "You're not bad either, uncle. You can hold the axe with two fingers, isn't that amazing?"

Luo Kun: "These are just some mediocre skills I learned when I was young. They are not up to par."

Luo Xiaoyue smiled and said, "Okay, let's continue on our way. Qiaoying Manor is just ahead." She gently brushed away the sweat-soaked hair on her forehead, her eyes filled with determination.

Huang Long Yidou waved his hand and said, "Let's go! I can't wait to go to Qiaoying Manor and take a look! I have to say, Liyue is really big."

Luo Kun quickly responded: "Yes, let's set off quickly and try to get there as soon as possible so that we can have a good rest."

The group set out on their journey again. As they walked, Ara Taki Ichito said, "Uncle Luo Kun, although you are quite capable, please don't underestimate me on this journey. If we encounter any danger later, I can still easily handle it."

Luo Kun smiled and nodded: "That's right, with Brother Huang Long and the eldest lady here, I feel at ease on this journey."

Luo Xiaoyue snorted softly: "Stop talking nonsense and focus on your journey."

Arata Ichido stuck out his tongue and said no more, but he quickened his pace.

The sunlight shone on them, casting long shadows, and they walked forward firmly towards Qiaoying Manor.
