Who is it?

Who exactly is it?

They actually took advantage of his seclusion to cultivate...

They've turned his yard into this mess.

"Hey chubby kid, yes, I'm talking to you, come here."

Gao Yunyi stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking at the chubby boy who kept watching but dared not approach, and waved.

The chubby boy has been experiencing both pain and joy these past few days.

His aunt hired several tutors for him, who took turns teaching him every day. He had no time for himself and was suffering terribly, even looking quite thin.

But the thought that his studies would impress his older brother made him very happy.

So no matter how hard he studied, he would always find some time to come to the small courtyard that originally belonged to him.

Although he couldn't see his older brother, he was still very happy.

Thinking it was another day he wouldn't see his older brother, the chubby boy only glanced at him from afar before preparing to leave.

But to my surprise, my older brother came out and waved for me to come over.

The chubby boy immediately took his short legs, supporting his round body, and ran over nervously and excitedly.

But as soon as they got close,

He was then lightly punched on the head by Gao Yunyi.

"Tell me, did you turn my yard into this?"

Gao Yunyi looked at him with a fierce expression, as if he were looking at a naughty brat.

This is clearly my yard.

The chubby boy held his head in his hands, shaking his head with a pitiful expression.

"Big brother, it wasn't me."

Gao Yunyi looked at him with suspicion.

"It really wasn't you?"

The chubby boy shook his head vigorously, raising his finger slightly.

I swear.

Gao Yunyi then believed him.

"Then go and tidy up the yard properly, especially those vegetable patches. Plant more chives; I like to eat them."

"But... but I still need to go to school."

The chubby boy stammered, sounding embarrassed.

Gao Yunyi was taken aback upon hearing this, then said disdainfully.

"You have land but you don't farm it, what's the point of studying? You good-for-nothing, get back to work."

After hearing the elder brother's order,

The chubby boy was overjoyed and immediately ran into the yard to find his little hoe.

Compared to learning,

He prefers farming.

Seeing the crops take root, sprout, blossom, and bear fruit in his hands always gives him a great sense of accomplishment.

And so this scene appeared in the courtyard.

Gao Yunyi sat in a rocking chair, fanning himself and drinking tea.

The chubby boy squatted in the vegetable garden, turning over the soil and sowing seeds.

The scene was warm and beautiful.

After the chubby boy finished sowing all the chive seeds and watering them, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and a satisfied and happy smile appeared on his chubby little face.

But then, as if remembering something, the smile on his face froze.

His chubby little face was full of hesitation, yet he seemed to have made up his mind about something.

Then he walked up to his older brother, holding the small hoe, and spoke weakly.

"Big... Big brother... can I ask you for a favor?"

Gao Yunyi, without even opening his eyes, asked, "What is it?"

"Could you please help my aunt?" the chubby boy asked, his head bowed and his voice pleading.

What happened to your aunt?

The image of that backflip and that cat's meow instantly flashed through Gao Yunyi's mind, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

"I heard from my teacher that a lot of soldiers have come from outside the city to kill my aunt. Brother, can you save her?"

The chubby boy mustered his courage and said.

Gao Yunyi stopped waving his fan, not because of the chubby boy's words, but because...

Bite--

[Task: The Heir of Prince of Qin's Request.]

[Mission Requirements: Help Eldest Princess Xiao Zhaohuang repel the 100,000-strong army outside the Capital.]

[Quest Reward: Experience Points +3500, Item:???]

[Would you accept?]

Long-awaited system notification sound

The long-awaited task pop-up window

Gao Yunyi had almost forgotten that he even had a task function.

He wondered if it was because his level was getting higher and higher, but it felt like he hadn't encountered any missions in a long time.

I didn't expect to trigger a mission again today.

Could it be the luck boost from the title of "God of Gamblers"?

In short, this little guy got a good deal.

See, it has played a huge role today.

Um?

Etc...

This task requirement is so strange.

Shocked back?

Not a repulsion?

So, does that mean I can't kill anymore?

That won't do.

His newly upgraded +6 Star-Pattern Sword hasn't even been quenched yet.

Gao Yunyi stroked his chin.

Instead of immediately accepting, he looked at his younger brother with a meaningful gaze and spoke with a hint of persuasion.

"One hundred thousand rebels have come from outside the city. They want to kill your aunt, and the best way to save her is to kill them all, don't you think?"

Looking at his older brother's strange eyes and listening to his seductive voice, the chubby boy was about to nod when, as if he had thought of something, he shook his round little head like a rattle drum.

"No, no, those outside the city aren't rebels. My teacher said they're all loyal border troops to the court. If we kill them all, Yunnan will definitely descend into chaos."

Gao Yunyi::"..."

Damn, kids really shouldn't study.

After reading books, they're not so easily fooled.

Gao Yunyi originally wanted to try and see if the requirements of the mission would change if he could change the little fat boy's mind.

He'll not only get the mission rewards, but also reap a huge amount of experience points—a win-win situation!

Surprisingly, this seemingly simple-minded chubby boy suddenly became quite bright after only a few days of schooling.

He lost hundreds of thousands of experience points for nothing.

Although he could refuse the mission and simply slaughter the entire army of 100,000, he would lose a respectable reason for doing so.

He comes from the Righteous Sect.

It is important to have a legitimate reason for a campaign.

If there is no legitimate reason,

Isn't that no different from those evil and crooked paths?

Hahaha...

What a load of hypocrisy.

Gao Yunyi was amused by his own thoughts, but in the end he still chose to accept the mission.

Now that the task has been accepted,

Then it's time to get down to business.

Gao Yunyi slowly stood up from the rocking chair.

With a gentle lift of the hand,

Countless streaks of purple light converged wildly in the courtyard, lightning crackled and electric snakes danced, and then transformed into a terrifying giant sword of purple light, which shot out of the city.

Then, he spoke calmly to the chubby boy who was filled with fear and trepidation because he had refused his older brother's request.

"Take good care of my chives here. Your big brother will be right back."

After saying that,

He then stepped onto a flying sword shrouded in rolling purple qi and crackling with lightning.

With a whoosh, it disappeared into the courtyard.

The surging airflow not only knocked the chubby boy to the ground, but also made him roll several times before coming to a stop.

When he got up from the ground again,

Then I saw that my eldest brother was no longer in the courtyard.

That's great! My older brother agreed to his request and went to rescue my aunt.

The chubby boy was overjoyed and immediately bent down to pick up the small hoe that had fallen to the ground. He was deeply moved and felt his whole body filled with strength.

He wanted to fill the entire yard with chives.

Let the eldest brother eat his fill.
