Chapter 169 Lu Ming Sends Red Envelopes! The Chat Group Boils Over!
"Anyway, you decided on the mission details."
Lu Ming was taken aback.
He then turned around, pulled Zhu Zhuqing into his arms, and made her sit on his lap.
"You little kitten, you've gone astray."
Lu Ming gently pinched her nose. "However, I love her very much."
Turn grocery shopping into a task and post it in the group chat. You can also give them rewards and boost their goodwill. It's a win-win situation.
Let's get right to it.
Lu Ming had a sudden thought and opened the chat group.
At this moment, the group was still discussing various cultivation experiences.
[Lu Tiandi]: @All members, hereby post today's group leader task.
This message immediately silenced the group chat.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the first task to begin.
This is a very important matter concerning divine rewards and administrator positions!
Even Bibi Dong, who was far away in Wuhun City, put down the official documents in her hand and sat up straight.
What exactly is this difficult task?
Is it hunting down a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast?
Or should we search for rare and precious herbs?
Or perhaps it was an assassination of a high-ranking official of an empire?
Just when everyone was mentally prepared and ready to make a big splash.
The task details popped up.
[Mission Name: Feast for the Strong]
[Task Description: I'm in a good mood today and wish to host a barbecue dinner. You need to collect a certain amount of top-tier ingredients.]
[Mission Objective 1: Find the finest aged wines.]
[Mission Objective 2: Find the most delicious soul beast meat.]
[Task Objective 3: Find the freshest and most vibrant vegetables and fruits.]
[Task Rewards: Based on the quality of the submitted ingredients, corresponding Soul Power cultivation rewards and contribution points will be issued. The highest quality ingredient will receive an additional "Soul Power Condensation Pill".]
Look at this line of text.
The entire chat group fell into an eerie silence.
Bibi Dong nearly dropped the scepter in her hand.
Qian Renxue's expression froze.
Buying groceries?
Is this what they call the group owner's task?
Is this the test on the path to God?
This is so... down-to-earth!
But the next second, the group chat erupted with unprecedented enthusiasm.
[Liu Erlong]: !!! So that's what you were planning! Just wait, I'll bring out that jar of herbal brew I've been saving for you right now!
[Poison Fairy]: Ahhh! Soul Power Condensation Pill! Is that a pill that can directly increase one level? I'll immediately have Grandpa catch the best Earth Dragon Beast! Its meat is the most tender!
[Want a sweet romance]: Vegetables? There's an extremely cold icy spring behind our college; the ice crystal fruit grown there is the most delicious! Brother Lu, wait for me!
[I have no mother]: ...Wine? There seems to be a bottle of tribute wine that is three hundred years old.
Qian Renxue gritted her teeth.
I'll give it my all for contribution points and for the sake of the administrator!
It's just stealing a bottle of wine, isn't it?
Compared to a covert mission, this is nothing!
[The Fox's Purest Feelings]: Meat... Teacher, it seems like our Spirit Hall cafeteria had some ham delivered as an offering today...
[Your Holiness]: Huliena, you dare to touch that ham?
Bibi Dong reprimanded someone in the group chat, then silently stood up and looked towards a secret room deep within the Papal Palace.
There seemed to be several jars of fine wine stored there.
Although the task was absurd.
But that reward... is really tempting.
Lu Ming couldn't help but laugh as he watched the group of goddesses arguing fiercely over a few cabbages and pieces of meat.
"It seems that tonight's banquet is very lavish."
The chat group interface in my mind kept vibrating.
[I have no mother]: [Red Envelope: 10x Tiandou Royal Tribute Wine][Red Envelope: 5x Centennial Hundred Flower Brew][Red Envelope: 5x Premium Fruit Wine]
[I don't have a mother]: These should meet your requirements. They are all from... cough, the family wine cellar, and they are all over a hundred years old.
Qian Renxue was extremely generous.
For the sake of those so-called contribution points and divine rewards, she practically emptied a corner of the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace's treasures this time.
A flash of light appeared in the lounge.
The once empty tabletop was instantly filled with all sorts of exquisite wine jars.
The rich aroma of the wine instantly filled the entire room; just one whiff was enough to make one feel the flow of soul power within their body accelerate.
Lu Ming casually picked up a jar of tribute wine bearing the royal emblem and broke the seal.
A rich and mellow aroma wafted over.
"good."
Lu Ming exclaimed in admiration, then looked at the black-clad girl who was still sitting obediently on his lap.
Zhu Zhuqing was looking up, her eyes, like black gemstones, curiously examining the wine jars that had suddenly appeared.
"Want to try some?"
Lu Ming poured a glass and held it to Zhu Zhuqing's lips.
Zhu Zhuqing did not refuse. She slightly opened her rosy lips and took a small bite from Lu Ming's hand.
The spiciness enters the throat, then transforms into a warm current that rushes straight to the lower abdomen.
Her cool and pretty face instantly flushed red.
"Is it good?" Lu Ming asked, his fingers gently stroking her delicate cheek.
Zhu Zhuqing nodded with a dazed look in her eyes, "It tastes good... but it's a little hot."
She instinctively snuggled closer to Lu Ming, the leather jacket rubbing together softly, her ample bosom pressed tightly against his chest, creating an amazingly elastic sensation.
Lu Ming smiled and tilted his head back to take a swig.
Meanwhile, notification sounds kept popping up in the group chat.
[System notification: Group member "I have no mother" has completed task objective 1 (exceeded target), rating: Perfect.]
[System notification: Rewards being distributed...]
[System Notification: Congratulations to "I Have No Mother" for gaining 500 contribution points and receiving the following reward:]
The Jade Maiden Heart Sutra (a divine-level auxiliary cultivation technique; even when practiced alone, it can triple the speed of soul power condensation and promote beauty and health).
[Want a sweet romance?]: [Red Envelope: 2x Thousand-Year Ice Spring Fish] [Red Envelope: 10x Extreme Cold Snow Shrimp]
[Want a sweet romance]: I caught this on the back hill of the academy! It's absolutely fresh! Brother Lu, you must give me a high score!
[Your Holiness]: [Red Envelope: Premium Bluefin Tuna Meat (Eternal Grade)] [Red Envelope: Rare Spirits x3]
[The Fox's Purest Feelings]: [Red Envelope: 2 x Spirit Hall Special Supply Ham]
[Poison Fairy]: [Red Envelope: 50 jin of Earth Dragon Beast Tenderloin]
The entire chat group seemed to have turned into a large-scale farmers' market.
The goddesses who are usually aloof and unapproachable are now competing with each other over a few pounds of meat and a few jars of wine.
While dealing with the increasingly clingy Zhu Zhuqing in his arms, Lu Ming checked the red envelopes in his mind and distributed rewards as he went.
...
Tian Dou City, Crown Prince's Residence.
Qian Renxue looked at the ancient jade slip that had appeared out of thin air in her hand, and her breathing became rapid.
There really is a reward!
With trembling hands, she pressed the jade slip to her forehead.
boom!
A massive flow of information instantly flooded her mind.
After a long while, Qian Renxue opened her eyes, her golden pupils filled with shock.
"This cultivation technique..."
She tried running the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra.
In just one cycle, she felt that the somewhat impure soul power in her body had become purer, and the surrounding earth energy surged into her body like a funnel.
